Definitions

  • the invention relates to an apparatus for holding various layers of containers or bottles on pallets in stable and orderly arrangement.
  • bottles 2 and similar containers having a neck 4, referred to hereafter as containers 2 were stacked in layers on pallets 11, and the various layers were separated by general rigid partitions 1, commonly known as layer pads, which are often reusable, each being laid on the openings 5 of the containers 2 or bottles of each layer and in turn supporting the overlying layer of containers 2 or bottles resting on their respective bases 13.
  • layer pads commonly known as layer pads
  • a first object of this invention is to provide an improved apparatus as described hereinbefore that allows to achieve an increased and improved performance as compared with prior art apparatus.
  • a second object is to provide sealing of bottles or containers, in addition to arrangement thereof on the pallet.
  • the invention relates to an apparatus composed of a number of rigid sheet- like perforated partitions 1, preferably with circular holes 3 aligned along lines that may be equally spaced, perpendicular or intersecting at 60°, and possibly alternated with various layers of containers 2 to be "palletized", which may be either empty or full and anyhow sealed or to be sealed.
  • the holes 3 of the rigid sheet-like partitions (1) are closed by membranes of stretchable plastic polymer membranes 8.
  • one apparatus performs both the functions of multiple application of diaphragms or membranes 8 to the openings of the bottles 2 or containers, and of orderly arrangement of the latter on pallets in various superimposed layers, by using rigid partitions 1 with holes 3 closed by said stretchable plastic polymer membranes 8.
  • Current perforated partitions 1 which hold layers of bottles 2 or containers on orderly arrangement do not seal the bottles 2 or containers.
  • this invention is mainly characterized by the presence of stretchable plastic polymer diaphragms 6 which, when stretched over the holes 3 of the partitions 1, are ready to seal the openings of bottles 2 or containers .
  • the rigid partitions 1 have the function of carrying the sealing membranes 8, and to hold the bottles in position when they are engaged on their necks, these rigid partitions may be relatively thin and made of a non excessively rigid material. This provides the advantage of affording material savings, both in terms of material costs and in terms of environmental impact costs. Furthermore, by limiting the rigidity of partitions to what is required for their specific function, the increase of the palletized neck weight, determined by the partitions, is also reduced.
  • the rigidity of partitions is decreased to achieve weight reduction and material savings results, as an adverse effect the application of partitions on bottle necks and simultaneous sealing of openings by the stretchable polymer membranes 8 becomes more difficult, because the intrinsic rigidity of the partitions is insufficient for uniform pressure distribution all over the partitions and thence all over the holes 3, and the corresponding membranes 8 subtended thereby.
  • the lower rigidity of partitions may cause local deformations during the step of compression against bottles or containers, during which the membrane is stretched over the openings of the bottles or containers, whereby sealing may occur improperly in certain areas, or not at all.
  • the invention further provides, in combination with the above, a tool for applying the partitions onto the necks of the bottles or containers.
  • This tool is comprised of a device for applying the rigid sheet-like partitions (1) and the sealing membranes (8) to the openings of containers or bottles (2) by elastic stretching and rupture of the membranes, so that the latter are bonded to such openings of bottles or containers in a sealing position, and which device is composed of a rigid grid (13) formed by rigid bars (14) joined together to form a meshed surface, which meshed surface has spaces (15) between said bars (14) arranged in such a manner that the positions of all the centers of said spaces (15) simultaneously correspond to the positions of all the openings of the containers or bottles (2) on a layer of the pallet.
  • the grid meshes substantially have such a size and shape that the holes 2 of the partition to be applied and thence the corresponding packages or openings of the bottles or containers are inscribed or encircled by the segments of material that delimit one mesh of the grid.

  • Fig. 3 is a side view of an array of stacked bottles, packaged by using the apparatus as shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
  • Fig. 4 is a view of an enlarged detail of the portion of a rigid sheet-like partition 1 at a bottle neck receiving hole, and which hole has a film for temporarily sealing the opening of the bottle, when the bottle neck is partially introduced in said hole.
  • Fig. 5 is a view like that of Fig. 4, in which the bottle has its neck fully introduced in the hole and the sealing film is stably applied to the opening of the bottle.

  • Fig. 10 shows the partition according to the embodiment of Figures 7 to 9 in its fully applied condition, with particular reference to a detail of this partition, including three holes engaged on the necks of three bottles, which have been sealed at the same time as the partition has been applied to the bottles.
  • Fig. 11 is a perspective view of a tool for applying partitions to a layer of bottles or containers on a pallet.
  • Figure 12 is a schematic perspective view of a grid 13 in combination with a partition 1. One row of holes 3 is shown on the partition and the dash lines show the projections of the bars that form the grid.
  • the holes 3 of these partitions 1 are designed to receive the packages 4 of the containers 2 whereas the vertical axes of the containers 2 of one layer are preferably disposed along said parallel equally spaced lines.
  • the packages 4 of the containers 2 of one layer are received in the holes 3 of the directly overlying partition 1 to abutment, i.e. until the diameter of the holes 3 of the partition coincides with and stops the partition at the section of the neck 4 having an equal diameter.
  • all the packages 4 of the containers 2 or bottles are locked by coplanar homologous horizontal sections, formed by the perforated partitions and are horizontally connected thereto.
  • the holes 3 with stretchable plastic diaphragms 8 is that a greater number of containers 2 or bottles may be stacked or loaded in a volume equal to that of traditional stacks: for instance, considering standard bottles 2, five layers may be averagely stacked instead of four, and these may be better attached to the pallet 11, and be less exposed to mutual motion, whereby handling ruptures are reduced.
  • each base 12 and/or maximum diameter of each container 2 or bottle shall be able to be received between the packages 4 of the underlying layer, projecting out of the holes 3 of the partition 1 that supports them.
  • Many arrangements may be theoretically envisaged, but only two of them are advantageously used in practice because, as a function of the hole 3 diameter / container diameter ratio, they optimize the occupation of the available space on each partition:
  • optimization is obtained by arranging the containers 2 or bottles with their vertical axes intersecting the partitions 1 at the vertices of equilateral triangles, i.e. along parallel equally spaced lines, intersecting at an angle of 120°, which allow each container 2 or bottle to be adjacent to, but not necessarily in contact with six other containers, whose vertical axes are disposed at the vertices of an equilateral and isogonal triangle.
  • partitions 1 since the latter have to alternately withstand a bending moment at the periphery of the layers containing the greater number of containers 2, these partitions 1, as defined in claim 5, shall be sufficiently rigid, therefore they may be formed, for instance, by two sheets 6 interleaved with a separating layer 7 or planar core, which is able to generate a sufficient resisting moment to minimize bending at the edges of the partitions 1.
  • the sheets 6 and the separating layers 7, may be advantageously either glued together or solidarized, even temporarily, during operation, to allow the use of separating layers 7 having various thicknesses depending on loads or, as will be more apparent hereafter, as defined in claims 6 to 11, to stretch an advantageously sandwiched stretchable membrane of plastic polymers such as those mentioned below, or equivalent thereto.
  • One method of temporary solidarization of said components of the partitions 1 consists in fastening these components 6 and 7 together by means of snap fasteners, expanders, elastic buttons or clips.
  • This invention which is already advantageous per se, is further volumetrically implemented, as defined in claims 6 to 11, by the use of diaphragms 8, obtained from a thin membrane of a stretchable plastic polymer, such as "polyethylenes”, “polyvinylchlorides”, “ethyl vinylacetates”, etc., stretched and fastened parallel to the partitions 1 in such a manner as to form coverings to close the holes, as shown in Figures 4 to 6.
  • the purpose of this improvement is simultaneous sealing of several edges of the openings 5 of the containers 2 or bottles.
  • the containers that come out of manufacturing lines are in sterile conditions, due to their temperature, and sterility is preserved if they are sealed by the above diaphragms 8 when they are still hot, thanks to the hermetic quality of such seals. Furthermore, these sealed containers 2 need no further washing process before being filled, which improves cost-effectiveness.
  • the method of application of the seals, each corresponding to a hole closed by a diaphragm, consists in pressing the partition 1 perpendicular thereto against the openings 13 of the containers 2 or bottles.
  • this vertical movement is applied with a sufficient force, it causes the diaphragm of the membrane 8 to be stretched over the edge of the opening 5 of the container 2, and possibly torn, if desired, around the edge of the opening 5 when stretching is continued to annular rupture, to leave a membrane disk or a seal adhering to the edge. If no tearing occurs and the plastic polymer in use has suitable deformation properties, then the membrane is not torn off and caps are formed having the shape of inverted paraboloids of revolution, which simultaneously and integrally seal all the openings 5 of the containers 2.
  • each partition 1 having holes 3 closed by diaphragms is substantially properly positioned over a layer of pre-arranged containers 1 and then pressed thereon until sealing occurs, with or without annular tearing, as defined above.
  • the membrane 8 forming the diaphragms to be applied to the partitions 1 may be attached to the partitions 1 either by being simply glued to one of the two outside faces of the partition 1, or by being sandwiched between one of the sheets 6 and the separating layer 7 by gluing or spot fastener means, such as buttons, clips or even magnetized layers.
  • the membrane 8 that forms the diaphragms 8 may further be provided as a single sheet of the same size as the partitions 1, which may be possibly attached along the edge, by being glued either all over the surface or at spots, as generally explained in the previous paragraph or along the edges of the partitions 1, either as parallel bands, or as disks or polygons having a sufficient diameter to allow bonding to the partitions 1 for seal application.
  • the diameter of the holes 3 in the partitions 1 shall be about 20/30% larger than that of the openings 5. If the membrane is not to be necessarily torn off but only stretched until the diameter of the holes 3 coincides with an equal diameter of the neck 4, i.e. to abutment of the partition 1, the diameter of the holes 3 will have to be larger and the stretchable plastic polymer will have to be more resistant to deformation without breaking.
  • the invention includes an improvement, as defined in claims 12 and 13, for properly positioning the holes 3 of the partitions 1 on the openings 5 of the containers 2, comprising at least two holes 9 for each partition 1 preferably disposed at the corners of the partitions, which will be fitted on at least two rigid vertical rods 10 having the same or a slightly smaller diameter, which are vertically fixed or removable in any suitable manner to the pallets, as shown in Figure 3. These at least two holes 9 will help to position the centers of the openings 5 of all the containers of the same layer in exact coincidence with the centers of each hole 3 of the partitions 1.
  • FIGS 7 to 10 show a second embodiment of the invention, in which the holes of the partitions have diaphragms 8 formed by membranes subtended by said holes.
  • the partitions 1 used to seal, stack and stabilize the bottles 2 or containers in orderly arrangement are usually used various times for cost effectiveness purposes. To this end, they have to exhibit a sufficient resistance and not be subjected to important deformations. Regarding their strength they are preferably made of three permanently attached rigid layers 101, 201, 301: two outer layers 101, 301 which isomorphically absorb the compression and pulling stresses and an inner layer 201 which acts as a spacer core. The holes 3 will obviously pass through the three layers.
  • the application of the membrane 8 that closes the holes 3 may occur by gluing thereof either to one of the outside surfaces of the partitions 1 and preferably on the surface closer to the opening of the bottles 2 or containers to be sealed, or between one surface of the core and that of the outer layer in contact with the core.
  • the use of stick and peel glues will facilitate both later removal of membrane parts still sticking to the partitions 1 after use and application of new membranes. If membranes are sandwiched between the core and one of the outer layers, the bond of the stick and peel glue between the surfaces of the core and the outer layers in contact with the membrane and the membrane itself will add strength to the partition 1.
  • Another simple method that does not involve the use of adhesives all over the surface, consists in stretching the sheet or band of stretchable plastic polymer between two of the layers or outside them, and only attaching it along the edges of the partition 1 either by simply gluing it, after folding it over the edges of the partition 1, or by using four rigid elastic profiles, having a narrow U section, which press the membranes against and into the partition 1 along its peripheral edges.
  • the partition 1 will be preferably composed of a high-strength layer, in turn composed of three layers attached together, as mentioned above, and another auxiliary layer.
  • the elastic profiles 19 will pinch together these two layers with the membrane sandwiched therein.
  • the apparatus Since the stacked layers have alternately different numbers of bottles 2 or containers the apparatus will have two sets of partitions 1 having respectively different numbers and positions of holes 3.
  • the holes 3 in the directly overlying or underlying layer will always have an offset arrangement, at the vertices of equal adjacent squares, but in a number that will be equal to the product of the number of holes 3 of one row + or - one hole 3 by the number of holes of one column + or - one hole 3.
  • a maximum matrix of 12 x 12 holes 3 will overlie or underlie matrices of 11 x 11 holes 3.
  • Other arrangements other than that with the holes arranged at the vertices of adjacent squares may be considered, even though they do not have the same advantageous ratio between the number of bottles 2 or containers and the available volume on the pallet.
  • the preferred embodiment of the apparatus has partitions 1 comprising each one high- strength layer composed of three layers and another auxiliary layer, with the stretched membrane 108 being sandwiched therebetween and forming diaphragms 8 at the holes.
  • the use of stick and peel glue is limited to the peripheral edges of the partitions 1 with the membrane 108 being folded around them to be pinched between said two layers by four rigid elastic profiles 19 along the four edges of the partitions 1.
  • Figure 11 shows a tool for applying each partition to an array of bottles or containers 2.
  • This tool is a device for applying the diaphragms 8 of the rigid sheet-like partitions 1 to the openings of the containers or bottles 2 to keep them sealed.
  • the device is comprised of a rigid grid 13 formed by rigid bars 14 joined together to form a meshed surface. This surface has spaces 15 between said bars 14 in such arrangement that the positions of all the centers of these spaces 15 simultaneously correspond to the positions of all the openings of the containers or bottles 2 on a layer of the pallet.
  • the partitions are provided in combination with two or more rigid rods 12 that may be fixed perpendicular to the loading surface of the pallet. These rods may be fixed by inserting them in a corresponding support hole 11 in a peripheral area of each partition 1, with the superimposed holes 11 of the various partitions in the palletized material being coincident.
  • the rods have a length that is at least equal to the height of all the stacked, alternate layers of containers or bottles 2 and rigid sheet-like partitions 1, i.e. of the whole palletized stack.
  • the grid tool 13 has at least two bushings or rings 16 secured at its periphery in such a position that, when the bushings are fitted on the rods, the meshes of the grid are aligned with the matrix of holes 3 of the partitions.
  • the diameter of the bushings 16 is slightly larger than that of the rods 12 that are vertically mounted on the pallet and this allows the grid tool 13 to be properly positioned during application of the partitions 1 and the diaphragms 8 to the openings of the containers or bottles 2 and said tool and the partition to be guided during application of the corresponding layer of bottles on the pallet.
