Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Spendevorrichtung für Etikettiermaschinen sowie eine Etikettiermaschine.The invention relates to a dispenser for labeling and a labeling machine.
Etikettiermaschinen werden zum Aufbringen von Etiketten auf Flaschen verwendet.Labeling machines are used to apply labels to bottles.
Eine Spendevorrichtung für Etikettiermaschinen sowie eine Etikettiermaschine ist bereits aus der Deutschen Offenlegungsschrift
Derartige Vorrichtungen, bei denen die Etiketten einzeln einem Magazin entnommen und zur Flasche transportiert werden sind recht aufwendig, da die Etiketten während des gesamten Transportweges vom Magazin zur Flasche einzeln zu handlen sind.Such devices in which the labels are individually removed from a magazine and transported to the bottle are quite expensive, since the labels are to be handled individually during the entire transport from the magazine to the bottle.
Diesen Nachteil umgehen demgegenüber der Anmelderin bekannte Etikettiermaschinen bei denen die Etiketten auf einem mehrere Etiketten tragenden Trägerband aufgebracht sind.By contrast, this disadvantage is avoided by the Applicant known labeling machines in which the labels are applied to a carrier tape carrying a plurality of labels.
Bei derartigen Gestaltungen wird das Trägerband - z.B. kontinuierlich - zu einer Stelle bewegt, an der ein Etikett bzw. Etiketten in Richtung einer Flasche bzw. in Richtung der Flaschen abgegeben werden sollen. Dort wird das Trägerband mittels einer sog. Spendekante stark umgelenkt, so dass sich das jeweils auf dem Trägerband klebende Etikett an der Spendekante vom Trägerband ablöst und einzeln auf die Flasche aufgebracht werden kann. Bei den der Anmelderin bekannten Etikettiermaschinen, bei denen die Etiketten unter Verwendung eines mehrere Etiketten tragenden Trägerbandes in Richtung der Flaschen bewegt werden, ist die sog. Spendekante typischer Weise vertikal ausgerichtet, so dass sie im Wesentlichen in Richtung der Achse von vorbeilaufenden, aufrecht stehenden Flaschen verläuft. Dies ermöglicht, dass die Etiketten so orientiert sich von dem Trägerband lösen, dass sie auf einfache Weise auf einen jeweils im Wesentlichen zylindrischen Flaschenbauch derart aufgebracht werden können, dass sie mit ihrer Längserstreckungsrichtung in Umfangsrichtung des Flaschenbauches verlaufen. Dies hat sich bislang gut bewährt.In such designs, the carrier tape - e.g. continuously - moved to a location where a label or labels are to be delivered in the direction of a bottle or in the direction of the bottles. There, the carrier tape is strongly deflected by means of a so-called. Donation edge, so that the adhesive on the carrier tape label on the dispensing edge detaches from the carrier tape and can be applied individually to the bottle. In the applicant known labeling machines in which the labels are moved in the direction of the bottles using a multi-label carrier tape, the so-called. Donor edge is typically vertically aligned so that they are substantially in the direction of the axis of passing, upright bottles runs. This allows the labels so orientated to be detached from the carrier tape, that they can be easily applied to a respective substantially cylindrical bottle belly in such a way that they extend with their longitudinal direction in the circumferential direction of the bottle belly. This has worked well so far.
Erschwert ist das Aufbringen der Etiketten bei der vorerwähnten Gestaltung allerdings, wenn Etiketten auf sich nach oben verjüngende Flaschenhälse aufgebracht werden sollen. Um diesen Schwierigkeiten entgegen zu wirken, wird derzeit - nach zumindest interner Kenntnis der Anmelderin die Etikettiermaschine für das Abgegeben von Etiketten, die auf den Flaschenhals aufgebracht werden sollen, relativ zu den vorbeibewegten Flaschen in eine gekippte Stellung gebracht. Dies verbessert das Zuführen der Etiketten in Richtung der mit einem Etikett im Bereich ihres Flaschenhalses zu versehenden Flaschen, ist allerdings auch aufwendig.Complicated is the application of the labels in the aforementioned design, however, when labels are to be applied to upwardly tapering bottle necks. To counteract these difficulties, currently - at least internally known to the applicant - the labeling machine for the dispensing of labels to be applied to the bottle neck, placed in a tilted position relative to the vorbeobewegener bottles. This improves the feeding of the labels in the direction of the bottles to be provided with a label in the region of their bottleneck, but is also expensive.
Die bekannte Gestaltung ist nur mit paralleler Trägerbandführung möglich. Weiter ist dort bei Gebinden mit Exklusivausstattung ein teueres Sonderstativ erforderlich. Dabei wird ein Sonderstativ mit bis zu sechs verstellbaren Achsen eingesetzt. Die Ergonomie ist dabei teilweise sehr schlecht und eine Bedienbarkeit ist nur mit Stativ möglich. Teilweise ist auch keine automatische Verklebung möglich.The known design is possible only with parallel carrier tape guide. Furthermore, there is an expensive special tripod required for containers with exclusive equipment. A special tripod with up to six adjustable axles is used. The ergonomics is sometimes very bad and operability is only possible with a tripod. In some cases, no automatic bonding is possible.
Daher liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine flexible, aber dennoch wenig aufwendige Möglichkeit für das Etikettieren von Flaschen zu schaffen.Therefore, the invention has the object to provide a flexible, but still inexpensive way for labeling bottles.
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Spendevorrichtung gemäß Anspruch 1 vorgeschlagen. Eine erfindungsgemäße Etikettiermaschine ist Gegenstand des Anspruchs 10. Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.According to the invention, a dispensing device according to claim 1 is proposed. A labeling according to the invention is the subject of
Es wird also insbesondere eine Spendevorrichtung für Etikettiermaschinen zum Aufbringen von über ein mehrere Etiketten tragendes Trägerband zugeführte Etiketten auf Flaschen mit einem Spendearm und einem Spendekopf vorgeschlagen. Der Spendekopf ist dabei an dem Spendearm angeordnet, und zwar insbesondere unmittelbar an dem Spendearm angeordnet. Der Spendekopf bildet eine Spendekante aus. Diese Spendekante ist für die Umlenkung des Trägerbandes vorgesehen, und zwar derart, dass durch dieses Umlenken ein jeweiliges aktuell an dieser Spendekante befindliches Etikett sich von dem Trägerband löst.Thus, in particular, a dispensing device for labeling machines for applying labels supplied via a carrier tape carrying a plurality of labels to bottles with a dispensing arm and a dispensing head is proposed. The dispensing head is arranged on the dispensing arm, in particular arranged directly on the dispensing arm. The dispensing head forms a dispensing edge. This dispensing edge is provided for the deflection of the carrier tape, in such a way that a respective currently located at this dispensing edge label dissolves from the carrier tape by this deflection.
Die Spendevorrichtung ist insbesondere auch für das Aufbringen von Etiketten im Bereich des Flaschenhals einer Flasche, der beispielsweise sich nach oben verjüngt, vorgesehen. Bei bestimmten Ausstattungen kann er auch nach unten verjüngt ausgebildet sind. Insbesondere ist die Spendevorrichtung für das flexible Anpassen an unterschiedlich im Raum verlaufende Oberflächenbereiche von Flaschen, die mit einem Etikett versehen werden sollen, vorgesehen, wie beispielsweise für das Aufbringen von Bauchetiketten, einerseits, und das Aufbringen von Halsetiketten, andererseits.The dispensing device is in particular also provided for the application of labels in the region of the bottleneck of a bottle which, for example, tapers upwards. For certain equipment he can also after are tapered down. In particular, the dispenser is provided for flexible fitting to different in-space surface areas of bottles to be provided with a label, such as for the application of belly labels, on the one hand, and the application of neck labels, on the other.
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Spendekante und / oder der Spendekopf für das Einstellen der Bewegungsrichtung der sich von dem Trägerband ablösenden Etiketten schwenkbar.According to the invention, the dispensing edge and / or the dispensing head can be pivoted for adjusting the direction of movement of the labels detaching from the carrier tape.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass diese Schwenkbarkeit ein 2-dimensionales Verschwenken, als ein Verschwenken in einer Ebene, ermöglicht; es kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, das diese Schwenkbarkeit ein 3-dimensionales Verschwenken, als ein Verschwenken im Raum, ermöglicht.It can be provided that this pivoting allows a 2-dimensional pivoting, as a pivoting in a plane; but it can also be provided that this pivoting a 3-dimensional pivoting, as a pivoting in space allows.
Dabei wird bevorzugt in Kauf genommen, dass sich das Trägerband über seine Erstreckungsrichtung zumindest geringfügig verdrillt bzw. das Trägerband wird wenigstens abschnittsweise entlang der Spendevorrichtung derart geführt, dass es dabei geringfügig verdrillt bzw. vertwistet wird.
Mit anderen Worten wird durch das Schwenken des Spendekopfes bzw. der Spendekante eine Änderung der Verdrillung bzw. Vertwistung des Trägerbandes bezogen auf die Transportstrecke des Trägerbandes bewirkt.It is preferably accepted that the carrier tape at least slightly twisted over its extension direction or the carrier tape is at least partially guided along the dispensing device so that it is slightly twisted or vertwistet.
In other words, by the pivoting of the dispensing head or the dispensing edge, a change in the twisting or Vertwistung of the carrier tape based on the transport path of the carrier tape causes.
Bisher war man davon ausgegangen, dass eine derartige Verdrillung nicht möglich ist, da sich die Etiketten ansonsten auch an anderer Stelle bedingt durch die Verdrillung ungewollt von dem Trägerband ablösen können. In aufwendigen Untersuchungen hat die Anmelderin überraschend festgestellt, dass ein gewisses Maß an Verdrillung des Trägerbandes mit den daran angeordneten Etiketten möglich ist, ohne dass sich die Etiketten, bedingt durch diese Verdrillung von dem Trägerband ablösen. Dieses noch zulässige Maß an Verdrillung ist dabei insbesondere auch von der Breite des Trägerbandes abhängig.Previously, it was assumed that such a twist is not possible, since otherwise the labels can also unintentionally detach from the carrier tape at another point due to the twisting. In extensive investigations, the applicant has surprising found that a certain amount of twist of the carrier tape with the labels arranged thereon is possible without the labels, due to this twist detach from the carrier tape. This still permissible degree of twist is particularly dependent on the width of the carrier tape.
Vorzugsweise ist der Spendekopf für das Einstellen der Bewegungsrichtung der sich von dem Trägerband ablösenden Etiketten schwenkbar an dem Spendearm angeordnet. Hierzu kann beispielsweise eine zweite Gelenkverbindung zwischen dem Spendekopf und dem Spendearm vorgesehen sein. Diese zweite Gelenkverbindung kann beispielsweise mittels eines Drehgelenks oder eines reinen Schwenkgelenks, also eines Gelenks, das nur eine hinsichtlich des Schwenkwinkels begrenzte Verschwenkbarkeit ermöglicht, oder mittels eines Kugelgelenks gestaltet sein, oder von einem jeweils solchen gebildet sein. Besonders bevorzugt ist die Koppelstelle zwischen dem Spendekopf und dem Spendearm als zweite Gelenk bzw. als zweite Gelenkverbindung ausgebildet, wobei dieses zweite Gelenk bzw. diese zweite Gelenkverbindung insbesondere das vorerwähnte zweite Gelenk bzw. die vorerwähnte zweite Gelenkverbindung ist.Preferably, the dispensing head for adjusting the direction of movement of the detachment from the carrier tape labels is pivotally mounted on the dispensing arm. For this purpose, for example, a second articulated connection can be provided between the dispensing head and the dispensing arm. This second articulated connection can be designed, for example, by means of a swivel joint or a pure swivel joint, ie a joint which only permits pivotability limited in terms of the swivel angle, or by means of a ball joint, or can be formed by a respective one.

Es ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass das Trägerband getwistet bzw. verdrillt ist. Die Spendevorrichtung kann auch als Spendeaggregat bezeichnet werden.It is provided in particular that the carrier tape is twisted or twisted. The dispensing device can also be referred to as a dispensing unit.
Bei einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist der Spendekopf gegenüber dem oben erwähnten Gelenk in einer senkrecht zu einer Erstreckungsrichtung des sich zwischen dem Gelenk und dem Spendekopf erstreckenden Spendearmes schwenkbar. Dabei ist es möglich, dass der besagte Abschnitt des Spendearms drehbar gegenüber dem Gelenk angeordnet ist, es wäre jedoch auch denkbar, dass der Abschnitt des Spendearms starr gegenüber dem Gelenk angeordnet ist und der Spendekopf wiederum drehbar gegenüber dem Abschnitt des Spendearms ist.In a further preferred embodiment, the dispensing head is pivotable relative to the above-mentioned joint in a direction perpendicular to an extension direction of the extending between the joint and the dispensing head dispensing arm. It is possible that said portion of the dispensing arm is rotatably disposed relative to the joint, but it would also be conceivable that the portion of the dispensing arm is arranged rigidly relative to the joint and the dispensing head is in turn rotatable relative to the portion of the dispensing arm.
Zumindest vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung bieten insbesondere folgende Vorteile: Sie bieten eine hohe Flexibilität und es können fast alle Ausstattungen mit Selbstklebeetiketten verarbeitet werden. Ferner sind sie kostengünstig, da nur ein Standardstativ erforderlich ist. Überdies ist die Bedienbarkeit sehr gut und die Bauform ergonomisch. Weiter ist eine automatische Verklebung möglich. Diese Gestaltung ist auch für Modulmaschinen geeignet. Mit einem Spender bzw. einer Spendervorrichtung sind fast alle Ausstattungswünsche verarbeitbar.At least advantageous developments of the invention offer in particular the following advantages: They offer high flexibility and almost all equipment can be processed with self-adhesive labels. Furthermore, they are inexpensive, since only a standard tripod is required. Moreover, the operability is very good and the design ergonomic. Furthermore, an automatic bonding is possible. This design is also suitable for modular machines. With a dispenser or a dispenser almost all equipment requirements can be processed.
Im Folgenden sollen nun Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung näher erläutert werden, wobei anzumerken ist, dass die Erfindung keineswegs hierauf beschränkt sein soll. Dabei zeigen:
- Fig. 1 bis Fig. 4
- verschiedene Ansichten einer beispielhaften, erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäßen Ettikettiermaschine, die eine beispielhafte erfindungsgemäße Spendevorrichtung aufweist, und zwar jeweils in teilweiser schematischer Ansicht.
- Fig. 1 to Fig. 4
- different views of an exemplary, inventive embodiment of a labeling invented Inventive comprising an exemplary dispensing device according to the invention, each in a partial schematic view.
Die Figuren zeigen eine beispielhafte Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäßen Etikettiermaschine 1 in schematischer, teilweiser Ansicht.The figures show an exemplary embodiment of a labeling machine 1 according to the invention in a schematic, partial view.
Diese Etikettiermaschine 1 weist eine Spendevorrichtung 2 zum Aufbringen von über ein mehrere Etiketten tragendes Trägerband (nicht gezeigt) zugeführte Etiketten auf Flaschen, insbesondere Flaschenhälse und Flachenbäuche, auf. Die Spendevorrichtung weist einen Spendearm 10 und einen Spendekopf 12 auf, der an dem Spendearm 10 angeordnet ist und eine Spendekante 14 für die Umlenkung des Trägerbandes zum dadurch bedingten Ablösen eines jeweiligen Etiketts aufweist. Ferner weist der Spendekopf 12 eine Anpressrolle 22 zum Andrücken des Etiketts an die Flasche auf.This labeling machine 1 has a
Der Spendearm 10 weist ein Gelenk 16 zum Anlenken an einem Maschinengestell, ein innerhalb des Spendearms 10 angeordnetes Gelenk 18, sowie ein von den beiden vorgenannten Gelenken verschiedenes Gelenk 20 (vgl. Doppelpfeil P) auf, das für das Einstellen der Bewegungsrichtung der sich von dem Trägerband ablösenden Etiketten eine Schwenkbarkeit des Spendekopfes 12 ermöglicht. Mit anderen Worten ist der Spendearm 12 hier zweiteilig ausgebildet. Über das Gelenk 18 sind die beiden Abschnitte des Spendearms 12 schwenkbar gegenüber einander ausgebildet.The
Die Gesamtlänge des Spendearms kann bevorzugt variieren. So wäre es beispielsweise möglich, dass derjenige Abschnitt des Spendearms 10, der zwischen dem Spendekopf 12 und dem Gelenk 18 liegt, hinsichtlich seiner Länge veränderbar ist, beispielsweise teleskopartig ausgebildet ist.The total length of the donor arm may preferably vary. Thus, it would be possible, for example, that the portion of the dispensing
Wie oben erwähnt, ist in Abhängigkeit von der Breite des Trägerbandes nur eine bestimmte Verdrillung bzw. Vertwistung des Trägerbandes möglich, ohne dass sich die Etiketten bedingt durch diese Verdrillung bzw. Vertwistung von dem Trägerband ablösen. Genauer ist bei breiteren Trägerbändern eine geringere Verdrillung möglich als bei schmaleren Trägerbändern. Durch eine Verlängerung des Spendearmes in demjenigen Bereich, in dem die Verdrillung auftritt, kann die Verdrillung bezogen auf die Transportstrecke des Trägerbandes verringert und damit der Gefahr eines Ablösens der Etiketten bedingt durch die Verdrillung entgegengewirkt werden.As mentioned above, depending on the width of the carrier tape only a certain twist or Vertwistung the carrier tape is possible without the labels detach due to this twist or Vertwistung of the carrier tape. More precisely, a smaller twist is possible with wider carrier tapes than with narrower carrier tapes. By extending the dispensing arm in the region in which the twist occurs, the twist can be reduced relative to the transport path of the carrier tape and thus counteract the risk of detachment of the labels due to the twisting.
Wie durch den in
Die Bezugszeichen 34 und 36 beziehen sich auf Umlenkrollen, welche das Etikettenband umlenken, jedoch derart umlenken, dass sich während dieser Umlenkung die Etiketten nicht von dem Trägerband ablösen. Das Bezugszeichen 32 bezieht sich auf ein Verbindungsglied zwischen dem Spendekopf 12 und dem Spendearm 10, wobei dieses Verbindungsglied 32 bewirkt, dass die Spendekante 14 in der Figurenebene von
Sämtliche in den Anmeldungsunterlagen offenbarten Merkmale werden als erfindungswesentlich beansprucht, sofern sie einzeln oder in Kombination gegenüber dem Stand der Technik neu sind.All disclosed in the application documents features are claimed as essential to the invention, provided they are new individually or in combination over the prior art.
