Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the metered filling of bulk material according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Such devices have a vertically extending filling tube with a movable and rotatable in the axial direction metering screw. Bulk material to be filled into pouches or other containers is introduced into the filling tube at the top and conveyed into the pouches in metered portions at the lower end of the filling tube by means of the metering screw. To interrupt the flow and portioning, the lower end of the filling tube can be closed with a closure means.
  • the closure means is an integral part of the metering screw. So revealed DE-A-102'21'567 a device in which the metering screw has a frusto-conical closing head with a seal. In the raised state of the metering screw, this seal is located on the lower end face of the filling tube.
  • EP-A-0'967'149 shows a metering screw with a double-cone-shaped closing head, which rests in the lowered state on a conical inner surface of the filling tube and thus closes the outlet opening.
  • the bulk material tends to deposit and agglomerate in the outlet area on the inner wall of the filling tube.
  • clumps interfere with the further flow and thus the exact dosage.
  • the deposits also prevent complete closure of the outlet opening.
  • EP-A-0'514'770 discloses an apparatus for conveying pastes, the apparatus having a feed screw which is mounted at its lower end in a cone-shaped bearing.
  • the device according to the invention has a filling tube and a metering element rotatable in the filling tube, wherein the metering element is movable along a longitudinal axis of the filling tube and wherein the metering element has a closing head for closing a lower outlet region of the filling tube.
  • the closing head has at least one closing area with a cylindrical lateral surface on.
  • the filling tube is hollow-cylindrical at least in the outlet region.
  • This design of the closing head and the outlet area allows a quick closure of the outlet opening without having to overcome large distances.
  • the space requirement is extremely low.
  • this design allows a self-cleaning of the outlet of the filling tube. As a result, deposits can be removed, the closing quality is maintained and the dosing accuracy is ensured. Nevertheless, means which are used for self-cleaning do not increase the space requirement of the device in the filling area of the bags. This is the case in particular when the metering element is designed as a metering screw with a shaft and at least one screw turn running along it.
  • the at least one closing region merges upward into an upper region which is tapered relative to it.
  • this upper taper facilitates the retraction of the closing head into the filling tube when the metering element is lifted to close the outlet opening.
  • the at least one cylinder-shaped closure region also goes down into a tapered lower region.
  • the closing head takes up minimal space within the bag to be filled and the dipping of the closing head in the bag is facilitated.
  • the device has an air conditioning unit for cooling or heating the bulk material.
  • an air conditioning unit for cooling or heating the bulk material.
  • this increases the accuracy of the dosage, since the temperature changes, for example, the flowability and the adhesion properties.
  • the inventive device is suitable for all bulk materials, but especially for bulk materials with relatively small particle sizes of a few hundredths to a few tenths of a millimeter in diameter.
  • the device is used for filling of bulk material in the medical and food sectors, for example, for filling powdered medicines, sugar or spices.
  • the bulk material is preferably packaged in bags, in particular vertically produced tubular bags or sealed edge bags. But there are others Use packaging types.
  • FIG. 1 a shows a device V according to the invention in a state during the filling of a bag B 1.
  • the device V has a filling tube 1, which is designed substantially hollow cylindrical.
  • the entire filling tube 1 is designed as a hollow cylinder.
  • Other shapes are possible, but at least one lower outlet region 14 is formed as a hollow cylinder.
  • the filling tube 1 is aligned vertically. This corresponds to the preferred arrangement.
  • the filling tube 1 has an upper inlet opening 10 and a lower outlet opening 11. As is visible in FIG. 5, the inlet opening 10 opens into a filling funnel 12. By means of this filling funnel 12 pourable material can be introduced into the filling tube 1.
  • the bulk material is filled into vertically produced tubular bags B1, B2.
  • the tube H is withdrawn along the lower outlet opening 11 and this enclosing.
  • the desired cutting of a filled bag B2 is achieved by means of sealing jaws S, which in the example shown here are movable in the vertical direction and remove the individual bags after filling. Their movement is shown in Figure 2 with a double arrow.
  • a metering element 2 here a metering screw arranged. It is movable along a longitudinal axis L of the filling tube 1 and rotatable about its own longitudinal axis.
  • metering element 2 here a metering screw arranged. It is movable along a longitudinal axis L of the filling tube 1 and rotatable about its own longitudinal axis.
  • the longitudinal and rotational movement of the metering element 21 can be achieved in various ways.
  • the person skilled in the art is well-known for this purpose.
  • a lifting and rotation unit 3 is shown schematically. It comprises a rotary drive 32, for example a servomotor, a first and a second gearwheel 30, 31 connected thereto and a lifting drive 33, eg a servomotor, which acts on a pivoting lever 34 mounted on one side.
  • the metering element 2 has a closing head 22 at its lower end adjacent to the outlet opening. This protrudes in the filling position, i. in the position in which the outlet opening 11 is released on the lower side of the filling tube 1 out of this. This position is shown in Figures 1a and 3a.
  • the closing head 22 has at least one, here exactly one closing area 23 with a cylindrical lateral surface, i. a cylindrical outer surface, on.
  • this closing area is circular-cylindrical and extends over a length of 0.2 to 10 mm at a diameter of the closing head 22 at this point of 5 to 60 mm.
  • the closing area 23 can be designed as a sealing flange and be provided with a sealing ring or another sealing element. The sealing flange can, but does not necessarily have to rest against the hollow-cylindrical outlet region 14 of the filling tube 1.
  • the closing head 22 tapers above the closing area 23, i. to the interior of the filling tube 1, to a neck 24.
  • this tapered portion or neck 24 is frusto-conical.
  • other shapes for example a concave or convex outer surface of the tapered portion 24, are also possible.
  • the upper tapered region 24 preferably has a diameter which is at most half the diameter of the cylindrical closing region 23.
  • the closing head 22 also tapers below the closing area 23, i. outwardly.
  • a conical shape is preferred, such as a truncated cone or a cone.
  • other shapes such as convex or concave lateral surfaces, are not excluded.
  • the metering element 2 is a metering screw. It has a shaft 20 and at least one helically extending over at least approximately the entire length of the shaft 20 extending screw flight 21.
  • the screw 2 at least in its lower region an outer Diameter up, measured to the outer edge of the screw winding, which is at least approximately equal to or only a few percent smaller than the outer diameter of the closing portion 23.
  • the diameter of the shaft 24 preferably corresponds at least in the lower region of the smallest diameter of the upper tapered portion 24th ,
  • the metering element 21 may have a shaft, at the lower, the outlet opening 11 facing region of the shaft projecting flange is arranged, which at least approximately bridges the distance between the shaft and inner wall of the filling tube 1.
  • this flange preferably extends only over a part of the outer circumference of the shaft 20.
  • the flange may be arranged on the shaft 20 or above the closing area 23 on the closing head 22.
  • the metering element 2 rotates while the bulk material is being filled into the bag B1. Thanks to the tapered upper portion 24, the bulk material is distributed evenly, hurling the bulk material into both corner regions of the bag (see Figures 1b and 3b).
  • the rotational movement is stopped and the dosing element 2 is raised.
  • the tapered upper portion 24 facilitates the lifting.
  • the lifting and rotating movements are thus carried out intermittently.
  • the raised position is shown in FIGS. 2 and 4.
  • FIG. 5 shows a further aspect of the device according to the invention, which could also be used without the cylindrical closing head 23.
  • the filling tube 1 is here provided with at least one air conditioning duct 5, which cools or heats the bulk material located in the tube 1. Cooling, in particular water cooling, is preferred.
  • the air-conditioning duct 5 can be designed differently. It can spiral around the tube 1, extend radially or axially around the tube 1 in several subchannels or, as shown here, can be formed as an annular gap which extends at least approximately over the entire length of the filling tube 1. In the latter case, an outer with respect to the filling tube 1 coaxial cooling tube can be used.
  • the filling tube itself can also be double-walled, as shown here.
  • the temperature influence of the bulk material can preferably be achieved by water, which is passed through the air conditioning duct 5.
  • a feed channel 6 and a corresponding discharge channel 7 are present in the area of an upper flange-on means 4 of the filling pipe 1, which are both connected to the air-conditioning duct 5.
  • the device according to the invention thus enables a quick and well-defined closure of the outlet opening and offers self-cleaning when opening.
