    DESCRIPTION
    MOLD FOR MACHINE FORMER FOR FOLDING AND BONDING OF SHEETS OF LAMINARY MATERIAL AND METHOD OF FORMATION OF BOXES FOR FOLDING AND STITCHING OF PLATES OF LAMINARY MATERIAL
    Technical field
    The present invention concerns a mold for a box-forming machine, in which each of the boxes is formed by bending and gluing parts of a single sheet of sheet material.
    The present invention also concerns a method of forming boxes by folding and gluing sheets of sheet material that can be implemented by a box forming machine including said mold.
    Background of the invention
    In the state of the art, box-forming machines are known for folding and gluing sheets of sheet material, comprising a mold and a male moved in and out of the mold by a drive device.
    The mold comprises four symmetrical corner groups facing two to two. The corner groups delimit a rectangular molding cavity intended to receive inside a sheet of laminar material pushed in a downward vertical direction by the male and to form in cooperation with the male a box by folding and gluing several parts of the plate of sheet material. The corner groups are fixed by means of respective base supports to two mutually parallel horizontal guides. The positions of the corner groups are adjustable along the horizontal guides and the separation between the horizontal guides is also adjustable, which allows adapting the dimensions of the mold to boxes of different sizes.
    The sheet of sheet material comprises a plurality of cuts and creasing lines that essentially define a rectangular base panel, a pair of first side panels attached to opposite first sides of the base panel, a couple of second side panels attached to some second opposite sides of the base panel, and flaps attached to opposite ends of the first side panels or the second side panels. The sheet material from which the plate is made can be, for example, sheet

    of compact cardboard, corrugated cardboard sheet, compact plastic sheet or corrugated plastic sheet.
    In the box, the first side panels form long side walls, the second side panels form short side walls, and the flaps make the connections between the long side walls and the short side walls. In column format boxes, the flaps are subdivided into several portions that, once folded, form the corner reinforcement columns.
    The sheet of laminar material, when it is arranged on a mouth of the mold, has tail cords deposited on surfaces of the first or second lateral portions which, when the first and second lateral portions and the flaps are folded forming the box, will be in correspondence with the flaps.
    The corner groups include forming elements and other components that cooperate with each other and / or with the male in the formation of the box. In particular, each of the corner groups has a forming element including an upper bending section and a lower molding section. The upper bending section has a curved or inclined surface in descending ramp towards the inside of the pre-folding mold, during a first introduction path of the sheet of sheet material, the first or second side panels, and the lower molding section has a vertical surface perpendicular or parallel to the horizontal guides to press and glue the first or second side panels to the flaps in the box during a second path of introduction of the sheet of sheet material.
    Both the lower ends of the curved or inclined surfaces of the upper bending sections and the vertical surfaces of the lower molding sections of each pair of mutually facing forming elements are separated from each other by a fixed distance equivalent to the outer width or the external length of box.
    When the sheet of sheet material is introduced by the male into the mold, first of all there is a bending of the first or second friction side panels with the upper bending sections of the forming elements, and then a pressing and gluing of the first or second side panels to the flaps by friction with the lower molding sections of the forming elements and a counter pressure offered by the male's bearing surfaces.

    A drawback of the elements of the state of the art, where the curved or inclined surfaces of the upper bending sections and the vertical surfaces of the lower sections are separated from one another by fixed distances, is that they tend to deficiently assemble the assembly of the corners of the boxes due to the impossibility of the device to perform the folding function and the function of pressing and gluing independently in column-shaped boxes where the flaps are attached to the short side walls and remain inside the side walls long The documents ES 1008620 U, ES 1039420 U and ES 1117031 U describe column format boxes of this type.
    For example, in the formation of boxes such as those described in documents ES 1008620 U and ES 1039420 U, where the upper corners of the box include protruding anchors that are inserted into existing "L" shaped openings in the base panel of another identical box in a stacking situation, the fact that the mold does not have the folding function independent of the pressing and gluing function means that the "L"-shaped socket openings are not located just in the positions corresponding to the outgoing anchors in the corners of the box, are caused by a defective stacking of the boxes.
    On the other hand, for the formation of column-shaped boxes, males are used as described in document ES 2285884 B1, which has angled end legs that when the male introduces the sheet of sheet material into the mold they press precisely on the corners of the base panel in the opposite direction to the friction force. Therefore, during the formation of boxes of the types described in documents ES 1008620 U and ES 1039420 U, the frictional force between the side panels of the sheet of sheet material and the forming element is not compensated correctly with the pressing force exerted by the male on the base panel, since the male's terminal legs do not fall on edges of the base panel but on the lace openings.
    This results in the long side walls not bending correctly along the creasing lines and tend to rise more than the account in relation to the short side walls, and that the base of the box is rounded by the edges of the long walls. Therefore, the upper edge of the long side walls is above an upper edge of the corner reinforcement column or even above the protruding anchor itself, and the conjugate fitting opening deforms and misaligns with respect to the protruding anchor, whereby the stacking of the boxes is poor.

    The drawbacks due to the fact that the folding function is not independent of the pressing and pasting function also occur in column-like boxes as described in ES 2564428 B1, where the flaps are attached to the ends of the Short side walls and are composed of three portions that once folded form the corner reinforcement column, and where the projecting anchors are located in the intermediate portion of the flaps. In addition, the panel that forms the intermediate portion of the flap may be inclined with respect to the long side walls and short side walls. In this case, the protruding anchor is straight and the conjugate socket opening formed in the base is also straight.
    In the boxes of the type described in the aforementioned document ES 2564428 B1, when they are formed in a mold including the forming elements of the state of the art, and due to the aforementioned imbalance of forces causing the incorrect bending of the creasing lines that separate the base of the case of the long side walls, the lace openings are misaligned with respect to the corresponding protruding anchors, which adds to the aforementioned problem of rounding the edges between the base and the long side walls.
    This occurs despite not having the corners weakened as a result of the pressure exerted by the legs of the male, and occurs when the material of which the iron is made is compact cardboard sheet or corrugated cardboard sheet of low quality or low thickness , or compact plastic sheet or corrugated plastic sheet where the creasing lines offer greater resistance to bending and tend to recover their initial state.
    These drawbacks derived from the fact that the folding function and the pressing and gluing function are not independent also appear in boxes of the type described in document ES 1117031 U, where the panels attached to the short side walls are composed of two portions Once folded they form corner reinforcement columns and where the short walls have cuts that define tabs that bend and stick to the corner reinforcement columns.
    In this type of boxes, the short side walls have a certain inclination with respect to the base of the box such that the mouth of the box is smaller than the base. Document ES 2439142 B1 shows a tilting forming element actuated by a linear actuator suitable for folding the short side walls conferring said inclination.

    However, the forming element of the aforementioned document ES 2439142 B1 does not allow precise control over the moment in which the pressing and gluing of the long walls is carried out on the flaps attached to the short walls given that the long side walls and the walls Short sides are bent simultaneously from the initial coplanar state with the base of the sheet of sheet material to a position perpendicular to the base by friction against the forming elements. Once the long side walls and the short side walls are in the perpendicular positions the base proceeds to confer the inclination to the long side walls and the short side walls by the tilting action of the forming elements on the short side walls by means of the actuators linear
    This has the disadvantage that the tail cords deposited on the short side walls are crushed against the flaps attached to the long side walls when they reach their positions perpendicular to the base, and since the long side walls and the short side walls are moved again later to confer their corresponding inclinations, the tail cords do not penetrate efficiently in the long side walls and in the flaps attached to the short side walls.
    Exhibition of the invention
    In accordance with a first aspect, the present invention provides a mold for box-forming machine by folding and gluing sheets of initially flat sheet material. Each sheet of sheet material essentially comprises a rectangular base panel, two first side panels attached to opposite first sides of the base panel, two second side panels attached to a second opposite sides of the base panel, and flaps attached to some opposite ends of the first side panels or attached to opposite ends of the second side panels.
    The sheet material from which the plate is made can be, for example, compact cardboard sheet, corrugated cardboard sheet, compact plastic sheet or corrugated plastic sheet.
    The mold of the present invention comprises four symmetrical corner groups, facing two to two and fixed in pairs to two respective mutually parallel horizontal guides by means of respective base supports. The positions of the corner groups of each pair are adjustable along the respective horizontal guides and the horizontal guides are separated from each other by an equally adjustable distance.

    The four corner groups delimit a rectangular molding cavity intended to receive inside a sheet of laminar material pushed in a downward vertical direction by a male and to form in cooperation with the male a box by folding and gluing several parts of the sheet of sheet material.
    Each of the corner groups has a forming element that includes an upper bending section and a lower molding section. The upper bending section has a curved or inclined surface in descending ramp towards the inside of the mold to pre-bend the first or second side panels of the sheet of sheet material. The lower molding section has a vertical surface perpendicular or parallel to the horizontal guides to position the first or second pre-folded side panels in the positions they should occupy in the box.
    The lower molding sections of the forming elements are connected to respective linear actuators, so that the lower molding sections are movable by the linear actuators with respect to the base supports in opposite directions parallel or perpendicular to the horizontal guides between a receiving position , in which the vertical surfaces of each pair of mutually facing lower molding sections are separated from each other by a first distance, and an active position, in which the vertical surfaces of the lower molding sections of each pair of mutually facing forming elements are separated from each other by a second distance less than the first distance.
    The first distance is greater than an outer width or length of the box to be formed, while the second distance is equivalent to the outer width or length of the box to be formed.
    Thus, the upper bender sections perform a pre-bending action of the sheet of sheet material in cooperation with the male during a first introduction path, during which the upper bender sections are separated from each other by the first distance. Then, and after the sheet of pre-folded sheet material has been received between the lower molding sections of the forming elements by the effect of a second introduction path while the lower molding sections are in the receiving position separated from each other by the first distance, the lower molding sections perform a pressing and gluing action of the first or second side panels by a movement from the receiving position to the active position actuated by the linear actuators.

    The first distance greater than the outer width or length of the box for the upper bending sections may be the same or different from the first distance greater than the outside width or length of the box for the lower molding sections.
    In one embodiment, the upper bending section of each forming element is fixed to the corresponding base support so that it remains stationary while the linear actuator moves the corresponding lower molding section between the receiving position and the active position. In this embodiment, lower ends located further inward of the mold of the curved or inclined surfaces of the bending upper sections of each pair of mutually facing forming elements are permanently separated from each other by the first distance.
    In another embodiment, the upper bending section of each forming element is fixed or attached to the corresponding lower molding section and is movable together with the lower molding section by the corresponding linear actuator. In this embodiment, the lower ends located more inward of the mold of the curved or inclined surfaces of the bending upper sections of each pair of mutually facing forming elements are separated by the first distance during the first receiving path, during which the lower molding sections are in the receiving position, and are moved to positions closer to each other separated by the second distance after the second introduction path when they no longer interact with the sheet of sheet material.
    In one embodiment, the corner groups that support each pair of mutually facing forming elements are fixed to the same horizontal guide in selected positions on purpose so that the first distance is greater than an outer width of the box and the second distance is equivalent to the outside width of the box. In this case, the linear actuator is, for example, a fluid-dynamic cylinder comprising a body fixed to the corresponding base support, an extendable rod and one or more guide rods, and wherein the extendable rod and the guide rods They are parallel to the horizontal guides and are fixed to a support plate. The lower molding section of the forming element is fixed to the support plate.
    In another embodiment, the corner groups that support each pair of mutually facing forming elements are fixed to different horizontal guides, and the horizontal guides are separated by a distance selected on purpose so that the first distance is greater than an outer length of the box and the second distance be
    5
    10
    fifteen

    25
    30
    equivalent to the outer length of the box. In this case, the lower molding section of each forming element is located on an inner side of the corresponding horizontal guide in relation to the mold and the linear actuator is located on an outer side of the corresponding horizontal guide in relation to the mold. To overcome the interposed horizontal guide, the linear actuator is connected to the lower molding section by means of lower and upper connecting arms located below and above, respectively, of the horizontal guide.
    More specifically, the linear actuator is, for example, a fluid-dynamic cylinder comprising a body fixed to the corresponding base support, an extendable rod and one or more guide rods, wherein the extendable rod and the guide rods are perpendicular to the horizontal guides and are fixed to a support plate located on the outer side of the horizontal guide in relation to the mold. The lower and upper connecting arms have one end fixed to the support plate and another end fixed to the lower molding section.
    Optionally, in any of the embodiments, the vertical surfaces of the lower molding sections of the forming elements include a slightly inclined portion from the bottom to the top forming an angle between 1 and 10 degrees from the vertical to confer an inclination equivalent to the corresponding first or second side panel of the sheet of sheet material when pressed and glued to form the box.
    According to a second aspect, the present invention provides a method of forming boxes by folding and gluing sheets of sheet material. The method comprises the steps of:
    - insert a sheet of sheet material by pushing a male into a mold defined by four symmetrical corner groups facing two to two;
    - pre-folding the sheet of sheet material during a first introduction path by means of upper bending sections of some forming elements of the corner groups in cooperation with the male, the upper bending sections being mutually facing and separated by a first distance during the first first introduction path, the first distance being greater than an outside width or length of a box to be formed;
    - receive after a second introduction path the sheet of pre-folded sheet material between lower molding sections of the elements

    shapers of the corner groups, the lower molding sections being mutually facing and separated from each other by the first distance; Y
    - moving the lower molding sections by means of respective linear actuators in approximation of one another until the lower molding sections are separated by a second distance smaller than the first distance, the second distance corresponding to the outer width or length of the box.
    The method according to the second aspect of the present invention can be implemented by the mold according to the first aspect of the present invention.

    Detailed description of some embodiments
    Referring first to Fig. 1, reference sign 1 generally designates a mold for box-forming machine by bending and gluing sheets of sheet material in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Above the mold 1, a sheet of sheet material P (better shown in Fig. 8) is shown, from which a box C will be formed as shown in Fig. 10. Above the sheet of sheet material P is schematically depicted a male 3 cooperating with the mold 1 to form the box C by folding and gluing several parts of the sheet of sheet material P. The male 3 is connected by a connecting member 3a to a drive mechanism (not shown) that imparts to the male 3 a reciprocating vertical movement whereby the male 3 is introduced and removed from the mold 1.
    As best shown in Fig. 9, the sheet of sheet material P comprises a plurality of cuts and creasing lines defining a rectangular base panel P1 having two opposite first sides and two opposite second sides, a pair of first side panels P2 attached to the first two opposite sides, a pair of second side panels P3 attached to the two second opposite sides, and a pair of flaps P4 attached to opposite ends of each of the second side panels P3. The first P2 side panels are longer than the second P3 side panels.
    P4 flaps are subdivided into three sections by parallel creasing lines. The intermediate sections of the flaps P4 have protruding anchors P8 and the base panel P1 has lace openings P9 arranged in inclined positions with respect to the sides of the base panel P1 and adjacent to the corners. The first and second side panels P2, P3 have respective reinforcement fins P5, P6 parallel to the corresponding sides of the base panel P1.
    In some extreme regions of the first side panels P2 there are tail strings P7 that have been deposited by a glue applicator of the box-forming machine just before the sheet of sheet material P has been placed on a mouth of the mold one.
    Fig. 10 shows a box C formed from the sheet of sheet material P of Fig. 9. Box C comprises a bottom formed by the bottom panel P1 of the sheet of sheet material P, two opposite long side walls and two opposite short side walls formed by the first and second side panels P2, P3, respectively, of the sheet of sheet material P, and four corner reinforcing columns formed by
    5
    10
    fifteen

    25
    30
    P4 flap sections conveniently folded. Upper edges of the long and short side walls formed by the first and second side panels P2, P3 are reinforced by the reinforcement fins P5, P6 folded down.
    The ends of the first side panels P2 that form the long side walls are glued to the adjacent sections of the flaps P4 that form the corner reinforcing columns by means of the tail cords P7 shown in Fig. 9. Other parts of the box they are also glued by other tail cords not shown in Fig. 9. The protruding anchors P8 and the lace openings P9 are in the same vertical plane, so that the protruding anchors P8 of the box C are inserted into the openings of P9 socket of another identical C box in stacking situation.
    Returning to Fig. 1, the mold 1 comprises four symmetrical corner groups 2, facing two to two and fixed to two horizontal guides 9 mutually parallel. The corner groups 2 comprise respective base supports 8 including auxiliary support elements 8a, 8b configured to support a plurality of components useful for performing in cooperation with the male 3 functions of bending, pressing and gluing several parts of the sheet of sheet material P to form the box C.
    Two of the corner groups 2 are fixed in adjustable positions to one of the horizontal guides 9 by means of their respective base supports 8 and the other two corner groups 2 are fixed in positions adjustable to the other of the horizontal guides 9 by middle of their respective base supports 8. The horizontal guides 9 are separated from each other by an adjustable distance.
    Thus, the four corner groups 2 delimit a rectangular molding cavity intended to receive inside it the sheet of sheet material P pushed in a downward vertical direction by the male 3 and to form in cooperation with the male 3 the box C by bending and glued several parts of the sheet of sheet material P.
    In Fig. 1, among the aforementioned components associated with the corner groups 2 only those which are relevant for the object of the present invention have been represented, namely: forming elements 4 facing two to two. Each of the corner groups 2 includes one of the forming elements 4 supported on the corresponding base support 8. The corner groups 2 supporting the pairs of mutually facing forming elements 4 are fixed to the same horizontal guide 9.

    As the enlarged view of Fig. 2 best shows, each forming element 4 includes an upper bending section 5 fixed in a stationary position to one of the auxiliary support elements 8a fixed in turn to the base support 8 and a lower molding section 6 connected to a linear actuator 7 also fixed to the auxiliary support element 8a. The upper bending section 5 has a curved or inclined surface in descending ramp towards the inside of the mold 1 to pre-bend the first side panels P2 of the sheet of sheet material P, and a lower molding section 6 that has a vertical surface perpendicular to the horizontal guides 9 to position the first side panels P2 in relation to the box C being formed.
    In the embodiment shown, the linear actuator 7 is a fluid-dynamic cylinder, for example a pneumatic cylinder, comprising a body 12 fixed to the corresponding base support 8, an extensible rod 13 connected to a piston inside the cylinder and a pair of guide rods 14 guided in the body 12 itself. The extensible rod 13 and the guide rods 14 are parallel to the horizontal guides 9 and are fixed to a support plate 15. The lower molding section 6 of the forming element 4 is fixed to this support plate 15. The guide rods 14 prevent rotation of the support plate 15 and the lower molding section 6 about the axis of the extensible rod 13.
    With reference to Figs. 3, 4 and 5, the curved or inclined surfaces of the upper bending sections 5 of the forming elements 4 have lower ends 5a located more inwardly of the mold 1 that are perpendicular to the horizontal guides 9 and which, in the embodiment shown , extend downward defining vertical surfaces. These lower ends 5a of the curved or inclined surfaces of the upper bending sections 5 of each pair of mutually facing forming elements 4 are separated from each other by a first distance D1 greater than an outer width of the box C.
    The lower molding sections 6 are movable by the linear actuators 7 with respect to the base supports 8 in opposite directions parallel to the horizontal guides 9 between a receiving position (Figs. 3 and 4), in which the vertical surfaces of the sections lower shapers 6 of each pair of mutually facing forming elements 4 are separated from each other by the first distance D1, and an active position (Fig. 5), in which the vertical surfaces of the lower shaping sections 6 of each pair of forming elements 4 mutually facing each other are separated from each other by a second distance D2 less than the first distance D1 and equivalent to the outer width of the box C.

    Fig. 3 shows the sheet of sheet material P being introduced into the mold 1 by pushing the male 3 into a first introduction path. Since the mutually facing upper bending sections 5 are separated by the first distance D1 greater than the outer width of the box C to be formed, and since the male 3 has one or more lower pressure surfaces that press down the bottom panel P1 of the sheet of sheet material P, during the first introduction path a pre-bending operation of the first side panels P2 is carried out with respect to the base panel P1 of the sheet of sheet material P by friction of the sheet of sheet material P against the upper bending sections 5 of the forming elements 4 of the corner groups 2 in cooperation with the male 3.
    The second side panels P3 and the flaps P4 are folded to an upright position by other elements not shown from the corner groups 2 before or during the pre-folding of the first side panels P2.
    During the first introduction path and during a subsequent second introduction path the lower molding sections 6 of the mutually facing forming elements 4 remain in the receiving position where they are separated by the first distance D1.
    Fig. 4 shows the sheet of pre-folded sheet material P received between the lower molding sections 6 after the second introduction path while the lower molding sections 6 are arranged in the receiving position and separated by the first distance D1, which It is greater than the outer width of the C box.
    In this position, the first distance D1 is sufficient so that the tail cords P7 deposited on the first side panels P2 of the sheet of sheet material P do not make contact with the flaps P4. This prevents the tail from crawling and ensures a better penetration of the tail into the P4 flaps when a subsequent pressing and pasting operation is performed. In addition, receiving the sheet of pre-folded sheet material P between the lower molding sections 6 while these are separated by the first distance D1 significantly reduces the friction of the first side panels P2 with the lower molding sections 6 during the second introduction path, which prevents distortions in the edges between the base panel P1 and the first side panels P2.

    after a second introduction path and after the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 have been moved by the linear actuators 7 to the active position, in which the lower molding sections 6 are separated by the corresponding second distance D2 to the outer width of the box C. The movement of the lower molding sections 6 from the receiving position to the active position performs a pressing and gluing operation of the areas carrying the tail laces P7 of the first side panels P2 a the flaps P4 of the sheet of laminar material P in cooperation with the surface surfaces of the male 3 against which the flaps 4 rest.
    Figs. 6, 7 and 8 show the operation of mutually facing forming elements 4 belonging to a mold 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention, which is identical to that described above in relation to Figs. 1 to 5 except that here the upper bending section 5 of each of the forming elements 4 is fixed or attached to the corresponding lower molding section 6, so that both are displaced together by the corresponding linear actuator 7 between a receiving position (Figs. 6 and 7), in which they are separated by a first distance D1 greater than the outer width of the box C to be formed, and an active position (Fig. 8), in which they are separated by a second distance D2 equivalent to the outer width of the box C to be formed.
    Fig. 6 shows the sheet of sheet material P being introduced into the mold 1 by pushing the male 3 into a first introduction path during which the upper bending sections 5 and the lower molding sections 6 of the mutually facing forming elements 4 they are separated by the first distance D1 greater than the outer width of the box C to be formed.
    Fig. 7 shows the sheet of pre-folded sheet material P received between the lower molding sections 6 after a subsequent second introduction path while the upper bending sections 5 and the lower molding sections 6 remain disposed in the receiving position separated by the first distance D1.
    Fig. 8 shows the sheet of pre-folded sheet material P received between the lower molding sections 6 after the second introduction path and after the upper bending sections 5 and the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 have been moved by the linear actuators 7 to the active position, in which the lower molding sections 6 are separated by the second

    distance D2 corresponding to the outer width of the box C, to perform a pressing and gluing operation of the areas carrying the tail laces P7 of the first side panels P2 to the flaps P4 of the sheet of sheet material P in cooperation with Suffering surfaces of the male 3 against which the flaps 4 rest.
    The fact that during the pressing and gluing operation shown in Fig. 8 the upper bending sections 5 are moved from the receiving position, in which they are separated by the first distance D1, to the active position, in which they are separated by the second distance D2 is irrelevant since after the second introduction path and during the pressing and pasting operation there is no interaction between the sheet of sheet material P and the upper bending sections 5.
    Fig. 11 shows a mold 1 for box forming machine by folding and gluing sheets of sheet material according to yet another embodiment of the present invention. The mold 1 shown in Fig. 11 is useful for forming a box C as shown in Fig. 15, which is obtained by bending and gluing a sheet of sheet material P as shown in Fig. 14.
    The sheet of sheet material P shown in Fig. 14 comprises a plurality of cuts and creasing lines defining a rectangular base panel P1 having two opposite first sides and two opposite second sides, a pair of first side panels P2 attached to the first two opposite sides, a pair of second P3 side panels attached to the two opposite second sides, and a pair of P4 flaps. However, unlike the sheet of sheet material described above in relation to Fig. 9, here the flaps are attached to opposite ends of each of the first side panels P2 and are not subdivided into sections. The first side panels P2 comprise openings P10 adjacent to the base panel 1.
    The second side panels P3 and the flaps P4 have slightly inclined edges with respect to the first and second opposite sides of the base panel P1. In some extreme regions of the second side panels P3 there are tail strings P7 that have been deposited by a glue applicator of the box-forming machine just before the sheet of sheet material P has been placed on a mouth of the mold one.
    Fig. 15 shows a box C formed from the sheet of sheet material P of Fig. 14. Box C comprises a bottom formed by the bottom panel P1 of the sheet of sheet material P, two opposite long side walls formed by the first panels

    sides P2 of the sheet of sheet material P and two opposite short side walls formed by the second side panels P3 of the sheet of sheet material P. The flaps P4 attached to the first side panels P2 forming the long side walls are folded and arranged inside the second P3 side panels that form the short side walls. The long side walls have ventilation openings adjacent to the base panel 1 formed by the openings P10 of the first side panels P2.
    The ends of the second side panels P3 forming the short side walls are glued to the flaps P4 by the tail cords P7 shown in Fig. 14. Both the long side walls formed by the first side panels P2 and the short side walls formed by the second side panels P3 are slightly inclined towards the box C with respect to the perpendicular to the base panel P1, whereby the mouth of the box C is slightly smaller than the base panel P1.
    Returning to Fig. 11, in this embodiment the mold 1 comprises four symmetrical corner groups 2, facing two to two and fixed to two horizontal guides 9 mutually parallel. The corner groups 2 comprise respective base supports 8 configured to support a plurality of components useful for performing in cooperation with the male 3 functions of bending, pressing and gluing several parts of the sheet of sheet material P to form the box C.
    Two of the corner groups 2 are fixed in adjustable positions to one of the horizontal guides 9 by means of their respective base supports 8 and the other two corner groups 2 are fixed in positions adjustable to the other of the horizontal guides 9 by middle of their respective base supports 8. The horizontal guides 9 are separated from each other by an adjustable distance. Thus, the four corner groups 2 delimit a rectangular molding cavity intended to receive inside a sheet of sheet material P as shown in Fig. 14 pushed in a downward vertical direction by the male 3 and to form in cooperation with male 3 a box C as shown in Fig. 15 by bending and gluing several parts of the sheet of sheet material P.
    As best shown in Fig. 12, each of the corner groups 2 includes a forming element 4 supported on the corresponding base support 8, and the forming element 4 includes an upper bending section 5 fixed in a stationary position to the base support 8 and a lower molding section 6 connected to a linear actuator 7.

    However, unlike the mold 1 described above in relation to Fig. 1, here the corner groups 2 supporting the pairs of mutually facing forming elements 4 are fixed to different horizontal guides 9, and the horizontal guides 9 are interposed between the lower molding section 6 and the linear actuator 7 of each forming element 4.
    To overcome this circumstance, each linear actuator 7 is connected to the corresponding lower molding section 6 by means of lower and upper connecting arms 10, 11 (better shown in Fig. 13) located below and above the corresponding horizontal guide 9 More particularly, the linear actuator 7, which is for example a fluid-dynamic cylinder, comprises a body 12 fixed to the corresponding base support 8, an extensible rod 13 connected to a piston inside the cylinder and a pair of rods of guide 14 guided in the body itself 12. The extensible rod 13 and the guide rod 14 are fixed to a support plate 15 located on the outer side of the horizontal guide 9 in relation to the mold 1, and the lower connecting arms and upper 10, 11 have one end fixed to the support plate 15 and another end fixed to the lower molding section 6.
    Another difference with respect to the mold 1 described above in relation to Fig. 1 is that in the mold 1 of Fig. 11 the upper bending section 5 and the lower molding section 6 of each forming element 4 are provided for bending, pressing and glue the second side panels P3 of the sheet of sheet material P instead of the first side panels P2. Thus, the upper bending section 5 has a curved or inclined surface in descending ramp towards the inside of the mold 1 to pre-bend the second side panels P3 of the sheet of sheet material P, and a lower molding section 6 that has a vertical surface parallel to the horizontal guides 9 to position the second side panels P3 in relation to the box C being formed.
    Corner groups 2 of mold 1 of Figs. 11, 12 and 13 also include bending elements 16 perpendicular to the horizontal guides 9 provided to bend the first lateral portions P2 of the sheet of sheet material P and auxiliary benders 17 parallel to the horizontal guides 9, arranged adjacent and at a greater height than the forming elements 4, to fold the flaps P4 of the sheet of sheet material P before the second side portions P3 have been pre-folded by the upper bending sections 5 of the forming elements 4 causing that in the box C the soups P4 they remain inside the second P3 side panels.

    As shown in Fig. 13, the upper bending sections 5 of the mutually facing forming elements 4 are separated by a first distance D1, which is greater than an outer length of the box C to be formed, and the lower molding sections 6 are moved by the linear actuators 7 in opposite directions perpendicular to the horizontal guides 9 between a receiving position (Fig. 13), in which the lower molding sections 6 are separated by a first distance D1 greater than the outer length of the box C , and an active position (not shown) in which the lower molding sections 6 are separated by a second distance D2 equivalent to the outer length of the box C.
    In a first introduction path (situation not shown), during which the sheet of sheet material P is introduced into the mold 1 by pushing the male 3, the upper bending sections 5 of the mutually facing forming elements 4 perform an operation of pre-bending of the second side panels P3 with respect to the base panel P1 of the sheet of sheet material P. The first side panels P2 and the flaps P4 are folded to an upright position by the benders 16 and the auxiliary benders 17, respectively, before or during the pre-bending of the second P3 side panels.
    In the situation shown in Fig. 13, the sheet of pre-folded sheet material P is received between the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 after a second introduction path while the lower molding sections 6 are arranged in the position of reception and separated by the first distance D1 greater than the outer length of the box C.
    From the situation shown in Fig. 13, the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 are moved by the linear actuators 7 to the active position, in which the lower molding sections 6 are separated by the corresponding second distance D2 to the outer length of the box C. The movement of the lower molding sections 6 from the receiving position to the active position performs an operation of pressing and pasting the areas carrying the tail laces P7 of the second side panels P3 a the flaps P4 of the sheet of laminar material P in cooperation with the surface surfaces of the male 3 against which the flaps 4 rest.
    The vertical surfaces of the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 include a slightly inclined portion into the mold 1 of

    from bottom to top forming an angle between 1 and 10 degrees from the vertical to confer to the short side walls of the box C formed by the second side panels P3 of the sheet of sheet material P the mentioned inclination with respect to the perpendicular to the panel background P1.
    The effects and advantages of the mold 1 described in relation to Figs. 11, 12 and 13 are analogous to those explained above with respect to the mold 1 described in relation to Figs. 1 to 5
    In an alternative embodiment (not shown), the mold 1 comprises four corner elements 2 including respective forming elements 4 configured and arranged in a manner analogous to that described in relation to Figs. 12, 13 and 14, except that the upper bending section 5 of each of the forming elements 4 is fixed or joined to the corresponding lower molding section 6, so that both are displaced together by the corresponding linear actuator 7 between the position of Reception and active position.
    On the other hand it should be noted that in the embodiments described in relation to Figs. 1 to 5 and with Figs. 6 to 8, the vertical surfaces of the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 could optionally include a slightly inclined portion into the mold 1 from bottom to top forming an angle between 1 and 10 degrees from the vertical to confer to The long side walls of the box C are inclined with respect to the perpendicular to the bottom panel P1 in case the sheet of sheet material P was configured for this purpose.
    Also, in the embodiment described in relation to Figs. 11, 12 and 13, the vertical surfaces of the lower molding sections 6 of the forming elements 4 could optionally not include the slightly inclined portion to confer to the short side walls of the box C a position perpendicular to the bottom panel P1 in case the sheet of sheet material P was configured for that purpose.
    The mold 1 according to any one of the embodiments of the present invention contemplated is useful for implementing a method of forming boxes by folding and gluing sheets of sheet material comprising the steps of:
    - insert a sheet of sheet material P by pushing a male 3 into a mold 1 defined by four symmetrical corner groups 2 facing two to two;
    - pre-folding the sheet of sheet material P during a first introduction path by means of upper bending sections 5 of elements
    shapers 4 of the corner groups 2 in cooperation with the male 3, the upper bending sections 5 being mutually facing each other and separated by a first distance D1 greater than an outer width or length of a box C to be formed during the first introduction path;
