Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a blistering machine for producing blister packs.
  • the invention is advantageously applied in the production of blister packs containing pharmaceutical products, such as tablets, capsules, pills, pellets and the like, to which the following description will refer without loosing its general character.
  • a known blistering machine M for producing blister packs includes: a station 1, in which a first continuous band 2 of thermoformable material (e.g. PVC) is thermoformed to define a blister band with blisters 3 containing products 4, the blister band 2 being fed continuously along a determined feeding path A having a varying course; a station 5 for feeding products 4, having a unit for filling each blister 3 with a relevant product 4; a station 6 for feeding a second continuous band 7 (e.g. aluminium) , feeding continuously the second continuous band 7 over the blister band 2 filled with the products 4; a station 8 for closing the first blister band 2 with the second band 7 by heat-sealing, in order to obtain a continuous blister pack band NB.
  • a first continuous band 2 of thermoformable material e.g. PVC
  • a second continuous band 7 e.g. aluminium
  • the continuous ⁇ lister pack band NB with the pre-cut lines is divided, e.g. by cutting in a cutting station R, to define a plurality of single blister packs B.
  • the closing station 8 has two opposed rollers linked to each other, that is it includes a first, driving lower and recessed roller, that is having circumferential grooves 12a for housing blisters 3 with products 4, and a second roller 13, situated opposite and above the driving roller 12 and provided with heating means, to heat and pressure join the two bands 2 and 7, as they are placed one over the other.
  • joining of the two bands occurs in a tangential line between the opposite rollers 12, 13, while an efficient grip while pulling the blister pack band NB is obtained due to the contact of the blister pack band NB along a wide arc defined on the peripheral surface of the driving roller 8a.
  • the band NB is driven through a bending roller 11 and along an acute angle section of the feeding path A, downstream of the closing station 8 and defining a loop K.
  • the idler roller 11, defining the loop K and allowing best grip by the driving roller 12 on the band NB, can also oscillate between different working positions, in order to allow to make up for the continuous feeding of the band NB along the path A: this oscillation is necessary, because a continuous feeding of the bands 2 and 7, and consequently of the band NB must match with an operation of the stamping station 9 and the pre-cutting station 10, which in the known blistering machines, occurs in an intermittent way.
  • the object of the present invention is to propose a blistering machine, whose structure is simpler and more compact with respect to the known blistering machines, described above, which results in a considerable reduction of dimensions.
  • an object of the present invention is to simplify the structure and functionality of the bands closing station, so as to increase the production speed of the whole blistering machine.
  • Another object of the present invention is to improve the structure of the bands closing station, eliminating the possibility of generating damaging curving of the blister band due to the heat joining of the bands.
  • a further object of the present invention is to improve the structure of the bands closing station, avoiding the contact between the still hot closing band and the products inside the blisters, during the seal joining.
  • a blistering machine for producing blister packs includes a production line, which comprises consecutively at least one thermoforming station of a first continuous band of thermoformable material, in order to define a blister band with blisters containing products; a station for feeding said products and filling said blister band with the latter,- a feeding station of a second band, feeding the second band continuously over said blister band filled with the products; a closing station, where the first blister band is sealed by said second band to obtain a blister pack band, said closing station including two opposite rollers; and a cutting station, in which said blister pack band is cut into respective blister packs; the machine being characterized in that said production line extends, at least beginning from said products feeding station, along a continuous feeding path, substantially horizontal, and in that tension means are situated upstream of said closing station, along said path, to cooperate with said rollers of said closing station, to perform a determined tension on at least the first band.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic, perspective view of a known blistering machine (Prior Art)
  • Figure 2 is a schematic front view of a preferred embodiment of the blistering machine proposed by the present invention
  • - Figure 3 is a front, partially sectional view, with some parts removed for sake of clarity, of a preferred embodiment of a work station forming an integrating part of the blistering machine schematized in Figure 2
  • Figure 4 is a detailed lateral view of a particular of the work station of Figure 3 , with some parts removed
  • Figure 5 is a lateral, section view of a working group, being a part of the work station of Figures 3 and 4.
  • the reference Ml indicates generally a blistering machine proposed by the present invention, for producing blister packs containing products, preferably pharmaceutical.
  • the constituent elements of the machine Ml shown in Figure 2 will be described and indicated with reference numbers defined by the same reference numbers (where present and where it is possible) used for describing the machine M, summed to the base number 100: therefore, the number 101 indicates the thermoforming station of the machine Ml, which corresponds to the number 1 indicating the thermoforming station of the blistering machine M of the prior art, and so on.
  • the blistering machine Ml is defined by a production line including a station 101, where a first continuous band 2 of thermoformable material (e.g. PVC) is thermoformed, so as to obtain a blister band 102 with blisters 103 containing products 104; the blister band 102 being fed in a substantially continuous way along a predetermined feeding path Al; a station 105 for feeding the products 104 having a unit for filling each blister 103 with a relative product 104; a feeding station 106 of a second band 107 (e.g. aluminium), feeding the second band continuously over the blister band filled with the products; a closing station 108, where the first blister band is closed by the second band 107 by heat sealing, to obtain a continuous blister band NBl.
  • a first continuous band 2 of thermoformable material e.g. PVC
  • the continuous blister pack band NBl with the pre-cut lines is divided, e.g. by cutting in a cutting station Rl, to define a plurality of single blister packs Bl.
  • the stamping station 109 and the pre-cutting station 110 are preferably operated to work continuously on the band NBl, driven continuously, because the stamping/cutting means move continuously from and to the blister band NBl and following the band NBl.
  • the single blister packs Bl are withdrawn and fed to a boxing unit (known and not shown) , to be packaged in suitable boxes in known way.
  • a boxing unit known and not shown
  • the feeding path Al of the band 102 in the machine Ml extends horizontally, at least beginning from the station 105 for feeding products 104.
  • the closing station 108 for sealing the band 102 with the band 107 has a couple of rollers 112, 113, which are arranged at the opposite side with respect to the bands 102, 107.
  • the roller 112 situated at the lower level, is a driving roller having recesses 112a for receiving the blisters 3 of the blister band 102, while the upper roller 113, situated opposite the roller 112 and cooperating therewith, is a heated sealing roller.
  • the driving roller 112 is completely coupled with the blister band 102 in a single line corresponding to a line T of contact with the sealing roller 113.
  • the machine Ml upstream of the closing station 108 with respect to the feeding action along the path Al , the machine Ml includes a group 114 for tensioning the bands 102 and 107.
  • the group 114 allows the pair of bands 102 and 107 to advance horizontally with the best tension, thus allowing an efficient mutual joining of the bands 102, 107 in the station 108, without slipping and with the best gripping and driving action on the blisters 103 by the seats 112a of the roller 112, although the band 102 can adhere to the roller 112 only in a region corresponding to the contact line T.
  • the group 114 includes a pair of rollers 116, 117: the lower roller 116 is a power-driven roller and its cross-section has at least two rings 116a and 116b, holding the edges of the blister band 102.
  • the roller 116 acts practically as a braking element of the band 102 when it receives a command signal S sent by detecting and control means 115 ( Figure 4), aimed at checking the correct matching between the blister 103 and the housing seat 112a made on the driving roller 112.
  • the upper roller 117 cooperates with the roller 116 and, in its turn, has pressing means 118 ( Figure 5), which perform a controlled pressure on the power-driven roller 116: in this way it is possible to change the pressure force against the power-driven roller 116.
  • the detecting and control means 115 are arranged in a region corresponding to the driving roller 112 and act in counter-reaction on the tensioning unit 114, so as to allow its activation, that is to generate a braking tension of the band 102, when an erroneous matching seat 112a - blister 113 is detected by means 115.
  • the means 115 include, preferably but not limiting, an optical sensor 115, situated near the driving roller 112 and acting along the sole seat 112a - blister 103 matching line T.
  • the sensor 115 is preferably an laser ray emitter, and the ray is reflected by a photocell 120 only in case of erroneous seat 112a - blister 103 matching.
  • the blistering machine Ml structured in this way reaches the objects, due to a simple and efficient structure of the sealing station 108.
  • the possibility of performing the sealing in only one line of contact of the two rollers and with the bands situated one over the other horizontally, downstream, as well as upstream of the closing station allows a high final quality of the blister packs, eliminating undesired curving of the blister packs, and a sealing reliability given by the presence of the tensioning/braking unit, which controls the correct passage of bands in real time.
  • the blistering machine proposed by the present invention having the above described closing station, can produce blister packs with elongated blisters (e.g. for containing capsules) , without the necessity to use, in the closing station, driving rollers of multi-faceted peripheral surfaces, which provoke undesired striations on the blister packs and/or damaging contacts between the products and portions of the closing band still hot after the sealing.
