Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Station für Etikettenband verarbeitende Etikettiermaschinen insbesondere geeignet zur Etikettierung von schrägen Flächen an Behältern wie z.B. Flaschen, Dosen, Gläsern, Kartons oder dergleichen.The present invention relates to a station for label tape processing labeling machines particularly suitable for labeling oblique surfaces on containers such as e.g. Bottles, cans, glasses, cartons or the like.

In der Getränke- und Verpackungsindustrie ist das Etikettieren von Behältern wie z.B. Flaschen oder Dosen aber auch von Kartons oder dergleichen von besonderer Bedeutung, da eine vorteilhafte und ansprechende Ausstattung der Behälter wesentlich zum Verkaufserfolg eines Produktes beiträgt.In the beverage and packaging industry, labeling of containers such as e.g. Bottles or cans but also of cardboard boxes or the like of particular importance, since a beneficial and attractive features of the container significantly contributes to the sales success of a product.

Zur Etikettierung von Flaschen, Dosen, Gläsern, Kartons oder dgl. sind zahlreiche unterschiedliche Verfahren bekannt geworden. Zu diesen Verfahren zählt auch die Methode, die Behälter mit bedruckten, selbstklebenden Folienabschnitten, so genannten Selbstklebeetiketten zu versehen, wobei diese die Umfangsflächen der Behälter zumindest teilweise umhüllen.For labeling of bottles, cans, glasses, cartons or the like. Numerous different methods have become known. These methods also include the method of providing the containers with printed, self-adhesive film sections, so-called self-adhesive labels, these enclosing the peripheral surfaces of the container at least partially.

Um die Verarbeitung derartiger Selbstklebeetiketten zu vereinfachen ist es üblich, diese in den entsprechenden Etikettiermaschinen nicht lose und einzeln zu speichern und zu verarbeiten, wie es z.B. aus der Verarbeitung von Einzelblattpapieretiketten bekannt ist. Anstatt dessen ist der Herstellungsprozess dieser Selbstklebeetiketten derart gestaltet, dass die Selbstklebeetiketten am Ende ihrer Herstellung auf einer, als langes, schmales Band ausgebildeten Trägerfolie positioniert sind. Die mit den Selbstklebeetiketten versehene Trägerfolie wird aufgewickelt und anschließend als Etikettenrolle, welche einige Tausend z.B. 16000 Selbstklebeetiketten enthalten kann, einer geeigneten Etikettiermaschine zugeführt und in dieser verarbeitet.In order to simplify the processing of such self-adhesive labels, it is customary not to store and process them loosely and individually in the corresponding labeling machines, as described, for example, in US Pat. from the processing of cut sheet paper labels. Instead, the manufacturing process of these self-adhesive labels is designed so that the self-adhesive labels are positioned at the end of their production on a, designed as a long, narrow band carrier film. The backing sheet provided with the self-adhesive labels is wound up and subsequently as a label roll containing a few thousand e.g. 16000 self-adhesive labels, fed to a suitable labeling and processed in this.

In der Praxis hat es sich eingebürgert, die mit Selbstklebeetiketten versehene Trägerfolie als Etikettenband 13 zu bezeichnen.In practice, it has become common to refer to the self-adhesive labels provided with carrier tape as label tape 13.

Während der Verarbeitung der Selbstklebeetiketten wird das Etikettenband von einer Etikettenbandrolle abgewickelt und auf geeignete Weise durch die Etikettiermaschine geführt. In unmittelbarer Nähe zu dem zu etikettierenden Getränkebehälter oder Karton wird das Etikettenband über eine scharfe Kante - die so genannte Spendekante - geführt und dabei stark umgelenkt. Dabei kann das auf dem Etikettenband befindliche Etikett der starken Umlenkung des Etikettenbandes nicht folgen und löst sich somit von diesem ab, wodurch es für die nachfolgende Etikettierung zur Verfügung steht. Anschließend wird das Etikettenband 13, welches durch die Abgabe der Etiketten zum so genannten Trägerband 14 geworden ist, weiter durch die Etikettiermaschine geführt und durch eine Aufwickelvorrichtung handhabungsfreundlich zur Entsorgung aufgewickelt.During processing of the self-adhesive labels, the label tape is unwound from a label tape roll and passed through the labeling machine in a suitable manner. In the immediate vicinity of the container or carton to be labeled, the label tape is guided over a sharp edge - the so-called dispensing edge - and thereby strongly deflected. The label located on the label tape can not follow the strong deflection of the label tape and thus dissolves from this, making it available for subsequent labeling. Subsequently, the label tape 13, which by the delivery of the labels has become the so-called carrier tape 14, further guided by the labeling and wound by a take-up handling easy for disposal.

In der Praxis stellte sich immer wieder die Aufgabe, Behälter zu Etikettieren, welche schräge, also gegen die Senkrechte geneigte Fläche aufweisen, wobei es ebenfalls gewünscht ist, die Etiketten derart anzubringen, dass sich diese zumindest teilweise auf diesen schrägen Flächen befinden.In practice, again and again the task was to label containers, which have oblique, ie inclined to the vertical surface, wherein it is also desired to attach the labels such that they are at least partially on these inclined surfaces.

Bei der Verarbeitung von Selbstklebeetiketten ist es besonders vorteilhaft, diese in einer solchen Ausrichtung auf die zu etikettierende Fläche aufzubringen, in welcher Spendekante und zu etikettierende Fläche im Wesentlichen parallel zu einander verlaufen.In the processing of self-adhesive labels, it is particularly advantageous to apply them in such an orientation on the surface to be labeled, in which dispensing edge and surface to be labeled substantially parallel to each other.

Aus diesem Grunde wurden in der Vergangenheit Etikettierstationen vorgestellt, bei denen die gesamte Etikettierstation um eine waagerecht im Raum angeordnete Drehachse schwenkbar ist, wodurch eine parallele Ausrichtung der Spendekante zu der zu etikettierenden Fläche, dieses entspricht der so genannten Arbeitsposition, erreicht wird.For this reason, labeling stations have been presented in the past in which the entire labeling station is pivotable about a horizontal axis of rotation arranged in space, whereby a parallel orientation of the dispensing edge to the surface to be labeled, this corresponds to the so-called working position is reached.

Diese Vorgehensweise hat jedoch zur Folge, dass die üblicher Weise an hinteren Ende der Etikettierstation angeordneten Etikettenband- und Trägerbandrollen der Schwenkbewegung folgen, sich somit weiter vom Fuß- oder Hallenboden entfernen und eine Höhe erreichen, in welcher sie nicht oder nur sehr schwer zugänglich sind.This approach, however, has the consequence that the usual way arranged at the rear end of the labeling station Etikettenband- and carrier tape roles follow the pivoting movement, thus further away from the floor or hall floor and reach a height in which they are not or only very difficult to access.

Aufgrund des großen Gewichtes von Etikettenband- und Trägerbandrollen und des großen Abstandes der Aufnahmepositionen für diese Rollen vom Hallenboden ist es bei bekannten Ausgestaltungen nicht möglich, einen Wechsel z.B. der Etikettenbandrolle vorzunehmen, wenn sich die Etikettierstation in der Arbeitsposition befindet. Dieses hat zur Folge, dass eine in Arbeitsposition befindliche Etikettierstation bei jedem Wechsel von Etiketten- oder Trägerband(rolle) aus dieser Position herausgeschwenkt werden muss, damit die Aufnahmepositionen für das Bedienungspersonal erreichbar werden. Diese Vorgehensweise bedingt nicht nur eine Neuausrichtung der Etikettierstation, sondern ebenfalls eine Produktionsunterbrechung, was in der Praxis unerwünscht ist. Zusätzlich sind die bekannten Vorrichtungen mechanisch aufwändig und somit teuer.Due to the large weight of label tape and carrier tape rolls and the large distance of the receiving positions for these roles from the hall floor it is not possible in known embodiments, a change of e.g. make the label tape roll when the labeling station is in the working position. This has the consequence that a befindlicher in working position labeling station with each change of label or carrier tape (roll) must be swung out of this position, so that the receiving positions are accessible to the operator. This approach requires not only a reorientation of the labeling, but also a production interruption, which is undesirable in practice. In addition, the known devices are mechanically complex and therefore expensive.

Aufgabe und Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, die oben dargestellten Nachteile zu vermeiden. Dazu sieht die Erfindung die Ausbildung einer Etikettierstation gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruches 1 vor. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.The object and purpose of the present invention is to avoid the drawbacks presented above.

Dabei bilden alle beschriebenen und/oder bildlich dargestellten Merkmale für sich oder in beliebiger Kombination den Gegenstand der Erfindung, unabhängig von ihrer Zusammenfassung in den Ansprüchen oder deren Rückbeziehung. Gleichzeitig wird der Inhalt der Ansprüche zu einem Bestandteil der Beschreibung gemacht.Further developments, advantages and applications of the invention will become apparent from the following description of exemplary embodiments and the drawings. All described and / or illustrated features alone or in any combination form the subject matter of the invention, regardless of their combination in the claims or their dependency. At the same time, the content of the claims is made part of the description.

Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Anmeldung ist unter dem Begriff "Etikettierstation" die gesamte, an einer Behandlungs- oder Etikettierposition einer Etikettiermaschine angeordnete Vorrichtung zur Etikettierung der Behälter zu verstehen.In the context of the present application, the term "labeling station" is to be understood as the entire device for labeling the containers arranged at a treatment or labeling position of a labeling machine.

Diese Etikettierstation umfasst im Wesentlichen die nachfolgend aufgeführten Elemente, wobei diese bei bestimmten Ausgestaltungen auch mehrfach oder nicht angeordnet sein können: Antrieb, Etikettenspendekante, Etikettenbandrolle, Trägerbandrolle, Umlenkpfosten, Etikettenbandpuffer z.B. einen Schlaufenschacht, Transportvorrichtung 21 für die Etikettierstation usw.This labeling station essentially comprises the elements listed below, which in some embodiments may also be arranged several times or not: drive, label dispensing edge, label tape roll, carrier tape roll, deflection posts, label tape buffer e.g. a loop shaft, transport device 21 for the labeling station, etc.

Unter dem Begriff "Tandem-Etikettierstationen" sind solche Etikettierstationen zu verstehen, welche aus zwei im Wechsel arbeitenden Etikettierstationen bestehen. Dabei ist zunächst eine dieser Stationen im Einsatz, so dass an der zweiten Etikettierstation erforderliche Einstell-, Wartung-, Rüst- oder Nachlegearbeiten ausgeführt werden können. Ist nun z.B. der Etikettenvorrat der ersten Station verbraucht, so wird unterbrechungsfrei auf die vorbereitete zweite Station umgeschaltet. An der ersten Station können nun die erforderlichen Arbeiten ausgeführt werden. Diese Vorgehensweise führt dazu, dass ein unterbrechungsfreier Betrieb der Etikettiermaschine ermöglicht wird.The term "tandem labeling stations" is to be understood as meaning those labeling stations which consist of two alternately operating labeling stations. In this case, one of these stations is initially in use, so that at the second labeling station required adjustment, maintenance, set-up or refilling work can be performed. If, for example, the label stock of the first station is used up, the system switches to the prepared second station without interruption. At the first station Now the necessary work can be carried out. This procedure leads to an uninterrupted operation of the labeling machine is made possible.

Wie bereits dargestellt, führt die Etikettierung von schrägen Behälterflächen bei bekannten Etikettierstationen dazu, dass der Etikettierprozess bei jedem Wechsel von Etiketten- und/oder Trägerband unterbrochen werden muss, da die Aufnahmepositionen der Bandrollen für die Bedienpersonen nicht erreichbar sind.As already mentioned, the labeling of sloping container surfaces in known labeling stations means that the labeling process must be interrupted every time the label and / or carrier tape is changed, since the receiving positions of the tape rolls are not accessible to the operators.

Zur Lösung dieses Problems sieht die vorliegende Erfindung vor, eine Etikettierstation auszubilden, welche aus mindestens zwei Baugruppen besteht, wobei diese mindestens um eine Raumachse gegeneinander verstellbar sind.To solve this problem, the present invention provides to form a labeling station, which consists of at least two modules, which are at least one space axis against each other adjustable.

Dabei ist weiterhin vorgesehen, dass eine erste Baugruppe 16 zumindest die Etikettenspendekante 18 beinhalten, und die zweite Baugruppe 17 zumindest die Etikettenbandrolle 19 beinhaltet.It is further provided that a first assembly 16 include at least the label dispensing edge 18, and the second assembly 17 includes at least the label tape roll 19.

Durch diese Vorgehensweise wird es ermöglicht, die Etikettenbandrolle 19 derart anzuordnen, dass diese auch während der Etikettierung von schrägen Behälterflächen für das Bedienungspersonal zugänglich bleibt.By doing so, it is possible to arrange the label tape roll 19 such that it remains accessible to the operating personnel even during the labeling of inclined container surfaces.

Dadurch wird, insbesondere bei der Anwendung von sogenannten Tandem-Etikettierstationen, ein unterbrechungsfreier Betrieb von Etikettiermaschinen auch bei der Etikettierung von schrägen Behälterflächen ermöglicht.As a result, in particular when using so-called tandem labeling stations, an uninterrupted operation of labeling machines is also made possible in the labeling of oblique container surfaces.

Das in der Figur 2 dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt eine Ausgestaltung, bei welcher die erste Baugruppe 16 um eine an der zweiten Baugruppe 17 angeordnete Drehachse schwenkbar ist. Dadurch kann die Etikettenspendekante 18 auf einfache Weise parallel zu der zu etikettierenden Fläche ausgerichtet werden, wobei die der zweiten Baugruppe 17 zugeordneten Rollen für Etiketten- und Trägerband 19, 20 für das Bedienpersonal zugänglich bleiben.The embodiment shown in Figure 2 shows an embodiment in which the first assembly 16 is pivotable about an arranged on the second assembly 17 axis of rotation. As a result, the label dispensing edge 18 can be aligned in a simple manner parallel to the surface to be labeled, wherein the second assembly 17 associated roles for label and carrier tape 19, 20 remain accessible to the operator.

Ebenfalls ist vorgesehen, dass die erste Baugruppe 16 neben der Etikettenspendekante 18 einen Antrieb und einen Etikettenpuffer, vorzugsweise einen Schlaufenschacht, beinhaltet.It is also provided that the first assembly 16 next to the label dispensing edge 18 includes a drive and a label buffer, preferably a loop slot.

Die Figur 3 zeigt eine weitere Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung. Bei dieser ist vorgesehen, die erste Baugruppe 16 um mindestens eine Raumachse schwenkbar an einem Tragelement, beispielsweise einer Transportvorrichtung 21 anzuordnen. Betreffend der zweiten Baugruppe 17 ist vorgesehen, diese - wiederum um mindestens eine Raumachse schwenkbar - an der ersten Baugruppe 16 zu befestigen, wodurch es dem Bedienpersonal ermöglicht wird, die zweite Baugruppe 17 so zu positionieren, dass diese optimal zugänglich ist.FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the present invention. In this case, it is provided to arrange the first assembly 16 pivotably about at least one spatial axis on a support element, for example a transport device 21. Regarding the second assembly 17 is provided, this - turn order At least one spatial axis pivotally - to attach to the first assembly 16, which allows the operator to position the second assembly 17 so that it is optimally accessible.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist vorgesehen, zumindest die erste Baugruppe 16 höhenverstellbar auszubilden bzw. anzuordnen, wobei die Höhenverstellung relativ zur Transportvorrichtung 21 und/oder zur zweiten Baugruppe 17 erfolgen kann. Durch diese überaus vorteilhafte Vorgehensweise wird es ermöglicht, die Etikettenspendekante auf einfache Weise optimal auf die zu etikettierende Fläche auszurichten, ohne dass die Position der zweiten Baugruppe 17 verändert wird.In a further embodiment of the present invention, at least the first subassembly 16 can be designed or arranged to be height adjustable, wherein the height adjustment can take place relative to the transport device 21 and / or to the second subassembly 17. This highly advantageous procedure makes it possible to align the label dispensing edge in a simple manner optimally on the surface to be labeled, without the position of the second assembly 17 being changed.

Die Anordnung der zur Verstellung der Baugruppen vorgesehenen Drehachsen kann unter beliebigen Winkellagen im Raum erfolgen. Dabei hat es sich als besonders vorteilhaft herausgestellt, die Drehachse der ersten Baugruppe waagerecht oder nahezu waagerecht anzuordnen.The arrangement of the provided for adjusting the modules rotation axes can be done under any angular positions in space. It has been found to be particularly advantageous to arrange the axis of rotation of the first assembly horizontally or almost horizontally.

Für die Ausbildung von erfindungsgemäßen Tandem-Etikettierstationen ist vorgesehen, jede einzelne dieser Stationen derart zu gestalten, dass diese unabhängig voneinander bewegbar sind.For the formation of tandem labeling stations according to the invention, it is provided to design each individual one of these stations in such a way that they can be moved independently of one another.
