Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A wrapping device to wrap an object in foil material including a frame, a wrapping table mounted on the frame and configured to support the object during wrapping, one or more roll support devices to support one or more rolls of foil material to be rotated about the object during wrapping, a carrying structure mounted on the frame and configured to carry the one or more roll support devices, and a clamping and cutting device to clamp the foil material after wrapping of an object, and to cut the clamped foil material, wherein the clamping and cutting device is mounted on the carrying structure, and wherein the carrying structure is pivotable about a substantially horizontal pivot axis with respect to the frame.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for wrapping an object in foil material, using a wrapping device comprising a frame, a wrapping table mounted on the frame and configured to support the object during wrapping, one or more roll support devices to support one or more rolls of foil material to be rotated about the object during wrapping, a clamping and cutting device to clamp the foil material after wrapping of an object, and to cut the clamped foil material at a cutting location, and a carrying structure pivotably mounted on the frame and configured to carry the one or more roll support devices and the clamping and cutting device, comprising the steps of: placing an object to be wrapped on the wrapping table; wrapping the object in foil material by rotating the one or more roll supports about the object, while rotating at the same time the object on the wrapping table; pivoting the carrying structure from a wrapping position to a cutting position before cutting of the foil material, wherein in the cutting position the cutting location of the clamping and cutting device is substantially arranged in an imaginary plane defined by the middle of the height of the one or more rolls of foil material during wrapping, and cutting the foil material. 2. The method according to claim 1 , comprising pivoting of the carrying structure about a substantially horizontal pivot axis.
