Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for filling bottles with a liquid product according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a device with the features of the preamble of claim 1 DE 33 25 338 A1
  • the valve body of the filling valve is formed by an outer tube rigidly attached to a product tank of the device.
  • a ring body is arranged, which is displaceable axially relative to the valve body by the respective bottle for activating the filling valve or for releasing the product flow.
  • the ring body is guided via sealing rings on the inner surface of the valve body telescopically.
  • a valve body and the annular body connecting elastic and liquid-tight sleeve is provided internally.
  • the filling valve is structurally complex.
  • the invention has for its object to ensure the simplest possible structure of the device as sterile as possible filling, i. To minimize the access of germs when filling the bottles. To solve this problem, a device according to the patent claim 1 is formed.
  • Another particular advantage of this design is that the interior of the valve is significantly smaller.
  • the apparatus generally designated generally as 1 in section and schematically in the figures is used to fill bottles 2, which are supplied, for example, to the filling device 1 in suspended transport, wherein the bottle necks 2a are inserted into a holder 3 with the corresponding transport collar.
  • the bottles 2 are a generally designated 4, in Fig. 2 enlarged illustrated valve from a product tank 5 filled.
  • the feed line of the filling material is denoted by 6 and can be formed, for example, at least partially by a transparent silicone or rubber hose.
  • the designated 7 valve body is connected via a lifting roller 8, which has a in Fig. 1 indicated slide surface 9 runs, be lifted, the lowering is done substantially by gravity. This lifting and lowering movement is in Fig. 1 indicated by a double arrow 10.
  • the valve body has for gas recirculation from the bottle 2 during the filling process, a through hole 11 which is connected to the product tank 5 via a gas recirculation line 12.
  • the valve body 7 has at its upper end in the direction of gravity a stop collar 13 in order to limit the lowering movement.
  • valve body 7 is provided at its lower end in the direction of gravity with a blind bore 14 in which a passage opening 11 continuing guide cylinder 15 is fixed, which has an outer diameter which is smaller than the inner diameter of the through hole fourteenth
  • annular body 18 is formed by two fixedly connected rings 19 and 20.
  • the guide cylinder 15 is provided with an outwardly facing conical bead 21, wherein the conical ring 21 associated with this ring 20 is provided with a correspondingly shaped conical groove 22 whose inner diameter are larger than the outer diameter of the conical bead 21 to a Rescue knocktaufringspalt with open valve ( eg Fig. 7 ) to build.
  • the ring 19 has a larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of the guide cylinder 15.
  • the inner dimensions of the ring 20 relative to those of the ring 19 are such that forms a ring seal 23 receiving shoulder in the connection area, wherein in the direction of gravity further down an additional shoulder is formed in the interior of the ring 20, which carries a further ring seal 24 to the plant at the upper edge of the bottle neck 2a.
  • valve 4 is thanks to the Hubrades 8, which was raised above a sliding surface 9, also in the raised position, which is indicated by an arrow 10 b.
  • the valve body 7 according to arrow 10a in Fig. 6 be lowered.
  • the annular seal 24 sets sealingly against the upper edge of the bottle neck 2a of the bottle.
  • the lifting wheel 8 leaves the supporting sliding surface 9, as in Fig. 7 is shown, the valve body 7 moves due to gravity another amount down, wherein the annular body 18 is connected to the valve body 7 connecting sleeve 17 is compressed by lifting the ring body 18, at the same time, the ring seal 23 detaches from the conical bead 21 and gives it a flow channel for the flowing from the product tank 5 through the tube 6 and the axis 16 product free.
