Definitions
- the present invention relates to plant for the continuous cycle manufacture of bags fashioned in polypropylene, polythene, PVC and similar plastic materials.
- the prior art embraces a variety of systems for the formation of plastic bags by heat-sealing, all of which are intermittent in operation insofar as they involve indexing previously cut and folded sheets of plastic film, generally on a conveyor belt, into a heat-seal station that consists in a vertically reciprocating plate disposed transversely to the path of the conveyor, the film material being held motionless at the station until such time as two, three or four sides have been fused together to form the bag.
- a further drawback experienced with indexing type systems is that waste is generated, as a transverse strip of the film has to be trimmed away in order to provide an opening for the bag and ensure a tidy finish.
- US-A-2 866 392 shows means to manufacture pouches of cellophane or the like, comprising a folding station, at least a sealing station having electrically heated roller-carried sealing irons, and a cutting station having a roller-carried blade cooperable with a fixed blade.
- a problem of the sealing station is that the plastic film has a direct contact with the heated irons and, moreover, there is not an efficient device for cooling the heat-sealed film.
- US-A-4 599 926 discloses a die-cutting roll to cut holes in traveling web materials and to drive the fragments or the waste inwardly under vacuum through an axial passage inside the roll.
- the object of the present invention is to provide plant for the continuous cycle manufacture of bags using one or more reels of film, or alternatively, and by virtue of this same capacity for continuous production, operating in combination with a chill-(or ( cast-) roll facility of the type which produces film by continuous extrusion.
- a further object of the invention is to step up the number of bags turned but per hour by the plant, without jeopardizing quality.
- Another object of the invention is to reduce the quantity of waste generated in manufacture.
- the folding device 5 serves to double up the film into two identical sandwiched layers, denoted 6, which are fed between two guide rollers 7 and then passed around a roller denoted 8, this in its turn flanked by a pressure roller 8a the purpose of which is to flatten the fold and align the running film in readiness for its passage through a set of units, or stations, to which the present invention effectively relates.
- the heat-seal station 11 comprises a top roll 12 and a bottom roll 13, both of which are driven by a belt 14 looped around two pulleys 15 and 16 keyed to the respective shafts 17 and 18 of the rolls 12 and 13.
- the belt 14 is kept taut by a tensioner 19, and turned by a pulley 20 set in rotation by a bevel gear pair 21 in receipt of drive from a shaft 22 coupled to a geared motor 23 (see fig 2).
- the roll shafts 17 and 18 are embodied hollow in order to accommodate wires 24 supplying electrical power to resistances 25 by which the rolls 12 and 13 are heated.
- the resistances 25 are arranged in two parallel and laterally positioned circumferential elements 26 and 27 by means of which to produce a pair of continuous longitudinal seams along the folded outer edges of the running film, and one transverse element 28 by means of which to produce a seam across the film.
- the shafts 17 and 18 are supported by bearings 29 and 29a carried in journal blocks 30 and 31 made fast to two respective rails 32 and 33 which are mounted slidably to columns 34.
- Each column 34 is part-threaded in such a way as to accept two lock nuts 37 which impinge on relative sleeves denoted 38; in effect, it is these sleeves that are mounted slidably to the columns and permit of adjusting the position of the roll shafts.
- the belt 35 denotes a belt looped around the bottom heated roll 13, the purpose of which is to isolate the folded film entirely from the surface of the roll, thereby preventing direct contact between the two; the belt 35 is set in motion by the roll 13 itself, and tensioned by means denoted 36.
- Plant according to the present invention comprises a cut and punch station located following the heat seal station.
- the station in question comprises two distinct devices: a transverse cutter 40a by which the continuous film is separated into single bags, and a punch 40b designed to produce a plurality of holes along one longitudinal edge of each bag.
- the cutter device 40a comprises a top roll 41a and a bottom roll 41b, of which the top roll 41a is urged elastically into contact with the bottom roll by spring means embodied in rubber 42.
- the blade and the striker are clamped and adjusted for position by way of means denoted 43a and 44a, respectively.
- the shafts 45 and 46 of the cutter device 40a are embodied hollow in order to permit of ducting a coolant to and from the rolls by way of relative manifolds 47, and are driven utilizing a system identical to that previously described for the heat seal rolls.
- the punch device 40b similarly comprises two rolls, of which the top roll 51 affords a plurality of holes 52, arranged in a circular formation and accommodating relative balls 53 each of which is held in place by a retaining ring 54 and urged against the ring by a setscrew 55.
- the bottom roll 56 of the device is fitted with a plurality of hollow cylindrical cutting edges 57 positioned in such a way as to register with the balls 53 of the top roll, and thus puncture each bag with circular holes.
- the bottom roll is carried by a shaft 60 that will be embodied hollow to permit of connection to an extractor system 61 for removal of the punchings which accumulate during the course of production.
- the two punch rolls 51 and 56 are urged together elastically by rubber spring means 62.
- the runout from the final station coincides with a conveyor belt 63 by which the finished bags are gathered up and counted.
