Etat de la technique State of the art
On connaît de multiples formes d'installations de pose de manchons sur des produits, qu'il s'agisse de manchons rétractables ou de manchons étirables. Ces installations découpent en général les manchons dans une gaine pré-imprimée le cas échéant pour prélever les manchons à l'aide d'étireurs qui les ouvrent et les étirent pour les poser sur chaque produit dans le poste de pose, en descendant avec le manchon sur le produit et en se retirant une fois le manchon posé, qu'il soit étirable et accroché au produit ou qu'il soit simplement posé comme dans le cas d'un manchon rétractable qui subit ensuite la thermorétraction pour être fixé définitivement au produit. Many forms of sleeving installations are known on products, be they retractable sleeves or stretchable sleeves. These installations generally cut the sleeves in a pre-printed sheath if necessary to take the sleeves using stretchers which open and stretch them to put them on each product in the laying station, down with the sleeve on the product and withdrawing once the sleeve is laid, whether it is stretchable and hooked to the product or that it is simply put down as in the case of a retractable sleeve which then undergoes heat-shrinking to be fixed permanently to the product.

La réduction considérable de l'encombrement de l'installation de pose de manchon par rapport à l'encombrement des installations connues a l'avantage de permettre d'intégrer facilement une telle installation de pose dans diverses lignes de préparation et de conditionnement de produits. The considerable reduction in the size of the sleeve installation installation with respect to the size of the known installations has the advantage of making it possible to easily integrate such a laying installation into various product preparation and packaging lines.
Suivant une autre caractéristique avantageuse, le groupe de transfert comprend le convoyeur à bande sans fin portant des unités de transfert fixées extérieurement à la bande sans fin, formée d'au moins une brande crantée coopérant avec au moins une roue dentée d'entraînement, et d'une bande lisse munie de perçages aux emplacements de fixation des unités de transfert pour leur branchement de vide, un caisson d'aspiration installé sur le chemin de défilement de la bande sans fin, contre la bande lisse et relié au groupe de vide, l'unité de transfert se composant de deux bras de pince, creux, munis chacun à son extrémité d'un patin aspirant et reliés aux perçages de la bande lisse pour la mise en dépression des patins aspirants. Cette organisation de la distribution du vide pour alimenter en dépression les unités de transfert est particulièrement intéressante par la simplicité de la structure d'alimentation en vide des unités de transfert. Cela permet de multiplier le nombre d'unités de transfert et d'augmenter ainsi la vitesse de fonctionnement de l'installation sans pour autant augmenter l'encombrement ou la complexité de l'installation. La simplicité de cette distribution de vide pour les pinces aspirant et fixant les manchons simplifie et réduit également les interventions d'entretien se traduisant globalement sur un coût de fonctionnement réduit. According to another advantageous characteristic, the transfer unit comprises the endless belt conveyor carrying transfer units fixed externally to the endless belt, formed of at least one toothed belt cooperating with at least one drive gear, and a smooth band provided with holes at the attachment locations of the transfer units for their vacuum connection, a suction box installed on the running path of the endless belt, against the smooth band and connected to the vacuum group, the transfer unit consisting of two hollow clamp arms, each provided at its end with a suction pad and connected to the holes of the smooth strip for the depression of the suction pads. This organization of the vacuum distribution for supplying the transfer units with depression is particularly interesting because of the simplicity of the vacuum supply structure of the transfer units. This makes it possible to multiply the number of transfer units and thus increase the speed of operation of the installation without increasing the size or complexity of the installation. The simplicity of this vacuum distribution for the suction and fixing clamps simplifies and also reduces the maintenance interventions resulting overall in a reduced operating cost.
Suivant une autre caractéristique avantageuse, chaque bras de pince est relié séparément par une conduite à un orifice de la bande lisse, et le caisson aspirant neutralise l'un ou l'autre orifice asso-
cié à un bras sur le segment du trajet de la bande sans fin pour limiter l'aspiration à l'un des patins aspirants. According to another advantageous characteristic, each gripper arm is connected separately by a pipe to an orifice of the smooth strip, and the suction box neutralizes one or the other orifice an arm on the segment of the path of the endless belt to limit suction to one of the suction pads.
La gestion séparée de l'alimentation en dépression de chacun des bras de la pince permet d'adapter l'unité de transfert tout particulièrement à des manchons très peu rigides du fait de la minceur du film de matière constituant la gaine et le manchon. Cela permet d'utiliser des films dont l'épaisseur est réduite au minimum nécessaire à la tenue du manchon sur le produit sans que la prise du manchon ne risque d'aboutir à un mauvais positionnement du manchon sur les dispositifs de pose, c'est-à-dire les étireurs et un défaut de pose en fin d'opération. The separate management of the vacuum supply of each of the arms of the clamp makes it possible to adapt the transfer unit particularly to sleeves that are not very rigid because of the thinness of the film of material constituting the sheath and the sleeve. This makes it possible to use films whose thickness is reduced to the minimum required to hold the sleeve on the product without the socket of the sleeve being likely to result in a bad positioning of the sleeve on the laying devices. that is to say, the stretchers and a laying fault at the end of the operation.
Suivant une autre caractéristique avantageuse, comme les bras des pinces sont alimentés séparément, il est possible selon l'invention de n'alimenter provisoirement qu'une seule pince sur une partie du trajet de l'unité de transfert. A cet effet, le caisson aspirant neutralise l'aspiration du patin, amont, dans le sens de la circulation, au passage dans le dispositif de coupe pour accrocher le manchon coupé seulement par le patin aval. According to another advantageous characteristic, as the arms of the clamps are fed separately, it is possible according to the invention to provisionally feed a single clamp on part of the path of the transfer unit. For this purpose, the suction box neutralizes the suction of the pad, upstream, in the direction of the circulation, to the passage in the cutting device to hang the sleeve cut only by the downstream pad.
De façon particulièrement intéressante, le groupe de vide est installé dans le volume entouré par le convoyeur à bande sans fin, ce qui réduit la longueur des conduites reliées au caisson et réduit aussi globalement l'encombrement en utilisant la place disponible dans le volume entouré par le convoyeur de la bande sans fin, l'ensemble étant situé sous le plan de la ligne de défilement. Particularly interestingly, the vacuum unit is installed in the volume surrounded by the endless belt conveyor, which reduces the length of the ducts connected to the casing and also reduces the space overall by using the space available in the volume surrounded by the conveyor belt endless, all being located under the plane of the line of scrolling.
Suivant une autre caractéristique avantageuse, l'installation comprend une enceinte d'isolation enveloppant la ligne de défilement en laissant une entrée et une sortie, le groupe de transfert, le groupe de pose et le poste de pose ainsi que le dispositif de coupe de manchons alors que l'installation d'alimentation en manchons avec son dévideur et son tampon accumulateur sont à l'extérieur de l'enceinte, en étant reliés au dispositif de coupe par le chemin de liaison remontant pour arriver par le dessus dans l'enveloppe et alimenter en descente le dispositif de coupe. According to another advantageous characteristic, the installation comprises an isolation enclosure enclosing the scroll line leaving an inlet and an outlet, the transfer unit, the laying unit and the laying station as well as the sleeve cutting device. while the sleeve feed installation with its reel and accumulator buffer are outside the enclosure, being connected to the cutting device by the connecting link up to arrive from above in the envelope and feeding down the cutting device.
Cette enceinte, tout en assurant la protection de l'installation et son isolation phonique, n'en réduit pas pour autant
l'accès facile aux zones de l'installation auxquelles il faut, par expérience, accéder le plus rapidement et le plus simplement tout en évitant des risques pour le conducteur de l'installation. This enclosure, while ensuring the protection of the installation and its sound insulation, does not reduce it easy access to areas of the installation which, by experience, must be accessed as quickly and easily as possible while avoiding risks for the driver of the installation.
Suivant une autre caractéristique avantageuse, dans le sens de l'ergonomie et de la réduction de l'encombrement, le groupe de pose situé au-dessus du groupe de transfert et à côté du dispositif de coupe, passant sous le dispositif de coupe et le long, mais à côté, du chemin de défilement. According to another advantageous characteristic, in the sense of ergonomics and reduced space, the laying unit located above the transfer unit and next to the cutting device, passing under the cutting device and the along, but beside, the scrolling path.

Description d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention Description of an embodiment of the invention
Selon la figure 1 , l'installation de pose de manchons M se compose d'une ligne de défilement 1 des produits P avec une entrée de produits 1 1 non manchonnés reliée par un convoyeur 12 à une sortie 13 de produits manchonnés PM. Le convoyeur 12 qui traverse le poste
de pose de manchons 2 est équipé d'une vis 121 de mise au pas et de synchronisation du défilement des produits P dans le poste de pose 2 pour les synchroniser sur les moyens de pose des manchons M. According to FIG. 1, the sleeve installation installation M consists of a scroll line 1 of the products P with a product inlet 11 which is not connected and connected by a conveyor 12 to an outlet 13 of PM sleeve products. The conveyor 12 which crosses the post Sleeve installation 2 is equipped with a screw 121 for setting and synchronization of the scrolling of the products P in the laying station 2 to synchronize them on the laying means of the sleeves M.
L'installation comporte un dispositif de coupe 3 de man- chons M recevant une gaine G, à plat avec une guillotine à travers laquelle la gaine descend chaque fois de la longueur d'un manchon M qui est coupé de la gaine à plat. Pour réduire l'encombrement et faciliter l'accessibilité, le dispositif de coupe 3 est situé au-dessus de la ligne de défilement, légèrement en retrait, à cheval sur les moyens de transfert des manchons coupés. The installation comprises a cutter 3 of sleeves M receiving a sheath G, flat with a guillotine through which the sheath descends each time the length of a sleeve M which is cut from the sheath flat. To reduce clutter and facilitate accessibility, the cutting device 3 is located above the line of scroll, slightly set back, straddling the transfer means of the cut sleeves.
Le dispositif de coupe 3 reçoit la gaine G d'une alimentation 4 comportant un dévideur de bobine 41 relié à un dispositif tampon à rouleaux valseurs 42 fournissant la gaine G au dispositif de coupe 3, de façon à absorber le mouvement alternatif du dispositif de coupe 3 avec une avancée pas à pas de la gaine G et le dévidage relativement continu de la gaine de la bobine B. Le tampon 42 permet aussi d'absorber l'arrêt de dévidage d'une bobine terminée et sa jonction avec une nouvelle bobine B' qui était en attente, sans avoir à interrompre la coupe et la pose des manchons M. The cutting device 3 receives the sheath G of a feed 4 comprising a reel feeder 41 connected to a worm roller buffer device 42 supplying the sheath G to the cutting device 3, so as to absorb the reciprocating movement of the cutting device. 3 with a stepwise advance of the sheath G and the relatively continuous unwinding of the sheath of the coil B. The buffer 42 also makes it possible to absorb the unwinding stop of a completed coil and its junction with a new coil B who was waiting, without interrupting the cutting and laying of the sleeves M.
Les manchons M coupés sont pris dans le dispositif de coupe 3 par le groupe de transfert 5 composé d'un convoyeur à bande sans fin 51 schématisé sur la figure 1 par le chemin de circulation. Le convoyeur à bande est équipé d'unités de transfert 6 à pinces à dépression, circulant entre le dispositif de coupe de manchons 3 et la zone prise des manchons ouverts MO par le groupe de pose 7. Le groupe de transfert 5 est installé en partie basse, sous le dispositif de coupe de manchons 3. La bande sans fin 51, entraînée, passe sur deux roues 52 qui assurent son entraînement synchronisé. Les unités de pinces 6 sont mises en dépression par un groupe d'aspiration 9. The cut sleeves M are taken in the cutting device 3 by the transfer unit 5 composed of an endless belt conveyor 51 shown diagrammatically in FIG. 1 by the circulation path. The conveyor belt is equipped with transfer units 6 with vacuum clamps, circulating between the sleeve cutting device 3 and the zone taken by the open sleeves MO by the laying unit 7. The transfer unit 5 is installed in part The endless belt 51, driven, passes on two wheels 52 which ensure its synchronized driving. The gripper units 6 are depressed by a suction unit 9.
L'installation de pose de manchons est équipée d'une unité de gestion et de commande 101 qui gère le fonctionnement de la ligne de pose 1, du dispositif de coupe de manchons 3, du groupe de transfert 5 et du groupe de pose 7, en synchronisant le mouvement de ces différentes parties.
Ainsi, la commande de l'installation 101, l'accès à l'installation d'alimentation en gaine 4, la ligne de défilement des produits 1 , le dispositif de coupe 3 sont accessibles facilement d'un même côté de l'installation, ce qui est particulièrement avantageux pour la surveillance du fonctionnement et les interventions sur les parties les plus sujettes à des incidents de fonctionnement. The sleeving installation is equipped with a management and control unit 101 which manages the operation of the laying line 1, the sleeve cutting device 3, the transfer unit 5 and the laying unit 7. by synchronizing the movement of these different parts. Thus, the control of the installation 101, the access to the sheath supply installation 4, the scroll line of the products 1, the cutting device 3 are easily accessible on the same side of the installation, This is particularly advantageous for the monitoring of the operation and the interventions on the parties most subject to operating incidents.
Les figures 2A, 2B montrent très schématiquement une vue en plan du groupe de transfert 5 et du groupe de pose 7. FIGS. 2A, 2B show very schematically a plan view of the transfer group 5 and the laying group 7.
Selon la figure 2 A, le groupe de transfert 5 se compose d'une bande sans fin 51 passant sur les roues 52 et portant des unités de transfert 6 coopérant avec le dispositif de coupe 3 et le groupe d'aspiration 9 ; la bande 51 est entraînée par le dispositif d'entraînement 10 de façon synchronisée par l'intermédiaire des roues 52. According to Figure 2A, the transfer unit 5 consists of an endless belt 51 passing on the wheels 52 and carrying transfer units 6 cooperating with the cutting device 3 and the suction unit 9; the band 51 is driven by the driving device 10 synchronously via the wheels 52.
Le groupe de transfert 5 est situé en partie basse de l'installation et passe à côté de la ligne de défilement 1 puisque sa fonction est de prendre les manchons M coupés et de les transférer au groupe de pose 7 sans gêner celui-ci ni augmenter l'encombrement de l'installation qui doit rester parfaitement accessible pour les éventuelles interventions en cas d'incidents de fonctionnement. The transfer unit 5 is located in the lower part of the installation and passes next to the scroll line 1 since its function is to take the cut M-sleeves and transfer them to the laying group 7 without hindering it or increasing the size of the installation which must remain perfectly accessible for any intervention in case of operational incidents.
Selon la figure 2B, le groupe de pose 7 qui se situe au- dessus du groupe de transfert 5 et ne chevauche son trajet de circulation que sur une partie en aval du dispositif de coupe 3 et en amont du poste de pose 2, prend les manchons MO, ouverts, et les pose sur les produits P. According to FIG. 2B, the laying unit 7 which is situated above the transfer unit 5 and only overlaps its circulation path on a part downstream of the cutting device 3 and upstream of the laying station 2, takes the MO sleeves, open, and put on the products P.
Le groupe de pose 7 se compose d'un convoyeur à bande sans fin 71 passant sur deux roues 72 assurant son entraînement synchrone. La bande sans fin 71 est de préférence une bande crantée portant des unités de pose 8 comportant des étireurs s'engageant dans les manchons ouverts MO pour les transférer dans le poste de pose 2 au- dessus des produits P synchronisés sur la ligne de défilement 1 pour descendre sur un produit P, déposer le manchon M puis remonter et se préparer pour la prise d'un nouveau manchon The laying unit 7 consists of an endless conveyor belt 71 passing on two wheels 72 ensuring its synchronous drive. The endless belt 71 is preferably a notched strip carrying laying units 8 comprising drawers engaging in the open sleeves MO to transfer them to the laying station 2 above the products P synchronized on the line of scrolling 1 to go down on a product P, remove the sleeve M then go up and prepare for the taking of a new sleeve
Les manchons M sont des manchons étirables ou des manchons non étirables mais thermorétractables qui, après leur pose,
sont rétractés sur les produits P. Cette thermorétraction se fait en aval du poste de pose 2 dans un poste de thermorétraction non représenté. The sleeves M are stretch sleeves or non-stretchable but heat-shrinkable sleeves which, after being laid, are retracted on the products P. This heat shrinkage is downstream of the station 2 in a heat shrink post not shown.
Les figures 3, 4, 5 montrent de façon plus détaillée le groupe de transfert 5 composé d'une bande sans fin 51 , extérieurement lisse et intérieurement munie de deux bandes crantées 51 1 , 512, laissant entre elles une bande lisse de glissement 513. La partie lisse 513 est munie de paires d'orifices 514A,B de prise de vide. La bande crantée supérieure 51 1 est munie de perçages de fixation 515 pour recevoir, sur le côté extérieur, les unités de transfert 6 dont un seul exemple est re- présenté à la figure 5. Figures 3, 4, 5 show in more detail the transfer unit 5 consists of an endless belt 51, externally smooth and internally provided with two notched strips 51 1, 512, leaving between them a smooth sliding strip 513. The smooth portion 513 is provided with pairs of ports 514A, B vacuum intake. The upper toothed belt 51 1 is provided with fixing bores 515 for receiving, on the outer side, the transfer units 6 of which only one example is shown in FIG. 5.
Le groupe de transfert 5 comporte un bâti 53 (figure 3) portant les roues d'entraînement et de synchronisation 52 dont au moins l'une est motrice, reliée à un dispositif d'entraînement 10. The transfer unit 5 comprises a frame 53 (FIG. 3) carrying the drive and synchronization wheels 52, at least one of which is driving, connected to a driving device 10.
Les roues 52 sont en fait composées chacune de deux roues coaxiales jumelées, formées par la superposition de deux roues dentées, solidaires en rotation et écartées suivant l'axe de rotation pour être en prise avec les bandes crantées 51 1, 512 de part et d'autre de la bande lisse intermédiaire 513. The wheels 52 are in fact each composed of two twinned coaxial wheels, formed by the superposition of two toothed wheels, integral in rotation and spaced apart along the axis of rotation to engage the toothed strips 51 1, 512 on both sides. other of the intermediate smooth band 513.
A l'intérieur de la boucle formée par la bande sans fin 51, le bâti 53 porte un caisson aspirant 55 composé de parties 55A,B,C s'étendant sur une certaine longueur du trajet de la bande 51, sur la partie rectiligne, sur la boucle autour de l'une des roues 52 et sur une partie du trajet rectiligne en aval de cette boucle. Inside the loop formed by the endless belt 51, the frame 53 carries a suction box 55 composed of portions 55A, B, C extending along a length of the path of the strip 51, on the rectilinear part, on the loop around one of the wheels 52 and a portion of the straight path downstream of this loop.
Ce caisson 55 est appliqué par son côté ouvert, de ma- nière étanche contre le côté intérieur de la bande lisse 513 de la courroie 51, de façon que les orifices 514A,B communiquent avec l'intérieur du caisson 55. Le caisson 55 est relié en un ou plusieurs points (ici deux points, figure 4) au dispositif de vide 9 composé d'une pompe à vide ou une pompe aspirante 91 par des conduites 92, 93. This box 55 is applied by its open side, in a sealed manner against the inner side of the smooth strip 513 of the belt 51, so that the orifices 514A, B communicate with the interior of the box 55. The box 55 is connected at one or more points (here two points, FIG. 4) to the vacuum device 9 composed of a vacuum pump or a suction pump 91 via lines 92, 93.
La figure 4 montre une partie seulement du caisson 55 et le branchement de deux conduites 92, 93. Figure 4 shows only part of the box 55 and the connection of two lines 92, 93.
Les unités de transfert 6 apparaissent en vue de dessous à la figure 3 et en perspective à la figure 5. Ces unités 6 sont composées d'un châssis 61 muni de galets de guidage 62 coopérant avec un rail haut et un rail bas non représentés. Le châssis 61 porte deux bras de
pince 63A,B articulés au châssis 61 et reliés à un mécanisme de commande par came et coulisse 64, monté sur le châssis 61 et commandant par ses galets 641 circulant dans un chemin de came non représenté, autour du chemin défini par le convoyeur. The transfer units 6 appear in bottom view in Figure 3 and in perspective in Figure 5. These units 6 are composed of a frame 61 provided with guide rollers 62 cooperating with a high rail and a low rail not shown. The frame 61 carries two arms of clip 63A, B hinged to the frame 61 and connected to a cam and slide control mechanism 64, mounted on the frame 61 and controlling by its rollers 641 flowing in a cam path not shown, around the path defined by the conveyor.
Les bras de pince 63A,B sont montés pivotants autour de leur axe ; ils sont creux sur leur partie supérieure se terminant par une traverse haute constituant un patin aspirant 65A,B. Les patins 65A,B ont une surface active 651 tournée l'une vers l'autre et qui est perméable, par exemple munie de trous d'aspiration. La partie creuse des bras 63A,B est reliée à l'autre extrémité, à une conduite 66A,B reliée à l'un des trous du châssis 61 portant un connecteur non détaillé s'appuyant sur la surface extérieure du convoyeur 51 à la hauteur des deux orifices 514A,B. The clamp arms 63A, B are pivotally mounted about their axis; they are hollow on their upper part ending in a high crossbar constituting a suction pad 65A, B. The pads 65A, B have an active surface 651 facing towards each other and which is permeable, for example provided with suction holes. The hollow portion of the arms 63A, B is connected at the other end, to a pipe 66A, B connected to one of the holes of the frame 61 carrying a non-detailed connector resting on the outer surface of the conveyor 51 to the height two holes 514A, B.
Les deux bras 63A,B sont mis en dépression de façon commandée, séparément, pour permettre la prise du manchon coupé. The two arms 63A, B are depressed in a controlled manner, separately, to allow the setting of the cut sleeve.
En effet, la gaine G, mince, n'a pas de rigidité suffisante pour donner de la tenue au manchon en cours de coupe ou après la coupe de sorte que lorsque l'unité de transfert 6 arrive dans le poste de coupe 3 avec ses bras 63A,B ouverts, il est nécessaire qu'un seul patin 65A,B soit activé pour aspirer et accrocher le manchon M. Si les deux patins 65A,B étaient activés en même temps par aspiration, au moment de la prise du manchon, celui-ci serait accroché dans une position très aléatoire aux deux patins, ce qui ne permettrait plus de l'ouvrir ; celui- ci serait accroché simultanément par dépression aux deux patins par des parties du manchon symétriques par rapport à l'axe du manchon, de sorte que même si les deux bras devaient se rapprocher puis s'écarter ensuite, cela ne permettrait pas d'ouvrir convenablement le manchon qui pourrait rester accroché à l'un des deux patins 65A,B. Indeed, the sheath G, thin, has no stiffness sufficient to give resistance to the sleeve during cutting or after cutting so that when the transfer unit 6 arrives in the cutting station 3 with its 63A arms, B open, it is necessary that a single shoe 65A, B is activated to suck and hang the sleeve M. If the two shoes 65A, B were activated at the same time by suction, at the time of taking the sleeve, it would be hooked in a very random position to both skates, which would no longer open it; it would be simultaneously hooked by depression to the two pads by parts of the sleeve symmetrical with respect to the axis of the sleeve, so that even if the two arms were to move closer and then move away, this would not open suitably the sleeve which could remain attached to one of the two pads 65A, B.
En revanche, si le manchon M est d'abord accroché à un seul patin, il sera aspiré à celui-ci de sorte qu'en refermant la pince formée par les bras 66A,B puis mise en dépression du deuxième bras en plus du premier bras, on pourra ouvrir le manchon en écartant les deux parties 651 /bras 63A,B. La commande de l'aspiration différenciée des deux bras se fait dans le caisson 55A, directement au niveau du dispositif de coupe 3 : dans cette zone ZI (figure 3) du chemin de défilement
des unités 6 dans le dispositif de coupe, la dépression alimente seulement l'un des bras 63A,B, de préférence le bras aval 63A selon le sens de défilement de la bande sans fin 51 et des unités 6, alors que le bras amont 63A n'est plus alimenté et n'attire pas le manchon. La pince peut alors se refermer sur le manchon M et l'unité de transfert 6 être refermée sur le manchon M arrivant dans la zone Z2 pour être mis en dépression dans les deux bras 63A,B ; les bras peuvent de nouveau s'écarter en tenant chacune un côté opposé du manchon pour ouvrir celui-ci. Dans la zone ZI, l'orifice 514A associé au bras amont 63A est obturé par un cache dans la partie 55A. Le caisson 55 est de nouveau libéré dans la zone Z2 de sa partie 55A. However, if the sleeve M is first attached to a single pad, it will be sucked to it so that by closing the clamp formed by the arms 66A, B and put in depression of the second arm in addition to the first arm, we can open the sleeve by removing the two parts 651 / arm 63A, B. The control of the differentiated suction of the two arms is done in the box 55A, directly at the cutting device 3: in this zone ZI (Figure 3) of the scroll path units 6 in the cutting device, the depression feeds only one of the arms 63A, B, preferably the downstream arm 63A in the running direction of the endless belt 51 and units 6, while the upstream arm 63A is no longer powered and does not attract the sleeve. The clamp can then close on the sleeve M and the transfer unit 6 to be closed on the sleeve M arriving in the zone Z2 to be depressed in the two arms 63A, B; the arms can again deviate each holding an opposite side of the sleeve to open it. In the zone ZI, the orifice 514A associated with the upstream arm 63A is closed by a cover in the part 55A. The box 55 is released again in the zone Z2 of its portion 55A.
A la figure 5, les deux bras de pince 63A,B de l'unité de pince 6 sont représentés fermés, appliqués l'un contre l'autre. L'intervalle entre deux unités 6 voisines sur la bande sans fin 71 est réduit au minimum de sorte qu'en position ouverte, les deux bras voisins de deux unités voisines se touchent. In Figure 5, the two clamp arms 63A, B of the clamp unit 6 are shown closed, applied against each other. The interval between two neighboring units 6 on the endless belt 71 is minimized so that in the open position, the two adjacent arms of two neighboring units are touching.
La position ouverte est suffisante pour recevoir au passage dans le poste de coupe 3, l'extrémité de la gaine arrivant à travers la guillotine ouverte, quelle que soit la déformation que peut présenter cette extrémité de manchon M sortant, si la gaine, très mince, n'a pas de rigidité. The open position is sufficient to receive the passage in the cutting station 3, the end of the sheath arriving through the open guillotine, regardless of the deformation that may present this outgoing sleeve end M, if the sheath, very thin , does not have rigidity.
Ces opérations se font en cinématique quasi continue puisque l'unité de transfert 6 ne s'arrête pas à son passage sous le dispositif de coupe 3 de sorte que l'entrée de l'extrémité de la gaine, dans l'intervalle entre les deux patins, puis leur fermeture, se font pendant la descente et la coupe du manchon. These operations are done in almost continuous kinematics since the transfer unit 6 does not stop at its passage under the cutting device 3 so that the entrance of the end of the sheath, in the gap between the two skates, then their closure, are made during the descent and the cut of the sleeve.
Selon les figures 1, 2B, 6, le groupe de pose 7 se compose du convoyeur sans fin 71 équipé des unités d'étireurs 8 et de chemins de came pour commander les unités d'étireurs 8. According to FIGS. 1, 2B, 6, the laying unit 7 consists of the endless conveyor 71 equipped with drawing units 8 and cam tracks for controlling the drawing units 8.
L'unité de pose 8, encore appelée unité d'étireurs (figure 6), se compose d'un châssis auxiliaire 81 porté par le châssis principal fixé à la bande sans fin 71 et qui a une structure globale analogue à celle du groupe de transfert 5 pour être entraînée en synchronisme.
Le châssis auxiliaire 81 est commandé en montée et descente par rapport au chemin principal par des galets non représentés, circulant dans des rails. The laying unit 8, also called the drawing unit (FIG. 6), consists of an auxiliary frame 81 carried by the main frame fixed to the endless belt 71 and which has a global structure similar to that of the group of transfer 5 to be driven in synchronism. The auxiliary frame 81 is controlled up and down with respect to the main path by unrepresented rollers, circulating in rails.
Le chemin auxiliaire 81 porte deux paires d'étireurs 82 ayant chacune deux étireurs 822 solidaires d'un bras 821. Les quatre étireurs en forme de lames à section, de préférence courbe, définissent un contour rectangulaire pour tenir et étirer le manchon M en fonction de la section du produit à manchonner. Auxiliary path 81 carries two pairs of drawers 82 each having two drawers 822 integral with an arm 821. The four sectionally shaped, preferably curved, section-shaped stretchers define a rectangular contour to hold and stretch the sleeve M according to of the section of the product to be sleeved.
Les bras 82 coulissent transversalement dans un rail 83 du châssis 81 en étant commandés par une liaison à coulisses et galets 84 dont le porte-galets 85 est solidaire d'une tige de commande 86 munie à son extrémité d'un galet 87 circulant dans un chemin de came non représenté pour commander l'ouverture /fermeture des étireurs 822, combinée à leur descente/ montée pour la prise de manchons, leur étirage, la pose sur le produit et le dégagement des étireurs. Ces moyens connus de façon générale ne nécessitent pas de description détaillée. The arms 82 slide transversely in a rail 83 of the frame 81, being controlled by a link with slides and rollers 84 whose roller carrier 85 is integral with a control rod 86 provided at its end with a roller 87 circulating in a cam path not shown for controlling the opening / closing of the drawers 822, combined with their descent / mounting for the taking of sleeves, their stretching, laying on the product and the release of the drawers. These generally known means do not require a detailed description.
Le chemin de circulation 71 du groupe de pose de manchons 7 est au-dessus, au moins en partie, du chemin de circulation 51 du groupe de transfert 5 dans le secteur dans lequel les unités de transfert 6 portent les manchons ouverts MO pour que les étireurs 822 des unités d'étireurs 8 puissent pénétrer dans chaque manchon MO, s'écarter pour commencer à étirer le manchon et le tenir suffisamment pour l'enlever des unités dont la dépression au niveau des patins 65A,B est à ce moment coupée, libérant le manchon M. L'étirage se poursuit ou se maintient jusqu'à l'arrivée de l'unité d'étirage 8 dans le poste de pose de manchons 2 pour descendre sur le produit P, y fixer le manchon ouvert, étiré et s'en dégager en remontant. The circulation path 71 of the sleeve laying group 7 is above, at least in part, the circulation path 51 of the transfer unit 5 in the sector in which the transfer units 6 carry the open sleeves MO so that the stretchers 822 of the drawing units 8 can penetrate into each sleeve MO, move apart to start stretching the sleeve and hold it sufficiently to remove it from the units whose depression at the pads 65A, B is at this moment cut off, releasing the sleeve M. The stretching continues or is maintained until the arrival of the drawing unit 8 in the sleeving station 2 to go down on the product P, to fix the sleeve open, stretched and get off by going up.
Les opérations sont commandés par les chemins de came et de guidage suivis par les galets du châssis (mouvement de montée et de descente de l'unité d'étireurs) et le galet de commande de chaque éti- reur qui ouvre les étireurs ou les referme. The operations are controlled by the cam and guide paths followed by the chassis rollers (raising and lowering movement of the drawers unit) and the control roller of each squeegee which opens the drawers or closes them off. .
Selon les figures 1 et 7, l'installation de pose de manchons M est de préférence logée dans une enceinte d'isolation 100 munie d'accès pour les interventions d'entretien et en cas de panne ou
d'incident. Cette enceinte 100 entoure les éléments de l'installation de pose pour en protéger l'accès et sécuriser tout en assurant une certaine isolation phonique, en particulier pour couper le bruit généré par le défilement des produits à manchonner. La ligne de défilement 1 y pénètre par l'entrée 1 1 et en sort par la sortie 13. According to FIGS. 1 and 7, the sleeving installation M is preferably housed in an isolation enclosure 100 provided with access for maintenance operations and in the event of a breakdown or incident. This enclosure 100 surrounds the elements of the installation installation to protect access and secure while providing some sound insulation, particularly to cut the noise generated by the scrolling of products to sleeve. The scroll line 1 enters through the entry 1 1 and exits through the exit 13.
L'alimentation en gaine 4 encombrante mais non bruyante est à l'extérieur de l'enceinte d'isolation 100, ce qui facilite l'accès pour le changement de bobines de gaine B, B\ Le chemin d'alimentation 40 du poste de coupe de manchons 3 reliant le dévideur de gaine 41 en position accessible, au sol, suivi du tampon 42, passe ensuite en hauteur pour laisser le libre accès à l'enceinte 100 et en particulier au poste de pose 2 et à la ligne de défilement 1. Puis la gaine G descend dans le dispositif de coupe 3. The bulky but non-noisy duct supply 4 is outside the isolation enclosure 100, which facilitates access for the change of duct coils B, B \ The supply path 40 of the control station cut sleeves 3 connecting the sleeve feeder 41 in the accessible position on the ground, followed by the buffer 42, then passes in height to allow free access to the enclosure 100 and in particular to the station 2 and the scroll line 1. Then the sheath G goes down into the cutting device 3.
Selon la figure 7, le dispositif de coupe 3 est avantageusement installé au-dessus du groupe de transfert 5, à côté du groupe de pose 7. La ligne de défilement 1 produits et le groupe de pose 7 sont situés devant le groupe de transfert 5 de sorte que, globalement, l'installation est particulièrement ramassée et surtout organisée de manière ergonomique. According to FIG. 7, the cutting device 3 is advantageously installed above the transfer unit 5, next to the laying unit 7. The running line 1 produced and the laying group 7 are located in front of the transfer unit 5 so that, overall, the installation is particularly collected and especially organized ergonomically.
Le groupe de transfert 5 est installé au-dessus du plan figurant la ligne de défilement 1. Le groupe de vide 9 est situé dans le volume entouré par le convoyeur sans fin du groupe de transfert 5 et le dispositif d'entraînement 10, c'est-à-dire le moteur avec sa transmission et les liaisons reliées à la ou aux roues d'entraînement 52 du groupe de transfert 5 est également installé dans le volume enveloppé par le convoyeur sans fin 51 (figure 2A prise en combinaison avec la figure 7) . The transfer unit 5 is installed above the plane showing the scroll line 1. The vacuum group 9 is located in the volume surrounded by the endless conveyor of the transfer unit 5 and the drive device 10, that is, the motor with its transmission and the links connected to the drive wheel (s) 52 of the transfer unit 5 is also installed in the volume wrapped by the endless conveyor 51 (FIG. 2A taken in combination with FIG. 7).
Selon la représentation schématique globale de la figure 7, la gaine G arrivant du chemin 40, passant en partie haute, au- dessus du volume d'accès à la ligne de défilement, descend dans le dispositif de coupe 3. Ce dispositif de coupe 3 et le groupe de pose 7 occupent la partie supérieure du volume de l'enceinte alors que le groupe de transfert 5 occupe la partie basse, globalement en dessous de la ligne de défilement 1, située à l'avant de l'installation pour être facilement accessible sur toute sa longueur et permettre de remédier facilement et
rapidement aux éventuels incidents de fonctionnement liés au défilement des produits.
According to the overall schematic representation of FIG. 7, the sheath G arriving from the path 40, passing in the upper part, above the volume of access to the scroll line, descends into the cutting device 3. This cutting device 3 and the laying group 7 occupy the upper part of the volume of the enclosure while the transfer unit 5 occupies the lower part, generally below the scroll line 1, located at the front of the installation to be easily accessible over its entire length and make it easy to remedy quickly to possible operational incidents related to scrolling products.
