Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closing machine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Advantageous developments are specified in the subclaims.
  • Closing machines for closing containers such as e.g. Bottles with caps by screwing or by crown corks are basically known (US 20 76 631).
  • the closure caps used in the screw closure consist for example of metal (eg aluminum), but preferably also of plastic. These plastic caps are prefabricated with an internal thread, with which they are screwed for closing on the provided at the bottle mouth external thread of the bottle and tightened there with a predetermined torque.
  • a design has prevailed in which a plurality of screw units are provided in a rotating rotating rotor, whose shaft is rotated in the usual embodiment of a seated on the shaft pinion, which runs on a stationary gear on the stator gear.
  • the shaft in turn rotates the screw head to which the cap has previously been fed in the usual clamping engagement.
  • the screw units are successively moved by the circulation of the rotor by their height control, which consists for example of a non-revolving stroke curve down to the bottle underneath and screw it while the cap on the bottle.
  • crown corkers and screw cappers differ essentially in that the screw units are replaced by deformation units which the crown corks during the Verschiervorganges so that they seal the container airtight.
  • crown coppers in most cases have a central height adjustment, which makes it possible to adapt the machine to different container heights.
  • Allen capping machines have in common that they are located in close proximity to the expiry of previous filling machines. Two variants are preferred in practice. First, capping machines are often placed on the pre-table usually associated with a filling machine. It is also known to form capping machines as a stand-alone machine, and this e.g. with conveyor belts to the previous filling machine and the following components of the plant.
  • capping machines have a comparatively complicated construction. This structure is due to the fact that circumferential and non-rotating components are arranged in a nested structure.
  • the rotating components include the container carriers, the closing or screw heads with the associated support element, the lifting or lowering elements for closing or screwing heads or containers.
  • the non-rotating components include the drive motor, the drive train, the cam track (s) for the lifting or lowering elements.
  • the design of the drive known capping machines is relatively complex and expensive. For example, it is customary to transmit the required drive power directly from this to the capping machine by means of a mechanical coupling with the associated filling machine. The components required for this cause a high cost in manufacture and assembly.
  • Object and purpose of the present invention is to form a capping machine, which is characterized by a particularly simple and therefore cost-effective structure and in which the cleaning of the machine is further improved while reducing costs.
  • the present invention proposes a closing machine according to the characterizing part of claim 1, further advantageous developments are components of the dependent claims.
  • Vors As shown in Figure 1, allow novel designs of Vortisch for container treatment machines required for beverage bottling components or machines such as transport stars or rinsers, filling and sealing machines in a simple and cost-effective manner to interconnect.
  • the previously customary Vortic be replaced by rod-shaped connecting elements, said connecting elements connect the treatment machines together and, if necessary, other elements such as transfer, inlet and outlet stars, inlet screws and guides record or form a fixture for this.
  • FIG. 2 shows, as an exemplary embodiment of a closing machine 13 according to the invention, a screw capper of a circulating design.
  • This sealing machine has as essential components on a non-rotating central or central column 16, and is connected mechanically and / or power flow technology only on the basis of this central column 16 with the surrounding space.
  • the central column 16 is arranged in the exemplary embodiment shown on a connecting element 14 which, for example, establishes a connection to a filling machine.
  • the connecting element 14 in turn is supported by means of a support foot 15 on the hall floor.
  • the scope of the present invention is not abandoned even if the center pillar 16 is fixed directly or indirectly on the hall floor or a base frame or housing.
  • the central column 16 merges into a top plate 17.
  • this top plate is first to form the recordings or attachment points for the following, not with the gyroscope 2 of the capping machine components: rotation or drive motor 18 of the gyro, lift curve 19 for the up and down movement of the screw 20, drive teeth 28 for the generation of the rotational movement of the screw 20, inlet star 21 and outlet star 22nd
  • the drive motor 18 drives on a arranged on its output shaft pinion on the gyro 2 mounted external teeth 23 and thus offset the gyroscope 2 in the desired rotational movement.
  • the drive motor 18 is mounted on the top plate 17, but other mounting positions such as e.g. the central column 16 conceivable.
  • the drive motor 18 is preferably a so-called servo or synchronous motor.
  • servo or synchronous motor mean any type of drive motor which can be operated in a regulated manner, wherein individually or in any combination, for example, angle of rotation, direction of rotation, angular velocity and torque of the motor are controlled by a control device, e.g. specified by a host, the achieved actual values are determined by sensors, compared with the target values and any deviations are corrected by automatic countermeasures.
  • the present invention makes it possible to dispense with the complex and expensive mechanical coupling of the rotational movements of filling and sealing machine.
  • the present invention also provides for driving the entry and exit stars 21, 22, which are fastened only to the top plate 17, directly by the rotary movement of the gyro 2.
  • a pinion 25 is first arranged on the top plate 17, which is driven by the external toothing 23 of the rotating top 2.
  • the rotational movement of the pinion 25 is transmitted to the stars 21 and 22 by means of suitable elements, such as toothed belts 26 and toothed belt wheels 27.
  • the fixed non-rotating central column 16 of a closing machine 13 which is mechanically connected to the surrounding space only by said central column 16, to be free from mechanical transmission elements, e.g. Drive shafts, thereby providing, if necessary, only lines for kinetic energy and / or electrical or optical control information and / or fluids, e.g. Hydraulic fluid or compressed air to be passed through the central column 16.
  • optically present control information e.g. To understand understood by optical fiber information to control the capping machine, wherein the optical transmission is characterized by a special insensitivity to interference and high speed.
