Definitions
- the invention relates to a vessel closure machine according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a vessel sealing machine is already known in which U-shaped, outwardly open pockets for the crown corks are formed on the underside of the sealing heads, from which the crown corks held by a permanent magnet in the ejector only protrude slightly downwards (DE-A- 1 947 169).
- the stripping device has a fixed edge which is arranged closely under the pockets and runs obliquely outwards. Bottle remains stuck in the capping heads can be excreted through the sloping edge.
- the removal of unprocessed crown corks is extremely problematic due to the small overhang, so that malfunctions caused by crown corks being fed in twice or getting caught in the area of the feed device cannot be ruled out.
- the invention has for its object to improve the effect of the stripping device in a generic vascular sealing machine with simple means such that protruding unprocessed crown corks or the like from the underside of the sealing heads or the like are safely and trouble-free removed from the sealing heads.
- a strong magnet which is arranged at a sufficient distance below the movement path of the closing heads, is sufficient so that it can hold a certain number of crown caps. From time to time, he has to be manually removed from the accumulated crown caps. It is also conceivable to use a plurality of magnets rotating on a closed path synchronously with the closing heads, each of which can remove a crown cap from a closing head. The crown caps can then be removed from the rotating magnets using a fixed scraper.
- the vessel closure machine shown only partially in FIGS. 1 and 2 is designed for closing beverage bottles, not shown, with metallic, magnetically influenceable crown caps 3. It has a drum-like rotor 17 with a vertical axis of rotation, on the circumference of which a plurality of closing heads 1 are evenly distributed and are arranged such that they can be moved vertically. If the rotor 17 rotates continuously in the direction of the arrow 18, the vertically aligned sealing heads 1 describe a circular orbit 19.
- each closing head 1 has a rotationally symmetrical closing cone 20 on its underside, in the interior of which a cylindrical ejector 21 is spring-mounted and can be moved in height.
- the ejector 21 is provided on its lower, horizontal end face with a holding magnet 2 for a crown cap 3. In its lower end position, the lower end face of the ejector 21 is somewhat higher than the lower end face of the closing cone 20 or the closing head 1. This forms a recess 10 which completely receives the crown cork 3 fixed by the holding magnet 2 without it protruding downward .
- a cam-shaped driver 9 protruding downward is formed on the back of each sealing head pointing in the opposite direction of the direction of the closing heads 1 a cam-shaped driver 9 protruding downward is formed.
- the drivers 9 are located in the center of the orbit 19 and are substantially narrower than a crown cork 3 in their cross-circumferential direction.
- the recesses 10 ensure an exactly centered cork seat, while the drivers 9 provide a positive, at any point in the orbit 19 reliable transport of crown caps 3 is possible.
- the capping heads 1 thus fitted with crown corks run to the capping zone, not shown, where the crown corks 3 are pressed against the bottle mouths and flanged by controlled lowering of the capping heads 1.
- the closing heads 1 then run generally empty back to the feed device 4, where they are again fitted with crown caps 3.
- a stripping device 5 is arranged for crown caps 3 which have not been processed in the sealing zone, for example as a result of the lack of the corresponding bottles, and therefore run back in the direction of the feeding device 4.
- the stripping device 5 has a horizontal plate 15, in which the feed device 4 is also integrated and which is formed by two vertical columns 24 fixed, not shown upper part of the vessel closure machine is removably attached.
- an arcuate, trough-shaped slideway 11 is incorporated, the width of which is slightly larger than the diameter of a crown cap 3.
- the slideway 11 is inclined slightly obliquely downward in the direction of rotation of the closing heads 1.
- the higher initial area of the slideway 11, the length of which corresponds approximately to a cork diameter, is arranged at a short distance below the orbit of the closing heads 1 and is slightly less inclined than the subsequent area.
- the slideway 11 is provided with a groove-shaped recess 12, into which the driver 9 is immersed with play.
- a magnet 6, 7, designed as a cylindrical permanent magnet, is fastened on both sides of the recess 12 from below in the plate 11 such that its upper end face lies just below the bottom surface of the slideway 11.
- the two magnets 6, 7 are strong enough to suddenly pull an unprocessed crown cap 3 against the force of the holding magnet 2 out of the recess 10 of a passing closing head 1 against the initial region of the slideway 11. This is shown on the right side of FIG. 2.
- Another, designed as a cylindrical permanent magnet magnet 8 sits in connection to the magnets 6, 7 centrally under the orbit 19 or the recess 12, such that its upper end face lies just below the bottom surface of the recess 12.
- the slideway 11 is provided on both longitudinal sides with parallel guide elements 13, 14 which engage from above on the lower edge of the crown caps 3 in the form of narrow metal strips which are screwed onto the plate 15.
- the guide elements 13, 14 prevent the crown caps 3 from being lifted off; the drivers 9 can pass freely between them.
- the guide elements 13, 14 are extended beyond the lower end of the slideway 11 and, in the region of their extension, run downward in the shape of an arc through a passage opening 16 in the plate 15.
- a crown cork 3 is pushed over the stationary slideway 11 by the driver 9 of the capping head 1 from which it has been removed.
