Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filler nozzle for aseptic foodstuffs containers.
  • a bag of this type is provided with a nozzle for filling purpose, by means of which it can be attached to the equipment. Any one of a variety of techniques may be adopted for sealing the nozzle, including fitment of a bung, or of a heat-sealable web; in either instance, a fully aseptic seal cannot be ensured inasmuch as the inside of the bag becomes exposed to the surrounding atmosphere when the bung is fitted, or the web sealed in place.
  • the object of the invention disclosed is to overcome the drawbacks described above, and more exactly, to embody a filler nozzle that will ensure 100% aseptic conditions during batching and sealing operations, and at the same time, permit of exploiting the capacity of the bag to the full.
  • a filler nozzle which is characterized in that it comprises an annular base, affording a skirt to which a circular opening in the container is offered and heat-sealed, an annular mouth blanked off by a breakable web and exhibiting a collar by way of which the nozzle engages the filler outlet of a batching machine; and a heat-sealable, thin-walled tube that interconnects the base and mouth and will flatten readily to the end of effecting a complete seal of the nozzle.
  • 1 denotes a filler nozzle, in its entirety, and 2 denotes the part of an aseptic container, or bag, to which it is attached.
  • the nozzle 1 comprises an annular base 3, affording an annular skirt 4 to which a circular opening in the relative bag 2 is offered and heat-­sealed.
  • the mouth 5 exhibits a collar 8 designed to locate against the gripping mechanism of a filling machine outlet (not illustrated) to which the nozzle 1 is offered.
  • the base 3 and the mouth 5 of the nozzle are inter­connected by a tube 10 in heat-sealable material, the thickness of which is noticeably less than that of the base and mouth themselves.
  • the thin wall of the tube 10 is easily flattened, as shown in fig 2, by two heated plates 11 forming part of the filling machine; accordingly, with the foodstuff batched into the bag beneath, the machine seals the nozzle by pinching the tube 10 and fusing a rectangular area of the wall, denoted 10a.
  • nozzle With a nozzle embodied in this fashion, it becomes possible to exploit the entire capacity of the bag and to ensure fully aseptic conditions at one and the same time, by virtue of the fact that the seal can be effected with the bag still connected to the filler outlet.
  • the nozzle itself will be moulded in a single piece from heat-sealable material, such as polythene, for maximum economy of manufacture.
