Abstract (en)

[origin: CN105984601A] A device and a method for manufacturing a shrink film package (38) formed by a combined product or a container (12) group (10) are disclosed. a film applying device (16) is distributed for a transportation path (14) and used for covering a corresponding product or container group (10) with a film section (20) along the transportation direction (18) to form a lap joint zone (22) and an overlap joint sheet (24) protruding the product or container group (10) at the edge side of a cross section. A mechanical folding element (26) is used for overlapping two overlap joint sheets (24) transversally protruding out of adjacent products or containers, wherein an opening (32) is formed between end edges (30) pointing each other of the overlap joint sheets (24). In a heating path section (34), the folded overlap joint sheets (24) are maintained at corresponding positions, and a film covering part (20) is loaded by hot air to form the shrink film package (38). For fixing the folded overlap joint sheets (24) and/or maintaining the overlap joint sheets (24) at the folding position, the mechanical folding element (26) extends to the heating path section (34) at least from a partial section (42) having a specified length (44a, 44b).
