Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1. a glass container according to the preamble of claim 5 and a device according to the preamble of claim 6.
  • Known profiles under the bottom of glass containers are used to create a to create a defined footprint on the glass container with which the glass container can be placed on a surface.
  • Known profiles have crescent-shaped, radial or punctiform arranged in several rows
  • Profiling elements on. These profiling elements are round Glass containers in circles concentric to the longitudinal axis of the glass containers arranged. The profiling elements are located in the case of non-round glass containers usually along an outside of the floor. Usually are the known profiling elements at a constant distance from each other arranged.
  • the invention has for its object the detection of glass containers to improve and facilitate according to different criteria.
  • This task is related to the method by the features of the claim 1 solved. So for the purpose of recognition, the already existing Profiling under the bottom of the glass container can be used. To this The form number and other production data can be created with little effort machine-readable coding. In addition, it is possible to use deposit containers encode in a machine-readable manner to help repay to mechanize the pawn. The same applies to deposit-free disposable glass containers mechanically recycled without any Deposit payment made.
  • the object of the invention is also by the glass container according to claim 5 solved.
  • the special design of the profiling on its bottom permits the various uses mentioned above.
  • the features of claim 9 offer a very universal scanning device, without the glass container being rotated around its longitudinal axis for scanning would.
  • the features of claim 11 provide a mechanical scanning device available that is robust and can also be used universally can.
  • the form connection seam denotes the in a manner known per se Mold gap between the two mold halves and the associated mold base the finished mold in which the glass container 1 is manufactured has been.
  • the profiling elements 6 are on one the longitudinal axis 2 concentric circle normally in constant Spaced from each other and extending away from the bottom 3 outward.
  • the glass container 1 with the profiling elements 6 a pad 8 can be set up.
  • the gap 9th mechanically scanned and thereby a gap signal can be obtained.
  • the Gap signal is then used to recognize that it is at the tested glass container 1 by one with or without the gap 9 is.
  • the gap 9 can be given the meaning that the associated glass container 1 is a disposable deposit bottle acts for which a deposit is to be refunded to the consignor.
  • the profiling 7 has on the bottom 3 of the glass container 1 gaps 10 to 13. Which in turn extends axially outwards extending profiling elements 6 are here with respect to the longitudinal axis 2 radially oriented, but could as well be crescent-shaped as in Fig. 1 his.
  • Four profiling elements 6 are missing in the gap 10, and 11 are missing in the gap a profiling element 6, and in the gaps 12 and 13 two are missing Profiling elements 6. Between the gaps 10 and 11 on the one hand and 12 and 13, on the other hand, there is a profiling element 6. Between the gaps 11 and 12, however, are two profiling elements calmly.
  • the code 0000.0..00.00 is represented, according to the internationally used dot code (dot code)
  • Number 14 means.
  • "0" means missing Profiling element 6 and a ".” an existing profiling element.
  • the point code mentioned are at least the numbers from 1 to 90 through different sequences of "0" and ".” represents.
  • the number 14 can e.g. the number of the finished mold of a glass molding machine act in which the glass container 1 was manufactured.
  • machine recognition of the number 14 based on the coding in the profiling 7 can therefore be deduced from the finished form No. 14. Once on that Glass container 1 irregularities can be found somewhere downstream inferred from the glass molding machine to the finished mold 14 that need corrections.
  • the profiling 7 has two gaps 15 and 16, which, with respect to the longitudinal axis 2, at an angle 17 in Are arranged circumferentially from each other.
  • Two profiling elements 6 are missing in the gap 15 and three are missing in the gap 16
  • the number of profiling elements to be omitted in each gap depends on how big the respective gap has to be to ensure sufficient detection security. In many cases it is sufficient to omit only a single profiling element 6, as shown in FIG Fig. 1 is shown for the gap 9. Detection security can serve if instead of only one gap 9 in FIG. 1, two gaps 15, 16, as in FIG. 4, or even more than two gaps are provided.
  • the angle 17 is used to further secure the detection of the glass container 1 the glass container 1 not only recognized when two gaps are found. Rather, it is additionally necessary that these gaps 15, 16 under the predetermined angle 17 are arranged to each other.
  • the profiling 7 has two Longitudinal axis 2 concentric circular sequences in turn axially externally extending, punctiform profiling elements 6.
  • the outer As a result of the profiling elements 6 there are no gaps.
  • the related with gaps 10 to 13 described with Fig. 3 arranged in between Profiling elements 6, which in turn in coded form Embody number "14" are arranged in the inner sequence of the profiling elements 6. So are the stability and general manageability of the Glass container 1 practically not affected by the gaps 10 to 13 because the outer sequence of the profiling elements 6 is not interrupted.
  • Fig. 6 the bottom 3 of the glass container 1 from below by a Ring light 18 illuminated, which is connected via a cable 19 to a flash unit 20 is.
  • the flash unit 20 is connected via a line 21 through an image processing system 22 controlled.
  • Coaxial with the longitudinal axis 2 of the glass container 1 is a CCD camera 23 as part of a scanning device below the floor 3 24 arranged.
  • the CCD camera 23 generates electrical image signals, which - corresponding to the gaps 9 to 13, 15 and 16 - each gap signals exhibit. These image signals including the gap signals are entered via a line 25 into the image processing system 22 and there processed.
  • the image processing system 22 is e.g. a monitor 26, a or several actuators 27 and sensors 28 are connected.
  • the monitor 26 shows an image 29 of a bottom of a bottle with crescent-shaped profiling elements 6 and gaps 15, 16 according to FIG. 4. However, in FIG. 6 the profiling elements are 6 crescent-shaped as in Fig. 1.
  • coded glass containers can be very safely detect.
  • the scanning device 24 has gap sensing elements 30 and 31 on. These are relative to the bottom 3 of the glass container 1 in the base 8 movably supported in the directions of the double arrows 32 and in the direction of the bottom 3 biased by a compression spring 33. Every gap sensor 30, 31 carries a flag 34 and 35 below, each with a stationary Sensor 36 and 37 cooperate.
  • FIG. 7 shows how gap sensor element 30 fits into gap 9 of profiling 7 intervenes.
  • the flag 34 was raised into the effective range of the sensor 36.
  • the sensor 36 is connected to an evaluation device via a line 38 39 connected to which the sensor 37 is connected via a line 40.
  • the other gap sensing element 31 lies on the underside of profiling elements 6 on. This means that its flag 35 is not in the area of effect of the sensor 37 is arranged. So there is in the arrangement shown in FIG the sensor 36 sends a gap signal into the evaluation device 39 while this is not the case with the sensor 37.
  • the evaluation device 39 can a line 41 can be connected to one or more actuators 42.
  • gap sensing elements could extend over the entire scope of the profiling 7 be arranged. If there was only one gap 9, then any of the Gap gap elements intervene in the gap 9 and the desired gap signal deliver into the evaluation device 39. Here, however, would be the mechanical one Comparatively high effort.
  • gap sensing elements could be provided at a distance from one another be that cooperate with corresponding gaps in the profile 7.
  • the glass container 1 would also have to do this about its longitudinal axis 2 be turned until the gap sensing elements engage in the associated gaps.
  • the scanning device 24 one with the profiling elements 6 and with the at least one gap 9 aligned arrangement of capacitive sensors 43.
  • Inputs 44 of all sensors 43 are arranged in a common plane of the base 8.
  • the cross sections of the sensors 43 can be round, for example or be rectangular. With a rectangular design, a diameter range can be the glass container 1 to be tested is tested with the same sensors 43, when the sensors 43 are substantially radial with respect to their longitudinal direction the longitudinal axis 2 are arranged, as shown in Fig. 9.
  • the profiling elements 6 of the profiling 7 are the profiling elements 6 of the profiling 7 as depressions in a base ring 47 on the floor 3 of the glass container 1 is formed. If at least one of these wells 6 is omitted, the gap 9 or more gaps is created accordingly the previously described embodiments. Any of these gaps can be made accordingly the previously described exemplary embodiments are scanned by machine become.
