Definitions
- the invention relates to a filling machine according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a method according to the preamble of claim 16.
- Filling machines for filling containers such as bottles, cans, etc. are known in different designs.
- filling machines of rotating design are also known, in which a plurality of filling points are formed on the circumference of a rotor driven circumferentially about a vertical machine axis, at which the filling of the containers takes place during the rotational movement of the rotor between a container inlet and a container outlet.
- the object of the invention is to show a filling machine rotating design that allows high accessibility for maintenance and cleaning purposes.
- a filling machine according to claim 1 is formed.
- a method is the subject of claim 16.
- a special feature of the filling machine according to the invention is that it below the filling points or below the movement path on which the provided on the rotating transport element, such as rotor fillers are driven with driven transport element, floor or substantially free of ground formed.
- “soil-free” means, at least below the filling stations, no or substantially no further elements of the filling machine, in particular no planar elements or components, to which falling or dripping liquids adhere and thereby Rather, the space below the filling machine is optimally accessible at least below the filling points and their trajectory for cleaning and maintenance purposes.
- This also gives the possibility of the space below the filling points and the ground there, for example, a hall in which the filling machine is set up to keep clean and germ-free, for example, by automatic or technical cleaning, for example, in the form that this floor is washed away regularly and without interrupting the production or the filling process.
- the filling machine according to the invention is particularly suitable for filling hygienically very difficult media or products or microbiologically sensitive media or products, such. of milk, milk products, milk and / or protein products or microbiologically sensitive drinks.
- the filling machine according to the invention is particularly suitable for filling products in liquid or pasty form.
- Fig. 1 in perspective and in a view from above a trained as a filling device for filling bottles with a liquid product.
- Figure 2 is a schematic, perspective view of the filling machine of Figure 1 in a view from below.
- Fig. 3 in a representation like Fig. 2 shows another embodiment of the filling machine according to the invention.
- the filling machine generally designated 1 in the figures is used to fill containers in the form of bottles 2 with a liquid filling material, for example with hygienically very difficult media or products or with microbiologically sensitive media or products, such as e.g. Milk, milk products, dairy and / or protein products or microbiologically sensitive drinks.
- a liquid filling material for example with hygienically very difficult media or products or with microbiologically sensitive media or products, such as e.g. Milk, milk products, dairy and / or protein products or microbiologically sensitive drinks.
- the filling machine 1 comprises, inter alia, a rotor 3 which is rotatable about a vertical machine axis MA in the direction of the arrow A and which in the illustrated embodiment has the shape of a spoke wheel, with a recess, inter alia.
- On the outer rotor element 4 are distributed at equal angular intervals around the machine axis MA filling stations 7, each with a filling element 8 and a arranged under the filling element container carrier 9, with which the respective bottle to be filled 2 is raised during the filling process against the associated filling element 8.
- the filling machine 1 is carried out in the region of their container inlet 10 and Be perspectiveserausmoors 14 each pre-table, in such a way that is provided for the container inlet 10 and the container outlet 14 respectively only a central base 10.1 and 14.1 for vertical load support, otherwise the space below the container inlet and the container outlet 14 is easily accessible without obstruction by functional elements, not only for repair and maintenance purposes, but especially for cleaning and disinfection purposes.
- the transport stars 11 and 15 are each designed so that in them the bottles 2 are held by suitable means, for example by clamping.
- outer rotor member 4 On the outer rotor member 4 are two for all filling stations 7 and their filling elements 8 common ring boiler 17 and 18 are provided, of which at least one ring bowl is filled with a liquid filling material during operation of the filling machine 1.
- the two ring bowls 17 and 18 are concentric with each other and arranged concentrically to the axis MA, the ring bowl 17 enclosing the ring bowl 18.
- Both ring boilers 17 and 18 are connected to each other via suitable means, for example via webs and are part of the outer annular rotor element 4, together with a below the outer Ringkes- Sels 17 provided ring 19, to which in particular the container carrier 9 and whose guides are mounted and which is connected to the overlying ring boiler 17 in a suitable manner.
- the required high stability is achieved for the rotor 3 despite a reduced mass weight.
- other functional elements are provided, for example, a plurality of control means 20 for controlling the filling elements, etc.
- a special feature of the filling machine 1 is that the rotor 3 with its inner, scar-like rotor element 5 with a central storage, i. is rotatably mounted on a central guide and / or storage column 21 about the vertical machine axis MA, with a bearing assembly using a plurality of bearings (radial bearings and thrust bearings), whose diameter is substantially smaller than the outer diameter of the rotor 3.
- a central storage of the Rotor 3 on the guiding and / or storage column 21 is the usual and very expensive ball slewing compound for storage of the rotor 3 avoided in filling machines rotating design.
- the central bearing of the rotor 3 on the guiding and / or bearing column 21 results in substantial advantages in terms of cleaning and hygiene, since, except for the space occupied by the guiding and / or bearing column 21, the entire space below the rotor 3 is at least largely free accessible, not only for repair and maintenance, but also for cleaning purposes.
- the guide and / or storage column 21 is available with a conically widening column foot 22 on the ground and is there to align the filling machine 1 with a plurality of height-adjustable feet 23.
- substantially triangular support frame 24 which is arranged with its arranged in a common horizontal or substantially horizontal plane rod-like frame members or struts 24.1, the supports 10.1 and 14.1 and thus also the container inlet 10 and the container outlet 14 with the guide and / storage column 21 connects.
- the guiding and / or bearing column 21 protrudes with a column section 25 over the scar-like rotor element 5 or over the central bearing of the rotor 3.
- a circular disk-shaped plate 26 is attached, which is part of the outer support and support frame 27.
- the latter consists of several, ie in the illustrated embodiment of six each made of a tubular profile made of stainless steel bow-shaped frame members 28, in each case with a shorter bracket section 28.1, a longer bracket section 28.2 and these yoke sections connecting yoke sections 28.3.
- the frame members 28 are provided at uniform angular intervals about the machine axis MA and with their yoke portions 28.1, 28.2 and the yoke portion 28.3 lying in a plane radially to the machine axis MA such that each bracket member 28, the rotor 3 and the outer rotor element 4 engages over at a distance, the bracket sections 28.1 brought from above to the plate 26 and connected with their free ends in a suitable manner, such as welding to the top of this plate, while the bracket sections 28.2 relative to the machine axis MA radially outboard with its free end stand on height-adjustable feet 29 on the ground or surface.
- ring segments 30 which also made of tubular profile made of stainless steel and complement each other to a machine axis MA concentric enclosing ring structure, the individual frame members 28 are connected to the bracket sections 28.1 together.
- the ring segments 30 are arranged in a plane which corresponds approximately to the level of the top of the ring bowls 17 and 18.
- a significant advantage of the filling machine 1 is that the functional elements of this filling machine 1, but in particular also the space below the rotor and below the container inlet 10 and the container outlet 14, are at least largely freely accessible and, in particular, below the filling points 7 at most, with the exception of the struts 24.1 of the supporting and connecting frame 24, no further components are arranged. This results in optimum accessibility for cleaning and / or maintenance purposes. Especially the bottom below the filling machine thus very easy to clean, even technically or automatically, ie the floor can be washed away, for example regularly and without interrupting the production.
- FIG. 3 shows a filling machine 1a, which differs from the filling machine 1 essentially only in that the central support of the rotor 3 and the guiding and / or storage column 21 and thus the entire construction of the filling machine 1a on the Holding and supporting frame 27 is suspended, ie the central guide and / or storage column 21 is not supported on the ground. Since the column foot 22 is missing in this embodiment, the support and connection frame 24 is not provided, but instead of this frame are struts 23 present that connect the feet 10.1 and 14.1 each with each other and with adjacent bracket sections 28.2.
- the filling machine 1 or 1a is used to fill bottles 2 with a liquid product.
- the filling machine can also be used for filling containers with other products, for example with pasty or creamy products.
