Problems solved by technology

The strong vertical stresses sustained by the load during the transport can temporarily cancel the weight force of the goods of the palletized load, with the consequent reduction of the friction force between one layer of goods and the next, and possible accidental movements between the layers.
Such practice of firmly and repeatedly wrappi

Example

[0055]With reference to the FIG. 1, reference number 1 overall indicates a head for wrapping loads, more particularly palletized loads, according to the present invention.

[0056]In the following description, by way of a non-limiting example, reference will be made to a head 1 included in a wrapping station 2 (FIG. 7) in which the load 3, in particular a palletized load, is driven to rotate around a vertical or substantially vertical axis, on a suitable rotatable support platform 4, and the wrapping head 1 is fixed with respect to the load 3, and only executes vertical or substantially vertical movements.

[0057]However, the present invention can also be applied to a wrapping station 2 in which the load 3 is locally stationary, while the wrapping head 1 is supported, and driven, to rotate around the aforesaid stationary load 3.

[0058]The wrapping head 1 comprises a support framework 5.

[0059]The support framework 5 comprises a first plate 6, lower during use, and a second plate 7, upper d...

Abstract

A wrapping head for wrapping loads, particularly palletized loads, including a framework, connectable to the operating end of a handler, and supporting a reel of film made of extensible material, and diverting means, for transferring the film, unwound from the reel, towards the load. The head also includes means for cutting the film, along its feed direction, so as to obtain a first portion of film and a second portion of film that are distinct and separate from each other, and deflection means for the first portion of film, suitable to superimpose the first portion on the second portion, thus attaining, at the outlet of said wrapping head, a double-layer material band.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention regards a head for wrapping loads, more particularly palletized loads, and the respective wrapping method.STATE OF THE PRIOR ART[0002]As is known, the palletized loads consist of one or more goods arranged on a pallet for the purpose of facilitating the movement and the transport thereof.[0003]In order to prevent falls or overturning of goods, during the transport of a palletized load it is provided to laterally enclosed or wrap the load itself with a layer of extensible material, for example in the form of a plastic material film.[0004]The wrapping of a palletized load is generally carried out by means of automatic or semiautomatic wrapping stations, comprising means for moving a wrapping head, which carries one or more reels of such extensible material that can be unrolled and wound around the load.[0005]There are different types of wrapping stations.[0006]In some types of stations, the palletized load is maintained stati...
