Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system for forming containers, in particular containers for food products, of which the characterizing features are as recited in claim 1 appended. More precisely, albeit with no limitation implied, the present invention is applicable to the art field of systems used in manufacturing containers of any given kind for food products, and in particular, containers designed for packaging liquid products, typically milk, fruit juices, yoghurt, mineral water and other such substances.
- liquid products of the type in question can be bottled in containers of which the structure can be manufactured from multilayer or treated paper material, such as paperboard or cardboard coated with one or more layers of food-safe material suitable for liquids .
- the containers in question are fashioned in most cases from flat blanks cut generally from a roll , of material and bent as necessary along strategically placed crease lines to a shape suitable for holding a liquid product.
- such containers present a tubular configuration of substantially square cross section.
- the containers are manufactured using conventional machines such as will bend the flat blank to create a tubular element presenting an open top end and an open bottom end. Initially, the containers are advanced through various processing stations equipped with mechanical arms by which the edges of the open bottom end of the tubular element are bent and folded so as to enclose the end. In practice, the arms are arranged in sets, each designed to perform a particular operation on the edges of the container. The arms are also equipped with heat seal plates positioned to engage selected points of the resulting end folds and thus render the closure permanent. The partially enclosed container is then placed in a filling station, where a liquid product will be directed in through the open top end. Thereafter, the top end is closed by bending the relative edges and securing the folds in same way as for the bottom end already described above.
- Machines of the type in question present a notable drawback deriving from the excessive bulkiness of the components by which the folds of the container are bent and secured.
- the containers need to be transferred from one station to another by a conveyor, consisting generally in a belt passing through the various forming stations. This means that the belt must necessarily be of a certain length in order to pass through all the different stations, and consequently that considerable space is taken up by the system.
- the object of the present invention accordingly, is to provide a system for forming containers, in particular containers for food products, featuring compact dimensions and occupying minimal space. More exactly, it is an object of the invention to provide a system for forming containers, in particular containers for food products, such as will allow of optimizing the spaces utilized in closing and sealing the open end of the container. A further object of the present invention is to minimize the space needed in order to accommodate the mechanism by which the containers are conveyed.

- -figure 2a shows a detail of the system for forming containers according to the present invention, viewed in a side elevation
- -figure 2b shows a detail of the system for forming containers, illustrated in an alternative second embodiment and viewed in a side elevation
- -figures 3a to 3e are perspective illustrations showing a sequence of steps implemented in forming the container
- -figure 4 shows a constructional detail of figure 2a, viewed in a side elevation.
- the system 1 denotes a system according to the present invention for forming containers 2, in its entirety.
- the system 1 comprises a supporting structure 51 and, associated with this same structure, a forming sector 52 serving to prepare at least one blank 7 from which to fashion a relative container 2, also a shaping sector 53 operating downstream of the forming sector 52, of which the function is to fold the single blanks 7 emerging from the forming sector and establish the shape of the respective folded containers 2 by means of a fixing operation.
- the forming sector 52 comprises a feed station 52a by which a continuous strip 54 of forming material suitable for preserving liquid food products is directed along a predetermined feed path denoted Y.
- the aforementioned continuous strip 54 of forming material is preferably carried by and decoilable from a reel 54a rotatable about a relative longitudinal axis X.
- the forming material will consist preferably of a multilayer or treated paper material, such as paperboard or cardboard coated with an impermeable and antiseptic film.
- the feed station 52a also comprises a plurality of guide elements, consisting preferably in rollers, serving to establish a first leg of the feed path followed by the forming material that extends externally of the supporting structure 51 of the system 1 along a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal dimension of the selfsame supporting structure.
- the system 1 can be equipped with a numbering device serving to mark consecutive portions of the forming material coinciding with the single blanks 7.
- the numbering device operates between successive guide elements of the feed station 52a in such a way as to mark the forming material at a stage along the feed path where the strip extends substantially in a horizontal plane.
- the forming sector 53 includes a scoring station 55 positioned downstream of the feed station 52, by which each portion of the forming material destined to provide a relative blank 7 is impressed with at least one crease line.
- the scoring station 55 is designed to generate a plurality of crease lines, in a single operation, by which the shape of the container 2 being manufactured is marked out on the flat surface of the forming material .
- the scoring station 55 comprises at least one press presenting mutually opposed dies offered to the two faces of the forming material.
- the press will alternate between an idle position in which the two dies are distanced from the forming material interposed between them, and an operating position in which they are brought together forcibly against the forming material in such a way as to generate the aforementioned crease lines.
- the forming sector 53 also comprises a cutting station 56 operating downstream of the scoring station 55, by which the creased forming material is taken up from this same station and divided into successive discrete pieces each constituting a respective blank 7.
- the cutting station 56 comprises at least one blade positioned to operate in close proximity to the scoring station 55 so that the forming material can be cut immediately adjacent to the press.
- the blade In operation, like the press, the blade alternates between an idle position distanced from the forming material, and an operating position of engagement with the selfsame material, in which the strip is cut transversely.
- the blade can be timed to alternate between the idle position and the operating position synchronously with the movement of the press of the scoring station 55 between the idle position and the operating position, so that the press and the blade are made to engage the forming material simultaneously.
- the system 1 also comprises a mechanism 3 by means of which to convey a plurality of tubular elements 2a constituting the containers 2.
- tubular elements 2a are advanced by way of a feed station 4 toward the conveying mechanism 3, ordered in single file.
- the tubular elements 2a are prepared by a forming device 5 coinciding with and operating at the feed station 4, as illustrated to advantage in figure 4.
- the forming device 5 presents a gripper element 6 such as will bend the blank 7 of multilayer or treated paper material, typically paperboard or cardboard coated with one of more layers of food-safe material suitable for liquid products.
- the blank is bent by the gripper element 6 around a former 8 of shape corresponding to the shape of the tubular element 2a, in such a way that one longitudinal edge of the selfsame blank 7 will overlap the other.
- the forming device 5 also presents a sealer 6a serving to join the longitudinal edges and create the tubular element 2a, also a feed mechanism 9 by which the tubular element 2a is caused to advance along the a radial infeed direction A toward the conveying mechanism 3.
- sealer 6a serving to join the longitudinal edges and create the tubular element 2a
- feed mechanism 9 by which the tubular element 2a is caused to advance along the a radial infeed direction A toward the conveying mechanism 3.
- the use of the term “sealing” in the course of the specification is intended to indicate any one of several comparable methods, which include heat-sealing, and ultrasound or induction welding.
- the term “sealer” can be taken to signify any given heat-seal or induction or ultrasound welding instrument.
- the system could also operate utilizing blanks 7 supplied to the feed station in a precreased tubular configuration, collapsed in such a way as to present an essentially flat rhomboidal cross section.
- the system 1 could utilize a forming device 5 of conventional embodiment embraced by the prior art, comprising a gripper element 6 that can be offered to the opposite edges of the precreased tubular blank 7 in such a way as to apply a compressive force and thus cause the flattened profile to expand to a substantially square profile when viewed in section.
- a forming device 5 of conventional embodiment embraced by the prior art comprising a gripper element 6 that can be offered to the opposite edges of the precreased tubular blank 7 in such a way as to apply a compressive force and thus cause the flattened profile to expand to a substantially square profile when viewed in section.
- the operation of erecting flat glued tubular blanks in this fashion will be familiar to a person skilled in the art.
- the conveying mechanism 3 is disposed facing the feed station 4 and capable of movement between a first operating position in which it takes up the tubular element 2a from the feed station 4, and a second operating position in which the tubular elements 2a are subjected to the action of respective sealing means 10. More exactly, the conveying mechanism 3 comprises at least one wheel 11 rotatable in a first feed direction B along a circular sealing path P passing through the feed station 4 and the sealing means 10.
- the wheel 11 is composed of a central hub 12 rotatable about a respective axis 12a, and a plurality of supporting elements 13 serving to carry the tubular elements 2a.
- the supporting elements 13 project radially from the hub 12, each presenting a first end 13a anchored to the selfsame hub 12, and a second end 13b, opposite to the first, which appears substantially cylindrical in shape and smaller in section than the remainder of the element 13.
- the system comprises two wheels 11 disposed one alongside the other, each presenting a relative set of supporting elements 13 arranged around the respective hub 12.
- each supporting element 13 presents a substantially parallelepiped geometry complementing the internal shape of the tubular element 2a.
- the tubular element 2a is substantially parallelepiped in appearance and of square cross section. Consequently, the supporting element 13 will present a square parallelepiped shape identical to that of the tubular element 2a.
- each tubular element 2a can be fitted over a respective supporting element 13 in such a way that the respective first open end 2b of the selfsame element 2a is positioned to coincide with the second end 13b of the element 13.
- the aforementioned sealing means 10 are positioned along the circular sealing path P, and in particular downstream of the feed station 4 relative to the feed direction B, in such a way as to interact with and close the first open end 2b of each successive tubular element 2a.
- the sealing means 10 of each wheel 11 consist in a first joining head 10a able to interact with the end 2b of each tubular element 2a, and as a result to unite two mutually opposed sides 14 of the tubular element 2a coinciding with the selfsame first open end 2b.
- the first joining head 10a comprises two folder elements 15 that can be offered to the corresponding sides 14 in such a way as to draw together and match the respective top edges 14a (figure 3a), also a sealer 15a of conventional type, not described further, operating on the two edges 14a in such a manner as to secure them one to another.
- the sealing means 10 also comprise a press 16 located downstream of the first joining head 10a, considered in relation to the feed direction B. The press 16 operates on the two joined sides 14 in such a way as to force them toward the central hub 12 (figure 3c) , generating a base surface 17 of the tubular element 2a.
- the base surface 17 extends flat and substantially transverse to the longitudinal dimension of the tubular element 2a, and presents two opposite end folds 18 projecting laterally beyond the relative side walls of the tubular element 2a. Also extending beneath the press 16 are two restraints 19 against which the press 16 is designed to register during the forcing stroke.
- the restraints 19 are positioned in such a way that the supporting elements 13 are insertable between them, so that whenever a single element 13 carrying a tubular element 2a approaches the press 16, the end folds 18 of the joined sides 14 will locate against the restraints 19.
- the system could also be equipped with two sealers 19a positioned along the restraints 19 in such a way as to engage a corresponding seal line 18a presented by each end fold 18 (figures 3b and 3c) .
- the sealing means 10 also comprise folding means, embodied preferably as a fixed guide 20 positioned along the sealing path P and beyond the press 16, considered in the feed direction B.
- the guide 20 is positioned in such a way that the aforementioned end folds 18 will be engaged and bent inwards over the respective sides 14.
- the second joining head 10b includes an arm 21 capable of vertical movement and offered to the flattened end folds 18 at a central point 17a on the base surface 17.
- the end folds 18 are dabbed with glue at a point near the press 16, by applicator means of conventional type.
- the function of the arm 21 is to pin the two end folds 18 together so that they are bonded by the glue.
- the arm 31 can consist in a sealer of the type mentioned' above, such as will fuse the end folds 18 directly together.
- the system further comprises an outfeed device 22 operating downstream of the sealing means 10, considered in relation to the feed direction B, by which the containers 2 are taken up from the conveying mechanism 3 and directed toward successive finishing stations that do not directly constitute the subject matter of the present invention and therefore are not described further.
- the operation of the system 1, described thus far essentially in structural terms, is as follows.
- the tubular elements 2a pass along the infeed direction A (figure 2) and are taken up by the conveying mechanism 3. More exactly, the tubular element 2a are taken up onto the wheel 11 in such a way that each supporting element 13 is ensheathed by a respective tubular element 2a. It will be observed that the motion of the wheel 11 is not continuous; rather, the hub 12 is indexed in such a way that the supporting elements 13 are brought into alignment with the feed station 4 and the sealing means 10 at each step. Each tubular element 2a is thus positioned on the relative supporting element 13 with the first open end 2b positioned at the second end 13b of the selfsame element 13. The tubular element 2a is now advanced along the sealing path P toward the first joining head 10a.
- the sides 14 of the open end 2b are drawn together by the first joining head 10a and the respective top edges 14a thus united, whereupon the sealer 15a passes along the edges 14a to seal them one to the other.
- the press 16 will flatten the sides 14 against the supporting element 13 to establish the base surface 17 (figure 3b) , as a result of which the selfsame sides 14 are flattened partly against the restraints 19 to form the projecting end folds 18.
- the sealers 19a operate along the seal lines 18a delimiting the end folds 18, thereby joining the two thicknesses of 'material and creating a base surface 17 of substantially square outline.
- the tubular elements 2a formed in this manner are advanced subsequently through the fixed guide 20, which will bend the end folds 18 inward and over the joined sides 14. Finally, the tubular element 2a encounters the second joining head 10b, whereupon the arm 21 will engage the end folds 18 at the central portion 17a of the base surface 17 to seal or glue the folds 18, as described previously, and complete the closure of the container 2 at the bottom end 2b.
- the container 2 is now conveyed to the outfeed device 22, where it is removed from the supporting element 13 and advanced toward further finishing stations .
- the system 1 can be made compact and suitable for inclusion in any given plant set up to manufacture containers for food and similar products.
- This is an advantage attributable to the distinctive structure of the wheel 11, by which the tubular elements are carried along a circular path P. Consequently, the elements utilized in forming the tubular element 2a can likewise be organized to best advantage and rendered compact in terms of the space required, being arranged along a circular path P rather than a rectilinear path.
- the fact that the system is connected to a supply reel 54a means that the container 2 can be formed directly by a station coinciding with the station where the blank is prepared.
