An apparatus for producing air-cushion elements having at least one supply roll (1) of laminatable plastic film material (9) comprises a cutting means (21) for cutting at least one opening into the plastic film material, which is double-layered in the apparatus. By means of a blower (29), air is blowable through said opening into the plastic film material. By means of closing means (23, 24), a sealed air cushion can be created from the plastic film material. A cam disc (10) is provided that has a series of raised guide means (11, 16, 17) that are in direct actuation contact with the cutting means (21) and with the closing means (23, 24). In this manner a very simple apparatus of this type has been created in which, moreover, a simple cutting blade can be used that is also exchangeable in a simple manner.
An apparatus for producing packaging air-cushion elements having at least one supply roll (1) of laminatable plastic film material (9) that is feedable in at least one length to the apparatus (2, 7), comprising a cutting means (21) for cutting at least one opening into the plastic film material (9), which is double-layered in the apparatus, comprising a blower whereby air is blowable through said opening into the plastic film material (9), and comprising closing means (23, 24) for creating a sealed air cushion from the plastic film material (9), characterized in that a cam disc (10) is provided on which a series of raised guide means (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) are provided that are in direct actuation contact with the cutting means (21) and with the closing means (23, 24).
An apparatus for producing packaging air-cushion elements, having at least one supply roll (1) of laminatable plastic film material (9) that is feedable in at least one length to the apparatus, comprising a cutting means (21) for cutting at least one opening into the plastic film material (9), which is double-layered in the apparatus, comprising a blower whereby air is blowable through said opening into the plastic film material (9), and comprising closing means (23, 24) for creating a sealed air cushion from the plastic film material (9), characterized in that the cutting means (21) has a tapered or arrow shape in such a way that the tip of the shape is oriented facing away from the blower in the direction of the air cushion to be filled.
