Embodiment Construction

[0027] Referring now to the drawings in detail, and first to figure 1 and 2 , a dunnage conversion system according to one embodiment of the present invention is indicated generally by reference numeral 10 . The dunnage conversion system 10 includes a dunnage conversion machine 12 (also referred to as a dunnage conversion head) and a dunnage conversion frame 14 comprising a pair of laterally spaced uprights 16, also shown in the shape of a sector A supply 18 of folded sheet stock and a support means, such as a pallet 22, for supporting the supply 18 of fan-folded sheet stock. The sheet stock 18 and pallet 22 can be easily inserted between the uprights 16 (or legs) of the dunnage conversion frame 14 and below the dunnage conversion machine 12, where the pallet 22 does not substantially interfere with The dunnage conversion machine 12 provides a serviced packaging area and from there sheet stock 18 may be pulled from the supply and converted by the dunnage conversion machine 1...

Abstract

A dunnage conversion machine system (10). A support device (14) is provided to support one or more fan-folded stacks of sheet material (61-65), and when the support device (14) is located near the dunnage conversion machine (12), the material flows from the support device (14) Feed to dunnage conversion machine (12). A supply (18) of sheet stock for use with a dunnage converting machine includes at least one continuous layer of sheet stock that is fanfolded and includes a series of folds that together form a sequence of rectangular pages folded into a Another upper folded form to form sheet stock stack(s) (61-65).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a dunnage conversion machine system and a supply of fanfolded sheet stock for a dunnage conversion machine system. Background technique [0002] Dunnage conversion machines convert sheet stock into lower density, useful dunnage products that provide cushioning in packaging, dunnage conversion machines draw from a supply source such as a roll of sheet stock or a stack of fan-folded sheet stock Pull out the flake stock. The fan-folded sheet stock is particularly desirable when the dunnage conversion machine is run at higher speeds to produce void-filled dunnage products. The advantage of fan-folded sheet stock compared to stock rolls of sheet stock is that there is only minimal or no inertia to be overcome. As a result, fan-folded sheet stock exhibits lower Little tug. Also, when using fan-folded stock rather than roll stock, operating speeds are increased and edge tension problems are minimized. [0003] As the opera...
