Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A device for holding tubes constructed of flexible and collapsible metallic foil, during filling of the tube with paste-like material, the device including a rigid sleeve with a supporting shoulder at the bottom and an oblong interior configuration at the top, slots in the sleeve wall adjacent the top and extending transverse to the axis, and elongate spring retainers in the slots and extending peripherally of the sleeve.
  • Such collapsible flexible tubes may be filled and then processed to be ready for packing in cartons and shipment to the customer, on a turret machine which carries the tubes to a number of stations where various functions are performed in relation to the tube.
  • the metallic foil tubes are filled with the dispensing end and cap thereon in a depending orientation and with the open bottom end facing upwardly.
  • the open end of the tube will pass beneath a filling spout, will be pressed together so as to be closed, whereupon the flexible and the collapsible metallic foil tube assumes a flat configuration at its end and the intermediate portion of the tube which actually contains the paste-like material has an oblong or elliptical shape which merges into a cylindrical shape adjacent the dispensing end; and subsequently the tube being filled passes through a number of stations wherein the tube is rolled downwardly and then firmly clamped shut so as to form an efficient closure requiring subsequent dispensing of the paste-like material by removing the cap at the opposite end.
  • the dispensing end of the collapsible tube retains a substantially circular or cylindrical form as it passes from one station to another on the turret
  • the opposite end and most of the length of the tube changes from its original cylindrical shape to an oblong or elliptical shape, and this change in shape must be accommodated in order to prevent unnecessarily denting or deforming the tube.
  • the present invention is a holder for such flexible and collapsible sleeves to accommodate the different shapes that various portions of the tube take during the filling procedure. While the metallic foil tube is in cylindrical condition, it is firmly held in a predetermined position so that the open end of the foil tube is in the correct position during the filling step, and further so that when the filling is completed and the open end of the tube is to be flattened for closing, it will be in the correct position so that automatic equipment can efficiently engage and close the open end of the tube.
  • the major portion of the length of the metallic foil tube has its shape changed from cylindrical to a somewhat flattened shape so that in cross section, the foil tube will have an oblong or elliptical shape.
  • This oblong or elliptical shape is accommodated without producing any dents in the foil tube.
  • the tube continues to be held against any transverse movement, either in the direction of the major axis of the elliptical shape or in the direction of the minor axis of the elliptical shape.
  • This substantially rigid positioning and holding of the metallic foil tube is necessary in order to allow automatic machinery to crease and fold the flattened end of the foil tube as this tube is rolled downwardly to form an efficient and permanent closure.
  • the filled flattened closed tube is to be removed from the turret and, of course, the tube must be in proper position so that the foil tube can be readily gripped.
  • the holder for the foil tube is formed of a rigid sleeve having a shoulder at the bottom interior to support the dispensing end of the foil tube.
  • the sleeve interior has a substantially cylindrical shape adjacent the bottom shoulder and the interior has cylindrical segments opposite each other and extending upwardly along the sleeve interior toward the top.
  • the sleeve interior has wall portions opposite each other and between said cylindrical segments, which are cut away into an enlarged configuration which is oblong in cross-sectional shape so as to accommodate the oblong or elliptical shape of the metallic foil tube.
  • the upper portion of the rigid sleeve has transverse slots through the inner periphery in which lie spring retainers to engage and retain the metallic foil tube against transverse movement.
  • the tube While the metallic foil tube is cylindrical in shape, the tube is held against transverse movement in the sleeve by the cylindrical segments of the interior periphery.
  • the shape of the metallic foil tube is changed, from cylindrical to an oblong or elliptical shape, the metallic foil tube substantially withdraws away from the cylindrical segments of the interior sleeve periphery, and is retained away from these cylindrical segments by the spring retainers; and when the metallic foil tube changes from its cylindrical shape to the oblong or elliptical shape, the corresponding elliptical portions of the sleeve interior engage and retain the metallic foil tube in position and the springs retain the tube against transverse movement in the direction of the minor axis of the elliptical shape.
  • FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a turret in a machine for filling flexible and collapsible tubes and incorporating the tube holder therein.
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation view of a tube holder with a portion of the turret illustrated in vertical section.
  • FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the tube holder.
  • FIG. 4 is a detailed section view taken at 4-4 in FIG. 3 and illustrating the shape of the flexible tube after the tube has been filled and pinched into aclosed position.
  • FIG. 5 is a detailed section view taken approximately at 5-5 of FIG. 3 and also illustrating in dotted lines the shape of the flexible tube after the tube has been filled and pinched into a closed condition.
  • FIG. 6 is a transverse detail section view taken apporximately at 66 in FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 7 is a detail section view taken approximately at 7-7 in FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 8 is a detail section view, similar to FIG. 6, and illustrating a modified form of the holder.
  • FIG. 9 is a detail section view illustrating a second modified form of the apparatus.
  • the tube holders 10 are illustrated in FIG. 1 to be mounted upon a turret plate 11 which is a part of a filling and packing machine for filling the flexible and collapsible tubes for holding a paste-like material.
  • Such tubes are constructed of various types of material, but oftentimes are formed of extruded heavy gauge metallic foil; and such tubes may also be formed of molded plastic.
  • FIG. 2 such tubes T are supplied in cylindrical form so that the tube has a substantially circular cross-sectional shape. The lower end of the tube T is closed and is provided with a short and threaded dispensing spout to which a cap C has already been applied. The opposite end of the tube is completely open and unobstructed.
  • the tube holder 10 includes a rigid sleeve 12 which may be formed of substantially rigid molded plastic such as high density polyethylene, and the exterior periphery of the sleeve 12 is substantially cylindrical so as to fit snugly in any one of the mounting bosses 11.1 of the turret 11.
  • the turret 11 in one type of machine, has twelve such bosses 11.1 so that the tube holder and the tubes being filled and closed will stop at each of twelve stations as the turret revolves.
  • the rigid sleeve 12 has a plurality of transversely outwardly projecting flanges 13, 14 and 15 adjacent the upper portion of the sleeve to define peripheral grooves 16 and 17 therebetween to confine spring retainers l8 and 19 which in this embodiment are annular metal coil springs but could be formed from rubber or plastic O-rings or endless bands.
  • the flange 13 also defines a ledge 13.1 which rests upon the turret 11 adjacent the opening through boss 11.1.
  • the rigid sleeve 12 has a peripheral sidewall which varies in internal configuration from bottom to top.
  • the internal periphery 20.1 at the bottom of the sidewall 20 is substantially cylindrical or circular in shape.
  • the internal periphery has an oblong crosssectional configuration.
  • the distance across the length of the oblong configuration at 20.3 in FIG. 5 is substantially greater than the distance across the width of the oblong configuration at 20.3 illustrated in FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the distance across the length of the oblong configuration at 20.3 in FIG. 5
  • the sidewall 20 progressively decreases in thickness toward the top of the sidewall, and the internal periphery of the sidewall tapers convergently in a downward direction in portions of the sidewall as illustrated in FIG. 5.
  • This oblong shape and tapering configuration of the internal periphery of the sidewall will accommodate and very closely approximate the shape of the flexible tube T when the upper portion T' of the tube is flattened and pinched together to close the tube as illustrated in dotted lines in FIGS. 4 and 5. It should be understood that the condition of the tube T as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 is the first step in a multi-step closing operation during which the upper flattened portion T of the tube is progressively creased and folded downwardly to form a permanent closure.
  • an inwardly protruding annular flange 21 defines a tapering or sloping shoulder surface 21.] for supporting the correspondingly tapering closure wall T" of the tube.
  • the flange 21 protrudes only a short distance inwardly so as to define a large opening 22 through which the cap C moves when the tube T is loaded into the holder 10 and subsequently removed therefrom.
  • the sidewall 20 of the sleeve 12 is provided with a number of transverse slots 16.1, 16.2, 17.1 and 17.2 providing communication between the interior of the sleeve 20 and the grooves 16 and 17, respectively.
  • the slots 17.1 and 17.2 are disposed opposite each other, and the slots 16.1 and 16.2 are also disposed opposite each other, but transversely and obliquely with respect to slots 17.1 and 17.2.
  • segments of the springs 18 and 19 protrude through the sleeve wall 20 to lie transversely of the sleeve adjacent the internal periphery for engaging the tube T and being deformed thereby when the tube is inserted into the sleeve for gripping and holding the sleeve against transverse movement.
  • the retainer springs 18 and 19 engage the somewhat flattened tube T as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 to prevent transverse wobbling or movement of the tube T in a direction across the width of the oblong shape of the internal periphery 20.3, and, accordingly, the slots 16.1, 16.2, 17.1 and 17.2 are arranged so that the segments of springs 18 and 19 which protrude into the internal periphery of the sleeve converge in acute angles at the ends of the oblong configuration of the internal periphery.
  • the tube T when somewhat flattened as illustrated in FIGS.
  • the springs 18 and 19 are particularly important for preventing transverse displacement or movement of the tube T to the left or right as illustrated in FIG. 4.
  • the shape of the interior periphery of the sidewall 20 of the sleeve also is effective in restraining the tube T against transverse movement.
  • the lower portion 20.1 of the inner periphery of the sidewall is cylindrical about the axial center line L of the sleeve 12
  • arcuate segments 201a of the inner periphery of the wall 20 which extend entirely from the bottom to the top of wall 20 are also cylindrical about the center line L.
  • These arcuate segments 20.1a are disposed diametrically across from each other, and are sufficiently broad so that the cylindrical outer surface of the tube T, as it is first inserted into the holder 10, is illustrated in FIG.
  • the top of the sleeve 12 is beveled at 23 adjacent the open top of the internal periphery in order to readily receive the tubes during insertion of the tubes.
  • the bevel 23 extends around a substantial portion of the periphery of the sleeve 12, but is unnecessary adjacent the ends of the oblong interior configuration.
  • the sidewall 20 of the sleeve had an elongate upright slot 24 therethrough and extending upwardly from the lower end substantially to the lowermost external flange 13.
  • the slot 24 permits access into the interior of the sleeve 12, but does not materially weaken the sleeve because the interior flange 21 is completely annular and continuous around the entire periphery.
  • the holder is indicated in general by numeral 10.1 and is constructed substantially the same as holder 10 illustrated in FIGS. 1 7.
  • the holder 10.1 instead of having two separate retainer springs protruding slightly into the sleeve interior through access slots at two different elevations along the length of the sleeve, the holder 10.1 has four separate slots 17, all lying in a single plane at one location along the length of the holder so as to receive a single peripheral spring 19 and thereby allow the sides of spring 19' to protrude through the sleeve sidewall at four different locations and grip the tube periphery to restrain the tube against tranverse movement in the holder.
  • the slots 17 are formed so that the remaining sidewall 20' exists only in column or post-like structures adjacent the ends of the slots 17 for guiding and retaining the spring 19' in position.
  • the spring 19 lies between adjacent flanges, one of which, 14', is illustrated in FIG. 8.
  • FIG. 9 The form of the invention illustrated in FIG. 9 is also similar in most respects to the holder 10 in the form of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 1 7 and similar to the holder 10.1 of FIG. 8.
  • the holder 10.2 of FIG. 9 also has four separate slots 17" lying in a single plane and formed entirely through the sidewall 20" at a location between adjacent flanges, one of which, 14", is illustrated.
  • Retaining means 19" to retain the tube T against transverse movement in the holder R in this form of the invention, formed of substantially rigid rods of such a size as to lie in the slots 17" and protrude through the slots bearing against the sides of tube T.
  • the rods 25 may be formed of any tough and durable material such as high density polyethylene, nylon, Teflon, or a rust resistant metal.
  • the rods 25 are formed of a light weight material which has a minimum of inertia and is readily moved by the rather light weight tubes T when the tubes are inserted.
  • the rods 25 are bent intermediate their ends so as to lie in and protrude through adjacent grooves 17", and the opposite ends of each of the rods 25 is disposed adjacent the corresponding ends of the other rod.
  • the rods are interconnected with each other by tension springs 26 which permit the rods 25 to be moved apart, but which continuously urge the rods 25 inwardly toward each other and toward the tube that may be held by the holder 10.2.
  • this invention provides a new and novel holder for flexible and collapsible tubes during filling of the tubes and during the successive steps required for closing the tubes and forming a permanent closure at the end of the tube through which the tube is filled.
  • the holder sleeve accommodates the tube in cylindrical form and adequately holds it against transverse movement within the sleeve so that the filling machinery will be able to place the paste-like material into the tube.
  • the holder also is shaped to accommodate the shape of the tube after it has been transformed from a cylindrical or circular cross section to a flattened or generally oblong or elliptical cross section.
  • Peripheral springs are provided for engaging the periphery of the tube at several locations for restraining the tube against transverse movement in the holder sleeve.
  • the tubes may be readily and easily inserted and removed and will be accurately held for the performance of the various filling and closing functions that must be performed in connection with the tube during the filling closing stages.
