- each closing station 11 consists of a closing tool 12 with which the respective closure 3 is screwed onto the bottle 2 held with its bottle mouth below the closing tool 12 on a container carrier 13 and completely accommodated in the sterile room 5.
- the respective closing tool 12 is designed as a screw capper and is u.a. from a e.g. electromotive drive 14, from a with its axis parallel to the machine axis MA oriented spindle 15 which is drivingly connected at its upper end to the drive 14 and the motor shaft of this drive, as well as from an axially sprung at the lower end capper head 16, with the at circulating rotor 4, the respective closure 3 is removed at a closure transfer position, not shown, then placed by lifting the respective bottle 2 against the capper head 16 on the bottle mouth and then on the driven by the drive 14 via the spindle 15 capper 16 on the relevant bottle 2 is screwed, as is known in the art.
- a e.g. electromotive drive 14 from a with its axis parallel to the machine axis MA oriented spindle 15 which is drivingly connected at its upper end to the drive 14 and the motor shaft of this drive, as well as from an axially sprung at the lower end capper head 16, with the at circulating rot
- a particular problem is in the tight passage through the spindle 15 through the wall 6. This is for each closing station 11 at the top of the wall.
- 6 a generally designated 20 in the figures hydraulic seal or siphon seal provided. This consists inter alia of a formed as a molded body sealing member 21 made of a suitable material, for example, from Me- tall. As is clearly shown in particular in FIG.
- the sealing element 21 comprises a cup-shaped section 22 which is open at the top and has two concentric cylindrical wall sections 22.1 and 22.2 in the illustrated embodiment which form an annular channel 23 between them. is the sealing space of the siphon 20 and is closed at the bottom of the portion 22 and the molding 21 and at the top of the portion 22 and the molding 21 is open.
- the inner wall section 22.1 encloses an opening 24, through which the spindle 15 is passed through the sealing element 21 or the siphon seal 20. Furthermore, the inner wall section 22.1 has a reduced height compared to the outer wall section 22.2.
- the sealing element 21 is further formed with an integrally formed on the portion 22 section or gutter segment 25 which is open at the top of the shaped body 21 and limited by two wall sections 27 and 28 and a bottom 29.
- the section 25 or its wall sections 27 and 28 are arcuately curved, in such a way that the sections 25 of the sealing stations 11 adjoining each other in the circumferential direction of the rotor 4 and the hydraulic seals 20 of these stations form a section 25 or segments together putting the machine axis MA concentrically enclosing and open at the top ring channel 26, which surrounds the sections 22 and thus the guided through the openings 24 of these sections spindles 15 outside with respect to the machine axis.
- the height of the wall portions 27 and 28 in the axial direction perpendicular to the bottom 29 and thus in the installed state in the axial direction parallel to the machine axis MA for example, equal to the corresponding height of the outer wall portion 22.2.
- the channel segment 26 is connected via an opening 30 with the annular channel 23 in connection.
- the opening 30 is located in the region of the bottom 29 of the trough segment 25 that is level with or at the same level as the bottom of the annular channel 23.
- each hydraulic seal 20 is fastened to the upper side of the wall 6 in the region of an opening 31 provided in this wall, in such a way that the opening 24 is congruent with the opening 31 and the annular channel 23 and the channel segment 25 are each open to the wall 6 facing away from the top.
- the housing 17 is connected to a housing 19 having the lower portion 17.1 with the outer wall portion 22.2 at the top of this wall portion tightly connected.
- each hydraulic seal 20 is further formed as a molded cup- or bell-shaped sealing element 32, which, as is shown in detail in Figure 5 in detail, from an annular portion 33 which in the mounted state on the spindle 15 this encompassing tightly fastened, and consists of a circular cylindrical portion 34 which surrounds the axis of the spindle 17 concentric and at a radial distance in the mounted state and merges at its upper end in the annular portion 33.
- the section 34 is designed so that it extends in the assembled state of the respective hydraulic seal 20 in the annular channel 23 of the sealing member 21, in such a way that the circular cylindrical inner surface and the likewise circular cylindrical outer surface of the portion 34 each of the inner surface of the wall sections 22.1 and 22.2 and the lower free end of the portion 34 is spaced from the bottom of the annular channel 23.
- Each hydraulic seal 20 further comprises a plurality of mechanical sealing elements, in the illustrated embodiment, a sealing ring 35, which seals the transition between the housing portion 17.3 and the o- beren edge of the wall portion 22.2, a sealing ring 36, the gap between the portion 33 and the outer surface of the spindle 17 seals, as well as an example designed with at least one wiper lip annular sealing member 37 between the portion 33 of the rotating with the spindle 17 seal member molding 32 and the inner surface of the outer wall 22.2 in the upper region of this wall. Further seals, not shown, are provided between the individual adjoining groove segments 25 so as to create a liquid-tight groove 26 consisting of these groove segments 25.
- this level N is slightly below the level of the upper edge of the inner wall portion 22.1.
- seals 20 serve to seal the spins 15 rotating about their spindle axes.
- seals 20 or the bushings having them may also be designed for axial and / or radial movement of the spindle 15 or other functional element of a closing station, in particular with a corresponding adaptation of the axial dimensions of the sealing elements 21 and 32, i. in particular the height of the wall sections 22.1, 22.2, 27, 28 and, in particular, by corresponding adaptation of the axial dimension of the circular cylinder-shaped section 34.
- the hydraulic seal 20 ensures an absolutely dense and sterile performing of the spindle 15 through the wall 6, and in particular also by the fact that by the recorded in the annular channel 23 liquid sealing and / or sterilization medium, a barrier is formed, which extends around the entire, immersed in this sealing and / or sterilizing medium section 34. With the exception of the voltage applied to the inner surface of the wall portion 22.1 sealing element 37, the seal without contact between see see the sealing elements 21 and 32nd
- seal or implementation according to the invention is of course not only suitable for use in capping machines, but also for use in other container treatment machines in which, for example, a rotating and / or axially and / or radially movable functional element of the environment or a non-sterile space extends into a sterile room from above with a section.
