Abstract

PCT No. PCT/EP97/00604 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 26, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 26, 1998 PCT Filed Feb. 10, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/30203 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 21, 1997A device for metering out a paste-like material includes a connector for connecting the mouth of a flexible container to a positive-displacement pump, means for compressing, over a limited area, a bag filled with the paste so that the paste is acted on at this point by shear forces and at the same time squeezed towards the mouth of the bag. A suction pump is located behind the positive-displacement pump. The devices makes it possible to meter highly viscous pastes from flexible bags simply and without interruption, even when the paste includes trapped air.

Description

..Gerät zum Entnehmen und Dosieren von Pasten, insbesondere Waschmittel¬ pasten"..Device for removing and dosing pastes, especially detergent pastes "
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gerät zum Entnehmen und Dosieren von insbesondere thixotropen Pasten, bevorzugt für in gewerblichen Wäschereien verwendete hochviskose Waschmittelpasten, aus ihrem mit einer Öffnung versehenen flexi¬ blen Behälter, mit einem Anschluß für die Öffnung an eine Verdrängerpumpe und mit Mitteln zum Zusammendrücken des Beutels auf einer begrenzten Fläche und in Richtung auf die Öffnung, so daß an dieser Stelle gleichzeitig Scherkräfte auf die Pasten wirken und die Paste in Richtung auf die Öffnung gefördert wird.The invention relates to a device for removing and dosing, in particular, thixotropic pastes, preferably for highly viscous detergent pastes used in commercial laundries, from their flexible container provided with an opening, with a connection for opening to a displacement pump and with means for compressing the bag on a limited area and in the direction of the opening, so that shear forces act simultaneously on the pastes at this point and the paste is conveyed in the direction of the opening.
Derartige Geräte sind bekannt, z. B. aus der DE 44 14 708 A1 oder der DE 44 16 089 A1. Durch die Mittel zum Zusammendrücken des Beutels, z. B. eine auf einer schrägen Rampe abrollende Walze, wird die Paste aus den Behältern durch die Öffnung in die Förderleitung gepreßt und von dort mit der Verdränger¬ pumpe weitertransportiert, z. B. zu einem Mischbehälter. Im Falle von Waschmit¬ telpasten wird in diesem Mischbehälter eine Stammlauge durch Hinzufügen von Wasser hergestellt, die dann zu den einzelnen gewerblichen Waschmaschinen problemlos gepumpt werden kann.Such devices are known, for. B. from DE 44 14 708 A1 or DE 44 16 089 A1. By means of compressing the bag, e.g. B. a roll rolling on an inclined ramp, the paste is pressed out of the containers through the opening into the delivery line and transported from there with the displacement pump, z. B. to a mixing container. In the case of detergent pastes, a base liquor is produced in this mixing container by adding water, which can then be pumped to the individual commercial washing machines without any problems.
Bei der Produktion der mit den hochviskosen Pasten gefüllten flexiblen Behältern ist es jedoch nicht zu vermeiden, daß diese Behälter Lufteinschlüsse enthalten. Die damit auftretenden Luftblasen in der Förderleitung führen zu Störungen bei der Verdrängerpumpe und damit zu einer Unterbrechung der Dosierung. Insbe¬ sondere bei älteren Verdrängerpumpen, bei denen durch natürlichen Verschleiß die Toleranzen vergrößert worden sind, treten diese Probleme auf. Auch beim Einsatz von Verdrängerpumpen, die in der Lage sind, Lufteinschlüsse zu tolerieren, treten Dosierprobleme auf. Zwar wird die Dosierung nicht unter¬ brochen, aber die Dosiergenauigkeit wird schlechter.During the production of the flexible containers filled with the highly viscous pastes, however, it cannot be avoided that these containers contain air pockets. The resulting air bubbles in the delivery line lead to malfunctions in the positive displacement pump and thus to an interruption in the metering. These problems occur in particular in older positive displacement pumps in which the tolerances have been increased due to natural wear. Dosing problems also occur when using positive displacement pumps that are able to tolerate air pockets. The dosing is not interrupted, but the dosing accuracy becomes worse.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einem Gerät der eingangs genannten Art ein störungsfreies, exaktes Dosieren auch dann zu erreichen, wenn die mit den Pasten gefüllten flexiblen Behälter Lufteinschlüsse aufweisen.The invention is therefore based on the object of achieving trouble-free, precise dosing in a device of the type mentioned at the outset, even if the flexible containers filled with the pastes have air pockets.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch eine hinter der Verdränger¬ pumpe angeordnete Saugpumpe. Die Erfinder haben nämlich herausgefunden, daß eine an dieser Stelle angeordnete Saugpumpe in der Lage ist, durch die laufende Verdrängerpumpe hindurch die Luft aus dem flexiblen Beutel anzusau¬ gen, so daß der Verdrängerpumpe ein luftblasenfreier Pastenstrom zugeführt wird.This object is achieved according to the invention by means of a suction pump arranged behind the displacement pump. The inventors have found that a suction pump arranged at this point is able to draw in air from the flexible bag through the running displacement pump, so that an air bubble-free paste stream is fed to the displacement pump.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung, insbesondere wenn es sich um ein Gerät zum Entnehmen und Dosieren von Waschmittelpa¬ sten handelt, schlagen die Erfinder vor, daß die Saugpumpe als Strahlpumpe mit Wasser als Treibmedium ausgebildet ist. Zum einen bietet diese Art von Saug¬ pumpe Vorteile hinsichtlich der Anschaffungs- und Betriebskosten sowie des Platzbedarfs. Andererseits kann das eingesetzte Treibmedium zum ohnehin not¬ wendigen Vorvermischen der Pasten zu einer Stammlauge eingesetzt werden. Bei entsprechender Wahl des Wasserdrucks sowie des Düsenquerschnitts kann der Wasserdurchsatz entsprechend der gewünschten Konzentration der Stammlauge eingestellt werden. Vorzugsweise ist hinter dem Injektor ein Rück¬ schlagventil vorgesehen.In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, in particular if it is a device for removing and dosing detergent pastes, the inventors propose that the suction pump be designed as a jet pump with water as the propellant. On the one hand, this type of suction pump offers advantages in terms of acquisition and operating costs and space requirements. On the other hand, the propellant used can be used to premix the pastes into a base liquor, which is necessary anyway. With a suitable choice of water pressure and nozzle cross-section, the water throughput can be adjusted according to the desired concentration of the base liquor. A check valve is preferably provided behind the injector.
Eine besonders problemlose Betriebsweise des erfindungsgemäßen Geräts läßt sich erreichen, wenn am Auslaß der Strahlpumpe eine Auslaßleitung ange¬ schlossen ist und deren strahlpumpenseitiges Ende im Betrieb nach oben gerich- tet ist. In diesem Fall wird nach dem Abschalten des Gerätes ein Entleeren der Strahlpumpe vermieden, so daß bei einer erneuten Inbetriebnahme unmittelbar nach dem Einschalten der gewünschte Saugdruck erreicht wird, ohne daß zusätzliche Maßnahmen erforderlich sind.A particularly problem-free mode of operation of the device according to the invention can be achieved if an outlet line is connected to the outlet of the jet pump and its end on the jet pump side points upwards during operation. is. In this case, emptying of the jet pump is avoided after the device has been switched off, so that the desired suction pressure is achieved immediately after switching on again, without additional measures being required.
Besonders bewährt hat sich das erfindungsgemäße Gerät, wenn die Verdrän¬ gerpumpe als Schneckenpumpe, insbesondere als Exzenterschneckenpumpe ausgebildet ist. Aber auch der Einsatz anderer Verdrängerpumpen liegt im Rah¬ men der Erfindung.The device according to the invention has proven particularly useful if the displacement pump is designed as a screw pump, in particular as an eccentric screw pump. However, the use of other positive displacement pumps is also within the scope of the invention.
Im folgenden wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand von Zeichnun¬ gen näher beschrieben.An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described in more detail below with reference to drawings.

Das Pastendosiergerät nach einem erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsbeispiel hat ein starres Grundgestell 1 , gegenüber dem eine im oberen Bereich vorgesehene schiefe Ebene 2 beweglich ist. Auf der Ebene 2 kann ein mit Waschmittelpaste gefüllter, aus Polyethylen bestehender Beutel aufgelegt werden, in dessen Öff¬ nung der Anschlußstutzen 3 einer vom Motor 4 angetriebenen Exzenter¬ schneckenpumpe 5 hineinragt. Die Schneckenpumpe 5, die die Dosierpumpe darstellt, drückt die Paste in ein Auslaufrohr 6, an dessen Ende ein Injektor (Strahlpumpe) 7 mit nachfolgendem Rückschlagventil angebracht ist. Der Injektor 7 wird mit Wasser aus einer Zulaufleitung 8 mit einem Wasser-Einlaufventil 9 betrieben. Das Wasser-Paste-Gemisch wird durch eine Schlauchleitung 10 zur Mischkammer 11 geleitet, wo es in der aus der DE 44 14 708 A1 bekannten Weise mit weiterem Wasser zu einer Stammlauge verarbeitet wird, die dann mit der Pumpe 12 zu den einzelnen gewerblichen Waschmaschinen gefördert wer- den kann. Die Einzelheiten des Gerätes bis auf den Bereich zwischen der Ex¬ zenterschneckenpumpe 5 und der Mischkammer 11 sind ausführlich in der be¬ reits genannten DE 44 14 708 A1 erläutert und sollen daher hier nicht noch ein¬ mal genannt werden. Zum Zwecke der Offenbarung wird ausdrücklich auf diese Druckschrift verwiesen, deren Inhalt zum Offenbarungsgehalt der vorliegenden Anmeldung gemacht wird.The paste dosing device according to an exemplary embodiment according to the invention has a rigid base frame 1, against which an inclined plane 2 provided in the upper region can be moved. On level 2 a polyethylene-filled bag filled with detergent paste can be placed, into the opening of which the connecting piece 3 of an eccentric screw pump 5 driven by the motor 4 projects. The screw pump 5, which is the metering pump, presses the paste into an outlet pipe 6, at the end of which an injector (jet pump) 7 with a subsequent check valve is attached. The injector 7 is operated with water from an inlet line 8 with a water inlet valve 9. The water-paste mixture is passed through a hose 10 to the mixing chamber 11, where it is processed in the manner known from DE 44 14 708 A1 with further water to form a base liquor, which is then pumped 12 to the individual commercial washing machines who- that can. The details of the device except for the area between the eccentric screw pump 5 and the mixing chamber 11 are explained in detail in the already mentioned DE 44 14 708 A1 and should therefore not be mentioned again here. For the purpose of disclosure, reference is expressly made to this document, the content of which is made the disclosure content of the present application.
Die Schlauchleitung 10 ist unmittelbar nach dem Anschluß an den Injektor zu einer Schlaufe geformt, so daß das am Injektor angeschlossene Ende der Schlauchleitung 10 nach oben gerichtet ist, wodurch eine Entleerung des Injek¬ tors bei einer Betriebsunterbrechung vermieden wird. Der Deutlichkeit halber sind in Fig. 2 Pfeile zur Kennzeichnung der Strömungsrichtung eingezeichnet.The hose line 10 is formed into a loop immediately after connection to the injector, so that the end of the hose line 10 connected to the injector is directed upward, thereby avoiding emptying of the injector when the operation is interrupted. For the sake of clarity, arrows to indicate the direction of flow are shown in FIG. 2.
