Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for packaging objects, in particular cigarettes, by grouping them together into groups (cigarette groups) and wrapping them in at least one blank of packaging material (tin foil, paper or the like), the group being carried along in one Plane is inserted transversely to the conveying direction of the same blank that is kept ready in a pack receptacle (pocket) of a (first) folding conveyor (folding turret) and is folded during further conveying. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for performing the method.
  • the subject of the invention is a packaging machine, in particular for cigarettes for the production of so-called soft packs.
  • These are usually designed as a soft cup pack, namely with an inner blank made of tinfoil, which completely surrounds the cigarette group to form a tinfoil block, and with a cup-shaped outer wrapper made of a paper blank. This outer covering is open at the top, so that the tinfoil block protrudes slightly from the cup pack.
  • the soft pack formed in this way is usually provided with a further outer covering made of cellophane or plastic film.
  • Such packaging is produced on high-performance packaging machines. These mostly contain revolving folding revolvers for successively folding the blanks.
  • the performance of the packaging machine is limited with intermittent folding turrets because clocked movements can only be carried out in limited speed ranges.
  • packaging machines with continuously revolving folding turrets or other folding conveyors higher turning speeds are possible.
  • the insertion of cigarettes or tinfoil blocks or packs into or out of the folding conveyors requires special measures so that the continuity of the movement is maintained throughout. For this reason, continuously running packaging machines have only found limited use in practice.
  • the invention is based on the object of proposing a packaging machine with cyclically driven folding conveyors (folding turrets) in which the output is nevertheless increased considerably without the need for undesirably high switching speeds for the individual folding conveyors.
  • the method according to the invention to be used in packaging machines is that the folding conveyor (folding turret) is preceded by a group conveyor (group turret) which conveys the objects (cigarette groups) in group receptacles (pockets), the objects in the axial direction into and out of the pockets in a transverse axial direction.
  • group conveyor group turret
  • the cigarettes are ejected from magazine shafts by means of reciprocating pushers and are inserted into receptacles (pockets) of the group revolver. It must be taken into account that there is sufficient time available for the back and forth movement of the plungers and for the dropping of a sufficient number of cigarettes in the magazine shafts.

  • sufficiently dimensioned cycle times are achieved through a special design of the magazine shafts or from shaft groups assigned to a cigarette group and by a training or arrangement of the pockets for receiving the cigarette groups in the group revolver is ensured.
  • the special feature is that a plurality of pockets of the group revolver can be loaded simultaneously via a corresponding number of shaft groups, but on the other hand it is ensured that the cigarettes in the individual magazine shafts can fall down due to their own weight when the plunger is retracted. This is made possible by a fan-like arrangement of the shaft groups, which are therefore only slightly inclined with respect to the vertical.
  • a special relative position of the group receptacles or pockets of the group revolver is provided, such that the pockets, preferably four, each located in a loading station are each directed transversely to the assigned shaft groups.

In the area of the same, parts of the blank are folded; additional blanks during ejection or in the area of a subsequent folding path.

  • the pockets are filled in a special way with two groups of cigarettes lying side by side in the axial direction.
  • the individual measures are carried out simultaneously on the two adjacent cigarette groups or tinfoil blocks or packs.
  • the group revolver can be designed according to the invention in such a way that the cigarette groups in the pockets are exposed to lateral pressure through an elastically compressible side wall of the pockets.
  • otherwise prefabricated tinfoil blocks are fed to a block turret in two lanes. which is comparable in structure and function to the group revolver and which holds two tinfoil blocks in axial direction next to each other.
