Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport container for food products and a method for transporting food products, wherein a tank is used.
  • the conventional tanks have even more disadvantages.
  • the tank emptied by the user must be cleaned after returning to the manufacturer. This can be very complicated, in particular due to product adhesion to the inner walls of the tank.
  • the tanks must be checked regularly for their functionality, for example, the tightness of the tank must be checked because a leaking tank can not only leak product, but may also occur ingress of contaminated air, a product contamination may occur.
  • a transport container thus comprises a tank and an inliner arranged to be interchangeable in the tank for receiving the product.
  • transport containers which are used for transporting between the manufacturer of a food product and the processor or distributor.
  • transport containers for the transport of food ingredients, such as fruit or fruit pieces, used.
  • transport containers are preferably reusable transport containers, not disposable packaging, such as bag-in-box packages used for retail sale of wine or fruit juices and not intended for recycling.
  • the tank is formed Favor dimensionally stable, while the inliner is flexible and in the empty state a much smaller volume claims than the tank. When filling then increases the volume of the inliner, which then applies to the inner wall of the tank.
  • the tank can be designed so that the inliner can be switched into or out of the tank. After use of the inliner, so after emptying, thus the inliner can be quickly and easily removed from the transport container and a new inliner just as easily be introduced into the tank.
  • the tank may have a tapered, in particular funnel-shaped, outlet arranged in the lower region of the tank, the outlet opening of which is arranged eccentrically.
  • eccentric means here that the outlet opening is not centrally located at the bottom of the tank, but is arranged to the edge in the direction of the side wall of the tank.
  • the outlet opening can be aligned substantially vertically when the tank is stationary. This additionally facilitates the handling for the user and enables a simplified docking of a filling or emptying device from the side.
  • the outlet opening with a sufficiently large diameter, so that a human hand can reach through, preferably with a diameter of at least 10 cm, more preferably with a diameter of 12 to 16 cm, be formed.
  • a large spout allows the user to reach into the tank in order to align an in-tank in-line liner so that it can be safely filled.
  • the outlet opening can be chosen so large that the inliner can be introduced via this into the tank.
  • the tank can continue to have at least one viewing window, in particular at the outlet.
  • the viewing window the user has the opportunity to check whether the inliner unfolds during filling and applies as wrinkle-free as possible to the inner wall of the tank. When emptying can also be easily checked whether the liner was completely emptied.
  • the tank may have a retainer device, preferably in the upper half, more preferably on the cover, which serves to hold the inliner in the tank. Fastening the liner in an upper portion of the tank prevents the liner from filling unevenly, further promoting smooth application to the inner wall. Likewise, a twisting or knotting of the inliner is prevented, which in the worst case could lead to a bursting of the inliner.
  • the tank may have a lid with a closable opening for passing an inliner.
  • the inliner is inserted from above through the opening into the tank and the area over which the product is introduced into the inliner is aligned with the outlet opening, thanks to the large outlet opening through which the user can reach into the tank.
  • the tank may have a bottom with a closable opening for passing an inliner, wherein at least a part of the outlet may be provided on the closure of the opening.
  • the inliner is introduced by removing the lid or opening the lid in the tank and then the inliner can be aligned with the outlet opening of the outlet.
  • the inliner may have an outlet connection, wherein a closure device, in particular a membrane or rupture disk, is provided on the outlet connection for sterilizing the inner surface of the inliner.
  • a closure device in particular a membrane or rupture disk
  • a membrane or rupture disk has proven to be particularly advantageous, since these can be pierced or broken through themselves during filling by the food product, so that the interior of the inliner is protected from environmental influences until the last moment. Thus, a sufficient hygiene can be guaranteed especially for sterile food ingredients.
  • the outlet nozzle may have a smaller outer diameter than the outlet opening of the tank. This is particularly useful when the liner is inserted through the opening in the lid or in the ground, since then the outlet nozzle must be brought from the inside to the outlet opening of the outlet. By the large outlet opening, the user can reach into the tank, take the spout in his hand and then bring it to the outlet opening.
  • a centering disc can be used to center the outlet nozzle in the outlet opening of the tank. Since the outlet nozzle has a smaller outer diameter, it is ensured by means of the centering that the outlet nozzle is seated at its intended position and can not occur during filling or emptying by displacements of the outlet nozzle voltages on the liner, which lead in the worst case to a rupture of the liner could.
  • the centering is made possible by a positive connection between centering and outlet.
  • the centering disc may be formed integrally with the outlet nozzle.
  • an inliner is completely inserted through the outlet opening, i. H. a closable opening in the bottom or in the lid is not necessary.
  • the outlet nozzle can be correctly positioned with the centering disc.
  • an opening in the centering disc for receiving the outlet nozzle may be arranged eccentrically. Since the outlet opening has a larger outer diameter than the outlet nozzle, it is advantageous if the opening is arranged eccentrically in the centering, so that the outlet nozzle of the inliner can be arranged as far down the outlet opening, whereby a complete emptying of the inliner is promoted ,
  • a part of the outlet nozzle of the tank may project outwardly from the centering disk. At this part of the outlet nozzle can then be directly or indirectly attached to a filling or emptying device.
  • a valve device may be placed on the protruding part of the outer nozzle.
  • a conventional valve device such as are present on conventional tanks, standard filling / emptying devices can be used without having to provide further adapters.
  • At least one seal can lie in the mounted state between outlet nozzle and valve device. This prevents leakage of the food product.
  • a fastening means for securing the outlet nozzle may be provided at the outlet opening.
  • the fastening means can fix the outlet nozzle against rotation at the outlet opening. This measure prevents tensions when filling or emptying the inliner, which in the worst case could lead to cracks in the inliner.
  • the fastening means can also fasten the valve device sealingly on the outlet connection.
  • the fastening means can also fasten the valve device sealingly on the outlet connection.
  • the inliner may have an overpressure safety device, in particular a rupture disk or a safety valve, preferably a pressure relief valve.
  • an overpressure safety device in particular a rupture disk or a safety valve, preferably a pressure relief valve.
  • the overpressure safety means may be in communication with the outside of the tank. This ensures that in case of overfilling escaping food product does not pollute the inside of the tank. A cleaning of the inside is much more complex than a cleaning of the outside of the tank. Moreover, when the food product exits via the overpressure safety means, it is easily recognized that the filling of the inliner must be completed.
  • the inliner may include a support means for securing the inliner to the tank, especially in the upper half of the tank.
  • the inliner can be arranged hanging in the tank, whereby a possible wrinkle-free application is made possible on the inner wall of the tank.
  • the overpressure safety means may be provided on the holding means.
  • the overpressure safety means together with the holding means must be attached to the inliner next to the outlet connection only at a second location. This optimizes the production of the inliner.
  • the invention also relates to an inliner for use in a transport container as described above.
  • the inliner according to the invention is made of a food-compatible plastic film, in particular polypropylene or polyethylene, with a sterilized outlet nozzle. Since the transport container according to the invention gets its stability from the tank, you need to form the food product is not dimensionally stable material, but can conventional plastics, which are suitable for food transport, use. Furthermore, since the food product is transported within the potion, no additional light protection, such as aluminum foil, is needed on the liner. Preferably, therefore, the liner can only be made of plastic.
  • the outlet nozzle may have a closure device, in particular a membrane or rupture disk for sterilizing the inner surface of the inliner.
  • a membrane or rupture disk has proven to be particularly advantageous, since these can be pierced or broken through themselves during filling by the food product, so that the interior of the inliner is protected from environmental influences until the last moment. Thus, a sufficient hygiene can be guaranteed especially for sterile food ingredients.
  • the membrane or the rupture disk can preferably be designed so that it breaks free of fats under a predetermined pressure load. This prevents that fragments of the membrane or the rupture disk can get into the inliner and so can contaminate the food product.
  • the membrane or rupture disk can also be additionally configured such that the membrane or the rupture disk parts can not overlap when the inliner is emptied. Thus, obstruction of the emptying can be prevented.
  • the inliner may have an overflow protection means, in particular a rupture disk or a safety valve, preferably a pressure relief valve.
  • an overflow protection means in particular a rupture disk or a safety valve, preferably a pressure relief valve.
  • a retaining means may be provided for securing the liner within a tank.
  • the inliner can be arranged suspended in the tank, whereby a possible wrinkle-free application is made possible on the inner wall of the tank.
  • a marking can be provided on the holding means and / or overpressure securing means, indicating the orientation under which the inliner is to be introduced into the tank of the transport container with respect to the orientation of the outlet opening, so that after insertion of the inliner the outlet nozzle at the outlet opening lies. If the inliner is inserted from above into the tank, the user can recognize thanks to the marking for which orientation of the inliner the outlet nozzle in the lower area of the tank is opposite to the outlet opening. This prevents the inliner from being twisted or knotted inside the tank, which allows the most wrinkle-free filling possible.
  • the empty liner can be folded so that the inliner wrinkle-free on the inner wall of the tank when filling with the food product.
  • a Z-shaped fold has shown that the inliner can create as wrinkle-free as possible on the inner wall of the tank.
  • At least one adhesive strip or at least one rubber band can be arranged on the folded inliner, depending on the filling level, to deploy the inliner only partially. If the product runs into the inliner, the area unfolds first, which is not held together by adhesive strips or rubber bands. This results in the inliner first settling at the bottom of the tank before the liquid rises, which in turn limits the appearance of wrinkles.
  • the overpressure protection system and / or the holding means may be made of a weldable plastic. These can thus be produced cheaply and disinfected by irradiation.
  • the invention also relates to a tank for use in a transport container as described above.
  • the tank according to the invention comprises a tapering, in particular a funnel-shaped outlet arranged in the lower region of the tank, the outlet opening of which is arranged eccentrically. Thanks to the eccentric outlet opening, as described above, access to the inliner is simplified. This allows the inliner in the transport container to be easily aligned with the outlet opening.
  • the funnel-shaped outlet also makes it possible to emptying the inliner as completely as possible.
  • the tank may have at least one device for venting and / or venting. Since filling the inliner food product, the corresponding volume must be able to escape from the tank. This is done with a venting device. Likewise, a device for venting is provided for emptying to avoid a vacuum formation.
  • the invention also relates to a method for transporting food products in a transport container, which is characterized in that the food product is transported in an inliner arranged interchangeably in the interior of a tank.
  • the food product is no longer filled directly into the tank, but is located in a tank in-liner, eliminating the time and energy-consuming sterilization of the interior of the tank.
  • the used inliner is replaced by a new inliner, which also eliminates a costly cleaning.
  • the invention further relates to a method for preparing a filling or emptying of a transport container as described above, wherein at the outlet connection of the inliner a connecting piece is connected, which serves for connecting a filling or emptying device, characterized in that before connecting a filling or emptying device, the area is disinfected from the connector to the closure device of the outlet nozzle.
  • a cold disinfection is carried out here by spraying a disinfectant solution.
  • the connector may be the valve device, wherein a disinfectant is introduced through the open valve device in a gap between the valve device and closure device and then the valve device is closed, so that remains until filling or emptying of the disinfectant in the space.

  • the outlet connection 33 is fastened to the valve device 17 via the centering disk 47 on the connection flange 57 on the tank 3.
  • the holding means 25 is fastened to the closure 11, which in turn closes the opening in the lid region 9.
  • the inliner 31 has taken on the shape of the tank 3 in the filled state and is wrinkle-free against the inner wall of the tank 3.
  • transport container 1 for transporting food products, in particular sterile foodstuffs, will be described below.
  • step S1 the closure 11 is removed from the lid portion 9 of the tank 3. Thereafter, in step S2, the holding means 25 is guided through the opening in the closure 11 from the inside to the outside and with the help of the union nut 27 on the closure 11 sealingly attached. Then, in step S3, the inliner 31 is freely floated from above into the tank 3. It is important to ensure that the mark 46 is aligned so that the outlet nozzle 33 of the outlet opening 15 is opposite. This means that the inliner 31 just hangs in the installed state in the tank 3 and no tensions occur during filling. In step S4, the closure 11 is then secured against rotation on the lid 9 with the bayonet closure.
  • step S5 the outlet pipe 33 is pulled out through the outlet opening 15 of the tank 3 in step S5. Since the outlet opening 15 is formed large enough, can be handed by hand into the tank 3, the outlet nozzle 33 is taken and brought to the outlet opening. Then in step S6 the outlet nozzle 33 centered with the centering disk 47 in the outlet opening 15. With the bayonet lock, the outlet nozzle 33, which is arranged in a form-fitting manner in the centering disk 47, can then be secured against rotation on the connection flange 57 (step S7).
