A strapping device for strapping packages, having a packing table on which the package passes through the strapping device along a movement path, having a strapping frame, having a rotation device in the packing table, having a strapping channel which is formed by the strapping frame, and having closure flaps which close a channel opening of the channel member which is arranged in the packing table.

Strapping device having a device for rotating a package

A strapping device for strapping packages, having a packing table via which the package is moved along a movement path through the device, having a strapping frame which is oriented transversely with respect to the movement path and through which the package passes during its movement through the device, having a strap channel which is open in the direction of the frame interior, is formed by the strapping frame and has at least two vertical channel legs which are arranged on both sides of the movement path of the package, and having a multiplicity of strap channel flaps which are secured on the strapping device channel so as to be moveable by way of an articulated leg and are provided with a covering leg which overlies approximately half of the channel opening in the direction of a strap channel longitudinal axis.

Disclosed is a method for arranging an edge-protection device on a package. For this purpose, an arranging device is moved from a starting position in the direction of the package. The package edge is sensed by way of a first or a second sensor. Which sensor is to be used is determined by a controller. To this end, the latter checks whether one of the sensors is arranged above the package top side. Also disclosed is an arranging device, which is used in the abovementioned method.

Method for positioning an edge-protector and apparatus for strapping packages

A strapping apparatus () for packages () has a frame-like strapping channel which is composed of an upper and a lower channel section () which are connected by way of a first and a second vertical section (). A first diverting device connects () the first vertical section to the lower channel section, and a second diverting device () connects the lower channel section to the second vertical section. A bayonet () which can be inserted along a movement path alternative to the lower channel section () into the strapping channel, in which the insertion movement is directed from the first to the second diverting device. The first diverting device is mounted on a pivot axle () by means of which the first diverting device can be moved from a normal position, which connects the first vertical section and the lower channel section, into a deflected position, in which the connection is eliminated. A guide element is arranged on that end of the bayonet which is averted from the bayonet tip, which guide element connects the first vertical section to a channel section formed by the bayonet.

Strapping apparatus with bayonet

A strapping apparatus () for packages, has a packing table () on which the package () to be strapped lies. The apparatus has vertically oriented supports () which are arranged laterally on the packing table (), a horizontally oriented pressing plate () which is arranged on the vertical supports () and which is movable in a vertical direction, and a device, situated on the pressing plate (), for the arrangement of an edge protection means on the package () lying on the packing table (). The device for the arrangement of the edge protection means can be moved from an initial position remote from the package into an arrangement position close to the package (). The device includes at least one magazine (), arranged on the pressing plate (), for the supply of edge protection means and has a first clearance outline profile which is delimited by the packing table (), the vertical supports (), the pressing plate () and the at least one magazine (). The magazine () has a normal position which, for the transfer of an edge protection means, corresponds to the initial position of the arrangement device, and the magazine () is a part of a first clearance outline profile. The magazine () has a deflected position into which it can be moved from the normal position and in which the magazine () is part of a second, wider clearance outline profile. A method for strapping packages in a strapping apparatus is also disclosed.
