Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for transporting containers through filling and / or packaging systems by means of adapter-like carrier elements which are adapted to the outside of the shape of the respective filling or packaging system and to the inside of the contours of the containers passing through the system.
  • Carrier elements for receiving a container when passing through a filling and / or packaging system are known (EP 0 222 175), which are characterized by a bottom ring which only touches the bottom of a container to be used essentially along lines and / or points, with two diametrically opposite and in Mark the direction of rotation of the system to be arranged on ring sections to be arranged approximately perpendicular to the ring plane.
  • support elements are intended to ensure that filling and / or packaging systems of the type in question can be used for filling and packaging containers of the most varied types and sizes, without having to make any changes to the system when the container to be treated is changed by the support elements have constant outer contours optimally adapted to the respective system, while the inner contours are adapted to the object to be filled or packaged in such a way, that for each container shape to be handled, a sufficient number of suitable carrier elements is kept available for a specific system.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device by means of which the transport of containers through systems of the type in question can be made even simpler and more diverse.
  • each carrier element is equipped with an iron or magnetic plate arranged in a side wall of the carrier element, which cooperates with magnetic or iron belt conveyors rotating parallel to it and at the same height.
  • the individual carrier elements with containers located in them can be guided past certain manipulation stations in a particularly favorable manner, where certain manipulations, such as filling, closing, coding, printing, labeling or the like, are carried out, in order then, for example, after they have been detached from the Belt conveyors by means of baffles or the like.
  • certain manipulations such as filling, closing, coding, printing, labeling or the like
  • baffles or the like In the area of reversing drums to be fed to other device parts, where in turn other manipulations are carried out on the containers.
  • each support element is essentially U-shaped when viewed in plan view and an iron or magnetic plate is incorporated into the rear of the web of the U-shaped support element.
  • the containers can be inserted in the simplest way through the open side wall into the carrier elements and ejected again after the treatment, with an adequate clamping fit between the inner sides of the flanges of the U-shaped carrier elements and the containers naturally having to be ensured in order to achieve a ensure safe positioning of the containers during the manipulations to be carried out.
  • horizontally extending guide grooves or strips can be formed on the outer sides of the flanges of the U-shaped support elements, such that after leaving the iron or magnetic belt conveyor assigned to the magnetic or iron plates, the support elements can pass through other system parts which cooperate with corresponding guide strips or grooves with the guide grooves or strips in the flanges of the carrier elements.
  • the carrier elements can be provided with openings for manipulating the containers and / or serve to save weight.
  • an endless conveyor belt 1 runs in vertical planes around belt drums 2 with a vertical axis of rotation, the direction of conveyance being indicated by arrow 3.
  • the conveyor belt 1 consists of either magnetic or iron material. Such a conveyor belt 1 is provided for the transport of support elements 4 which are essentially U-shaped in plan, with a web of each U-shaped support element 4 connecting a front and rear flanges 5 connecting one on the back, not shown in FIG. 1
  • Iron or magnetic plate is arranged in such a way that by means of suitable guide elements, not shown, the carrier elements 4 fed to the conveyor belt 1 are attracted by magnetic forces from the stationary conveyor belt 2 and transported in the direction of the arrow 3, the lower end faces of the carrier element 4, of course a sliding surface, not shown, slide, as well as the containers, not shown in FIG. 1, which are inserted into the open side of the carrier elements and ejected after the treatment.
  • the inner surfaces of the web 6a and the flanges 5a are formed at right angles to one another, such that cuboid-shaped containers, such as e.g. Detergent packs or the like can be inserted with a clamp or friction seat.
  • An iron or magnetic plate 7 is incorporated into the web 6a, as indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 2, in such a way that it is preferably flush with the outer surface of the web 6a.
  • upper and lower recesses 8 are also formed in the web, which serve to eject a respectively treated container.
  • horizontal grooves 9 are formed which can be used to interact with corresponding stationary guide strips of the system.
  • openings 10 are formed in the flanges, which can be used to reach through manipulation elements or only to save weight.
  • the carrier element 4b shown in FIG. 3 essentially corresponds to the previously described carrier element 4a according to FIG. 2, with the exception that the inner contours are rounded in order to accommodate appropriately rounded containers, e.g. To be able to adapt detergent drums, i.e. that only the inner contours of flanges 5b and web 6b correspondingly deviate from the flat inner surfaces of the carrier element 4a according to FIG. 2.
  • the outer contours are completely identical for use in one and the same system for the carrier elements 4a and 4b according to FIGS. 2 and 3, so that an adaptation to one and the same system is possible without conversion problems on the system.
  • the outer surfaces of the flanges are concave in such a way that the support elements in question can easily pass other parts of the system in which there is no fixed guidance of the support elements.
  • the carrier elements are preferably made of wear-resistant and noise-insulating plastics by injection molding, as is also known.
  • the exemplary embodiments described can be modified in many ways without departing from the basic idea of the invention.
  • the carrier elements could also have a closed base ring or a receiving base for the containers u. Like. more.
