Definitions
- the invention now advocated consists of a candy wrapping machine with stick, among the machines that have means for aligning candies, wrapping applications and sealing them.
- This invention characterizes the incorporation of a series of novel devices, such as, among others, a positioning system for stick candies, a system for unwinding, cutting and feeding of wrappers, as well as another one for feeding these, the sealing of the same through hot air and another rejection of poorly wrapped candies.
- the high static load of the wrapping part obtained from the plastic film coil is conditioned by the fact of the high electrical charge generated by the continuous stops and sudden starts of the unwinding and wrapping system.
- the invention object of the present specification refers to a candy wrapping machine with stick, among those machines that have means for aligning candies, feeding and application of wrappers and sealing of these, on themselves and on The candy stick.
- This invention characterizes the incorporation of a set of devices that are enumerated, from a positioning system of the candies with stick, prior to the continuous feeding of these to the wrapping area, consisting of a well pneumatic, electronic pusher or mechanical, which performs fine positioning of the end of the candy.
- the feeder plate has very wide peripheral recesses, much larger than the caramel, which receive the latter by impact and drag of the radial rod and regardless of the size of the latter, thereby avoiding the change of plate or the encasquillado to the appropriate dimensions of the same plate, to adapt its recesses to the dimensions of the type of candy to be wrapped, with the consequent saving of time in the changes of rolls, as well as avoiding the possible obstructions derived from a bad fit of the candy or a dimensional defect of this.
- this fine external positioning of the plate is arranged, after the ramp up to the candy feeding belt by means of the pusher, front and quick adjustment depending on the selected format, which positions the candy precisely and to the predetermined extent, with respect to the exact point at which it must receive tangentially to the wrap in the axial extension of the stick, on the side of the free end of the candy.
- the blade is rotatable, for continuous cutting purposes, as is the feed that has no more stops than those produced by the lack of material to be wrapped.
- both the stops and the starts are soft and almost imperceptible, due to the arrangement of sinusoidal ramps that cover about 40% of the envelope, so that the envelope will remain perfectly centered, in its positioning in front of the candy.
- the diameter of the drive roller is completely independent of the correct supply of wrappers, so that they do not affect the logical wear of the operation, not affecting the cutting and positioning of wrappers.
- An alarm system indicates that the photocell is defective, or that the macula insertion band is not facing it.
- the machine can also be stopped due to obstruction of envelopes in the feeder group, thanks to the arrangement of the independent servomotors that control the entire system, the one that acts on the paper drag axis and the one that acts on the axis of the knife.
- This network is completed by a network, arranged in the electrical panel, through which both the axis control and the PLC and the operator touch terminal are communicated.
- the wrap feeding system is mainly characterized by preventing the continuous and habitual obstruction of the guide combs by the wraps, based on incorporating on a side, instead of one of the combs, a piece designed with a certain roughness faced by a mouth of a conventional ionization means, in conjunction with a pressurized air drive, the positively ionized driven air being found, in order to neutralize the negative electrostatic charge of the envelope, while maintaining the air itself totally flat and vertical to this one and, also collaborating this air in the advance of the envelope.
- This construction provides the additional advantage of allowing the unobstructed passage of the adhesive tapes that extend the tail of a wrapping coil with the beginning of the next one, as there are no guide combs that would inevitably retain this joint.
- Another novel system is the sealing of the envelopes by hot air, once the caramel has been conventionally wrapped, with the known folds accumulated on the section of the stick next to it.
- This seal is completely static, in order to avoid the continuous ruptures of the conventional ones and replaces the known two-way mobile electrical resistors with an appropriate configuration of the nozzle or discharge nozzle of a conventional means, hot air generator, which It has a cross-sectional crescent section.
- the hot air is passed through the slotted sealing pliers, which allow the direct impact of the air on the wrapper, with an externally regulated intensity on the heating equipment, whereby this wrapper already closed on the caramel is sealed.
- this circumstance applies to the positioning of the manufacturer's brand of the product in the environment of the spherical caramel cap in the area of the internal axial extension of the stick, so that a deviation in a certain number of mm from the central zone of The closed wrap on this candy is considered a rejection. It should not be forgotten that these deviations are not only aesthetic and of commercial value but that they affect the better or worse sealing of caramel in the opposite area, that is, on the side of the stick.
- a pneumatic, electric or mechanical actuator is available, for the purpose of deflecting the rejections to a different channel from the packaging line so that, by acting in accordance with the instructions of an automaton, an extreme pusher advances which obliquely cover the main channel in a fork zone or drop a clapper to the passage of the caramel to be rejected and then raise it again, closing the bottom of the feed channel to the packaging line.
- the procedure followed by the system consists in analyzing the gap that exists between the macula of the envelope and the relative position of the encoder, thereby determining the positional error existing in real time, so that the detected error is compared with the default by the packer and, depending on its magnitude reject or not each piece.
- the last system consists of the automatic change of coils, so that the machine reduces the speed by conventional detection of the vicinity of the end of a wrapper sheet, for example, by a conventional sensor and proceeds to conventionally glue the initial end of the new coil, for example, with an adhesive tape, as well as to cut the excess end of the first coil, which also passes without problems through the feeding system.
- the machine has automatic control means of its operation, by the operator and others remotely through a modem.
- Figure 1 shows a schematic plan arrangement of the conventional means of distribution and alignment of candies with stick to which the positioning system of the invention applies.
- Figure 2 is a perspective detail of this positioning system.
- Figure 3 shows a schematic perspective of the drag and cut servomechanisms of the continuous sheet of envelopes, as well as the means of macula detection and unit cutting of the envelopes.
- Figure 4 shows, also schematically and in perspective, the means for feeding candy wrappers.
- Figure 5 shows two views of the sealing means of the caramel wrap, the upper one in plan and the lower one in elevation, both schematically.
- Figure 6 is the defective wrapped candy rejection system, in the two positions described in the preferred example.
- Figure 7 is the arrangement of the automatic change of wrapping reels, with the means for connecting tails to reed heads, at the time of substituting one for the other.
- the present invention relates to a candy wrapping machine with stick, machines with means for aligning candies, feeding and wrapping and sealing of these, essentially characterized by the incorporation of a positioning system of the candies with stick (1), prior to the continuous feeding of these to the wrapping area, consisting of a well pneumatic, electronic or mechanical pusher, which performs the fine positioning of the end of the candy; It also has a system of unwinding, cutting and feeding of envelopes (2), provided with mechanisms and means for dragging and cutting the envelopes; as well as another system of feeding (3) of envelopes, by curtain of ionized air; a sealing system (4) of caramel stick wrappers by hot air; hot air pressure control means and discarded wrap baffles (5); a rejection system (6) of poorly wrapped candies and an automatic coil change system (7).
- the feeder plate (1.1) of the positioning system (1) has very wide recesses (1.1.1), receivers of any size of candy with stick (8) that, once positioned on the feeding belt (1.2 ), by means of the front pusher (1.3.1) of the cylinder (1.3), it locates the caramel (8) to the preset size, the pusher (1.3.1) being synchronized to the working rate of the machine.
- the system of unwinding, cutting and feeding of envelopes (2) which has progressive ramps of acceleration and decellation, sinusoidal and covering about 40% of centering of the envelope, a servo motor (2.1) for driving the feeder rollers ( 2.2) sheet (9), by virtue of the correction instructions with great precision of the macula (9.1) of the envelope (9.2), by means of the photocell of the sensor (2,3) of macules, connected to a system for a faulty photocell alarm or deviation of the macula insertion band, plus another independent servo motor (2.4), for driving the roller (2.5) of the rotating blade (2.5.1), the rollers (2.2) being independent of the supply correct wrapping (9.2), synchronizing the servomotors (2.1) and (2.4) the system (2) with the rest of the machine systems and being removable from the system (2), temporarily, to adjust specific mechanisms, completing this system (2) a network, arranged in the electrical panel, through which both the axis control and the PLC and the operator touch terminal are communicated integrally.
- the envelope feeding system (3) is characterized by incorporating a piece (3.1) with a certain roughness that faces the mouth of an ionizer (3.2), in conjunction with a positively ionized pressurized air supply (3.3) , which neutralizes the negative electrostatic charge of the envelope (9.2) and keeps it completely flat and vertical, as well as collaborates in its advancement.
- the balance of hot air pressures (4.3) in the area is carried out by an air extractor system (5), which has a deflection grid (5.1) of rejected or fallen casings (9.2).
- the automatic coil change system (7) acts after detection speed reduction by means of a coil end sensor, gluing the initial end (7.1.1) of the new coil (7.1) by adhesive tape
- the machine has remote control means of its operation, by means of a modem, both of the servo controls by means of the PLC automaton and the touch terminal provided on the monitor for operator service, having a terminal fork to three elementary antennas.
