  • Patent number: 11225386
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for stacking of filled sacks (20) to a pallet-free sack stacking (10) comprising the following: Performing of a first layer (L1) from at least two rows of filled sacks (20), Performing of at least one further layer (L2) from at least two rows of filled sacks (20) on top of the first layer (L1), Covering of the completed sack stacking (10) with at least a stabilized cover (30). The first layer (L1) or the last layer (L9) of the sack stacking with at least two elevating recesses (40) are performed for an elevation with a forklift and between two layers (L8, L9) a mechanically stiffened intermediate space (50) is realized with a floor space (52) which extends between both neighboring layers (L8, L9) and at least a lateral flap (54) which extends along the lateral side (22) of the sacks (20) of one of both neighboring layers (L8, L9) and transverse to the elevating recesses (40).

  • Patent number: 11123941
    Abstract: A system for manufacturing sacks or bags includes at least two sack or bag producing machines which control components are assigned to, and which are connected with each other by at least one transport device and/or one storage device. The system includes a control unit configured such that manufacturing speeds of the two sack or bag producing machines can be transmitted to and/or processed by the control unit. The control unit is configured such that it proposes and/or sets the manufacturing speed of the two sack or bag producing machines based on system operating parameters.

  • Patent number: 6499779
    Abstract: A crane gear for the transport of web rolls with a winding core, provided with a passage hole, exhibits a support frame, which is attached to a cable and which is provided with receiving units. The support frame comprises an upper yoke carrier with legs, which point in the downward direction and whose ends are provided with hooks and from which a support rod, which is slid through the passage hole, can be suspended.

  • Patent number: 5312317
    Abstract: An apparatus for providing transverse weld seams and transverse detaching cuts or for providing detaching weld seams on a tubular or semi-tubular web of thermoplastic synthetic resin, and for stacking the detached sections includes a transverse welding and transverse detaching station for detaching sections having bottom weld seams and any leading head weld seams from the web and a stacking station for retaining or fixing the supplied sections. The web is moved intermittently. To cool the trailing weld seams of the sections without causing the sections to stick together adjacent to the bottom weld seams during stacking, a drum is provided which rotates about a transverse axis between the transverse welding and transverse detaching station and the stacking station. The wall of the drum includes at least two wall parts. The drum is adapted to be driven in step with the welding process by rotating the drum through an angular increment related to the number of wall parts of the drum in each revolution.

  • Patent number: 5232325
    Abstract: An apparatus for stacking double bags, which have been severed by hot-wire welding from a tubular web of plastic and have opening-defining edges adjacent to their center line, includes a wicketer having a horizontal shaft and pairs of juxtaposed spokelike radial feeding arms which are axially spaced apart and secured to the shaft and are provided with means for retaining the double bags. Stacking pallets provided with upstanding stacking pins are slidably movable between the feeding arms, by which the double bags are deposited on the pallets, e.g., on needles provided on the pallets.
