Definitions
- the invention relates to a capper specified in the preamble of claim 1.
- a generic capper is from the US 3 707 822 A known.
- WO 2006/087088 A shown capper are formed in practice so that for height adjustment of the upper part of a separate drive motor is mounted, for example, a geared motor, which adjusts the upper part via a spindle and determines the desired height of the upper part using a Balluff probe.
- the gear motor is arranged in the region of the upper part, or below a table top, from which the adjusting spindle extends, for example, by a main bearing shaft upwards.
- the height adjustment range is impractically limited, and an indirect height adjustment via a probe is required. The height adjustment can not be automated and requires considerable space.
- the known height adjustment can be difficult to implement when working media such as liquids, electric power and compressed air are used in the upper part. Electric power is needed via control lines for driving servomotors, while pneumatic controls for gripper heads and the like are needed. In modern cappers with a servo motor as a capper drive motor eliminates lower space, so that a bottom drive motor for height adjustment with the required for the spindle passage through a main bearing shaft are not possible.
- the invention has for its object to provide a capper of the type mentioned, which is structurally simplified, especially when using the servo motor technology and even allows automated height adjustment of the upper part.
- the remote-controlled clutch system makes it possible in the switching position for the drive function to drive all components of the closer to be driven substantially synchronously.
- the clutch system switched into the switching position for the height adjustment function allows the height adjustment make of the upper part by means of the capper drive motor, without simultaneously driving navajubalde components in the upper part.
- Advantages of this system include a relatively large height adjustment range and the shielded housing of the entire drive components, including for the height adjustment, so that neither cleaning media nor other external influences lead to damage or contamination inside the capper. This type of encapsulation even makes it possible to intensively clean the capper at previously unauthorized locations.
- the height adjustment can be completely automated, eg depending on grade parameters.
- a high adjustment accuracy can be achieved by means of the capper drive motor, for example, depending on the design of about ⁇ 0.3 mm. Since by means of the capper drive motor, and in particular in automated height adjustment, the height adjustment of the upper part is very precise feasible, it may be possible to omit a previously required to adjust the altitude probe.
- the capstan drive motor is a geared servomotor disposed in a bottom supporting table, i. at a central location of the capper, and so that it is removed from outside influences or cleaning media.
- the geared servomotor allows precise and positionally accurate control of rotational motions, and generates as needed, e.g. a high torque or very small rotary increments.
- the upper part is height-adjustable with the height adjustment function turned on until the rotational decoupling from the capper drive motor with respect to the upper part.
- This additional function of a total decoupling of the upper part may be desirable in particular if in a plant several cappers are present, which are only cyclically active in their upper part, while passive upper part only their lower part must be driven to container transport. This additional function can be realized without significant additional effort, and can go hand in hand with a very large height adjustment range of the upper part.
- the hollow shaft is guided at least axially displaceable in an outer shaft connected to the lower part or container carrier.
- the outer shaft can drive the rotating components of the upper part with switched drive function.
- a toothed coupling which can be disengaged and adjusted by linear adjustment of the hollow splined shaft is provided between the hollow splined shaft and the outer tube, via which the splined shaft can be selectively brought into rotary engagement with the outer tube or decoupled from the outer tube.
- the rotary connection to at least some components in the upper part is interrupted, while the threaded spindle is still in rotary connection with the capstan drive motor, so that the rotational movement of the threaded spindle screws the hollow shaft, which adjusts the upper part in the vertical direction. If, on the other hand, the toothed coupling is engaged, then the outer shaft connected to the container carrier and the threaded spindle as well as the height-adjustable hollow shaft are rotated together without screwing the threaded spindle in the hollow shaft (drive function).
- the toothed coupling is biased by spring force to the engagement position, preferably provided by between the hollow shaft and a pivot bearing of the outer tube springs.
- the springs can be designed so that the toothed coupling remains reliably engaged during operation of the capper with switched drive function.
- the gear coupling is disengaged pneumatically.
- a remote actuatable actuator such as a Pneumatic cylinders are made, which produces a linear stroke for the hollow spline shaft.
- an actuating shaft displaceable by the pneumatic cylinder and displaceably arranged in the drive shaft is used in order to transmit the actuating stroke from the outside to the internal hollow splined shaft.
- any linear actuators such as linear servomotors, electromagnets, etc. can be used.
- This locking coupling is, preferably, equipped with latching projections on the actuating shaft which can be inserted in star-shaped fashion through windows in the drive shaft into engagement recesses of the hollow splined shaft.
- the Rastmit supportive can be retracted by a relative partial rotation of the actuating shaft relative to the then stationary drive shaft, preferably under spring force to separate the actuating shaft and the drive shaft from each other, and are by a corresponding return or further rotational movement again from the windows of the drive shaft in the engagement recesses pushed.
- a selectively actuated, preferably mechanical, pneumatic or magnetic, parking brake is provided for the rotationally driven components of the upper part or the upper part.
- the parking brake between a clamping disc of the upper part and a rotatably supported cover plate of the upper part is arranged.
- the parking brake is engaged for height adjustment until the height adjustment is completed.
- the parking brake is also held engaged and engaged when the upper is fully rotationally coupled relative to the capper drive motor.
- the engaged parking brake absorbs the reaction torque, which is formed for example during the rotation of the threaded spindle by means of the capper drive motor in the height-adjustable hollow shaft, and also to ensure an accurate rotational positioning of the then passive upper part for the renewed use.
- an optionally operable, preferably pneumatic, and in the dissolved state along the torque arm movable clamping device is provided between the upper part and a closer, parallel to the capper torque arm, with, preferably, the upper part is fixed in a selected height adjustment, and, preferably, a non-rotatably supported during operation of the capper lid disc with attached thereto Verschplierkurve on the torque arm in the direction of rotation can be fixed. Since the clamping device along the torque arm is movable, and while the cover plate and the capper curve is supported, the clamping device is optionally not engaged in a height adjustment, so that the upper part remains adjustable, but does not rotate.
- the clamping device eg pneumatically, can be tightened to hold the set height position of the top part.
- This guided clamping device also transmits the reaction force received by the parking brake to the torque arm when the parking brake is located on the cover disk.
- the drive shaft passes through the capper drive motor.
- the actuating shaft for the clutch system exits from the free drive shaft end and is in operative connection with the pneumatic cylinder placed there.
- a locking washer for height inquiry of the hollow splined shaft or the toothed coupling and thus indirectly also the upper part may be arranged. This provides information about automated height adjustment that is processed and stored by an appropriately designed controller.
- detectors and / or sensors can be placed here, as well as possibly inside the coupling system.
- a locking pin for the detent coupling and initiators are placed in a preferably encapsulated and thus easily cleaned, between the free drive shaft end and the pneumatic cylinder for gear coupling monitoring and, if necessary, for height adjustment ,
- This area of the capper can thus be used profitably, for example, to automatically perform height adjustments of the upper part, thereby obtaining accurate information about the set height position or the extent of the height adjustment and the proper functioning of the coupling system.
- An expedient embodiment in which, for example, the upper part can even be rotationally coupled relative to the capper drive motor by a very large height adjustment is designed so that the upper part is rotatably connected at least to the outer shaft via a plurality of circumferentially distributed, as parallel to the capper axis displaceable anti-rotation.

- After disengaging the toothed coupling Z can for height adjustment of the capper drive motor M can be restarted to set the desired height of the top O or even to totally isolate the top O. In this case, a relatively large height adjustment range can be used, wherein no additional drive motor is used for height adjustment.
- the entire drive technology and the internal components are shielded from cleaning media and other external influences, as a result of which the capper V can also be intensively cleaned at hitherto impermissible locations.
- the height adjustment is, preferably, completely automated, for example, taking into account variety parameters executable, via a not shown control of the closer V. It can, for example, achieve a height adjustment of about 250 mm, the adjustment accuracy thanks to the precision of the transmission servo motor depending on the design is about ⁇ 0.2 mm. Here also the spindle pitch is of influence.
- the upper part O can be completely coupled by the capper drive motor M in order to be able to use only the transport function of the container carrier 7.
- capper works in a clean room environment, because then no operator needs to enter the clean room to make a height adjustment. Thanks to the large height adjustment range, all known container sizes can be driven. Furthermore, it is possible to equip all possible types of capper (ALU, SV, KK, NK, ASK, etc.) and all capper sizes (TK) with this height adjustment.
