Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and an apparatus for performing the method.
  • Such a method is known from GB-PS 690 636.
  • the bottle contains after filling level correction by pressing in pure C0 2 in the space above the liquid level practically pure C0 2 , so that a harmful influence of atmospheric oxygen in the time until a cap is largely prevented.
  • This is achieved without over-foaming between filling and closing by appropriately setting the excess pressure of the liquid or by injecting liquid or gas into the filled bottle, as is required in the filling processes for beer and other oxygen-sensitive foaming drinks which are customary today is.
  • the known method thus works without loss of liquid, since the liquid portion pressed out of the bottle during the filling level correction can be collected and refilled.
  • a filling device in which the bottles are pre-stressed after the pre-evacuation with the help of gas from the liquid kettle.
  • the gas mixture which is displaced from the bottles as they flow into the bottles is collected in a separate ring channel.
  • the gas is led out of the ring channel via a valve, a line, a pump and another line back into the liquid tank.
  • the further prestressing then takes place with this CO 2 / air mixture.
  • the bias gas is always contaminated with 10% air and more.
  • the degree of contamination depends on the vacuum that can be achieved when the bottles are pre-evacuated and the amount of CO 2 added to the liquid kettle.
  • the invention has for its object to further reduce the effect of atmospheric oxygen in a method of the type mentioned while maintaining the liquid loss-free mode of operation.
  • a device for performing this method is to be created.
  • all working phases, from preparation for the pretensioning, through the creation of the empty space in the bottles to the fitting of the closure cap, are included in an oxygen-free or oxygen-free mode of operation, as a result of which optimal protection of the liquid can be achieved.
  • the method according to the invention is thus ideal for oxygen-sensitive liquids, such as. B. suitable for beer.
  • the overpressure of the pure C0 2 used for prestressing can be equal to the overpressure under which the liquid is kept.
  • bottling is carried out using the pure constant pressure process, ie the liquid runs into the bottles solely due to a height difference.
  • the overpressure of the pure CO 2 can also be somewhat less than the overpressure of the liquid.
  • the filling is accelerated somewhat using the differential pressure method.
  • the size of the overpressure depends in the usual way on the peculiarities of the liquid, with CO 2 -containing beverages such as beer, mineral water or lemonade the overpressure is approx. 2 to 5 bar. It can be kept as low as is necessary for the C0 2 binding in the drink. since a targeted foaming or bubbling between filling and closing, as already mentioned, is not necessary.
  • the procedure specified in claim 2 is particularly advantageous. This ensures that no air or air-gas mixture, e.g. B. from the pressure vessel for the liquid can enter the bottle.
  • the CO 2 pressure during prestressing preferably corresponds to that during the filling level correction, so that the same CO 2 source can be used.
  • the device according to the invention is hardly more complex than the known filling devices. It can be implemented with a wide variety of designs with regard to the pressure vessel, the valves, the control device for the valves, the filling head, the return gas pipe, etc.
  • the device according to FIG. 1 is used for filling beer, that is to say a strongly foaming, oxygen-sensitive beverage, into bottles 1. It has a first pressure vessel 2, which is connected by a line 3 to an underpressure of, for. B. 4 bar standing beer source 4 is connected. In this line 3, a control valve 5 is switched on, which is controlled by a controller 6. A fill level probe 7 is connected to this, which sits inside the pressure vessel 2 and measures its fill level. The controller 6 is designed such that it keeps the liquid level in the pressure vessel 2 at the desired value by closing and opening the control valve 5.
  • a line 8 also leads into the first pressure vessel 2 and leads to the outside via a control valve 9. This control valve 9 is controlled by a controller 10, the function of which is explained below.
  • the device has a second pressure vessel 11 which is connected to a vacuum source 12, e.g. B. is connected to a vacuum pump. Through this, the second pressure vessel 11 to an absolute pressure of z. B. 0.1 bar evacuated.
  • the device is also equipped with a third pressure vessel 13, which is connected by a line 14 to a CO 2 source 15. This provides pure carbon dioxide with an overpressure of z. B. 5 bar.
  • a Reducing valve 16 turned on with a pressure regulator 17. Through this, the excess pressure of pure C0 2 in the third pressure vessel 13 is constant at z. B. 3.2 bar.
  • the controller 10 for the control valve 9 is designed as a differential pressure controller and on the one hand to the line 8 in the area between the control valve 9 and the first pressure vessel 2 or directly to its gas space and on the other hand to the line 14 between the reducing valve 16 and the third pressure vessel 13 or connected directly to it.
  • the controller 10 is set such that it opens the pressure in the line 8 or in the first pressure vessel 2 by z by opening and closing the control valve 9.
  • At least one filling element 18 is connected to the three pressure vessels 2, 11, 13 and has a filling head 19 which can be pressed onto the bottle mouth and has a conical centering opening and an elastic sealing ring (not shown).
  • a return gas tube 20 is fastened, which has an opening or a cut at the lower end and is connected to the gas space of the first pressure vessel 2 via a return gas line 21 and a return gas valve 22.
  • a liquid line 23 with a liquid valve 24 opens into the filling head 19 and is connected to the liquid space of the first pressure container 2, which is at a higher level than the filling head 19.
  • a gas channel 25 is connected to the filling head 19, which connects the second pressure container 11 via a vacuum valve 26 and the third pressure container 13 via a CO 2 valve 27. is bound and can also be connected to the free atmosphere by means of a relief valve 28.
  • the actuation of the valves 22, 24, 26, 27 and 28 is carried out by a control device, not shown, which, for. B. has several fixed cams and control blocks when the container 2, 11 and 13 with the filling elements 18 on one. Orbit circular path.
  • the filling element 18 is assigned a lifting cylinder 29 with a bottle plate 30 that can be raised and lowered, by means of which a bottle 1 can be pressed against the filling head 19.
  • a bottle 1 is sealed off from the ambient atmosphere and is connected in a gas-tight and liquid-tight manner to the filling head 19 or to the lines and channels opening into it.
  • a closure member 31 is provided, which is arranged such that it can be moved in height above a height-fixed bottle plate 32.
  • the closure member 31 has a closure cone 33 and a spring-loaded hold-down 34 and is set up for fastening crown caps 35 on the bottle mouth.
  • the crown caps 35 are held on the underside of the hold-down 34 by magnetic force before they are closed.
  • a plurality of blowing nozzles 36 are arranged to the side of the closure member 31 or the bottle 1, which are directed towards the space between the underside of the closure member 31 and the bottle mouth.
  • the blowing nozzles 36 are connected via a supply line 37 with a changeover valve 38 to the line 8 coming from the first pressure vessel 2. They are fed with the almost pure CO 2 gas that continuously flows out of the pressure vessel 2 during normal filling. Instead, it is also possible to connect the blowing nozzles 36 directly to the C0 2 -Q U elle 15.
  • the blow nozzles 36 are aligned in such a way that a predominantly C0 2- containing atmosphere is generated between the closing member 31 and the bottle mouth, which includes the crown cap 35 and the bottle mouth. An action of the blow nozzles 36 on the inside of the bottles 1, however, is not necessary.
  • a connecting line 39 is inserted with a check valve 40, so that the first pressure vessel 2 can, if necessary, be connected directly to the C0 2 source 15.
  • a cleaning line 41 with a check valve 42 is connected to line 3, through which the first pressure vessel 2 can be filled with water or the like.
  • the pressure vessel 2 is preferably completely filled with water via this cleaning line 41, which is then displaced by opening the shut-off valve 40 by means of CO 2 .
  • the pressure vessel 2 is then partially filled by the beer source 4 via the control valve 5 with the shut-off valves 40 and 42 closed, the excess CO 2 being blown off via the line 8 and the control valve 9. In this way, contact between the beer and the air is largely avoided from the start.
  • the valves and lines that may be required for this are not shown in FIG. 1. If the vacuum pump 12 is now put into operation, the device is ready for operation.
  • the method for filling beer into bottles carried out with the device prepared in this way proceeds as follows: First, with closed valves 22, 24, 26, 27, 28, a clean, empty bottle 1 is placed on the bottle plate 30 (phase A) and through the lifting cylinder 29 pressed firmly against the filling head 19. This bottle is 100% filled with air (indicated by small crosses).
  • the vacuum valve 26 is now opened for a certain period of time.
  • the bottle 1 is connected to the second pressure vessel 11 and evacuated to an absolute pressure of 0.1 bar (phase B).
  • the initial air is thus extracted to 90%, so that the air concentration in the bottle is now 10%.
  • the CO 2 valve 27 is opened for a certain period of time.
  • the bottle 1 is connected to the third pressure vessel 13, from which pure CO 2 (indicated by small circles) into the bottle flows in (phase C) until a pressure of 3.2 bar in the bottle 1 is reached. This further reduces the air concentration to approximately 2.5%.
  • the actual filling process is initiated by opening the liquid valve 24 and the return gas valve 22.
  • a small part of the gas flows from the bottle 1 via the return gas pipe 20 and the return gas line 21 into the first pressure vessel 2 until there is also an overpressure of 3 bar in the bottle 1. This prevents gas from flowing out of the pressure vessel 2 into the bottle 1 and possibly increasing the air concentration there.
  • the beer (indicated by short dashes) runs into the bottle 1 via the liquid line 23 due to the height difference between the first pressure vessel 2 and the bottles 1, the almost pure CO 2 via the return gas pipe 20 and the return gas line 21 in the first pressure vessel 2 is displaced (phase D).
  • the pressure vessel 2 therefore, after a while there is also an almost pure CO 2 atmosphere with an air concentration of approximately 2.5%, so that neither while in the pressure vessel nor while entering the bottle 1 via the filling element 18 noticeable influence of atmospheric oxygen on the beer can take place.
  • the beer level in the bottle 1 has reached the opening of the return gas tube 20, no more gas can escape through this.
  • the liquid valve 24 is now closed, while the return gas valve 22 remains open.
  • the CO 2 valve 27 is opened again for a short period of time. Pure CO 2 flows into the bottle 1 at a differential pressure of 0.2 bar and displaces as much beer from the bottle 1 through the return gas pipe 20 and the return gas line 21 until the liquid level has dropped to the level of the opening of the return gas pipe 20 or somewhat below .
  • the resulting empty space in bottle 1 is filled with pure C0 2 (phase F).
  • Bottle 1 now only contains beer and C0 2 .
  • the opening time for the CO 2 valve 13 is dimensioned such that sufficient CO 2 flows in to convey the beer completely out of the return gas line 21 back into the first pressure vessel 2 and to flush any air residues completely out of the bottle 1.
  • the inflowing pure CO 2 reduces the air concentration in the pressure vessel 2, so that values below 2.5% are obtained.
  • the beer and CO 2 overflow is extremely gentle due to the low pressure difference. This small pressure difference is possible because the return gas valve 12 is inevitably kept open and does not form a throttle point. After closing the C0 2 valve 27 or simultaneously with this, the return gas valve 22 is closed again. This completes the «Fill level correction with introduction of pure CO 2 » step and all valves are closed.
  • the relief valve 28 provided with a throttle point is opened for a specific short period of time.
  • the bottle plate 30 can be lowered and the filled bottle 1 can be removed from the filling head 19.
  • the empty space above the beer level in the bottle 1 is still completely filled with pure CO 2 , so that the atmospheric oxygen cannot act on the beer.
  • the bottle 1 can now without special protective measures such.
  • B. high-pressure injection for the purpose of foam generation on the bottle plate 32 under the closure member 31 are transported. There is therefore no loss of beer during this transfer. If there is little automatic foaming of the beer, this is no longer a problem since the foam can be absorbed by the empty space in the bottle 1.
  • the valve 38 is switched over, so that the air blown out of the first pressure vessel 2 via line 8 is almost clean CO 2 with an air concentration of 2.5% or less no longer flows directly outside, but is fed to the blowing nozzles 36 and only emerges there.
  • An almost pure CO 2 atmosphere including the crown cap 35 is built up between the underside of the closure member 31 and the bottle mouth (phase H). At the same time, any air pockets in the cavities, in particular on the underside of the crown cap 35, are removed and the bottle mouth is separated from the normal air atmosphere.
  • the CO 2 atmosphere is maintained at least until the crown cap 35 has been placed on the bottle 1 and flanged by the closing member 31 dropping over a control curve (not shown) or the like.
  • the valve 38 can then be switched over again (phase 1).
  • the pure CO 2 in the bottle cannot be “contaminated” with air, in particular not due to air pockets on the underside of the crown cap 35.
  • After closing the bottle 1 therefore only contains beer and pure C0 2 . It is usually sufficient if, as described, the almost pure CO 2 flowing out of the first pressure vessel 2 with an air concentration of approx. 2.5% is used. Any bother Influencing influences due to the extremely low air content could not be determined.
  • This CO 2 is also sufficient in terms of quantity, since almost four times the bottle volume of C0 2 at normal pressure is required to pretension the bottles to 3 bar, which is then removed from the bottle again when filling.
  • the C0 2 from the third pressure vessel 13 thus has multiple uses: building the back pressure, protecting the beer when it enters the bottle, protecting the beer in the pressure vessel 2 and building a CO 2 atmosphere when closing.
  • the CO 2 for the blowing nozzles 36 only requires a relatively low pressure, since no liquid has to be pressed out of the bottles 1.
  • the blowing nozzles 36 can of course also be supplied directly from the third pressure vessel 13 or through the CO 2 source 15. It is also possible to dispense with the valve 38 and to connect the line 8 directly to the line 37.
