Abstract

The present invention relates to a shrink tunnel for enabling a packaging material wrapping article aggregation to shrink, and a method for enabling a packing material wrapping goods aggregation to shrink. The shrink channel comprises: at least one conveyor belt used for articles wrapped in the packaging material; and at least two shaft walls arranged on both sides with respect to the conveyor belt, shrink medium is guided to the shrink film of the wrapped articles through these shaft walls. The shrink medium is generated by means of a fan (for example, by means of a hot-air blower), and is introduced into the shaft walls from above. The shrink medium is introduced into the shrink tunnel, through nozzle openings arranged in the side surface of the shaft walls perpendicular to the conveyor belt. According to the present invention, the shaft walls include at least one deflecting device used for the shrink medium. Flow directions of the shrink medium are reversed by the deflecting device. The shrink tunnel of the present invention has a favorable flow direction, in order to circumvent the disadvantages of known arrangement schemes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a shrink tunnel for shrinking a packaging material surrounding a collection of objects, wherein the shrink tunnel comprises at least one conveying plane and at least two cylinder walls, wherein the conveying plane has a function for wrapping with packaging material The conveying section of the article, and the article wrapped in packaging material can be loaded with shrinking medium through the wall of the cylinder. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for shrinking a packaging material surrounding a collection of objects, wherein a shrinking medium is introduced from the cylinder wall into the shrinking channel. Background technique [0002] Methods and devices are known from the prior art for packaging objects (packages) which use shrink films as wrappings for objects. Shrink films of this type are generally wound as film cutouts around the assembly of goods by means of a packaging system. This so-called collectio...
