Definitions
- the invention relates to a for closing original envelopes, bags or the like.
- certain plastic clip made of two parts, which comprise the end of the sheath gathered into a braid and can be locked together, a first part with a receiving space formed by side walls and transverse webs partially enclosing the braid and a second part the transverse webs of the first part bridged, and wherein the second part is articulated with its one transverse end to the corresponding transverse end of the first part by means of a film hinge, engages under a section of the first part with a shoulder in the closed state and has a latching element in the region of its other transverse end, which with a complementary latching element on interacts first part.
- the invention further relates to a device for closing such a clip or a plurality thereof, which are connected to form a chain.
- a plastic clip of this type known from US-A-4,275,485 has the shape of a (largely hollow) cylinder in the closed state and is divided along an axis-parallel plane.
- a rib in the second (cover) part protrudes against the receiving space in the larger first part, but only 'spikes' arranged thereon reach the passage for the braid material delimited on the top by the side cheeks.
- the problem addressed by the invention is countered by the fact that a crossbar running parallel but at a distance from the cross bar near the hinge connects the side cheeks of the first part and an arm adjacent to the film hinge at a corresponding distance on the second part in the closed state between the cross bar and the Crossbar and under the crossbar.
- the arm in cooperation with the traverse, ensures both secure guidance of the two clip parts during the closing process and - due to the positive locking in the closed state - a high closing force transmission in the hinge area.
- the closed clip has sufficient elasticity against different and / or changing loads due to the distance of the locking device from the receiving space, despite the high transferability of the closing force.
- the design of the new plastic clip is particularly advantageous in such a way that the first part has side cheeks which run transversely to the length of the plait with centrally arranged recesses which are aligned with one another, while on the second part which essentially covers the receiving space, a projection in the form of a parallel is formed on the side walls and protruding into the receiving space rib, so that the braid is wavy deflected in the locked state of the clip and is under closing pressure.
- Such a clip construction is basically known from WO 93/10012.
- One embodiment consists of two identical parts, which are rotated by 180 ° and are locked together, another of two different parts, an open frame being provided instead of a receiving space which is closed on the bottom.
- Both embodiments of this known plastic clip fulfill their task of automatically adapting to different volumes of the casing braid and, if appropriate, relieving any excess pressure which may occur in the inside of the casing during the sausage production without subsequent loss of tightness by elastic yielding, but - without the connection of the two parts - leaves the processability in fast-working capping machines left something to be desired.
- a secure latching and, above all, not interacting with the closing force exerted on the braid results when, according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the Sidewalls are also extended on the locking side and connected by a second crossbar and the locking arm is guided between the second crossbar and the other crossbar adjacent to it, the locking projection on the other crossbar advantageously being part of a tongue that attaches to the free edge of the crossbar is stretched back outside the trough and is spring-biased away from the crosspiece.
- the most general form of the device according to the invention for closing plastic clips of the type described above has:
- a stationary first holder for the one clip part b) a second holder for the other clip part, which can be pivoted about the hinge axis of the clip parts; and c) a drive leading the pivoting movement of the second holder from an open into a closed clip position.
- the brackets consist of receiving troughs, the configuration of which is adapted to the outer shape of the two clip parts, so that the closing force is uniformly introduced into the clip and the two clip parts are locked in a position firmly enclosing the braid. While the first holder for one clip part is stationary and this clip part is positioned such that the braid can be inserted into this clip part through a correspondingly arranged and designed feed slot, the other clip part is (as soon as this has been done) by means of the movable one second bracket around the articulated connection of the pivoted both clip parts and made the locking.
- the drive holding the second holder has a gearwheel which can be rotated by means of a meshing engaging drive member (toothed rack, pinion or the like) by a certain angle from the open position to the closed position of the clip.
- a pneumatic cylinder for example, which drives the drive member back and forth can serve as the drive source.
- a feed channel opening into the holders perpendicular to the pivot axis (the holder and thus the hinge axis of the clip parts) is provided for a sequence of clips and an abutment which favors the separation of the clip to be closed from a clip chain when pivoting the second holder.
- the clip that has just been processed is, as it were, automatically removed from the strand fed through the feed channel during the closing process.
- a positioning device which in each case advances the clip to be closed into the holders.
- it has a driver which engages in each part of the clip provided in the feed channel with each feed cycle, moves it into the first holder and then moves out of the clip and back into the starting position in an arcuate way.
- the driver is then moved out - perpendicular to the length of this clip part - so that it clears the space for the bag plait to be introduced and leaves the clip untouched on its way back to the starting position.
- the feed cycle of the driver is preferably cam-controlled, and advantageously in such a way that the driver on the piston is one pivotably mounted pressure medium cylinder is seated and a guide pin, which is also attached to the piston, engages in a link determining the driver movement.
- Figure 1 is a side view of a first embodiment of the clip in partial longitudinal section along the line I-I in Figure 2 (in the open state).
- Fig. 2 is a top view of the clip in Fig. 1;
- Fig. 3 is a representation comparable to FIG. 1
- Fig. 4 is a top view of the clip in Fig. 3;
- FIG. 5 shows a representation of the clip corresponding to FIG. 3 in the closed state (section line V-V in FIG. 6);
- FIG. 6 shows a central cross section along the line VI-VI in FIG. 5;
- FIG. 9 shows a representation corresponding to FIG. 3 of a plurality of clips connected to form a chain in a detail
- FIG. 11 shows a somewhat schematic side view of an overall device for closing clips in the starting position, but with a clip inserted into the locking mechanism;
- FIG. 12 shows a somewhat enlarged side view of the closing mechanism in the same position as in FIG. 11;
- FIG. 13 shows a representation corresponding to FIG. 12 in the closed state of the clip; 14 in three different views (a - c) the gear carrying the second holder for the other clip part;
- Fig. 16 in plan view and two partial sections (a - c) the link plate of the positioning device.
- the first part 1 consists essentially of a U-shaped wall, which is formed from parallel crosspieces 6 and a bottom 7 and serves as a receiving space 4 of the sleeve braid.
- 6 side cheeks 5 attach to the transverse webs and are connected to one another near the film hinge 3 by a crossmember 8 and at the opposite end by a crossmember 9; the crossbeams 8, 9 extend parallel to the transverse webs 6.
- the second part 2 has a curved cover section 11, which at one end merges into the film hinge 3, which on the other hand attaches to the cross member 8 of the first part.
- the width of the lid section 11 is slightly less than the clear width between the side cheeks 5 of the first part 1 (FIG. 2).
- an arcuate arm 13 is formed on the second clip part 2, which, when the clip is closed, rests with its concave inner side 14 against the correspondingly curved surface 15 of the crossmember 8.
- a locking arm 16 is formed, which is provided on the inside with locking projections in the form of locking steps 17, 18 and 19.
- the latching steps 17-19 engages via a corresponding latching step 20, 21 on a tongue 22 which adjoins the crossbar 9 on the upper edge.
- hard crossbar 6 attaches and extends into the passage 23 between this crossbar 6 and the crossbar 9.
- Adjacent crossbar 6 can be pivoted until the latching steps 17-19 suitable for the respective braid thickness engage on the latching arm 16 behind the latching steps 20, 21 on the tongue 22.
- the cross member 9 supports the locking arm 16 to the other side.
- the first part 1 has a trough-shaped receiving space 4 with side walls 5 running parallel to one another and transverse webs 6 running parallel to one another but also parallel to one another and a bottom 7.
- the side walls 5 are on both The ends are extended beyond the transverse webs 6 and are connected to one another near the film hinge 3 by a cross member 8 and at the opposite end by a cross member 9; the crossbeams 8, 9 extend parallel to the transverse webs 6.
- recesses 10 which are aligned with one another and do not reach the bottom 7 are formed in the side cheeks 5, into which the sleeve braid (not shown) is inserted during the closing process .
- a rib 12 is formed along the longitudinal center line of the lid section 11 and over a central part of its length, which in the closed state of the clip extends centrally between the side walls 5 and parallel to the latter into the receiving space 4 and the in the recesses 10 inserted sleeve braid deflected into the receiving space 4 undulating and firmly clamped.
- the arcuate arm 13 is, as it were, formed as an extension of the rib 12.
- a feed channel 32 for plastic clips in a chain or strand-like arrangement is provided in the housing 31 of the device shown in FIG. 11; each clip consists of one part 33 and the other part 34, which are hinged together at 35 by a film hinge. Easily separable webs 36 connect adjacent plastic clips to one another.
- the positioning device (to be described further below) has inserted the foremost plastic clip of the strand into the closing mechanism, which has a holder in the form of a receptacle 37 for one clip part 33 and one that is fixed in the housing on a gear 38 (see also FIG. 14) arranged second holder also in the form of a receiving trough 39 for the other clip part 34.
- the articulated connection between the two clip parts 33, 34 in the form of the film hinge 35 lies in the axis of rotation 40 of the gear 38.
