[0004] TECHNICAL SECTOR
[0006] The present invention concerns in a first aspect with a method for the formation of boxes from flat sheets of laminar material. In a second aspect it is related to a machine for the formation of boxes from flat sheets of laminar material.
[0008] Throughout this description, the term "sheet material" is used to designate corrugated cardboard sheet, corrugated plastic sheet, compact cardboard sheet, compact plastic sheet, and the like.
[0010] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0012] Documents ES8606124A1, ES2007712A6 and ES2068055A1 disclose machines for forming boxes from flat sheets of laminar material. Said machines convey, by means of a conveyor, said plates according to a transport direction from an initial position to an entrance plane of a molding cavity, which forms an integral part of a forming mold. Once the plate is located in the entry plane, a core moves linearly according to a direction perpendicular to the entry plane, from an extracted position outside the molding cavity, to a final position causing the introduction of the core into the cavity. of molding during its movement. During the introduction of the plate into the molding cavity pushed by the male, some walls and / or flaps of the box are bent, by means of passive wall benders integrated in the forming mold around the molding cavity, producing the formation from the bottom of the box.
[0014] Document EP2353854A1 discloses a corner forming assembly for a box forming machine. The box forming machine includes four corner forming assemblies, which are symmetrically configured and arranged to delimit a mold cavity that cooperates with a core moved in a linear insertion direction to fold the cardboard sheet and form the box. Each corner former assembly comprises a main support configured to be attached to a frame of the machine and a plurality of benders. arranged to interact with different parts of a carton by the action of the core in cooperation with the four corner-forming assemblies.
[0016] Each corner forming assembly comprises a passive wall bender in which a movable support stop and a moveable backstop are installed. When the male reaches its maximum insertion position in the molding cavity, the box is supported on the four support stops corresponding with the forming assemblies.
[0018] The support stop is connected to a fluid dynamic cylinder. Activation of the fluid dynamic cylinder linearly moves the support stop between an extended position, in which the support stop supports the base of the box within the mold cavity during a box-forming operations, and a retracted position, in which allows the formed box to exit the mold cavity. The position of the support stop in a direction parallel to the direction of movement of the male can be adjusted to adapt it to the height of the box to be formed.
[0020] Also in document EP2353854A1, at a higher level with respect to the support stop there is positioned a non-return member fixed on a rocker configured in such a way that it can pivot with respect to an axis fixed to the passive wall bend, between a retracted position , in which the non-return member allows the passage of the cardboard sheet when it is pushed by the core into the molding cavity, and an extended position, in which the non-return member prevents the box from freshly formed rises with the return movement of the male. The position of the non-return member with respect to the rocker can be adjusted in the direction of movement of the male by means of screws inserted through an elongated hole for the formation of boxes of different heights. A compression spring is disposed between a rear stop fixed to the passive wall bender and the rocker. The compression spring is limited in its extended position by a front stop. The non-return stop has a ramp in its upper part which is pushed by the plate in its insertion movement into the molding cavity that forces the rocker to pivot against the elastic force of the spring. With the continued movement of insertion of the core, the side walls of the box slide down said ramp. When the iron has passed the non-return stop, the rocker returns to the extended position, pushed by the spring.
[0022] Document ES2068055A1 describes an improved machine for forming boxes, where the male (mandrel) introduces the cardboard into a mold with a molding cavity and the flaps that form the sides of the box begin to fold by sliding by the ramps of the slips forming the bottom of the box. The mold comprises four slides, each of which has a tilting plate installed on which a first stop closer to the entrance of boxes in the molding cavity and a second stop further away from the entrance of boxes in the cavity are mounted. molding. The plate has a groove to adjust the position of the stops for the formation of different box sizes.
[0024] Each tilting plate is permanently inserted into the molding cavity by the action of a respective expansion spring. The first stops have an inclined plane where the box formed rests, retaining it until it is displaced by pushing the box formed in the next cycle of the machine. The first stop obstructs the penetration of the cardboard, opposing some resistance to the advance of the male to ensure the correct folding of the box. Thus, the side wall of the box slides over the first stop overcoming the resistance presented by the expansion spring on the tilting plate. The second stop acts as a stop against the bottom of the box. With the next cycle of the machine, the next box pushes the box from the previous cycle.
[0026] The box-forming machine of document ES2068055A1, similarly to that described in document EP2353854A1, the mold comprises four slides, each of which has a tilting plate installed on which a first stop is mounted closer to the entrance of boxes in the mold cavity and a second stop further away from the box entrance into the mold cavity. Each tilting plate is permanently inserted into the molding cavity by the action of a respective spring. During the continued introduction of the box by the male, the box passes first tilting stops articulated in the passive benders and located at a depth with respect to the entrance plane of the molding cavity, which fold the side walls of the box. When the male in its continuous introduction reaches its position of maximum introduction the box is retained for a few seconds stops.
[0028] In document ES2068055A1 the box from this cycle and the boxes from previous cycles are being held in a stacked manner one after the other on floating plates that retain the walls of the box by the push of a spring. When the box of the next machine formation cycle pushes the first stops out of the mold cavity, the box of the previous cycle is released by the second stop, since the first and second stops swing around the same axis, and the box of the next cycle pushes the box of the previous cycle, placing the box of the next cycle in the second stops in the maximum insertion position of the male, passing the box from the previous cycle to be supported by the floating plates.
[0030] Documents ES2007712A6, ES1192858U and ES2580903B1 show active wall benders installed in a mold for mounting P84 format boxes. The active wall bender comprises a shaft of rotation perpendicular to the direction of movement of the tap moved by an actuator between a rest position and a clamping position, and a bending member with a clamping plug at its two ends. The clamping blocks are attached to the turning shaft and fit the inside shape of the reinforcing corners of the box. In the clamping position, the folding member folds the second reinforcing flaps against the respective side walls and presses against a supporting wall. On the other hand, the clamping blocks fold the corner reinforcement flaps of the second reinforcement flaps to form the column-like box corner reinforcements.
[0032] In the forming machines of the state of the art, when the active wall benders are in their clamping position, the bottom of the box is supported on support stops.
[0034] However, a drawback of the forming machines of the state of the art resides in that the box is supported by its side walls by friction when the male has reached its position of maximum introduction and has placed the box in that position, prior to the actuation of the active benders.
[0036] The positioning and / or stabilization of the box in a work plane required by friction prior to the actuation of the active benders against its side walls causes that the subsequent operations of forming the box are not carried out correctly. Thus, the number of well-mounted boxes decreases and the number of badly mounted or not mounted boxes increases unacceptably.
[0038] This stabilization of the box by friction inside the mold cavity causes the bottom of the box to be tilted / flipped for an unacceptable number of machine cycles, which results in having an unreliable or robust machine. That is, one corner of the bottom of the box is deeper than another corner of the bottom of the box. This tilting / tilting of the bottom of the box within the mold cavity is further vitiated after removing the core from the mold cavity and / or during actuation of the active benders.
[0040] In addition, the inclination / turning of the box before the activation of the active wall benders causes an incorrect bending of the flaps and / or walls by the active wall benders. As a consequence, the upper edges of the upper box opening are sloped along with the stacking projections of the boxes, leading to poor subsequent stacking of the boxes. Thus the boxes can be unusable despite their formation, and / or poorly formed boxes can cause the stack of boxes full of product to tip over during transport.
[0042] EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
[0044] To overcome the drawbacks set forth in the background of the invention, the present invention presents, according to a first aspect, a method for the formation of boxes from flat sheets of laminar material. This method comprises the stages of:
[0046] • individually transporting said plates according to a transport direction from an initial position to an entrance plane of a molding cavity, the molding cavity forming an integral part of a forming mold;
[0048] • moving a core linearly according to a Z direction perpendicular to the entry plane from an extracted position outside the mold cavity to a final position causing the core to be introduced into the mold cavity during its movement;
[0050] • bending some walls and / or flaps of the box, by means of passive benders integrated in the forming mold around the molding cavity, during the insertion of a plate into the forming mold pushed by the male, producing the formation of the bottom of the box;
[0052] • stop the bottom of the box inside the molding cavity on a working plane parallel to the entry plane, supporting the bottom of the box on movable stops between an active position located inside the mold cavity and a passive position located outside the mold cavity;
[0054] • move the male linearly from its final position to its initial position; Y
[0055] • actuate active benders, integrated in the forming mold around the molding cavity, from their initial position located outside the molding cavity, and a final position causing the walls and / or flaps of the box to bend.
[0057] Likewise, said method further comprises the step of stopping the bottom of the box inside the molding cavity in an auxiliary work plane parallel to the plane of molding entrance, being the depth of the auxiliary work plane with respect to the entrance plane less than that of the work plane, supporting the bottom of the box on some auxiliary movable stops between an active position located inside the molding cavity and a position passive located outside the molding cavity.
[0059] Furthermore, in the method the active benders are in their initial position, the bottom of the box is stopped in the auxiliary work plane by the auxiliary stops.
[0061] Likewise, in the method when the active benders are in their final position, the bottom of the box is stopped in the work plane by the stops.
[0063] Thus, the box is stabilized and with adequate flatness inside the molding cavity to carry out the operations related to the formation of the box, which allows to obtain correctly formed boxes a greater number of machine formation cycles, obtaining thus a reliable and robust machine.
[0065] Similarly, in the method, the bottom of the box moves in the molding cavity according to the Z direction in three different stages:
[0067] • in a first stage, it performs a first linear movement due to the thrust of the male from the input plane to the auxiliary work plane, and stops in said auxiliary work plane with the bottom of the box formed;
[0069] • in a second stage, it performs a second linear movement from the auxiliary work plane to the work plane, and stops on said work plane until the walls and flaps of the box are bent; Y
[0071] • in a third stage, where the bottom of the box makes a third linear movement from the work plane away from the entrance plane, once the walls and flaps of the box are bent.
[0073] In the first working plane, the plate has undergone bending operations using passive benders. In the auxiliary work plane, the box with some bending operations has received subsequent bending operations for its parts. Thus in the auxiliary work plane, all the walls and flaps of the box are bent. The third movement starts once the walls and flaps of the box are folded. The third movement can therefore coincide with a stage of expulsion from the mold cavity where the box does not receive additional bending operations.
[0075] Preferably, the method further comprises the step of driving active second benders integrated in the forming mold around the cavity of molding, from their initial position located outside the molding cavity, and a final position causing the bending of the walls and / or flaps of the box, said second active bends being positioned in their final positions when the bottom of the box is stopped in the working plan. In some illustrative examples, the second active benders can cause the bending of, for example: two facing side walls by tilting them, of at least two flaps attached to two facing side walls by rotating them on said walls, thus doubling the thickness of said walls, of reinforcement that reinforce the corners of the boxes, etc.
[0077] Preferably, the second benders cause the bending of reinforcing tabs that reinforce the corners of the boxes. Said reinforcing flaps can be simple fins attached to the corners of the boxes, or reinforcing fins composed of two or three triangular column shaped portions located at the corners of the box.
[0079] Preferably, the core is not positioned in its final position when the active benders are in their final position. That is, the core is not in the position of maximum insertion in the mold cavity. Thus, the male does not interfere with the active benders.
[0081] Additionally, the method further comprises the step of limiting the movement of the box in the Z direction in the extraction direction of the core, when the bottom of the box is supported on the auxiliary stops, by means of third stops. Said movement in the Z direction can be produced both by the extraction of the core from the mold cavity and by the actuation of the first and / or second active benders from their final position to their initial position located outside the mold cavity. The movement of the box in the extraction direction may or may not occur, but if this movement occurs it is limited, ensuring that the box is stabilized and flat within the molding cavity for the correct operation of the box formation operations. .
[0083] Complementarily, the method further comprises the step of inclining at least two mutually facing side walls of the box, from a position perpendicular to the bottom of the box, to an inclined position with a convergent inclination towards the inside of the box. Said inclination is usually between 2 and 15 degrees.
[0084] In one option, the tilt stage occurs with the box bottom stopped on the auxiliary work plane, and the second active benders reach their final position after the tilt stage.
[0086] In an alternative option, the tilt stage occurs with the bottom of the box stopped on the work plane, and the second active benders reach their final position after the tilt stage.
[0088] Optionally, in the third linear movement the box is individually ejected from the mold cavity by an active ejector device. This stage can be implemented by means of active ejector devices.
[0090] In order to overcome the drawbacks set forth in the background of the invention, the present invention presents, according to a second aspect, a machine for the formation of boxes from flat sheets of laminar material.
[0092] Said machine comprises a plate conveyor configured to convey plates according to a conveying direction from an initial position to an entry plane of a molding cavity. The mold cavity is an integral part of a former mold.
[0094] Likewise, said machine comprises a core movable linearly in a Z direction perpendicular to the input plane, from an extracted position located outside the molding cavity, to a final position causing the introduction of the core into the molding cavity during its movement.
[0096] Likewise, the machine comprises passive benders integrated in the forming mold around the molding cavity, which define curved or inclined slip surfaces configured to bend walls and / or flaps of the box during the insertion of a plate into the mold. trainer pushed by the male.
[0098] Furthermore, the machine comprises movable stops between an active position located inside the cavity and a passive position located outside the molding cavity, arranged to stop the bottom of the box inside the molding cavity in a working plane parallel to the plane. input, supporting the bottom of the box on said stops.
[0100] The machine also includes active benders integrated into the forming mold around the molding cavity, configured to be operated from its initial position located outside the molding cavity, and a final position causing bending of walls and / or flaps of the box.
[0102] Also, the machine comprises auxiliary stops movable between an extended position located within the mold cavity and a retracted position located outside the mold cavity. The auxiliary stops are arranged to stop the bottom of the box inside the molding cavity in an auxiliary work plane parallel to the molding entrance plane, the depth of the auxiliary work plane with respect to the entrance plane being less than that of the plane working position, the bottom of the box is stopped by supporting the bottom of the box on said auxiliary stops.
[0104] Likewise, in the machine the auxiliary stops stop the bottom of the box on the auxiliary work plane when the active benders are in their initial position, while the stops stop the bottom of the box on the work plane when the active benders are in its final position.
[0106] Thus, the box is stabilized and with adequate flatness inside the molding cavity to carry out the operations related to the formation of the box, which allows to obtain correctly formed boxes a greater number of machine formation cycles, obtaining thus a reliable and robust machine.
[0108] Thus, the stops and auxiliary stops are configured so that the bottom of the box moves in the molding cavity according to the Z direction in three different stages:
[0109] • in a first stage, it performs a first linear movement due to the thrust of the male from the input plane to the auxiliary work plane, and stops in said auxiliary work plane with the bottom of the box formed;
[0111] • in a second stage, it performs a second linear movement from the auxiliary work plane to the work plane, and stops on said work plane until the walls and flaps of the box are bent; Y
[0113] • in a third stage, where the bottom of the box makes a third linear movement from the work plane away from the entrance plane, once the walls and flaps of the box are bent.
[0115] In the first working plane, the plate has undergone bending operations using passive benders. In the auxiliary work plane, the box with some bending operations has received subsequent bending operations for its parts. Thus in the auxiliary work plane, all the walls and flaps of the box are bent. The third movement starts once the walls and flaps of the box are bent. The third movement can therefore coincide with a stage of expulsion from the mold cavity where the box does not receive additional bending operations.
[0117] Preferably, the machine further comprises active second benders integrated into the forming mold around the molding cavity, operable from its initial position located outside the molding cavity, and a final position causing the folding of walls and / or flaps of the box, said second active bends being positionable in their final positions when the bottom of the box is stopped on the work plane.
[0119] In some illustrative examples, the second active benders can cause the bending of, for example: two facing side walls by tilting them, of at least two flaps attached to two facing side walls by rotating them on said walls thus doubling the thickness of said walls, of flaps of reinforcement that reinforce the corners of the boxes.
[0121] Preferably, the second benders cause bending of reinforcing fins at the corners of the boxes. Said reinforcing flaps can be simple fins attached to the corners of the boxes, or reinforcing fins composed of two or three triangular column shaped portions located at the corners of the box.
[0123] Complementarily, the machine also comprises third stops, positioned in a position closer to the entrance plane of the forming mold than the auxiliary stops, and configured to limit the movement of the box in the Z direction in the extraction direction of the male when the bottom of the box is supported by the auxiliary stops. Thus, the distance between the auxiliary stops and the third stops corresponds to the height of the box to be formed.
[0125] Said movement in the Z direction can be produced both by the extraction of the core from the mold cavity and by the actuation of the first and / or second active benders from their final position to their initial position located outside the mold cavity. The movement of the box in the extraction direction may or may not occur, but if this movement occurs it is limited, ensuring that the box is stabilized and flat within the molding cavity for the correct operation of the box formation operations. .
[0127] Additionally, the third stops are an integral part of an active ejector device. Thus, each active ejector device further comprises an ejector actuator provided with a fixed part supported on the forming mold and a movable part where it is supports one of said third stops. This compact configuration allows the formation of smaller box bottom sizes, for the operations of limiting the movement of the box in the Z direction and the ejection operation.
[0129] Complementarily, in the machine, the forming mold comprises two parallel mold bridges separated by an adjustable distance. Each mold bridge supports one of said active benders.
[0131] Each active bender comprises a flange adjoining the perimeter of the molding cavity and facing said molding cavity. The nose piece may correspond to a plane that is an integral part of the mold bridge.
[0133] Furthermore, each active bender comprises a bender member, integrally attached to a bender shaft perpendicular to the Z direction and adjacent to the molding cavity.
[0134] The bending member is pivotable between the initial position located outside the molding cavity, and a final position that remains inside the molding cavity facing a clamping plane to the nose by pressing a flap of the wall of the box folded on itself. between the nose piece and the clamping plane in final position. The bender shaft is closer to the initial position of the core than it is bearing.
[0135] Each active bender comprises a bender member actuator configured to cause movement of the bender member between the start and end positions.
[0137] Additionally, the forming mold of the machine comprises, supported directly or indirectly on each mold bridge, an auxiliary active bender for tilting a wall of the box.
[0139] Each auxiliary active bender comprises an auxiliary nosepiece, tiltable around a nosepiece shaft parallel to the bender shaft, said auxiliary nosepiece being able to rotate in use between an initial position in which the auxiliary nosepiece is outside the molding cavity, and a final position in which the auxiliary nose piece is inclined and partially inside the molding cavity determining the inclination of a side wall of the box. The auxiliary nosepiece is comprised between the nosepiece shaft and the bender shaft.
[0141] Also, each auxiliary active bender comprises at least one drive arm with one end remote from the nose shaft. The at least one drive arm is integrally connected to the auxiliary nose piece, the auxiliary nose piece and the drive arm being on opposite sides of the nose nose shaft.
[0142] Likewise, each auxiliary active bender comprises a dolly actuator supported on the forming mold and connected to one end of the at least one drive arm configured to rotate the drive arm around the dolly shaft.
[0144] Also, in each auxiliary active bender, the bender member is configured so that the clamp plane is opposite and parallel to the auxiliary nose when the bending member and auxiliary nose are both in their final positions.
[0146] Complementarily, in the machine, the mold bridge includes at least one bridge guide, parallel to the Z direction. The at least one bridge guide is connected to the nose shaft.
[0148] Likewise, in the machine, the auxiliary nosepiece includes at least one nosepiece guide, parallel to the Z direction when the auxiliary nosepiece is in the initial position, the nosepiece guide being connected to the nosepiece shaft.
[0150] Thus, the spacing of the nose cone with respect to the bender tree is modifiable along said bridge guides and nose guide, for the adaptation of the machine to the formation of inclined boxes of different heights, or boxes of different inclinations.
[0152] Preferably, in the forming mold of the machine, two parallel mold bridges are separated by an adjustable distance by means of a first adjusting device. Two main slideable supports are supported on each mold bridge along their respective mold bridge. Thus, the passive wall benders are supported on said main supports. Also, in the former mold two second adjusting devices separate each pair of passive wall benders supported on the same mold bridge a second adjustable distance along each mold bridge. The first adjustable distance is perpendicular to the first adjustable distance. Thus, the molding cavity is configured to house inside a box with a rectangular bottom of different sizes. In the forming mold, an auxiliary stop is supported directly or indirectly on each of the four main supports, so that the bottom of the box is stabilized by said auxiliary stops for different sizes of the rectangular bottom of the box.
[0154] In addition to the previous paragraph, the machine's forming mold comprises four active ejector devices, each of them supported directly or indirectly on a main support, so that the distance between said ejector devices assets is adjustable according to the adjustable distance and the second adjustable distance, to allow to eject boxes with different sizes of box bottom.

[0207] DETAILED EXHIBITION OF MODES OF REALIZATION / EXAMPLES
[0209] According to a first aspect, the present invention presents a method for the formation of boxes from flat sheets (110) of laminar material. Said method is suitable to be implemented in the box (90) forming machine (200) of Fig. 1 and described in the second aspect of the invention.
[0211] According to a first embodiment of the present method, in Figs. 1 and 2 it is observed that the method comprises step a) of individually transporting said plates (110) according to a transport direction (T) from an initial position to an entry plane (PE) of a molding cavity (2), which forms an integral part of a forming mold (100). In Figs. 1, 2 and 4 the plates (110) are transported from a plate loader (150) to the forming area, where the plate (110) is located between a core (120) and a forming mold (100) in said entrance plane (PE) to the molding cavity (2).
[0213] The method further comprises the step b) of moving a core (120) linearly according to a Z direction perpendicular to the entrance plane (PE) from an extracted position located outside the molding cavity (2) to a final position causing the introduction of the male (120) in the mold cavity (2) during its movement. Figs. 4, 11, 13 and 14 show the extracted position of the core (120), while Fig. 12 shows the final position of the core (120), that is, its position of maximum insertion in the molding cavity (2).
[0215] Likewise, the method comprises step c) of bending the walls and / or flaps of the box (90), by means of passive benders (20) integrated in the forming mold (100) around the molding cavity (2), during the insertion of a plate (110) inside the forming mold (100) pushed by the male (120), producing the formation of the bottom (94) of the box (90). Said stage c) begins in Fig. 11 and ends in Fig. 12 with the formation of the bottom (94) of the box (90).
[0217] Likewise, Fig. 12 shows that the method comprises step g) of stopping the bottom (94) of the box (90) inside the molding cavity (2) in an auxiliary work plane (P2) parallel to the plane molding inlet (1). The depth of the auxiliary work plane (P2) with respect to the input plane (PE) is less than that of another work plane (P1) that will be explained later. In Fig. 12 it is illustrated that the stopping of stage g) is carried out by supporting the bottom (94) of the box (90) on auxiliary stops (4) movable between an active position located inside the molding cavity (2 ) and a passive position located outside the molding cavity (2).
[0219] In Fig. 12 the bottom of the box (90) is stopped in the auxiliary work plane (P2) by the auxiliary stops (4) when the active benders (50) are in their initial position.
[0221] Whereby between Figs. 11 and 12 the bottom (94) of the box (90) has moved in the molding cavity (2) according to the Z direction in a first linear movement by the thrust of the male (120) from the entrance plane (PE) to the work plane auxiliary (P2), stopping in said auxiliary work plane (P2) with the bottom (94) of the box (90) formed.
[0223] When the plate (110) has stopped in the auxiliary work plane (P2), step i) of limiting the movement of the box (90) in the Z direction in the extraction direction of the male (120) occurs when the The bottom of the box is supported on the auxiliary stops (4) by means of third stops (14). Fig. 12 shows this situation.
[0224] Once stage i) of limiting the movement of the box (90) has taken place, stage e) of moving the male (120) linearly from its final position to its initial position occurs. The male (120) passes from its final position of Fig. 12 to its initial position of Fig. 13.
[0226] With the male (120) moving towards or located outside the molding cavity (2), the step f) of actuating active benders (50), integrated in the forming mold (100) around the molding cavity ( 2), from its initial position located outside the molding cavity (2), and a final position causing the walls and / or flaps of the box (90) to fold. Fig. 12 shows the core (120) in its final position of maximum insertion and the active bender (50) in its initial position, while Fig. 13 shows the core in its extracted position and the active bender (50) in your final position.
[0228] In Fig. 13 stage d) of stopping the bottom of the box (90) inside the molding cavity (2) is shown in a work plane (P1) parallel to the entrance plane (PE), supporting the bottom (94) of the box (90) on stops (83) movable between an active position located inside the mold cavity (2) and a passive position located outside the mold cavity (2).
[0230] In Fig. 13 it is shown that when the active benders (50) are in their final position the bottom of the box (90) is stopped in a working plane (P1) by the stops (83).
[0232] When the box (90) of Fig. 13 is stopped by the stops (83), the step h) of activating second active benders (22) integrated in the forming mold (100) around the molding cavity ( 2), from its initial position located outside the molding cavity (2), and a final position causing the walls and / or flaps of the box (90) to fold. Said second active bends (22) are positioned in their final positions when the bottom (94) of the box (90) is stopped at the work plane (P1).
[0233] Thus, the active benders (50) and the second active benders (22) reach their final position with the bottom of the box (90) stopped at the work plane (P1). In this first embodiment, in Figs. 9, 10 and 15 to 18, the active benders (50) bend side walls (97) and reinforcing flaps (98, 99), while the second active benders (22) bend reinforcement fins (101) that reinforce the corners of the boxes (90).
[0235] With what between Figs. 12 and 13 the bottom (94) of the box (90) moves in the molding cavity (2) according to the Z direction according to a second linear movement from the auxiliary work plane (P2) to the work plane (P1) , and stops at said work plane (P1) until the walls and flaps of the box (90) are bent and the box (90) is formed.
[0237] After this, in Fig. 14 it is observed that the box (90) is expelled individually from the molding cavity (2) by means of an active ejector device (10). Said expulsion is executed according to a third linear movement, where the bottom (94) of the box (90) performs a third linear movement from the work plane (P1) away from the entrance plane (PE), once the walls and box flaps (90) are folded.
[0239] According to a second embodiment of the present method, it incorporates all the characteristics / steps of the first embodiment of the present method and also:
[0241] • referring to Figs. 25 and 26, when the plate (110) has stopped in the auxiliary work plane (P2), step j) occurs of tilting at least two side walls (97) of the box (90) facing each other, from a position perpendicular to the bottom (94) of the box (90), to an inclined position with a convergent inclination towards the interior of the box (90).
[0242] • tilt stage j) occurs with the bottom (94) of the box (90) stopped at the work plane (P1), and
[0243] • the second active benders (22) of stage h) reach their final position after tilting stage j).
[0245] In Figs. 27-30 shows the described inclination (A1, A2) of the two opposite walls (97) of the box (90). In the box of Figs. 27 and 28 the inclination (A1) of both side walls (97) is different from the inclination (A2) of both side walls (97) of the box (90) of Figs. 29 and 30 (A2).
[0247] Likewise, the height (H1) of the box (90) of Figs. 27 and 28 is less than the height (H2) of the box (90) of Figs. 29 and 30.
[0248] According to a second aspect, the present invention presents a machine (200) for the formation of boxes from flat plates (110) of laminar material. Said machine (200) can implement the method described in the first aspect of the invention.
[0250] Figs. 1 to 14 show a first embodiment of the machine (200) of the present invention. Said machine (200) comprises a plate conveyor (130) configured to transport plates (110) according to a transport direction (T) from an initial position to an entrance plane (PE) of a rectangular parallelepiped molding cavity (2) , which is an integral part of a forming mold (100). In Figs. 1, 2 and 4 the conveyor (130) transports the plates (110) according to the horizontal transport direction (T) to the ground from a plate loader (150) to the forming area, where the plate (110) is located between a male (120) and a forming mold (100) in said entry plane (PE) to the molding cavity (2). A glue bridge (140) provided with a plurality of glue injectors (140) in use deposits beads of hot glue on the plate (110).
[0252] Figs. 1, 2, 4, and 11 to 14 show that said machine (200) further comprises a male (120) movable linearly in a Z direction corresponding to the vertical to the ground. Said Z direction is perpendicular to the entry plane (PE), which is horizontal to the ground. The movement of the core (120) is from an extracted position outside the mold cavity (2) to a final position causing the introduction of the core (120) into the mold cavity (2) during its vertical movement.
[0254] With reference to Figs. 3-8 and 11-14, the machine (200) comprises four passive benders (20) integrated into the forming mold (100) around the molding cavity (2), defining curved slip surfaces (21) configured to bend walls and / or flaps of the box (90) during the insertion of a plate (110) into the forming mold (100) pushed by the male (120). The slip surfaces (21) have a first section (21a) horizontal to the ground, a second curved section (21b), and a third section vertical to the ground.
[0256] In Figs. 3, 6, 8, and 11 to 14 it is observed that the machine (200) comprises two stops (83) movable between an active position located inside the molding cavity (2) and a passive position located outside the molding cavity (2) arranged to stop the bottom of the box (90) inside the molding cavity (2) on a working plane (P1) horizontal to the ground. The two stops (83) stop the bottom of the box (90) supporting the bottom (94) of the box (90) on them. Said stops (83) are supported in said forming mold (100) and configured to receive portions of the bottom (94) next to two opposite walls (96) of a rectangular bottom box (90) (94).
[0258] In Figs. 7, 8 and 11 it can be seen that said stops (83) form an integral part of a stop assembly (80). Said stop assembly (80) comprises a stop support (81) fixed to a structural point of the forming mold (100) by means of screws. The stop support (81) has two support guides (81b) parallel to the Z direction. Two fixing and release elements (85), materialized in respective screws, allow the adjustment of an auxiliary support (84) with respect to the stop support ( 81). On the auxiliary support (84) is mounted a fluid dynamic cylinder (82) whose rod is connected to the stop (83) in a guided manner by means of a linear slide (87). An adjustment spindle (86) supported on the stop support (81) and fixed to the auxiliary support (84) makes it possible, once the fixing and release elements (85) have been released, to precisely regulate the position of the stop (83) with respect the Z direction to allow the formation of boxes (90) of different height (H1, H2) like those shown in Figs. 15 to 18.
[0260] The machine (200) also comprises two active benders (50) integrated in the forming mold (100) around the molding cavity (2), configured to actuate from their initial position located outside the molding cavity (2), and a final position causing bending of walls and / or flaps of the box (90).
[0262] In Figs. 3 to 10, the forming mold (100) that is an integral part of the machine (200) comprises two parallel mold bridges (61) separated by an adjustable distance, in each of which one of said active benders is supported.
[0263] In Figs. 3 to 14 it is observed that each active bender (50) comprises a nosepiece (61a) adjoining the rectangular perimeter of the molding cavity (2) and facing said molding cavity (2). Each of the two active benders (50) also comprises a bender member (51), integrally attached to a bender shaft (54) perpendicular to the Z direction and adjacent to the molding cavity (2). Each bending member (51) is pivotable between the initial position (Fig. 11) located outside the molding cavity (2), and an end position (Fig. 13) that remains inside the molding cavity (2) facing a tightening plane (58) to the nose piece (61a) by pressing a flap (95) of the side wall (97) of the box (90) folded on itself (Figs. 9 and 10) between the nose piece (61a) and the clamping plane (58) in final position. The bender shaft (54) of each active bender (50) is closer to the initial position of the core (120) than its respective nose (61a). Each of the two active benders (50) comprises a bender member actuator (57), configured to cause movement of the folding member (51) between the initial and final positions.
[0265] The bending member actuator (57) for the first embodiment is the same as for the second machine embodiment and is shown in Figs. 25 and 26, in which it is observed that it comprises a fluid dynamic cylinder, which is connected to a linear rack (56) that meshes with a pinion (55) coaxial to the bending shaft (55) and fixed on the bending shaft (55).
[0267] Likewise, in Figs. 3 and 4 it is observed that each bending member (51) has two flexible rigid elements, in this example two straps (69), which are fixed to each bending member by means of a fixing flange (68) and screws. With this, greater tightening is achieved when a flap (95) of the side wall (97) of the box (90) folded on itself is pressed (Figs. 9 and 10).
[0269] Figs. 3, 6, 8, and 11 to 14 show that the machine (200) further comprises four auxiliary stops (4) movable between an extended position (Figs. 6 and 11) located inside the molding cavity (2) and a position retracted (Fig. 13) located outside the molding cavity (2). The auxiliary stops (4) are arranged to stop the bottom of the box (90) inside the molding cavity (2) in an auxiliary work plane (P2) parallel to the mold entry plane (1), the depth being of the auxiliary work plane (P2) with respect to the input plane (PE) smaller than that of the work plane (P1). The bottom (94) of the box (90) is stopped by supporting the bottom (94) of the box (90) on said auxiliary stops (4).
[0271] In Fig. 12 the auxiliary stops (4) stop the bottom of the box (90) in the auxiliary work plane (P2) when the active benders (50) are in their initial position.
[0272] In Fig. 13 the stops (83) stop the bottom (94) of the box (90) in the work plane (P1) when the active benders (50) are in their final position.
[0274] Figs. 6 and 8 show that each auxiliary stop (4) is hingedly installed on an auxiliary stop hinge (5). Likewise, each auxiliary stop (4) has a compression spring (6) fixed at its other end to the auxiliary stop support (7). Thus, after stopping the bottom (94) of the box (90), the side walls (97, 96) of the box (90) push the auxiliary stops (4) and slide along the auxiliary stops (4) in their retracted position .
[0276] Fig. 6, 11, 13 and 14 show that the auxiliary stops (4), the auxiliary stop joint (5) and the spring (6) are supported in an auxiliary stop support (7) forming an auxiliary stop assembly (9). Said auxiliary stop assemblies (9) are adjustable in a direction parallel to the Z direction.
[0278] Figs. 5 to 8 show that machine (200) further comprises four active second benders (22), integrated in the forming mold (100) around the molding cavity (2), operable from their initial position located outside the molding cavity ( 2), and a final position causing the bending of the walls and / or flaps of the box (90), said second active bends (22) being positionable in their final positions when the bottom (94) of the box (90) is stopped on the work plane (P1). Each second active bender (22) comprises a second active bender actuator (23) embodied in a fluid dynamic cylinder that moves in use a clamping blade (24) between the initial position and the final clamping position around an axis of rotation. (25).
[0280] In Fig. 5 it is observed that the four active second benders (22) are arranged in the respective corners of the molding cavity (2) to cause the bending of the reinforcement fins (101) of the corners of the boxes (90) shown in Figs. 15 to 18. In said final position, the respective clamping blades (24) press the reinforcing tabs (101) against a clamping pad (52) which is an integral part of the bending member (51) of the active bender (50). Said clamping plugs (52) that match the shape of the reinforcing flaps (98, 99) of the box (90).
[0282] In Figs. 5 to 8 and 11 to 14 it is observed that the machine (200) also comprises four third stops (14) located in the same plane parallel to the input plane (PE), positioned in a position closer to the input plane (PE) of the forming mold (100) than the auxiliary stops (4). Said four third stops (14) are configured to limit the movement of the box (90) in the Z direction in the extraction direction of the male (120) when the bottom (94) of the box (90) is supported on the auxiliary stops (4).
[0284] In Figs. 5 and 6, each third stop (14) is hingedly supported around a second pivot point axis (12) supported on a third stop support (15). Each third stop (14) has a second compression spring (17) fixed at its other end. Thus, when the male (120) introduces the plate (110) into the molding cavity (2), the bottom (94) and the side walls (97, 96) to be formed of the box (90) push the third stops towards the exterior of the mold cavity (2) forcing the second springs (17) and holding the third stops (14) in their retracted position outside the mold cavity (2). Once the bottom (94) of the box (90) and the side walls (96, 97) have passed the third stops (14), these limit the backward movement of the box (90).
[0286] In Figs. 8, 11, 13 and 14, the third stops (14) form an integral part of an active ejector device (10), each active ejector device (10) also comprising an ejector actuator (11) provided with a fixed part (11a) supported in the forming mold (100) and a movable part (11b) where one of said third stops (14) is supported. The ejector actuator (11) is embodied in a fluid dynamic cylinder, its fixed part (11a) corresponds to a cylinder body and its movable part (11b) is connected to the piston of said fluid dynamic cylinder. Each active ejector device (10) comprises an ejector support (15) on which the fixed part (11a) of the ejector actuator (11) is supported. Each ejector support (15) is provided with an elongated hole (15a) aligned with the Z direction. The position of each third stop (14) is adjustable by releasing and locking a locking element (16) such as a screw that It fixes the ejector support (15) to the passive bender (20) and allows the ejector device to be positioned along the Z direction for the formation of boxes (90) of different heights (H1, H2).
[0288] In Figs. 3 to 8, and especially in Fig. 5, it is observed that, in the forming mold (100) that forms an integral part of the machine (200), two parallel mold bridges (61) are separated by an adjustable distance by means of a first adjusting device (72, 73, 74, 75). Said first adjustment device (72, 73, 74, 75) comprises two guide bars (74) parallel to each other and spaced a distance apart, perpendicular to the two mold bridges (61), and structurally supported on the machine (200). It also comprises two adjustment spindles (72) parallel to said guide bar (74), provided with a left-hand thread direction and another right-hand thread direction. Likewise, it comprises four carriage nuts (73), where each pair of nuts (73) slide on the same guide bar (74) and the same spindle (72). Furthermore, it comprises a power transmission element (75) embodied in a transmission chain.
[0290] Thus, each mold bridge (61) is connected at its two ends by means of a respective carriage nut (74) to a respective adjustment spindle (72) and to a respective guide bar (74), whereby by turning a regulation spindle (72) move the two mold bridges (61) equidistant distances.
[0292] In Figs. 3 to 8, it is illustrated that two main supports (19) slidable along their respective chassis bridge (61) are supported on each mold bridge (61).
[0293] Also the four passive wall benders (20) are supported on the four main supports (19), one by one.
[0295] Furthermore, in the former mold (100) two second adjusting devices (62, 63) separate each pair of passive wall benders (20) supported on the same mold bridge (61) a second adjustable distance along each bridge mold (61).
[0296] Each said second adjusting device (62, 63) comprises a second adjusting spindle (62), provided with a left-hand thread and another right-hand thread, and with two second nuts (63). Each of the second nuts (63) is fixed to the main supports (19) so that they move passive benders (20)
[0297] By means of these first and second adjusting devices, the molding cavity (2) is configured to house inside a box (90) with a rectangular bottom (94) of different sizes.
[0299] Furthermore, in the machine (200), an auxiliary stop (4) is supported directly or indirectly on each of the four main supports (19), so that the distance between said active ejector devices (10) is adjustable, so that The bottom (94) of the box (90) is stabilized by said auxiliary stops (4) for different sizes of the rectangular bottom (94) of the box (90).
