Application July 19, 1950, Serial No. 174,684
3 Claims.
This invention relates to an improvement in a device for mechanically opening cartons of cigarettes to' thereby prepare the carton for tax stamping the ends of each package therein, and forms a continuation-in-part of application Serial Number 782,807 which issued as Letters Patent No. 2,574,087 on November 6, 1951. I
In the device of the above named application one carton of cigarettes is manually fed to effect the cutting of the leading end of a carton, and a second carton, also manually fed, is moved into engagement with the first carton to push said first carton beyond the cutting knife. While the knife cuts through the trailing end of the first named carton it also enters the leading end of the second carton. Hence, the effort involved in manually moving the second carton while in direct contact withthe first carton, produces fatigue of the operator and requires considerable skill to manipulate in effecting cutting of the leading end of the second carton in the precise location required.
In the device of the present invention, means is provided whereby an operator manually moves the carton through improved guide elements when effecting the cutting of the leading end, and thereafter the carton moves under power to effect the breaking of a glued portion between the cover flap and carton wall, also the cutting of the trailing end thereof. a
It is the principal object of the invention therefore, to combine with a hand fed carton, means whereby, after an initial carton end cutting operation of one wall is completed, the carton is further driven under powerto complete the further cutting of the trailing end of the carton.
It is a further object to include means whereby the vertical relation of the carton to the cutting element is maintained through the application of pressure on the under surface of the carton, and the provision of means to guide the upper wall of the carton close to the edge of the cutting blade.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is disclosed in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a carton moving Within a guide channel in the direction of the arrow, and further shows how a cutting operation is performed on the leading end of the carton, and includes power driven elements positioned to effect the feed of the carton after the cutting of the leading end thereof;
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary perspective view of one end of a carton, with part broken away, and is particularly shown forthe purpose of illustrating the structure of the carton at the location where cutting is effected;
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the structure shown in Fig. l and further includes flap opening elements which further condition the carton by turning the cut wall and cover flap portions back when the carton is fed to a tax imprinting machine; and
Fig. 4-. is a side view of Fig. 3 with part broken away to show elements provided for applying pressure to the under surface of the carton,
In general, the device comprises a platform l0 along which cartons are adapted to be moved from a starting position at the extreme left end of Fig. 3 to a stamp imprinting machine, a portion of which is indicated at H, at the extreme right of Fig. 3. Cooperating with the carton as it passes along the platform If! is a sharp edged blade or cutting element l2, also wall and flap opening members l3l3a respectively, which bend the wall and flap portions outwardly to expose ends of the packages within the carton as the carton moves along the platform I0. Suitable side guides are provided for the carton, as at I4--l4.
When a carton is entered into the machine, it is positioned as shown in Fig. 2, with the part which is normally the cover, located at the forward side as indicated at [5, said cover having a continuing flap portion l6 tucked within the top wall 11, which wall is normally the front wall of the carton. In effecting a cutting operation both ends of the carton are cut through at a position coinciding with the upper surface of the flap l6 and the under surface of the wall 11. The wall I! is thus free to pivot about the corner indicated at l8.
Cartons also contain glued areas between the cover flap l6 and the inside surface of the wall I1, which become separated as the carton is moved'relative to the blade l2.
A channel is provided for the support of the carton during the initial feeding operation and comprisesa base 24, having a rigid side wall 25 and an adjustable side wall 26. r v
The blade I2 is rigidly supported on a bracket -l9,--secured to the channel wall 25 and has its cutting-edge positioned directly in alignment with the under-surface of the carton wall I I.
An upper guide 2| is also provided which is positioned so as to engage the upper surface of the wall 11 to maintain the correct relation between the said wall and the cutting edge of the blade 12. Said guide comprises a flat plate having one edge 22 aligned with and arranged close to the cutting edge of the blade l2. The guide 3 2! is yieldably supported on posts 2323a being fixed in a block 20 secured to the wall 25, and the post 23a being fixed in a block 2011 secured to the base 24.
When inserting a carton, it may be moved either along the base 24 or along the surface of a filler element 21, the latter being provided when standard size cigarettes are contained within the carton, and is removed when the larger King size cigarettes are contained within the-carton. The filler element 21 is included in each of the drawings.
After the cutting of the leading end of, the carton, means is provided whereby the carton may be fed under power, to effect the further operations of breaking of the gluebetween' the flap i6 and under side of the wall ll, alsothe final cutting of the trailing end of the carton. Said means comprises a pair of rollers 28--28 supported on vertical shafts -29-,29, which shafts are supported in suitable bearings provided in brackets 3i3| and base portions 32-32 respectively. Each shaft extends downwardly and has a bevel gear 33 thereon which meshes with a similar bevel gear 34. The bevel gear 34 is carried by a shaft 35, which shaft is driven through a pulley and belt drive 36-38a and 31 respectively. The pulley 36a is mounted on a shaft 38, which shaft continues sideward and has apulley 39 fixed thereon, as in Fig. 3, the latter pulley-being driven through a-belt drive 4| from a motor 42.
The rollers 2828 are positioned relative to the carton so as to frictionally engage the sides of the leading end of the carton after it is moved beyond the blade 12, and are adapted to continue the forward movement of the carton under power along the platform I while the members |3i 3a engage the wall i7 and flap l6 respectively to swing same outward about their pivot corners. When the carton advances beyond the drive of the rollers 28-28, the movement thereof is continued by a second drive source indicated at 43-43 in a manner fully described in the previouslynamed patent application.
In order to successfully cut through carton after carton, each new carton must approach the blade 12 in the same precise relation to the cut-' ting edge thereof. To accomplish this, the guide plate 21 is carefully adjusted relative to the cutting edge by means of adjusting thumb screws d45 against the compression of springs 46-48.
Having determined the position of the guide plate 2! relative to the cutting edge of the blade l2, means has also been provided to apply pressure from beneath each carton to urge the carton against the undersurface of the guide and thereby maintain the required accuracy of position to out each carton. Referring to Fig. 4, the pressure means comprises a yieldable plunger 4?, which comprises a head 49 and stem 5!, the stem being slidably mounted within a bearin'g52. The bearing comprises a screw 53, having an axial opening therein, within which the stem 5| slides. The screw portion 53 is threaded within a bracket 54 secured to the channel wall 215. A spring- 55 is also mounted over the stem 5i and is seated on a hex head portion 56 of the screw 53.
In mounting the screw bearing 53, the screw portion is screwed into the bracket 54 and is locked in place by a lock nut 51. When in said locked position, the head 49 of the plunger projects a predetermined distance above the surface carton as the carton is inserted in the channel vice which requires a minimum of skill to operate,
whereas, the device disclosed in the above named patent application required exceptional operator skill for successfuloperation.
It is also desired to 'point out that manual feed- ?ing for effecting the initial cutting operation is of the channel base 24' and will be depressed when engaged by the lower leading end of the more desirable than an automatic feed would be. In a carton opening device of this character,
" wherein the carton is moved against the cutting are frequent in cartons of different brands, the
operator control factor is very important. The operator, by thesense of touch, can quickly detest any difiiculty encountered and withdraw the carton, whereas, in an automatic feeding operation the feed would continue and mutilate the carton and contents before the feed could be stopped.
