Definitions
- the present invention patent relates to a machine for automatically dispensing protective and separating divisions of bottle groups for packaging chains thereof.
- the bottle packaging industry has used numerous systems to prevent their breakage and deterioration due to collisions between them when they are packaged in the container boxes of bottle groups, as well as in their transport, storage or distribution.
- the object of the present invention has been designed, which consists of a machine for continuous operation that automates the formation of the spatial structure of the separating divisions and the dispensing of said protection separating units in chain chains of bottle groups.
- the machine of the present invention is very versatile and can be easily adapted to different analog separating divisions, by means of the appropriate selection of guide bodies.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of the circuit that the machine performs with the division separator, from its collection from the warehouse stack to its insertion in the bottle group packaging.
- Figure 2 is a partial perspective view of the machine of the invention showing a detail of its mechanism for collecting the separator division of the storage stack and its clamping mechanism.
- Figure 3 is a side view of the collection mechanism of the storage of the separating divisions.
- Figure 4 is a detail of the frame widening system of the machine of the invention.
- Figure 5 is in perspective a gripper made according to the invention in one of its favorite constructions.
- Figure 6 is a perspective of the machine showing the guide bodies of the final alignment of the separating divisions.
- the machine object of the invention consists of a fixed frame or support (15), in which endless chains (2) move propelled by a motor, not shown.
- endless chains (2) move propelled by a motor, not shown.
- the clamps (3) for securing the separating divisions (1) are arranged, thus forming a continuous process circuit (Fig. 1) that ends in the dispensing of the spatial structure of the separating division ( 1) in the packing chain of the bottle group.
- the machine starts from a reticular separating unit, folded into a sheet.
- Said sheet usually of cardboard, is supplied to the machine from a storage stack (4).
- the machine of the invention begins its operation by collecting, by appropriate means, a partition separating the warehouse and positioning it in the machine's processing circuit.
- the preferred device of the invention uses pusher stops (5) that rotate in an endless chain (6) and push the lower unit located in a storage cell (4).
- the storage stack (4) of the separating divisions (1) has on its support surface an opening (7) that allows the stops (5) to reach the level of the last unit (1) and push it towards the body of the machine of the invention.
- the pusher stops (5) lift the mobile platform (8).
- a double open strap (11), shown in Figure 3, acts as a final stop and positions the separator unit in its starting position in the circuit associated with the endless chains (2) .
- the machine object of the invention has means for opening the clamps (3) such as guides (12) that mechanically force their opening.
- the clamps (3) also have guide elements (13) attached to their jaws in the form of tips, as shown in Figure 2, which perform a first opening of the flaps of the separator unit so that the clamp (3) when opening, grab only the part of the unit (1) that is convenient.
- the previous clamps (3) placed on one of the two sides of the machine also have guiding means for the separating divisions (1).
- Said means is that an angle layer (9) is attached to the clamp (3), see figure 5, that when the clamp (3) grabs the separator division (1) it allows separation of the flaps of the separating division (1) facilitating the introduction of the tip of the guide bodies (14a).
- the number form and arrangement of these guiding and processing parts (14a, 14b and 14c) of the separating divisions (1), is a function of the size and consistency of the separating units.
- the guiding bodies responsible for the process of weakening the structure of the separating unit (1) are shown, in a preferred construction of the invention, in Figures 2 and 3, and are those referenced with numbers 14a and 14b.
- the guiding bodies responsible for the final positioning of the separating divisions (1), ready for dispensing, are shown in Figure 4 and are numbered as 14c.
- the guide bodies (14a, 14b and 14c) have the appropriate form for the function of the guidance and manipulation process that is required in each case.
- said machine is adaptable to different sizes and types of separating divisions (1) Similar.
- its frame (15) has a mobile wall (16) on one of its sides that adapts the machine capacity to larger units (1).
- said enlargement is represented as performed.
- the machine of the present invention performs its process by working continuously. Its construction is such that no stopping is required in the machine cycle to perform any of its handling processes of the separator units (1).
