Permanent magnets on the underneath of the filling member and on the upper side of the bell produce a flush closure.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Füllorgan für Gefäßfüllmaschinen mit einer austauschbaren Zentrierglocke für die Gefäßmündung.The invention relates to a filling device for vessel filling machines with an exchangeable centering bell for the vessel mouth.

Ein solches Füllorgan ist aus DE 872 017 C bekannt.Such a filling member is made DE 872 017 C known.

In Gefäßfüllmaschinen ist häufig ein Wechseln der Zentrierglocken erforderlich, z.B. wegen Verschleiß oder bei einer Umstellung der Gefäßfüllmaschine auf eine andere Gefäßsorte. Um den Austauschvorgang rasch und mühelos durchführen zu können, wurde bereits vorgeschlagen, die Zentrierglocke mittels eines manuell betätigten Federrings lösbar am zugehörigen Füllorgan zu fixieren ( DE-AS 1 261 769 ). Diese bekannte Bauweise ist relativ sperrig und raumgreifend und genügt nicht den heutigen mikrobiologischen Anforderungen.In container filling machines changing the centering is often required, for example due to wear or when changing the vessel filling machine to another type of vessel. In order to carry out the replacement process quickly and effortlessly, it has already been proposed to releasably fix the centering bell by means of a manually actuated spring ring on the associated filling element ( DE-AS 1 261 769 ). This known construction is relatively bulky and expansive and does not meet today's microbiological requirements.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zu Grunde, die bekannte Bauweise mit einfachen Mitteln zu verbessern.The invention is therefore based on the object to improve the known construction with simple means.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Halterung der Zentrierglocke durch einen magnetisch gesicherten Bajonettverschluss ermöglicht eine kompakte, glatte Bauweise und ist daher auch für den Einsatz in Steril-Gefäßfüllmaschinen und bei beengten Einbauverhältnissen geeignet.The mounting of the centering bell according to the invention by a magnetically secured bayonet closure enables a compact, smooth construction and is therefore also suitable for use in sterile vessel filling machines and in cramped installation conditions.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.Advantageous developments of the invention are contained in the subclaims.

Im Nachstehenden wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnungen beschrieben. Es zeigen:

In the following, an embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Show it:
FIG. 1
the side view of a filling member and the associated centering bell in the separated state,
FIG. 2
the perspective view of the filling after FIG. 1 .
FIG. 3
the perspective view of the filling after FIG. 1 with attached centering bell in the locked state.

Das Füllorgan 1 nach Figur 1 bis 3 ist zusammen mit einer Anzahl identischer Füllorgane am Umfang eines um eine senkrechte Achse D drehbaren Rotors R einer nicht weiter gezeigten Gefäßfüllmaschine befestigt. Es weist ein Gehäuse 2 auf, an dessen unterem Ende ein rotationssymmetrischer Füllstutzen 3 für die abzufüllende Flüssigkeit, z. B. ein stilles Mineralwasser, ausgebildet ist. Im Inneren des Gehäuses 2 ist ein Flüssigkeitskanal 4 mit einem steuerbaren Flüssigkeitsventil 5 ausgebildet, der über eine Leitung 6 mit einem nicht gezeigten Flüssigkeitsbehälter verbunden ist.The filling member 1 after Figure 1 to 3 is mounted together with a number of identical Füllorgane the periphery of a rotatable about a vertical axis D rotor R of a vessel filling machine not shown. It has a housing 2, at its lower end a rotationally symmetrical filler neck 3 for the liquid to be filled, z. B. a still mineral water is formed. Inside the housing 2, a liquid channel 4 is formed with a controllable liquid valve 5, which is connected via a line 6 with a liquid container, not shown.

Jedem Füllorgan 1 ist ein eigenes Huborgan 7 zugeordnet, das gleichfalls am Rotor R befestigt ist und einen Gefäßträger 8 aufweist. Dieser ist mit einer U-förmigen Ausnehmung versehen, in die eine zu füllende PET-Flasche F eingesetzt werden kann, derart, dass ihr Tragring T auf dem Gefäßträger 8 aufliegt.Each filling member 1 is assigned its own lifting member 7, which is likewise fastened to the rotor R and has a vessel carrier 8. This is provided with a U-shaped recess into which a PET bottle F to be filled can be inserted, such that its support ring T rests on the vessel carrier 8.

Am unteren Ende des Gehäuses 2 ist ein ringförmiger Ansatz 9 konzentrisch zum Füllstutzen 3 ausgebildet. In diesem Ansatz sind zwei um 180° versetzt nach unten hin offene, schlüssellochartige Ausnehmungen 10 ausbildet.. Diese weisen an einer Seite eine kreisförmige Öffnung und daran anschließend eine Verengung auf. Nahe jeder Ausnehmung 10 ist im Ansatz 9 jeweils ein Dauermagnet 15 befestigt, der bündig mit der unteren Stirnseite des Ansatzes 9 fluchtet.At the lower end of the housing 2, an annular projection 9 is formed concentrically to the filler neck 3. In this approach, two offset by 180 ° downwardly open, keyhole-like recesses 10 forms .. These have on one side of a circular opening and then a constriction. Near each recess 10, a permanent magnet 15 is fixed in the projection 9, which is aligned flush with the lower end face of the projection 9.

Zur Zentrierung der Mündung einer im Gefäßträger 8 hängenden Flasche F bezüglich des Füllstutzens 3 ist jedem Füllorgan 1 eine ringförmige Zentrierglocke 11 zugeordnet. Diese weist eine sich nach unten hin konisch erweiternde Zentrierbohrung 12 auf, deren Durchmesser an die Mündung der zu füllenden Flasche F angepasst ist.For centering the mouth of a hanging in the vessel carrier 8 bottle F with respect to the filler neck 3 each filling member 1 is associated with an annular centering bell 11. This has a downwardly conically widening center hole 12 whose diameter is adapted to the mouth of the bottle F to be filled.

An der Oberseite der Zentrierglocke 11 sind um 180° versetzt zwei Stifte 13 mit pilzartig verbreiterten Köpfen 14 befestigt, die parallel zur Mittelachse M der Zentrierglocke 11 verlaufen. Der Durchmesser der Köpfe 14 ist so bemessen, das diese in senkrechter Richtung von unten her in die Öffnungen der Ausnehmungen 10 eingeführt werden können. Der Durchmesser der Stifte 13 selbst ist derart bemessen, dass diese in den verengten Teil der Ausnehmungen 10 hineinverschwenkt werden können, wobei die Köpfe 14 von dem verengten Teil der Ausnehmungen 10 unterfangen werden. Auf diese Weise wird eine Bajonettverbindung B gebildet, die durch eine einfache Hub- Dreh- Bewegung ver- und entriegelt werden kann.At the top of the centering bell two pins 13 are fixed with mushroom-like widened heads 14 offset by 180 °, which extend parallel to the central axis M of the centering bell 11. The diameter of the heads 14 is dimensioned so that they can be inserted in the vertical direction from below into the openings of the recesses 10. The diameter of the pins 13 itself is dimensioned such that they can be pivoted into the constricted part of the recesses 10, wherein the heads 14 are underpinned by the narrowed part of the recesses 10. In this way, a bayonet connection B is formed, which can be locked and unlocked by a simple lifting-rotating movement.

Zur Fixierung der Zentrierglocke 11 in der Verriegelungsposition der Bajonettverbindung B sind an der Oberseite der Zentrierglocke 11 um 180° versetzt zwei Dauermagneten 16 befestigt, die mit der oberen Stirnseite der Zentrierglocke 11 fluchten. Diese Dauermagneten 16 wirken mit den beiden gleichfalls um 180° versetzten Dauermagneten 15 im Ansatz 9 zusammen. Ihre Winkelposition ist derart aufeinander eingestellt, dass sie miteinander fluchten, wenn die Zentrierglocke 11 ihre Verriegelungsposition einnimmt (Fig. 3). Die Pole der Dauermagneten 15, 16 sind derart angeordnet, dass in dieser Position eine maximale Anziehung der Dauermagneten in dem Ansatz 9 einerseits und der Zentrierglocke 11 andererseits stattfindet. Durch diese Anziehung entsteht eine stabile Fixierung der Zentrierglocke 11 in ihrer Arbeitsposition, so dass ein selbsttätiges Lösen im Betrieb absolut zuverlässig verhindert wird. Gleichzeitig erfolgt durch die Anziehungskraft der Dauermagneten 15, 16 ein Ausgleich eventuell vorhandenen Spiels, wodurch die Zentrierglocke 11 in der Verriegelungsposition eine spielfreie Lage einnimmt.To fix the centering bell 11 in the locking position of the bayonet connection B are offset by 180 ° at the top of the centering two Permanent magnets 16 attached, which are aligned with the upper end face of the centering bell 11. These permanent magnets 16 cooperate with the two equally offset by 180 ° permanent magnet 15 in the projection 9 together. Their angular position is adjusted to one another in such a way that they are aligned with one another when the centering bell 11 assumes its locking position ( Fig. 3 ). The poles of the permanent magnets 15, 16 are arranged such that in this position a maximum attraction of the permanent magnets takes place in the projection 9 on the one hand and the centering bell 11 on the other. This attraction creates a stable fixation of the centering bell 11 in its working position, so that an automatic release during operation is absolutely reliably prevented. At the same time takes place by the attractive force of the permanent magnet 15, 16, a balance possibly existing game, whereby the centering bell 11 assumes a play-free position in the locking position.

Zum Entriegeln des Bajonettverschlusses B wird die Zentrierglocke 11 etwas im Uhrzeigersinn verdreht, bis die Köpfe 14 in der Öffnung der Ausnehmungen 10 stehen. Die Stärke der Dauermagneten 15, 16 ist so bemessen, dass dies manuell vorgenommen werden kann. Danach kann die Zentrierglocke 11 nach unten hin vom Füllorgan 1 abgenommen werden. Das Befestigen der Zentrierglocke 11 am Füllorgan 1 erfolgt mit umgekehrtem Bewegungsablauf.To unlock the bayonet lock B, the centering bell 11 is rotated slightly clockwise until the heads 14 are in the opening of the recesses 10. The strength of the permanent magnets 15, 16 is such that this can be done manually. Thereafter, the centering bell 11 can be removed downwards from the filling member 1. The fixing of the centering bell 11 on the filling member 1 is carried out with reversed movement.
