Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for a device filling of liquids, namely wine, spirits or juices in bottles according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a device for a device filling of liquids, namely wine, spirits or juices in bottles according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is for example from the FR-A-2 677 007 known.
  • filling devices which operate with negative pressure. This means that the interior of the bottle is evacuated, so that due to the resulting negative pressure, the liquid is sucked into the bottle.
  • the invention is based on the object to develop farther in bottles of the input-mentioned type in such the apparatus for filling liquids, namely wine, spirits or juices that a faster completion of the filling apparatus is achieved.
  • the device solution is characterized by the features in the characterizing part of claim 2.
  • the basic idea of the filling device according to the invention consists in two tubes, namely a filling tube for the liquid and a vent tube, through which the air in the bottle can escape. This means that a corresponding volume of air escapes through the vent tube according to the supply amount of liquid through the filling tube.
  • the basic idea of the filling system according to the invention is that, for example, the wine is not deprived of the natural carbon dioxide and the aroma substances which it has naturally by the drop pressure filling system according to the invention. This means that the quality of the wine (or other comparable liquids) is maintained by the filling system according to the invention.
  • the control of the device can be done purely mechanically.
  • a compact unit is created, which can be easily inserted into the bottle neck opening of the bottle.
  • the inside is the vent pipe and outside the filler pipe.
  • the supply of the liquid takes place in the intermediate region between the outer circumferential surface of the inner filling tube and the inner circumferential surface of the outer vent tube.
  • the corresponding valves for opening and closing the two tubes can be actuated.
  • the inner tube is provided at the bottom in the opening portion with a valve plate having a diameter such that it closes the lower-side opening of the outer tube.
  • a valve plate having a diameter such that it closes the lower-side opening of the outer tube.
  • valve sleeve with ring seal Between the lower valve plate and the outer tube located above a valve sleeve with ring seal is arranged.
  • This displaceable valve sleeve has in cooperation with the outer tube and the relative thereto fixed valve disc of the inner tube has the advantage that the opening movements on the one hand for the liquid and on the other hand for the vent tube can be operated independently by a corresponding mechanical control.
  • a stop for the valve sleeve and a compression spring is provided according to the embodiment in claim 2.
  • the operation of the displacement device is carried out according to the embodiment in claim 4 preferably in such a way that the filling device is fixed in and of itself, while the bottle is moved upward so that the filling device is immersed in the bottle.
  • the mechanical control is automatically activated.
  • the entire system for filling liquids, such as wine in bottles 1 has a carousel system in which the bottles 1 revolve like a carousel.
  • a filling device 2 which rotates synchronously together with the associated bottle 1.
  • the filling device 2 is unchanged with respect to its vertical position, while the bottle 1 is first moved upwards for the filling process and then again after the filling process down.
  • a control element 3 as shown in Fig. 3 is used.
  • the lifting mechanism of the bottle 1 stands on rollers in operative contact with the associated control surfaces of the control third
  • the filling device 2 has a fixed relative to the height adjustment vent pipe 4.
  • This vent pipe 4 is closed on the underside of a valve disk 5. This is initially conically widening downward, ie in the form of a truncated cone. Above the valve disk 5 are located at the lower end of the vent pipe 4 radial openings. The truncated cone of the valve disk 5 is followed by an inverted cone with a conical tip. At a distance above the valve disk 5, the vent pipe 4 is surrounded by a stop 6:
  • a vertical filling tube 7 Coaxially around the vent tube 4 around a vertical filling tube 7 is arranged.
  • This filling tube 7 is axially displaceable up and down.
  • a horizontal axis for a roller 8 is fixed.
  • a pressing rubber 9 is provided on the filling tube 7, a horizontal axis for a roller 8 is fixed.
  • valve sleeve 10 is arranged sealed longitudinally displaceable.
  • This valve sleeve 10 has at the bottom a conical annular seal 11, wherein the shape of the cone of this annular seal 11 is adapted to the truncated cone of the valve disk 5.
  • a compression spring 12 is supported.
  • a driver 13 In the peripheral region of the filling tube 7 is a driver 13 with a arranged on a horizontal axis roller 14, which lies exactly vertically below the roller 8.
  • a preferably pivotally mounted control element 15 is fixedly arranged on the machine frame.
  • the control element 15 is limited from above by a first bolt 16 and at the bottom by a second bolt 17.
  • the upper bolt 16 is still assigned a compression spring 18.
  • the starting position is shown in Fig. 1a. In this starting position, the bottle 1 is below the filling device. 2
  • the lifting device for the bottle 1 reaches the area of the control element 3, so that the bottle 1 is moved upwards via a corresponding control cam. This position is shown in Fig. 1 b.
  • the bottle 1 is moved further upwards. Because the fixed control element 15 is no longer in the range of action of the further rotated bottle 1 and 2 filling device. This means that by the lifting movement of the bottle 1 via the control element 3, the roller 14 of the driver 13 in contact with the roller 8 of the filling tube. 7 arrives. As a result, the filling tube 7 is further raised, while the valve sleeve 10 due to the stop 6 maintains the position.
  • the removal of the bottle 1 from the filling device 2 begins.
  • the valve opening for the wine and then the valve opening for the air closes by lowering the bottle 1 downwards via a corresponding lifting element and the control element 3 becomes.
  • the removal can be slowed down (in Fig. 5, the flat stretch right at the control element 3). This has the advantage that at the apex of the valve disc 5 adhering drops can fall off and dripping is thereby prevented. This is important because of sterility.
