In Fig. 1, the beverage stowage unit 1 of implementing 1 example of the present invention (having the circulation receiving slit) is shown.In the figure, symbol 2 is the liquid bin for the dashpot of storage beverage, symbol 3 is for carrying out the pasteurization device of pasteurization to beverage, symbol 4 is a transfer valve, symbol 5 is high level tank, and symbol 6 is a change-over valve, and symbol 7 is the filling groove of plugger, they are connected in series by liquor charging equipment 12, constitute liquor charging path 11.Connect commutation return line 14 at change-over valve 6, constitute the commutation cycle path 13 that beverage is turned back to bin 2 from liquor charging path 11.Be provided for cooling off the cooling mechanism 15 that turns back to the beverage of bin 2 by commutation cycle path 13 at commutation return line 14.The structure of above-mentioned path and each constitution equipment is identical with beverage stowage unit in the past with function, so detailed.In order to implement the present invention, in the position in the downstream of the change-over valve 6 of liquor charging equipment 12 transfer valve 16 is set, by pipeline 18 and circulation receiving slit 17 this valve is connected to change-over valve 6, make to be connected to commutation return line 14.The structure of transfer valve 16 and circulation receiving slit 17 and function also can be known structure and function, so, detailed.
In the beverage stowage unit 1 of above-mentioned formation, when the filling operation carrying out beverage is filled in the container b, dashpot is that the beverages in the bin 2 are delivered in the high level tank 5 by pump 25 after the pasteurization device 3 by liquor charging path 11 carries out pasteurization, delivers in the filling usefulness groove 7 of rotation by change-over valve 6 and the transfer valve 16 newly established from this high level tank 5.Filling is filled to beverage wherein in the container b while rotating by filling valve 8 with groove.Path from change-over valve 6 to filling with groove 7 constitutes filling path 20 in the present embodiment.
(when filling stops)
Operation when stopping as filling can be considered these the 2 kinds of circulations of commutation cycle and reciprocation cycle.Commutation cycle be the past with regard to already present consideration method, being bin 2 from dashpot refluxes the liquid of liquor charging from being located at plugger fwd change-over valve, by commutation return line 14, be circulated again into bin 2.Certainly in commutation cycle, the liquid holdup that change-over valve is later, temperature descends.And in reciprocation cycle of the present invention, the liquid of the change-over valve downstream of being detained in commutation cycle (when watching in circulating path) also is recycled.The moment of carrying out this reciprocation cycle does not specify.Can implement according to the temperature of the liquid that is detained, also can preestablish timer.In addition, as the satisfied temperature condition, then can consider to implement 1 time before being about to filling, the moment after also can stopping from filling on the contrary continues to implement reciprocation cycle.
(commutation cycle)
Because be provided with circulation receiving slit 17, so, as worrying germ, then make the circulation receiving slit enter into ground, commutation cycle path design commutation cycle path.As a spot of raffinate there not being the worry of germ etc., then do not need the circulation receiving slit is contained in the commutation cycle path.Illustrate that as an example circulation receiving slit enters into the occasion in the commutation cycle path here.
When filling operation stops, switching transfer valve 16, disconnect change-over valve 6 and filling with being connected of groove 7, change-over valve 6 is connected with circulation receiving slit 17.Therefore, the beverage of carrying from bin 2 flows to circulation receiving slit 17 by pasteurization device 3, high level tank 5, change-over valve 6, transfer valve 16.Beverage in the circulation receiving slit 17 turns back to bin 2 by change-over valve 6, cooling mechanism 15.Commutation cycle route when more than stopping for the filling of plugger operation.
(reciprocation cycle)
When reciprocation cycle, switch transfer valve 16, connect circulation receiving slit 17 and filling groove 7.At this moment, the filling valve 8 of plugger is in closed condition.Then, (in this occasion, the gas that is used to pressurize is not limited to nitrogen, also can be gases such as air and carbon dioxide with pressurizeing in the groove 7 from the supply source of not shown nitrogen nitrogen gas pressure to be added to filling under this state.The kind of gas is according to the selections such as character of the liquid of filling.)。Like this, be stranded in the pipe arrangement 21,22 in transfer valve 16 downstreams and filling and be recovered to circulation receiving slit 17 with the beverages in the groove 7.In addition, the liquid of being carried by pump 26 this moment is recycled to bin 2 from change-over valve 6 by commutation return line 14.Be recovered to This move in the circulation receiving slit and drop to predetermined value in filling with the temperature of the liquid in the groove and implement when following, the occasion higher than predetermined value in its temperature can not reclaim yet, but after a part being discharged with geat from filling, begins the filling in the container.Then, as be stranded in the pipe arrangement 21,22 in transfer valve 16 downstreams and filling drains in fact with the beverages in the groove 7, then switch transfer valve 16 once more, connect change-over valve 6 and filling with groove 7, the beverages in the bin 2 are delivered to filling with groove 7.The filling that also can consider this moment is with groove 7, pipe arrangement 21,22 waste-heates, is that the design temperature of pasteurization device 3 is set higherly than usually with H Exch.
To be sent to dashpot immediately after finishing be bin 2 reclaiming to be recovered to liquid in the circulation receiving slit 17.Particularly, need make circulation receiving slit 17 become state as soon as possible with the surplus that can accommodate liquid in the occasion of carrying out reciprocation cycle repeatedly.Even from circulation receiving slit 17 to the liquid of bin 2 carry from high level tank 5 to filling with the liquid course of conveying of groove 7 (in the filling) also can carry out.In this occasion, form from bin 2 to filling with the path of groove 7 and be back to the path both sides' of bin 2 path opened state from circulation receiving slit 17 by change-over valve 6.In this occasion, do not conflux in these 2 paths.For example can use double seat valve that valve body moves up and down etc. as the valve that plays such effect.As the method for carrying liquid to bin 2 from circulation receiving slit 17, can be by the pressure of the gas positive delivery liquid that produces such as nitrogen for example.In this occasion, be air-tight state owing to can make the circulation receiving slit, so the health aspect has advantage.At this moment, when making the device of gas inflow in the setting of circulation receiving slit, can the liquid return in the circulation receiving slit be carried out from the liquor charging of liquid bin 2 to plugger in bin 2.As other liquor charging means, also can use pump.Pump preferably is located in the reflux pipeline 18, but also can be located in the commutation return line 14 or in the commutation cycle path 13.In the occasion of using pump, circulation receiving slit 17 gets final product as forming open system or semi-open system.In addition, but the also pressure of using gases and pump both sides.
According to present embodiment, even be present in occasion in the way in path at high level tank 5 such grooves, also can not make the liquid temperature in the groove make liquid carry out commutation cycle with descending, in addition, by making the liquid in the plugger that temperature descended flow into the circulation receiving slit, make it be back to bin, thereby can reduce the abandonment loss of liquid in the plugger etc.In addition, also can obtain the effect that engineering is a minimum limit.
In the above-described embodiments, circulation receiving slit 17 is connected in transfer valve 16, but also can from the way of the commutation return line 14 of change-over valve 6 branches, the circulation receiving slit be set.In this occasion, when make filling with the liquid of groove 7 inside etc. when change-over valve 6 flow into the circulation receiving slit, the liquid of carrying from bin 2 is recycled to bin from valve 4 via 13 pipeline and 15 cooling vessel.That is, flow into the process of circulation receiving slit making from branch point 16 to filling with the liquid in the groove 7, the liquid of carrying from bin 2 via high level tank 5, change-over valve 6, pipeline 14 ground by 4,13,15 path circulation.
In this occasion, when from plugger reception liquid, switch change-over valve 6, cut off passage with groove 5, be communicated with the circulation receiving slit that is in path 14 by valve 6 from plugger, make liquid from change-over valve 6 to plugger and the liquid in the path from valve 6 to the circulation receiving slit flow into the circulation receiving slit.In this occasion, but the recycling device that leads to the liquid bin as the inflow device that leads to the circulation receiving slit with from the circulation the receiving slit also pressurization of using gases and/or pump etc.In the occasion of this form of implementation, though the danger that exists the temperature of the liquid in the groove 5 to descend by the path that arrives valve 6 from valve 4 by groove 5 attemperator being set, can more effectively move stowage unit.At this moment, the thermal drop of the part by making all coolings is identical, can further improve insulating efficiency.Occasion using this path is provided with groove and gets final product in the way in existing commutation path, so equipment becomes simply, the burden of engineering also reduces.
In Fig. 2, the beverage stowage unit 1a that implements heat preserving method of the present invention is shown.In the figure, identical with the component part of the beverage stowage unit 1 of Fig. 1 part is in identical representing with reference to the additional a in numbering back.The maximum characteristics of this beverage stowage unit are that the part of cooling off is divided at each position to be considered, by guaranteeing the thermal drop at the position that these are all, at first can reduce discarded amount significantly.That is, the gradient that the temperature of the part of cooling descends is respectively to each position difference, so needs design the insulation suitable to each position.In addition, make the thermal drop at each position, insulation back for equally to design.For example, even filling does not improve as the position (a) between change-over valve 6a and deaerating tank 25a with the thermal drop improvement at the position (e) of groove 7a, then the result must be all discarded with this dispersed phase holdup.(b) being the position of deaerating tank 25a, is the position of pipe arrangement 21a and 22a (c) and (d).
Therefore, set heat-retaining condition according to following policy.
Each position that thermal drop when (A) descending by temperature equates is divided the later position of change-over valve.
(B) making the target temperature gradient after the insulation at each position is design insulation definitely.
The heat-retaining condition at each position is shown in table 1~table 3.
As a result, as be the heat-retaining condition of table 4, then when the thermal insulating material that glass wool is such is used as warm material, the temperature descending speed of the later pipe arrangement of change-over valve, groove, valve, plugger be incubated in the same manner.Like this, can avoid most of more than the set point of temperature and the problem that such non-uniform temperature of a part below set point of temperature causes can further improve insulating efficiency.
As long as satisfy above-mentioned condition, then heat preserving method does not limit especially, still, need be careful at following 2 and select.
1. do not become the nest of germ
2. do not make warm material be blended into (particularly in the plugger insulation) in the container because come off
That is, warm material carries out the germ management easily and does not allow caducous warm material from considering to be preferably in sterilization state retrofilling beverage this point.For example, use double tube to make outer tube part be vacuum.Perhaps can consider in outer tube part filling glass cotton, foamed polyurethane, high temperature with warm materials such as glass fibres, but be not limited thereto.As long as satisfy above-mentioned characteristic.

When restarting filling,, can improve the mixing effect of the liquid that comprises solid constituent by using the filling groove that agitating member is installed.Particularly plugger stop the back by the discarded filling of the effect of heat insulation effect with the direct occasion of filling in the liquid ground in the groove, filling is with the interior solid constituent of groove and the problem that is separated into of liquid.In this occasion, though also can not make filling turn round, stir in-to-in liquid with groove with liquid-filled under the state of container, revolution be easy to make further generation of temperature decline.Therefore, make its when revolution, can turning period be shortened significantly when agitating member being installed on inside.Like this, can suppress the temperature decline of filling, will remain set point of temperature the filling temperature of container with groove.Form as this agitating member, it for example is tabular body, thickness is 2mm~5mm, transverse width can cross plugger inside in the horizontal direction, for being installed on the width of filling with the medial surface of lateral surface all in the groove and periphery, vertically width is about 20%~90% of a liquid depth, preferably has the length about 70%, can consider that relative horizontal surface has agitating plate angle, can depress or boost liquid from the top to the below or from the below to the top about 20 degree~40 degree etc.The shape of this agitating member typically can be considered tabular body, but be not limited thereto, for example can consider that section is streamline contour, ellipse, Long Circle, triangle, trapezoidal, and the shape of other polygonal column etc., but be not limited thereto, as long as by depressing or boost liquid from the top towards the below or from the below towards the top, having the function of the solid constituent of the solid constituent that can stir come-up and/or sedimentation.
The occasion of receiving slit does not circulate
Fig. 3 illustrates as beverage stowage unit 1b another embodiment of the present invention, that do not circulate receiving slit.In this embodiment, to being the identical formation position, formation position of equipment 1, b is appended to the laggard line display of identical reference marks, the detailed description of omitting its function with liquid filling device shown in Figure 1.In this embodiment, valve shown in Figure 1 16, circulation receiving slit 17 are not set, reach pipeline 18,14b is located at pump 27b between change-over valve 6b and the transfer valve 28b at the commutation return line.For other constitute position with exist the circulation receiving slit occasion identical.
The following describes the run action of the liquid filling apparatus 1b of the foregoing description.
(during the filling operation)
Because omitted the circulation receiving slit, so, transfer valve 16 do not had, but other operating method is identical with the occasion with circulation receiving slit.
(when filling stops)
Operation when stopping as filling, same with occasion with circulation receiving slit, consider commutation cycle and these 2 kinds of operations of reciprocation cycle.In addition, too for the consideration method of these 2 kinds of operations.
When filling stops, descending with the fluid temperature in the groove, carry out following such reciprocation cycle or commutation cycle in order not make filling.Often carry out reciprocation cycle repeatedly and be the best of the present invention
Form of implementation.That is,
(during reciprocation cycle)
(1) stops pump 26b, pressure is applied to filling groove 7b, make pump 27b action, make the pipe arrangement 21b, the 22b that are stranded in change-over valve 6b downstream and filling flow into bin 2b with the liquid of groove 7b by commutation cycle path 13b.Filling this moment is with needing to become air-tight state, so the atmospheric open valve (not shown) of plugger and filling valve 8b etc. close in the groove.In addition, only in the direction of change-over valve 6b → pump 27b → transfer valve 28b pass through liquid by change-over valve 6b this moment, stoped to the mobile of high level tank 5b from change-over valve 6b.Only can pass through by transfer valve 28b is feasible, stoped to the mobile of direction of transfer valve 4b by commutation return line 29b from transfer valve 28b from the direction of this valve → cooling mechanism 15b → bin 2b.In addition, make that by transfer valve 4b only the liquid of the direction of pasteurization device 3b → transfer valve 4b → high level tank 5b can pass through, the mobile of direction of transfer valve 4b → transfer valve 28b → cooling mechanism 15b is prevented from.Can filling not exerted pressure with groove yet, only by pump 27b make filling with the liquid return in the groove to accumulator tank.In this occasion, do not need to make filling with becoming air-tight state in the groove.
(2) by be set to the not shown empty detector that is right after the position before the pump 27b confirm do not have this state of liquid after, stop the action of pump 27b.In this occasion, also can not use empty detecting device, but by opening time of timer control pump 27b.In case pump 27b stops, then disconnecting and being connected of commutation return line 14b by change-over valve 6b, becoming only can be by the state of liquid in the direction of high level tank 5b → pump 26b → filling usefulness groove 7b.On the other hand, before pump 27b is about to stop or after, stop the pressurization (in the occasion of filling with groove having been pressurizeed) of filling behind the effluxion set after empty the detection or by timer with groove, meanwhile, the atmospheric open valve (not shown) of open fill device, formation can receive the state of liquid.The time set of being set by timer is the time that is stranded in the degree of the liquid change sky in pipe arrangement 21b, 22b and the filling usefulness groove 7b.In case become the liquid that can receive plugger, only can then make pump 26b revolution by the state of liquid on the direction of groove 7b, liquid is directed into filling groove 7b in high level tank 5b → change-over valve 6b → filling.
(3) be stranded in during pipe arrangement 21b, 22b and filling flow into bin 2b with the liquid of groove 7b making, pump 26b stops, pump 25b and 27b action.Therefore, during this period, the tank level control of the high level tank 5b when the surplus ground that need have whole received degree of amount that make the liquid of sending here from pump 25b carries out the filling operation.If necessary, then can increase the capacity of high level tank 5b.
The discharge rate of pump 27b is preferably in below the discharge rate of pump 25b.The occasion of the discharge rate of pump 27b more than the discharge rate of pump 25b need take to reduce the measures such as liquid level of bin 2b before making pump 27b action.
The main points of above-mentioned form of implementation are such design and method, that is, the later liquid of change-over valve is flow backwards by the route identical with the route of sending here, on the way do not receive in the groove, but a pneumatic transmission are to bin 2b.As the fill line being, then newly establish part and can easily be adapted to existing fill line only for the pump in the commutation recurrent canal that is arranged at the commutation cycle path.As required, also exist and set up or the occasion of displacement slot.
Consider that at filling groove 7b, pipe arrangement 21b, 22b waste-heat, the filling operation also can be set higherly than usually to the liquor charging temperature of plugger when restarting.Such control method of the liquor charging temperature that specifically, can consider after filling operation has just stopped, beginning to improve the design temperature of pasteurization device 3b, necessitates in the filling operation when restarting.
According to the temperature of season, content etc., also there is the multiple on-cycle occasion of frequentation when not required.The reason that stops according to plugger also exists and clearly knows and can restart the occasion moved in early days.When reciprocation cycle arrives such occasion, can produce next filling elongated occasion delay time before on the contrary.In addition, the occasion that also has the operation energy dissipation.
Therefore, in such occasion,, can realize degradation of energy operating method still less by in the plugger stopped process, carrying out common commutation cycle.That is, for example learn the occasion that stops that the time is short, can not carry out reciprocation cycle, but move, eliminate the reason that stops, but become the filling state, restart filling then and get final product by following commutation cycle in advance.Perhaps, liquid reaches the occasion below the uniform temperature after plugger stops the back certain hour and in the plugger, also can begin reciprocation cycle.
Operation at plugger stops, not carrying out immediately the occasion of reciprocation cycle, carries out following commutation cycle.Change-over valve 6b switches its connected state, and pump 26b is connected with the commutation return line 14b of commutation cycle path 13b.Therefore, deliver to transfer valve 28b by change-over valve 6b and commutation return line 14b, deliver in the bin 2b from this transfer valve by the liquid that pump 26b carries.Therefore, the liquid that can not of carrying from pump 26b is sent to filling with in the groove 7b.Can't help pump 27b liquid is turned back to commutation cycle path 13b this moment, so, as long as pump 27b moves the degree that tolerable liquid passes through.This moment pipe arrangement 21b, 22b, filling with groove 7b, and filling valve 8b in be detained liquid, its temperature decline.
Identical during also with common operation in the above-mentioned commutation cycle process, because the liquor charging amount of pump 25b is more than pump 26b, the electrolyte level of high level tank 5b continues to rise under this state.As the control of avoiding this problem, the occasion that has risen at the electrolyte level of high level tank reduces the influx to high level tank basically, the control setup that increases discharge is set gets final product.For example, according to the liquor charging amount of liquid surface height controlling pump 26b, when electrolyte level rises, make by change-over valve 6b, commutation return line 14b, reach get final product of flow that transfer valve 28b flow into bin 2b more.Perhaps also can make from the liquor charging of liquid bin by transfer valve, commutation return line 29b, and transfer valve 28b be back to the liquid bin, further reduce influx at high level tank.In a word, as long as, then can be any device for the influx that reduces high level tank, the device that increases discharge.
