Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filling valve for filling portions of flowable products, in particular foodstuffs with lumpy components, from a filling container of a filling and closing machine, with an axially movable valve tappet arranged in a mouthpiece and designed as a valve slide (see, for example, EP-A-0 267 458).
  • the invention has for its object to provide a filling valve for portion-wise filling of flowable products of the type mentioned, with which a dripping or stringing is reliably prevented when filling flowable products with a small device structure.
  • valve tappet is connected to a vibration unit with which in the closed position the valve tappet can be set in vibration in the axial direction with a stroke in which the closing function of the valve tappet is maintained.
  • the vibration unit can be in operative connection either directly on a valve rod of the valve tappet or via a deflection mechanism with the valve tappet. In the latter case, the vibration unit can be arranged between a cylinder-piston unit for opening and closing the filling valve and a free arm of the reversing mechanism, or else directly on a bridge-like bearing part of the reversing mechanism.
  • the vibration unit can be pneumatic, electro-pneumatic or electrical.
  • Valve tappet in the direction of the closing movement makes it possible to hold the valve tappet in a precisely defined position at the end of the oscillation process. This is important because the valve tappet must have a certain starting position for the subsequent opening or closing movement.
  • a product tank 1 is connected to a filling device 2, which has a housing with a mouthpiece 3.
  • a suction valve 4 is arranged in the housing and is connected via an actuating lever 5 to a drive device 6, not shown in detail.
  • the actuating lever 5 can be moved in the direction of the double arrow 7.
  • a filling valve 8 which is composed of a valve tappet 9 designed as a valve slide, a valve rod 11 and likewise an actuating lever 10; the latter in turn leads to the drive device 6.
  • the drive of the filling valve is explained in more detail below with reference to FIG. 4.
  • In the area of the valve rod 11 there is a metering piston 12 which is guided to move back and forth in the direction of the double arrow 13.
  • the valve tappet 9 is designed as a so-called cutting tappet and, as can also be seen from FIGS. 2 and 3, is guided in a tappet guide 14 which in turn is inserted in the mouthpiece 3.
  • the Tappet guide 14 has lateral openings 15 through which, when the valve tappet 9 is raised, the product can flow through the lower outlet opening 16 into a vessel 17 located underneath.
  • the valve tappet 9 is moved rapidly downward via the valve rod 11 and the side passage openings 15 are closed, as shown in FIG. 3. From the same figure it can be seen that 9 product residues can stick to the end face 18 of the valve lifter. In order to shake them off or to distribute them evenly on the underside of the tappet, the valve tappet 9 is set in vibration.
  • the vibration stroke can be 5 to 10 mm. It is understood that the valve tappet 9 must not open the through openings 15.
  • the vibration frequency and the number of vibrations vary depending on the product. Good results for products with lumpy goods have been obtained at 30 to 40 Hz and with an oscillation number of preferably 0.5 to 4 oscillations. Half an oscillation is to be understood as an upward jolt.
  • the drive for generating the vibration of the valve lifter 9 can be achieved in a suitable manner.
  • a possible drive option is shown in FIG. 4.
  • the valve tappet 9 is connected to a deflection mechanism 19 by means of the valve rod 11.
  • This has a bridge-like bearing part 22 which is pivotally mounted about an essentially horizontal axis 23.
  • the bearing part 22 also has an actuating lever 21 for the valve rod 11 and a freely projecting arm 24.
  • the filling valve is thus opened and closed by a single device and, after the closing process, the valve tappet 9 is set into the vertical vibration movement by actuating the vibration unit 26.
  • the vibration unit is mounted on the bridge-like bearing part 22 and carries out the pivoting movement during the opening or closing process.
  • the operating lever 21 is pivotally mounted and driven in the vibration unit. During the opening or closing movement, the actuating lever 21 is held in a defined position in the vibration unit.
  • FIG. 6 shows a modified embodiment of the filling device 2.
  • the product tank 1 and the suction valve 4 with its drive are arranged laterally offset. This results in the possibility of arranging the vibration unit 26 and the cylinder-piston unit 27 for driving the valve tappet 9 directly on its valve rod 11.
