Taktzahl t der beiden taktweise arbeitenden Fördereinrichtungen 11, 15, die die Leistung der Kartoniermaschine 10 bestimmt, die Höhe h des Blisterstapels 3 sowie dessen Länge l zum Beispiel über eine Eingabetastatur vorgegeben werden. Die Steuereinrichtung 60 berechnet anhand der Eingangsgrößen t, h, l die erforderlichen Bewegungen des Einschiebers 40 und der Abdeckzunge 58 bzw. deren Servomotoren 32 bis 34. Selbstverständlich können die Bewegungen der Servomotoren 32 bis 34 auch als vorgegebene Funktionsverläufe bereits in der Steuereinrichtung 60 abgespeichert sein, die je nach vorgegebenen Eingangsgrößen t, h, l abgerufen werden. Diese Funktionsverläufe wurden dann vorab im Rahmen von Erprobungen bestimmt.The three servomotors 32 to 34 are separate from one Control device 60 controllable, which also for the Control of the two conveyors 11, 15 responsible is. This control device 60 can be used as input variables et al the speed or cycle number t of the two intermittently working conveyors 11, 15, the performance the cartoning machine 10 determines the height h of Blister stack 3 and the length l, for example, via a Input keyboard can be specified. The control device 60 calculated on the basis of the input quantities t, h, l the required movements of the inserter 40 and the Cover tongue 58 and their servomotors 32 to 34th Of course, the movements of the servomotors 32 to 34 also as predetermined functional courses already in the Control device 60 may be stored, depending on predetermined input variables t, h, l are retrieved. These Funktionsverläufe were then in advance in the context of Trials determined.

    Die Vorrichtung 10 arbeitet wie folgt: Von den beiden taktweise angetriebenen Fördereinrichtungen 11, 15 werden jeweils ein Blisterstapel 3 und eine Faltschachtel 2 der Vorrichtung 10 zugefördert, welche in Ausrichtung mit dem Einschieber 40 und der Abdeckzunge 58 zum Stillstand kommen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt befindet sich der Einschieber 40 in seiner zurückgezogenen Endposition außerhalb der Becher 17 und die Abdeckzunge 58 oberhalb der Becherwände 18 der Fördereinrichtung 15. Weiterhin sind die beiden Platten 24, 25 der auf der der Faltschachtel 2 zugewandten Seite derart geschwenkt, daß beim Zuführen der Faltschachtel 2 deren in Förderrichtung der Faltschachtel 2 vordere Seitenlasche 4 die beiden Platten 24, 25 nicht berührt. Wenn die Fördereinrichtung 11 mit der Faltschachtel 2 zum Stillstand gekommen ist, werden die beiden Platten 24, 25 parallel zueinander ausgerichtet, so daß sichergestellt ist, daß die beiden Seitenlaschen 4 der Faltschachtel 2 den Öffnungsquerschnitt zum Einschieben des Blisterstapels 3 freigeben. Gleichzeitig wird die Abdeckzunge 58 durch eine entsprechende Ansteuerung des zweiten Servomotors 33 nach unten auf die Oberseite des Blisterstapels 3 abgesenkt und der Einschieber 40 durch eine Ansteuerung des ersten Servomotors 32 in Richtung des Bechers 17 bewegt (Figur 3). Sobald der Einschieber 40 den Blisterstapel 3 berührt und diesen aus dem Becher 17 in Richtung der Faltschachtel 2 ausschiebt wird auch die Abdeckzunge 58 durch eine Ansteuerung des dritten Servomotors 34 synchron mit dem Einschieber 40 horizontal bewegt. Die synchrone Horizontalbewegung von Einschieber 40 und Abdeckzunge 58 ist erforderlich, damit es zwischen den einzelnen Blisterstreifen 1 im Blisterstapel 3 zu keinen Relativbewegungen kommt. Beim Ausschieben des Blisterstapels 3 aus dem Becher 17 trifft die der Faltschachtel 2 zugewandte Vorderseite des Blisterstapels 3 auf den von der Prospektzange bereitgehalteten Prospekt 5. Wesentlich dabei ist, daß das Auftreffen des Blisterstapels 3 am Prospekt 5 formatunabhängig immer zum selben Zeitpunkt in bezug auf die Prospektzuförderung erfolgt. Damit wird wie in Figur 2 dargestellt erreicht, daß der Blisterstapel 3 den senkrecht zur Einschieberichtung zugeführten Prospekt 5 immer an derselben Stelle, insbesondere mittig mitnimmt, damit dieser auch in der Faltschachtel 2 Platz findet. Danach rutscht beim weiteren Überschieben des Blisterstapels 3 dieser auf der Überschiebeplatte 21 entlang und wird in den offen gehaltenen Öffnungsquerschnitt der Faltschachtel 2 eingeschoben (Figur 4). The device 10 works as follows: Of the two cyclically driven conveyors 11, 15 are in each case a blister stack 3 and a folding box 2 of Device 10 fed, which in alignment with the Slider 40 and the cover 58 come to a standstill. At this time, the slider 40 is in its retracted end position outside the cup 17th and the cover tongue 58 above the cup walls 18 of the Furthermore, the two plates 24, 25 of the folding box 2 side facing such pivoted that when feeding the carton 2 whose in Conveying direction of the folding box 2 front side flap 4 the two plates 24, 25 are not touched. If the Conveyor 11 with the carton 2 to a standstill has come, the two plates 24, 25 are parallel aligned so that it is ensured that the two side flaps 4 of the carton 2 the Opening cross section for insertion of the blister stack 3rd release. At the same time, the cover tongue 58 is replaced by a corresponding control of the second servo motor 33 after lowered down the top of the blister stack 3 and the inserter 40 by a control of the first Servo motor 32 in the direction of the cup 17 moves (Figure 3). Once the inserter 40 touches the blister stack 3 and this from the cup 17 in the direction of the carton. 2 also expels the cover 58 by a Driving the third servo motor 34 in synchronism with the Inserter 40 moves horizontally. The synchronous Horizontal movement of the slider 40 and covering tongue 58 is required for it to be between each Blister strip 1 in Blisterstapel 3 to None Relative movements comes. When pushing out the blister stack 3 from the cup 17 hits the carton. 2 facing the front of the blister stack 3 on the of the Brochure pliers prepared brochure 5. Essential is that the impact of the blister stack 3 on the prospectus. 5 independent of format, always at the same time with respect to Prospectus promotion takes place. Thus, as in Figure 2 achieved reached that the blister stack 3 perpendicular to the insertion direction supplied leaflet 5 always on the same place, especially in the middle takes, so this also in the carton 2 place finds. After that slips on further pushing over the blister stack 3 of these the slide plate 21 along and is open in the held opening cross section of the folding box 2 inserted (Figure 4).

    In der Einschiebeendlage befinden sich die Abdeckzunge 58 innerhalb der Faltschachtel 2 und der Einschieber 40 unmittelbar vor der offenen Stirnseite der Faltschachtel 2 (Figur 1). Spätestens beim Erreichen der Einschiebeendlage wird die Abdeckzunge 58 zuerst horizontal aus dem Inneren der Faltschachtel 2 mittels des dritten Servomotors 34 herausgezogen. Der Zeitpunkt für den Beginn des Herausziehens der Abdeckzunge 58 aus der Faltschachtel 2 kann dabei formatabhängig erfolgen, wobei gewährleistet sein muß, daß sich die Abdeckzunge 58 außerhalb der Faltschachtel 2 befindet, sobald die Fördereinrichtung 11 die befüllte Faltschachtel 2 weiterfördert. Die unterschiedlichen Zeitpunkte für den Beginn des Herausziehens aus der Faltschachtel 2 ergeben sich aus unterschiedlichen gewünschten Taktzahlen t und der unterschiedlichen eingestellten Länge l der Blisterstreifen 1 bzw. der Faltschachtel 2. Tendenziell muß die Abdeckzunge 58 desto früher und/oder schneller aus der Faltschachtel 2 herausgezogen werden, desto höher die Taktzahl t ist (da dann die Stillstandszeit der Fördereinrichtung 11 relativ kurz ist) und je länger die Faltschachtel 2 bzw. die Länge l der Blisterstreifen 1 ist (da dann die Abdeckzunge 58 relativ weit in die Faltschachtel 2 hineinragt). In bezug auf den Einschieber 40 kann es vorteilhaft sein, mit dem Zurückfahren in seine ursprüngliche Position durch den ersten Servomotor 32 zumindest so lange zu warten, bis sich die Abdeckzunge 58 außerhalb des Kartons 2 befindet. Dadurch wird ein eventuelles Herausziehen von Blisterstreifen 1 aus der Faltschachtel 2 durch die Abdeckzunge 58 verhindert, da die Streifen 43 des Einschiebers 40 als Gegenhalt wirken.In the Einschiebeendlage are the Abdeckzunge 58 within the carton 2 and the pusher 40th immediately in front of the open end of the folding box 2 (Figure 1). At the latest when reaching the insertion end position At first, the covering tongue 58 becomes horizontal from the inside the folding box 2 by means of the third servo motor 34th pulled out. The time for the beginning of the Pulling the covering tongue 58 out of the folding box 2 can be format dependent, while being guaranteed must that the cover 58 outside the carton 2 is as soon as the conveyor 11, the filled Folding box 2 further promotes. The different ones Times for the beginning of pulling out of the Folding box 2 result from different desired clock numbers t and the different set length l of the blister strip 1 and the Folding box 2. The covering tongue 58 tends to have the more earlier and / or faster from the carton 2 are pulled out, the higher the number of cycles t is (da then the downtime of the conveyor 11 relative is short) and the longer the carton 2 or the length l the blister strip 1 is (because then the cover 58th protrudes relatively far into the folding box 2). In relation on the slide 40, it may be advantageous with the Return to its original position by the first servomotor 32 to wait at least until the cover tongue 58 is outside of the carton 2. Thereby is a possible withdrawal of blister strip 1 from the carton 2 prevented by the cover 58, since the strips 43 of the inserter 40 act as a counterhold.

    Wie aus der Figur 1 ersichtlich ist, befindet sich die Abdeckzunge 58 beim Herausziehen aus der Faltschachtel 2 unterhalb des Niveaus der Becherwände 18 der Fördereinrichtung 15. Weiterhin durchdringt der Ausschieber 40 den Becher 17. Da die Fördereinrichtung 15 zum Bereitstellen des nächsten Blisterstapels 3 erst weiterbewegt werden kann, wenn sich die Abdeckzunge 58 oberhalb und der Ausschieber 40 außerhalb des Bechers 17 befinden, wird die Abdeckzunge 58 nach dem Austreten aus dem Öffnungsquerschnitt der Faltschachtel 2 mittels des zweiten Servomotors 33 gleichzeitig auf ein Niveau oberhalb oder Becherwände 18 angehoben. Zur Erläuterung ist die Bewegungsbahn der Abdeckzunge 58 in der Figur 1 mit 61 bezeichnet.As can be seen from the figure 1, is the Covering tongue 58 when pulling out of the folding box 2 below the level of the cup walls 18 of the Conveyor 15. Furthermore, the pusher penetrates 40 the cup 17. Since the conveyor 15 for Providing the next blister stack 3 only can be moved when the cover 58th above and the pusher 40 outside of the cup 17th are, the cover 58 after exiting the Opening cross section of the carton 2 by means of the second Servomotor 33 at the same time to a level above or Cup walls 18 raised. For explanation, the Trajectory of the cover 58 in the figure 1 with 61 designated.

    Spätestens, wenn sich der Einschieber 40 und die Abdeckzunge 58 außerhalb der Seitenlaschen 4 der Faltschachtel 2 befinden, kann die Fördereinrichtung 11 die befüllte Faltschachtel 2 zur weiteren Bearbeitung weiterfördern. Weiterhin werden dann die beiden Platten 24, 25 auf der der Fördereinrichtung 11 zugewandten Seite zur Aufnahme der nachfolgenden, noch unbefüllten Faltschachtel 2 wieder nach innen geschwenkt (Figur 5).At the latest, when the slide 40 and the cover tongue 58 outside the side flaps 4 of the carton. 2 can be the conveyor 11, the filled Continue to transport folding box 2 for further processing. Furthermore, then the two plates 24, 25 on the Conveyor 11 facing side for receiving the following, still unfilled carton 2 again after swung inside (Figure 5).

    Sobald sich die Abdeckzunge 58 auf einem Niveau der Becherwände 18 und der Einschieber 40 wieder außerhalb des Bechers 17 befinden, kann auch die Fördereinrichtung 15 zum Bereitstellen des nächsten Blisterstapels 3 weitergetaktet werden. Aus den oben beschriebenen Bewegungsabläufen ist ersichtlich, daß in bezug auf die Leistung der Vorrichtung 10 das entscheidende Kriterium ist, daß die Fördereinrichtung 15 zum Bereitstellen des nächsten Blisterstapels 3 möglichst früh weitergetaktet werden kann, das heißt, daß sich insbesondere der Einschieber 40 wieder außerhalb des Bechers 17 befindet.Once the cover tongue 58 at a level of Cup walls 18 and the slide 40 again outside the Bechers 17 are also the conveyor 15 for Provision of the next blister stack 3 weiteretaktet become. From the movements described above is it can be seen that with respect to the performance of the device 10 the decisive criterion is that the Conveyor 15 for providing the next Blister stack 3 can be clocked as early as possible, that is, in particular, the slide 40 again outside the cup 17 is located.

    Bei einem vorgegebenen Faltschachtelformat und einer gewünschten Leistung kann die Steuereinrichtung 61 die Servomotoren 32 bis 34 derart ansteuern, daß das Einschieben des Blisterstapels 3 relativ langsam und daher schonend uns sicher erfolgt, während insbesondere das Zurückziehen des Einschiebers 40 mit relativ hoher Geschwindigkeit erfolgt. Es sind somit auch format- und leistungsabhängige Geschwindigkeitsverläufe des Einschiebers 40 und der Abdeckzunge 58 denkbar, die mit konventionellen, starr mechanischen Lösungen nicht realisierbar sind.For a given carton format and a desired performance, the controller 61, the Servo motors 32 to 34 control such that the insertion of the blister stack 3 is relatively slow and therefore gentle on us safely, while in particular the withdrawal of the Inserter 40 is carried out at a relatively high speed. There are thus format and performance dependent Velocities of the slider 40 and the Cover tongue 58 conceivable with conventional, rigid mechanical solutions are not feasible.

    Mittels der oben beschriebenen Vorrichtung 10 ist es möglich, Faltschachtelformate in einem Bereich von ca. 50mm bis 150mm Länge und einer Höhe bis ca. 100mm ohne Austausch oder Anpassung von Einschieber 40 oder Abdeckzunge 58 alleine durch eine entsprechende Ansteuerung der Servomotoren 32 bis 34 zu verarbeiten.It is by means of the device 10 described above possible, folding carton formats in a range of about 50mm up to 150mm length and a height up to 100mm without exchange or adjustment of pusher 40 or covering tongue 58 alone by an appropriate control of the Servomotors 32 to 34 to process.

    Ergänzend wird erwähnt, daß es selbstverständlich zur Leistungserhöhung auch denkbar ist, mehrere jeweils starr miteinander gekoppelte Einschieber 40 und Abdeckzungen 58 parallel zueinander anzuordnen, so daß jeweils mehrere Blisterstapel 3 gleichzeitig eingeschoben werden können. Auch ist es bei einfacheren Anwendungen denkbar, anstatt dreier separater Servomotoren 32 bis 34 nur einen oder zwei Servomotoren zu verwenden. In diesem Fall ist ein Servormotor zum Beispiel für die gesamte Bewegung der Abdeckzunge verantwortlich, wobei dessen Horizontal- oder Vertikalbewegung dann mechanisch von der jeweils anderen Bewegung abgeleitet wird.In addition it is mentioned that it goes without saying that Performance increase is also conceivable, several each rigid coupled with each other pusher 40 and cover tongues 58th to arrange parallel to each other, so that in each case several Blisterstapel 3 can be inserted simultaneously. It is also conceivable in simpler applications, instead three separate servomotors 32 to 34 only one or two To use servomotors. In this case is a Servo motor for example for the entire movement of the Cover tongue responsible, with its horizontal or Vertical movement then mechanically from each other Movement is derived.
