Abstract

A winding device for loads includes a reel-holder roll adapted for receiving a reel of an extensible plastic film; a vertical column, along which the reel-holder roll is movable; and a lifting plane adapted to receive a load movable along the column, so that the winding device can be used as both a winder and a lifter for forming the load.

Claims (23)

1. A winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ) adapted to wrap a load with an extensible plastic film, comprising:

a reel-holder roll ( 2 ) adapted to receive a reel of the extensible plastic film;

a vertical column ( 3 ), the roll ( 2 ) being movable along the column ( 3 ); and

a lifting plane ( 4 ) adapted to support the load, the lifting plane ( 4 ) being movable along the column ( 3 ),

wherein the column ( 3 ) comprises a sliding cavity ( 31 ) which extends along the column, a sliding cursor ( 41 ) being engaged in the sliding cavity ( 31 ) and coupled to the lifting plane ( 4 ), and

wherein the roll ( 2 ) and the lifting plane ( 4 ) are joined to one another and rotatably coupled with the column ( 3 ) and movable between a first lifting position for lifting the load, in which the lifting plane ( 4 ) is substantially orthogonal to the column ( 3 ), and a second winding position for winding the load, in which the lifting plane ( 4 ) is parallel to the column ( 3 ).

2. The winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the column ( 3 ) guides the sliding cursor ( 41 ).

3. The winding device ( 1 , 10 ) according to claim 1 , wherein at least the lifting plane ( 4 ) is coupled to the sliding cursor ( 41 ) by a roto-translation coupling ( 8 ) comprising a roto-translation joint ( 8 ) that couples the cursor ( 41 ) with the lifting plane ( 4 ).

4. The winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ) according to claim 3 , wherein the roto-translation joint ( 8 ) comprises a roto-translation guide ( 83 ) integral with the sliding cursor ( 41 ) and two pins ( 81 , 82 ) integral with the lifting plane ( 4 ).

5. The winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the roll ( 2 ) is positioned, in an operative condition of the winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ), in the first lifting position, below the lifting plane ( 4 ), a longitudinal development axis of the roll lying on a plane substantially parallel to the lifting plane ( 4 ).

6. The winding device ( 10 ) according to claim 1 , wherein another reel-holder roll ( 20 ) extends parallel to the column ( 3 ).

7. The winding device ( 10 ) according to claim 1 , further comprising a pre-stretching device of the extensible plastic film.

8. The winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ) according claim 1 , further comprising a stand ( 5 ) for resting on a ground, the stand being equipped with wheels.

9. The winding device ( 100 ) according to claim 1 , further comprising a motorized supporting stand ( 5 ) comprising an electric motor, driving wheels, a steering system, and a guiding system.

10. A winding device ( 1 , 10 , 100 , 1000 ) adapted to wrap a load with an extensible plastic film, comprising:

a reel-holder roll ( 2 ) adapted to receive a reel of the extensible plastic film;

a vertical column ( 3 ), the roll ( 2 ) being movable along the column ( 3 ); and

a lifting plane ( 4 ) adapted to support the load, the lifting plane ( 4 ) being movable along the column ( 3 ),

wherein the column ( 3 ) comprises a guide ( 31 ) which extends along the column, a sliding cursor ( 41 ) being engaged in the guide ( 31 ) and coupled to the lifting plane ( 4 ), and

wherein the roll ( 2 ) and the lifting plane ( 4 ) are rotatably coupled with the column ( 3 ) and movable between a first lifting position for lifting the load, in which the lifting plane ( 4 ) is substantially orthogonal to the column ( 3 ), and a second winding position for winding the load, in which the lifting plane ( 4 ) is parallel to the column ( 3 ),

wherein at least the lifting plane ( 4 ) is coupled to the sliding cursor ( 41 ) by a roto-translation coupling ( 8 ) comprising a roto-translation joint ( 8 ) that couples the cursor ( 41 ) with the lifting plane ( 4 ),

wherein the roto-translation joint ( 8 ) comprises a roto-translation guide ( 83 ) integral with the sliding cursor ( 41 ) and two pins ( 81 , 82 ) integral with the lifting plane ( 4 ),

wherein the roto-translation guide ( 83 ) has at least one open neck ( 84 ) configured to enable the two pins ( 81 , 82 ) to move freely therein, the pins ( 81 , 82 ) being aligned with each other and spaced on a plane perpendicular to a development plane of the lifting plane ( 4 ), thereby enabling a disengagement of at least one of the two pins ( 82 ) during passage from the first lifting position to the second winding position.
