Abstract

A second filling hopper (2) beside the first filling hopper (1) is positioned to one side of the conveyor. Both hoppers are alternately filled from the feeder (11). An auxiliary conveyor is parallel to, and travels in the same direction as, the first conveyor and is positioned near the two filler hoppers, under the second filler hopper. Both filler hoppers each have a closeable discharge opening and, upstream from the first filler hopper, have a pusher arrangement pushing the containers towards the auxiliary conveyor. Downstream from the second filler hopper, near the auxiliary conveyor, is a further pusher pushing the filled containers towards the conveyor. A flap (16) swivelling on an axle (17) parallel to the conveyors has walls (14,15) directly next to the two filler hoppers.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Beladeeinrichtung für in einem Strom von auf einer Fördereinrichtung ankommende Aufnahmebehälter, wobei die Aufnahmebehälter im Bereich eines über eine Zuführeinrichtung mit einem abzugebenden Gut beschickbaren Fülltrichter anhaltbar sind.The invention relates to a loading device for in a stream of receiving containers arriving on a conveying device, the receiving containers being able to be stopped in the region of a filling funnel which can be fed with a material to be dispensed via a feeding device.

Bei einer Art von bekannten derartigen Beladeeinrichtungen wird die Fördereinrichtung, z.B. ein Förderband, angehalten, wenn sich ein Aufnahmebehälter unter dem einzigen Fülltrichter befindet, wobei die Aufnahmabehälter mit geringem Abstand voneinander auf der Fördereinrichtung gefördert werden können. Dabei ist es auch erforderlich, den Fülltrichter, die eine stets offene Abgabeöffnung aufweisen, zu jenem Zeitpunkt zu beschicken, zu dem sich ein Aufnahmebehälter unter dem Fülltrichter befindet, bzw. die Fördereinrichtung muß so lange angehalten werden, bis der entsprechende Aufnahmebehälter befüllt ist.In one type of known loading devices of this type, the conveyor, e.g. a conveyor belt stopped when a receptacle is located under the single hopper, the receptacles being able to be conveyed on the conveyor at a short distance from each other. It is also necessary to load the hopper, which always has an open discharge opening, at the point in time at which a receptacle is located under the hopper, or the conveying device must be stopped until the corresponding receptacle is filled.

Dabei ergibt sich jedoch der Nachteil, daß häufig relativ große Massen, die durch die Fördereinrichtung und die Aufnahmebehälter bedingt sind, beschleunigt und abgebremst werden müssen, wodurch ein entsprechender Energiebedarf gegeben ist. Außerdem ergibt sich aufgrund der notwendigen Sicherheitszeiten eine relativ langsame Beladung.However, there is the disadvantage that relatively large masses, which are caused by the conveying device and the receptacle, often have to be accelerated and braked, as a result of which there is a corresponding energy requirement. In addition, due to the necessary safety times, the loading is relatively slow.

Weiters sind auch Beladeeinrichtungen bekannt, bei denen die Fördereinrichtung durch eine Staurollenbahn gebildet ist. Dabei ist es allerdings erforderlich zwischen ankommenden Aufnahmebehältern entsprechend große Abstände bei deren Aufgabe auf die Fördereinrichtung vorzusehen, woraus eine entsprechende Größe der Einrichtung resultiert. Da auch bei solchen Einrichtungen entsprechende Sicherheitszeiten eingehalten werden müssen, um eine sichere Befüllung der einzelnen Aufnahmebehälter sicherzustellen und den Verlust von Ladegut zu vermeiden, ergibt sich auch bei einer solchen Beladeeinrichtung eine nur relativ bescheidene Ladekapazität.Furthermore, loading devices are known in which the conveying device is formed by an accumulation roller conveyor. However, it is necessary to provide correspondingly large distances between incoming receptacles when they are placed on the conveying device, which results in a corresponding size of the device. Since appropriate safety times must also be observed in such devices in order to ensure safe filling of the individual receptacles and to avoid the loss of cargo, the loading capacity of such a loading device is only relatively modest.

Ziel der Erfindung ist es, diese Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine Beladeeinrichtung der eingangs erwähnten Art vorzuschlagen, die einen kompakten Aufbau ermöglicht und mit der ein rasches Beladen der einzelnen Aufnahmebehälter möglich ist.The aim of the invention is to avoid these disadvantages and to propose a loading device of the type mentioned at the beginning, which enables a compact structure and with which the individual receptacles can be loaded quickly.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dies bei einer Beladeeinrichtung der eingangs erwähnten Art dadurch erreicht, daß ein zweiter, seitlich der Fördereinrichtung neben dem ersten angeordneter Fülltrichter vorgesehen ist und beide Fülltrichter wechselweise von der Zuführeinrichtung beschickbar sind und im Bereich der beiden Fülltrichter eine neben der Fördereinrichtung zu dieser parallel verlaufendende und in gleicher Richtung fördernde zusätzliche Fördreinrichtung vorgesehen ist, die unterhalb des zweiten Fülltrichters angeordnet und diesem zugeordnet ist, wobei die beiden Fülltrichter je eine verschließbare Abgabeöffnung aufweisen und stromauf des ersten Fülltrichters im Bereich der Fördereinrichtung eine in Richtung zur zusätzlichen Fördereinrichtung hin fördernde Ausschiebeeinrichtung zum Überschieben der Aufnahmebehälter auf die zusätzliche Fördereinrichtung und stromab des zweiten Fülltrichters im Bereich der zusätzlichen Fördereinrichtung eine in Richtung zur Fördereinrichtung hin fördernde weitere Ausschiebeeinrichtung zum Überschieben der gefüllten Aufnahmebehälter auf die Fördereinrichtung angeordnet ist.According to the invention, this is achieved in a loading device of the type mentioned at the outset in that a second hopper, which is arranged to the side of the conveyor next to the first, is provided, and both hopper can be alternately fed by the feed device, and in the area of the two hopper, one that runs parallel to the conveyor device in this area and in the same direction conveying additional conveying device is provided, which is arranged below and is assigned to the second hopper, the two hopper each having a closable delivery opening and upstream of the first hopper in the area of the conveying device a pushing-out device conveying towards the additional conveying device for pushing over the receptacle onto the additional conveyor and downstream of the second hopper in the area of the additional conveyor one towards the conveyor device further conveying device is arranged for pushing the filled receptacle onto the conveyor.

Durch die vorgeschlagenenen Maßnahmen ist es möglich, die einzelnen Aufnahmebehälter mit geringen gegenseitigen Abständen auf die Fördereinrichtung aufzugeben und vor dem Erreichen der beiden Fülltrichter diese durch Ausschieben eines jeden zweiten Aufnahmebehälters auf die zusätliche Fördereinrichtung überzuführen. Dabei können die beiden Fördereinrichtungen zweckmäßigerweise als Staurollenbahnen ausgebildet sein. Weiters ist es durch die mit verschließbaren Abgabeöffnungen versehenen Fülltrichter auch möglich, jeden Fülltrichter während der Zeit der Ladegutabgabe des zweiten Trichters zu beschicken, wodurch die erforderlichen Sicherheitszeiten zu keiner Unterbrechung des Beladevorganges mehr führen, sondern während dieser Zeiten, die Beladung eines weiteren Aufnahmebehälters vorbereitet werden kann. Dadurch ist eine erhebliche Steigerung der Beladekapazität einer solchen Einrichtung, verglichen mit den herkömmlichen Beladeeinrichtungen erzielbar.The proposed measures make it possible to place the individual receptacles on the conveying device with small mutual distances and, before reaching the two filling funnels, to transfer them to the additional conveying device by pushing out every second receptacle. The two conveying devices can expediently be designed as accumulation roller conveyors. Furthermore, the filling funnels provided with closable delivery openings also make it possible to load each filling funnel during the time when the second hopper is being loaded, so that the required safety times no longer lead to an interruption of the loading process, but during this time the loading of a further receptacle is prepared can. As a result, a considerable increase in the loading capacity of such a device can be achieved compared to the conventional loading devices.

Weiters kann vorgesehen sein, daß eine zwischen einem Abwurfende der Zuführeinrichtung und den beiden nebeneinander angeordneten Fülltrichtern eine um eine parallel zu den Fördereinrichtungen verlaufende Achse schwenkbare Klappe vorgesehen ist, die mit ihrem einen Ende an die oberen Ränder der einander benachbarten Wände der beiden Fülltrichter unmittelbar anschließt.Furthermore, it can be provided that one between a discharge end of the feed device and the two side by side arranged filling funnels a flap is provided which is pivotable about an axis running parallel to the conveying devices and which directly connects with its one end to the upper edges of the adjacent walls of the two filling funnels.

Durch diese Maßnahmen ergibt sich der Vorteil einer in konstruktiver Hinsicht sehr einfachen Umschaltvorrichtung zur Steuerung der Beladung der einzelnen Fülltrichter. Dabei kann die Klappe mit einer Steuerung der Verschlüsse der beiden Fülltrichter gekoppelt sein.These measures result in the advantage of a switching device for controlling the loading of the individual filling funnels, which is very simple in terms of design. The flap can be coupled with a control of the closures of the two filling funnels.

Die Erfindung wird nun anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen:

The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing. Show:
Fig. 1
schematically a loading device according to the invention in view and
Fig. 2
the loading device according to FIG. 1 in plan view.

Bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Beladeeinrichtung sind zwei Fülltrichter 1, 2 vorgesehen, von denen einer einer als Staurollenbahn ausgebildeten Fördereinrichtung 3 und der zweite einer zu dieser parallel führenden zusätzlichen Fördereinrichtung 4 zugeordnet ist, die lediglich im Nahebereich der beiden Fülltrichter 1, 2 vorgesehen und ebenfalls als Staurollenbahn ausgebildet ist.In a loading device according to the invention, two filling hoppers 1, 2 are provided, one of which is assigned to a conveyor device 3 designed as an accumulation roller conveyor and the second to an additional conveyor device 4 leading parallel to this, which is only provided in the vicinity of the two filling hoppers 1, 2 and also as an accumulation roller conveyor is trained.

Wie in der Fig. 2 schematisch durch Pfeile 5, 6 angedeutet ist, ist stromauf der beiden Fülltricher 1, 2 im Bereich der Fördereinrichtung 3 eine Ausschiebeeinrichtung (nicht näher dargestellt), die z.B. durch einen Riemenausschieber gebildet sein kann, vorgesehen, mit der jeder zweite der über die Fördereinrichtung 3 zugeführte Aufnahmebehälter 7 auf die zusätzliche Fördereinrichtung 4 übergeschoben werden kann. Dadurch können die Aufnahmebehälter 7 in dichter Folge den beiden Fülltrichtern 1, 2 zugeführt werden.As indicated schematically in FIG. 2 by arrows 5, 6, upstream of the two filling hoppers 1, 2 in the area of the conveying device 3 is a push-out device (not shown in more detail) which, for example, can be formed by a belt ejector, provided, with which every second one of the receptacles 7 fed via the conveying device 3 can be pushed onto the additional conveying device 4. As a result, the receptacles 7 can be fed to the two filling funnels 1, 2 in close succession.

Stromab der Fülltrichter ist im Bereich der zusätzlichen Fördereinrichtung 4 eine durch die Linie 9, bzw. den Pfeil 10 sybolisch angedeutete weitere Ausschiebeinrichtung vorgesehen, die zum Überschieben der Aufnahmebehälter 7 von der zusätzlichen Fördereinrichtung 4 auf die Fördereinrichtung 4 dient.Downstream of the filling funnel, in the area of the additional conveying device 4, a further push-out device, indicated by the line 9 or arrow 10, is provided, which serves to push the receptacles 7 from the additional conveying device 4 onto the conveying device 4.

Die Beschickung der Fülltrichter 1, 2, die beide mit einer verschließbaren Abgabeöffnung versehen sind, erfolgt mittels einer als Steigförderer ausgebildeten Zuführeinrichtung 11, deren Antrieb mit 18 bezeichnet ist und die die aus einer Kommissionieranlage 12 über einen Förderer 13 kommenden, bestimmten Aufnahmebehältern 7 zugeordneten Waren zu den Fülltrichtern 1, 2 fördert. Der Verschluß der Abgabeöffnungen der beiden Fülltrichter 1, 2 kann zweckmäßigerweise durch eine Jalousie gebildet sein.The filling funnels 1, 2, both of which are provided with a closable discharge opening, are fed by means of a feed device 11 designed as a rising conveyor, the drive of which is designated 18 and which assign the goods coming from a picking system 12 via a conveyor 13 to certain receiving containers 7 to the hopper 1, 2 promotes. The closure of the discharge openings of the two filling funnels 1, 2 can expediently be formed by a blind.

Dabei ist eine im Bereich der einander benachbarten und parallel zu den Fördereinrichtungen 3, 4 verlaufenden Wände 14, 15 der Fülltrichter 1, 2 eine umschaltbare Klappe 16 angeordnet, deren Achse 17 zwischen den Wänden 14, 15 gehalten ist. Dabei schließt das untere Ende der Klappe 16 unmittelbar an die beiden oberen Ränder der einander benachbarten Wände 1,4, 15 der Fülltrichter 1, 2 an, sodaß sich ein im wesentlichen spaltfreier Anschluß der Klappe 16 an die beiden Wände 14, 15 ergibt. Dies bedeutet, daß allfällige Spalte zwischen diesen Teilen deutlich kleiner als die kleinsten Stücke sind, mit denen die Aufnahembehälter 7 zu befüllen sind.In this case, a switchable flap 16 is arranged in the region of the walls 14, 15 of the filling funnels 1, 2 which are adjacent and run parallel to the conveying devices 3, 4 and whose axis 17 is held between the walls 14, 15. The lower end of the flap 16 directly adjoins the two upper edges of the adjacent walls 1, 4, 15 of the filling funnels 1, 2, so that there is an essentially gap-free connection of the flap 16 to the two walls 14, 15. This means that any gaps between these parts are significantly smaller than the smallest pieces with which the receptacles 7 are to be filled.

Im Betrieb werden die Aufnahmebehälter 7 mittels der Fördereinrichtung 3 in dichter Folge den Fülltrichtern 1, 2 zugeführt, wobei vor diesen jeder zweite Aufnahmebehälter 7 auf die zusätzliche Fördereinrichtung 4 übergeschoben wird. Im Bereich unter den Fülltrichtern 1, 2 werden die Aufnahmebehälter angehalten, während die Fördereinrichtungen 3, 4 weiterlaufen, sodaß sich der Abstand zum nächsten Aufnahmebehälter 7 vermindert.In operation, the receptacles 7 are fed to the filling funnels 1, 2 in close succession by means of the conveying device 3, each second receptacle 7 being pushed onto the additional conveying device 4 in front of them. In the area under the filling funnels 1, 2, the receptacles are stopped while the conveying devices 3, 4 continue to run, so that the distance to the next receptacle 7 is reduced.

Da nur jeder zweite Aufnahmebahälter auf die zusätzliche Fördereinrichtung übergeschoben wird, kann sich immer nur ein Aufnahmebehälter 7 unter einem Fülltrichter 1, 2 befinden, sodaß auch nur stets ein Fülltrichter 1, 2 entleert werden kann. der jeweils andere Fülltrichter 2, 1 wird während dieser Zeit bei geschlossener Abgabeöffnung mittels der Zuführeinrichtung 11 bestückt.Since only every second receptacle is pushed onto the additional conveyor, only one receptacle 7 can be located under a hopper 1, 2, so that only one hopper 1, 2 can be emptied. the other hopper 2, 1 is loaded during this time with the delivery opening closed by means of the feed device 11.

Ist die Beladung z.B. des Fülltrichters 2 beendet und die Abgabeöffnung des Fülltrichters 1 nach dessen Entleerung wieder geschlossen, so wird die Klappe 16 in die in der Fig. 1 strichliert dargestellte Lage umgesteuert und der Fülltrichter 1 befüllt, während sich ein weiterer Aufnahmebehälter 7 auf der Fördereinrichtung 3 dem Fülltrichter 1 nähert. Der über den Fülltrichter 2 befüllte Aufnahmebehälter 7 wird gleichzeitig über die zusätzliche Fördereinrichtung 4 aus dem Bereich des Fülltrichters 2 abtransportiert und in weiterer Folge auf die Fördereinrichtung 3 übergeschoben.If the loading, for example, of the hopper 2 has ended and the discharge opening of the hopper 1 is closed again after it has been emptied, the flap 16 is reversed into the position shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1 and the hopper 1 is filled while another receiving container 7 is opened the conveyor 3 approaches the hopper 1. The receptacle 7 filled via the filling funnel 2 is simultaneously transported out of the area of the filling funnel 2 via the additional conveying device 4 and subsequently pushed onto the conveying device 3.

Nach Beendigung der Befüllung des Fülltrichters 1 wird die Klappe wieder in die mit vollen Linien dargestellte Lage umgesteuert und der Fülltrichter 2, der inzwischen entleert worden ist, nach dem Schließen seiner Abgabeöffnung wieder befüllt.After the filling of the filling funnel 1 has ended, the flap is reversed into the position shown in full lines and the filling funnel 2, which has meanwhile been emptied, is refilled after its dispensing opening has been closed.
