Einrichtung zum Trennen, Dosieren und Verpacken fester, konsistenter Zuckerwaren vorzugsweise
von geleeartiger Süßwaren wie z.B. Gummibärchen.
Equipment for separating, dosing and packaging solid, consistent sugar confectionery, preferably
of jelly-like sweets such as gummy bears.

Branchenintern ist bekannt, daß die Dosierung geleeartiger Produkte große Schwierigkeiten bereitet, da diese in bisherigen Dosiereinrichtungen zum Verkleben neigen und Anlagenstillstandszeiten verursachen bzw. erhöhten Wartungsaufwand verlangen. Nach dem herkömmlichen Dosierverfahren tritt ein weiteres Problem auf, daß obengenannte Süßwaren sich miteinander verklumpen, und so eine genaue Wägung sehr erschweren.It is known within the industry that dosing jelly-like products is very difficult, as they tend to stick together in existing dosing systems and cause system downtimes or require increased maintenance. Another problem with the conventional dosing process is that the above-mentioned sweets clump together, making accurate weighing very difficult.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, geleeartige Produkte transportsicher, sowie anzahl- oder gewichtsorientiert zu verpacken.The invention is based on the object of packaging jelly-like products in a way that is safe for transport and based on quantity or weight.

Diese erfindungsgemäße Dosiereinrichtung wird über ein Förderband (1) mit Süßwaren beschickt, über eine Linearschwingschiene (2) zur Kältekammer (3) befördert. Dort werden die zu Klumpen verklebten Geleeprodukte durch Kälteeinwirkung auf eine Vorzugstemperatur von 253 K unterkühlt, wobei sie intern verspröden.This dosing device according to the invention is fed with sweets via a conveyor belt (1) and is transported to the cold chamber (3) via a linear oscillating rail (2). There, the jelly products, which have stuck together to form lumps, are cooled to a preferred temperature of 253 K by exposure to cold, whereby they become internally brittle.

Anschließend werden die Süßwaren einer Trennvorrichtung zugeführt, wo die Zuckerwaren eine Beschleunigung erhalten und durch auftreffen auf eine Prallplatte (4) ihre kinetische Energie teilweise abgeben und so voneinander platzen.The sweets are then fed to a separating device, where the sweets are accelerated and, by hitting an impact plate (4), partially release their kinetic energy and thus burst apart.

Um im weiteren Verlauf, die voneinander getrennten Süßwaren, ein erneutes Verkleben zu verhindern wird ein fester, körnförmiger, Zwischenstoff (5) hinzugegeben, der im nachfolgenden Verarbeitugsprozeß , im Unterschied zu bisherigen Verfahren, wieder leicht ausgeschieden werden kann, vorzugsweise Reis, Sago, Hirse.In order to prevent the separated sweets from sticking together again in the further course of the process, a solid, granular intermediate substance (5) is added, which, in contrast to previous processes, can be easily separated again in the subsequent processing process, preferably rice, sago, millet.

Über eine zweite Schwingschiene (6), deren Neigung zur Horizontalen 10° beträgt werden Zwischenstoff und Süßware zur Förderrinne (7) transportiert.The intermediate material and confectionery are transported to the conveyor trough (7) via a second oscillating rail (6), which is inclined at 10° to the horizontal.

Dort rutschen die Produkte auf einer einseitig offenen, um 10°gekippten und um 45° geneigten Rinne hinab.There, the products slide down a chute that is open on one side, tilted by 10° and inclined by 45°.

Auf dieser sind Schikanen integriert, die evtl. noch miteinander verklebte Süßwaren in den Zwischenbehälter (8) aussondern.This has integrated baffles that separate any candy that may still be stuck together into the intermediate container (8).

Kurz vor Ende des Rutschvorganges wird der spezifisch leichtere Zwischenstoff über eine Segregationstation (9), vorzugsweise Luftdüsen, in einen Zwischenbehälter ausgesondert.Shortly before the end of the sliding process, the specifically lighter intermediate material is separated into an intermediate container via a segregation station (9), preferably air nozzles.

Anschließend befindet sich eine Lichtschranke (10) parallel zur unteren Rutschfläche, die die vorbeirutschenden Süßwaren zählt.Then there is a light barrier (10) parallel to the lower slide surface, which counts the sweets as they slide past.

Nachfolgend zur Förderrinne folgt die eigentliche Separationseinrichtung. Dort fallen eine bestimmte Anzahl von Produkten in eine um ihre horizontale Lagerachse schwenkbare Sammelschaufel (11) und werden dort bis zum Weiterverpackungsimpuls der Verpackungseinheit bereitgestellt. The actual separation device follows the conveyor trough. There, a certain number of products fall into a collecting shovel that can be swiveled around its horizontal bearing axis (11) and are stored there until the packaging unit receives the further packaging impulse.

Ist die Sammelschaufel mit der entsprechenden Stückzahl befüllt, schwenkt eine mit einem Drehantrieb versehene Klappe (12), die oberhalb des Förderrinnenauslaufes drehbar gelagert ist, um 45° nach unten, so daß der Materialfluß in eine darunterliegende Sammelschaufel (13) abgelenkt wird.When the collecting bucket is filled with the corresponding number of pieces, a flap (12) equipped with a rotary drive, which is mounted so that it can rotate above the conveyor trough outlet, swings downwards by 45° so that the flow of material is diverted into a collecting bucket (13) located below.

Alternativ zu der Zähldosierung über Schaufelsystem kann der Materialfluß automatischen Dosierwaagen zugeleitet werden.As an alternative to the counting dosing via a scoop system, the material flow can be fed to automatic dosing scales.

Ist das Dosiersystem maschinenbedingt blockiert, darf der Materialfluß auf der Förderrinne nicht mehr gestoppt werden , um ein anhaften der Süßwaren zu verhindern, so daß keine Aggregatsblockierung stattfinden kann, spricht eine Abweisvorrichtung (14) an , die in Form eines Luftstrahles den nachfolgenden Materialfluß in der Form so ablenkt, daß die Produkte aus der Förderrinne in einen Zwischenbehälter ausgelenkt werden.If the dosing system is blocked due to the machine, the material flow on the conveyor trough must no longer be stopped in order to prevent the candy from sticking, so that no blockage of the unit can occur, a deflector device (14) is activated, which in the form of an air jet deflects the subsequent material flow in the mold so that the products are deflected from the conveyor trough into an intermediate container.

Von dort erfolgt der Rücktransport getrennt zum jeweiligen Kreislaufbeginn.From there, the return transport takes place separately to the beginning of the respective cycle.
