Description

Device for filling a carton
The invention relates to a device for filling a carton with flexible articles such as bags according to the preamble of claims 1 and 9 and a method according to the preamble of claim 14.. More particular the subject application is directed to filling a carton with relatively heavy bags such as bags filled with French fries and having a weight of one or more kilograms. However it should be understood hat the invention is not limited to such bags.
Handling of the bags should be effected with high speed whilst at the same time damaging of the product should be prevented as much as possible. Damage to products is a problem if the products are relatively fragile due to either a low temperature or the nature thereof (chips).
US 6,574,943 in the name of Allard A. C. Van Dam assigned to Blue Print Holding B.V. in Woerden discloses a device wherein the bags are substantially horizontally fed to a stacker in which they are grouped as vertical stack. After a group of articles has been gathered this group is pushed sidewards in the opening of a tilted carton. After the carton is placed in its position of shipment the bags are in vertical position.
It is an object of the present invention to provide in a device for filling of cartons wherein the bags can be positioned in horizontal position in the position of shipment of the carton.
It is a further aim of the invention to provide a device for filling of cartons in which the bags can be both horizontally and vertically be entered in a carton.
According to the invention this aim is realised with a device as described above having the characterizing features of claim 1.
According to a further aspect of the invention a device is proposed having a substantially horizontal feeding conveyor for articles, a stacker at the discharge end of said feeding conveyor for receiving and collecting said articles on top of each other, a carton receiving station downstream from said stacker, transferral means acting between said stacker and said carton receiving station wherein said carton receiving station is displaceable arranged between a horizontal position below said cassettes and a vertical position in front of said transferral means. According to yet a further aspect the invention relates to a method for filling a carton with flexible articles such as bags, comprising substantially horizontal feeding of said bags to a buffer, depositing said articles on top of each other in said buffer in order to provide a vertical stack of articles, displacing said vertical stack of articles in an enclosure having a shape substantially corresponding to the shape of said group of articles, said enclosure delimiting said groups of articles on all sides, removing the bottom of said enclosure and allowing said group of articles to drop from said enclosure into a carton being positioned there below.
According to the invention in the cassette a group of articles is realised being in the position corresponding to the correct position in subsequent cartons. On the other hand the bags are continuously guided during processing thereof limiting the chances of damage during their processing.
Although the cassette can be filled vertically, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention the transfer means are arranged to provide horizontal displacement of the articles. More in particular horizontal displacement is effected with a pusher.
Removal of the cassette is according to a preferred embodiment of the invention realised through a slide which can move in horizontal direction.
According to a further preferred embodiment said cassette is displaceably arranged between an operative position in front of the transferral means and inoperative means above the transferreal means.
According to a further preferred embodiment both the cassette and the carton receiving station are provided on an auxiliary frame connectable to a main frame of said conveyor. An exemplary embodiment of the invention, which should in no way be interpreted as limiting, is shown in the drawing, wherein:
Fig. 1 schematically shows the device according to the invention at the first step during horizontal stacking of bags in a carton;
Fig. 2 shows the device according to fig. 1 during a second step; Fig. 3 shows the device according to fig. 1 and 2 in a third step;
Fig. 4 shows the device according to fig. 1-3 in perspective; Fig. 5 shows the device according to the invention during vertical stacking in a first step; Fig. 6 shows the device according to fig. 5 during a second step; Fig. 7 shows the device according to fig. 5 in a third step; Fig. 8 shows the device according to fig. 5-7 in perspective. The device according to the invention is general referred to by 1. It comprises a main frame 3 in which a substantially horizontal conveyor 2 is provided. The person skilled in the art will immediately understand that the conveyor 2 might slightly be slanted relative to the horizontal and can comprise any conveyor suitable for conveying articles 10 such as bags of French fries.
The discharge end of conveyor 2 is indicated by 9 where a reciprocating support 4 is provided. Bags are delivered on support 4 and drop by sliding support 4 to the left (fig. 1). An auxiliary buffer space 5 is provided in order to accumulate (store) enough bags 10 to buffer the time that is required to complete the pusher 21 cycle in the main buffer space 6. Main buffer space 6 and auxiliary buffer space 5 are separated by buffer plate 13. This buffer plate 13 can also be moved to the left to allow the stored (buffered) bags in buffer space 5 to be deposited onto lift plate 99. Lift plate 99 is close under buffer plate 13 when buffer plate 13pulls to the left. After that the lift plate steps down a distance that corresponds with the thickness of the bags for every bag that comes down from carrier plate 4 until a complete carton load 12 (5 articles in this example) is stacked on top of the lift plate 99. A pusher 6 is provided being in fig. 1 on the left side of group 12 of articles.
The pusher 6 can be moved in the direction of arrow 8 and by actuating the cylinder 7 in fig. 1 from the right to the left the situation of fig. 2 is effected.
A cassette 15 is provided having three circumferential sidewalls 16 and an open front 17. The top of the cassette is indicated by 14 whilst the bottom thereof has reference 18 and is realised as a slide. By transferring group 12 of articles to the right by pusher 7, the pusher plate 21 will close the last open side of the cassette 15. This is shown in fig. 2. By subsequently displacing the slide 18 through operation of rod 20 of cylinder 19 to open the cassette the group of articles will drop in a carton 11 being provided on platform 25 of the carton receiving station 23 (see fig. 3). Because the carton load 12 of articles fits relatively tightly into carton 11 some over pressure will be generated under the articles 12 during the drop inside the carton. This over pressure in the carton under the articles reduces the speed of the articles during dropping in carton 11. This speed reduction (cushioning) reduces damage to the articles whilst this action is sufficiently fast to allow for a high feed of articles 10 on conveyor 2 on the other hand.
Box 11 is subsequently discharged to discharge conveyor 28. In this way horizontal stacking of bags (horizontal in the position of opening of the box) can be realised in an efficient way with a high speed.
As shown in the figures platform 25 is tiltable around pivot 27. Tilting is effected by cylinder 26. Cassette 15 is provided on an auxiliary frame 31 which can be moved upward and downwardly through a motor 32 having a spindle 33 engaging in a nut like structure 34 being connected to frame 31. The effect of both tilting the platform 23 and moving cassette 15 in upward direction is shown in fig. 5 and on. In this figure it is shown that the cassette together with slide 18 is moved to an inoperative position. Cylinder 26 has been operated such that a carton receiving platform 25 is in a vertical position with the supporting platform thereof which means that carton 41 has its opening laterally. According to the invention in this position of operation, in the same way as described above, a group of articles 12 (complete carton load) is positioned in main buffer space 6 supported by lift plate 99 and possibly compressed under buffer plate 13.. Subsequently pusher 7 is activated. This is shown in fig. 5. From fig. 6 it is clear that the articles are not entered into a cassette but directly into carton 41. After filling carton 41 by operating pusher 7, cylinder 26 is operated to bring the platform 25 in substantially horizontal position for discharge to discharge conveyor 28. In this way articles 10 are stacked vertically adjacent to each other in the position of opening of the carton.
Depending on the requirements of the user of the cartons it is simply possible in the way as described above to quickly change from horizontal to vertical stacking and vice versa in a carton for the same product. It should be understood that it is possible in vertical and horizontal packing to have more than one article 10 per stacked layer in the main buffer space 6 as shown in fig. 4 and 8 respectively. The stacked layers of multiple bags are created by a lane divider 100 that is placed on top of the horizontal feed conveyor. The lane conveyor comprises of two flexible vertical side guides as shown in figure 4 and 8. These side guides move from side to side to allow the bags 10 to exit in different positions (lanes). It will be understood that only examples are given above and that the invention is by no means limited thereto. Variants will immediately occur to the person skilled in the art on reading the above description and I was in the scope of the dependent claims.
