Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for filling liquid, pasty or pourable goods into reclosable containers such as bottles, glasses or the like according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such devices are known (see, for example, EP-A-3 68 058) and have the disadvantage that they are geared towards filling certain bottles with a certain medium. These bottles are filled in large automated systems with a high filling rate, whereby an individual intervention in the process sequence is not possible without interrupting the process. In such systems, the end user does not have the opportunity to fill their own bottles individually.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device of the type mentioned, by means of which it is possible for the end user to fill his own containers, such as empty bottles or glasses in particular, with liquid, pasty or pourable goods of his own choice in a hygienically perfect manner.
  • liquid, pasty or pourable products can be liquid foods such as milk, juices, cooking oil, lemonades, beer and mixed drinks, pasty foods such as yogurt, jams, honey and spreads and pourable foods such as sugar, salt, flour, rice, nuts, spices, tea or coffee.
  • liquid cleaning agents such as fabric softener, detergent, detergent concentrates, personal care products, vinegar cleaners and neutral cleaners, as well as pourable powder detergents, abrasives, dishwasher cleaners and salts; Bath salts, road salts, etc. are used.
  • the filling goods can be kept in containers, tanks or silos for filling.
  • the device encourages the reuse of containers, thereby removing them from the disposal cycle.
  • This eliminates the otherwise usual transport of packaging material such as boxes and pallets, so that the transport volume is greatly reduced and no special product and outer packaging is required. It is thus possible to form a closed cycle for the reusable packaging by reducing the amount of non-recyclable packaging.
  • An integrated cleaning system is provided to ensure the microbiologically correct provision and filling of the filling goods, especially the foodstuffs, which enables cyclical and needs-based cleaning of the system components in contact with the product.
  • a central one Control unit for the machine control controls all mechanical processes and produces all safety-relevant interlocks, whereby user-friendly operator guidance is provided.
  • Fig. 1 shows that the empties supplied by the consumer of the device 20 for filling liquid, pasty or pourable goods after selection of the desired product to be filled is first checked for bottle shape, damage, closure and cleanliness. Wrong and damaged bottle types are removed. The empties are then cleaned and, if necessary, sterilized. After the reusable bottle has been filled with the selected filling material, it is sealed with a recyclable sealing agent. Any bottle breakage that has occurred, however, is removed from the device 20. In order to determine the content of the filled reusable bottle to be calculated, it is weighed. Corresponding The reusable bottle is labeled on the basis of the weighing result, whereby a removal document is provided with an identifier such as a barcode and a price imprint. After the consumer has removed the refillable reusable bottle, payment is made either in the usual manner at a cash register or else at an automatic teller machine with a money exchange device.
  • a removal document is provided with an identifier such as a barcode and a price imprint.
  • the device 20 for filling liquid, pasty or pourable goods has a container selection station 21 with a downstream filling station 10 (FIGS. 2 and 3).
  • the container selection station 21 has a container test device 3 for checking and selecting the container type and for checking the container cleanliness, as well as a container test device 7 for checking the mechanical quality of containers which are permissible according to the class.
  • a product selection station 1, which has a keypad 23, is arranged on the container task 26 of the device 20.
  • the keypad 23 is used to specify the type of goods to be filled in empty containers.
  • a display 24 is arranged above the keypad 23 and is used for operator guidance and for information about the status of the empty containers entered into the device 20.
  • the product selection station 1 is connected to a receipt output 2, which prints out the empty containers that are actually to be filled in the individual case according to the number and filled in goods.
  • the container testing device 3 is arranged above the container feed 26. These are used to check whether the empty containers that have been checked in are permissible and sufficiently cleaned for the device 20. In the event of deviations from the target value, the relevant empty containers are dispensed into a collecting container 4. The container output will then shown on the display 24.
  • the empty containers checked and complained about in the container testing device 3 are then conveyed by means of the conveyor belt 6 through a protective door 5 into the area of the further container testing device 7. This checks whether the empty containers that are permissible per se have mechanical damage that impairs the proper handling of filled empty containers.
  • Damaged empty containers are dispensed into a collecting container 9, which is also shown in the display 24 of the product selection station 1.
  • the container test device 7 is followed by a cleaning station 22, in which the containers are cleaned aseptically by means of steam or hot air.
  • the empty containers thus prepared then arrive in the labeling station 8, in which the empty containers are provided with labels for later identification in accordance with the data entered in the product selection station 1.
  • the empty containers are fed from the labeling station 8 into the filling station 10.
  • the filling station 10 is connected to the conveyor belt 6 and to a further conveyor belt 11, which is used to remove the filled containers.
  • the conveyor belts 6, 11 are arranged parallel to one another.
  • the filling devices 25 of the filling station 10 are located between the conveyor belts 6, 11.
  • Each filling device 25 is provided for a liquid, pasty or pourable material and is connected to a storage container 16 or 17 by means of a line arrangement 18 or 19.
  • the storage containers 16 and 17, as shown in FIG. 1, are spaced apart from the device 20 and can be provided cooled or uncooled in special storage rooms.
  • Each filling device 25 has a displacement device 12 which can be moved between the conveyor belts 6, 11 and which serves to transport an empty container from the conveyor belt 6 under the filling nozzle of the respective filling device 25 and, after filling, for further transport to the other conveyor belt 11.
  • the filled containers are fed to a container closure device 14 and closed there with adapted closures.
  • the closed containers then arrive at the exit of the conveyor belt 11 in a collecting station 15 and can be removed manually from this.
  • a storage container 16, 17 for a filling material is connected to the filling element 36 of the filling device 25 by means of connecting lines.
  • the connecting lines are led through a cooling tube 32, which is surrounded by insulation 33.
  • Coolant lines 34 which are connected to a cooler 28, are guided through the cooling pipe 32 and the filling member 36.
  • the filling material of the reusable bottle 29 can be fed at a defined temperature, insofar as the filling material is a food.
  • the connection lines and the filling element 36 are cleaned with a cleaning solution which is located in a container 27.
  • a sterilization device 35 is provided which can be operated, for example, with CO 2 + N 2 and sterile air as the sterilization agent can and if necessary serves to sterilize the reusable bottle 29 to be filled.
  • the reusable bottle is lifted out of the transport plane 31 by means of a pressure cylinder 30 and pressed against the filling element 36.
