DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
The invention concerns a machine for cutting and removing cord or band from secured goods, with a portal stand and a conveyer leading through the latter.
According to regulations, the top goods piled on pallets must be held together by means of a binding agent (cord or band) applied in the horizontal plane. The binding agent is removed after the shipping process has been concluded.
We know the rod cutter used by the pallet lift truck driver to cut the cord or band with which the goods are tied together. This is laborious and troublesome work. Also inconveniencing are the cut binding agents and the carrying along of the cutter.
These drawbacks will be eliminated with the machine according to the invention.
The drawings show, as an example, an embodiment of the machine object of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a view of the machine,
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the feeler plate control system,
FIG. 3 shows a feeler plate with a blade actuating system, and
FIG. 4 shows a feeler plate with attached suction head.
The machine presented here includes a portal stand to which a conveyer 22 brings the goods 3 (FIG. 1) secured by a cord or a band. This portal stand is formed by one bottom cross girder 25, one top cross girder 26 and two uprights 23, 24. One upright 23 is higher and provided on top with a bracket 39 whereto is secured a chain block 37 fitted with a gear brake motor. It serves to effect parallel vertical adjustment of a cross beam 28 provided with roller guides 27 at both uprights 23, 24. The cross beam 28 is suspended at one end from a rope line 29 and on the other from a rope line 30. The rope line 29 is turned around a fixed rope pulley 33 and connected to an eye 34 of a load hook 35 of a block 36 guided horizontally by a pulley 38. The other rope line 30 is turned around the two fixed pulleys 32 and 33 and also attached to the eye 34. Pulley block 36 is connected with the chain of chain block 37 and the vertical adjustment of cross beam 28 can be effected by manual control or by automated scanning and made to fit the respective height of the top goods 3 tied up.
To the bottom side of one end section of the cross beam 28 is mounted a cutter unit 1 and, of the other end section, a suction unit 2 in the longitudinal direction of cross beam 28, by means of detachable clamp connections 31.
Both units 1, 2 display each one plate to which two guide rods 11 are attached (FIG. 2). They serve to guide the adjustable cross girder 13 controlled by means of a lifting drive 12. In two longitudinal bearings 19 attached to the plate are held two movable push and pull rods 15 which are led, in addition, through one hub 14 each of cross girder 13 with longitudinal bearings. Both rods 15 are secured at their outer end to lugs 16 of a feeler plate 4. Springs 17 are resting against cross girders 13 and serve to push the feeler plate 4 forward with the desired strength. The foremost position of feeler plate 4 is limited by stops 18. Feeler plate 4 can be moved to maximum position 20 (H.sub.max). Upon contact with the goods 3, the feeler plate 4 will remain set in position 21.
Two vertical guide rods 7 (FIG. 3) are attached to the feeler plate of the cutter unit 1. These rods hold a blade head 5 made movable by a lifting drive 6. The blade projects through a slot of feeler plate 4 and minimum by the thickness of the binding agent (cord or band) so that the cord or band can be caught by the cutting edge of the blade.
Onto the feeler plate 4 of the suction unit 2 is installed a funnel-shaped suction head 8 with the suction intake 9 positioned in the area of the cut binding agent (FIG. 4). Suction head 8 is connected to a suction hose 10 that leads into a vacuum container that acts as a separator and that is connected to a suction blower (not shown here).
1. A machine for cutting and removing cord or band extending in a plane and surrounding a number of discrete packages placed on a pallet extending in a place substantially parallel to that cord or band, comprising beam; cutter means for automatically sucking in and removing said cut
