摘要： A tray packing-shrink wrapping machine for packaging articles along a conveyor is disclosed. The machine is operable in a dual lane mode and a single lane mode. In both modes a collation section receives articles from an infeed section and arranges the articles into rows and columns to create batches of articles. In dual lane mode a lane divider structure separates each batch into smaller microbatches. Separate trays and sheets of heat shrinkable film are simultaneously formed around the microbatches. An in-line stacker is selectively operable in single lane or dual lane modes to stack a packed tray on top of the preceding packed tray. The machine is quickly converted to single lane mode by removing the lane divider structure and center trayforming structures, removing the center stacker elements and retracting knives in the blank feeding and film wrapping devices. A method for converting a dual lane machine to a single lane machine is also disclosed.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于沿输送机包装物品的托盘包装收缩包装机。 该机器可在双通道模式和单通道模式下操作。 在两种模式下，归类部分从进料部分接收物品，并将物品排列成行和列以创建批次的物品。 在双通道模式下，通道分隔器结构将每个批次分成更小的微型。 在微粒周围同时形成分离的托盘和热收缩膜片。 在线堆叠器可选择性地以单通道或双通道模式操作，以将填充的托盘堆叠在先前的包装托盘的顶部上。 通过拆除车道分隔结构和中心托盘成型结构，移除中空堆垛机元件并在坯料进给和胶片包装装置中缩回刀具，将机器快速转换为单车道模式。 还公开了一种将双通道机器转换为单通道机器的方法。
