Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bottling plant, in particular for liquid and pasty substances, for example foods
  • From the DE 197 00 857 A1 is a filling system for food known, which identifies a turntable on which the containers to be filled are arranged and are supplied in clocked manner to the various stations of a bottling plant.
  • a transport device with plates for a filling plant for food is known, wherein the transport device is mounted on a support plate, which may have an additional cover plate.
  • a disadvantage of both constructions is that the cleaning of the filling system in the area below the transport device is possible only with increased effort due to the arranged under the transport device drives and guides for the individual stations.
  • the height of such bottling plants is so high that for filling the magazines for the containers, sealing lid and Slip lid must always be resorted to climbing aids.
  • the individual elements of a bottling plant is on the DE 197 00 857 A1 referenced in which both the Becherentstapelung, the filling with dosing, a station for attaching the sealing lid and a sealing station and a station for attaching the slip lid is described in detail.
  • US-B-6,266,948 (D1) is a packaging machine known with a horizontally arranged transport device for containers to be filled.
  • the transport device is mounted on a front side of a vertical support wall of a machine frame, wherein the space below the transport device is substantially free of further installations.
  • On the machine next to the transport device additional attachments are attached. These additional attachments can be attached either to the support frame or to the transport device.
  • the invention is based on the basic idea to provide a machine in balcony construction, in which the transport device is attached on one side to a support wall.
  • the transport device can be arranged lower than in a table construction, so that the height for the magazine filling is lower. This makes it possible to dispense with climbing aids. This is supported by the use of inclined magazines, as they can be filled both from above and in the lower area from the side.
  • a horizontal cup feed can be provided, whereby the filling of the feed is considerably simplified.
  • the stations on the transport device performing a vertical force such as the sealing station and the Stülpdeckelstation are connected in frictional connection with the transport device.
  • the storage of the drive shaft for the sealing station and the Stülpdeckelstation is also provided in the outer guide.
  • the drive shaft for the sealing station is hollow so that vacuum or compressed air can be transferred to the suction device or piston.
  • electrical cables for heating the sealing plates can be led into their immediate vicinity. This has the advantage that exposed cables or hoses are largely avoided.
  • the sealing station can be turned up over the carrier, which facilitates the replacement of the plates.
  • the drive shafts for the lifting station of the containers, the destacking of the containers and other stations are guided by the supporting wall and the drive takes place on the back of the supporting wall. Due to the rotational movements of the drive shafts of stations that sweep only a partial circle, even simple pneumatic drives can be used, which are only in the end positions in a defined position.
  • the filling station can either be attached to the supporting wall or on the transport device.
  • the bottling plant comprises a machine frame 1 with a vertical support wall 2 and horizontal supports 3 and a sloping from the support wall 2 drain plate 4th
  • a horizontally oriented transport device 5 On the support wall 2, a horizontally oriented transport device 5 is attached, by means of which container 6 are transported past by a substantially horizontally arranged container magazine 7 at a filling station 8. The transport takes place in the horizontal direction at the front of the support wall 2 along.
  • the container 6 is sealed by first removing a sealing lid 9 from a magazine 10 and placing it on the container 6. Subsequently, a sealing station is provided, in which the sealing lid 9 is firmly connected to the container 6. The sealing station 11 heats the container 6 and / or sealing lid 9 to about 130 ° C. and then presses the sealing lid 9 firmly against the container 6. This results in an airtight connection.
  • the sealing station 11 is another station for attaching a slip lid 12 to the sealed container 6.
  • the slip lid 12 is removed from a magazine 13 and pressed onto the container 6.
  • the transport device 5 is surrounded by a lining 16 which is fastened with supports 17 supported on the supporting wall 2 and the supports 3.
  • the transport device 5 can also be supported on one of the carriers and vertical forces can be absorbed (not shown). By means of this support, the torques to be accommodated in the supporting wall 2 are reduced from the unilateral fastening of the transporting device 5.
  • the transport device 5 shown in more detail in Fig. 2 comprises two along the support wall 2 extending lateral guide members 21, 22, wherein the two guide parts are spaced apart and laterally guide plates 23 for receiving the container.
  • the support wall 2 comprises a mounting plate 24 and a cover plate 25, wherein the mounting plate 24 receives the forces and moments and the cover plate 25 provides the cleaning requirements appropriate surface.
  • the cover plate 25 is formed obliquely below the transport device 5 and thus forms the drain plates 4, on which the cleaning liquid runs off and is thus transported away from the support wall 2.
  • the front guide 22 is supported exclusively on the guide wall 2 facing the guide 21, it is of course also possible to support the front guide 22 on the support wall 2, as shown later in Fig. 5.
  • the front and the rear guide part 21, 22 are non-positively connected to each other and that is when acting on the transport device 5 vertical forces. This is the case in particular in the sealing station 11 and the slip lid station 12.
  • Fig. 2 is also shown that the transport device 5 is driven by a arranged on the back of the support wall 2 drive 26, including a drive shaft 27 and gears 28 are provided.
  • the gears 28 are arranged and supported in the guides 21, 22 and drive the carrier plates 23 for the container 6 at.
  • the sealing station 11 is shown schematically.
  • the sealing station 11 as the transport device 5 is attached to the support wall 2 and only has a support 31 on the front guide 22.
  • the sealing station 11 comprises sealing plates 32, which are pressed in the vertical direction, ie towards the transport device 5, under high pressure onto the container 6.
  • a compressed air supply in the carrier 33, on which the Sealing plates 32 are attached the necessary pressing force is applied.
  • a cable feed 34 may be provided for heating the sealing plate 32, which is guided by the carrier 33 from the back of the support wall 2 to the sealing plate 32.
  • the sealing plates 32 are pivotable about the carrier 33, a simple replacement of the sealing plates 32 is possible if they are dirty or worn.
  • the sealing plate 32 is rotated about the longitudinal axis of the carrier 33, so that in contrast to previous sealing stations with pure vertical guides a simpler exchange is possible.
  • Fig. 3 is further shown on the back of the support wall 2, a drive 35 for the sealing station 11, wherein the drive 35 causes the pivoting of the sealing plates 32 about the longitudinal axis of the carrier 33.
  • this pivoting can also be done manually, since the replacement or cleaning of the sealing plates takes place outside the clocking of the transport device.
  • Fig. 4 describes the manner in which the removal of a slip lid from a magazine.
  • a slip-lid other material can be removed from the magazine, such as sealing plates, cutlery, leaflets or labels.
  • a shaft 41 mounted on the guide 41 extends transversely across the transport device 5. Via the shaft 41, a rotational movement is initiated by the angle ⁇ .
  • Grippers 43 which remove material 44 from a magazine 45 in an upper position and place material on the container 6 in a lower position, are fastened to a further shaft 42 spaced apart in the horizontal direction. Upon removal, the stacked material is singulated, i. For example, only one slip lid is removed.
  • the magazine 45 is arranged obliquely, so that the material 44 does not fall out even when the top 45.1 is open. This allows the material to be separated in the stack from the front, i. from the top 45.1 ago, are supplied.
  • This magazine can also be used with the machine shown in Fig. 1, in which case the long path of filling the material 44 from above into the bar magazines is eliminated.
  • the shaft 41 is connected to the shaft 42 via a lever 47, so that the shaft 42 is rotated around the shaft 41 with a radius R when torque is introduced from the rear side of the support wall 2, see also FIG. 5.
  • lever 48 connected to the shaft 42 is moved with the rotational movement of the lever 47 by the angle ⁇ with respect to the shaft 42.
  • This can be done by a cam, not shown, or by an articulated joint, not shown, or by other means known in the art.
  • the cam or other mechanical positive guidance of the shaft 42 while rotating about the shaft 41 about the longitudinal axis of the shaft 42 rotating lever may also be mounted in front of the support wall.
