Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Maschine zum Füllen von Bechern gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a machine for filling cups according to the preamble of
Bekannte Maschinen zum Füllen von Bechern sind mit Konstruktionen in Form von Becherfüllwerken versehen (
In
Die Erfindung befaßt sich mit dem Problem, eine an sich bekannte Maschine zum Füllen von Bechern zu schaffen, bei der in einfach zuführbaren Bechern mit geringem Steuerungsaufwand eine mengen- und lagenvariable Lenkung und Verteilung von Produktströmen erreichbar ist und auch bei einem Wechsel deren Zusammensetzungen unterbrechungsfreie sowie weitgehend ohne Umrüstaufwand durchführbare Füllphasen möglich sind.The invention is concerned with the problem to provide a known per se machine for filling cups, in which easily controllable cups with little control effort a variable volume and variable steering and distribution of product streams can be achieved and even with a change in their compositions uninterrupted and are largely possible without retooling feasible filling phases.
Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe mit einer Maschine mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Hinsichtlich weiterer Ausgestaltungen wird auf die Ansprüche 2 bis 8 verwiesen.The invention solves this problem with a machine having the features of
Die erfindungsgemäß aufgebaute Maschine wirkt im Bereich ihrer zum Füllvorgang vorgesehenen Füll- und Bewegungsbaugruppen mit einer programmierbaren Steuerung zusammen, die mit einfachen Mitteln eine weitgehend variable Erzeugung von dekorativen und optisch ansprechenden Füllstrukturen in den Bechern ermöglicht. Die getaktet positionierbaren Becher werden in der einen an sich bekannten Füllvorgang ausführenden Maschine zu einer oder mehreren Dosierstationen hin verlagert. Hier werden jeweilige auch unterschiedliche Konsistenz aufweisende Produktströme mittels der programmierbaren Steuerung und in Abstimmung mit jeweiligen von dieser vorgegebenen Fülldüsenvedagerungen so in die ortsfesten Becher zugeführt, daß entsprechend den programmierten Schwenk- und Hubbewegungen sowie der Produktmenge die im Becher erzeugten Füllstrukturen variieren.The inventively constructed machine cooperates with a programmable controller in the area of its filling and movement assemblies provided for the filling process, which enables a largely variable generation of decorative and visually appealing filling structures in the cups by simple means. The clocked positionable cups are moved in the one known per se filling operation machine to one or more dosing out. In this case, respective product streams, which also have different consistency, are fed into the stationary beakers by means of the programmable controller and, in coordination with the respective filling nozzle widenings predetermined by the latter. that vary according to the programmed pivoting and lifting movements and the amount of product produced in the cup filling structures.
Mit diesem Füllkonzept kann eine bei bekannten Maschinen bisher nicht erreichte Vielfalt von Füllstrukturen einfach geplant, im Programm der Steuerung vorgegeben, mittels der Fülldüsen-Steuerung variiert und ohne zusätzliche Bewegung der Becher in der Füllphase erzeugt werden. Mit diesem erfindungsgemäß verbesserten Maschinen-Konzept wird der Füllvorgang an kundehspezifisch variable Bechergestaltungen angepaßt. Die jeweiligen Nahrungs- und/oder Genußmittel können als strukturierte Becherfüllung optisch ansprechend kombiniert, optimal präsentiert und werbewirksam bereitgestellt werden.With this filling concept, a variety of filling structures that have not hitherto been achieved in known machines can be simply planned, predetermined in the program of the control, varied by means of the filling nozzle control and produced without additional movement of the cups in the filling phase. With this inventively improved machine concept, the filling process is adapted to customer-specific variable cup designs. The respective foodstuffs and / or stimulants can be visually appealing, optimally presented and promoted as a structured cup filling.
Die variablen Füllstrukturen in den insbesondere aus durchsichtigem Material bestehenden Bechern werden durch einen mit der Maschinen-Steuerung verbundenen Computer erzeugt, mit dem durch einfache Änderungen von Programmdaten die Verteilung von mehreren, insbesondere farblich unterschiedlichen Produktströmen aus den Fülldüsen beeinflußbar ist, Die Produktströme werden insbesondere aufsteigend vom Becherboden zu dekorativen Farbkombinationen vereinigt. Die Produkte können auch entsprechend dem Computerprogramm an mehreren Dosierstationen nacheinander in die in jeder der Füllphasen ortsfest gehaltenen Becher eingebracht und hier als geometrische Figuren in variabler Vielfalt sichtbar werden. Denkbar sind dabei neben mehrfarbigen horizontalen Schichtungen vor allem punktuelle, schraubenlinienförmige, vertikal stufenförmige, kegelförmige o. dgl. Strukturen bzw. Strukturkombinationen. Dabei ist das vorgesehene Steuerungs-Konzept der Maschine dadurch vereinfacht, daß nur Steuerbewegungen, z. B. mittels Servomotoren, im Bereich der Dosierbaugruppen erforderlich sind, zu denen die Becher horizontal getaktet hinbewegt werden. Die zur bisher üblichen vertikalen Bewegung der Becher erforderlichen Halte- und Führungsbaugruppen bekannter Füllsysteme sind dabei entbehrlich, da erfindungsgemäß die Kombination von vertikaler Fülldüsen-Bewegung, Drehung der Fülldüsen und phasenweiser Produktstromeinleitung genutzt wird und damit der technische Aufwand wesentlich reduziert ist.The variable filling structures in the cups, which are made in particular of transparent material, are produced by a computer connected to the machine control, with which the distribution of several, in particular color-different product streams from the filling nozzles can be influenced by simple changes of program data. The product streams are in particular ascending from the cup bottom to decorative color combinations. The products can also be introduced according to the computer program at several dosing stations in succession in the held in each of the filling phases cup and visible here as geometric figures in variable variety. In addition to multicolor horizontal layers, punctiform, helical, vertically stepped, conical or the like structures or structural combinations are conceivable. The planned control concept is the Machine simplified in that only control movements, z. B. by means of servomotors, in the range of Dosierbaugruppen are required, to which the cups are moved horizontally clocked. The previously required vertical movement of the cups holding and guiding assemblies known filling systems are unnecessary, since according to the invention the combination of vertical Fülldüsen movement, rotation of the filling nozzles and phased introduction of product flow is used and thus the technical complexity is substantially reduced.

In Fig. 1 zeigt eine Prinzipdarstellung eine insgesamt mit 1 bezeichnete Maschine zum Füllen von Bechern 2, in die im Bereich jeweiliger Dosierstationen 3, 3', 3" Nahrungs- und Genußmittel eingebracht werden. In der dargestellten Ausführung weist die an sich bekannte Maschine 1 drei in Reihe hintereinander in Vorschubrichtung R der Becher 2 angeordnete Dosierstationen 3 auf, wobei auch Ausführungen mit einer veränderten Anzahl von Dosierstationen denkbar ist und in Querrichtung mehrere Dosierstationen nebeneinander angeordnet sein können (nicht dargestellt). Die Dosierstationen 3, 3', 3" weisen ausgangsseitig jeweilige Zulaufleitungen 4, 5 auf, die im Bereich jeweiliger Dosierbaugruppen 6 über eine jeweilige Fülldüse 7 die Einleitung von Produktströmen (Pfeil A, A'; B, B'; C, C') in die bereitgestellten Becher 2' ermöglichen. Diese an sich bekannte Maschine 1 mit Fülldüsen 7 weist bisher Becherfüllwerke nach Art von mechanisch gesteuerten Revolverköpfen auf, so daß bei einer Variation des Füllgutes eine aufwendige Umrüstung der Maschine 1 erforderlich ist. Bei diesen bekannten Systemen wird der Becher 2' in einer Hubrichtung H angehoben und während des Füllvorgangs synchron mit dem zulaufenden Produktstrom A, B abgesenkt. Durch jeweilige zusätzlich zu steuernde Bewegungen H" und S' im Bereich der Zuführöffnungen in den Fülldüsen 7 wird deren Öffnungs- bzw. Schließstellung durch schwenk- bzw. schiebbare Teile in den Fülldüsen 7 gesteuert, wobei deren Lage zu einer Förderebene E unverändert ist.1 shows a schematic diagram of a machine, generally designated 1, for filling
Die erfindungsgemäß weiterentwickelte Maschine 1 (Fig. 2 bis 6) zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß nunmehr jeweilige Bewegungsmöglichkeiten im Bereich der Fülldüsen 7 vorgesehen werden und diese als erweiterte Funktionsbaugruppen der Maschine 1 mit einer programmierbaren Steuerung 8 zusammenwirken. Bei diesem Konzept ist vorgesehen, daß nur noch eine direkte Schwenk- und/oder eine Hubbewegung S' bzw. H" der Dosierbaugruppen 6 genutzt und dabei die jeweiligen Produktförderströme A, B, C bzw. A', B', C' entsprechend vorgebbarer Bewegungsmuster und Füllabläufe durch die Steuerung 8 beeinflußt werden (Fig. 2 bis Fig. 5). Durch eine entsprechend kreativ gestaltbare Programmierung der Steuerung 8 ist mit variablen Füllvorgängen eine Vielzahl von weitgehend variablen Füllstrukturen in den Bechern 2'erzeugbar.The inventively further developed machine 1 (FIGS. 2 to 6) is characterized in that now respective movement possibilities in the area of the
Die aus den Zeichnungen ersichtlichen Phasen bei Anwendung der Maschine 1 verdeutlichen, daß die getaktet in einer Förderebene E zu den Dosierstationen 3, 3', 3" verlagerbaren Becher 2 mit den unterschiedlichen Produktströmen A, B, C füllbar sind. Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Integration der Steuerung 8 in das Maschinenkonzept sind variable Füllstrukturen (jeweilige vergrößerte Darstellungen von Bechern 2" in Fig. 2 bis 5) vorteilhaft mittels einer der Steuerung zugeordneten Computer-Anlage 11 erzeugbar, wobei diese mit geringem Aufwand an eine an sich bekannte Maschine 1 anpaßbar ist.The phases which can be seen from the drawings when the
Mittels veränderbarer Programmdaten des Computers 11 im Bereich der Steuerung 8 sind nur noch jeweilige Durchlaßstellungen von Produktkanälen der Fülldüsen 7 zur Produktzuführung vorzugeben, wobei gleichzeitig jeweilige Bewegungen im Bereich der Dosierbaugruppe 6 (Hubbewegung H', Schwenkung S) entsprechend der ausgewählten Produkt-Struktur weg- und volumengenau gesteuert werden. Durch zeitliche Abfolge der Bewegungen H' und S und deren Überlagerung mit den Produktströmen A, A'; B, B' und/oder C, C' (die durch an sich bekannte Öffnungsbewegungen H und S' der Düsen 7 steuerbar sind) wird eine optisch ansprechende Verteilung unterschiedlicher Produkte in den Bechern 2' erreicht.By means of variable program data of the
Durch die dargestellte Aneinanderreihung der vorzugsweise drei Dosierstationen 3, 3', 3" können nacheinander mehrere Produktströme in einen Becher 2 eingebracht werden und dabei durch die jeweiligen aus dem Programm des Computers 11 auswählbare Bewegungsabläufe die unterschiedlichen Füllstrukturen nach unterschiedlichen Mustern erzeugt werden, wie dies mit den jeweiligen Bechern 2" (Fig. 2 bis 5) gezeigt ist.As a result of the juxtaposition of the preferably three
Diese Steuerung des Füllvorganges ist so optimiert, daß auf der Maschine 1 ohne Unterbrechung des Füllvorganges die nacheinander bzw. parallel zugeführten Becher 2 mit wechselnden Füllstrukturen befüllbar sind. Dabei sind mechanische Einstellungen von Bewegungsbaugruppen und/oder deren zusätzliche Montage im Bereich der Becherhalterung entbehrlich. Ebenso ist denkbar, daß bei laufendem Betrieb der Maschine 1 die Steuerung 8 durch veränderte Programmdaten im Bereich des Computers 11 auf eine neue Füll-Variante eingestellt wird und damit ein unterbrechungsfreier Füllvorgang möglich ist.This control of the filling process is optimized so that the successively or parallel supplied
In den dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen ist die die Füllstruktur beeinflussende Steuerung 8 mit drei Dosierstationen 3, 3', 3" verbunden, wobei zumindest vier Dosierbaugruppen 6, 6', 6", 6"' bzw. deren jeweilige Füllköpfe 7 paarweise fortlaufend zu einer Reihe verbunden sind. In den Darstellungen gemäß Fig. 2 bis 5 sind die zur Bewegungssteuerung vorgesehenen Signalleitungen (elektrisch, per Funk o. dgl.In the illustrated embodiments, the control structure influencing the
Ausführungen denkbar) durch jeweilige Strich-Punkt-Linien P veranschaulicht, mit denen die Beeinflußbarkeit entsprechend dem vorgesehenen Steuerungsablauf deutlich wird; ohne diese jeweiligen Leitungen P im Einzelnen nochmals zu beschreiben.Embodiments imaginable) by respective dashed-dot lines P, with which the influenceability in accordance with the intended control sequence is clear; without describing these respective lines P in detail again.
Bei der Becherfüllung gemäß Fig. 2 wird ein gemäß dem Produktstrom-Pfeil A verlagerter Produkt-Anteil 12 in den (unterhalb der Förderebene E vergrößert dargestellten) Becher 2" verbracht. Die verlagerbare Fülldüse 7 wird in einer Hubrichtung H' im Bereich der inneren Förderkanäle geöffnet und danach kann der Produkt-Anteil 12 von der Dosierstation 3 (mit Produkt A) über jeweilige als Servomotoren ausgebildete Füllantriebe 10 volumengenau in den Becher 2" eingedrückt werden. Dabei ist es nicht mehr erforderlich, den in der Ebene E zugeführten Becher 2' mittels eines nicht näher dargestellten Antriebes in der bisher (Fig. 1) bekannten Hubrichtung H anzuheben bzw. abzusenken.2, a
Nach dieser ersten Füllphase (Teilfüllung 12) wird der Becher 2' in der Vorschubebene E getaktet weitergegeben und gelangt bis in den Bereich der Dosierbaugruppe 6". Bei dieser Beispiel-Füllung gemäß Fig. 2 wird die jeweilige Füllposition durch eine Drehbewegung S und die Hubbewegung H' im Bereich der jeweiligen Fülldüse 7 so beeinflußt, daß oberhalb des Produkt-Anteils 12 ein jeweiliger Produkt-Anteil 13 aus der Dosierstation 3' (Produkt B) abgefüllt wird und erst danach ein Produkt-Anteil 14 aus der Dosierstation 3" als ein Punktmuster entsprechend dem gesteuerten Ablauf zwischengefüllt wird. Auch hierbei ist es nicht mehr erforderlich, den Becher mittels eines aufwendigen Antriebs anzuheben (Pfeil H, Fig. 1), da nur mittels der höhenverlagerbaren Dosierbaugruppe 6" die Füllstruktur erzeugt wird. Neben der Bewegungssteuerung H', S sind dabei die jeweiligen Füllantriebe 10 entsprechend dem Programmablauf gesteuert, wobei insbesondere vorgesehen ist, daß nur die Bewegungen H' und S genutzt werden.After this first filling phase (partial filling 12), the cup 2 'is passed on clocked in the feed level E and reaches into the area of the metering module 6 ". In this example filling according to FIG. 2, the respective filling position is determined by a rotary movement S and the lifting movement H 'in the region of the
Denkbar ist dabei, daß die Bewegungen H' und S auch gleichzeitig mit vorgegebener Geschwindigkeit ablaufen. Ebenso ist denkbar, daß eine jeweilige Gruppe von Bechern 2 gefüllt wird und auch die Dosierbaugruppen 6' bzw. 6" zum Einsatz kommen (Steuerverbindungen nicht dargestellt).It is conceivable that the movements H 'and S also occur simultaneously at a predetermined speed. It is also conceivable that a respective group of
In Fig. 3 ist eine zweite Variante bei der Erzeugung einer Füllstruktur im Becher 2" dargestellt, wobei mit den entsprechenden Strich-Punkt-Pfeilen die Steuerverbindungen mit dem Computer 11 der Maschine 1 ähnlich Fig. 2 veranschaulicht sind. Ersichtlich ist dabei eine Füllung mit den Produkt-Anteilen 12' und 13' mittels der Dosierstationen 3, 3' und 3' vorgesehen, wobei die Produkte 12' und 13' gleichzeitig unter Anhebung (bzw. Absenkung) der Fülldüsen 7 im Bereich der Dosierbaugruppe 6' eingebracht werden. Nach getakteter Weitergabe des entsprechenden Bechers 2' wird dieser im Bereich der Dosierbaugruppe 6"' noch mit einem zusätzlichen Produkt-Anteil 14' versehen, wobei dieser aus der Dosierstation 3" dadurch ausgefördert wird, daß deren entsprechende Füllantriebe 10 wirksam werden.3 shows a second variant in the production of a filling structure in the
In Fig. 4 ist in analoger Darstellung zu den vorbeschriebenen Ausführungen die Erzeugung einer wendelförmigen Füllstruktur mit den als 15 und 16 bezeichneten Produkt-Anteilen dargestellt. Hier wird in einem ersten Verfahrensschritt (ähnlich Fig. 2, linke Seite) der Produkt-Anteil 12 als Basis in den Becher 2' eingebracht und danach werden im Bereich der Dosierbaugruppe 6" die beiden spiralförmigen Füllstrukturen 15, 16 erzeugt, wobei die Produkte B' und C gleichzeitig zugeführt und die dargestellten Bewegungen H' und S initialisiert werden. Damit wird deutlich, daß bereits mit dieser Schwenk- und Hubführung der Fülldüsen 7 eine Vielzahl von unterschiedlichen Füllstrukturen erzeugbar ist. Die an sich bekannte Becher-Bewegung H könnte im Bedarfsfall zusätzlich in das Füllsystem bzw. das Steuerungsprogramm integriert werden (nicht dargestellt).FIG. 4 shows, in an analogous representation to the above-described embodiments, the production of a helical filling structure with the product portions designated as 15 and 16.
