Abstract

A packaging system (10) utilizes two sides of a loading carousel (60), which reduces both the height and footprint of the packaging system. Mass and inertia are also reduced, allowing higher operational speeds. The loading carousel receives opened cartons (C) on a first side (8) and lowers them over product groups (B) on a second side (9).

Claims (20)

1. A packaging system for packaging articles into containers, comprising:

a loading carousel having a first side along which the containers are received and opened and a second side along which opened containers are conveyed for loading;

an article infeed system positioned to feed articles to the loading carousel along a path adjacent the second side of the loading carousel; and a discharge conveyor disposed along the second side of the loading carousel;

wherein the loading carousel transports the containers from a pickup on the first side of the loading carousel to a loading position along the second side of the loading carousel, with the containers being moved upwardly from below the articles for receiving the articles therein, after which loaded containers are received on and conveyed away from the loading carousel by the discharge conveyor.
2. The packaging system of claim 1, and further comprising a container infeed system having at least one container infeed conveyor and a container opener.
3. The packaging system of claim 1, wherein the article infeed system comprises an article conveyor having at least one lane along which the articles are conveyed.
4. The packaging system of claim 1, further comprising a selector station positioned along the second side of the loading carousel and including a series of selectors for grouping articles from the article infeed system into article groups.
5. The.packaging system of claim 1, wherein the loading carousel comprises:
a frame; and a plurality of carriers moveable along a loading path about the frame to carry the opened containers from a pickup position along the first side of the loading carousel, to a loading position along the second side of the loading carousel where the containers are moved upwardly to their loading position for receiving the articles therein.
6. The packaging system of claim 5, wherein the carriers are conveyed along a cam track about the loading carousel, the cam track having a first elevated portion along the first side of the loading carousel at which the carriers are in a position for receiving the opened containers, a lowered portion extending below the article infeed system, and a second elevated portion along the second side of the loading carousel, wherein the carriers are raised to their loading position from beneath the articles.
7. The packaging system of claim 1 and further comprising a container infeed system providing cartons having individual compartments, and wherein the articles conveyed along the article infeed system each are sized to be received in an individual compartment of the cartons.
8. The packaging system of claim 7 and further comprising a series of product guides adapted to be received within the compartments of the cartons for guiding articles into the compartments of the cartons.
9. The packaging system of claim 1 and wherein the loading carousel comprises a frame, a cam track extending about the frame, and a plurality of carriers moveable along the cam track and about the frame between a pickup position for receiving a container and a loading position at which the containers are loaded with articles.
10. The packaging system of claim 9 and wherein each of the carriers comprises a base mounted on a pair of support rods attached to the rotating frame of the carousel, a cam follower mounted to the base and adapted to engage and move along the cam track for causing the carriers to be raised and lowered, and a pair of spaced container supports adapted to engage and support the containers along side edges and corners thereof.
11. A packaging system for loading a series of articles into containers, comprising:

a loading carousel including a frame having a first side and a second side, and a plurality of carriers moveable about the carousel frame, and adapted to a series of cartons;

an article infeed system adjacent the loading carousel for feeding articles to the loading carousel; and wherein the carriers are moved into a loading position as they are moved about the frame of the loading carousel so as to move the containers downwardly onto the articles as the article groups are moved to their loading position along the second side of the loading carousel.
12. The packaging system of claim 11, and further comprising:

a selector station positioned along the second side of the loading carousel upstream from the loading position for arranging the articles from the article infeed system into article groups and forwarding the article groups to the loading position.
13. The packaging system of claim 11, wherein the loading carousel further comprises a cam track along which the carriers are conveyed as they move about the loading carousel, the cam track having a lowered portion and a raised portion for directing the carriers to their elevated and lowered positions.
14. The packaging system of claim 11, wherein the container infeed system comprises a container conveyor and a container opener.
15. The packaging system of claim 11, and wherein each of the carriers comprises a base slideably mounted on a pair of support rods attached to the frame of the carousel, a cam follower mounted to the base and adapted to engage and move along the cam track for causing the carriers to be raised and lowered, and a pair of spaced container supports adapted to engage and support the containers along side edges and corners thereof.
16. The packaging system of claim 11 and further comprising a series of product guides adapted to be received within the compartments of the cartons for guiding articles into the compartments of each of the cartons.
17. A method of packaging articles into a series of cartons comprising:
conveying the articles along an article infreed path;

conveying the cartons about a first side of a loading carousel along an initial portion of a loading path in a direction substantially parallel to and opposite from the article infeed path;

as the cartons are moved along the initial portion of their loading path, opening the cartons to a configuration for receiving the articles therein;

redirecting and conveying the opened cartons about a second side of the loading carousel and along a downstream portion of their loading path in a direction substantially parallel to and into alignment with the articles moving along the article infeed path;
and loading the articles within the cartons.
18. The method of claim 17, further comprising grouping the articles into article groups before packaging the articles within the cartons.
19. The method of claim 17, further comprising:

picking up each of the cartons with a carrier moving along the loading path;

moving the cartons to a lowered position below the article infeed path of the articles after pickup;

as the cartons are moved along the downstream portion of their loading path, raising the cartons to a loading position below the articles;
and lowering the articles into the cartons.
20. The method of claim 17 and further comprising:

moving the cartons to a raised position above the article infeed path;
and as the cartons are moved along the downstream portion of their loading path, lowering the cartons onto the articles.
