Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION


I. Field of the Invention



[0001] This invention relates generally to a wrapping machine and, more specifically, to a wrapping machine for paper and plastic packing that attaches a banding PET wrapper closely on the surface of the paper or plastic packing; the vacuum pump connecting to the plastic wrapping fixture having small holes sucks air out, the air goes out through the small holes of the plastic wrapping fixture and the crevices on the packing boxes to have the PET wrapper with back glue attach closely on the surface by the shape of the packing boxes.

II. Description of the Prior Art



[0002] Heretofore, it is known that the plastic wrapping on the paper and plastic packaging has two common ways: smearing or sprinkling; however the known methods has some drawbacks: the smearing or sprinkling might introduce uneven apertures on the surface of plastic, the food packaging with such wrapping might not have good waterproof and grease-proof effect, such method can not meet the requirement of food or beverages; the plastic wrapper and packaging do not have glue to fasten, the plastic wrapper might fall off easily to influence the quality of contents; the material of the plastic wrapper normally are PP, OPP, OPS or PE; PET is no seen as wrapper, therefore the known packing are only available for low temperature storage, and not able to be heated in high temperature, especially in oven.

[0003] The known packing technology based on above description, the major drawback is the airtight is not good enough that causes water and oil permeation, none of these products can be placed into oven for baking; none of the banding type plastic wrapper with back glue machine for packing are available in the market.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION



[0004] It is therefore a primary object of the invention to provide a wrapping machine for paper and plastic packing that attaches a banding PET wrapper closely to the surface of a paper and plastic packing to achieve automatic manufacturing effect, the manufacturing cost is lower, the packed products have more application effect.

[0005] In order to achieve the objective set forth, a wrapping machine for paper and plastic packing in accordance with the present invention comprises a machine pedestal with a plastic wrapping fixture, a plastic wrapper supplier, a cutter, a clip board and a heating board are installed on the machine pedestal. The major feature are as follows: more than one packing holes are on the plastic wrapping fixture, the packing holes corresponds to the shape of the bottom of the packing box, a plurality of small holes are on the packing holes to connect to a vacuum pump; the paper or plastic packing box is placed into the packing hole, a banding PET wrapper with glue on the back is covered on the packing box by the plastic wrapper supplier, the heating board heats up and makes the PET wrapper soft, the vacuum pump sucks air out to have the PET wrapper with back glue attach closely on the surface of the packing box; then the clip board lifts the packing box attached on the PET wrapper, the plastic wrapping fixture and the lower mold of the cutter are moved to the definite position, the empty packing hole is ready for next packing box; the upper and lower molds of the cutter are in line vertically with the packing box, the upper and lower molds of the cutter cut the PET wrapper along the edges of the pacing box to finish the wrapping. The thickness of the PET wrapper is between 25 µm to 80 µm, the back glue is heat condense glue.

[0006] The structure effectively attaches a banding PET wrapper closely on the surface of the paper or plastic packing to increase the application effect.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS



[0007] The accomplishment of the above-mentioned object of the present invention will become apparent from the following description and its accompanying drawings which disclose illustrative an embodiment of the present invention, and are as follows:

FIG 1 is a top view of the present invention;

FIG 2 is a perspective view of the present invention;

FIG 3 is a side view of the present invention;

FIG 4 A - I are application views of the present invention.


DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT



[0008] Referring to FIG 1 to FIG 3, the present invention comprises a machine pedestal 10 with a plastic wrapping fixture 20, a plastic wrapper supplier 30, a cutter 40, a clip board 50 and a heating board 60 are installed on the machine pedestal 10. The function of each component is described as following:

[0009] More than one packing holes 21 are on the plastic wrapping fixture 20, the packing holes 21 corresponds to the shape of the bottom of the packing box 90, a plurality of small holes 22 are on the packing holes 21 to connect to a vacuum pump 70.

[0010] Based on the structure described above, as shown in FIG 1, a wrapper roller 31 and a wrapper retriever 32 of the plastic wrapper supplier 30 are installed on the front and back wall of the machine pedestal 10; the banding PET wrapper 80 is installed on the wrapper roller 31, one end of the banding PET wrapper 80 passes over the plastic wrapping fixture 20 and is fixed on the wrapper retriever 32 to supply the banding PET wrapper 80 continuously, the wrapper retriever 32 retrieves the used wrapper.

[0011] As shown in FIG 2, the cutter 40 further comprises of an upper mold 41 and a lower mold 42, the upper mold 41 is above the machine pedestal 10 and moves up, down vertically corresponding to the plastic wrapping fixture 20; the lower mold 42 is installed on one side of the plastic wrapping fixture 20 and moves horizontally along the plastic wrapping fixture 20 (as shown in FIG 1) to beneath the upper mold 41 or when the upper mold 41 leaves the position.

[0012] The clip board 50 is in square shape and is installed above the machine pedestal 10, between the upper mold 41 of the cutter 40 and the plastic wrapping fixture 20 to move vertically; when the banding PET wrapper 80 passes above the plastic wrapping fixture 20, the clip board 50 presses down the banding PET wrapper 80 to the plastic wrapping fixture 20 and generates airtight condition, as shown in FIG 3.

[0013] The heating board 60 in installed above the wrapper retriever 32 and is on the backside of the machine pedestal 10, the heating board 60 can move forward to the top of the wrapping area of the plastic wrapping fixture 20; before the clip board 50 presses the banding PET wrapper 80 onto the plastic wrapping fixture 20, the heating board 60 heats up and makes the PET wrapper 80 soft.

[0014] Referring to FIG 4 and based on above description, the paper or plastic packing box 90 is placed into the packing hole 21 of the plastic wrapping fixture 20, a banding PET wrapper 80 with glue on the back is covered on the packing box 90 by the plastic wrapper supplier 30, the PET wrapper 80 is pressed on the plastic wrapping fixture 20 by the clip board 50, the heating board 60 heats up and makes the PET wrapper 80 soft, the vacuum pump 70 sucks air out, the air goes out through the small holes 22 of the plastic wrapping fixture 20 and the crevices on the packing box 90 to have the PET wrapper 80 with back glue attach closely on the surface by the shape of the packing box 90; then the clip board 50 lifts the packing box 90 attached on the PET wrapper 80, the plastic wrapping fixture 20 and the lower mold 42 of the cutter 40 are moved to the definite position (have the plastic wrapping fixture 20 move out the working area, at the same time have the lower mold 42 under the cutter 40 move to the location corresponding to the upper mold 41, as shown in G chart of FIG 4, the G chart is vertical to F chart), the empty packing hole 21 is ready for next packing box 90; the upper and lower molds 41, 42 of the cutter 40 are in line vertically with the packing box 90, the upper and lower molds 41, 42 of the cutter 40 cut the PET wrapper 80 along the edges of the pacing box 90 to finish the wrapping.
