Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for folding of plate-shaped elements, especially cardboard.
  • the present invention further relates to a Device for folding plate-shaped elements for Execution of the procedure.
  • Plate-shaped elements such as cardboard boxes
  • folding of the cardboard boxes is usually necessary in order to enclose the object to be packed with the cardboard box.
  • Methods for folding cardboard boxes and corresponding devices are known in the prior art, in which adjacent cardboard sections are folded along a folding edge, fixed or movable counterpressure elements being present along the folding edge and at least one cardboard section being bent around the axis of the folding edge.
  • These known methods and devices for folding cardboard boxes initially have the disadvantage that the counterpressure elements lie inside the folded element after the folding process and have to be removed from there.
  • the element to be folded and / or the counter-pressure elements must be moved and controlled in such a way that they abut against one another during the folding, which results in an increased complexity of the method and the device for folding. Particularly when there are a large number of consecutive folding processes, these are often carried out in continuous operation, ie the objects to be folded are passed through a folding device one after the other during the folding process.
  • the arrangement of counterpressure elements is particularly disadvantageous in continuous operation, since the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art are amplified and the smooth passage of the elements to be folded is hindered by the counterpressure elements.
  • the present invention is based on the technical problem of providing a method for folding plate-shaped elements, in particular cardboard boxes, which eliminates the disadvantages of the prior art, in particular in continuous operation, and is simple to carry out.
  • a device for folding plate-shaped elements, in particular cardboard boxes is to be provided, which advantageously embodies the method.
  • the present invention is based on the idea that the force component for the turning process on the not folding section of the plate-shaped element separate, complex counter pressure elements, but through the Vertical component of the contact force between the second Pressure device and plate-shaped element balanced becomes.
  • the second printing device on the plate-shaped element can in the present invention to those in the prior art Technology required counter pressure elements along the Folding edge can be dispensed with.
  • the folded edge of the plate-shaped elements is as Easier to fold, preferably as a cross-sectional taper and / or perforation. In this way the Predefined position of the folded edge and the position for folding required force is significantly reduced.
  • the second printing device In order to control the folding process and the To reduce the design effort of the folding device takes the second printing device according to a development of the Invention during folding a stationary position, at which the second section of the plate-shaped elements is guided along. This is done with this training Do not fold the plate-shaped element by one Movement of the second printing device, but by the Movement of the plate-shaped element. Particularly advantageous is this procedure in the continuous process, because then the Continuous movement of the plate-shaped element through the Folding device at the same time as the folding process is being used.
  • Printing device at least one role in folding the second section of the plate-shaped element rests.
  • This arrangement is particularly advantageous if at the second printing device several in the direction of flow one behind the other rolls on the second Section of the plate-shaped element bear to a or more than one set of roles.
  • the roles or roller sets guide the plate-shaped element in the Pass through the folder and are simultaneously arranged such that the second section of the plate-shaped element by the rollers or roller sets is folded.
  • the alignment of the rollers or roller sets with respect to the plate-shaped element crucial.
  • the axes run the rollers when folded substantially parallel to that on the Roll adjacent second section of the plate-shaped Element.
  • the axes of the rollers point no right angle with respect to the fold edge, i.e. H. the Rollers are inclined in relation to the direction of flow.
  • the invention Due to the inclination of the rollers, they don't run only along the second section of the plate-shaped Elements, but there is a frictional force between the Rolls and the second section, the invention a generates second force component, which in the plane of second section runs and in the direction of the folded edge acts. In this way, the first section of the plate-shaped element to the first printing device pressed.
  • the amount of friction between the rollers and the second section of the plate-shaped elements can according to a development of the invention not only on the Arrangement of roles, but also on the interpretation of the Treads controlled with a certain coefficient of friction become.
  • high friction coefficients of the tread which may be made of rubber, for example, to sufficient pressing of the plate-shaped element to ensure the first printing device.
  • the geometry of the plate-shaped element or the desired folding angle to be able to adapt are the rolls around the folded edge pivotable and / or about an axis perpendicular to the second Section rotatable. This increases flexibility the folding device reached.
  • the first printing device also has at least one Has role that when folding on the first section is applied.
  • the plate-shaped element 1 and 2 is a folding device according to the invention 10 schematically for folding a plate-shaped element 1 shown.
  • the plate-shaped element 1 can for example, a cardboard box.
  • the plate-shaped Element 1 has a first section 3, a second Section 4 and a folded edge 2, which is between the first Section 3 and the second section 4 of the plate-shaped Element 1 lies.
  • the folded edge 2 has one Cross-sectional taper to the position of the folded edge 2 to predefine and fold the plate-shaped element 1 along the folded edge 2 to facilitate.
  • the folding device 10 has a first one in FIG Printing device 5, which on the first section 3 of the plate-shaped element 1 abuts, and a second Printing device 6, which on the second section 4 of the plate-shaped element 1 abuts.
  • the first and second Printing device 5, 6 are common on one Holding device 8 attached during folding a assumes a stationary position.
  • Both printing devices have rollers 5 ', 6', with their treads 9 on the first and second section 3, 4 of the plate-shaped Element 1 apply.
  • the running surfaces 9 of the rollers have a high coefficient of friction, for example, from Rubber.
  • the rollers 6 'of the second printing device 6 are around Folding edge 2 pivotable and about an axis perpendicular to second section 4 rotatable.
  • the folding device 10 is over the holding device 8 on a continuous system 9 for Transport and control of the plate-shaped element 1 attached during the folding process.
  • a continuous system 9 for Transport and control of the plate-shaped element 1 attached during the folding process.
  • a plurality of folding devices 10 in Direction of flow arranged one behind the other.
  • the Axes of the rollers 6 'of the various folding devices 10 different pivoting angles around the folded edge 2 as well different angles of inclination with respect to the folded edge 2 on.
  • the Continuous system 9 in FIG. 2 shows a lateral conveyor belt 11 on which on the plate-shaped element 1 on the second section 4 lies opposite side. Also it is possible that the continuous system 9 including the Folding device 10 and the plate-shaped element 1 symmetrical to the axis A-A shown in FIG. 2 are built up. In this way, two second sections 4 of the plate-shaped element 1 folded at the same time are no longer required during a conveyor belt 11 is.
  • the plate-shaped element 1 is so in the Continuous system 9 inserted that the first and second Printing device 5, 6 on the first and second respectively Section of the plate-shaped element 1 of the Fold device 10 arranged to rest.
  • the Continuous system 9 transports the plate-shaped element 1 in Throughput direction.
  • the first and second slide Section 3, 4 along the in the direction of flow first and second arranged in series Printing devices 5, 6 of the folding devices 10.
  • a second printing device 6 bends the second Section 4 of the plate-shaped element 1 around the folded edge 2 around.
  • the rollers 6 have a frictional force between the second Printing device 6 and the second section 4, the one second force component in the plane of the second section 4 generated in the direction of the folded edge 2 and the first section 3 of the plate-shaped element 1 thereby to the first Presses pressure device 5.
  • the second section 4 is folded by a certain angle, the height of which depends on the pivoting and tilting angle of the rollers 6 ′ of the respective second printing device 6. In this way, the plate-shaped element 1 is folded in a continuous process by a plurality of folding devices 10 arranged one behind the other until the desired folding angle is reached.
