Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filling machine for filling containers such as bottles or the like with a liquid product according to the type specified in the preamble of the main claim and as in the EP 0 337 913 A2 disclosed.
  • Trinox methods are methods known as Trinox methods. Basis of such a method is that the bottle is initially overfilled with a classic Kurzrohr Stahlllsystem. Subsequently, the excess filling material is then pressed back precisely into the ring bowl until the end of a tube immersed in the product level. For this purpose, a pressure is regulated in a separate channel in the filler carousel, which is about 0.3 to 1.0 bar above the filling pressure set in the ring boiler.
  • a pneumatically controlled valve opens a connection from this channel into the bottleneck.
  • the path formed in the interior of the Trinox tube immersed in the filling material level in the ring bowl is also released electro-pneumatically.
  • the overpressure in the bottleneck presses the product above the mouth of the Trinox tube is returned to the ring bowl.
  • the process is completed as soon as the gas from the bottleneck above the product level can flow directly into the Trinox tube over a defined gap.
  • the filling level is thus defined clearly and precisely by the gap width between the mirror and the pipe end or other return openings.
  • the clamping gas valve or its valve body at the same time forms the Trinox valve.
  • a gas flow reducing element for example in the form of a throttle or nozzle.
  • a filling machine according to the patent claim 1 is formed. Accordingly, the invention provides that the Trinox tubes all filling elements are arranged on a central bearing ring as a common height adjustment.
  • a first gas channel for supplying and discharging process gases and other media is provided in this filler neck and within this gas channel is provided in its height determining height infinitely height adjustable further gas channel for supplying a pressurized gas above the biasing pressure.
  • a plurality of filling points is formed, each of which has a filling element 3 and under this one in the vertical direction up and down movable bottle carrier.
  • the filling elements 3 are attached to the circumference of the ring vessel 1.
  • This forms a vertical axis of the machine annularly enclosing interior 4, which is filled to a predetermined level with the drink or the liquid product, so that below the level occupied by the liquid medium liquid space 4 and above the level, a gas space for a below Compressive gas, for example, inert gas (eg CO 2 gas) is formed.
  • inert gas eg CO 2 gas
  • Each filling element has a housing 5, in the lower part of a liquid channel 6 is formed, which communicates with its one end with the Gregutraum 4 and on the underside of the filling element 3 and the housing 5, a vertical Greelementachse FA concentrically enclosing annular discharge opening 7 forms.
  • the liquid valve 8 is provided, which is shown in the drawing in its closed position.
  • This liquid valve consists of a valve body 9 which is movable by not shown actuating means for opening and closing by a predetermined movement stroke in the direction of the axis FA and rests in the closed state of the liquid valve 8 with a valve body surface against a formed in the liquid channel 6 valve lug.
  • 10 denotes a centering tulip and 11 denotes an annular seal enclosing the discharge opening 7, against the located in sealing position with the filling element 3 bottle 2 pressed against its mouth pressed.
  • an annular, common for all filling elements 3 vacuum channel 12 is provided in the ring bowl 1. Furthermore, a common for all filling elements 3 Trinox channel 13 is provided with the described overpressure gas on the ring boiler 1 or on the rotor having this ring boiler.
  • the embodiment shown in the drawing shows a Greetil
  • a inside the valve body extending upwardly and downwardly first gas channel 14, provided for supplying and discharging the process gas.
  • valves shown in FIG. 3 which are arranged within the filling valve, it is possible to connect the first gas channel 14 alternately or simultaneously to the Trinox channel 13 and the vacuum channel 12.
  • These possibilities may be, for example, the biasing gas originating from the Trinox channel 13, or the scavenging air to be removed from the container, for the process gases to be supplied or discharged through the first gas channel.
  • a further second gas channel 15 extends. This is provided in the embodiment as the actual Trinox tube and out in the form of a gas pipe 16 from the Gearventilgeophen 5 up to a central Grein-adjusting 17, which in turn to a central bearing ring 18 is held.
  • the bearing ring 18 by means of at least one drive device 19 relative to the front-side lower level of the filling elements 3 with the Trinox gas pipes 16 for determining the respective level by the Trinox method described above height adjustable and adjustable.
  • the control valves or devices 20 provided for each filling point are expediently arranged, with which the individual Trinox compounds can be controlled in the ring bowl according to the required process specifications.
  • the actual Trinox process is as follows: following a possible evacuation and / or rinsing process, the liquid valve 8 opens, the filling material flows into the container to be filled. The thereby displaced from the container process gas flows depending on the control of the valves through the gas channel 14 in the vacuum channel 12, or through the Trinox gas pipe 16 in the above the filling gas space 4 ".
  • the filling process is terminated by closing the liquid valve 8 at a time at which the level of contents reached in the container exceeds the lower edge of the second gas channel 15. Thereafter, by appropriate control of the valves from the Trinox channel 13 originating gas, which has a higher pressure than the gas located in the Medgutraum 4, passed through the gas passage 14 into the interior of the container.
  • the gas originating from the Trinox channel 13 presses the quantity of liquid which exceeds the lower edge of the second gas channel 15 through this second gas channel 15 back into the filling material space 4, whereby the desired filling level is exactly reached.
  • the above-described embodiment can be modified to the effect that the supply and removal of the process gas also takes place through the Trinox channel, with a corresponding design of the control device is provided, with which the process gases can be fed to the Trinox channel.
  • a corresponding design of the control device is provided, with which the process gases can be fed to the Trinox channel.
  • appropriate training may also be the biasing channel for feeding the Trinox gas to be introduced.
  • the corresponding channels are adjustable in height formed within the filler neck.
  • the gas present in the further gas channel 14 after completion of the filling increased, above the biasing pressure pressure for biasing the subsequent container can be introduced into this, resulting in considerable savings in terms of reduction the consumption of bias gas and / or increased concentrations of inert gas.
