Abstract

The invention concerns an arrangement for a sampling system for dairy facilities, wherein a collection vessel 1 can be connected by a line or passage 4 emerging from a bottom opening 2 to a sampling vessel 5 which is detachably arranged at a higher level than said bottom opening, wherein said line or passage extends into the sampling vessel 5 from above and emerges near its bottom. What is new is that the line or passage 4, 12, 19 between the collection vessel 1 and the sampling vessel 5 is provided, at a point situated higher than its emergence into the sampling vessel, with an opening 28 having a smaller area than said emergence 21. <IMAGE>

Description

- 8963403-9 10 15 20 25 30 35 'diskledning 8b 2 ordning, som förhindrar att samlings- och provkärlen verkar som kommunicerande kärl och underlättar effektivg diskning och tömning. - 8963403-9 10 15 20 25 30 35 'washing line 8b 2 order, which prevents the collection and test vessels from acting as communicating vessels and facilitates efficient washing and emptying.

Det väsentligen kännetecknande för anordningen enligt uppfinningen ligger däri, att ledningen eller passagen w mellan samlingskärlet och provkärlet vid en punkt belägen högre än dess mynning i provkärlet är försedd med en öpp- ning med mindre area än nämnda mynning.The essential characteristic of the device according to the invention lies in the fact that the conduit or passage w between the collecting vessel and the test vessel at a point located higher than its mouth in the test vessel is provided with an opening with a smaller area than said mouth.

Uppfinningen kommer i det följande att närmare be- skrivas med hänvisning till den bifogade ritningen. På ritningen visas ett provkärl med tillhörande lock- och hållareorgan i genomskärning och antyds enbart schematiskt och i mindre skala övriga i systemet ingående delar.The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawing. The drawing shows a test vessel with associated lid and holding means in cross section and is indicated only schematically and on a smaller scale the other parts included in the system.

I systemet ingår ett samlingskärl l, vid sin botten försett med ett utlopp 2, som via en ledning 4 står 1 förbindelse med ett som helhet med 5 betecknat prov- kärl.The system includes a collecting vessel 1, provided at its bottom with an outlet 2, which via a line 4 is connected to a test vessel designated as a whole by 5.

Samlingskärlets bottenutlopp 2 kan via en ventil 3 även sättas i förbindelse med en ledning 6 för bortled- ning av mjölk till en samlingstank eller liknande.The bottom outlet 2 of the collecting vessel can also be connected via a valve 3 to a line 6 for discharging milk to a collecting tank or the like.

Samlingskärlets l inre är upptill via en ventil 7 förbindbart med en vakuumledning 8, med atmosfären eller Upptill återfinnes även ett mjölkinlopp 9, som står i förbindelse med icke visade mjölkningsorgan.The interior of the collecting vessel 1 is at the top via a valve 7 connectable to a vacuum line 8, with the atmosphere or At the top there is also a milk inlet 9, which is in communication with milking means (not shown).

Provkärlet består av ett fast, lock bildande hållar- organ 10 och det egentliga kärlet eller behållaren ll, som är öppet uppåt. Vid hållarorganet 10 finns två genom- gående kanaler 12,13, varav den ena 12 står i direkt för- bindelse med ledningen 4 mot samlingskärlets bottenutlopp 2 och den andra 13 via en ventil 14 kan sättas i för- bindelse med vakuum via ledningen 8a med atmosfären, eller med diskledningen 8c.The sample vessel consists of a solid, lid-forming holding member 10 and the actual vessel or container 11, which is open upwards. At the holding member 10 there are two through-going channels 12, 13, one of which 12 is in direct connection with the line 4 towards the bottom outlet 2 of the collecting vessel and the other 13 can be connected via a valve 14 via vacuum via the line 8a with atmosphere, or with disk line 8c.

Vid hållarorganet 10 är en nedåtskjutande fläns an- ordnad och denna har invändiga utsprång 15, som är av- sedda att vid vridning av kärlet samverka med utvändiga öron 16 vid kärlet ll för att hålla dettas övre kant i -anliggning mot en vid hâllarorganet anordnad tätningsring l7._ 10 15 20 25 30 35 8600403- 9 3 Utefter ena sidan av kärlet ll finns en mellanvägg 18, som avgränsar en passage 19, som invid kärlbottnen 20 har en mynning 21 bildad av en spalt mellan den passagen avgränsande väggen och kärlbottnen. I Väggen 18 och passagen 19 är så lokaliserade att passagen, när kärlet ll är placerat i hållarorganet l0, befinner sig mitt för nedre mynningen hos kanalen 12 så att passagen 19 bildar en fortsättning på ledningen 4 och kanalen 12.At the holding member 10 a downwardly projecting flange is arranged and this has internal projections 15, which are intended to co-operate with outer ears 16 at the vessel 11 when rotating the vessel in order to keep its upper edge in abutment against a sealing ring arranged at the holding member. Along one side of the vessel 11 there is a partition wall 18, which delimits a passage 19, which next to the vessel bottom 20 has an orifice 21 formed by a gap between the wall delimiting the passage and the vessel bottom. The wall 18 and the passage 19 are so located that the passage, when the vessel 11 is placed in the holding member 10, is located opposite the lower mouth of the channel 12 so that the passage 19 forms a continuation of the conduit 4 and the channel 12.

Vid provkärlet finns ett överfyllningsskydd i form av en även som ventilkropp tjänande flottör 22. Flottören har ett skaft 23, som sträcker sig upp genom kanalen 13 och uppbär ett tvärstycke 24. Kanalen 13 övergår upptill i ett vidare parti 13' och_tvärstycket ingriper med kanten mellan det vidare och det smalare partiet och hâlles därigenom i avsett läge. När provkärlet fylles till en viss nivå kommer flottören 22 att förskjutas uppåt, varvid dess översida 25 tätande ingriper med en tätningsring 26 anordnad vid hållarorganets undersida 27.At the test vessel there is an overfill protection in the form of a float 22 also serving as a valve body. The float has a shaft 23, which extends up through the channel 13 and carries a crosspiece 24. The channel 13 merges at the top into a wider portion 13 'and the crosspiece engages the edge between the wider and the narrower portion and thereby held in the intended position. When the sample vessel is filled to a certain level, the float 22 will be displaced upwards, its upper side 25 sealingly engaging with a sealing ring 26 arranged at the underside 27 of the holding member.

Flottörens översida 25 verkar, när diskvätska in- föres genom passagen 13 från ledningen 8c, som ett spridar- organ och säkerställer därigenom att hela kärlets insida pâspolas diskvätska.The upper side 25 of the float, when dishwashing liquid is introduced through the passage 13 from the line 8c, acts as a spreading member, thereby ensuring that the entire inside of the vessel is washed with dishwashing liquid.

Enligt uppfinningen är i ledningen mellan samlings- kärlet och provkärlet en öppning anordnad och denna är vid det visade utförandet bildad på följande sätt.According to the invention, an opening is arranged in the line between the collecting vessel and the sample vessel and this is formed in the following embodiment in the embodiment shown.

Mellan hållarorganets 10 undersida 27 där kanalen 12 mynnar och övre änden av väggen 18, som avgränsar passagen 19, är en spalt 28 anordnad. I det visade utförandet är väggen 18 lägre än kärlet ll. Alternativt kan spalten vara bildad genom att en fördjupning anordnats i hållar- organets undersida 27. Spalten 28 har en effektiv öppnings- area, som är mindre än arean hos passagens 19 vid bottnen 20 belägna mynning 21.Between the underside 27 of the holding member 10 where the channel 12 opens and the upper end of the wall 18, which delimits the passage 19, a gap 28 is arranged. In the embodiment shown, the wall 18 is lower than the vessel 11. Alternatively, the gap may be formed by arranging a recess in the underside 27 of the holding member 27. The gap 28 has an effective opening area which is smaller than the area of the mouth 21 located at the bottom 20 at the bottom 20.

Under mjölkningsfasen samt blandnings- och provtag- ningsfasen är ventilen 3 stängd och under mjölkningsfasen råder vakuum i såväl samlingskärlet som i provkärlet.During the milking phase and the mixing and sampling phase, the valve 3 is closed and during the milking phase there is a vacuum in both the collection vessel and the sample vessel.

Vid provtagning efter mjölkningsfasen följer först pßaøo4os-9 10 15 20 25 30 35 4 blandningsfasen, varvid luft lâtes inströmma i det under " vakuum stående samlingskärlet l via ventilen 14 vilken öppnas mot atmosfären, varvid luft inströmmar i det under vakuum stående samlingskärlet l via ventilen 14, kanalen 13, provkärlet 5 och ledningen 4. 7 7 Under blandningsfasen efterföljande provtagningsfas är ventilen 7 öppen mot atmosfären, varvid samlingskärlet står under atmosfärtryck. Provkärlet 5 är däremot via ventilen 14 förbunden med vakuumledningen 8a. När ventilen 14 öppnas mot vakuum kommer mjölk att sugas från samlings- kärlet 1 till provkärlet 5, via ledningen Ä, kanalen 12 och passagen 19. Eftersom arean hos passagemynningen 21 7 är större än arean hos spalten 28 vid passagens 19 övre ände kommer mjölken huvudsakligen att utströmma vid mynningen 21.When sampling after the milking phase, the mixing phase first follows the mixing phase, in which air is allowed to flow into the under-vacuum collecting vessel 1 via the valve 14 which opens towards the atmosphere, whereby air flows into the under-collecting collecting vessel 1 via the valve. 14, the duct 13, the sample vessel 5 and the line 4. 7 During the mixing phase following the sampling phase, the valve 7 is open to the atmosphere, the collecting vessel being under atmospheric pressure, whereas the sample vessel 5 is connected to the vacuum line 8a via the valve 14. When the valve 14 is opened to vacuum to be sucked from the collecting vessel 1 to the sample vessel 5, via the line Ä, the channel 12 and the passage 19. Since the area of the passage mouth 21 7 is larger than the area of the gap 28 at the upper end of the passage 19, the milk will mainly flow out at the mouth 21.

När provkärlet fyllts till avsedd nivå påverkas flottören 22, som tillstänger passagen 13 och därigenom stoppar flödet. I när provkàrlefs behållare 11 skall lösgöras från hållarorganet 10 i och för uttömning av innehållet öppnas ventilen 14 mot atmosfären, varvid vakuumet i provkärlet elimineras. Eftersom mjölknivån i samlingskärlet 1 be- finner sig lägre än mjölknivân i provkärlet och både samlingskärlet och provkärlet står under atmosfärtryck skulle man kunna befara att innehållet 1 provkärlet genom hävertverkan återgick till samlingskârlet. Genom att enligt uppfinningen en öppning, nämligen spalten 28 'är anordnad i ledningsförbindelsen mellan de båda kärleno kommer vätskepelaren att delas av inströmmande luft vid ovan nämnda spalt 28, och förhindras återgång av mjölk mot samlingskärlet.When the sample vessel is filled to the intended level, the float 22 is actuated, which closes the passage 13 and thereby stops the flow. When the container 11 of the sample vessel is to be detached from the holding member 10 in order to discharge the contents, the valve 14 is opened towards the atmosphere, whereby the vacuum in the sample vessel is eliminated. Since the milk level in the collection vessel 1 is lower than the milk level in the sample vessel and both the collection vessel and the sample vessel are under atmospheric pressure, it could be feared that the contents of the sample vessel returned to the collection vessel by siphoning. Because according to the invention an opening, namely the gap 28 'is arranged in the pipe connection between the two vessels, the liquid column will be divided by inflowing air at the above-mentioned gap 28, and the return of milk to the collecting vessel is prevented.

Under diskningsfasen införes i såväl samlingskärlet l som i provkärlet 5 diskvatten genom ventilen 7 resp 14 från ledningen Bb resp 8c och bortskaffas diskvattnet från provkärlet 5 via passagen 19, kanalen 12, ledningen 4 till ventilen 3, genom vilken även samlingskärlet tömmes mot ledningen 6. När diskflödet avstannar tömmes provkärlet 5 via passage 19, kanal 12, ledning 4 med hjälp 10 15 20 25 8000403-9 av vakuum i ledningen 6.During the washing phase, in both the collecting vessel 1 and in the sample vessel 5, washing water is introduced through the valve 7 and 14 from the line Bb and 8c, respectively, and the washing water is disposed of from the sample vessel 5 via the passage 19, the channel 12, the line 4 to the valve 3. When the washing flow stops, the sample vessel 5 is emptied via passage 19, channel 12, line 4 by means of vacuum in the line 6.

Vid tömnningen av provkärlet i de fall man önskar återföra provkvantiteten mjölk till samlingskârlet 1 sättes samlingskärlet under vakuum och förbindes prov- kärlet 5 via ventilen 14 med atmosfären. Mjölken suges därvid genom passagen 19, kanalen 12 och ledningen 4 till samlingskärlet 1. Skillnaden i area mellan den nedre passagemynningen 21 och den upptill anordnade spalten 28 gör att vattnet resp mjölken avgår genom passagemynningen 21. Den genom spalten 28 passerande luftkvantiteten på- verkar ej negativt tömningsförloppet.When emptying the sample vessel, in cases where it is desired to return the sample quantity of milk to the collection vessel 1, the collection vessel is placed under vacuum and the sample vessel 5 is connected via the valve 14 to the atmosphere. The milk is then sucked through the passage 19, the channel 12 and the line 4 to the collecting vessel 1. The difference in area between the lower passage orifice 21 and the column 28 arranged at the top means that the water or milk exits through the passage orifice 21. The air quantity passing through the gap 28 does not affect negative emptying process.

Det är uppenbart att anordningen enligt uppfinningen kan varieras och modifieras på flera sätt. I stället för en inuti provkärlet anordnad öppning 28 skulle man i och för sig kunna placera denna utanför provkärlet. En sådan placering skulle dock medföra förluster vid fyllning av provkärlet genom att luft kom att insugas där och reducera sugverkan på mjölken.It is obvious that the device according to the invention can be varied and modified in several ways. Instead of an opening 28 arranged inside the test vessel, it would be possible in itself to place this outside the test vessel. Such a placement would, however, entail losses when filling the sample vessel by air being sucked in there and reducing the suction effect on the milk.

Genom placeringen inuti provkärlet elimineras mjölk- spill och reduceras risken för att främmande ämnen skall inkomma 1 systemet.By placing it inside the test vessel, milk waste is eliminated and the risk of foreign substances entering the system is reduced.

Placeringen av öppning 28 mellan hållaren l0 och flaskan ll är gynnsam även med hänsyn till att den lätt kan hållas ren vid borttagning av flaskan ll.The location of the opening 28 between the holder 10 and the bottle 11 is favorable also in view of the fact that it can be easily kept clean when removing the bottle 11.

Uppfinningen får ej anses begränsat till det be- skrivna och på ritningen visade, utan kan modifieras på ett flertal sätt inom ramen för efterföljande_patentkrav.The invention may not be considered limited to what is described and shown in the drawing, but can be modified in a number of ways within the scope of the following patent claims.
