Definitions

  • the invention relates to a use according to claim 1.
  • Container DE 100 34 907 A1
  • a plurality of treatment position are formed on the circumference of a rotatable about a vertical axis of the machine rotatable rotor, each with a plate-like container carrier.
  • the container with its container bottom are upright and oriented with its container axis oriented in the vertical direction and are moved past the rotating rotor at processing stations, for example when forming the machine as a labeling machine to labeling units.
  • the container carriers are rotatably controlled by an actuator about a container carrier axis.
  • Each actuator forms together with an electric motor drive, with control electronics and at least one angular position or the respective angle of rotation of the electric motor drive and thus the container carrier measuring sensor a fully functional modular unit, which is provided interchangeably on the rotor and u.a. for transmitting control commands via a partially formed in the rotor external bus system with a central, the machine controlling computer is in communication.
  • the modular design of the actuators inter alia, the ability to replace a defective actuator against a properly working actuator and carry out a possible repair of the defective actuator outside the machine, for example, in a user-independent of the machine special or repair operation.
  • the disadvantage here is that the cause of defects or malfunctions in many cases, especially after the removal of the actuator from the machine is no longer traceable and must be determined only in a very complex error diagnosis.
  • the object of the invention is to show a use which avoids this disadvantage.
  • a use according to the patent claim 1 is formed.
  • the actuator according to the invention is suitable, for example, as an actuator for container carriers in general, for example for plate-shaped container carriers on which the containers are placed with their bottom up, or for container carriers, where the containers are kept hanging, in each case for aligning the orientation of the container for the treatment, for example labeling.
  • the actuator can also be used for other functions in machines or devices for treating bottles, cans or the like.
  • the particular advantage of the actuator used according to the invention is that in the example designed as a flash memory memory, the current operating parameters and error data or messages from the control and monitoring electronics of the actuator, for example, by comparing measured or determined current operating parameters (as actual value ) are determined with predetermined set values of these operating parameters, constantly, that is stored in short time consecutive time intervals.
  • the storage of the operating parameters as well as the error data or messages preferably takes place in the manner of a protocol together with the current date and the current time.
  • the setpoints used to determine errors are stored or stored, for example, in the control electronics, ie. for example, fixed and / or be, if these setpoints are product-dependent, i. e.g. are dependent on the currently treated containers, the type of treatment, etc., read at work from the central control unit or from the central computer of the machine via the external bus system in the memory of the control electronics of the actuators.
  • Occurring faults or deviations from setpoints are then displayed, for example via the external bus system to the central computer of the machine.
  • the actuators By individually stored in the actuators operating parameters and / or error data or messages on the external bus system, for example, a fault diagnosis even when the machine is running, so that a correction of the fault or the error in an actuator tries in still on the machine left actuator can be, for example, by transmitting the stored or logged operating parameters and error data eg via remote data transmission (e.g., Internet) to an operator specialized in troubleshooting the actuators, such as the manufacturer of the machine and / or associated actuators.
  • remote data transmission e.g., Internet
  • the actuator used in the invention forms a modular unit that is fully functional and requires only a connection to the electrical supply and external control lines, for example, to an external bus system for their function.
  • the generally designated 1 in the figures machine is used to treat bottles, cans or the like container 2, which are fed to the machine 1 via a feed dog 3 on a container inlet formed by a star conveyor 4 and after treating by a transport star. 5 formed container outlet are removed via the feed dog 3.
  • the machine 1 which is used, for example, for labeling and / or printing on the containers 2, has a large number of treatment positions on the periphery of a rotor 6, which is driven peripherally around a vertical machine axis. are each formed by a container carrier 7, to which the container 2 are transferred to the container inlet 4 individually and on which the container 2 with its bottom rising, with its container axis oriented in the vertical direction with the rotating rotor 6 are moved past treatment stations, not shown.
  • the container carriers 7 are u.a. for an alignment of the container 2, for example when printing and / or labeling about its axis controlled parallel to the vertical machine axis rotatable so that each container 2 can be brought by turning the container carrier 7 in the orientation required in each case.
  • the module 8 further includes an interface 14, via which the module 8 with an external bus system, which is at least partially also on the rotor 6, for a bidirectional data transmission, in particular also for a transmission of control commands and other data, such as. Error messages or the acknowledgment of control commands, with a central, the machine 1 controlling computer 15 is connected.
  • the module 8 has at least one preferably multipolar connection 16, via which the electrical supply of the module 8 takes place with the operating voltage (s).
  • a special feature of the module 8 is that this or the local control electronics 10 is provided with a memory 17, which consists for example of several memory units and in which at least all the essential operating data or parameters as well as any error or error messages
  • a memory 17 which consists for example of several memory units and in which at least all the essential operating data or parameters as well as any error or error messages
  • disturbances in the field of bus systems, deviations of the angular position and / or the rotational angle of the electric motor drive 9 and the container carrier 7 of each predetermined setpoints, impermissible temperatures, increased currents and thus torques of the electric motor drive 9, etc. are constantly stored or logged and together with others, among others also transmitted via the external bus system data such. Time, date, type of containers treated, etc.
  • each module 8 In order to define the position of each module 8 on the circumference of the rotor 6, it is also possible to provide on each module 8 a unit 18, for example a reading unit, with which a coding defining the respective position on the rotor 5 is read out, which then also for example in FIG the memory 17 of the control and monitoring electronics 10 is stored. If the control and monitoring electronics 10 are formed by a microprocessor, then the necessary programs are stored in the memory 17.
  • the storage of the operating parameters and error data or messages is always current, in the form that the corresponding data in the memory 17 and in a space provided there are constantly read at predetermined short intervals and when the maximum storage capacity is reached, the oldest data is deleted in order to create storage space for further, in particular newer, more up-to-date data.
  • the control and monitoring electronics 10 is further designed so that when serious errors or malfunctions and / or when a certain error occurs more frequently, via the external bus system an error message is sent to the central computer 15 so that a targeted fault diagnosis and possibly a targeted replacement of the defective module 8 is possible.
  • the module 8 serves for the controlled movement of a respective dish-shaped container carrier 7.
  • the drive module 8 can also be used for the controlled movement of other elements of a machine or device for treating containers 2, for example also for the controlled movement of container carriers, on which the containers are held suspended.
