Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Vorrichtung zum Füllen von steifen Behältern nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruchs. Bei einer beispielsweise durch die EP-A-1196 bekannten Vorrichtung dieser Art, bei der die Fülleinheiten an einem kontinuierlich umlaufenden Drehtisch angeordnet sind, sind auf der Wägeplatte der Wägeeinrichtungen gabelförmige Halter befestigt, die eine Flasche an deren Hals und Bauch halten und so deren Mündung auf die Fülldüse ausrichten. Da diese Zentriereinrichtungen mit den Wägeplatten verbunden sind, und die eine Gabel bis zum Flaschenhals hochreicht, sind die Zentrieraufbauten Kollisionen ausgesetzt, die von in deren Umlaufbereich gestoßenen Objekten oder bei Flaschenbruch von Flaschenteilen herrühren können. Solche Kollisionen können dann die auf Stöße anfälligen Wägeeinrichtungen beschädigen. Außerdem geht das Gewicht der Zentriereinrichtungen auf die Vorlast der Wägeeinrichtungen ein, so daß deren Empfindlichkeit hinsichtlich des Gewichts der abzuwägenden Mengen beeinträchtigt ist.The invention relates to a device for filling rigid containers according to the preamble of the main claim. In a device of this type, known for example from EP-A-1196, in which the filling units are arranged on a continuously rotating turntable, fork-shaped holders are attached to the weighing plate of the weighing devices, which hold a bottle on the neck and belly and thus the mouth thereof align with the filling nozzle. Since these centering devices are connected to the weighing plates and which a fork reaches up to the bottle neck, the centering assemblies are exposed to collisions which can result from objects struck in the area around them or bottle parts from broken bottles. Such collisions can then damage the weighing devices, which are prone to impact. In addition, the weight of the centering devices takes into account the preload of the weighing devices, so that their sensitivity to the weight of the quantities to be weighed is impaired.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zum Füllen von steifen Behältern nach den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß der Umlaufweg der Flaschen und der angrenzende Bereich zwischen Fülldüse und Wägeplatte frei ist, und somit Stöße auf die Wägezellen vermieden werden. Die senkrechte Kraftkomponente der von der Zentriereinrichtung auf einen Behälter ausgeübten Kraft ist bei der neuartigen, von der Wägeeinrichtung getrennten Zentriereinrichtung äusserst gering, so daß sie sich nicht negativ auf das Wägeergebnis auswirkt.The inventive device for filling rigid containers according to the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that the circulation path of the bottles and the adjacent area between the filling nozzle and the weighing plate is free, and thus impacts on the load cells are avoided. The vertical force component of the force exerted by the centering device on a container is extremely low in the novel centering device separate from the weighing device, so that it does not have a negative effect on the weighing result.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen der im Hauptanspruch angegebenen Füllvorrichtung möglich. Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Ausstattung der Zentriereinrichtung mit Rollkörpern, die den Durchlaß für den Hals einer Flasche begrenzen und die die Haftreibung der Zentrierkraft minimieren. Eine besonders einfache Ausgestaltung der Vorrichtung ergibt sich, wenn die Rollkörper als Rollen ausgebildet sind.The measures listed in the subclaims enable advantageous developments and improvements of the filling device specified in the main claim. It is particularly advantageous to equip the centering device with rolling elements which limit the passage for the neck of a bottle and which minimize the static friction of the centering force. A particularly simple embodiment of the device is obtained if the rolling bodies are designed as rollers.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

Eine Füllvorrichtung der Rundläuferbauart zum Füllen von Flaschen 1 mit Flüssigkeitsmengen, die ein bestimmtes Gewicht haben, hat ein Karussell mit einem unteren Drehtisch 11 und einem oberen Drehtisch 12. Am unteren Drehtisch 11 sind auf einem Teilkreis in gleichmäßigen Abständen mehrere Wägeeinrichtungen 13 angeordnet. Das Gehäuse 14 einer Wägeeinrichtung 13 mit der Wägezelle ist auf einer Platte 15 unterhalb des Drehtisches 11 befestigt. Ihre Wägeplatte 16 sitzt auf einer Stange 17, die aus dem Gehäuse 14 frei durch eine Öffnung 18 im unteren Drehtisch 11 ragt.A filling device of the rotary type for filling bottles 1 with quantities of liquid that have a certain Ge have a carousel with a lower turntable 11 and an upper turntable 12. On the lower turntable 11, several weighing devices 13 are arranged at regular intervals on a pitch circle. The housing 14 of a weighing device 13 with the load cell is fastened on a plate 15 below the turntable 11. Your weighing plate 16 sits on a rod 17 which protrudes freely from the housing 14 through an opening 18 in the lower turntable 11.

Senkrecht über und axial ausgerichtet zu jeder Wägeplatte 16 ist am oberen Drehtisch 12 eine Fülldüse 20 mit einem Füllventil 21 angeordnet. Die Fülldüse 20 durchsetzt den oberen Drehtisch 12 und weist senkrecht nach unten. Das Füllventil 21 ist durch eine Leitung 22 mit einem Vorratsbehälter 23 für die abzufüllende Flüssigkeit verbunden.A filling nozzle 20 with a filling valve 21 is arranged vertically above and axially aligned with each weighing plate 16 on the upper rotary table 12. The filling nozzle 20 passes through the upper rotary table 12 and points vertically downwards. The filling valve 21 is connected by a line 22 to a reservoir 23 for the liquid to be filled.

Zum Ausrichten einer auf die Wägeplatte 16 einer Wägeein- richtung 13 gestellten Flasche 1 ist wenig unterhalb der Fülldüse 20 eine Zentriereinrichtung 25 angeordnet. Die Zentriereinrichtung 25 hat einen Ring 26 mit von dessen Öffnung 27 ausgehenden, kreuzweise angeordneten Aussparungen 28. In den Aussparungen 28 ist je eine Rolle 30 auf einem Bolzen 31 drehbar gelagert. Die Achsen der Bolzen 31 liegen in einer gemeinsamen Ebene und begrenzen ein Quadrat. Der lichte Abstand zwei einander gegenüberliegender Rollen 30 ist etwas größer als der Durchmesser des Halses 2 der zu füllenden Flaschen 1. Der Ring 26 sitzt fest in einer Ringplatte 32, die sich quer zur Strahlrichtung der Fülldüse 20 erstreckt. Die Ringplatte 32 ist am unteren Ende einer Stange 33 befestigt, die senkrecht in einem am oberen Drehtisch 12 befestigten Lagerteil 34 verschiebbar ist und die an ihrem oberen Ende ein Klemmstück 35 mit einer Rolle 36 trägt. Die Rolle 36 liegt auf der Oberseite eines ortsfesten, den oberen Drehtisch 12 umgebenden Kurvenring 38 auf, dessen obere Steuerseite die Höhenlage der Zentriereinrichtung 25 bestimmt.For aligning an on the weighing plate 16 of a Wägeein - direction 13 of the bottle 1 is provided slightly below the filling nozzle 20 a centering device 25 is arranged. The centering device 25 has a ring 26 with recesses 28, starting from its opening 27, arranged crosswise. In each of the recesses 28, a roller 30 is rotatably mounted on a bolt 31. The axes of the bolts 31 lie in a common plane and delimit a square. The clear distance between two opposing rollers 30 is slightly larger than the diameter of the neck 2 of the bottles 1 to be filled. The ring 26 is firmly seated in an annular plate 32 which extends transversely to the jet direction of the filling nozzle 20. The ring plate 32 is fastened to the lower end of a rod 33 which can be displaced vertically in a bearing part 34 fastened to the upper rotary table 12 and which carries a clamping piece 35 with a roller 36 at its upper end. The roller 36 rests on the top of a stationary cam ring 38 surrounding the upper rotary table 12, the upper control side of which determines the height of the centering device 25.

Die oben beschriebene Füllvorrichtung arbeitet wie folgt:

  • An einer bestimmten Stelle am Umlaufweg der aus Fülldüse 20 und Wägeeinrichtung 13 bestehenden Fülleinheiten hat der Kurvenring 38 mit seinem erhabenen Teil über die Rolle 36 und die Stange 33 die Ringplatte 32 mit dem Ring 26 in die obere, gestrichelt dargestellte Lage angehoben. In dieser Lage wird eine Flasche 1 von einer nicht dargestellten an sich bekannten Zuführeinrichtung auf die Wägeplatte 16 der Wägeeinrichtung 13 geschoben. Um vor dem Öffnen der Fülldüse 20 die Mündung der Flasche 1 mit der Strahlrichtung der Fülldüse 20 auszurichten, wird die Zentriereinrichtung 25 aus der oberen Lage in die dargestellte untere Lage beim Umlaufen des Karussels abgesenkt. Dabei gelangt der Hals 2 der Flasche 1 zwischen die Rollen 30 des Ringes 26, wobei die unteren, einander zugewandten bogenförmigen Flächen der Rollen 30 den Flaschenhals 2 zwischen einander zentrieren und dabei auf die Fülldüse 20 ausrichten. Während des darauffolgenden Füllens der Flasche 1 halten die Rollen 30 die Flasche 1 in Ausrichtung zur Fülldüse 20. Nach Einfüllen einer Menge mit dem Sollgewicht in die Flasche 1 erzeugt die Wägeeinrichtung 13 ein Signal, so daß das Füllventil 21 wieder schließt. Von dem Kurvenring 38 wird an einer bestimmten Stelle des Umlaufweges des Karussels die Zentriereinrichtung 25 wieder in die obere Stellung angehoben, so daß die gefüllte Flasche zum Abführen freigestellt ist, was von einer ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Abführeinrichtung vorgenommen wird.
The filling device described above works as follows:
  • At a certain point on the circulation path of the filling units consisting of the filling nozzle 20 and the weighing device 13, the cam ring 38 has raised the ring plate 32 with the ring 26 into the upper position shown in broken lines with its raised part via the roller 36 and the rod 33. In this position, a bottle 1 is pushed from a feed device (not shown) which is known per se onto the weighing plate 16 of the weighing device 13. In order to align the mouth of the bottle 1 with the jet direction of the filling nozzle 20 before opening the filling nozzle 20, the centering device 25 is lowered from the upper position into the illustrated lower position when the carousel rotates. The neck 2 of the bottle 1 passes between the rollers 30 of the ring 26, the lower, mutually facing arcuate surfaces of the rollers 30 centering the bottle neck 2 between them and thereby aligning them with the filling nozzle 20. During the subsequent filling of the bottle 1, the rollers 30 hold the bottle 1 in alignment with the filling nozzle 20. After filling a quantity with the desired weight into the bottle 1, the weighing device 13 generates a signal so that the filling valve 21 closes again. From the cam ring 38, the centering device 25 is raised again to the upper position at a certain point in the circulation path of the carousel, so that the filled bottle is free for removal, which is carried out by a discharge device, also not shown.

Ergänzend wird darauf hingewiesen, daß die Zentriereinrichtung anstelle von vier Rollen auch nur drei oder mehr als vier aufweisen kann, und daß anstelle von Rollen mit zylindrischer Umfangsfläche auch anders gestaltete Rollkörper vorgesehen werden können.In addition, it is pointed out that instead of four rollers, the centering device can also have only three or more than four, and that instead of rollers with a cylindrical peripheral surface, differently designed roller bodies can also be provided.
