摘要:
A device for forming a container by folding a cardboard sheet having a lid and notably a tab. The forming device comprising a conveyor driving said cardboard sheet in a direction of travel and a device for folding over said lid. The folding-over device comprises a pressing surface for pressing on said lid, and the pressing surface is configured to move from an initial position toward a deployed position of folding said lid, and vice versa. The said pressing surface is mobile in said direction of travel, and comprises an endless belt motorized in said direction of travel.

A method and apparatus are shown for securing a top for a cardboard carton where the carton has a bottom wall and integral sidewalls, an initially open interior and initially open top flaps with outwardly extending ears. The top flaps are folded to a carton closing position which closes off the initially open interior of the cardboard carton. The ears are also folded to a position in contact with the sidewalls of the carton. A set of punches are aligned with the folded ears of the carton and are actuated to force a first layer of cardboard from a respective top flap through an underlying region of the carton sidewall. A set of platens are located so as to underlie and reinforce the sidewalls of the carton as the punching operation takes place.

A machine for intended use in feeding and completing a partially formed carton is disclosed. In one embodiment, the machine includes an overhead conveyor with selectively actuated, depending lugs that engage and convey the carton in a first direction while a first flap on a lid is folded and sealed. A takeaway conveyor includes selectively actuated, upstanding lugs that convey the carton in a second direction generally perpendicular to the first direction while second and third flaps are folded and sealed. The lugs on each conveyor may be closely spaced or overlapping to allow for selective actuation at a desired instant without the need for timing the corresponding chain or the carton feed to the machine. A diverter located at a transition between the forward and return runs of the overhead and takeaway conveyors actuates the lugs in a controlled fashion. Related methods of feeding and forming cartons are also disclosed.
摘要:
A machine for folding the leading and trailing flaps of cartons being advanced one by one by a chain along a predetermined path. The leading flaps are folded by a wheel with a number of retarders spaced about the periphery of the wheel. The wheel turns to bring a retarder into intersecting relation with the path of each carton ahead of the leading flap. When in intersecting relation with the path, the retarder moves in the flow direction of the cartons but at a slower speed. The leading flap thus catches up with the retarder and is engaged by the latter. Due to the difference in speed, the carton passes by the retarder, and the leading flap is folded. The wheel is rotated in timed relation with the advance of the cartons by a drive directly connected to the drive for a cutter rotor which is rotated in timed relation with the advance of the cartons. The trailing flaps of the cartons are folded by a folding rotor which is driven in timed relation with the advance of the cartons by the same drive chain which advances the cartons.

The method includes defining a plurality of fold lines that divide the blank into a plurality of sidewall panels, forming at least one platform panel on a bottom end of the plurality of sidewall panels, and forming at least one foot panel on a first side edge of the plurality of sidewall panels near the bottom end, the at least one foot panel being configured to at least partially support the at least one platform panel once the blank is folded into an assembled package.

The method includes first folding a plurality of sidewall panels to form sidewalls for an assembled package, a tear-off section being defined by at least a portion a lower end of at least some of the sidewalls, second folding one or more platform panels to form a supportive platform near the lower end of the sidewalls, and third folding at least one foot panel under the supportive platform to at least partially support the supportive platform of the assembled package.

A device for compressing packaging sleeves includes at least two movably supported pressure bars for compressing the packaging sleeve, and at least one drive for moving the pressure bars. The pressure bars are supported in such a way that between the pressure bars a gap is created, the longitudinal direction of which corresponds to a transport direction of the packaging sleeve. The pressure bars are supported in such a way that the distance between the pressure bars is variable. The pressure bars are supported in such a way that the pressure bars are movable in the longitudinal direction of the gap. Also described is a corresponding method for compressing packaging sleeves.

A box forming carousel apparatus including a frame, a rotating carton retainer, a first side carton folding assembly, a second side carton folding assembly and an axle. The frame has a bottom, and first and second sides. The rotating carton retainer is rotatably coupled to the frame and has a plurality of slot assemblies radially spaced apart, each slot assembly having a leading wall, a following wall and a base wall. Each slot assembly structurally configured to retain a box therein. The first side carton folding assembly is structurally configured to fold a plurality of flaps of the box on a first side thereof. The second side carton folding assembly is structurally configured to fold a plurality of flaps of the box on a second side thereof. The axle extends between the first side and the second side of the frame spaced apart from the bottom of the frame.
