Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Behandeln von Behältnissen. Aus dem Stand der Technik sind diverse Vorrichtungen zum Behandeln von Behältnissen bekannt, wie beispielsweise Fülleinrichtungen zum Befüllen von Behältnissen mit einem Getränk, Reinigungseinrichtungen, Umformungseinrichtungen zum Umformen von Kunststoffvorformlingen zu Kunststoffbehältnissen, Sterilisationseinrichtungen und dergleichen. Die Erfindung wird unter Bezugnahme auf eine Fülleinrichtung zum Befüllen von Behältnissen beschrieben, es wird jedoch darauf hingewiesen, dass die Erfindung auch auf andere Vorrichtungen zum Behandeln von Behältnissen anwendbar ist.The present invention relates to a device for treating containers. Various devices for treating containers are known from the prior art, such as filling devices for filling containers with a beverage, cleaning devices, forming devices for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers, sterilization devices and the like. The invention will be described with reference to a filling device for filling containers, but it should be noted that the invention is also applicable to other devices for treating containers.
Bei derartigen Vorrichtungen zum Behandeln von Behältnissen ist es im Stand der Technik bekannt, dass diese neben einem Arbeitsmodus auch einen Spülmodus aufweisen, in dem ein Reinigungsmedium durch die jeweiligen Behandlungseinrichtungen wie beispielsweise Füllelemente geleitet wird, um diese zu reinigen. Zu diesem Zweck deckt ein Abdeck- bzw. Verschließelement das jeweilige Füllelement ab, sodass ein Reinigungsmittel den Bereich dieses Verschließelements passieren kann.In such devices for treating containers, it is known in the art that they have a rinsing mode in addition to a working mode in which a cleaning medium is passed through the respective treatment devices such as filling elements in order to clean them. For this purpose, a cover or closing element covers the respective filling element, so that a cleaning agent can pass through the region of this closing element.

Weiterhin sind Vorrichtungen bekannt, bei denen ein separates Hub/Drehelement zum Einschwenken und Anpressen des Abdeckelements verwendet wird. Diese Vorrichtungen arbeiten zufriedenstellend, sind jedoch technisch vergleichsweise aufwändig.Furthermore, devices are known in which a separate hub / rotary member is used for pivoting and pressing the cover. These devices work satisfactorily, but are technically relatively complex.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, derartige Behandlungsanlagen für Behältnisse einfacher hinsichtlich ihres Reinigungsbetriebs auszugestalten. Dies wird erfindungsgemäß durch den Gegenstand des unabhängigen Anspruchs erreicht. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen und Weiterbildungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.The present invention is therefore based on the object to design such treatment systems for containers easier in terms of their cleaning operation. This is achieved according to the invention by the subject matter of the independent claim. Advantageous embodiments and further developments are the subject of the dependent claims.
Eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zum Behandeln von Behältnissen weist ein Behandlungselement auf, welches die Behältnisse behandelt, und eine Abdeckeinrichtung, um das Behandlungselement wenigstens zeitweise während eines Reinigungsbetriebs für die Vorrichtung abzudecken. Dabei ist die Abdeckeinrichtung bezüglich einer vorgegebenen Achse schwenkbar und die Abdeckeinrichtung ist weiterhin in der Erstreckungsrichtung dieser Achse verschiebbar, um die Abdeckeinrichtung gegenüber dem Behandlungselement zu bewegen. Weiterhin ist die Abdeckeinrichtung an einer schwenkbaren Stange angeordnet, um bezüglich der Achse zwischen zwei Positionen geschwenkt zu werden und es ist weiterhin eine Stelleinrichtung bzw. ein Betätigungsmechanismus vorgesehen, um die Stange zu drehen, sowie eine Antriebseinrichtung, um die Stange in der Erstreckungsrichtung der Stange zu bewegen.A device according to the invention for treating containers has a treatment element which treats the containers, and a covering device in order to cover the treatment element at least temporarily during a cleaning operation for the device. In this case, the cover is pivotable with respect to a predetermined axis and the cover is further displaceable in the direction of extension of this axis in order to move the cover relative to the treatment element. Furthermore, the cover is arranged on a pivotable rod to Further, an actuator is provided to rotate the rod between two positions, and there is further provided an actuator for rotating the rod, and driving means for moving the rod in the extending direction of the rod.
Erfindungsgemäß ist eine der besagten Positionen eine Arbeitsposition, in der die Abdeckeinrichtung das Behandlungselement abdeckt und an der Stange ist eine Arretiereinrichtung angeordnet, welche die Stange in den beiden Positionen arretiert.According to the invention, one of said positions is a working position in which the covering device covers the treatment element and on the rod is arranged a locking device which locks the rod in the two positions.
Wie oben erwähnt, soll durch die Erfindung eine Vereinfachung erreicht werden und es soll bevorzugt auf einen separaten Antrieb zum Anpressen der Abdeckeinrichtung verzichtet werden. Daher wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, dass die Abdeckeinrichtung (im Folgenden auch als CIP-Kappe bezeichnet) auf einem eigenen Gestänge angeordnet ist, um aus der Ruheposition in die Arbeitsposition zu schwenken. Bevorzugt ist dabei sowohl die Ruheposition als auch die Arbeitsposition allein durch das besagte Gestänge bestimmt, wobei dies durch die Arretiereinrichtung, welche an der Stange angeordnet ist, und welche bevorzugt direkt mit der Stange verbunden ist, ermöglicht wird. Vorteilhaft handelt es sich bei der Arretiervorrichtung um eine mechanisch arbeitende Arretiervorrichtung, welche besonders bevorzugt ohne Antriebselemente wie Elektromotoren oder dergleichen auskommt. Unter der Arbeitsposition der Abdeckeinrichtung wird dabei eine Position der Abdeckeinrichtung verstanden, bei der die Vorrichtung in einem Spülbetrieb arbeiten kann.As mentioned above, a simplification is to be achieved by the invention and it should preferably be dispensed with a separate drive for pressing the cover. Therefore, the invention proposes that the covering (hereinafter also referred to as CIP cap) is arranged on a separate linkage to pivot from the rest position to the working position. Preferably, both the rest position and the working position is determined solely by said linkage, which is made possible by the locking device, which is arranged on the rod, and which is preferably connected directly to the rod. Advantageously, the locking device is a mechanically operating locking device, which particularly preferably manages without drive elements such as electric motors or the like. The working position of the covering device is understood to be a position of the covering device in which the device can operate in a flushing operation.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist die Stelleinrichtung einen an der Stange angeordneten Hebel auf, der mit einer insbesondere stationär angeordneten Führungskurve zusammenwirkt. In dieser Ausführungsform ist daher der Schwenkmechanismus, der die Stange in die Arbeitsposition und wieder zurück schwenkt, ein Kurvensegment bzw. eine Kurvenführung mit einem Betätigungshebel. Es wäre jedoch auch denkbar, das Schwenken durch einen Zylinder, oder durch einen pneumatischen, hydraulischen und/oder elektrischen Drehmechanismus durchzuführen.In an advantageous embodiment, the adjusting device has a lever arranged on the rod, which interacts with a guide track, which in particular is arranged in a stationary manner. In this embodiment, therefore, the pivoting mechanism, which pivots the rod in the working position and back again, a curve segment or a curve guide with an actuating lever. However, it would also be possible to perform the pivoting by a cylinder, or by a pneumatic, hydraulic and / or electric rotating mechanism.
Bevorzugt wird das Anpressen der Abdeckeinrichtung an das Behandlungselement, bei dem es sich insbesondere um ein Füllelement handelt, mit einer ohnehin vorhandenen Behältnisaufhängung bewerkstelligt. Dazu muss jedoch von dieser Behältnisaufhängung keine zusätzliche Positionierungsaufgabe übernommen werden. Diese Positionieraufgabe wird von der Arretiereinrichtung übernommen, welche die Abdeckeinrichtung bevorzugt zumindest in der Arbeitsposition arretiert, sodass eine genaue räumliche Anordnung insbesondere in der Schwenkposition der Abdeckeinrichtung möglich ist.Preferably, the pressing of the cover to the treatment element, which is in particular a filling element, accomplished with an already existing container suspension. However, this must be from this container suspension no additional positioning task is taken over. This positioning task is taken over by the locking device, which preferably locks the covering device at least in the working position, so that an exact spatial arrangement is possible, in particular in the pivoting position of the covering device.
Die Arretiereinrichtung arretiert die Stange und damit auch die Abdeckeinrichtung in beiden Positionen, d.h. sowohl in der Ruheposition, als auch in der Arbeitsposition.The locking device locks the rod and thus also the cover device in both positions, i. both in the resting position, as well as in the working position.
Bevorzugt weist die Arretiereinrichtung ein erstes Arretierelement auf, welches drehfest an der Stange angeordnet ist, sowie ein zweites Arretierelement, welches zumindest in der Schwenkrichtung stationär gegenüber der Vorrichtung angeordnet ist. Dabei wäre es auch möglich, dass beide Arretierelemente in der Erstreckungsrichtung bzw. Längsrichtung der Stange beweglich angeordnet sind, jedoch das erste Arretierelement drehfest an der Stange angeordnet ist. Auch wäre es möglich, dass beide Arretierelemente in der Längsrichtung der Stange an die Bewegung der Stange gekoppelt sind.Preferably, the locking device on a first locking element which is rotatably mounted on the rod, and a second locking element, which is arranged at least in the pivoting direction stationary relative to the device. It would also be possible that both locking elements are arranged to be movable in the direction of extent or longitudinal direction of the rod, but the first locking element is arranged non-rotatably on the rod. It would also be possible for both locking elements to be coupled in the longitudinal direction of the rod to the movement of the rod.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist an dem ersten Arretierelement ein stiftartiger Körper angeordnet, der in einer der Positionen in eine in dem zweiten Arretierelement angeordnete Ausnehmung eingreift. Vorteilhaft ist dabei dieser Stiftkörper federbelastet und wird auf diese Weise in Richtung des zweiten Arretierelements vorgespannt. Vorteilhaft dreht sich unter diesem federvorgespannten Stift das zweite Arretierelement in Form einer Platte, in der zwei Zentrierbohrungen, eine pro Stellung angebracht sind. Der Stiftkörper rastet in eine der Bohrungen ein und verhindert so das Verdrehen. Durch die Verstellkurve wird das komplette Gestänge gegen den Widerstand des Zentrierstifts so verdreht, dass der Stift in der anderen Position wieder einrastet. Auf diese Weise ist sichergestellt, dass die Stange in jeder der beiden Positionen sicher gehalten wird. Es wäre auch möglich, dass der Arretierstift auf einer drehenden Welle und die Platte an einem stehenden Teil des Ventils angeordnet ist.In a further advantageous embodiment, a pin-like body is arranged on the first locking element, which engages in one of the positions in a recess arranged in the second locking element. Advantageously, this pen body is spring loaded and is biased in this way in the direction of the second locking element. Advantageously, the second locking element rotates under this spring-biased pin in the form of a plate in which two centering holes, one per position are mounted. The pin body snaps into one of the holes and prevents twisting. Due to the adjustment curve, the complete linkage is rotated against the resistance of the centering pin so that the pin engages in the other position again. In this way it is ensured that the rod is held securely in each of the two positions. It is also possible that the locking pin is arranged on a rotating shaft and the plate on a stationary part of the valve.
Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Abdeckeinrichtung ein selbstentleerendes Abdeckelement. Hierunter ist zu verstehen, dass durch einen entsprechenden Mechanismus Flüssigkeit innerhalb der Abdeckeinrichtung (beispielsweise nach einem Reinigungsbetrieb) selbsttätig aus diesem entleert werden kann. Vorteilhaft weist die Abdeckeinrichtung einen selbstentleerenden Topf auf, sodass auch (Füll)-Ventilvarianten mit Rückluftrohren mit dieser Abdeckeinrichtung ausgestattet werden können. Es werden jedoch auch geschlossene Varianten ohne einen entsprechenden selbstentleerenden Topf denkbar. Es wird darauf hingewiesen, dass die Anwendung dieser selbstentleerenden Abdeckeinrichtung auch unabhängig von der oben genannten Gestaltung mit den beiden Arretierpositionen zur Verfügung gestellt werden kann.In a preferred embodiment, the covering device is a self-draining cover element. This is to be understood that by a corresponding mechanism liquid within the cover (for example, after a cleaning operation) can be automatically emptied from this. Advantageously, the cover has a self-emptying pot, so that (fill) valve variants with return air tubes with this Covering device can be equipped. However, there are also closed variants without a corresponding self-emptying pot conceivable. It should be noted that the application of this self-draining cover device can also be provided independently of the above-mentioned design with the two locking positions.
Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist an der Antriebseinrichtung eine Halteeinrichtung für die Behältnisse angeordnet. Dies bedeutet, dass eine bei diesen Anlagen üblicherweise vorhandene Halteeinrichtung, welche die Behältnisse hält und während des Füllvorgangs an das Füllelement andrückt, auch verwendet wird, um im Spülbetrieb die Abdeckeinrichtung an das jeweilige Füllelement zu führen.In a further advantageous embodiment, a holding device for the containers is arranged on the drive device. This means that a holding device which is usually present in these systems and which holds the containers and presses against the filling element during the filling process is also used in order to guide the covering device to the respective filling element during rinsing operation.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist die Abdeckeinrichtung ein Abdeckelement auf, welches in einer Halteeinrichtung angeordnet ist, wobei das Abdeckelement in Richtung der Schwenkachse beweglich (gegenüber der Halteeinrichtung) angeordnet ist. Dies bedeutet dass das Abdeckelement, welches das Füllelement unmittelbar im Spülbetrieb abdeckt, wiederum beweglich gegenüber einem Träger und zwar insbesondere beweglich in Richtung der Schwenkachse angeordnet ist. Durch diese Beweglichkeit kann die Selbstentleerung dieser Abdeckeinrichtung erreicht werden.In a further advantageous embodiment, the covering device has a covering element, which is arranged in a holding device, wherein the covering element is arranged to be movable in the direction of the pivoting axis (relative to the holding device). This means that the cover, which covers the filling element directly in the rinsing operation, in turn, is movably arranged with respect to a carrier and in particular movably in the direction of the pivot axis. By this mobility, the self-emptying of this cover can be achieved.
Vorteilhaft weist das Abdeckelement eine Bodenöffnung auf, ist also insbesondere nach unten hin offen. Weiterhin weist auch die Halteeinrichtung vorteilhaft in ihrer Umfangswandung Öffnungen zum Entleeren der Abdeckeinrichtung auf.Advantageously, the cover has a bottom opening, so it is open in particular downwards. Furthermore, the holding device also advantageously has openings for emptying the covering device in its peripheral wall.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist das Abdeckelement eine die Bodenöffnung umgebende Dichteinrichtung auf, um das Abdeckelement gegenüber der Halteeinrichtung abzudichten. So ist es möglich, dass in dem eigentlichen Spülbetrieb die Halteeinrichtung an das Abdeckelement angedrückt wird, sodass die Öffnung in dem Abdeckelement mit Hilfe der Dichteinrichtung, welche beispielsweise in der Art eines O-Rings ausgestattet sein kann, vollständig abgedichtet wird. Zum Selbstentleeren der Abdeckeinrichtung können das Abdeckelement und die Halteeinrichtung voneinander beabstandet werden, sodass nunmehr durch die Bodenöffnung des Abdeckelements und die Öffnungen in der Umfangswandung der Halteeinrichtung das Spülmittel abfließen kann.In a further advantageous embodiment, the covering element has a sealing device surrounding the bottom opening in order to seal the covering element with respect to the holding device. Thus, it is possible that in the actual rinsing operation, the holding device is pressed against the cover, so that the opening in the cover is completely sealed by means of the sealing device, which may for example be equipped in the manner of an O-ring. For self-draining the cover, the cover and the holding device can be spaced apart, so that now can drain through the bottom opening of the cover and the openings in the peripheral wall of the holding device, the detergent.
