Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for centering and orientating capsules of bottles of sparkling wine and the like.
  • capsules made of metal or typically tin-based metal alloy are applied by fitting them over the cork and partially over the neck of the bottle, to which they are subsequently made to cling by means of pneumatic sleeves which form, on the capsules, a plurality of parallel and vertical folds, typically four, which take up the excess material of the capsule, causing its correct adhesion to the cork and bottle neck.
  • the capsule In order to correctly perform the operation for application by folding, the capsule must be perfectly axially aligned with the bottle, i.e., to put it briefly, it must be "centered" on the bottle.
  • the capsules at issue are normally frustum-shaped, so as to follow the tapering shape of the neck of the bottle at least as a first approximation, and since some of the capsules have a reduced axial extension and therefore an opening at the larger base which has a significantly larger diameter than the corresponding diameter of the neck of the bottle, also in order to facilitate fitting onto the neck, centering these capsules is not easy.
  • they Once they have been fitted onto the neck of the bottle, they in fact tend to oscillate and arrange themselves obliquely with respect to the axis of the bottle; this oscillation is caused by various factors, such as accidental impacts, mass-dependent actions (sudden accelerations or stops), localized air currents, and others.
  • bottles on which capsules of the above-mentioned short type are fitted often arrive at the pneumatic sleeves for forming the folds with the capsules off-centered with respect to the bottles.
  • the capsule further retains its inclined position - with respect to the axis of the bottle.
  • the aim of the present invention is to eliminate these severe drawbacks, and within the scope of this general aim an object is to provide a method and an apparatus capable of performing the preliminary and stable centering of the capsules with respect to the bottles, so that when the bottles reach the station where capsule application is completed by forming folds on the capsules, such capsules are perfectly centered with respect to the axis of the bottle, in order to ensure the correct formation of rigorously identical and vertical folds.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus which allow correct angular positioning or orientation of the bottles with the capsules partially rigidly coupled thereto beforehand, so as to ensure that in the subsequent step for completing application by forming the folds the pneumatic sleeve arranges the folds rigorously in the space assigned to them.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to allow the mutual angular positioning or orientation of both the capsule and the bottle, in order to align the lettering or emblems of the capsule with any raised portions (emblems, markings and the like) impressed on the bottle.
  • the invention is based on the concept of producing, by means of a drop-down head which is provided with a rigid sleeve for centering the capsule which is surmounted by a pneumatic sleeve for partial tightening, the preliminary and corresponding partial compression only of the upper portion of the capsule and the substantial coupling thereof, in a centered position, to the mushroom-shaped cork that protrudes from the neck of the bottle.
  • the bottle with the capsule rigidly coupled thereto is orientated angularly with respect to at least one reference provided by the capsule itself; such reference is rendered visible by the partial lifting of the drop-down head and is detected by an optical reader which produces the controlled angular movement of the bottle in order to feed, in the correct angular position, the capsule and the bottle, which are mutually centered and rigidly coupled, to the subsequent station for forming the folds that complete the application of the capsule to the neck of the bottle.
  • the angular orientation of the capsule and of the bottle with respect to each other. This is achieved by producing, before rigid coupling by partial compression of the upper part of the capsule, the preliminary lifting of the capsule from the bottle, the angular orientation of the former with respect to an optical reader which detects a reference on the capsule, and the simultaneous angular orientation of the latter with respect to a feeler which detects a reference on the bottle; after the orientations have been completed, the capsule being lowered onto the bottle again and being partially pressed onto the cork of the bottle in order to rigidly couple the capsule and the bottle, which were centered and mutually angularly orientated beforehand.
  • the reference numeral 10 generally designates the apparatus for centering and orientating capsules 11 of the metallic type
  • the reference numeral 12 designates a bottle of sparkling wine or the like which is meant to receive a corresponding capsule 11.
  • the capsule is then made to cling to the mushroom-shaped cork T and to the neck of the bottle, in a manner which is known and not shown, by virtue of a pneumatic sleeve which forms vertical folds which are parallel and evenly spaced and are suitable to take up the excess material of the capsules.
  • the apparatus 10 has the stated essential purpose of centering beforehand the capsule 11 on the bottle 12 and of producing the angular orientation of the capsule and the bottle so that they are correctly positioned when they arrive at the subsequent processing station (not shown), in which the vertical folds are formed and capsule fitting is completed.
  • the apparatus 10 comprises a drop down head 20 which is provided with a rigid interchangeable sleeve 21 which substantially has the frustum-shaped profile of the capsule 11 and is meant to contain the capsule so as to center it, arranging it coaxially to the underlying bottle 12.
  • the sleeve 21 is screwed, or otherwise detachably coupled, to a head body 22 which is provided with a pneumatic tightening sleeve 23 which is located directly above the rigid sleeve 21, can undergo radial deformation, is typically made of elastomeric material and into which a manifold 24 feeds compressed air.
  • the pneumatic tightening sleeve 23 has a partial axial extension and protrudes above the centering sleeve 21 by an axial extent which is slightly greater than the axial extension of the mushroom-shaped cork T that protrudes from the upper edge of the neck of the bottle 12.
  • the rigid sleeve 21 and the pneumatic sleeve 23 therefore delimit together, in the head 20, a cavity which is suitable to receive the capsule 11; the cavity is closed in an upward region by an end plate 25 which is suitable to press on the head surface of the capsule.
  • the manifold 24 is rigidly coupled so as to prevent rotation by a lateral rod 26 and said head body 22 is rigidly coupled to a hollow vertical stem 27 which can move axially and rotationally in the bush 28 of a rigid support 29 to which the lateral rod 26 is rigidly coupled.
  • the support 29 is supported by a disk 30 which can move vertically and which is further provided with the fold formation sleeve, which is not shown in the figure and is angularly shifted with respect to the head 20.
  • the cavity of the stem 27 contains a rigid rod 31 whose lower end is connected, with a rolling bearing interposed, to the end plate 25 and whose upper end is rigidly coupled to the stem 32 of a double-acting hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder 33 which is fitted at the upper end of the stem 27.
  • the apparatus is completed by a rotating pad 34 which is suitable to support the bottle 12 so that it is axially aligned with the head 20; the pad is turned by an electric motor 35, preferably of the step type, which is controlled by fixed optical reader 36 which is arranged laterally to the bottle and substantially at the lower edge of the capsule 11.
  • the apparatus 100 comprises a drop-down rotating head 200 with a head body 220 which is supported by a hollow vertical stem 270 which is accommodated, so that it can move axially, in contrast with a spring 271, in a corresponding bush 280.
  • Said bush is contained so that it can rotate, with rolling bearings 281-282 interposed, in a tube 283 which is rigidly coupled to a disk-like support 300 which can move vertically by way of the axial movement of a supporting post 301.
  • the bush 280 rigidly supports a gear 284 which meshes with the pinion 285 of an actuation motor 286 which is rigidly coupled to the supporting disk 300.
  • the motor 286, preferably of the step type, is controlled by a fixed optical reader 360 ( Figure 7) which is arranged laterally to the bottle and is supported by the post 301 at the lower edge of the capsule 11.
  • the head body 220 contains, as in the first embodiment, a pneumatic tightening sleeve 230 to which compressed air is fed by means of a manifold 240 which turns rigidly with the head 200 and cooperates with a fixed distributor 241 which is rigidly coupled so as to prevent rotation by a lateral rod 260.
  • the head body 220 protrudes downward with a rigid sleeve portion 210 which lies directly below the tightening sleeve 230 and has the already-described function of centering element for the capsule 11.
  • the cavity for containing the capsule 11, which is delimited in the head body 220 by the rigid sleeve 210 and the tightening sleeve 230, is provided, in an upward region, with a capsule gripping sucker 250 which, by means of a duct 251 arranged coaxially to the hollow stem 270, is connected to a source of vacuum, not shown.
  • the apparatus is completed by a rotating pad 340 which supports the bottle 120 so that it is axially aligned with the drop-down head 200 and is moved by a motor 350 which is controlled by a fixed feeler 290, typically a mechanical one, which is suitable to detect a notch 291, or an equivalent element, provided on the bottle 120; said bottle is of the type which bears an emblem, a marking or the like to be arranged in a preset angular relationship to the capsule 11.
  • a fixed feeler 290 typically a mechanical one, which is suitable to detect a notch 291, or an equivalent element
