Title: Improvements in or relating to machines for closuring and separating tubular packages
IPC: B65B61/02
Filed: 1965-07-30
Abstract: 1,100,849. Packaging-machines; label attaching. AUGUST WICKERSHEIM KOMM.- GES. 30 July, 1965 [6 March, 1965; 19 June, 1965], No. 32654/65. Headings B8C and B8F. [Also in Division B6] Packages formed by placing articles in a tubular web are closed at both ends by metal clips 201, Fig. 15, two such clips being simultaneously clamped round the tube, which is then cut between them to separate the packages. A printed strip 202 of material, e.g. paper, plastics or cotton, is also secured to the package by the clips. In the embodiment the neck of the tube is placed in a slot (14) in closer head 13, Fig. 1 (not shown), where it engages a switch (15) to start a motor (12). This motor sets a drive disc (31), Fig. 3 (not shown), in motion, and through which a link slide (34), advancing the clip cutting and clenching members, is moved towards a fixed die 28, Fig. 4. The clenching members 50, 51, Figs. 7 and 10 (latter not shown), are connected directly to the slide 34 and entrain under the action of a coupling pin 60, a cutter 40, the cutter having longitudinal grooves in which the members 50, 51 are slidable. The initiation of the movement of the cutter 40 also starts the feed, through connections 70, 73, 76, 77, of the clip material 17 into vertical slots 86, 87 in bending pins 80, 81, suitable lengths being sheared off by means of the knife 45 attached to the leading upper edge of the cutter 40. These cut-off lengths of material are then bent to a U-shape round arms 88, 90 of the pins 80, 81, by the upper and lower edges of the grooves, during the forward movement of the cutter 40. As the cutter 40 comes in contact with the die 28, the coupling pin 60 swings out of engagement with the members 50, 51, see also Fig. 11 (not shown), so that they can continue their forward movement. The bending pins 80, 81 are then forced back by the members 50, 51 into recesses 82, 83 to release the U-shaped clips, which are then carried forward by the members 50, 51, into engagement round the tube neck. The members 50, 51 are then moved back taking the cutter 40 with them, the coupling pin 60 swinging down into its original position, see also Fig. 10 (not shown), a vertical knife 47 on the cutter having severed the tube against the die 28 between the clips. A strip of printed material is fed in front of the closure strips to be included in the closure, the printing and cutting of the strip being carried out by an apparatus (see Division B6) attached to the front of the closer head.
