Definitions

  • the aseptic chamber is designed as a tunnel extending in the longitudinal direction of the machine, through which the cup-like containers to be filled are transported by means of a chain.
  • the entire tunnel interior must be continuously supplied with aseptic air in order to maintain a higher pressure in the filling chamber than in the preceding sterilization chamber and in the surroundings. The effort for operating such a device is therefore great.
  • the object is achieved in a device of the type mentioned in that the lower boundary wall of the aseptic chamber is formed by the transport device, which is sealed on an annular wall of the housing, that the containers are inserted into holders of the transport device, and that the areas of the filling openings containing the Containers protrude through the transport device so that only this area and the interior of the containers are connected to the aseptic chamber.
  • the housing containing the aseptic chamber is preferably hermetically sealed except for the container inlet and the container outlet. This leads to the advantage that the device can also be kept sufficiently clean outside the actual aseptic chamber. In particular, there is the advantage that both the aseptic chamber and the housing surrounding it can be subjected to a washing process from time to time which is used to sterilize the entire machine at periodic intervals, for example once a day.
  • a, preferably the lower, boundary of the aseptic chamber is formed by the transport device itself, which is designed as a carrier that transports the containers.
  • the transport device itself, which is designed as a carrier that transports the containers.
  • the carrier a rotating step-by-step indexing table rotating about a vertical axis, the circumference of which is guided close to the housing surrounding it.
  • Such a cycle table ensures, for example in comparison to a chain transport, an outer exact movement sequence and a high positioning accuracy.
  • such a tactical table can be installed in a relatively limited space, so that a very compact design is created.
  • the cycle table is expediently designed in the form of a disk and provided with holders which clamp the containers on the outer circumference. With such a configuration, additional coupling means for the containers can be dispensed with.
  • the aseptic chamber is under atmospheric pressure. This reduces any sealing problems.
  • the containers (3) After alignment in station (8), the containers (3) remain permanently clamped so that the orientation is no longer lost. This is done in that the container (3) is taken over and held by another pair of jaws in station (8), while the holding jaws (11 and 12) move back in the open state.
  • the holding jaws (11, 12) can be moved alternately in the direction of the arrows (K and L), so that in each case a group of three containers (3) can be transported further in the direction of the arrow (B).
  • Each holding jaw (11, 12) is in turn movable in the transverse direction, i.e. according to the arrow directions (M and N) or (P and Q).
  • the station (8) for aligning the containers (3) is finally followed by a station (13), which is only indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 2 and contains the devices, for example, about a closure piece (17) assigned to the filling opening (9) on the can lid (16) local seal and erect (see also Fig. 3).
  • the closure piece a so-called pull tab, remains open and erected, so that the container (3) subsequently can be cleaned and filled.
  • the pull tab is fed from a film roll, not shown, and cut off.
  • the rails (23) are designed as tubes to which a washing system, which will be explained later, is connected.
  • the transport unit (4) which in each case removes a group of three containers (3) from the housing (6) in the direction of the arrow (C), takes over the sterilized, filled and closed containers (3) from the cycle table (21). Further stations for possible additional work, for example signing, can be provided here.
  • the container outlet is labeled (25).
  • the transport unit (4) is also mechanically driven by the base machine (1), with all important movements of the individual stations being generated mechanically via cam mechanisms.
  • the basic machine (1) which contains a base frame (26) for all mechanical drives, has the tact table (21), which has a total of three rows (81) (see FIG. 2) for the containers (3) to be treated.
  • the multi-row tact table (21) is incremented. It is assigned a so-called lifting yoke (27) which has a plate (28) for holding tools, for example blowing nozzles (40) for hot air or filling heads (41) for liquid contents (see FIG. 1).
  • An essential component of the housing (6) placed on the base machine (1) is an essentially circular aseptic chamber (29) which has a rectangular cross section with an upper boundary wall (75) through which the individual tools are guided.
  • the lower boundary wall of the aseptic chamber (29) is formed by the tact table (21), which has the shape of a circular disc and is guided with its circumference close to the ring wall of the housing (6), which in this area also forms the ring wall of the aseptic chamber ( 29) forms.
  • the aseptic chamber (29) thus consists in principle of the side walls and the roof of the housing (6) and a bottom, which through the tact table (21) and the inside of the sterilizing container (3) is formed.
  • the aseptic chamber (29) is used for the actual sterilization of the relevant parts of the container (3) and is located in the housing (6), which in turn is largely hermetically sealed from the outside.
  • the aseptic chamber (29) see FIGS. 1 and 3) only the can lids (16) penetrating the tact table (21) and the pull tabs (17) protrude (FIG. 3), ie the areas of the filling openings (9) preferably designed as cardboard boxes container (3). This means that only these parts of the exterior of the can need to be sterilized. A new introduction of germs is low with this arrangement.
  • the inside of the container (3), the can lid (16) and the pull tabs (17) are sterilized in one go, ie no separate devices for sterilizing the closures (17) are necessary.
  • the sterilization process takes place under atmospheric pressure.
  • the described shape of the inside of the aseptic chamber (29) brings specific technical advantages.
  • the heating of the surface of the container (3) required before sterilization can be carried out at a much lower temperature, since it is now possible to heat the container (3) from the inside with sterile hot air, but from the outside with conventional heating elements.
  • the sterile hot air which heats the inside of the container (3), can be kept at a low temperature level since the heating is supported from the outside. Compared to conventional devices, the temperature was reduced by 80 ° to 120 ° Celsius.
  • Containers (3) which are normally coated with polyester on the inside, are treated more gently in this way. In addition, expensive sterile air is saved.
  • the housing (6) is provided with suction devices (36, 37, 38) (Fig. 1) which are connected both to the aseptic chamber (29) and to the areas above or below.
  • a suction device (36) is also assigned to the area (74) of the housing (6) above the aseptic chamber (29).
  • the tools for the individual 30 workstations (42 to 71) described below are mounted on the lifting yoke (27), which can be raised and lowered in the direction of the arrow (H and I), so that the tools can be delivered to the containers (3).
  • the first station (42) of the cycle table (21) is assigned to the container inlet (18) and is used to insert a group of three (20) of containers (3) from below into the holders (24) of the cycle table (21).
  • Each container (3) of the group of three (20) is assigned to a row (81).
  • the subsequent stations (43 and 44) form a lock (33) between the zones (30 and 31) already described.
  • An empty station (45) follows.
  • the containers (3) are preheated with hot air, so that later on, when the container (3) is sterilized, too large drops do not form.
  • steam is then generated from an aqueous solution of approx. 65 % Water and approx. 35% hydrogen peroxide is obtained and introduced into the interior of the containers (3) through the filling openings (9), the area of the containers (3) surrounding the filling opening (9) above the cycle table (21) also being sterilized becomes.
  • An empty station (48) follows again.
  • the eight subsequent stations (49 to 56) of the zone (31) serve to blow in hot air in order to dry the containers (3) completely.
  • a blower for sterile air is located on the lock (34) between the zones (31, 32), at the stations (57, 58).
  • the following zone (32) serves to fill and close the sterilized containers (3).
  • Two filling heads (59, 61) are provided, with an empty station (60) in between, which is kept free for further customer requests.
  • foam suction takes place, in the station (63), if desired, inert gas can be blown in.
  • the subsequent stations (64, 65) are used for heat sealing and subsequent cold resealing of the individual pull tabs (17).
  • An empty station (66) preferably follows.
  • the stations (67, 68) again form a lock (35) between the zones (32 and 30). This is followed by the station (69) for discharging a group of three (20) of containers (3) from the tact table (21). This is done in that a stamp mounted in the lifting yoke (27) pushes the container (3) from above out of the holder (24 or 24 ') of the cycle table (21).
  • the stations (70 and 71) can be provided for identifying the containers, for example the date or the like.
  • Narrow gaps in the aseptic chamber (29) and the locks (33, 34 and 35) between the individual zones (30, 31, 32) of the aseptic chamber (29) keep in connection with the suction devices (36, 37, 38) and blower devices (39) maintain the flow conditions within the aseptic chamber (29) which are important for the sterility of the machine.
  • additional sterile cooling air is supplied via a blower device, so that a slight overpressure arises compared to the remaining zones (30 and 31) and no contaminated atmosphere can get into the filling area.
  • the amount of air required is only very small because of the relatively small cross section of the aseptic chamber (29) and the division into zones.
  • a washing process is carried out for cleaning and sterilizing the entire machine.
  • Various line systems are provided for this, for example a washing device (76) with blowing openings (not shown in more detail) and a sterile air device (72) with blowing devices (73) which are directed both into the aseptic chamber (29) and into the space (74) above it .
  • the transport unit (2) and the transport unit (4) are automatically decoupled from the drive of the base machine (1), so that the openings for the container inlet (18) and the container outlet (25) can be hermetically closed. In this state, the machine is subjected to the washing process.
  • the washing device consists of line systems (not shown in more detail) for supplying, shutting off and distributing the washing media and also heating devices.
  • the device in the broader sense includes devices for extracting hot air, sterile air and devices for sterilizing and supplying the filling material, as well as devices for preparing and supplying and removing the washing media, which have not yet been described in more detail.
