Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for Acquisition of elongated, at least approximately cylindrical Production units 1, preferably tubes, sleeves or Cans that come continuously from a production line and by means of a grouping unit for the formation of Product groups with a selectable number of units, from a continuously delivering_conveying unit in a Group carriers that accept product groups with production starts stores, of which the product groups by means of a Box filling unit can be filled into a box.
  • EP-A-0'438'974 discloses a device with the features of Preamble of claim 1.
  • the product units will come from the production line dispensed into a compensator from which the tubes or Sleeves are placed on a group carrier and the Product groups from the grouping carrier into a provided one Box to be pushed.
  • the group carrier is here Carriage that has to be moved back and forth accordingly during which time that of the production line upcoming product units included in the compensator become.
  • EP-A-0'594'917 works with two group carriers, which are run one after the other on tapes are, so that a continuous delivery of the product units can be done without a compensator is required.
  • tubes or sleeves which are empty, elements open on one side delivered to a filling location become.
  • the tubes, sleeves or cartridges are thin-walled cylindrical elements with their open sides to the Box lids have to be filled into boxes and so get to the bottlers. The filled units are then used on other packaging machines further treated.
  • the tubes must therefore be large Units are transported with the least possible Volume loss.
  • the entire device is in a chassis frame 0 arranged which essentially the edges of a cube or Kubus' corresponds.
  • Product units 1 come continuously from one here only schematically shown end of a production line 2.
  • the product units are from a conveyor drum 1 delivered in product gondolas 5 in an endless chain a conveyor unit 3 are incorporated.
  • About various Deflection pulleys get the gondolas 5 with them located product units 1 to a flexible subcarrier 6, on which the product units 1 by a corresponding tilting movement of the product gondolas 5 stored be followed by a carriage 13 by a stepper motor 14 is driven so that the Product units 1 in corresponding product receptacles 7 a group carrier 8 fall.
  • the width of the Group carrier 8 corresponds to the width of the to be filled Box.
  • the grouping carrier 8 is interchangeable to the Sizes of the product units to be filled adapted to become.
  • the mean distance from two neighboring ones Product receptacles 7 each correspond to the diameter of the cylindrical product units 1.
  • the width of the grouping carrier 8 can also be wider than the box to be filled and the machine is controlled accordingly so that only part of the product receptacles 7 are filled. are filled all product receptacles 7 to be filled, pushes Slide 9 the product units 1 from the grouping carrier 8 perpendicular to the plane of the drawing on an intermediate plate 11. However, this can only be seen in FIG. 2.
  • the slider 9 is actuated by a slide drive 10. This or Similar funding and grouping units are known and it is is in this regard to the publications mentioned directed.
  • the device of Figure 1 is 90 ° shown rotated. Again you can see the chassis frame 0, in which the conveyor unit 3 and the Grouping unit 4 is arranged. Recognizes in this view the box filler 20, which is even closer to is to describe.
  • the box filling unit 20 is one Angle ⁇ inclined to the vertical.
  • the box filler 20 is inclined at the top away from the grouping unit 4.
  • a pivotable intermediate plate 11 is arranged between the grouping unit 4 and the box filling unit 20, a pivotable intermediate plate 11 is arranged.
  • the intermediate plate 11 is about a pivot axis 12 displaceable.
  • the product units lie on the swiveling intermediate plate 11, it pivots about the pivot axis 12 into a slope that corresponds to the slope of the box. In this position, the product units slide in the grouped shape from the intermediate plate 11 in the ready Box S.
  • an additional Insertion slide 14 be present, which is purely schematic here is shown in its two end positions. Is the Product group 15 in box S, swivels the Intermediate plate 11 in turn in the position in which it can add a new product group. At the same time the box S around the diameter of the to be filled Product units lowered. This way the whole Box filled and then in the low position S ' lowered. It is supported by a sliding support 61 led.
  • the slidable support 61 is on a rail 63 arranged perpendicular to the box filling unit 20 runs and thus inclined by the angle ⁇ to the horizontal is.
  • the displaceable support 61 is then after drove down and the filled box is removed from the swiveling support table 60 added and then transported away.
  • Box feeder 40 There is one for feeding the boxes to be filled Box feeder 40 is provided.
  • the box feeder too 40 is advantageously inclined by the angle ⁇ arranged.
  • the box feeder 40 is two perpendicular roller conveyors 41 are formed. Another runs above the box feeder 40 Rail 56 parallel to the previously described rail 63, that is again inclined by the angle ⁇ to the horizontal.
  • On a box gripper 50 is displaceable on this rail 56 arranged.
  • the box gripper 50 has suction cups 51, which corresponding suction arms 52 are arranged.
  • the box gripper 40 can be described between the two sliding bars through one on the box feeder Take 40 available boxes and thanks to the rotatable swivel arm 52 from a lying position to a swivel standing position.
  • the box filling unit 20 consists essentially of two parallel top and bottom rails 21 and two bars that move and slide in opposite directions 22.
  • the rails 21 and the displaceable spars 22 thus form an adjustable square 23.
  • the width of this square is adaptable to the width of the box to be filled S.
  • Das entire adjustable square 23 thus defines the inclination ⁇ of the filling unit 20.
  • a spindle 24 is provided, which is mounted centrally and two Spindle sections with opposite thread sections having. On each spindle section 25 is stored adjustable spar 22. If the spindle 24 in one Turned in the direction, the two spars 22 move evenly away from each other, the spindle 24 is in the turned the other way, the two approach sliding spars 22.
  • the box gripper 50 thus moves on the rail 56 Direction to the box feeder 40, where the suction 51 the Grab the box, turn it 90 °, if necessary, and move forward between the two spars 22, whereby the box gripper 50 on the rail 56 again forward moves.
  • the pivot arm 55 rotates and the rollers 54 press the Side walls of the box in the exactly vertical position.
  • the Actuating plate 38 presses on the bent end 34 'of the clamp plate 34, the compression spring 36 is compressed and elastically deformed while at the same time the clamp plate 34 is about the pivot axis 35 emotional. Otherwise on the box guide plate 33 adjacent clamp plate 34 moves from the same away and releases a space into which the side Box wall drives in. This position is in FIG. 4 shown in the lower half.
