Abstract

Eine Vorrichtung zum Befüllen von Behältern (B) mit Stückgütern (P2) weist eine Befüllstation (6), einen Behälterförderer (3) zur Zufuhr von zu befüllenden Behälter (B) in die Befüllstation (6), mindestens einen Stückgutförderer (2) zur Förderung der Stückgüter (P2) in einen Bereich der Befüllstation (6) und mindestens eine Befülleinheit (7) zur Befüllung eines Füllraums der zu befüllenden Behälter (B) mit den zugeführten Stückgütern (P2) in der Befüllstation (6) auf. Die Vorrichtung verfügt mindestens im Bereich der Befüllstation (6) für mindestens einen Teil der Behälter (B) über Befüllungshilfen (4, 5), welche diese Behälter (B) vor deren Befüllung in der Befüllstation (6) deformieren oder deren Einfüllöffnungen vergrössern oder Einfüllführungen für diese Behälter (B) bilden. Dadurch wird auf einfache Art und Weise eine vollständige Befüllung von Behältern (B) ermöglicht, selbst wenn die Behälter (B) im teilgefüllten Zustand transportiert worden sind.

Figure 00000001
A device for filling containers (B) with piece goods (P2) has a filling station (6), a container conveyor (3) for feeding containers (B) to be filled into the filling station (6), and at least one piece goods conveyor (2) for conveying the piece goods (P2) into an area of the filling station (6) and at least one filling unit (7) for filling a filling space of the containers (B) to be filled with the supplied piece goods (P2) in the filling station (6). At least in the area of the filling station (6), the device has filling aids (4, 5) for at least some of the containers (B), which deform these containers (B) before filling them in the filling station (6) or enlarge their filling openings or filling guides form for these containers (B). This enables containers (B) to be completely filled in a simple manner, even if the containers (B) have been transported in the partially filled state.
