Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for capping containers.
- each closure device comprises a closure head carried by a support member in the form of a bracket having a vertical portion through a cover and connected to an operating member disposed under the cover.
- the closure head is thus mounted movably in a vertical movement between a high position and a low position in line with a container support.
- a complete capping cycle includes a lifting of the capping head just before the exit of a container so as not to interfere with the outlet of the container, a lowering of the capping head to remove a cork or if necessary a seal, a lifting of the closure head so as not to interfere with the entrance of the containers, and a lowering of the closure head during the step of fixing the stopper or lid on the container.
- the means for implementing the closure heads that is to say the drive mechanisms capping heads and the mechanisms for controlling the movements of the closure heads.
- An object of the invention is to provide a device for capping containers that minimizes the risk of pollution.
- the invention proposes a container closure device comprising a closure head carried by a support member in the form of a bracket having a vertical portion passing through a cover and connected to an operating member disposed under the cover, the closure head being connected to a horizontal branch of the bracket to be movable in a vertical movement between a high position and a low position above and in line with a container support, the closure head being connected to means for its implementation, wherein the support member is hollow and the implementation means of the closure head are enclosed in the portion of the support member which extends above the cover
- the pollution that can be generated by the means of implementation of the closure head remains enclosed within the portion of the support member above the lid, and under the lid so that it presents no risk of penetration into the containers
- the support member of the closure head comprises a support tube mounted to slide relative to a guide member on an interface zone in which the support tube and the guide member are in a variable recovery position, the interface area extending at a lower level than a lower end of the capping head in the lower position of the capping head.
- the closure head is equipped with means for gripping a plug rotated by a rotation drive mechanism extending inside the support member and comprising a driving rod connected to a drive motor arranged under the cover.
- FIG. capping is a schematic sectional view of a device of FIG. capping according to the invention by a vertical plane passing through a plane of symmetry of the support member.
- the closure device is described in relation to a rotary loading carousel having a series of capping stations of which only one has been shown in the figure.
- the installation comprises a rotary platform 1, carrying a series of closure devices 2, each associated with a container support member 3, here a clamp for holding the containers 4 by the neck.
- each closure station comprises an anti-rotation member 5 arranged relative to the containers to prevent them from rotating on themselves when screwing a plug 6 by the head 7 .
- the closure head 7 is also in a manner known per se carried by a support member in the form of a bracket having a vertical portion 10 passing through a cover 13 and connected to an operating member disposed under the cover, the capping head being connected to a horizontal branch of the bracket to be movable in a vertical movement between a high position and a low position above and directly above the container support 3.
- the capping head has jaws 8 which are recalled to an open position by unrepresented elastic members and whose closure is provided by a control member 9 mounted movably between a portion of the jaws.
- the support member is hollow and comprises a support tube 10 which extends vertically guided by a guide tube 11 on the one hand and by a guide ring 12 carried by the support arm of the anti -rotation 5.
- the guide tube 11 is sealingly attached to the cover 13 secured to a central mast 14 fixed to the rotary platform 1.
- the cover 13 extends under the capping head 7 and is associated along its outer edge with a partition member 15 carried by the frame of the machine.
- a seal 16 provides a seal between the cover 13 and the partition member 15.
- the support tube 10 passes through the cover 13 and the lower end of the support tube 10 is fixed to an operating member comprising an operating arm 17 mounted for slide on a vertical column 18 carried by the platform.
- the position of the operating arm 17 is determined by a roller 42 cooperating in a manner known per se with unrepresented cams arranged at particular points of the circular path of the platform 1 so as to determine in a precise manner the position of the support tube 10.
- the bearing force of the closure head on the container is further determined by a jack 19 which acts on the arm 17.
- the guide tube 11 surrounds the support tube 10 and the latter vs
- the upper end of the tube 11 remains constantly covered by the skirt 20 so that the particles that could be generated by the friction of the support tube 10 inside the guide tube 11 can not escape upwards but are instead pushed back to the bottom under the cover 13 so that they can not reach the container.
- the support tube 10 is connected to a housing 22 which extends horizontally and forms with the support tube 10 a support member in the form of a bracket.
- the housing 22 forms a horizontal branch of this support member.
- This horizontal branch carries the capping head 7 which extends vertically under the horizontal branch 22.
- the rotational drive of the closure head 7 is achieved by means of a hollow shaft 23 which extends inside the support tube 10 coaxially with it.
- the hollow shaft 23 has a grooved portion which passes through a conical pinion 24 cooperating with a bevel gear 25 carried by the drive shaft of a motor 26 fixed under the platform 1.
- the hollow shaft 23 At its upper end which extends in the housing 22, the hollow shaft 23 carries a pinion 27 cooperating with an intermediate gear 28 meshing with a pinion 29 which is associated with a hollow shaft 30 whose lower end carries the closure head 7.
- the rotational movement is transmitted to the hollow shaft 30 which thus puts the closure head 7 in rotation.
- the only movable piece plumb with and above the capping head 7 is the hollow shaft 30 whose position considerably minimizes the risk of pollution.
- the housing 22 is equipped with an O-ring 41 surrounding the hollow shaft 30 at its outlet from the housing 22.
- the control member 9 of the jaws of the capping head 7 is connected to a control rod 31 which extends inside the hollow rotary drive shaft 30.
- the control rod 31 is rotated at the same time as the hollow shaft 30.
- the rod control 31 has a platinum 32 on which and disposed a thrust bearing 33 allowing the support of one end of a rocker arm 34 mounted inside the housing 22.
- the opposite end of the rocker arm 34 bears in the same way on a stop -
- the 35 carried by a plate 36 fixed to the upper end of a control rod 37 whose lower end is supported by a thrust bearing 38 on a control cylinder 39.
- the control rods 31 and 37 can therefore be operated during rotation of the closure head 7.
- closure head 7 may be replaced by a heat sealing head.
- the support tube 10 and the housing 22 contain the power supply of the heat sealing head and, if appropriate, a pneumatic conduit for ensuring a sampling of the caps to heat seal.
- control rod 37 extending inside the hollow drive shaft 23
- the control rod 37 can be mounted parallel to the control shaft 23 at the same time. Inside the support tube 10. In this case the control rod is not rotated during the rotation of the drive shaft 23 and the thrust ball bearings 35 and 38 can be deleted.
- the set of gears 27, 28, 29 may be replaced by a toothed belt transmission mechanism or the like.
