Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vacuum apparatus for welding a container inserted in the vacuum chamber, in particular a bag, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Vacuum sealers are known from the prior art.
  • DE 10 2013 017 248 describes a Vakuumierschublade for vacuuming food, with a closable vacuum chamber and disposed within the vacuum chamber welding beam.
  • the vacuuming drawer is designed in such a way that the vacuum chamber automatically opens when the drawer is pulled out and / or is automatically closed when it is pushed in.
  • the Vakuumier réelle has at least a first bearing shoulder. This extends along a longitudinal side of the welding bar and is arranged so that it supports the container. As a result, the container is stabilized before and / or during welding.
  • the first bearing shoulder in the closing direction at least partially closer to the abutment arranged as the welding beam.
  • the distances "in the closing direction” mean the distances of the components when the components are projected onto a line which extends parallel to the closing direction.
  • a line is thus initially defined parallel to the closing direction (if the closing movement is a rectilinear closing movement, this line is a straight line). Then the closing beam, the bearing shoulder (s) and the counter bearing in directions projected perpendicularly and radially to this line on the line. In the standby position, at least one projected point of each bearing shoulder is now closer to the projected points of the anvil than the projected points of the weld beam.
  • This arrangement has the advantage that in the ready position of the device, the container to be welded on the bearing shoulder, rather than on the welding bar itself, is supported. Only when the device goes into the operating position, the container comes into contact with the welding bar.
  • the vacuum chamber forms a trough for receiving the "useful part" of the container, i. that part of the container in which the product to be packaged by the container is arranged.
  • the welding device is arranged on an edge of this trough, so that the edge of the container to be closed can be inserted into the welding device.
  • the first bearing shoulder is located between the welding beam and the trough.
  • the kink in the container arises in particular in that the part of the container which is not arranged on the bearing shoulder, lies in the mentioned trough.
  • the kink causes part of the container contents, in particular foods such as sauces or other liquids, to move barely or not at all over the kink during the vacuuming process.
  • the welding bar is disposed below the anvil and moves upwardly against the anvil during the transition from the standby to the operative position while the bearing shoulder is stationary, i. does not move.
  • the welding bar can move independently of the bearing shoulder and the movements caused by the welding bar are transferred only to a reduced extent to the container to be welded.
  • the process stability is thus increased because, thanks to the bearing shoulder, the container experiences less movement than if the container were supported directly on the welding beam.
  • the upper side of the welding bar is arranged lower than the upper side of the bearing shoulder.
  • a deepest portion of said trough may be lower than an upper surface of the bearing shoulder, thereby promoting the formation of a kink in the container at the bearing shoulder.
  • the Vakuumier réelle in addition to the first bearing shoulder on a second bearing shoulder. This is arranged on one of the first bearing shoulder opposite side along the longitudinal direction of the welding beam. In this way, the container can be supported on both sides of the welding bar.
  • the upper side of the welding bar is arranged lower than the upper side of the first bearing shoulder and / or the second bearing shoulder.
  • the Vakuumier réelle has at least one plunger on which the welding bar is supported.
  • the bearing shoulder or bearing shoulders become or become of a supporting device held.
  • the support device is supported on the bottom region of the vacuum chamber, in particular loosely supported, and is laterally (ie in the direction perpendicular to the closing direction) positioned by the plunger. This arrangement aligns in particular the bearing shoulder (s) on the plunger (s) and thus on the welding beam.
  • the device has both a first and a second bearing shoulder
  • said support device can support both the first and the second bearing shoulder, so that the two bearing shoulders and the support device form a unit.
  • the welding bar is removable from the rams, i. it can be non-destructively separated from and attached to these, and the bearing shoulders and the support device can be removed after removing the welding bar the vacuuming unit as a unit (and non-destructive), especially without tools.
  • the Vakuumier réelle a terminal, wherein the terminal is arranged in particular on the second bearing shoulder.
  • the user can fix the container inserted in the vacuum chamber. This increases the process stability, because with vibrations, which are caused in particular by the operation of the Vakuuumier réelles, the container moves less.
  • the clamp is connected to the second bearing shoulder, in particular detachable.
  • the second bearing shoulder on a holder for receiving the terminal and the terminal is reversibly inserted into the holder and this removable.
  • the clamp can also be fixedly connected to the bearing shoulder, in particular by a force and / or cohesive Connection, for example by gluing or screwing.
  • the welding bar is in the ready position, in particular, when the user can remove the container from the vacuum chamber or insert it into the vacuum chamber or while the vacuum chamber is unused. As soon as the vacuuming process is initiated and the vacuum chamber pressure is lowered by sucking off the air, the welding bar reaches the operating position at a certain pressure value.
  • the container does not come into direct contact with the welding bar in the ready position because the container rests on the upper side of the bearing shoulder (s).
  • the “top” of the vacuum chamber is that side to understand which faces the vacuum chamber bottom surface in the vacuum chamber and is formed in a particular embodiment by a vacuum chamber lid.
  • the upper side of the welding bar and the upper side of the bearing shoulder are those sides which, in the relevant component, are closest to the upper side of the vacuum chamber and, in particular, are arranged approximately parallel with the upper side of the vacuum chamber.
  • the "top” of the vacuum chamber corresponds to that side which is at the top when the device is installed as intended.
  • the first and second bearing shoulders are joined together at end portions (i.e., at the short sides) of the welding beam and form a frame around the welding beam through which the welding beam moves at the transition between the standby and operating positions. This improves the support of the container.
  • the Vakuumier réelle can be part of a household appliance and arranged in a drawer of the same become.
  • the household appliance is particularly suitable for installation in a kitchen furniture or a kitchenette.
  • Fig. 1 . 5 and 6 show a Vakuumier réelle 1 for welding a container, in particular a Plastic bag.
  • the apparatus has a vacuum chamber 2 with a vacuum chamber bottom surface 3 and a vacuum chamber lid 13 defining the top of the apparatus.
  • a vacuum pump 4 in Fig. 1 only shown schematically 13 air is sucked through an air outlet opening 41 from the vacuum chamber 2 during a Vakuumiervorgangs with closed vacuum chamber lid.
  • the vacuum chamber 2 forms a trough 42 for receiving the useful part of the container to be welded, i. that part of the container in which the product to be packaged by the container is arranged.
  • the trough 42 preferably has a depth of at least 5 cm, and a width and length of at least 10 cm, preferably more. The usable depth of the trough 42 may be reduced to accommodate the size of the container by a support device described below.
  • a welding device 5 is arranged on a side edge of the trough 42, which serves to weld an opening of the container inserted in the device.
  • the welding device 5 has a heatable welding bar 6 and plunger 8 (FIG. Fig. 6 ), wherein the welding bar 6 is supported on the plunger 8.
  • the plunger 8 are movably mounted. With a three-way valve, the pressure difference between the environment and the vacuum chamber is applied, so that they are at negative pressure in the vacuum chamber up in the z-direction ( Fig. 1 ), ie in the closing direction, move.
  • a container which is inserted into the vacuum chamber 2 is to be arranged by the user so that the point to be welded of the container is clamped during the Vakuumiervorgangs between the welding beam 6 and an abutment 12.
  • the anvil 12 is arranged on the vacuum chamber lid 13 in the present embodiment. It is designed in particular as a welding pad. It is, like the welding bar 6, elongate, with a length which is normally at least as large as or greater than the length of the welding bar 6.
  • the Vakuumier réelle has in its vacuum chamber 2 on a welding beam cover 7. This forms a bearing for the container to be welded in the region of the welding bar 6, but leaves the welding bar 6 free upwards so that it can contact the container during welding.
  • the welding beam cover 7 forms a first and a second bearing shoulder 7a and 7b, respectively.
  • the bearing shoulders 7a, 7b extend along the opposite longitudinal sides of the welding beam 6 and run parallel to this.
  • the bearing shoulders 7a, 7b are, in the closing direction z ( Fig. 1 ), in the above-mentioned ready position closer to the abutment 12 arranged as the welding beam 6.
  • the first bearing shoulder 7a is disposed between the trough 42 and the welding bar 6.
  • the second bearing shoulder 7b is located on the first bearing shoulder 7a and the trough 42 opposite side of the welding beam. 6
  • each bearing shoulder 7a, 7b is preferably equal to or greater than the length of the welding beam 6.
  • the upper side 17 of the welding beam cover 7, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the welding beam 6, has a greater width 16 than the welding beam 6.
  • the upper side of the first bearing shoulder 7a has a rounding 14, which drops towards the depression 42.
  • the container undergoes a kink, because that part of the container, which is arranged on the first bearing shoulder 7a, is higher than the useful part of the container, which in the region of the trough 42 on the vacuum chamber bottom 3 or on a support device 18 -. 22, which will be described below, is supported.
  • the kink of the container is located farther away from the welding bar 6 by a distance 15 than if the first welding bar cover were missing and the container would rest directly on the welding bar 6.
  • This kink forms a flow resistance for the contents of the container, for example, for flowable food, which are arranged inside the bag. This reduces the risk that, in vibrations generated by the operation of the Vakuumier réelles 1, or due to pressure differences in vacuuming, substances from the interior of the container to the welding beam or even beyond reach.
  • the welding bars 7a, 7b with their webs 7c, 7d form a frame through which the welding bar 6 can pass during the transition from the standby position into the operating position.
  • the Vakuumier réelle 1 is in the standby position when no vacuuming takes place, or when the vacuum chamber lid 13 is opened and the container is inserted into the vacuum chamber 2 or this is removed.
  • the upper side of the welding bar 6 is located below the upper side 17 of the welding bar cover 7, in particular below the surfaces of the two bearing shoulders 7a, 7b.
  • the welding bar touches the inserted in the vacuum chamber 2 container usually not because it rests on the top 17 of the bearing shoulders 7a, 7b.
  • a clamp 10 is arranged on the welding beam cover 7, preferably on the second bearing shoulder 7b.
  • the clamp 10 is arranged on the side of the welding bar 6 opposite the trough 42 and the first bearing shoulder 7a.
  • the welding bar 6 is thus between the clamp 10 and the first bearing shoulder 7 a, as well as between the clamp 10 and the trough 42.
  • the clamp 10 serves to hold the container on that side of the container at which the opening of the container is arranged and the air exits the container during the vacuuming process to hold.
  • the container can be easily positioned by the user, and the risk that the container shifts during the Vakuumiervorgangs within the vacuum chamber 2, for example due to vibrations of the Vakuumier réelles 1, is reduced.
  • the clamp 10 is in particular a bent sheet metal, for example made of chrome steel, spring steel, aluminum and / or plastic.
  • the clamp 10 may be fixedly connected to the welding beam cover 7, for example by force locking by screws, as in Fig. 4 shown.
  • the clamp 10 may also be held by a support arranged on the welding beam cover 5, such that the clamp 10 is reversibly removed from the mounting by means of a movement without the aid of tools and is again inserted into it this can be used.
  • the terminal 10 can be easily replaced as a single part.
  • Fig. 2 and 6 show the welding beam cover 7.
  • the welding beam cover has a support device 9, with which it is supported on a shoulder 3a of the vacuum chamber bottom surface 3 (see. Fig. 6 ).
  • the support on the vacuum chamber bottom surface 3 causes only a few vibrations and movements of the Vakuumier réelles 1, in particular of the moving welding bar 6, are transmitted to the welding beam cover 7.

  • the welding beam cover 7 is first inserted and then the welding beam 6 is mounted through the gap 11 from above. To remove the welding beam cover 7, first the welding bar 6 and then the welding beam cover 7 can be removed from the vacuuming device 1. Alternatively, the welding beam cover 7 can be removed together with the welding beam 6, since with raising the welding beam cover and the welding beam 6 can be separated from the rams 8.
