However, due to a printing error, a mechanical error, or the like of the phototube marks P, the phototube mark intervals are displaced during operation, and the above-mentioned initial settings are displaced. As shown in Fig. 7, the position of this deviation advances from the base point to a position 180 degrees before the base point. Range of position, 18 points from the base point to the base point.
The position up to 0 ° is defined as the range of the delayed position.
As shown in FIG. 6, the correction work of the deviation detects the mark P by the photoelectric tube 5, detects the position in the rotary encoder 6 at that time, and maintains the brake voltage when the detected position matches the base point. Continuing the seal to the initial setting state, when the detection position does not match the base point and the rotary encoder 6 is in the advancing position, lower the brake voltage, loosen the tension of the packaging film F, and mark P. , So that the base point can be reached quickly,
Further, when the detection position does not coincide with the base point and is in the position where the rotary encoder 6 is delayed, the brake voltage is increased to increase the tension of the packaging film F so that the distance between the marks P ... To be executed.
The magnitude of the deviation is digitally measured by the number of pulses by the photoelectric tube amplifier 5A, and a correction control voltage corresponding to the pulse is applied to the brake 4 to make correction in a short time. Therefore, as shown in FIG. The range of the increasing position and the range of the delaying position are divided into eight ranges from the base point by approximately multiples, and the brake voltage is determined to increase as the distance from the base point increases.

Therefore, the magnitude of the control amount of the brake voltage is digitally calculated according to the deviation distance from the target seal position corresponding to the photoelectric tube mark P to the current seal position by the partition seal means 23 to obtain the optimum braking force. It becomes possible to seal at the target sealing position in a short time. Further, it is possible to display on the display 7 how far or behind the target seal position is. Further, when the position of the material film F to be sealed and the photoelectric tube mark P are misaligned even though the length can be controlled, the conventional photoelectric tube 5 is used.
It was necessary to adjust the target seal position by shifting the position of or changing the cam angle, but the base point position can be easily changed by inputting the direction and distance to the target seal position on the input touch panel 8. That is, the rotary encoder 6 has an immovable counter reset signal of Z phase, and pulses are sent at equal intervals once per rotation. The base point sets the distance (pulse) from the position where the count of pulses when passing through the Z phase is reset (becomes 0) to the position where sealing is desired.

As shown in FIG. 9, when a certain position from the Z phase is used as a base point and the mark position of the bag made under control is different from the target mark position, the base point is adjusted. . If the target mark position is 2 mm to the left from the mark position of the bag that was made, the position of the base point is 2 to the left.
The value is input to the photoelectric tube amplifier 5A by the input touch panel 8 so as to move by mm, and the value is adjusted. Further, when the photocell mark pitch is averagely expanded or contracted for each lot by changing the type and the control cannot be performed as desired, the display 7 digitally shows how much the partition sealing means 23 should be shifted in the radial direction. It can be done.

According to the automatic seal gap adjusting device of the automatic wrapping machine of the second aspect, the wrapping film supply braking means is composed of a powder brake attached to the wrapping film reel mounting shaft, and the braking voltage can be adjusted by adjusting the braking voltage. Even if the packaging film has an appropriate tension, the braking of the seal alignment can be easily and effectively performed steplessly. According to the automatic seal gap adjusting device of claim 3, the control amount advances the position from the base point of the rotary encoder to 180 degrees before the base point, the range of the position, 1 from the base point to the base point.
The position up to 80 degrees later is defined as the range of the delayed position, and the range of the advanced position and the range of the delayed position are divided into multiple ranges, such as 8 multiples from the base point, and the braking voltage increases as the distance from the base point increases.
