Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour la mise en forme et l'assemblage partiel en continu d'un conditionnement, à partir d'un flan prédécoupé et refoulé en un matériau semi-rigide tel que le carton ou le carton ondulé.The present invention relates to a method and a device for shaping and partially continuous assembly of a package, from a pre-cut blank and repressed in a semi-rigid material such as cardboard or corrugated cardboard.
Elle concerne plus particulièrement la réalisation par ce procédé d'un conditionnement comprenant une pluralité de parois latérales articulées entre elles par des premières lignes de pliage et dont certaines au moins comportent, à au moins l'une de leurs extrémités, un volet dit "rabat" articulé sur la paroi attenante par une seconde ligne de pliage, les secondes lignes de pliage associées aux volets disposés à une même extrémité étant disposées dans un même plan transversal du conditionnement, de manière que les volets rabattus soient disposés sensiblement dans ce plan au contact des volets contigus et assemblés et verrouillés dans cette position par des moyens connus dans la technique.It relates more particularly to the realization by this method of a package comprising a plurality of side walls hinged together by first fold lines and at least some of which comprise, at at least one of their ends, a flap said "flap "articulated on the adjoining wall by a second fold line, the second fold lines associated with the flaps arranged at the same end being arranged in the same transverse plane of the packaging, so that the folded flaps are disposed substantially in this plane in contact with flaps contiguous and assembled and locked in this position by means known in the art.
Les conditionnements auxquels s'applique ce procédé sont notamment du type général des caisses américaines ou des demi-caisses américaines, de prismes droits à arêtes parallèles et à section polygonale, ou encore de caisses en forme de tronc de pyramide à base triangulaire, quadrangulaire et, plus généralement, polygonale et, après mise en volume, ils restent ouverts à l'une de leurs extrémités, de sorte que l'on peut procéder immédiatement à leur remplissage.The packages to which this process applies are in particular of the general type of American boxes or American half-boxes, straight prisms with parallel edges and polygonal section, or truncated truncated pyramid boxes with triangular base, quadrangular and , more generally, polygonal and, after setting volume, they remain open at one of their ends, so that we can proceed immediately to their filling.
Le document EP-A-1 256 441 décrit un procédé selon le préambule de la revendication 1.EP-A-1 256 441 discloses a process according to the preamble of claim 1.
Divers procédés de fabrication en continu ont déjà été proposés dans ce but dans la technique, mais on est toujours à la recherche d'un procédé fiable et facile à mettre en oeuvre, même à des cadences élevées, qui n'utilise que des moyens mécaniques aisément disponibles.Various continuous manufacturing processes have already been proposed for this purpose in the art, but one is always looking for a reliable and easy to implement process, even at high rates, which uses only mechanical means readily available.
C'est ainsi que l'on connaît, par FR 2 770 445 A, un procédé et un dispositif pour la mise en volume de caisses ou analogues à partir d'une découpe à plat en carton ou en carton ondulé, dans lesquels les différentes opérations de mise en forme de la découpe et de collage d'une patte de jonction s'effectuent autour d'un mandrin à section polygonale analogue à celle de la caisse à réaliser, lequel est animé d'un mouvement de rotation dans un plan vertical par rapport à un axe horizontal, ce mandrin s'arrêtant à diverses stations (voir pages 4, ligne 23 à la page 5, ligne 17), avant de revenir à son point de départ.Thus,
La présente invention vise à améliorer de tels procédés en utilisant un conformateur tel qu'un mandrin, autour duquel un flan prédécoupé et refoulé en un matériau semi-rigide est replié, mis en forme et assemblé par collage, pendant que le mandrin se déplace en continu, pendant ces différentes opérations, sans aucune interruption de son mouvement.The present invention aims to improve such methods by using a shaper such as a mandrel, around which a blank precut and repressed in a semi-rigid material is folded, shaped and assembled by gluing, while the mandrel moves in continuous, during these different operations, without any interruption of its movement.
L'invention a par conséquent pour objet un procédé selon la revendication 1.The subject of the invention is therefore a process according to claim 1.
Les différents conformateurs peuvent être portés par un équipage mobile se déplaçant suivant un trajet fermé.The various shapers may be carried by a moving equipment moving along a closed path.
L'invention a également pour objet un dispositif selon la revendication 3.The invention also relates to a device according to claim 3.
Les conformateurs, en nombre adapté à la vitesse de formation des conditionnements, servent d'appui aux parois et rabats du flan, lorsque ceux-ci sont soumis à la poussée des moyens qui les amènent dans leur position d'assemblage sur le conformateur, et ils permettent également l'assemblage par collage ou jonctionnement de ces éléments. Ces moyens peuvent être par exemple des guides fixes ou mobiles ou des volets commandés.The shapers, in number adapted to the rate of formation of the packages, serve to support the walls and flaps of the blank, when they are subjected to the thrust of the means which bring them into their assembly position on the shaper, and they also allow assembly by gluing or joining of these elements. These means may be for example fixed or mobile guides or controlled shutters.
Une forme de mise en oeuvre du procédé conforme à l'invention va être décrite ci-après dans son application à un emballage à section rectangulaire du type dit "caisse américaine", mais il sera clair pour l'homme de l'art qu'elle s'applique à tout autre type d'emballage à rabats et à section polygonale, comportant ou non des parois parallèles.One form of implementation of the method according to the invention will be described below in its application to a rectangular section of the type called "American box", but it will be clear to those skilled in the art that it applies to any other type of packaging with flaps and polygonal section, with or without parallel walls.
Dans la description qui va suivre, on se réfèrera aux dessins schématiques annexés, sur lesquels :
- La figure 1 est une vue schématique de dessus du dispositif ;
- La figure 2 illustre la mise en volume et l'assemblage partiel d'un conditionnement autour du conformateur.
- Figure 1 is a schematic top view of the device;
- Figure 2 illustrates the setting volume and partial assembly of a package around the shaper.
Dans l'exemple illustré par les dessins, le flan de départ en carton ondulé comprend quatre parois 1, articulées entre elles par des premières lignes de pliage parallèles et à chacune des extrémités desquelles sont articulés par des lignes de pliage perpendiculaires aux précédentes des volets dits "rabats", respectivement 2 et 3, destinés à être rabattus perpendiculairement aux parois attenantes.In the example illustrated by the drawings, the corrugated cardboard blank comprises four walls 1 articulated to one another by first parallel fold lines and at each end of which are articulated by fold lines perpendicular to the preceding so-called shutters. "Flaps", respectively 2 and 3, intended to be folded perpendicularly to the adjacent walls.
Une languette 4 de collage, qui est articulée par une ligne parallèle aux premières lignes de pliage suivant le bord libre d'une paroi 1 non attenante à la paroi contiguë est destinée à venir se coller contre la face interne de cette paroi contiguë.A
Les flans prédécoupés et refoulés sont extraits un à un d'un margeur 10 et sont préalablement repliés en J, comme on le voit sur la figure 2, avant de venir coiffer un conformateur 5 dont la surface externe est sensiblement complémentaire de la surface interne de la caisse américaine à réaliser, le flan replié en J venant ainsi au contact de trois parois contiguës 1 de ce flan.The blanks precut and repressed are extracted one by one from a
Le conformateur 5 est entraîné pas-à-pas, sans interruption de mouvement, par un système d'entraînement à des stations successives, entre lesquelles ou dans lesquelles sont prévus des moyens tels que des guides fixes ou mobiles ou des volets mobiles commandés, qui amènent la quatrième paroi 1 en contact avec le conformateur 5, avec la languette 4 préalablement encollée au contact de la face interne de la paroi 1 contiguë. Ces parois sont ensuite pressées contre le conformateur 5, de manière à les rendre solidaires des parois qui sont à leur contact.The
De préférence, la paroi 1 qui vient se coller contre la languette 4 préalablement encollée est rabattue et appliquée de façon simple contre cette languette par contact avec un guide fixe au cours de son déplacement sous la sollicitation du conformateur 5.Preferably, the wall 1 which sticks against the
Les rabats 2 qui sont disposés en des positions contiguës à une extrémité du conformateur, après avoir été encollés, sont alors rabattus perpendiculairement aux parois attenantes, pour venir en contact mutuel et être ainsi assemblés par collage, tandis que les rabats 2 disposés à l'autre extrémité restent dans le prolongement des parois attenantes.The
La caisse américaine 6 ainsi mise en volume et partiellement assemblée, mais avec une extrémité ouverte, est ensuite dégagée du conformateur 5 par coulissement relatif de l'un par rapport à l'autre, puis elle est redressée et évacuée par un convoyeur 7 vers un poste de remplissage, tandis que le conformateur 5 est ramené à sa position de départ pour reprendre un nouveau cycle de mise en forme et d'assemblage d'un nouveau flan.The
Bien entendu, une pluralité de conformateurs 5 sont utilisés en synchronisation, chacun atteignant à tour de rôle l'une des stations du cycle de montage et d'assemblage.Of course, a plurality of
Chaque conformateur 5 est porté par un équipage mobile 8, qui est entraîné en continu, sans interruption de son mouvement, par un système moteur, non représenté, suivant un trajet fermé, matérialisé par des guides 9, de profil approprié.Each
Le procédé décrit ici concerne un emballage parallélépipédique, mais il s'applique aussi bien à des emballages à seulement trois parois ou plus de quatre parois, les lignes de pliage entre les parois pouvant être parallèles, comme décrit ici, ou disposées en oblique pour former un volume de forme générale trapézoïdale, ou de prisme, ou de pyramide tronquée.The method described here relates to a parallelepiped package, but it applies equally well to packagings with only three walls or more than four walls, the fold lines between the walls being parallel, as described herein, or arranged obliquely to form a volume of generally trapezoidal shape, or prism, or truncated pyramid.
