Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、例えば包装装置において物品を包材用のフィルムで包装する場合に使用される包材用フィルムの溶断溶着方法及びその装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
例えば、包装装置に使用される包材用フィルムを溶断溶着する手段は、図8(イ)に示す如く一対のロール53に巻き取られたフィルム50を、繰り出し自在に緊張させ、供給される物品51がそのフィルム50を通過することにより、該物品51にフィルム50を巻付け、フィルム50の重合部分50aを溶断溶着装置52で溶断溶着するようにしている。
【0003】
この溶断溶着装置52は、同図(ロ)に示す如くヒーターにより加熱された溶断刃54と、該溶断刃54でフィルム50が押圧されるシール受台55と、溶断刃54及びシール受台55を接離させるシリンダー56a ,56b とから構成されている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上記溶断溶着装置52では、溶断刃54とシール受台55によるフィルム50の溶断溶着時に、ロール53がフィルム50を巻き戻す際の張力等によりフィルム50が緊張するため、フィルム50の溶断溶着が確実に行えず、溶着不良を起こしたり、また、溶着部分の強度を十分に得ることができず、運搬時等の取扱い時に物品51を包装したフィルム50の溶着部分が不用意に破断してしまうおそれがあった。
【0005】
上記問題はフィルムが厚手のものである場合に、特に顕著となり、従って、例えば厚手のフィルム50が使用される電線を巻き取ってなる物品51の包装に際しては、不向きであった。
【0006】
本発明は、上記従来の問題点に鑑みてなされたもので、特に厚手のフィルムで物品を包装する場合であっても、フィルムを確実に溶断溶着することができ、その溶着部分の強度を向上させることができるようにすることを課題とする。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、上記課題を解決するために包材用フィルムの溶断溶着方法及びその装置としてなされたもので、包材用フィルムの溶断溶着方法及としての特徴は、ヒーター13により加熱される溶断刃12と、繰り出される包材用のフィルム3が該溶断刃12により押圧されるシール受台10とを備えた溶断溶着装置により、該フィルム3を溶断溶着する包材用フィルムの溶断溶着方法であって、先ず、溶断刃12に対して両側にそれぞれ突設されたフィルム押圧体30でフィルム3をシール受台10に押圧し、各フィルム押圧体30を互いに内側に湾曲させることにより、フィルム3を弛ませ、次に、前記溶断刃12をフィルム3に押圧することにより該弛んだ部分を溶断溶着し、その後に、前記フィルム3をフィルム押圧体30で押圧保持した状態で溶断刃12を後退させ、フィルム3の溶断溶着部3bにエアーを噴出して冷却させた後に、両フィルム押圧体30を後退させることにある。
【0008】
従って、仮にフィルム3が緊張されても、フィルム3を弛ませてこの弛んだ部分を溶断溶着するため、溶断溶着を何ら支障なく行える。しかも、その後に、エアーで溶断部分を冷却するので、溶着部分に十分な強度が迅速に得られる。
【0009】
また、包材用フィルムの溶断溶着装置としての特徴は、ヒーター13により加熱される溶断刃12と、該溶断刃12により包材用のフィルム3が押圧されるシール受台10とを備え、これら溶断刃12とシール受台10によりフィルム3を溶断溶着するようにした包材用フィルムの溶断溶着装置において、前記溶断刃12は作動手段24により移動自在なヒーター本体9に取付けられ、該ヒーター本体9には、溶断刃12に対して両側にフィルム押圧体30がそれぞれ設けられ、各フィルム押圧体30は、ヒーター本体9のシール受台10への接近時に、該溶断刃12よりも先にフィルム3を押圧できるように、溶断刃12よりも突出しており、しかも、フィルム押圧体30の先端部31は、フィルム3の押圧保持時にフィルム3を弛ませるべく、互いに内側に湾曲自在な弾性体から構成され、前記溶断刃12はフィルム3の弛んだ部分3aを溶断溶着すべく、フィルム押圧体30に対して相対移動自在に設けられてなることにある。
【0010】
しかも、溶断刃12は金属性の筒状体からなり、該溶断刃12内にヒーター13と該ヒーター13の温度を検出する温度センサ22が収納され、しかも、溶断刃12はその先端部12aが露出するように断熱体15で被覆されてなることにある。
【0011】
従って、ヒーター13での溶断刃12の加熱温度が外部に放熱し難くなり、一定の温度が維持でき、ヒータ加熱のための電力消費が少なくなると共に、温度センサ22がヒーター13温度を正確に検出するので、溶断溶着に最適な温度を容易に制御でき、フィルム3の溶断溶着がより確実となる。
【0012】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の一実施の形態について図面に従って説明する。
図6において、1a,1bは長尺状の熱収縮性フィルム3を巻き取ってなる一対の原反用ロールで、該原反用ロール1a,1bは、例えば電線等の金属製の線条体をコイル状に巻回した環状の物品5が、ガイドローラ2,2 間を図示省略の搬送装置により供給位置Aから下方に移動する際に、フィルム3を繰り出し可能である。
【0013】
6は前記ガイドローラ2,2 に対して物品の供給位置Aと反対側(下方側)に設けられた溶断溶着装置で、該溶断溶着装置6は、図1〜図5に示す如くヒーター部8を有するヒーターユニット7と、該ヒーターユニット7が押圧されるシール受台10とを備える。ヒーター部8は水平方向に設けられ、長尺状の金属性チューブからなる溶断刃12に複数列に屈曲した線状の加熱用シースヒーター13が挿通され、該溶断刃12を断熱シート15で挟み、これらシースヒーター13、溶断刃12及び断熱シート15を、断面コ字状のケース16内に収納すると共に、ケース16に螺合された押さえネジ19で押さえ板18を介して締結固定したものである。
【0014】
前記溶断刃12の先端部12aは、前記断熱シート15から露出され、且つ、断面V字状に突設した状態で長手方向全長にわたって形成されており、この先端部12がフィルム3を溶断溶着する機能を有する。尚、溶断刃12の長さは、フィルム3の幅長よりも長く設定されている。
【0015】
更に、前記ケース16は長尺状のヒーター本体9の前面に設けられた凹部20に嵌入されており、該ケース16とヒーター本体9とは前後方向(フィルム3に接離する方向)に相対移動自在となっている。22は前記溶断刃12に挿通された温度センサーとしての熱電対で、ヒーターユニット7は、該熱電対22がシースヒーター13の温度を検出することにより、フィルム3を溶断溶着する温度が常時最適な設定温度となるように制御されている。
【0016】
24は前記ヒーター本体9を出退させるための作動手段としてのシリンダで、そのシリンダロッド25の先端部25a は小径に形成され、その先端部25a がヒーター本体9の中央部で且つ後方に突設された小径部9aに摺動自在に挿通され、且つ、前記ケース16に固定されている。27は該小径部9a及びシリンダロッド25の先端部25a に外嵌されたコイルスプリングで、その一端がヒーター本体9の後面28に当接し、且つ、他端が前記シリンダ24の段差面25b に当接し、コイルスプリング27はヒーター本体9をシリンダロッド25に対して前方に付勢している。尚、26は左右一対のガイドでヒーター本体9後面28に連結されている。
【0017】
30,30は溶断刃12に対して上下方向の両側に位置するように、ヒーター本体9の前面部に嵌入された一対の高弾性ゴムからなる板状のフィルム押圧体で、互いに平行となるように、ヒーター本体9の長手方向に設けられている。尚、各フィルム押圧体30の長さは、フィルム3の幅長よりも長くなっている。各フィルム押圧体30の先端部31は、ヒーター本体9よりも突出しており、しかも、前記ケース16の後面がヒーター本体9の凹部20の底面に当接するケース16の後退時に、溶断刃12の先端部12aよりも突出するようになっている。各フィルム押圧体30の先端面31aは、押圧体30の外側に向けて先端部31が短くなるように傾斜している。
【0018】
前記シール受台10もヒーター本体9と同様にシリンダ33のシリンダロッド34に連結され、ここに、シール受台10及びヒーター本体9とは各シリンダ24,33の作動により、互いに接離自在に設けられている。
【0019】
また、ヒーター本体9等を移動させるシリンダ24は、ヒーター本体9のシール受台10への接近時に、シリンダロッド25を2段階に停止可能である。即ち、第1段階は、前記フィルム押圧体30を先端部31が弾性力に抗して互いに内側に湾曲するまでシール受台10に押圧させる位置(フィルム保持位置)である。また、第2段階は、シリンダロッド25が更に進出して溶断刃12の先端部12aがシール受台10に押圧される溶断溶着位置である。
【0020】
36,36はそれぞれテフロンシートボビン37にそれぞれ巻回された一対のテフロンシートで、図6(イ)に示す如く両テフロンシート36は前記ヒーター本体9及びシール受台10の前方に位置し、巻取りボビン38に巻取り自在である。
【0021】
従って、両テフロンシート36,36は前記溶断溶着装置6でフィルム3を溶断溶着した際に、フィルム3が溶断刃12の先端部12a及びシール受台10に付着するのを防止するためのもので、溶断溶着装置6の作動に連動して所定の微量だけ移動させてそれぞれ巻き取れるようになっている。
【0022】
40はエアーノズルで、フィルム3の溶断部3bにエアーを噴出して冷却するためのもので、ヒーター本体9とシール受台10との間で且つフィルム3に向けて設けられている。
【0023】
本実施の形態の装置は以上のような構成からなり、次に、上記装置を使用して物品5を包装する場合について説明する。
【0024】
先ず、水平に緊張されたフィルム3を横切るように、物品5を待機位置Aから下方に移動させると、この物品5の移動と共にフィルム3が繰り出される(図6(イ)参照)。
【0025】
物品5が下方に移動すると、シリンダ24,33が作動し、シースヒーター13が所定の温度に制御されている溶断溶着装置6のヒーターユニット7及びシール受台10が前方に移動して互いに接近する(図6(ロ)及び図3(イ)参照)。最初に、フィルム保持位置において、フィルム押圧体30の先端部31は、物品5の周面全体を被覆するようにフィルム3をシール受台10に押圧する。この押圧力により各フィルム押圧体30の先端部31は、弾性力に抗して内側に湾曲しようとするが、その湾曲時に、フィルム3の両フィルム押圧体30間の部分3aが弛む(図3(ロ)参照)。
【0026】
ヒーター台10側のシリンダ33は作動せずヒーター台10を停止させた状態で、更に、シリンダ24のロッド25が進出すると、フィルム押圧体30がシール受台10に当接して停止したヒーター本体9に対して、ヒーター部8がコイルスプリング27の弾性力に抗して前方に移動する。溶断溶着位置において、溶断刃12の先端部12aはフィルム3の弛んだ部分3aに押圧される(図4(イ)参照)。このとき、フィルム押圧体30はフィルム3を保持しており、フィルム3の弛んだ部分3aには張力が生じることがなく、溶断溶着は確実に行われる。
【0027】
次に、シリンダロッド25がフィルム保持位置まで後退すると、溶断刃12はフィルム3から離間するが、湾曲するフィルム押圧体30は、依然として溶断されたフィルム3を押圧して保持している。このときに、各フィルム3の溶着部3bにエアーノズルからエアーが噴出され、溶着部3bは強制的に冷却され、溶着強度が迅速に得られる(図4(ロ)参照)。
【0028】
更に、両シリンダ24,33の作動により、ヒーターユニット7とシール受台10とが後退し、フィルム押圧体30がフィルム3から離間すると共に、コイルスプリング27はヒーター本体9を前方に移動させる(図5参照)。また、溶着された長尺状のフィルム3は再び巻き戻されて緊張状態になると共に、物品5はフィルム3cに被覆された状態で次のシュリンク工程に搬送されることとなるが、各フィルム3、3cの溶着部3bは前記エアーノズル40により冷却されて強固になっているため、これらフィルム3、3cの溶着部3bが不用意に分断してしまうおそれはない。
【0029】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a fusing and welding method for a packaging film used when packaging an article with a packaging film in a packaging apparatus, for example, and the apparatus.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For example, as a means for fusing and welding a packaging material film used in a packaging device, as shown in FIG. 8 (a), a film 50 wound around a pair of rolls 53 is tensioned so as to be unwound and supplied. By passing 51 through the film 50, the film 50 is wound around the article 51, and the polymerized portion 50 a of the film 50 is melted and welded by the melt welding apparatus 52.
[0003]
This fusing and welding apparatus 52 includes a fusing blade 54 heated by a heater, a seal pedestal 55 on which the film 50 is pressed by the fusing blade 54, and a fusing blade 54 and a seal pedestal 55 as shown in FIG. Are made up of cylinders 56a and 56b.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the fusing and welding apparatus 52, when the film 50 is fused by the fusing blade 54 and the seal pedestal 55, the film 50 is tensioned by the tension when the roll 53 rewinds the film 50. Can not be reliably performed, poor welding occurs, or the strength of the welded part cannot be obtained sufficiently, and the welded part of the film 50 in which the article 51 is packaged during handling such as transportation is inadvertently broken. There was a risk of it.
[0005]
The above problem is particularly noticeable when the film is thick, and is therefore unsuitable for packaging an article 51 formed by winding an electric wire using the thick film 50, for example.
[0006]
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional problems, and even when an article is packaged with a thick film, the film can be surely fused and welded, and the strength of the welded portion is improved. It is an object to be able to make it.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention has been made as a method and apparatus for fusing a film for packaging material in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. The method for fusing and welding a film for packaging material is characterized by a fusing blade heated by a heater 13. 12 is a method for fusing and welding a film for packaging material by fusing and welding the film 3 by a fusing and welding apparatus including a sealing cradle 10 on which the packaging material film 3 to be fed is pressed by the fusing blade 12. First, the film 3 is pressed against the seal receiving base 10 with the film pressing bodies 30 projecting on both sides of the fusing blade 12, and the film pressing bodies 30 are curved inwardly to form the film 3. Next, the loosened portion is melted and welded by pressing the fusing blade 12 against the film 3, and then the fusing blade 12 is moved backward while the film 3 is pressed and held by the film pressing body 30. , The purpose of this is to retreat both film pressing bodies 30 after jetting air to the melt-bonded portion 3b of the film 3 to cool it.
[0008]
Therefore, even if the film 3 is tensed, the film 3 is loosened and the loosened portion is fused and welded, so that the fusion welding can be performed without any trouble. Moreover, after that, the melted portion is cooled with air, so that sufficient strength can be quickly obtained at the welded portion.
[0009]
The packaging film fusing and welding apparatus is characterized by a fusing blade 12 heated by a heater 13 and a seal cradle 10 on which the packaging film 3 is pressed by the fusing blade 12. In the fusing and welding apparatus for packaging material film in which the film 3 is fused and welded by the fusing blade 12 and the seal cradle 10, the fusing blade 12 is attached to a movable heater body 9 by operating means 24, and the heater body 9, the film pressing bodies 30 are provided on both sides of the fusing blade 12, and each film pressing body 30 comes before the fusing blade 12 when the heater body 9 approaches the seal cradle 10. 3 so that the tip 3 of the film pressing body 30 protrudes from the elastic body that can be bent inwardly in order to loosen the film 3 when the film 3 is pressed and held. Constitution Is the fusion cutter 12 so as to blow welded portion 3a slack of the film 3 is to become disposed for free relative movement with respect to the film pushing member 30.
[0010]
Moreover, the fusing blade 12 is made of a metallic cylindrical body, and the fusing blade 12 houses a heater 13 and a temperature sensor 22 for detecting the temperature of the heater 13, and the fusing blade 12 has a tip 12a. It is to be covered with a heat insulator 15 so as to be exposed.
[0011]
Therefore, the heating temperature of the fusing blade 12 at the heater 13 is difficult to dissipate to the outside, a constant temperature can be maintained, power consumption for heating the heater is reduced, and the temperature sensor 22 accurately detects the heater 13 temperature. As a result, the optimum temperature for fusing can be easily controlled, and the fusing of the film 3 becomes more reliable.
[0012]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
In FIG. 6, reference numerals 1a and 1b denote a pair of rolls for a roll made by winding a long heat-shrinkable film 3. The rolls for rolls 1a and 1b are, for example, metal wires such as electric wires. When the annular article 5 wound in a coil shape moves downward from the supply position A between the guide rollers 2 and 2 by a conveying device (not shown), the film 3 can be fed.
[0013]
Reference numeral 6 denotes a fusing welding device provided on the opposite side (lower side) of the article supply position A with respect to the guide rollers 2 and 2, and the fusing welding device 6 includes a heater section 8 as shown in FIGS. The heater unit 7 having the above and a seal cradle 10 on which the heater unit 7 is pressed are provided. The heater unit 8 is provided in a horizontal direction, and a linear heating sheath heater 13 bent in a plurality of rows is inserted into a fusing blade 12 made of a long metal tube, and the fusing blade 12 is sandwiched between heat insulating sheets 15. The sheath heater 13, the cutting blade 12 and the heat insulating sheet 15 are housed in a case 16 having a U-shaped cross section, and are fastened and fixed via a holding plate 18 with a holding screw 19 screwed into the case 16. is there.
[0014]
A front end portion 12a of the fusing blade 12 is exposed from the heat insulating sheet 15 and is formed over the entire length in the longitudinal direction in a state of protruding in a V-shaped cross section, and the front end portion 12 melts and welds the film 3. It has a function. The length of the fusing blade 12 is set longer than the width of the film 3.
[0015]
Further, the case 16 is fitted into a recess 20 provided on the front surface of the elongated heater main body 9, and the case 16 and the heater main body 9 are moved relative to each other in the front-rear direction (the direction in which the film 3 contacts and separates). It is free. Reference numeral 22 denotes a thermocouple as a temperature sensor inserted through the fusing blade 12, and the heater unit 7 detects the temperature of the sheath heater 13 so that the temperature at which the film 3 is fused and welded is always optimum. The temperature is controlled to be the set temperature.
[0016]
Reference numeral 24 denotes a cylinder as an operating means for moving the heater body 9 in and out. The tip 25a of the cylinder rod 25 is formed in a small diameter, and the tip 25a projects from the center of the heater 9 and rearwardly. The small diameter portion 9a is slidably inserted and fixed to the case 16. A coil spring 27 is externally fitted to the small diameter portion 9a and the tip end portion 25a of the cylinder rod 25. One end of the coil spring contacts the rear surface 28 of the heater body 9, and the other end contacts the step surface 25b of the cylinder 24. The coil spring 27 urges the heater body 9 forward against the cylinder rod 25. Reference numeral 26 denotes a pair of left and right guides connected to the rear surface 28 of the heater body 9.
[0017]
30 and 30 are plate-like film pressing bodies made of a pair of highly elastic rubbers fitted into the front surface of the heater body 9 so as to be positioned on both sides in the vertical direction with respect to the fusing blade 12, and are parallel to each other. The heater body 9 is provided in the longitudinal direction. Note that the length of each film pressing body 30 is longer than the width of the film 3. The distal end portion 31 of each film pressing body 30 protrudes from the heater main body 9, and the distal end of the fusing blade 12 is retracted when the case 16 retreats with the rear surface of the case 16 abutting against the bottom surface of the recess 20 of the heater main body 9. It protrudes from the portion 12a. The front end surface 31 a of each film pressing body 30 is inclined so that the front end portion 31 becomes shorter toward the outside of the pressing body 30.
[0018]
The seal cradle 10 is also connected to the cylinder rod 34 of the cylinder 33 in the same manner as the heater body 9, and the seal cradle 10 and the heater body 9 are provided so as to be able to come into contact with and separate from each other by the operation of the cylinders 24 and 33. It has been.
[0019]
The cylinder 24 for moving the heater body 9 and the like can stop the cylinder rod 25 in two stages when the heater body 9 approaches the seal cradle 10. That is, the first stage is a position (film holding position) in which the film pressing body 30 is pressed against the seal cradle 10 until the distal end portion 31 curves inward against the elastic force. The second stage is a fusing position where the cylinder rod 25 further advances and the tip 12a of the fusing blade 12 is pressed against the seal cradle 10.
[0020]
Reference numerals 36 and 36 respectively denote a pair of Teflon sheets wound around a Teflon sheet bobbin 37. As shown in FIG. 6 (a), both Teflon sheets 36 are positioned in front of the heater body 9 and the seal cradle 10 and wound. The take-up bobbin 38 can be wound up freely.
[0021]
Accordingly, the Teflon sheets 36 and 36 are for preventing the film 3 from adhering to the tip 12a of the fusing blade 12 and the seal cradle 10 when the film 3 is fused by the fusing and welding apparatus 6. In conjunction with the operation of the fusing and welding apparatus 6, a predetermined minute amount is moved so as to be wound up.
[0022]
Reference numeral 40 denotes an air nozzle for jetting air to cool the melted portion 3b of the film 3 and cooling it, and is provided between the heater body 9 and the seal cradle 10 and toward the film 3.
[0023]
The apparatus of the present embodiment has the above-described configuration. Next, a case where the article 5 is packaged using the apparatus will be described.
[0024]
First, when the article 5 is moved downward from the standby position A so as to cross the horizontally tensioned film 3, the film 3 is fed out with the movement of the article 5 (see FIG. 6A).
[0025]
When the article 5 moves downward, the cylinders 24 and 33 are activated, and the heater unit 7 and the seal cradle 10 of the fusing and welding apparatus 6 in which the sheath heater 13 is controlled to a predetermined temperature move forward and approach each other. (See FIG. 6 (b) and FIG. 3 (a)). First, at the film holding position, the distal end portion 31 of the film pressing body 30 presses the film 3 against the seal cradle 10 so as to cover the entire peripheral surface of the article 5. With this pressing force, the tip 31 of each film pressing body 30 tends to bend inward against the elastic force, but at the time of the bending, the portion 3a between the film pressing bodies 30 of the film 3 is loosened (FIG. 3). (See (b)).
[0026]
When the cylinder 33 on the heater base 10 side is not operated and the heater base 10 is stopped, and the rod 25 of the cylinder 24 is further advanced, the film pressing body 30 comes into contact with the seal receiving base 10 and stops. On the other hand, the heater portion 8 moves forward against the elastic force of the coil spring 27. At the fusing position, the tip 12a of the fusing blade 12 is pressed against the slack portion 3a of the film 3 (see FIG. 4 (a)). At this time, the film pressing body 30 holds the film 3, and no tension is generated in the slack portion 3a of the film 3, so that the fusing and welding are performed reliably.
[0027]
Next, when the cylinder rod 25 is retracted to the film holding position, the fusing blade 12 is separated from the film 3, but the curved film pressing body 30 still presses and holds the fusing film 3. At this time, air is ejected from the air nozzle to the welded portion 3b of each film 3, the welded portion 3b is forcibly cooled, and the welding strength is quickly obtained (see FIG. 4B).
[0028]
Furthermore, the operation of both cylinders 24 and 33 causes the heater unit 7 and the seal cradle 10 to move backward, the film pressing body 30 is separated from the film 3, and the coil spring 27 moves the heater body 9 forward (see FIG. 5). Further, the welded long film 3 is rewound again to be in a tension state, and the article 5 is conveyed to the next shrinking process while being covered with the film 3c. Since the welded part 3b of 3c is cooled and strengthened by the air nozzle 40, the welded part 3b of the films 3 and 3c is not inadvertently divided.
[0029]
Further, the fusing blade 12 is constituted by a tube, and the sheath heater 13 and the thermocouple 22 are inserted into the fusing blade 12 and are further sandwiched between the heat insulating sheets 15 and housed in the case 16 so that the heater unit 7 is small and compact. There are advantages.
[0030]
Moreover, since the film 3 is heated via the Teflon sheet 36 when the film 3 is fused in the fusing and welding apparatus 6, the heated portion of the film 3 does not adhere to the heater unit 6 and the seal cradle 10. In addition, since the Teflon sheet 36 is wound up by a minute amount, the new Teflon sheet 36 can be used at all times, and the adhesion preventing function is not lowered, and it is not necessary to replace the Teflon sheet 36 over a long period of time.
[0031]
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. In the above embodiment, the heater main body 9 and the seal cradle 10 are both moved. However, the seal cradle 10 does not move. It can also be fixed.
[0032]
In the above embodiment, the case where the relatively large article 5 is packaged with the film 3 has been described. However, for example, the film 3 for packaging the relatively small article 5 such as cosmetics may be fused. In this case, the film 3 is preliminarily formed in a cylindrical shape and is flat, and even if one of the films 3 cut to a predetermined length is fused and welded, or the film 3 is melted while being long. After welding, it is possible to form an opening on one side of the film 3a side by cutting the long film 3 at the position of the imaginary line L in FIG.
[0033]
Furthermore, the film 3 may be formed in a cylindrical shape by a former while being fed out, and pillow packaging may be performed in which the article 5 is conveyed and packaged in the film 3.
[0034]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, in the present invention, first, the film is pressed against the seal cradle at the tip of the film pressing body, and the film is loosened by curving the tip of each film pressing body toward each other. By pressing the fusing blade against the film, the loosened portion is fused and welded, and then the fusing blade is retracted in a state where the film is held by the film pressing body, and air is blown to the fusing and welding portion of the film. Since both film pressing bodies are retracted after cooling, the fusing and welding of the film is reliable and strong, and the welding part of the film that wraps the article is inadvertently divided during handling such as transportation of the article. Can be prevented.
[0035]
In particular, when a large article is packaged with a thick film, the packaging operation can be performed easily and quickly, which is optimal.
[0036]
In addition, the fusing and welding apparatus for a packaging material film that can be used in the above method has a fusing blade made of a metallic cylindrical body, and a heater and a temperature sensor that detects the temperature of the heater are housed in the fusing blade. In addition, since the cutting blade is covered with a heat insulator so that its tip is exposed, the power cost of the heater can be saved and the fusing temperature can be reliably controlled to a predetermined temperature, resulting in poor fusing of the film. There is an advantage that the fusing of the film is further ensured, and it is optimal for automatically performing a series of packaging operations.
