Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a device for rinsing bottles, intended for rotary machines, which is particularly applicable to industrial processes for bottling for rinsing new bottles.
  • industrial bottling plants include a series of machines which are arranged in a continuous process to carry out all the operations of bottling liquids.
  • rotary machines which are intended for rinsing new bottles, that is to say, bottles leaving the factory and which are subjected to their first filling.
  • These rotary rinsing machines are basically structured on a circular carousel tangentially associated with a device for feeding new bottles and with a device for extracting rinsed bottles.
  • On said carousel are installed radially a set of rinsing devices which perform individually and successively, during the time it takes the carousel to perform a turn, the operations which can be summarized as follows.
  • the rinsing device takes the bottle supplied by the supply device. It overturns the bottle in the opposite position to that which it occupied on the supply device. Then he injects a liquid or air inside the bottle to rinse or blow it. Finally, it turns the rinsed bottle in the opposite direction and leads it to the rinsed bottle extraction device. It is in this last operation, if it turns out to be necessary, that the rinsing device eliminates the possible drop coming from the residual liquid which could wet the outside of the bottle.
  • the theoretical diameter reached by the longitudinal axis of the bottle in its inverted position, or diameter rinsing is less than the theoretical diameter occupied by this axis when it was entered by the rinsing device.
  • This reduction in the theoretical fixing diameter greatly reduces the number of rinsing devices which, with equal dimensions, can be coupled to the rinser carousel, since it goes without saying that the distance between the rinsing devices is precisely determined by the dimensions, diameter or width, of the bottles and, therefore, that the reduction in the fixing diameter inevitably implies a reduction in the number of rinsing devices coupled to the carousel.
  • this installation of the cannula can be obtained from two ways. Either the cannula remains static, which limits or even prevents its penetration inside the bottle and in certain cases, can give rise to an insufficient rinsing, or the cannula is subjected to displacements which aim at its introduction into the bottle.
  • the known embodiments of rinsing devices include mechanisms which either print the cannula a single vertical cyclic movement in both directions, or print that a displacement, also cyclic, consisting of a horizontal displacement or of approximation to the longitudinal axis of the bottle, in a double vertical displacement and in a horizontal displacement back to the original position of the cannula, which position is parallel to the quoted longitudinal axis of the bottle.
  • These mechanisms for moving the cannula generally have a high economic cost, and the mechanisms which place the cannula in a rest position parallel to that of the bottle have the additional disadvantage of limiting the diameter or the surface of the bottle to be rinsed. to avoid collision or shock between the body of the bottle and this cannula.
  • valves which control the injection of liquid or air inside the bottle are generally of the type of conical seat provided with a recovery spring; these valves include a series of closing and sealing seals and, due to their nature and for hygienic reasons, must be subjected to a constant internal cleaning which increases the cost of maintenance of the rinsing device and, by Therefore, the rinser.
  • the rinsing device which is the subject of the invention comprises a longitudinal support, one end of which - the interior - can be coupled to the carousel of the rinser and, the other end of which - the exterior - is equipped with a fixing mechanism, an injection valve controlling the injection of liquid or rinsing air inside the bottle and a rinsing mechanism.
  • the fixing mechanism comprises clamps provided with non-slip elements profiled according to the shape of the neck of the bottle to be grasped; this mechanism is associated with a concentric guide relative to the carousel which determines the rotational movements of the seized bottle.
  • the rinsing mechanism includes a cannula fitted with a tank for collecting the rinsing liquid.
  • the synchronization of the operation of the fixing mechanism, of the injection valve and of the rinsing mechanism is effected by means of rollers which are mounted in these mechanisms and in this valve and are moved by buffers installed for this purpose, when they reach certain predetermined positions which are defined in a particular way for each rinser.
  • the rinsing device which is the subject of this invention is characterized in that the fixing mechanism comprises the following elements: a main elbow-shaped body which is joined, by its outer side and by its upper end, to the longitudinal support of the device so that it can rotate at least 180 ° relative to this support; in the inner side of the main body and outside of the latter, two superposed and parallel guide rollers between them between which the concentric guide slides very precisely with respect to the carousel, which guide rollers are arranged so that the extensions of their respective longitudinal axes are equidistant from the axis of rotation of the main body; in the lower end of the main body, clamps installed orthogonally, the hinge axis of which is installed outside the inner side of the main body; one of the arms of these clamps is fixed to the main body and the other, which is mobile, has its origin in the axis of articulation and is extended by a longitudinal extension whose free end is provided with a roller opening of the clamps which retains an orthogonal plane with respect to this extension;
  • the fixing mechanism operates as follows.
  • the rinsing device which is the object of this invention, reaches a position close to the fixing position
  • the opening roller installed in the extension of the movable arm of the clamps of the fixing mechanism, is moved by a first buffer provided for this purpose; this movement then causes the clamps to open, forcing the opposition of the fixing spring. It is under these conditions that the neck of the bottle is introduced inside the clamps by the supply device mentioned above.
  • the fixing spring proceeds, by elastic reaction, to close the clamps, which involves gripping the bottle.
  • the concentric guide relative to the carousel describes a helical rotation at the same time as it moves coaxially and occupies an external and equidistant position relative to the axis of rotation of the fixing mechanism.
  • This rotation and this displacement of the concentric guide in turn produce, in the fixing mechanism, a rotation of 180 ° around its axis of rotation, so that the bottle, gripped by the clamps of the mechanism, now occupies the reverse position the one she had when she was grabbed by these pliers. It is in this inverted, vertical position that the liquid or rinsing air is injected inside the bottle.
  • the concentric guide describes a new helical rotation at the same time as it moves coaxially and occupies an internal position similar to the position prior to that of the gripping of the bottle.
  • the rotation and displacement of the concentric guide in turn produces, in the fixing mechanism, a further rotation of 180 ° in the opposite direction, so that the bottle gripped by the clamps of the mechanism is placed in the starting position or fixation.
  • the action of a second stopper provided for this purpose opens the clamps, which allows recovery of the bottle by the extraction device for rinsed bottles.
  • the injection valve which controls the injection of the liquid or the air inside the bottle comprises: an elongated main body and hollow disposed orthogonally to the support of the device with which it is integral; this main body is provided, in its upper end, with a closing flap provided with a centered orifice passing, in its lower end, with an orifice passing coaxially with the orifice of the closing valve and, arranged transversely and diametrically, two through holes; an intermediate body, elongated, hollow and open on the side of its lower end, which can slide with precision through the main body; this intermediate body has, in its upper end, a centered orifice passing, and transversely and diametrically opposite, the respective pass-through orifices whose dimensions coincide with those of the transverse orifices of the main body opposite which they are located; an upper or blocking axis which can slide longitudinally through the through holes of the upper ends of the main and intermediate body; this axi
  • the means for actuating the injection valve of the rinsing mechanism comprises an opening lever, which is of the first kind.
  • the fulcrum of this lever is in an extension located in the lower end of the main body of the valve, its force arm is equipped with an opening roller in its free end and its resistance arm, which forms a certain angle with the force arm, is constantly supported on the opening collar of the injection valve.
  • the rinsing device which is the subject of the invention also has the characteristic that the means for blocking the injection valve comprise a blocking lever, which is of the first kind, the fulcrum of which is located on the longitudinal support between the fixing mechanism and the injection valve, the force arm of which can be moved under the action of the movable arm of the clamps of the fixing mechanism, and the resistance arm, which forms an angle with the arm by force, can be included between the locking collar and the shut-off valve of the injection valve;
  • the locking lever is equipped with a recovery spring which, in the absence of force, that is to say, when this mobile arm does not exert any action on the force arm, places the arm force in a position close to the position of the clamps during rotation of the rinse bottle, and the resistance arm between the locking collar and the shut-off valve of the injection valve.
  • the rinsing device which is the subject of this invention reaches a position close to the rinsing position.
  • a first case where the fixing mechanism transports the bottle to be rinsed in the corresponding inverted position and, a second case where, for whatever reason, this fixing device does not transport this bottle.
  • the injection valve allows the passage of the liquid or the rinsing air through it and the injection corresponding to the inside of the bottle by means of the cannula of the rinsing mechanism.
  • the action of the blocking means does not allow the passage of the liquid or the rinsing air through the valve and consequently prevents its spillage.
  • the injection valve operates in the following manner.
  • the resistance arm of the locking lever is located between the locking collar and the closure valve of the injection valve, which prevents the displacement of the valve locking pin or, in other words, the displacement of its corresponding closing seat.
  • the locking seats of the locking and opening axes exert pressure, by elastic reaction of the opening and locking springs, on the flexible conduit which, by elastic deformation, prevents the passage of the liquid or the rinsing air through it.
  • a stopper provided for this purpose moves the opening roller of the force arm of the opening lever; this displacement causes the resistant arm, which rests continuously on the opening collar, to move the intermediate body of the valve and subject the opening and blocking springs to greater compression, thereby ensuring separation valve closing seats and passage therethrough, by elastic reaction of the flexible conduit, the liquid or flushing air.
  • the stopper mentioned ceases to act on the force arm of the opening lever, and the opening and blocking springs, by elastic reaction, actuate the opening axis and, consequently, the intermediate body with which it is integral, so that its closing seat exerts pressure on the flexible duct and again prevents the passage of the liquid or the rinsing air.
  • the resistance arm of the locking lever is not located between the locking collar and the shut-off valve of the injection valve, due to the action of the movable arm of the clamps of the fixing mechanism.
  • the closing seats of the opening and blocking pins exert pressure, by elastic reaction of the blocking spring, on the flexible conduit and prevents the passage of the liquid or the rinsing air.
  • the stopper mentioned moves the opening roller of the force arm of the opening lever and, as described above, moves the intermediate body of the valve by subjecting the opening spring for greater compression.
  • the opening spring actuates the intermediate body and the locking pin until they return to their position initial in which the closing seats exert pressure on the flexible duct and prevent the passage of the liquid or the rinsing air.
  • the resistance arm of the locking lever returns to its position between the locking collar and the valve closing valve, under the impulse of the recovery spring, when the fixing mechanism leaves the rinsing position.
  • the rinsing mechanism comprises a positioning lever, which is of the first kind, in which the fulcrum is located in the longitudinal support of the device between its inner end and the injection valve, the force arm is equipped in its free end with a positioning roller and the resistance arm, which forms a certain angle with the force arm, is coupled integrally to the cannula and recovery tank; the positioning lever is equipped with a recovery spring which, in the absence of force, places this cannula and this recovery tank in the rinsing position, in which the cannula can be introduced inside the bottle to rinse which is transported by the fixing mechanism.
  • the positioning lever which includes the cannula and the recovery tank, works as follows.
  • a first stopper provided for this purpose moves the positioning roller so that the cannula and the recovery tray are moved from their initial position and describe a trajectory which locates them below the mentioned rinsing position, position in which they are held by this first stop.
  • the first stop stops acting on the positioning roller and the elastic reaction of the recovery spring activates the cannula and the recovery tank which describe a trajectory in opposite directions so that the cannula returns to its original position and is located inside the bottle and, therefore, is able to inject the liquid or the rinsing air.
  • a second stopper provided for this purpose moves the positioning roller so that the cannula and the recovery tray start to move again and to describe a trajectory which locates them below the rinsing position, or, in other words, the cannula is extracted from the interior of the bottle.

As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the guide 12 has a quadrangular cross section, unlike other known embodiments of rinsing devices in which this guide has a circular section, which has the effect that the largest contact area between the guide 12 and the two guide rollers 6 produces a slower wear of the latter which, in this way, retain their properties for a longer period of time.

In this way, the bottle 10 is placed in the inverted or rinsing position as shown in Figure 3.
