Abstract

In the case of a method for continuously regulating the throughput of bottle treatment systems, having a plurality of individual machines which are arranged in series and/or in parallel in the direction of passage of the bottles and are connected to one another by means of intermediate conveyors, the throughput being regulated by the filling level of buffers upstream and downstream of such a machine, the pressure of accumulation is used as a basis for measurement and makes it possible to influence the treatment machines in question. The pressure of accumulation which must be exerted on the conveyors has, however, considerable disadvantages as it leads to damage to the vessels, which are arranged in a row, and/or to a high noise level. Furthermore, use of this known measure only makes it possible to regulate and/or influence one part of the treatment process, comprising a treatment station and the buffers upstream and downstream of it. The invention is intended to make it possible to regulate an entire system, and not just a single part thereof, with provision being made for specific values relating to other machines in the system. This is achieved in that the filling levels of the buffers produced by the throughput of the machines upstream and downstream of the said buffers and the filling level of the buffer sections are determined by a bottle-tracking method, and in that the numbers of bottles on the buffers upstream and downstream of the machine which are obtained in this way are converted into a guiding signal to set the current throughput of the machine.

Description

Verfahren zur kontinuierlichen Regelung der DurchsatzleistungProcess for the continuous regulation of the throughput

in Flaschenbehandlungsanlagen Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur kontinuierlichen Regelung der Durchsatzleistung in Flaschenbehandlungsanlagen mit mehreren in Durchlaufrichtung der Flaschen hintereinander-und/oder parallel geschalteter einzelner Maschinen, die durch Zwischenförderer miteinander verbunden sind, wobei die Durchsatzleistung anhand des Befüllungsgrades von Puffern vor und hinter der Maschine geregelt wird.in bottle treatment plants The invention relates to a method for continuous control of throughput in bottle treatment systems with several in the flow direction of the bottles one behind the other and / or in parallel switched individual machines that are connected to one another by intermediate conveyors are, the throughput rate based on the degree of filling of buffers before and is regulated behind the machine.

Zur Ermittlung des Befüllungsgrades von Pufferstrecken zwischen Gefäßbehandlungsmaschinen zum Zwecke der Regelung der Durchsatzleistung derartiger Maschinen in Gefäßbehandlungsanlagen ist es bekannt, den auf den Zwischenförderern anstehenden Staudruck mittels eines Staudruckdetektors zu ermitteln und den staulängenproportionalen Meßausgang, der eine Komponente der Eingangsgröße des dieser Maschine zugeordneten Reglers bildet, als Meßgröße zur Regelung der Durchsatzleistung der zugeordneten Maschine heranzuziehen.To determine the filling level of buffer sections between vessel treatment machines for the purpose of regulating the throughput of such machines in vessel treatment systems it is known, the back pressure on the intermediate conveyors by means of a To determine the back pressure detector and the backlog length proportional measurement output, the forms a component of the input variable of the controller assigned to this machine, to be used as a measured variable for regulating the throughput of the assigned machine.

Dabei wird der von jedem Staudruckdetektor der auf die erste Maschine folgenden Maschinen gewonnene Meßausgang einem Vergleicher zugeführt und darin mit einem Vergleichssignal verglichen, wobei, wenn der Betrag des Meßausgangs größer als der des Vergleichssignals ist, am Ausgang des Vergleichers eine Regelgröße auftritt, die proportional zu dem das Vergleichssignal Ubersteigenden Wert des Meßausgangs ist.In doing so, the of each dynamic pressure detector is the one on the first machine The measurement output obtained following machines is fed to a comparator and included therein a comparison signal compared, if the magnitude of the measurement output is greater than that of the comparison signal, a controlled variable occurs at the output of the comparator, which is proportional to the value of the measurement output which exceeds the comparison signal is.

Diese Regelgröße bildet in einer Additionsstufe vor dem Eingang des Reglers der davorl iegenden Maschine zusammen mit dem Meßausgang des Staudruckdetektors der in der Kette der vorliegenden Maschine eine stetige Regeldifferenz, die dem dieser Maschine zugeordneten Regler für die Bildung des Regelausgangs zugeführt wird. Bei diesem Regelverfahren wird vorausgesetzt, daß auf dem betreffenden Transporteur ein bestimmter Staudruck der Gefäße vorhanden ist.This controlled variable forms in an addition stage before the input of the Controller of the preceding machine together with the measuring output of the dynamic pressure detector that in the chain of the machine in question has a constant system deviation that corresponds to the this machine assigned controller for the formation of the control output supplied will. This standard procedure assumes that the carrier concerned there is a certain back pressure in the vessels.

Erst dieser Staudruck kann die erforderliche Regelbemessungsgröße liefern. Durch den zwingend erforderlichen Staudruck innerhalb der Transporteure treten erhebliche Nachteile auf, die beispielsweise in einer Beschädigung der aneinander reibenden Gefäße bzw. deren Ausstattungen einerseits zu sehen sind; andererseits verursacht der Staudruck insbesondere im Bereich der Vereinzelung erhebliche Impulsgeräusche, Verklemmungen und der., so daß ein einwandfreier Transportfluß nicht gewährleistet ist.Only this dynamic pressure can the required standard rated variable deliver. Due to the mandatory back pressure within the transporters significant disadvantages occur, for example in a damage to each other rubbing vessels or their equipment can be seen on the one hand; on the other hand the dynamic pressure causes considerable impulse noises, especially in the area of the separation, Jams and the., So that a perfect flow of transport is not guaranteed is.

Als weiterer Nachteil dieser Regelung ist anzusehen, daß es nur die Beeinflussung einer Behandlungsinsel, bestehend aus einer Behandlungsstation sowie der vor- und dahinterliegenden Puffer,ermöglicht. Eine Beeinflussung der Maschinen einer Anlage ist nur über die verbindenden Puffer möglich; eine direkte Beeinfluss-ung von Maschinen untereinander ist ebenfalls nicht möglich.Another disadvantage of this scheme is that it is only the Influencing a treatment island, consisting of a treatment station and the buffers in front of and behind it. Influencing the machines a system is only possible via the connecting buffers; a direct influence between machines is also not possible.

Die Erfindung hat sich unter Vermeidung der aufgezeigten Nachteile die Aufgabe gestellt, eine diese Insel überschreitende Regelung einer gesamten Anlage zu ermöglichen, wobei maschinenspezifische Kenngrößen anderer Maschinen in der Anlage berücksichtigt werden sollen.The invention has been found avoiding the disadvantages indicated set the task of a regulation of an entire system that transcends this island to enable machine-specific parameters of other machines in the system should be taken into account.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung bei einem Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, daß der Befüllungsgrad der Puffer aufgrund der Durchsatzleistung der Maschinen vor und hinter diesen Puffern sowie der Pufferstrecken durch ein Flaschenverfolgungsverfahren ermittelt wird und daß die auf diese Weise erhaltenen Flaschenzahlen auf den Puffern vor und hinter der Maschine in ein Leitsignal zur Vorgabe der aktuellen Durchsatzleistung der Maschine umgesetzt werden.This object is achieved according to the invention in a method of the opening paragraph mentioned type solved in that the filling level of the buffer due to the throughput of the machines in front of and behind these buffers as well as the buffer sections by means of a bottle tracking method is determined and that the bottle numbers obtained in this way on the buffers in front of and behind the machine in a control signal to specify the current throughput of the machine.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, daß bei einer willkürlich wählbaren Belegung der Puffer die Durchsatzleistung der zugeordneten Maschine der Durchsatzleistung der zugeordneten Leitmaschine anpaßbar ist, andernfalls durch Ober- oder Unterschreitung dieses Leitdurchsatzes die gewünschte Belegung der Puffer angestrebt wird, wobei die Leitmaschine beliebig wählbar ist.In a further development of the invention it is proposed that in an arbitrary selectable occupancy of the buffer the throughput of the assigned machine of the Throughput of the assigned master machine is adjustable, otherwise by If this master throughput is exceeded or not reached, the desired occupancy of the buffers is aimed at, the master machine being freely selectable.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Leitmaschine der zu regelnden Maschine vorzugsweise die in Füllerrichtung nächstliegende Maschine und/oder Behandlungsgruppe ist.It is also proposed that the master machine of the machine to be controlled preferably the closest machine and / or treatment group in the filler direction is.

Dabei hat es sich als zweckmäßig erwiesen, daß bei mehreren gleichartigen parallel arbeitenden Maschinen vorhandene Leistungsredundanz bei Leistungsminderung von Maschinen dieser Gruppe ausgenutzt wird.It has proven to be useful that when there are several of the same type machines working in parallel, there is power redundancy in the event of a reduction in power is used by machines of this group.

Im Gegensatz zu den Nachteilen des eingangs geschilderten Verfahrens der partiellen Beeinflussung einer Behandlungsinsel ist mit der vorliegenden Erfindung dem entgegen sichergestellt, daß auch Abweichungen von dem idealen Anlagenverhalten bzw. der betreffenden Durchsatzleistung der auseinanderliegenden, also nicht unmittelbar vor- oder hintereinander geschalteten Maschinen, unmittelbar in die Regelung eingreift.In contrast to the disadvantages of the method described above the partial manipulation of a treatment island is with the present invention on the other hand, it ensures that there are also deviations from the ideal system behavior or the relevant throughput of the spaced apart, so not directly upstream or downstream machines, intervenes directly in the control.

Darüberhinaus können sich bei Einsatz des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens bei störungsfreiem Betrieb die Durchsatzleistungen der in der Anlage gruppierten Maschinen an die Durchsatzleistung einer Leitmaschine anpassen. Eine solche Leitmaschine kann beliebig im Rahmen einer Gesamtanlage gewählt und gegebenenfalls auch automatisch anhand der Betriebsbedingungen bestimmt werden.In addition, when using the method according to the invention in the case of trouble-free operation, the throughput rates of those grouped in the system Adapt machines to the throughput of a master machine. Such a leading machine can be selected as desired within the framework of an overall system and, if necessary, also automatically can be determined based on the operating conditions.

Als Leitmaschine wird dabei zweckmäßigerweise eine Maschine gewählt, die aufgrund ihrer verfahrungstechnischen Kriterien und Eigenschaften eine Leitfunktion innerhalb der Anlage ausübt, wie dies beispielsweise bei einer Füllmaschine oder einem Pasteur innerhalb einer Getränkeabfüllanlage gegeben ist.A machine is expediently selected as the master machine, which has a leading function due to its procedural criteria and properties exercises within the system, as is the case, for example, with a filling machine or is given to a pasteurizer within a beverage filling plant.
