- the invention relates to the tools for packaging the parts at the output of the production machines and, more particularly, a method and a packaging installation in the form of strips of parts comprising a through recess.
- the parts At the output of the production machines, for example thermoplastic injection molding machines, the parts, all identical, must be conditioned to allow their transport to other stations where they will be assembled, for example, with other parts, in a manufacturing process.
- stacking machines parts having a guide from the outside thereof. Guiding is done by means of openwork laterally or completely closed, such as wells, sheaths or cases. These devices do not make it possible to completely control the fall of the parts in the guiding device, d ! where there is a risk of turning over or skewing the parts, which necessitates the addition of devices for controlling the fall and restoring poorly arranged parts.
- the release and extraction of the pressed piles is also complex, either the support plate must be cleared of all the guiding, control and repositioning devices, or it must be brought above this assembly.
- very complex technique a device for extracting, from above, each stack of each guide device.

- a piling device composed of a plurality of pins adapted to receive, guidedly guided, the recesses of the parts, removably mounted in a support plate placed under a loading tray provided with bores. face of the pins mounted on the support and in which are engaged, free in vertical translation, said pins and a device for maneuvering in vertical translation of the support.
- 0 - A guide system in axial translation of the stacking device to the pressing device, and vice versa, in the case where the loading zone is different from the pressing zone.
- a pressing device consisting of a support plate, 5 disposed horizontally above the plateau of loading, provided with perforations tra versa nt adapted to receive, iss liliber liber, the pins carried by the support plate, u u platinum on which is exerted the vertical compression force provided by a suitable mechanism and which is solidified surface of the backing plate by means of columns.
- the section of the spindles is calculated to fit the shape of the internal recess of the workpiece to be conditioned by ensuring a guided fall and its obstacle of the workpiece along the spindle.
- the pins consist of a device comprising at least two rods, dimensioned to the diameter and spacing according to the shape of the inner recess of the piece to be conditioned, fixed in the lower part in the support plate and advantageously connected between them at the top to maintain their spacing and ensure the rigidity of the whole.
- the support plate of the stacking device carries columns, free in translation, in the loading plate to gu ide the vertical translation movement of the plate sur pport and pins relative to said plate,
- the support plate of the pressing device comprises through holes able to receive, with free sliding, the columns carried by the support plate.
- the pressing device comprises guide columns of the traversing support plate, free in translation, said plate.
- a comb is disposed at the stacking device and translates perpendicularly to the movement of the loading plate to gather the webs and direct them to a storage table adjacent to said platen.
- Another subject of the invention is a packaging method for implementing the insta llation which comprises the following steps:
- Removing the loading tray from the pressing zone Removing the stacking device to release the bars. Gathering the strips to direct them to a storage table adjacent to the tray.
- one or more intermediate pressing phases are carried out in order to consolidate the cells being produced, and to make the pressing pressure homogeneous.

- ⁇ Figure 2 is a view of the underside of the same room
- FIG. 3 is a view of the installation according to the invention in the loading position of the parts.
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 in the pressing position of the parts.
- FIG. 5 is a side view of the installation, in the pressing position of the parts
- FIG. 6 is an axial sectional view of the part loading system
- FIG. 7 is a view in axial section of the pressing system, in the pressing phase of the pieces,
- FIG. 8 is a view analogous to FIG. 7, in the phase of feeding the pieces
- FIG. 9 is a view from above of the installation.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show respectively the views of the upper face and the lower face of a part (1) produced by injection and conditioned by the apparatus according to the invention.
- This piece comprises a év idement (2) of complex geometric shape practiced throughout the thicker r thereof. It is conceivable that such parts should be packaged in an orderly manner at the outlet of the injection molding machine in order to avoid their entanglement.
- the installation as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, comprises two working zones mounted on a common frame (3).
- Zone (A) is devoted to the loading of the pieces in vertical piles and zone (B) to the formation of the bars.
- the area (A) of loading is composed, as is best seen in Figure (3, 4 and 6), pins (4) su r which are intended to stack the pieces ⁇ !). Therefore, the section of these pins is determined by the shape of the inner recess (2) of the workpiece (1). The shape of the section corresponds to the perimeter of this recess reduced by a shrinkage function of the thickness of the piece and reduced to its simplest possible ex pression.
- the points of contact necessary for guiding the workpiece during its fall along the spindle are determined and the parts of the inner shape which can cause a catch are eliminated.
- the shape of the definitive section of the spindle is then reduced from the minimum points selected.
- the pins (4) are mounted, advantageously removably, in a support plate (5) in which they are arranged in line and in rows.
- the plate (5) is placed below a plate (6) for drilling holes in front of the pins mounted on said plate and in which are engaged, free in vertical translation, said pins.
- Removably mounting the pins allows the user to mount other types of pins for stacking other pieces of different shapes.
- the number of pins carried by the support plate is equal to the number of parts produced in one operation by the production machine.
- this number corresponds to that of the impressions of the injection mold.
- the support plate (5) still carries columns (7) engaged, free in translation, in the plate (u) and intended to guide the vertical translation movement of the plate (5) and the pins (4) relative to this plateau.
- the vertical translational movement of the plate (5) is provided by a suitable mechanism, for example a jack (8).
- the zone (B) is composed of a pressing plate (11) arranged horizontally above the plate (6) when it is brought into the zone (B), of columns guide (12) passing through the plate (11) through conduits (13) of a jack (14) whose pressing force is transmitted by a plate (15) to the plate (11) by means of columns (16).
- the plate (1 1) has through holes (17 and 18) to receive, free sliding, respectively, the pins 4 and the columns (7), carried by the support plate (5).
- the height of the columns (16) is calculated to prevent contact of the pins (4) with the platen (15) during the pressing operation.
- the parts (1) are brought, either manually or with the aid of a robotic device (not shown) above the zone (A), engaged on the pins (4). and received on the loading tray (6), so as to always have an identical face (19) on the top of the stack.
- the plate (6) bearing said pins is transported by translation of the profiles (9) on the rails (1 0), below the pressing device of the zone (B). ).
- the parts comprise clipping means for assembling them with each other, by pressing.
- one of the faces (1 9) of the parts (1) bears, for example, lugs (20) in line with each other when the opposite face (21) has depressions ( 22) shaped to receive the lugs (20).
- the assembly constituted by the plate (6) and the support plate (5) is brought into the zone (A), or the cylinder (8) leads down the plate (5) carrying the pins (4) and guiding columns (7).
- the pressing assembly is driven upwards by the jack (14) releasing the plate (6) on which only the bars (23) remaining to be brought to the next station remain.
- a comb (24) provided with at least two lateral wings (25) and driven in translation by a jack (26), perpendicular to the displacement of the plate (6), collects the bars (23) to direct them to a storage table (27) adjacent to the tray.
- this table is equipped with grooves (28) for guiding the bars in translation.
- the grooves are narrowed in the direction of advancement of the comb to form a neck which allows the bars to meet in the transverse direction.
- the bars are clamped against each other in compact blocks able to be covered with a condi- tioning film or a packaging board.
- the pressing force exerted on the piles to fasten the pieces together is calculated to then be able to detach them either manually or by means of a tomatic distributor.
- the process and the installation described above enable gravity stacking to be carried out on a large surface of identical pieces, in particular with a complex geometrical shape comprising a central through-hole, and their conditioning in solid and homogeneous bars. They also allow the maintenance of batteries in process of constitution and the control of the positioning of each new stacked part.
- the instal lation brings a great precision in the positioning of the parts and in the distribution of the pressing force. This results in a greater constancy in the quality of the bars which gives an advantage for their use, especially with a dispensing machine in tomatic.
- the pins (4) for holding the parts during their descent have a section adapted to the through cut of the workpiece, however they are mounted removably in the support plate (5), which allows easily adapt the installation to several types of rooms.
- the guide system makes it possible to use pins of high height while preserving their rigidity and the precision of their positioning at the high point, the pins being subjected to no mechanical stress. This ensures a centering by rail to the parts presented by the gripping hand of the loading robot.
- the parts can be assembled together by elastic pinching, stapling or any fastening system that can be implemented by a suitable pressure and subsequently disconnected.
- the comb (24) may be provided with teeth spaced at an interval substantially equal to the width of the bars so as to form in so many rows that there are intervals during their collection.
- the pins consist of a device comprising at least two rods dimensioned in diameter and spacing so as to constitute an internal guide along which the pieces slide vertically, by gravity, to create the stacking. These rods are fixed at the bottom in the support plate and interconnected at the top to maintain their spacing and ensure the rigidity of the assembly.
