Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a continuous cutting apparatus for cutting a material, in particular a paper material, which is fed in form of sheet or roll.
  • the present invention is advantageously, but not exclusively, applied to the cutting of a plurality of angular reinforcements for boxes from a continuous paper roll; said boxes are normally used for storing and transporting fruit and vegetable products.
  • Apparatuses for continuously cutting sheets or a roll according to preset steps are known, so as to obtain blanks having predetermined lengths dictated by the intended use thereof.
  • WO-A2-2012/085866 describes a continuous cutting apparatus for cutting a material, in particular a paper material, which is fed in form of sheet or roll.
  • the apparatus comprises a support frame and an alternate cutting assembly for cutting the sheet or roll being fed.
  • the alternate cutting assembly comprises a guillotine cutting device of the swinging type, which accompanies the paper material to be cut along a tract of its path with a speed that is equal to the feeding speed of the sheet or roll during its movement through the cutting apparatus itself.
  • a guillotine cutting device of the swinging type which accompanies the paper material to be cut along a tract of its path with a speed that is equal to the sheet (or roll) feeding speed during the movement thereof through the apparatus itself in order to obviate the aforesaid drawbacks.
  • a continuous cutting apparatus for cutting a material is provided as claimed in claim 1 or in any one of the claims directly or indirectly depending on claim 1.
  • numeral 10 indicates, as a whole, a continuous cutting apparatus for cutting a material, in particular a paper material, which is fed in form of sheets (or roll), provided according to the teachings of the present invention.
  • the cutting apparatus 10 comprises a support frame 20, which can be substantially ascribed to the assembly of a vertical plate 21 fastened to a horizontal plate 22.
  • the cutting apparatus 10 further comprises a carriage assembly 30 which is adapted to slide on a pair of tracks 31, 32 according to a horizontal direction in two ways identified by a double-headed arrow (F1) ( figure 1 ).
  • the carriage assembly 30 is pushed/pulled by a moving mechanism 40, a portion of which is integral with the aforesaid vertical plate 21, as will be seen.
  • the moving mechanism 40 comprises a first electric motor assembly 41 fastened to an outer face 21A ( figure 4 ) of the vertical plate 21.
  • a through hole is obtained on the vertical plate 21, which is crossed in use by a shaft projecting from an inner face 21B of the vertical plate 21.
  • a disc 42 is keyed onto such a shaft ( figure 1 ), a tie rod 43 being eccentrically pivoted thereon by means of a joint 44.
  • the moving mechanism 40 ends with a further connecting rod 45 pivoted on the carriage assembly 30 by means of a joint 46A.
  • An intermediate member 46 is provided between the tie rod 43 and the connecting rod 44, which member is pivoted on the vertical plate 21 by means of a pin 47 kinetically connected to the tie rod 43 by means of a joint 48, and to the connecting rod 45 by means of a joint 49.
  • the moving mechanism 40 is substantially nothing more than a rocker arm adapted to oscillate the carriage assembly 30 on tracks 31, 32 according to the double-headed arrow (F1).
  • the cutting apparatus 10 also comprises an alternate cutting assembly 50, which is also supported by the vertical plate 21.
  • the carriage assembly 30 comprises a carriage 33 with a horizontal platform 33A on which a counter-blade 34 is fastened facing the alternate cutting assembly 50.
  • the horizontal platform 33A is provided with a pair of section bars 35, 36, each of which is slidingly paired with a respective track 31, 32.
  • a portal 37 is mounted to carriage 33, comprising in turn two lateral uprights 37A, 37B which are connected at the top by a crosspiece 37C.
  • the alternate cutting assembly 50 comprises a blade-carrier_ slide 51, which is adapted to vertically slide with respect to the two lateral uprights 37A, 37B due to the prismatic sliding coupling established between the blade-carrier slide 51 and the lateral uprights 37A, 37B.
  • a prismatic sliding coupling is obtained by means of a sliding block 52 ( figure 1 ).
  • the alternate cutting assembly 50 further comprises a cutting blade 53, mounted to the blade-carrier slide 51, again facing the mentioned counter-blade 34 which, as mentioned, is integral with the horizontal platform 33A of carriage 33.
  • the alternate cutting assembly 50 is adapted to operate on any type of roll or sheet; in particular, the cutting assembly 50 may operate on a multilayer card roll of any cross section, for example a card having an L-shaped cross section, or an almost open U-shaped cross section.
  • the cutting blade 53 which is conveniently selected according to the cut to be performed, is adapted to cut the roll, or sheet, according to straight cuts (TD) ( figure 8 ), or according to shaped cuts (TS) ( figure 9 ).
  • a through hole is obtained on the vertical plate 21, which hole is crossed in use by a shaft projecting from an inner face 21B of the vertical plate 21.
  • a disc 55 is keyed onto such a shaft ( figure 1 ), a first free end of a tie rod 56 being eccentrically pivoted thereon by means of a joint 57.
  • a second free end of the tie rod 56 is pivoted on the blade-carrier slide 51 by means of a joint 58.
  • disc 55 and tie rod 56 there are means for adjusting the pivoting point in order to affect the actual raising of slide 53 with respect to the horizontal platform 33A.
  • means for adjusting the pivoting point in order to affect the actual raising of slide 53 with respect to the horizontal platform 33A.
  • using means known in the state of the art allows to vary the length of the tie rod 56.
  • the mechanism used in the cutting assembly 50 is similar to a connecting rod/crank mechanism which transforms the rotary motion according to an arrow (R2) into a vertical translation motion identified by the double-headed arrow (F2).
  • the sheets (or roll) to be cut can be fed towards the cutting apparatus 10 by means of a first conveyor belt (not shown), while the cut blanks can be discharged by means of a second conveyor belt (not shown).
  • the feeding speeds of the whole sheets can be synchronized with the speed of carriage 33, with the speed of the blade-carrier slide 51, and with the discharge speed of the blanks obtained by cutting the sheets by means of an electronic control unit (not shown) and by implementing known programming systems.
  • the main advantages of the cutting apparatus object of the invention consist, on the one hand, in being able to accurately adjust the cutting pitch (and thus, in the end, to accurately adjust the length of the blank obtained through two consecutive cuts in sequence), and on the other, in drastically reducing the jamming probability of the cutting assemblies.
