Benefits of technology

This invention is about improving methods and devices for handling bag chains by folding them gently using a folding member that engages between the bags in the chain. The folding member can connect adjacent bags in the chain, allowing for a particularly gentle folding process. This invention results in faster and generous handling of bag chains.

Problems solved by technology

A disadvantage of said solution is that the performance of the device is restricted by the pendulum movement of the guide walls and the weights to be moved thereby.

Embodiment Construction

[0031]The invention is described below by way of a packing machine 10, by way of which the bag chains 11 are packed into containers 12.

[0032]The bag chains 11 are arranged stacked inside the container 12. The invention is concerned with the forming of said stack 13 and the subsequent transport of the same into a container 12.

[0033]FIG. 1 shows the essential members of the device. The bag chain 11 to be packed is severed in a cutting station 14 and the bag chain 11 is folded in a following folding station 15. The folded bag chains 11 are removed by means of a removal conveyor 16. Finally, the folded bag chains 11 are inserted into the container 12.

[0034]The bag chains 11 are realized as described in the introduction, that is to say as a chain of interconnected bags 17. Adjacent bags 17, in this case, are connected together in a connection region 18.

[0035]The bag chains 11 are shortened to a predetermined length in the cutting station 14. A cutting knife 19, which interacts with a cou...
