Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for controlling vascular occlusions with a control device.
  • a method for testing sealed containers is known from DE 198 34 218 A1 known.
  • the shutter blanks are tested by means of a test device comprising a magnetic coil whose axis is perpendicular to the plane of the shutter blank.
  • a disadvantage of such a block machine is that if a problem occurs with a single machine, it may be necessary to stop the entire plant. This reduces the efficiency of the entire plant and can lead to the loss of raw material if a treatment process can not be stopped.
  • a block machine may include a filler and a capper.
  • vascular occlusions are used to airtight vessels after filling. Usually about 1% to 2% of the vessel occlusions are defective or faulty.
  • Defective vascular occlusions can cause sealing problems.
  • a device is used which identifies faulty vascular occlusions and is removed from the process flow by means of a discharging device.
  • Such a device and a corresponding method are for example from the US 2009/0107896 known.
  • a device for sorting out defective closures is also known from US 3,746,163 known.
  • the vascular occlusions are often pulled apart or singulated in front of the control device. As a result, the vessel closures are guided individually and separated from one another on the control device.
  • the method according to the invention for controlling vascular occlusions with a control device comprises the steps of advancing the vascular occlusions on the control device by means of a delivery medium without separating the vascular occlusions in front of the control device, and checking the vascular occlusions with the control device.
  • the method can be simplified over the prior art.
  • the checking of the vascular occlusions can be carried out in particular inline. In other words, no separating elements or baffles for separating the closures are necessary. In particular, without isolation, it may mean that the vascular occlusions are not spaced or separated from each other in addition or for purposes of control.
  • the vascular occlusions may in particular be bottle closures.
  • the vascular occlusions may comprise a plastic and / or metal.
  • the vascular occlusions may be screw caps, crown caps, flat caps or sports caps.

  • the vascular occlusions can be guided past the control device on the conveyed medium, in particular directly or directly adjoining one another.
  • the vascular occlusions can be guided past the dynamic pressure on the control device.
  • the dynamic pressure referred to is the pressure on a vessel closure by one or more vessel closures following in the conveying direction.
  • the vascular occlusions can be guided horizontally aligned past the control device.
  • the conveying medium can be arranged horizontally and the vessel closures can be guided horizontally past the control device.
  • the vascular occlusions may be guided laterally during the control.
  • a guide element can be provided for laterally guiding the vessel closures.
  • the vascular occlusions can be guided past the control device such that the vascular occlusions touch directly or directly or the distance between two vascular occlusions is much smaller than the radius of a vascular occlusion, in particular wherein the distance between two vascular occlusions is less than or equal to 1/2, 1 / 3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8, 1/9, 1/10, 1/50 or 1/100 of the radius of a vascular occlusion.
  • the control device may in particular be an inspection device.
  • the control device may comprise one or more optoelectronic sensors.
  • the control device comprises a camera, wherein the step of checking comprises generating a, in particular digital, image of a vascular occlusion.
  • the camera can be a CCD camera.
  • the control device may also include a lighting element for illuminating the vascular occlusions or the vascular occlusion to be controlled.
  • the control device can also comprise an evaluation element, in particular a computer, wherein the step of checking comprises evaluating the image of the vessel closure with the evaluation element. This allows the inspection or inspection of the vascular occlusions to be fully automated.
  • the evaluation element can evaluate or analyze optical and / or geometric properties of a vessel closure.
  • the optical properties can include, for example, the color and / or reflectivity of the vessel closure.
