Abstract

The present invention provides a manufacturing system of a packaging bag with excellent manufacturing efficiency. According to the present invention, provided is a manufacturing system of a packaging bag, including: a film supply device; a conveying device; a bottom insertion device; a bottom sealing device; a transverse sealing device; and a cutoff device, wherein the film supply device supplies a front surface long film and a back surface long film facing each other, the conveying device is configured to convey the front surface long film and the back surface long film, the bottom insertion device, the bottom sealing device, the transverse sealing device, and the cutoff device are arranged in this order along a conveyance direction, the bottom insertion device is configured to start inserting a bottom long film between the front surface long film and the back surface long film at an insertion start position and to complete insertion of the bottom long film at an insertion completion position downstream from the insertion start position, the bottom sealing device is configured to weld the bottom long film to the front surface long film and to the back surface long film, the transverse sealing device forms a transverse seal portion extending in a direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction so as to weld the front surface long film and the back surface long film to each other, and the cutoff device cuts off the front surface long film, the back surface long film, and the bottom long film along the transverse seal portion.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A manufacturing system of a packaging bag, comprising:
a film supply device;
a conveying device;
a bottom insertion device;
a bottom sealing device;
a transverse sealing device; and
a cutoff device,
wherein the film supply device supplies a front surface long film and a back surface long film facing each other,
the conveying device is configured to convey the front surface long film and the back surface long film,
the bottom insertion device, the bottom sealing device, the transverse sealing device, and the cutoff device are arranged in this order along a conveyance direction, the bottom insertion device is configured to start inserting a bottom long film between the front surface long film and the back surface long film at an insertion start position and to complete insertion of the bottom long film at an insertion completion position downstream from the insertion start position,
the insertion start position is a position where insertion of the bottom long film between the front surface long film and the back surface long film starts,
the insertion completion position is a position where insertion of the bottom long film between the front surface long film and the back surface film completed,
at the insertion start position, insertion of the bottom long film is made at an oblique angle to the conveyance direction of the front surface long film and the back surface long film,
the bottom sealing device is configured to weld the bottom long film to the front surface long film and to the back surface long film,
the transverse sealing device forms a transverse seal portion extending in a direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction so as to weld the front surface long film and the back surface long film to each other, and
the cutoff device cuts off the front surface long film, the back surface long film, and the bottom long film along the transverse seal portion.

2. The manufacturing system of claim 1 ,
wherein the bottom insertion device is configured to perform the insertion in a state where the bottom long film is folded in a V shape, and
a distance between the insertion start position and the insertion completion position is 10 or more times longer than W, where W represents a width of the bottom long film in an unfolded state.

3. The manufacturing system of claim 1 ,
wherein the conveying device comprises a roller pair between the insertion start position and the bottom sealing device, the roller pair being configured to pinch the front surface long film and the back surface long film, and the roller pair is arranged so as not to pinch the bottom long film.

4. The manufacturing system of claim 1 ,
wherein the front surface long film comprises a joint portion formed by welding an overlapping portion where an inner surface of an upper front surface portion and an inner surface of a lower front surface portion are overlapped in a state that the upper front surface portion and the lower front surface portion are both folded back,
the transverse sealing device comprises a plurality of seal bar pairs configured to pinch and weld the front surface long film and the back surface long film, and
at least one of the plurality of seal bar pairs is configured to pinch a bottom region where the bottom long film is sandwiched between the front surface long film and the back surface long film and a joint region where the joint portion is formed, and is configured not to pinch an intermediate region between the bottom region and the joint region.
