Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for producing containers filled with liquids and, in particular, for producing plastic containers filled with liquids.
  • kegs For a long time barrels or so-called kegs have been known from the prior art, which are used, for example, as containers for beer or other liquids with a volume of more than 3 liters. Typical areas of application are dispensers. However, such kegs have recently been used as party kegs or the like.
  • the DE 10 2006 026 279 A1 describes a method and an apparatus for producing packaging units or containers. Each container is closed with a Kegfitting and filled with a liquid product. The filling of the container with the liquid product takes place with their fittings upwardly oriented containers, but after establishing a tight connection between the container and the said fitting, ie the closure of the container.
  • the WO 2008/145343 describes a method and an apparatus for producing packaging units or containers. according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • fittings or closures for the containers usually have a so-called fitting line, which extends in the assembled state in the interior of the container.
  • This fitting line is relatively sensitive, as it should contain as little oxygen as possible in beer drinks.
  • the fitting itself is relatively sensitive in the treatment, as due to contamination of the fitting such contamination could also be introduced into the drink.
  • the present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a method for producing such filled plastic large container, which allows a higher degree of purity compared to the prior art. This is inventively achieved by a method according to claim 1 and an apparatus according to claim 10. Advantageous embodiments and further developments are the subject of the dependent claims.
  • the containers are first filled with the liquid and then sealed with a keg fitting with a fitting line.
  • the Kegfitting is thereby supplied by a relative movement between the container and the Kegfitting the container and the Kegfitting is connected to the container, wherein at least before or during the feeding process or the connection process (and in particular during the Zugarvorgangs) takes place a cleaning treatment Kegfittings.
  • Kegfitting Under a relative movement between the Kegfitting and the container is understood that either the Kegfitting is actively moved or the container is moved or both the Kegfitting and the container are moved towards each other.
  • the attachment process of the Kegfittings to the container is thus composed on the one hand from the juxtaposition of the Kegfittings and the container and on the other hand from the subsequent connection of the Kegfittings with the container.
  • the keg fitting is preferably attached to the already filled container in the inventive method. According to the invention it is therefore proposed that a cleaning of the Kegfittings is made before this fed to the filled container and in particular during the actual feeding operation or the connecting process. Preferably, this cleaning of the keg fitting is performed during the feeding operation.
  • container is also used in a simplifying manner instead of the term "plastic container”.
  • Kegfittings Under a cleaning treatment of Kegfittings this treatment is understood, which cleans the Kegfitting of harmful substances for the container.
  • harmful substances may be contaminants in the narrower sense, but also oxygen components which impair the shelf life of the beverage. A removal of these oxygen components is thus understood as purification in the context of the present invention.
  • a region of the kegfitting arranged in a manufactured container within the container is cleaned.
  • a flushing of the above-mentioned fitting line is made in order not to introduce additional oxygen into the container to be closed.
  • the container is first filled with the liquid and only then closed the container with the Kegfitting.
  • the container is aligned with a mouth upwards, i. the liquid is filled from above into the container.
  • the line arranged on the Kegfitting is rinsed by means of a gaseous medium and in particular with CO 2 .
  • a gaseous medium and in particular with CO 2 .
  • oxygen components can be displaced from the line. So no additional oxygen is introduced into the container.
  • liquid is allowed to enter the fitting line.
  • a fitting closure inside ie within the container
  • said fitting closure could be external, e.g. is opened outside the container to flush during the assembly of the sealing gasket with the sealing surface or immediately before the bottom of the closure. It is possible to do this via a foaming process, wherein the foam displaces the air in the closure.
  • This procedure is in particular containers that are wet processed. It would be possible to apply these two described procedures individually or in combination.
  • the cleaning of the Kegfittingsystems and in particular the flushing of the fitting lines takes place during the relative movement between the Kegfitting and the container.
  • time for the production process can be saved at this specific point in time of the rinsing, on the other hand, as explained below, certain areas of the container itself can also be cleaned.
  • Kegfittings or disinfection can be made, in which case, for example, a sterilization by means of a UV lamp, a liquid spraying or rinsing or dipping or gaseous cleaning is possible. Also, sterilization by means of an electron beam (e-beam) could be used.
  • e-beam electron beam
  • the fitting is wholly or partly assembled or assembled in a separate device, in particular before the actual merge operation with the container.
  • the keg fitting is inspected, in particular during the connection process or the relative movement with respect to the container.
  • An inspection can be done on tightness or on suitable geometry.
  • Such inspection methods may be for example the optical inspection by means of cameras, the presence of foam or the like.
  • the method according to the invention can preferably be carried out on a continuously operating rotary machine which carries a plurality of treatment stations for containers arranged side by side on a carousel.
  • the present invention is further directed to a device for producing containers filled with liquid, which containers are closed with a keg fitting with a fitting line and filled with a liquid and wherein a connecting device is provided which connects the containers with the Kegfitting and this connection means the Containers relative to the Kegfitting - in particular in a longitudinal direction of the container - moves.
  • the device has at least one cleaning device which cleans at least one region of the keg fitting at least before or during the relative movement of the keg fitting relative to the container or the connecting operation of the keg fitting to the container, this cleaning device supplying a cleaning medium to the keg fitting.
  • This cleaning unit may preferably be a unit which supplies a gaseous medium, such as CO 2 , to the keg fitting or a fitting line.
  • a gaseous medium such as CO 2
  • other purification units such as the UV or electron beam cleaning units mentioned above, would also be conceivable.
  • the connecting device of the keg fitting preferably predominates relative to the container in a longitudinal direction of the container.
  • the Kegfitting a mouth of the container, in particular from above, supplied to be connected to this mouth can then.
  • the connecting device has a gripping device for gripping the keg fitting.
  • This gripping device can be designed such that the Kegfitting is gripped in an area which is arranged even when assembled containers above an opening of the container.
  • the cleaning device preferably has a supply line, which supplies a cleaning medium to the keg fitting.
  • a supply line which supplies a cleaning medium to the keg fitting.
  • the above-mentioned line of Kegfittings this cleaning medium is supplied.
