Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf eine Abdeckung für ein Anstichkörperoberteil eines Vorratsbehälters für ein flüssiges Lebensmittelprodukt, z. B. in Form eines Bierfasses. Statt eines flüssigen Lebensmittelprodukts kann sich in einem solchen Vorratsbehälter auch ein Ausgangsstoff für ein Lebensmittelprodukt oder ein pharmazeutisches Produkt befinden.The invention is directed to a cover for an upper part of the piercing body a storage container for a liquid food product, e.g. B. in Shape of a beer keg. Instead of a liquid food product, you can In such a storage container there is also a starting material for a food product or a pharmaceutical product.

Herkömmlicherweise werden die Anstichkörperoberteile von Vorratsbehältern für flüssige Lebensmittelprodukte nach dem erneuten Befüllen gereinigt und desinfiziert und dann mit einer Kunststoff-Schutzkappe versehen, die einen gewissen mechanischen Schutz bietet, bis dann zum Verbrauch diese Abdeckung entfernt und ein Zapfkopf aufgesetzt wird.Conventionally, the upper part of the tapping body is made of storage containers for liquid food products cleaned after refilling and disinfected and then provided with a plastic protective cap, which offers some mechanical protection until it is used this cover is removed and a dispensing head is attached.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Abdeckung der in Betracht stehenden Art so auszugestalten, dass sie bei kostengünstiger Herstellbarkeit und einfacher Handhabbarkeit hohen hygienischen und mikrobiologischen Anforderungen gerecht wird.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is a cover of the type under consideration in such a way that they are less expensive Manufacturability and easy handling high hygienic and meets microbiological requirements.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass sie aus einer an ihrer Unterseite mit einem Heißsiegellack versehenen Platine besteht.This object is achieved in that it consists of one the underside of which is provided with a heat seal varnish.

Durch das erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene ringförmige Aufsiegeln wird das Anstichkörperoberteil wirksam gegen eine Verschmutzung nach dem Abfüllvorgang, z. B. bei Lagerung und Transport, geschützt und gelangt in hygienisch einwandfreiem Zustand zum Bestimmungsort. Unmittelbar vor dem Anstechen des Flüssigkeitsbehälters wird der Hygieneschutz entfernt und der Zapfkopf kann mit dem Anstichkörperoberteil verbunden werden. Erfindungsgemäß werden also höchste hygienische Anforderungen erfüllt, wobei die Handhabung und Herstellung einfach und preiswert ist. Darüber hinaus kann die Abdeckung als Warenkennzeichnung oder Werbeträger verwendet werden.This is achieved by the annular sealing provided according to the invention Upper part of the tapping body effective against contamination after the filling process, z. B. during storage and transport, protected and gets in hygienically perfect condition to the destination. Just before when the liquid container is pierced, the hygiene protection is removed and the dispensing head can be connected to the upper part of the tapping body. According to the invention, the highest hygienic requirements are met, the handling and manufacture is simple and inexpensive. About that In addition, the cover can be used as a product label or advertising medium be used.

Die erfindungsgemäße Abdeckung ist beispielsweise bei Bierfässern, nämlich bei sogenannten KEG-Fässern, in Form von zylindrischen Edelstahlfässern mit integriertem Fitting mit Vorteil einsetzbar. Auch andere Behälter, wie AfG-Container oder Postmix-Behälter, kommen in Betracht.The cover according to the invention is for example in beer kegs, namely in so-called KEG barrels, in the form of cylindrical stainless steel barrels with integrated fitting can be used with advantage. Other containers, such as AfG containers or post-mix containers are possible.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels in Verbindung mit der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen:

Fig. 1
ein KEG-Fass und dessen Anstichkörperoberteil mit einer aufgesiegelten erfindungsgemäßen Abdeckung,
Fig. 2

Fig. 3
einen schematischen Schnitt durch eine erfindungsgemäße Abdeckung.
The invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of a preferred exemplary embodiment in conjunction with the drawing. Show:
Fig. 1
a KEG barrel and its tapping body upper part with a sealed cover according to the invention,
Fig. 2
removing the cover and
Fig. 3
a schematic section through a cover according to the invention.

In Fig. 1 und 2 ist ein KEG-Fass 1 für Bier in Form eines zylindrischen Edelstahlfasses mit einem integrierten Anstichkörperoberteil 2 dargestellt, welches eine runde Flanschoberseite 3 aufweist, auf die zum Verbrauch ein Zapfkopf aufgesetzt werden kann.1 and 2 is a KEG barrel 1 for beer in the form of a cylindrical Stainless steel barrel shown with an integrated upper part 2, which has a round flange top 3, on the one for consumption Dispensing head can be placed.

Die erfindungsgemäße Abdeckung 4 besteht aus einer gestanzten Platine mit einer Abziehlasche 5, die - wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt - zum Abziehen einfach zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinder ergriffen wird, wobei die Abdeckung dann gleichermaßen einfach und rückstandsfrei abgezogen werden kann.The cover 4 according to the invention consists of a stamped board with a pull tab 5, which - as shown in Fig. 2 - for pulling is simply gripped between the thumb and index finder, taking the cover can then be removed easily and without residue can.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Abdeckung 4 umfasst eine Heißsiegellackschicht 5 auf Polyesterbasis in Abmischung mit Polyacrylat an der Unterseite einer Aluminium-Folie 6, deren Oberseite mit einem Vorlack 7, einem Tiefdruck 8 und einem Schutzlack 9 versehen ist. Die Aluminium-Folie 6 ist z.B. 20 - 100 µm dick.A cover 4 according to the invention comprises a heat seal lacquer layer 5 based on polyester mixed with polyacrylate on the underside of a Aluminum foil 6, the top of which with a primer 7, a gravure 8 and a protective lacquer 9 is provided. The aluminum foil 6 is e.g. 20 - 100 µm thick.

Die Aufbringung der Hygieneschutzabdeckung auf das Anstichkörperteil kann vollautomatisch mit Hilfe von Abpackmaschinen erfolgen, wie sie in der Milchwirtschaft verwendet werden, wobei die Abdeckung entweder von der Rolle oder einzeln aus einem Magazin entnommen, auf das Fitting aufgelegt und von einem Siegelkopf versiegelt wird. Derartige Siegelköpfe arbeiten üblicherweise automatisch, d.h. der Siegelkopf hat eine bestimmte Temperatur und liegt mit einem definierten Druck eine festgelegte Zeit auf der Abdeckung auf.The application of the hygiene protection cover to the part of the piercing body can be done fully automatically with the help of packing machines as in the dairy industry can be used, covering either taken from the roll or individually from a magazine, onto the fitting applied and sealed by a sealing head. Such sealing heads usually work automatically, i.e. the sealing head has a certain one Temperature and is at a defined pressure for a specified time the cover.

Alternativ kann vor allem bei kleineren Abfüllbetrieben die Aufbringung der Hygieneschutzabdeckung halbautomatisch erfolgen. Hierbei kann die Hygieneabdeckung einzeln manuell aufgelegt und anschließend mit einem manuell geführten Siegelkopf versiegelt werden.Alternatively, the application can be carried out especially in smaller filling companies the hygienic protective cover is semi-automatic. Here, the Hygiene cover placed individually manually and then with a manually operated sealing head can be sealed.

Die Versiegelung kann beispielsweise über Thermokontaktsiegelung oder Induktionssiegelung erfolgen.The seal can, for example, via thermal contact sealing or Induction sealing done.

Bei der vollautomatischen Versiegelung mit einzelnen Platinen, die aus einem Magazin entnommen werden, stellt sich das Problem der Vereinzelung der Hygieneschutzabdeckung, wobei insoweit in an sich bekannter Weise vorgesehen sein kann, dass die Abdeckung geprägt oder ungeprägt und mit Abstandshaltern aus Lack ausgebildet sind.In the case of fully automatic sealing with individual blanks that come out taken from a magazine, the problem of isolation arises the hygiene protection cover, in so far known in itself It can be provided that the cover is embossed or unembossed and are formed with spacers made of lacquer.

Denkbar ist es auch, den Rand der Hygieneabdeckung über den Rand des Anstichkörperoberteils überstehen zu lassen und zu umbördeln, wodurch die Schutzwirkung noch erhöht werden könnte.It is also conceivable to place the edge of the hygiene cover over the edge of the Let the upper part of the piercing body protrude and flare, thereby the protective effect could be increased.
