Definitions
- the present invention relates to an operating method of a filling plant for filling containers and a device for filling liquids in containers.
- Such devices are known from the prior art for a long time Usually, these devices have a plurality of filling devices with filling valves, which fill a liquid, such as a beverage in containers. It is necessary in these devices to clean them regularly.
- so-called CIP cleaning methods cleaning in place
- a cleaning liquid such as, for example, an alkali or an acid.
- a control of the cleaning process is possible, for example, on the amount of returning to a connected CIP system cleaning agent, but so far only the total amount of the individual cleaning media in the return of the CIP system has been measured and monitored in the prior art.
- the EP 062 613 B1 describes a method for cleaning bottling plants. In this case, the amount of cleaning agent flowing through each filling head is determined during a cleaning process.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object to improve rinsing process for such bottling plants, which fill carbonated drinks. It should be noted, however, that the method according to the invention and the device according to the invention can also be used for conventional filling systems.
- the filling installation has a plurality of filling devices which fill the containers with the liquid. It is the containers - In particular at least temporarily during the filling process - supplied with at least one gas exchange device via a first and a second line connection, a gas or discharged from the container, a gas.
- the first line connection and the second line connection differ at least in sections, and a flushing mode is furthermore provided, in which the filling devices and the line connections at least partially rinsed with a rinsing medium.
- the rinsing medium is selected according to the rinsing process, for example lye and / or acid followed by a water rinse in a cleaning process or hot water, saturated steam or disinfectant solution such as hydrogen peroxide solution, peracetic acid solution or ozone-containing water in a disinfection and / or sterilization step.
- At least one characteristic value for the quantity of the flushing medium passing through the first line connection and that passing through the second line connection is determined separately for these line connections.
- the value may be a quantitative or volumetric amount or even the information that a predetermined quantity limit value has been exceeded or undershot.
- a gas exchange device is understood to mean a device which is in fluid communication with the respective filling elements or the container to be filled, and which is preferably capable of pressurizing the container with a gas and / or removing a gas from the container.
- the gas exchange device on a valve block or a plurality of advantageously controllable valves.
- the rinsing medium flows at least in sections in a direction through the filling devices, which is opposite to the flow direction of the liquid to be filled into the containers.
- the supply of the gas into the containers and / or the discharge of the gas from the containers is controlled by at least one valve device.
- a valve block is provided with a plurality of valves, with particular preference these valves are also used to a separate determination perform the passing through the first line connection and the passing through the second line connection flushing medium.
- valve devices at least two valve devices and particularly preferably at least three valve devices are provided for the same or different gases. More specifically, the supply and discharge of the gas is controlled by a plurality of valve devices, and these valve devices are switched at least partially offset in time during the rinsing process. In particular, the separate determination of the flushing medium flowing through the individual line connections to which the valves are assigned is also possible by means of this time-shifted switching.
- the liquid to be filled is a carbonated beverage or a carbonated beverage.
- the determination of the flushing medium advantageously also takes place for individual filling devices, that is to say separately for individual filling elements.
- Each filling device is associated with a flow measuring device in order to achieve this separate determination. It is thus possible that with certain types of fillers the flow rate is measured and, if necessary, added depending on the filling organ. Furthermore, it would be possible to divide the individual sections of the cleaning into different temporal sectors and to monitor for one or more flow limit values and thus to assess the cleaning quality even without a quantity measurement. In this case, therefore, not the absolute measurement of the flushing medium is measured, but merely compared whether the detected amount exceeds a certain limit. Nevertheless, at least one characterizing characteristic is also determined here. Most preferably, this is the determination of whether a flow rate> 0, i. whether any flow through a first and / or second line connection has taken place. This can be detected very quickly after the start of the cleaning and the cleaning process stopped for repair purposes. This creates only a minimum of production hours lost.
- the flow of a medium has ended (which can be determined, for example, by a coupling signal from the CIP system) to generate a table with the flow values of ten or more filling devices or of a certain number of gas lines and to determine the corresponding filling devices or line connections in parallel.
- the quality of the cleaning can be determined independently of media and on the other hand, it is also conceivable that in the foreseeable future a suitable sensor technology determines the quality of the cleaning and optimized in a central computer or decentralized and automatic cleaning time and / or manually Based on the data read out.
- the determination of the amount of flushing agent passing through the first line connection and through the second line connection is made with the same measuring device.
- This flow measuring device is provided in the liquid supply line through which the beverage to be filled is conveyed. During the flushing operation, the flushing medium flows in the reverse direction through this flow measuring device, and in this way it is possible to determine both the total filling device and the amount of cleaning agent that has passed through it and, as mentioned above, the individual gas supply channels. Likewise, the purely qualitative proof is possible, if any flow has taken place.
- the amounts of flushing agent passing through the different line sections are summed. This summation also makes it possible to ascertain whether all line sections have been cleaned. Thus, it would be possible to check in a first step, whether the total amount is sufficient for all line sections and in a further step, if this should not be the case, determine which line section was not or insufficiently applied with detergent.
- the present invention is further directed to a device for filling liquids in containers, which has a plurality of filling devices which introduce the liquid into the containers and wherein at least one GäsS worn and in particular per filling device at least one gas exchange device is provided, which - especially at least temporarily during the filling process - is in gas communication with the containers via at least two at least partially separated line connections in order to fill the containers with at least one gaseous medium and / or to remove a gaseous medium from the containers.
- the gas exchange device has at least two valves for controlling the gas exchange with the containers and furthermore a rinsing device is provided, which rinses the filling devices and the line connections temporarily with a rinsing medium.
- a flow measuring device is provided which determines the amount of flushing medium passing through a filling device.
- the gas exchange device comprises a valve block which contains both the valves and the line sections or parts of the line sections.
- said control device controls the valves in a targeted manner and with a time delay, in order to allow in this way a time-delayed entry of the flushing medium into the different line connections and optionally also the valves themselves.
- the flow measuring device for each of these line connections separately determine the respective flow rate or output a characteristic that is characteristic of this amount.
- this characteristic value can also be a signal which indicates the exceeding or undershooting of a specific limit value.
- the line connections can be, for example, a so-called return gas channel which leads air from the container back into the valve block or else a so-called biasing channel, which pressurizes the container with compressed air before or during the rinsing process.
- Each filling device is associated with a flow measuring device.
- This flow measuring device is used in the working operation to quantify the medium to be filled, that is, for example, the beverage in quantity. But even in the flushing process, this flow measuring device is used to determine the flushing medium also in terms of quantity. Thus, only one flow meter is provided per filling device, which, as mentioned above, determined by appropriately skillful wiring of the valves and the amount of flushing medium which passes through the individual line connections.
- the flow measuring device allows a quantitative determination of the liquid passing through it in both directions of flow.
- the device has a memory device in order to store or determine flow rates of flushing agent measured for the individual filling devices.
- the storage device can store the respective amount of rinsing agent that is separated for the individual line connections.
- the data stored in the memory device for example, can be automatically evaluated and displayed, for example in tabular form on an operating and / or output terminal and retrieved by a user.
- a filling device is at all suitable for filling a specific liquid.
- Problems can, for example, prepare a highly foaming product, in the filling of which by foaming very often product residues are dragged into the line connections and the valves.
- the product is carbonated and also contains particles such as fruit pulp or fruit fibers, these particles can be torn with the foam in the gas lines and valves and settle there. Often these particles are even larger in diameter than the individual valve bores, so that a passage through a valve by these particles is impossible and the valves are completely added. From this, it is also important to understand that the valves or filling devices are flushed backwards so that fixed particles are removed in the same way that they came to the valve.
- the evaluation of the detected flow values during the cleaning may result in a change in the flushing behavior in comparison to the previous harvest values be recognized. If the trend of the flow rates after conversion to a new product is significantly different from the filling of previous products, this can either be detected by the operator of the filling system or preferably in the data memory of the control device of the filling system, the flow rates during cleaning with information about the prior to cleaning linked bottled product.
- an automatic evaluation and presentation can be made as to whether the cleaning quality has deteriorated after filling a particular product and a message, for example, issued on an operator terminal. Now it can be decided whether the product should continue to be run on the filling line or not.
- the described methods are eminently suitable for determining a plant-specific hygienic condition of the individual filling elements in the context of a filling plant validation, in particular a filling plant revalidation
- FIGS. 1a and 1b show roughly schematic representations of a system for filling containers.
- a reservoir 34 is provided, such as a ring bowl, which contains the product to be filled.
- This supplies via a product supply line 36 a filling device 4.
- a plurality of such product supply lines and filling devices are arranged in a uniformly spaced distance on a support carousel (not shown).
- a flow meter 22 determines both during normal work operation the amount of liquid which is filled via the respective filling device 4 - one speaks of volumetric filling - and in the context of the rinsing process, the amount of flushing agent in the reverse direction.
- the individual filling devices 4 are separately controllable.
- the reference numeral 10 refers to a (only schematically illustrated) container. It is located in the filling operation in the pressed-on to the filling device 4 state, so that the gas valves 4a, 4b are in fluid communication with the interior of the container.
- the containers 10 are fed to the carrier carousel via (not shown) supply and discharge devices or removed. In the operating state of cleaning, no containers 10 are arranged on the filling devices. In this state, the filling device is closed with a so-called CIP cap.
- Fig. 2 shows a possible time course of the individual flushes, for example, over a revolution of a carrier carousel.
- a plurality of filling devices is arranged, for example, on a carrier carousel and the rinsing of the individual filling devices is carried out in different temporal sections I-IV.
- the flushing operations can be assigned to individual filling devices in time or in space.
- a different gas valve is opened and correspondingly flushed through in the different sections I-IV, as in the section lying in front of it. That is, for example, in a section I, a first gas valve 4a is opened and purged with the gas valve 4b closed. In section II, the first gas valve 4a is closed and the second gas valve 4b is opened and rinsed.
- Fig. 3 shows a block diagram-like representation of a system according to the invention for filling containers 10.
- the solid lines indicate media lines, the dashed lines pneumatic lines and dash-dotted lines electrical connecting lines.
- the reference numeral 4 again refers in its entirety to the filling device for filling the (in Fig. 3 not shown) containers 10.
- the reference numeral 5 denotes a so-called rinsing cap, which closes the filling valve 40 during the rinsing process and in this way allows a short circuit of the rinsing agent.
- the product to be filled is first fed via a supply line 7 and a valve 54 to a medium rotary distributor 38. Starting from this medium rotary distributor 38, the product passes via a product line 9 into a reservoir such as a ring bowl 34. Starting from this ring bowl 34, the product is conducted via the continuation of the product line 36 to the filling device 4.
- a flow meter 22 determines the amount of the filled medium. This flow meter 22 is connected to a controller 62 via an electrical connection line 11.
- the reference numeral 8 designates in its entirety a rinsing device for rinsing the filling device 4.
- a plurality of tanks 42, 44 and 46 are provided, for example, the tank 42 may be a leach tank, the tank 44 is an acid tank and the tank 46 symbolic of other possible tanks such as hot water tanks, cold water tanks and disinfectant tanks.
- the valves 43, 45, 47 and 53, 55 and 57 serve to control the flushing agent flow through the filling device.
- the rinsing agent is conveyed via a rinsing agent line 52 and via a flushing agent return line 58.
- the reference numerals 14, 16, and 18 refer to the above-mentioned connecting lines, which supply the filling device 4 with gaseous media or receive the gaseous medium from the filling device 4.
- the reference numeral 12 denotes a corresponding gas communication line which opens into the line connection 14, 16 and 18.
- These connection lines 14, 16 and 18 are each associated with valves 15, 17 and 19, which are independently switchable.
- a valve 15 may be a pneumatic valve for CIP cleaning in order to increase the total volume flow through the filling device and thereby increase the cleaning effect. It is usually open when there is no detection of gas valve specific flow rates.
- the reference numeral 17 is a pneumatic valve, which is used for quick unloading during the filling process and at reference numeral 19 to a pneumatic valve; which serves the slow relieving during the filling process.
- the reference numeral 26 refers to a further connecting line, which can serve here, for example, the fast filling.
- a pneumatic valve 27 is arranged in this line here.
- the connecting line 28 can serve the slow filling and also have a pneumatic valve 29.
- the valve opening cross-section in the valve for slow filling is less than that in the valve for rapid filling.
- the valve opening cross-sections in all valves are the same size and in line 28, a throttle (not shown) is arranged.
- These lines 26 and 28 are flushed by the flushing medium.
- the reference numeral 6 indicates in its entirety the gas exchange device which contains the individual connection lines 14, 16, 18, 26, 28, the valves 15, 17, 19, 27 and 29 and the gas communication line 12.
- the reference numeral 66 designates in its entirety the pneumatic block serving as a control device, which actuates the individual valves 15, 17, 19, 27, 29 and also the filling valve 4a via pneumatic connecting lines 48.
- this pneumatic block 66 communicates with the control device 62, so that the individual valves can also be switched in a time-delayed manner during the flushing process as a function of measurements of the flow measuring device 22 (which are communicated via the line 49). For example, it would be possible to first close the valves 15, 17, 27 and 29 during the flushing process and to open only the valve 19. In this way it can be determined whether sufficient rinsing agent has passed through the line connection 18. Subsequently, the valve 17 could be opened to determine in this way in addition, whether sufficient detergent has entered through the connecting line 16. This process can be repeated accordingly for the further line connections 14, 16, 18, 26 and 28.
- the reference numeral 24 refers to a return gas line, through which the filling gas re-enters the ring bowl during the filling process.
- the reference numeral 64 refers to a higher-level process control, which in particular during the flushing process, the coordination with other filling devices 4 and those associated individual valves or even preferably with (not shown) machines that are cleaned parallel to the filling system.
- the reference numeral 68 denotes a storage device which serves for storing flow rates of the individual filling devices 4 and also of the individual connecting lines. Reference values for the individual filling devices or connecting lines can also be stored in this memory device, with which comparisons can be made.
- Fig. 4a shows a rinsing process in which a lye cleaning of the valve 19, which is responsible for the rapid unloading, is made.
- the valves 43, 53, 54 and 19, each shown in black, are opened, the other valves are closed. Accordingly, the flushing medium can only take the path via the line connection 18, so that the flushing agent is first returned via this line connection and then via the filling device 4 and finally via the flow measuring device 22 again.
- the inventive principle "yes / no flow detection” can not be used only in Greeti in which a flow meter for quantity detection in the product line 36 is arranged. If, for example, the product quantity to be filled is determined with a level probe which extends into a container 10, or if a container 10 is arranged on a load cell during filling, a simple "flow switch" can be arranged in the product line 36 instead of a flow meter, for example no flow rates determined, but only the qualitative statement "flow yes / no” makes. In this way, the operating method according to the invention with any filling technology is applicable.
- Fig. 4b shows a situation in which a complete acid cleaning of all valves 15, 17 and 19 is made.
- the valves 45, 55 are opened to the acid tank 44 and the acid is passed through all line connections 14, 16 and 18 and also the associated valves 15, 17 and 19.
- An advantageous embodiment of the filling installation 1 has a further flow measuring device (not shown) in the return gas line 24.
- a further flow measuring device (not shown) in the return gas line 24.
- the valves 17 and 19 and the filling valve 40 are closed. Only the valve 15 and the valve 27 or 29, in which the flow rate is to be determined, are open. Again, a simple "flow switch" for yes / no flow detection can be used.
