[0004] TECHNICAL SECTOR
[0006] The present invention relates, according to a first aspect, to a machine for forming boxes from flat sheets of laminar material. The present invention also concerns, according to a second aspect, a method for forming boxes.
[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 US2798416A, US3978774A, ES235835U, ES255122U, US4581005A, ES2342522B1 and EP3305514A1 disclose machines for the formation of boxes by folding and gluing of blanks of sheet material. Said machines comprise a mold with a molding cavity and a conveyor for individually transporting flat plates from an initial position to the mouth of said molding cavity. Also said machines include a tap movable guided in a path aligned with said mouth of the molding cavity, and a tap drive that moves said core in use along said path aligned in an insertion direction, to press said flat plate and inserting it into the mold cavity causing a bending of parts thereof to form a box, and in an opposite extraction direction, to extract the core from the mold cavity. Furthermore, said machines comprise glue applicator equipment with a plurality of glue injectors that apply strings of glue to join parts of the plate by gluing. The machines of these documents are not suitable for the formation of conical boxes, that is, boxes with two opposite side walls with a convergent inclination towards the mouth of the box.
[0014] Document ES2439142B1 describes a device for bending and gluing the corners of conical cardboard boxes, where two of the opposite sides of the box are perpendicular to the box while the other two opposite sides adopt a certain angle, not being perpendicular to the base, that is attached to a mold system by triggers or column, comprising a curved tilting piece anchored by means of a rotation axis and a fork adjustable on one axis thanks to a slot provided in a clamping bracket integral to the mold by triggers, and which has on said tilting curved piece, on the one hand, a pneumatic cylinder and its support for the Tilting flange bender through an axis, and on the other hand, a pneumatic cylinder and support for forming the taper of the box. It is described that the cardboard sheet would slide in through the upper part of the tilting curved piece and once in position the male or mandrel acts pushing the plate and sliding it in the straight part of the tilting curved piece.
[0016] In documents ES2439142B1 and ES2646330B1, when the male comes out, the pneumatic cylinder comes into operation, forming the conicity of the box. The flange bender, attached to the tilting curved piece, will then act to bend the flange to the gluing position. The trigger of the mold is then activated by triggers or column, pushing the already glued column side until it is glued to the flange and thus forming the column of the box.
[0018] Documents ES2439142B1 and ES2646330B1 have focused, among others, on solving the technical problem of forming the inclination of opposite side walls to obtain conical rectangular boxes in boxes of triangular column format. In these documents the inclined side walls have fins that form a triangular column by folding by fold lines essentially perpendicular to the base of the box and to the fold lines of said inclined walls. Since the bend lines of the inclined walls are essentially perpendicular to the bend lines of the triangular column, the bending of the triangular column is not capable of modifying the inclination of the walls, and therefore said conical boxes are correctly formed.
[0020] However, the technical problem to be solved is related to the formation of another box format. Said boxes are prismatic boxes with a polygonal base with two opposite inclined walls folded around base fold lines, and said inclined walls are provided with additional fold lines parallel to the base fold lines. The additional fold lines allow the folding of flaps called horizontal "canopies", extending horizontally from the sloping wall into the box. In said horizontal roof flaps, an identical box is stacked on top of the other with the product contained therein. In this case, the inclination of the inclined walls is liable to be modified in an undesired way when the horizontal roof fins are folded later, due to the fact that the base fold lines and the fold lines additional are parallel. This effect is aggravated by insufficiently marked fold lines, either because this fact makes the manufacture of the sheet of laminar material cheaper, or because of a manufacturing error of the sheet that can be corrected by means of a box-forming machine capable of forming even said quality plates. low and low cost, or defective.
[0022] Thus, in state-of-the-art box-forming machines there is no control over the inclination of the sloping walls at an angle of less than 90 degrees with respect to the base, while keeping the roof flaps horizontal. It is important that the boxes are formed with the inclination in the side walls for which they were designed so that the reinforcing corners are in adequate contact with the base to confer structural strength to the box, even more so in view of its subsequent stacking . On the other hand, it is important that said roof flaps are horizontal to ensure said stacking of boxes.
