Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zigarettenverpackungsmaschine, insbesondere einen hinged-lid-Packer, mit zwei Förderern für Packungen und einem vorzugsweise mehrreihigen, eine Vielzahl von Zellen aufweisenden Trockenrevolver, wobei zwischen den Förderern und dem Trockenrevolver eine Übergabeeinrichtung für die Packungen an den Trockenrevolver vorgesehen ist.The invention relates to a cigarette packaging machine, in particular a hinged-lid packer, with two conveyors for packs and a preferably multi-row drying turret having a plurality of cells, a transfer device for the packs to the drying turret being provided between the conveyors and the drying turret.

Es ist bekannt, Zigaretten in Klappdeckelpackungen, sogenannte hinged-lid-Packungen, zu verpacken. Hierzu wird ein zu verpackender Zigarettenblock zunächst in Innenpapier eingeschlagen und das so gebildete Innenpaket in einer Klappdeckelschachtel, die aus einem entsprechenden Zuschnitt gefaltet und geklebt wird, untergebracht.It is known to pack cigarettes in hinged-lid packs, so-called hinged-lid packs. For this purpose, a block of cigarettes to be packed is first wrapped in inner paper and the inner package thus formed is accommodated in a hinged-lid box, which is folded and glued from a corresponding blank.

Um Zigaretten in dieser Weise zu verpacken, sind etwa aus der DE-A-3 046 065 Maschinen bekannt, die einen Zigarettentrichter aufweisen, aus dem Zigaretten jeweils in Zellen eines Blockrevolvers schiebbar sind, dem Zellen aufweisende Revolver, die mit Innen- und Außenpapierzuführungen sowie Falt-, Beleim- und Übergabeeinrichtungen gekoppelt sind, nachgeschaltet sind, denen schließlich ein Trockenrevolver folgt. Die gebildeten Packungen werden in eine erste Reihe des Trockenrevolvers eingeschoben, um nach entsprechendem Umlauf in weitere Reihen weiter- und nach genügender Trocknungszeit ausgeschoben zu werden. Wenn hierbei doppelbahnig gearbeitet wird, d.h. die zu trocknenden Packungen durch zwei Förderer angefördert werden, kann man zwar zwei Trockenrevolver installieren, was aber einen großen Aufwand darstellt, oder man kann einen Trockenrevolver verwenden, den man an zwei getrennten Stellen befüllt. Jedoch führt dies zu ungleichen Aufenthaltszeiten im Trockenrevolver und ist ebenfalls relativ aufwendig.In order to package cigarettes in this way, machines are known from DE-A-3 046 065, for example, which have a cigarette funnel from which cigarettes can be pushed into cells of a block revolver, the revolver with cells, which have inner and outer paper feeds and Folding, gluing and transfer devices are coupled, connected downstream, which is finally followed by a dry turret. The packs formed are inserted into a first row of the drying turret in order to be pushed out into further rows after a corresponding circulation and to be pushed out after a sufficient drying time. If double-lane work is used, i.e. the packs to be dried are conveyed by two conveyors, you can install two drying turrets, which is a great effort, or you can use a drying turret that is filled at two separate points. However, this leads to uneven times in the dry turret and is also relatively expensive.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Zigarettenverpackungsmaschine der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die bei doppelbahniger Anlieferung von Packungen die Verwendung eines Trockenrevolvers bei geringem konstruktivem Aufwand ermöglicht.The object of the invention is to provide a cigarette packaging machine of the type mentioned at the outset which, in the case of double-lane delivery of packs, enables the use of a drying turret with little design effort.

Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß die Zellen des Trockenrevolvers jeweils als in Umfangsrichtung nebeneinanderliegende, radial ausgerichtete Doppelzellen mit zwei Aufnahmeräumen zur Aufnahme von zwei Packungen ausgebildet sind und die Übergabeeinrichtung zwei achsparallel angeordnete Übergaberevolver mit Zellen sowie einen Doppelschieber umfaßt, wobei die beiden Übergaberevolver in derselben Ebene derart angeordnet sind, daß jeweils die beiden in der Übergabeposition zum Trockenrevolver befindlichen Zellen benachbart übereinander und mit den beiden Aufnahmeräumen einer aufnehmenden Doppelzelle des Trockenrevolvers fluchtend angeordnet sind.This object is achieved in that the cells of the dry turret are each designed as radially aligned double cells lying next to one another in the circumferential direction with two receiving spaces for receiving two packs, and the transfer device comprises two transfer turrets with cells arranged axially parallel and a double slide, the two of which Transfer turrets are arranged in the same plane in such a way that the two cells located in the transfer position to the dry turret are arranged adjacent to one another and in alignment with the two receiving spaces of a receiving double cell of the dry turret.

Durch die Verwendung von zwei speziell ausgebildeten Übergaberevolvern können die doppelbahnig angelieferten Packungen jeweils paarweise an Doppelzellen des Trockenrevolvers übergeben werden, so daß auch die Aufenthaltszeit der Packungen im Trockenrevolver immer gleich ist.By using two specially designed transfer turrets, the double-lane packs can be delivered in pairs to double cells of the dry turret, so that the time the packs stay in the dry turret is always the same.

Weitere Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind der nachfolgenden Beschreibung und den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Further refinements of the invention can be found in the following description and the subclaims.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand des in den beigefügten Abbildungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert.The invention is explained below with reference to the embodiment shown in the accompanying figures.

Fig. 1 zeigt schematisch in Draufsicht einen Ausschnitt einer Zigarettenverpackungsmaschine.Fig. 1 shows schematically in plan view a section of a cigarette packaging machine.

Fig. 2 zeigt schematisch Übergaberevolver der Zigarettenverpackungsmaschine von Fig. 1.FIG. 2 schematically shows the transfer turret of the cigarette packaging machine from FIG. 1.

Fig. 3 zeigt ausschnittweise und schematisch eine Übergabestation für Zigarettenpäckchen der Zigarettenverpackungsmaschine von Fig. 1 mit den Übergaberevolvern von Fig. 2.3 shows a detail and schematically of a transfer station for cigarette packets of the cigarette packaging machine from FIG. 1 with the transfer turrets from FIG. 2.

Auf der ausschnittweise dargestellten Zigarettenverpackungsmaschine werden Packungen, die einen von Innenpapier umhüllten Zigarettenblock enthalten und deren Außenpapier seitlich noch unverschlossen ist, hergestellt und an zwei parallel zueinander angeordnete Transportketten 1 abgegeben, um entlang von Längsbeleimeinrichtungen 2 und Faltweichen 3 zum Verkleben und Schließen der noch unfertigen Packungen im Seitenwandbereich hiervon geführt zu werden. Die fertigen Packungen 4 werden dann an den beiden Abgabeenden der Transportketten 1 in Zellen 5 von zwei den Transportketten 1 nachgeschalteten, parallelachsigen Übergaberevolvern 6 geschoben, und zwar gleichzeitig jeweils eine Packung 4 in die beiden außen befindlichen Zellen 5 der beiden Übergaberevolver 6. Die Übergaberevolver 6, die wie die Transportketten 1 auf einem Maschinengestell 7 angeordnet sind, sind schrittweise und gegenläufig um jeweils eine Zellenteilung der äquidistant angeordneten Zellen 5 drehbar.On the cigarette packaging machine shown in detail, packs containing a cigarette block covered by inner paper and the outer paper of which is still unsealed laterally are produced and delivered to two transport chains 1 arranged parallel to one another in order to glue and close the unfinished packs along longitudinal gluing devices 2 and folding switches 3 to be guided in the side wall area. The finished packs 4 are then pushed at the two delivery ends of the transport chains 1 into cells 5 by two parallel-axis transfer turrets 6 connected downstream of the transport chains 1, and at the same time one pack 4 into the two cells 5 of the two transfer turrets 6 located on the outside. The transfer turrets 6 which, like the transport chains 1, are arranged on a machine frame 7, can be rotated step by step and in opposite directions about a cell division of the equidistantly arranged cells 5.

Den beiden Übergaberevolvern 6 ist ein hier dreireihig ausgebildeter Trockenrevolver 8 nachgeordnet, der jeweils Doppelzellen 9 zur Aufnahme der Packungen 4 aufweist, um diese zunächst um 270° mitzunehmen, wonach sie in die nächste Reihe überschoben, um 360° mitgenommen, danach in die dritte Reihe überschoben, wiederum um 360° mitgenommen und dann auf einen Abförderer 10 ausgeschoben werden. Die Welle 11 des Trockenrevolvers 8 ist ebenfalls schrittweise um jeweils eine Doppelzellenteilung drehbar.Downstream of the two transfer turrets 6 is a three-row drying turret 8, each of which has double cells 9 for receiving the packs 4 in order to first take them along by 270 °, after which they are pushed over to the next row, taken along by 360 °, and then into the third row slid over again, taken along by 360 ° and then onto a discharge conveyor 10 be pushed out. The shaft 11 of the drying turret 8 can also be rotated step by step by a double cell division.

Die Doppelzellen 9 liegen in Umfangsrichtung des Trockenrevolvers 8 nebeneinander, sind radial ausgerichtet und axial offen sowie in drei Reihen in axialer Richtung hintereinander angeordnet.The double cells 9 lie next to one another in the circumferential direction of the drying turret 8, are radially aligned and axially open, and are arranged one behind the other in three rows in the axial direction.

Jeder der beiden Übergaberevolver 6 besitzt eine sechseckige Platte 12, die auf einer Welle 13 befestigt ist, die ein Antriebszahnrad 14 trägt. Mit jeder Seite der Platte 12 ist ein Zellenhalter 15, der eine Zelle 5 trägt, verschraubt. Die stirnseitig offenen und ansonsten geschlossenen Zellen 5, die die Packungen 4 in den beiden äußeren Positionen flach liegend von den Transportketten 1 übernehmen, sind jeweils seitlich versetzt bezüglich der jeweiligen Seite des sechseckigen Platte 12 angeordnet. Ferner sind die Drehachsen der beiden Übergaberevolver 6 erstens symmetrisch zur Horizontalebene 16 durch die Drehachse des Trockenrevolvers 8 entsprechend dem Abstand zwischen den Aufnahmeräumen 17 der Doppelzellen 9 des Trockenrevolvers 8 höhenversetzt und zweitens in einem horizontalen Abstand ebenfalls symmetrisch zur vertikalen Mittelebene der übernehmenden Doppelzelle 9 des Trockenrevolvers 8 derart zueinander angeordnet, daß sich jeweils die beiden inneren Zellen 5 benachbart übereinander und parallel zueinander befinden, so daß ihre offenen Stirnseiten mit den offenen Stirnseiten der einen jeweiligen Doppelzelle 9 des Trockenrevolvers 8 fluchten. Gleichzeitig wird hierdurch erreicht, daß die beiden in den Übernahmepositionen bezüglich der Transportketten 1 befindlichen Zellen 5 horizontal verlaufen und miteinander fluchten, so daß trotz der beiden in der Übergabeposition zum Trockenrevolver 8 befindlichen, übereinander angeordneten Zellen 5 die Transportketten 1 in gleicher Höhe angeordnet sind.Each of the two transfer turrets 6 has a hexagonal plate 12 which is attached to a shaft 13 which carries a drive gear 14. A cell holder 15, which carries a cell 5, is screwed to each side of the plate 12. The cells 5, which are open at the end and otherwise closed, and which take over the packs 4 from the transport chains 1 lying flat in the two outer positions, are each arranged laterally offset with respect to the respective side of the hexagonal plate 12. Furthermore, the axes of rotation of the two transfer turrets 6 are first symmetrically offset in height from the horizontal plane 16 by the axis of rotation of the drying turret 8 in accordance with the distance between the receiving spaces 17 of the double cells 9 of the drying turret 8, and secondly also at a horizontal distance also symmetrically to the vertical center plane of the receiving double cell 9 of the drying turret 8 arranged in such a way that the two inner cells 5 are adjacent to one another and parallel to one another, so that their open end faces are aligned with the open end faces of a respective double cell 9 of the drying turret 8. At the same time it is thereby achieved that the two cells 5 located in the transfer positions with respect to the transport chains 1 run horizontally and are aligned with one another, so that despite the two cells 5 located one above the other in the transfer position to the drying turret 8, the transport chains 1 are arranged at the same height.

Zwischen den beiden Übergaberevolvern 6, durch die die doppelbahnig angeförderten Packungen 4 zusammengeführt werden, und dem sich anschließenden Trockenrevolver 8 befindet sich ein Mundstück 18 mit zwei Durchtritten 19 zum Führen der Packungen 4 beim Überschieben aus den Zellen 5 mittels eines beispielsweise über einen Kurbeltrieb hin- und herbeweglichen Doppelschiebers 20 in eine symmetrisch zur Horizontalebene 16 befindliche Doppelzelle 9, während auf der dem Einschubende dieser Doppelzelle 9 abgewandten Seite ein Anschlag 21 für die in die Doppelzelle 9 eingeschobenen Packungen 4 angeordnet ist.Between the two transfer turrets 6, through which the double-lane packs 4 are brought together, and the subsequent drying turret 8, there is a mouthpiece 18 with two passages 19 for guiding the packs 4 when pushing them out of the cells 5 by means of, for example, a crank mechanism. and movable double slide 20 into a double cell 9 located symmetrically to the horizontal plane 16, while a stop 21 for the packs 4 inserted into the double cell 9 is arranged on the side facing away from the insertion end of this double cell 9.

Wenn die übernehmenden Zellen 5 der Übergaberevolver 6 horizontal ausgerichtet angeordnet sein sollen, ist eine gerade Zahl von Zellen 5 notwendig.If the receiving cells 5 of the transfer turret 6 are to be arranged horizontally, an even number of cells 5 is necessary.
