Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Verpackungsmaschine und ein Verfahren zum Verpacken von Produkten in Beuteln, insbesondere für eine Kammerbandmaschine.The present invention relates to a packaging machine and a method for packaging products in bags, in particular for a chamber belt machine.
Im Bereich der Kammerbandmaschinen ist für die Evakuierung einer Vakuumkammer üblicherweise im Deckel der Maschine eine Absaugvorrichtung vorgesehen. Da sich die Vakuumpumpe im Allgemeinen unter der Verpackungsmaschine befindet oder eine zentrale Vakuumanlage in der Nähe der Verpackungsmaschine vorgesehen ist, muss die Absaugvorrichtung über lange Rohre und Schläuche mit der Absaugvorrichtung im Deckel der Maschine verbunden werden. Dies beeinträchtigt den Zeitablauf der Vakuumerzeugung in der Kammer und hat eine hohe Fehleranfälligkeit des Systems, erhöhten Kostenaufwand und einen wenig attraktiven optischen Eindruck zur Folge.In the field of chamber belt machines, a suction device is usually provided for the evacuation of a vacuum chamber in the lid of the machine. Since the vacuum pump is generally located under the packaging machine or a central vacuum system is provided near the packaging machine, the suction device must be connected via long pipes and hoses with the suction device in the lid of the machine. This affects the timing of the vacuum generation in the chamber and has a high susceptibility to errors of the system, increased cost and a little attractive optical impression result.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, eine verbesserte Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Evakuierung der Vakuumkammer einer Verpackungsmaschine bereitzustellen.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved apparatus and method for evacuating the vacuum chamber of a packaging machine.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Verpackungsmaschine gemäß Anspruch 1 und ein Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 7. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.The object is achieved by a packaging machine according to
Durch das Vorsehen einer Absaugvorrichtung im Kammerboden der Kammerbandmaschine werden lange Rohre und Schläuche zur Vakuumpumpe vermieden. Darüber hinaus bildet die Vorrichtung gleichzeitig eine Absaugvorrichtung und eine Abdichtvorrichtung der Vakuumkammer. Es ist also nur eine Antriebseinheit für beide Funktionen notwendig, wodurch Platz und Kosten eingespart werden könnten.By providing a suction device in the chamber bottom of the chamber belt machine long pipes and hoses are avoided to the vacuum pump. In addition, the device simultaneously forms a suction device and a sealing device of the vacuum chamber. So it is only a drive unit for both functions necessary, which space and cost could be saved.

Im Folgenden wird mit Bezug auf
Das Verschließelement 8 wird durch ein erstes Gehäuseteil 11 in einer zum Kammerboden 6 senkrechten, in dieser Ausführungform vertikalen Richtung bewegt. Die Kolbenstange 10 wird in vertikaler Richtung durch ein zweites Gehäuseteil 12 geführt, wobei das zweite Gehäuseteil 12 im unteren Bereich des ersten Gehäuseteils 11 eingeschoben ist.The
Im unteren kammerbodenfernen Bereich des Verschließelements 8 ist einstückig mit diesem ein hülsenförmiges Zentrieraußenteil 81 vorgesehen, das im Betrieb, bei einer abgesenkten Position des Verschließelements 8 mit einem Zentrierinnenteil 121 des zweiten Gehäuseteils 12 ineinander greift. Dies dient der exakten linearen Führung der Kolbenstange 10.In the lower chamber floor remote area of the
Die Kolbenstange 10 ist vertikal verschiebbar. An ihrem untenren Ende ist die Kolbenstange 10 fest mit einem Kolben 131 verbunden, der wiederum in einem dritten Gehäuseteil 13 vertikal verschiebbar geführt ist. Das dritte Gehäuseteil 13 weist eine zylindrische Form auf, um den Kolben 131 aufzunehmen und zu führen. In dem dritten Gehäuseteil 13 ist ein Federelement 14 vorgesehen, das einerseits mit dem Boden des dritten Gehäuseteils 13 verbunden ist und andererseits mit der Unterseite des Kolbens 131 verbunden ist. Ebenfalls im dritten Gehäuseteil 13 ist über dem Kolben 131 eine Druckluftzuführung 16 vorgesehen, durch die der Kolben 131 im Betrieb bewegt wird.The
Um eine dichte Verschließbarkeit der Kammer 4 (siehe
Der Kolben 131 könnte ebenso durch Absaugung der Luft im unteren Bereich des dritten Gehäuseteils 13 bewegt werden. Hierbei könnte die gleiche Vakuumpumpe verwendet werden, die die Kammer 4 (siehe
The
Das Federelement 14 ist in dieser Position gespannt bzw. wird durch den Kolben 131 zusammengepresst. In dieser Position kann die Vakuumpumpe über das Absaugrohr 7 und den durch das augesenkte Verschließelement 8 entstandenen Spalt die Kammer 4 (siehe
Die Gefahr des Ansaugens eines Beutels oder eines Beutelhalses durch die Absaugvorrichtung 100 bzw. des Anlegens an das Gitter 15 und einer daraus resultierende Funktionsstörung während des Betriebs besteht nicht, da die Absaugvorrichtung 100 vorzugsweise in einer Ecke der Kammer 4 (siehe
Es ist auch denkbar mehrere Ventile und/oder Vakuumpumpen zur Leistungssteigerung vorzusehen.It is also conceivable to provide several valves and / or vacuum pumps to increase performance.
Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die Anwendung einer Kammerbandmaschine beschränkt. Sie ist auch auf eine Kammermaschine ohne Förderband anwendbar.The invention is not limited to the use of a chamber belt machine. It is also applicable to a chamber machine without a conveyor belt.
Claims (9)
wenigstens ein Verschließelement (8, 8') vorgesehen ist, das von einer ersten angehobenen Position in eine zweite abgesenkte Position bewegbar ist.Packaging machine for packaging products in bags with a lid (5) which forms a chamber (4) with a chamber bottom (6), characterized in that a suction device (100) is provided in the chamber bottom (6) that it is evacuated and the chamber (4) is gas-tight sealable, wherein
