Definitions
- the invention relates to a filling device according to the Preamble of claim 1.
- the aim of the invention is to avoid these disadvantages and propose a filling device of the type mentioned at the outset, which is characterized by a simple structure and the an extensive sealing of the sack to be filled with the Filling device is ensured. It should also go through an easy exchange of fewer parts may be possible, an adjustment the filling device on sacks with different dimensions to make their openings.
- the proposed measures make it simple possible from a length-oriented for attaching a sack Cross-sectional shape of narrow width one for the filling process optimal, approximately circular or elliptical Shape cross section. Because the elastically deformable filler neck via a simple mechanical interface with the rest Mechanics of the filling device can also be connected a very easy replacement of the filler neck and thus one Adaptation to a changed geometry of the to be filled Sacks possible.
- the proposed measures also result in the Possibility of a very extensive sealing of the sack during the filling process, so that hardly any worth mentioning Dust pollution in the environment results, even if it is very fine-grained Goods are filled. It is also through use an elastically deformable material for the filler neck also ensured that the filler neck on the one hand the largely closed state opened bag opens and adapts to its cross section. Is by the fact that the bags are only in their two side Border areas are kept, ensuring that the Bags can open very largely and therefore the filling of the Sackes can be done very quickly.
- the one with the elastic filler neck provides an integral one Unit connected swivel mechanism a simple built-up solution consisting of a few functional elements to realize the change of position from one at an angle between 0 ° and 45 ° inclined downwards from the horizontal Position in which the bags are placed on the filler neck be, in an optimal for the filling process, preferably vertical position of the bag in the filling device.
- Axle stub 2 from both sides coaxially.
- a holder 3 each is pivotally held, as in FIG. 7 and 8 can be seen, can be driven via a cylinder-piston arrangement 4 is.
- a pressing device is held on each of these holders 3 in the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 8 by pairs of Press arms 5 is formed, the diametrically opposite one another hinged to the brackets 3 and parallel to the axes 2 extending stub axles 6 are held pivotably.
- the press arms 5 of each pair of press arms by means one connecting them at a distance from the stub axles 6 Cylinder-piston arrangement 7 pivotable against each other.
- press arms 5 of each pair of press arms 5 are furthermore Connected to one another via an adjusting rod 8, the upper or below the stub axles 6 with press arms 5 one each Pair articulated and adjustable in length and is noticeable and for setting the maximum movement path the press arms 5 is used.
- press arms lying on both sides of the stub axle 2 two pairs of press arms 5 are with each other via press plates 9 connected, these pressing plates 9 to parallel to the Axes 2 extending axes 10 are pivotally held.
- Booms 11 are also held on the holders 3, wherein these, however, for reasons of better clarity only 1 and 3 are shown, each of which Holding arm 12 is held.
- each of these arms 12 is a Pair of clamping arms 14 um, not shown in Fig. 1, 2 axles running parallel to the stub axles held.
- the clamping arms 14 of each holding arm 12 by means of cylinder-piston arrangements contained in the holding arms 12 in terms of the arms of each pair of Clamping arms 14 can be given away in opposite directions, as shown in the 5 and 6 will be explained.
- the clamping arms 14 serve to hold or clamp the side edges or folds 15 of Bags 16 to hold a bag 16 even during filling to be able to.
- the free end areas of the clamping arms 14 a greater distance from the stub axles 2 than that Press plates 9 of the press arms 5.
- the holding arms 12 are pivotally held on the arms 11 and by means of a spring 13 which protrudes outward Approach 11 'of the boom 11 is articulated to the outside biased. As a result, the holding arms 12 or Move the clamping arms 14 slightly in the direction of the press plates 9.
- each holding arm 12 is a cylinder bore 110 arranged, in which a provided with a seal 103 Piston 12 is slidably supported, the piston 102, or its piston rod 101 into the holding arm 12 screwed and sealed cover 106 penetrated.
- the piston rod 101 is inserted into the cover 106 by means of a Seal 107 sealed.
- the piston rod 101 is at its free end with a perpendicular to it
- Carrier 108 connected, at the two ends of the link 109 are, further on the two-armed lever Clamping arms 14 are articulated, the pivot axes 11 the clamping arms 14 run parallel to the stub axles 2.
- the clamping arms in their Clamp position (Fig. 6) are in a dead center position, from which it is brought only by the cylinder-piston arrangement 13 can be, but not by at the free ends of the clamp arms attacking forces.
- connections 104, 105 are provided in the cylinder bore 110 opening cross holes.
- a filling attachment 17 is held on the underside of the carrier 1, which is made of an elastically deformable material and is essentially circular in the relaxed state or has an elliptical cross section. This filling approach 17 protrudes below the lower edge of the press plates 9.
- a bag 16 is shown in FIG. 7 for filling relative to the vertical by an angle a, which is preferably Is 45 °, pivoted position on the means the press arms 5, or the press plates 9 compressed Filling attachment 17 plugged on and by means of the in Fig. 7 not shown clamping arms 14 held. Then the holder 3 by means of the cylinder-piston arrangement 4 in the vertical Position of the press arms 5 pivoted back and then by means of the cylinder-piston assemblies 7 in their open position brought (Fig. 8), but with the clamping arms 14 in their Clamp position remain.
- angle a which is preferably Is 45 °
- the filler neck 17 returns his relaxed position back and takes the sack 16 the 4 apparent cross-sectional shape, wherein at the same time the flow of the goods to be filled through the Filling approach 17 is released.
- the side edges of the bag 16 approach each other, whereby also the clamping arms 14, or the holding arms 12 holding each other against each other Approximate force of springs 13.
- the pressing device by in pair of spreader arms 18 and one on these attached and the filler neck 17 in its free end elastic band 19 wrapped around the area.
- the spreading arms 18 formed as an angle lever that around 2 axes 20 running perpendicular to the stub axles are in a manner not shown with in Fig. 9th to 12 also not shown pivotable holder 3rd are connected.
- the holding arms required also in this embodiment 12 and clamping arms 14 are in FIGS. 9 to 12 for reasons not shown for better clarity.
- the spreading arms 18 by means of the cylinder-piston arrangements 21, together with the holders 3 and the hollow support 1 are held pivotably in the brought from the Fig. 9 spread position, so the elastic band 19 is tensioned and presses the filler neck 17, which is made of an elastically deformable material is together, as can be seen from FIG. 11.
- a sack 16 can be put on, whereby the bag in the region of its side folds 15 from those not shown Clamping arms 14 is held. Then becomes the carrier 1 together with the filling attachment and spreading arms 18 in the vertical position pivoted back and the spreading arms 18 in the from FIG. 10th brought apparent rest position, against which it is by the elastic Band 19 are biased, so the elastic band 19 relaxes and the elastic restoring force of the filling attachment 17 is enough for this to be its relaxed position 12 can be seen.
- the filling of a sack 16 can be done as already shown above 1 to 8 are explained.
