Definitions

  • the invention relates to a machine for producing plasticizer packs with filling bags inside and support sleeve outside.
  • Machines are already known for packs for absorbing liquids as flow agents, in which machines are continuously operated from a plastic-coated paper web in which a tube is formed, filled with liquid and separated and welded into individual packs.
  • This object is achieved in that two separate supply rolls are provided for the removal of two material webs to processing stations arranged one behind the other, that in a first processing station molding devices are provided for the creation of a support sleeve tube piece from the first material web and a first conveyor device receiving the tube pieces ; In a second processing station, devices are provided for producing a row of filled individual filling bags arranged side by side from the second material web; In a third processing station, transport devices and devices for combining the filling bag and the tube piece with a mandrel wheel are provided; and in a fourth processing station, locking devices for the support casing and conveyors are provided.
  • supplies for a first material web preferably a roll
  • supplies for a second material web preferably a zigzag-folded stack
  • a nearly finished folding box even if only open on one side, is not formed from a stack of blanks, but instead a piece of pipe is formed from the first material web in a correspondingly continuous manner as a supporting sleeve part, which is attached to both Ends is open.
  • Such pieces of pipe can in turn advantageously be picked up, transported and processed accordingly by means of a conveyor belt and / or mandrel wheels.
  • the above-mentioned further measure according to the invention also produces a row of filled bags arranged next to one another from a second material web, the mandrel wheels are more easily connected to the supporting sleeve tube pieces because the latter are still open at both ends .
  • suitable measures are to be provided for how these pipe pieces which are open at the ends can be closed, namely by means of closing devices which interact with the mandrel wheels.
  • the first material web is mounted on a roll as a storage location and consists of a paper web coated at least on one side with plastic and if the second material web is stored in the form of a zigzag stack as a storage location and consists of a double-layered film web Plastic with at least one end, optionally at two diametrically opposite ends sealed cover parts.
  • the first material web for continuous removal and processing from a packaging material is used according to the invention, which was previously used in the packaging manufacturing machines described at the outset, which manufacture a tube, fill with liquid and produce individual packages by cross-welding and cutting. If one follows the teaching of this invention, a very thin plastic coating on the paper web is sufficient, because the superplasticizer to be packaged is in the filling bag, that of the pack is supported from paper.
  • the use of a double-layered sheet of film with the sealed cover parts also advantageously allows the filling bag to be completely filled with flow agent, in particular with liquid, without fear of the liquid spilling over when opened.
  • a preferred embodiment is designed in such a way that the cover parts are sealed at the opposite ends on the film web over a larger area which, in a ring-shaped sealing manner, surrounds that sealing area which is torn open when the opening strip is torn open.
  • the filling bag remains stuck to the cover part even after being torn open, which prevents spillover when opening and air can penetrate between the support sleeve and the filling bag, while liquid is poured out through the hole in the cover mentioned.
  • the molding devices of the first processing station have mold flaps encompassing a mandrel with a sealing station and two peripheral conveying stations and the mandrels of the mandrel wheels are external mandrels.
  • the configuration of the mandrels as external mandrels surprisingly allows simplified devices for inserting the filled and finished filling bag into supporting sleeve tube parts located in the external mandrel; also allows the free edges of the tubular casing pieces to be flanged over, so that the above-mentioned cover parts seated on the film parts can be welded on with simple devices.
  • the pipe section is created from the flat first material web, the coated paper web, by separating the web into jacket pieces and guiding them with the form flaps into the pipe form and welding them with a longitudinal sealing seam in such a way that the desired casing pipe section is welded results.
  • the cutting devices for separating flat web pieces which can be moved to at least a second position and back and are attached to a sled, behind which sealing stations preferably working with hot air in the second position and a movable flanging tool is arranged behind it in a further position and when the mandrel is stationary and extends at least from the sealing station to the conveying tool.
  • one works simultaneously in each position with two form flaps arranged side by side, which are two parts which can be rotated like a hinge about a common shaft and, after being folded up, completely embrace the mandrel and the cut piece of the first material web located around it.
  • the hinge or the shaft connecting the two flaps in each station is expediently fastened to a carriage, both carriages being able to be moved together to the first or second position and back.
  • the first position is preferably vertically above the second. In the first position, the flat, isolated web piece is brought into the desired tube shape around the mandrel, the web pieces in this shape are moved down to the second position and there the longitudinal edge of the tubes can be prepared with hot air and brought to the finished longitudinal seam by pressure stamps.
  • Suitable conveyor tools e.g. B. clamps, slides or drive jaws pull the finished pipe piece vertically down into a further position in which the flanging tool has one end, in this case preferably the lower one
  • a recess cooperating with a piston projection is arranged at one point on the circumference of the rearmost end of the mandrel to create a pouring edge of the pack.
  • the rearmost end of the mandrel is the end seen in the direction of flow of the material web, in the embodiment described above with the vertical arrangement, the lowest end.
  • the above-mentioned flanging tool will preferably also be arranged, so that at the same time as the flanging, the recess at the edge of the cylindrical wall side of the Pipe piece is introduced.
  • This recess is preferably made at the point at which the tear-off strip of the opening device is arranged in the cover (upper cover part).
  • Such a liquid pack is preferably torn open from the outside towards the center, and in the area under the torn-off cover strip, which is formed from the material of the cover itself (by cutting lines), there is an inner cover strip with a hole as a pouring opening, around which is ring-shaped the filling bag is sealed in the manner described above. If you then pour out liquid, the pouring jet at the pouring edge separates well from the side wall below the pouring edge, because the recess mentioned prevents liquid from depositing on the outer wall, for example by adhesive forces, and flowing down along it.
  • a first embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the first conveyor device receiving the pipe pieces is a first mandrel wheel. Another embodiment with an endless belt as a conveyor will be described later.
  • the first outer mandrel wheel has two outer mandrels displaceable in the direction of its axis on each working surface, and preferably four on a mandrel slide in the axial direction.
  • two outer mandrels of the pair of flaps can be provided with the cladding tube pieces during the first movement and after the slide has been axially displaced, the two other outer mandrels can be provided with the cladding tube pieces in the second step, so that further processing takes place in four pieces from this first outer mandrel wheel. This can further improve the throughput of the machine.
  • the first processing station with its corresponding molding devices and the first mandrel wheel has been described.
  • four pieces of pipe were formed from the first material web (paper), which were flanged at one end and received in a first mandrel wheel.
  • the filled individual filling bags are created from the second material web, which are then to be combined with the pipe pieces in a third processing station and some of which are to be further processed.
  • the facilities of the second processing station are described in more detail with which bags filled with the sealed cover parts are created from the film web.
  • the second material web provided for creating the filling bags is not taken from a roll but from a zigzag-shaped stack as a supply.
  • the reason is the sealed cover parts. Where these are welded to the film, there is a considerably thicker material area than next to it, where only two films lie on top of each other. This would make winding on a roll more difficult or would damage the two webs of material.
  • the deflection of the second material web by the deflecting rollers positioned at the above-mentioned angle relative to one another has the reason that the two cover parts can be correctly positioned in the downstream device for combining the filling bag and the tubular casing piece. It was explained above that the cover parts in the flat state of the film web are still arranged on the flat surfaces and on the respective opposite edges of the film web halves.
  • the deflecting rollers now ensure that the second material web, the film web, is fed to the cladding tube pieces at such an angle to the longitudinal and processing direction of the overall machine that the respective filling bag is rotated relative to the flat position of the web shape so that a connecting line from a cover part to other lies in the machine's longitudinal and processing directions.
  • This rotation of the film web can be illustrated, for example, by cutting off a piece of film web with, for example, only two or three cover parts arranged one behind the other and thinking longitudinally sealed on the side opposite the fold line. If you then run both hands flat between the film, so that the outer edges of the hand come to rest on the folds or welds, you can easily turn both hands in the same direction by the same angle of z. B. imagine 40 °. As a result, the folded seam and the opposite sealed seam migrate automatically the end faces by a certain amount to one side, while the cover parts located on the flat part before turning now come to lie on the end faces due to the aforementioned rotation. The technical means on the machine for carrying out the equivalent rotation are explained in detail below.
  • the axes 20 of both deflecting rollers each lie in a horizontal plane
  • the filling tube and the opposing form welding chains interacting in pairs to form a series of tubular spaces are arranged essentially in a vertical direction above the horizontal planes of the outer mandrel wheel axes .
  • This structure allows the film web with the cover parts still flat and parallel to one another to be deflected from a supply located in the lower area of the machine into an upper area in which the feed piece of the vertically arranged filling tube is inserted through the open side of the film tube, and from there vertically around the filling tube, past this down into a welding and separating device for the filling bags, which is constructed in the form of the two shape welding chains mentioned.
  • the axis of the first outer mandrel wheel already mentioned is parallel and transverse to the longitudinal direction of the finished filling bag; also transversely to the axes of rotation around which the form welding chains are guided. Since the general direction of conveyance and processing of the machine according to the invention, i.e. the longitudinal direction, transverse to the axial direction of the outer mandrel gears, the connecting line of two cover parts in each filling bag just created must also lie in the machine longitudinal direction, because the outer mandrels are also in certain positions in this longitudinal direction and in this way position by position the further processing, i.e. Flanging, transporting, combining the envelope tube piece with the filling bag, welding on one side, closing on the other side, etc. on the mandrel wheels or by transferring from one mandrel wheel in the machine longitudinal direction to the next.
  • the general direction of conveyance and processing of the machine according to the invention i.e. the longitudinal direction, transverse to the axial direction of the outer mandrel gears
  • the first processing station with the shaping devices for the production of the tube pieces and the first outer mandrel wheel is arranged in the machine longitudinal direction at a distance from the second processing station and at an even greater distance from subsequent mandrel wheels.
  • the form welding chains create a series of tubular spaces in the film web, which ultimately become the filling bags. Without foil webs, between the pair of form welding chains interacting in the vertical direction, superimposed tubular spaces are created, which can also be imagined as cylindrical spaces if two half cylinders are held together on each form welding chain.
  • the welded chains are each provided with an endless row of half-shells or troughs, one of which is heated and the other of which is designed as a counter-jaw, in order to press and weld through the filled film tube, creating the individual film bags .
  • the cover parts protrude from the front and rear of the half-shells or troughs of the form welding chains and lie in planes that are approximately perpendicular to the axes of the form welding chain drive rollers.
  • a guide with a certain inclination could of course also be provided, but a guide direction with a vertical component is always useful, because the level of the plasticizer above the shape welding chains and under the longitudinal sealing station should be arranged.
  • the invention is expediently further embodied in that a control ring supporting the material web is fastened at a distance encompassing the material web under the longitudinal sealing station with a slot-shaped hot air nozzle above the two form welding chains and the filling tube.
  • the rotation of the film web by the angle mentioned in such a way that the two cover parts initially lying flat on the film web are rotated from the edge regions into the front ends is easier if the film web is spatially expanded behind or below the longitudinal sealing station and via the support or Control ring pulls because any pre-orientations of the material web by folding edges, longitudinal sealing seams or the like are thereby canceled.
  • the transverse distribution conveyor has an endless trough chain which is guided approximately horizontally about two horizontal axes spaced apart from one another and has cutting devices located between the troughs for separating the filling bags.
  • the cutting devices between the troughs are preferably receiving slots for a cutting knife. It is then sufficient if a knife or scissor device is arranged at one point under the form welding chains, so that the cutting blade located there moves into the respective recess between two troughs and there severes the piece of film which bridges two filled foil bags one behind the other.
  • the cutting line is expediently carried out in the middle through a wide sealing seam, namely that sealing or welding seam which is created by the shape welding chains.
  • the trough chain has the advantage of gentle absorption of the Filling bag chain that is continuously guided out of the pair of welded chains during operation, which can then also be separated gently. If one arranges the transverse distribution conveyor in the position described above, then the filling bags are evident in the longitudinal direction to the machine longitudinal and processing direction, ie in a favorable position for inserting the filled bags into the hollow casing tube pieces.
  • the transfer from the trough chain into the cladding tube pieces is particularly advantageous if, according to the invention, discharge devices with clamping devices are arranged transversely to the conveying direction of the trough chain.
  • the removal is achieved gently and quickly by pushing stamps, pulling devices or conveyors, the clamping devices ensuring that the filling bags deposited in the troughs of the trough chain do not twist.
  • one of the cover parts, e.g. B. the lid provided with the opening device has a gripping tab or the like protruding over the circumference, which is to be held at a specific position for further processing in the machine according to the invention.
  • the transport devices in the third processing station have at least two and preferably four guide channels arranged side by side and transversely to the conveying direction of the trough chain and inclined to the horizontal, the distance on the inlet side of which is smaller than their distance on the outlet side.
  • the film web is first led into the upper machine area and from there down again parallel to the filling pipe.
  • the approximately vertically working form welding chains are arranged above the approximately horizontally working trough chain, and it is not difficult for the invention to arrange this entire structure for erecting the filling bags at a height above a general lower processing plane, in which the axes of the mandrel wheels preferably lie.
  • the gravity or the weight of the bags filled with filling material can also be exploited in order to bring about the union between the filling bag and the tube piece.
  • the gravity or the weight of the filling material is best used by the above-mentioned, diagonally arranged guide channels, in which the filled foil bags can be pushed or pulled directly from the trough chain into the provided hollow casing tube piece.
  • Additional auxiliary support plates or similar tracks can optionally be arranged at the transition areas. However, it is important in the measures described last that the distance between the guide channels on one side is smaller than on the other side.
  • the troughs of the trough chain are relatively close together, because their position must correspond exactly to the half-shells of the shape welding chains and thus to the product that comes out of them, the chain of filling bags.
  • the filling bags are only separated from each other by a cross weld seam (seen with regard to the film tube).
  • a cross weld seam seen with regard to the film tube.
  • an outer mandrel wheel a little more space is desired between the individual outer mandrels of a wheel, which in a preferred embodiment has four mandrels in each angular position in the direction of its axis. In order to make the distance between the four mandrels larger, an adaptation by means of the guide trough must be provided.
  • this lateral component when spreading the guide trough is small from the end with the small distances to the end below with the larger distances, this lateral component does not prevent the filling bags from sliding through or utilizing the weight of the filling material during the transfer from the trough chain into the filling pipe piece .
  • the mandrel wheel with the combining devices for filling bag and tube piece is designed as a second outer mandrel wheel and in the direction of its axis on each of the z.
  • eight work surfaces has two, preferably four external mandrels and pneumatic devices for generating negative and / or positive pressure in at least some external mandrels. The number of outer mandrels in the direction of the mandrel wheel axis has already been discussed.
  • the Transporting a filling bag into or out of the tall pipe section - or filling bag with a pipe section out of the outer mandrel - is easier if, instead of or in addition to pushing in, provision is made for suction and the pushing out or pulling off either by external gripping devices or by internal pressure - or if necessary by both.
  • the combination of the envelope tube piece and the filling bag thus takes place, among other things. with the help of pneumatic devices, i.e. with the help of partially inserted filling bags into the hollow tube piece inside the outer mandrel on the mandrel wheel.
  • This insertion and simultaneous suction is not disturbed by the fact that the mentioned cover parts are attached to the front ends.
  • Practice has also shown that the softness of the cladding tube material does not even impede the flanged edge or even damage the thin film material of the filling bag.
  • a welding device for a first cover part for unilaterally closing the cladding tube piece is provided on a mandrel position of the second outer mandrel wheel
  • the pneumatic device on the second outer mandrel wheel, together with the weight of the filling material has an advantageous effect in that the top down Filling bags introduced into the tube piece have a tendency to sag further, provided that at least one vertical component is maintained. If the said mandrel position of the second outer mandrel wheel with the second welding device is assumed to be vertically above the axis of the second outer mandrel wheel in the middle, this force acting in the perpendicular direction has a particularly pronounced effect in the filling bag.
  • the welding device has a pressure piston which is arranged to be movable vertically above the middle, upper position of the outer mandrel and, in addition to this, the hot pressure jaws or hot air nozzles which encompass the outer, free end of the outer mandrel and are movable approximately transversely to the direction of movement of the pressure piston.
  • the plastic is softened and made sticky with heat radiation, thereby preventing long-term application of heating jaws on opposite sides of the paper web with the heat flowing through the paper accordingly.
  • the cover part and pipe section can be connected quickly and reliably.
  • the measures described last of the third processing station with the devices for the first combination of filling bag and tube piece are finally followed by further measures of the fourth processing station, in which sealing devices are provided for the entire support casing and also for conveyors.
  • the support sleeve consists of the tube piece with the two attached cover parts.
  • the tube piece and the filling bag were combined and a cover part of the filling bag, preferably the part with the opening device that would later be the cover, was welded to one end of the tube piece.
  • the fourth processing station now ensures that the opposite cover part is welded to the other still free end of the pipe section and that the pipe section completely closed with it is removed, i.e. the entire support sleeve or the finished package.
  • a favorable further embodiment of the invention is characterized in that in the fourth processing station, a third outer mandrel wheel is rotatably arranged next to the second outer mandrel wheel with the same number of outer mandrels and parallel wheel axis and in the same direction of rotation, and a device for transferring cladding tube pieces from the second to the third outer mandrel wheel and a welding device for a second cover part for completely closing the cladding tube piece are provided.
  • the third outer mandrel wheel has pneumatic devices for generating negative and / or positive pressure in at least some outer mandrels and if a discharge conveyor is arranged on the side of the third outer mandrel wheel opposite the second outer mandrel wheel.
  • the discharge conveyor is located at the output end of the machine, practically at the rearmost point in the machine's longitudinal direction. The conveyor picks up the finished superplasticizer pack and feeds it to other testing and packaging stations.
  • the double-sided sealing and final completion of the superplasticizer package is carried out by means of external mandrel wheels. While the second outer mandrel wheel described above still belonged to the third processing station, suitable transfer devices ensure that in the respective cycle, four tube pieces, closed on one side, with filling bags arranged on the inside are pushed from the second mandrel wheel into the third, so that an open one is still to be processed End of the pipe section comes to the outside. A corresponding rotation of the third outer mandrel wheel can still make it unfinished Ends are rotated into a position in the machine, which are arranged so that they can be reached easily for similar welding devices as already described above. Then the other cover part, which is already on the filling bag, is welded on for both-sided or final sealing of the support sleeve.
  • the cover part for example the bottom, first inserted into the pipe section, despite its being sucked in by the pneumatic devices in the second outer mandrel wheel, has its outer edge within the flanged edge on The end of the pipe section remains. If necessary, the cover part can even bend, while the flanged edge at the end of the pipe section still remains outside the cover part circumference. This condition can remain unchanged even when the tube piece processed and correctly closed is ejected pneumatically.
  • the welding device on the third outer mandrel wheel preferably above it in the middle vertical, upper position, has a pressure piston provided with suction devices, which, before welding and before pressing on the plastic surfaces to be glued together, on the edge and cover part the latter pulls out, so that it is ensured with certainty that the cover part is placed from the outside onto the flanged edges of the still open end of the pipe section and is pressed on while gluing the thermally softened plastic.
  • the first conveying device which receives the pipe pieces is an endless belt which rotates around vertical axes and which can be moved alternately by one and three units. It has already been indicated above that the first conveying device, which receives the pipe pieces, can also be designed as an endless belt running around vertical axes instead of as a mandrel wheel in this preferred second embodiment which is now to be discussed.
  • the shape of the pipe pieces is the same as described above. Only the finished pipe sections are placed on an endless support conveyor, which has a step-by-step circuit in the manner described above, which could also be referred to as a 1-3 cycle.

  • two finished pieces of pipe are drawn onto the endless belt on holders or mandrels, between which another holder or mandrel remains empty. If the endless belt is then moved on by one unit, the stationary mandrels are opposite two holders or mandrels on the endless belt for the delivery of the pipe sections. If these are also provided with pipe pieces after filling, the endless belt is advanced by three units, so that the stationary mandrels for pulling off the finished pipe pieces are in turn opposed to the initial state on the endless belt.
  • the outer mandrel of the second outer mandrel wheel has a thin cylinder jacket-shaped wall for receiving the filling bag inside and the holder of the tube piece outside and if the free ring edge of the wall is provided with a thickened edge.
