Definitions
- the invention relates to a production plant according to claim 1 and to a buffer memory according to claim 17 and to methods according to claim 30.
- Production plants for filling products in the form of a liquid filling material are known in various designs and usually consist of a system for providing the product, from at least one filling machine, which serves to fill the container with the product and connected via at least one product line with the system for providing the product, and at least one buffer memory or - container, which is connected with its inlet and outlet to the product line, namely for the controlled recording, intermediate storage and delivery of the product to the product line or to the filling machine.
- the plant for providing the product is, for example, a mixing plant in which the product (beverage) is produced by mixing via appropriate mixing and metering systems comprising a plurality of components, for example water as the basic component, beverage syrup and carbon dioxide. This will then be e.g. cached in the buffer memory and fed from there to the filling machine.
- the equipment for providing the product is, for example, a pasteurizer or a short-term heating system (hereinafter referred to as the KZE plant) in which the product is briefly heated or pasteurized for sterilization.
- the upstream plant for the provision of the product may alternatively or additionally also be a filter plant.
- the product thus treated is then also temporarily stored in the buffer tank and fed from there to the filler.
- the size or the storage volume of such formed in known systems of a large volume buffer tank Buffer storage is depending on the application and performance in the order of between about 1500 and 30,000 I.
- the buffer memory serves as a pressure or shock compensator between the system for providing the product and the filling machine. Process-related pressure peaks in the product are compensated by the buffer memory or by a permanently acting in the buffer memory or existing pressurized Inertgaspolster or buffer.
- a buffer storage in the form of a large-volume buffer container further allows a discontinuous production operation, ie in particular a discontinuous performance of the system for providing the product and / or a discontinuous decrease performance of the filler machine. In particular, at least temporary deviations of the performance of the system for providing the product and the removal performance of the filler machine can be compensated. 4.
- a stop of the filling machine for example, to drive the product in the KZE plant several times through the heating device of this KZE plant there.
- the corresponding product batch or quantity undergoes an excessive heat load, often with the result of a change in taste, which can also be perceived by the consumer.
- a disadvantage of known production facilities however, inter alia, that the respective, serving as a buffer storage tank at a correspondingly large height also has a large diameter, in particular a diameter which is greater by a multiple than the diameter of the feed and / or discharges. This results in considerable disadvantages, especially if the product is food, in particular drinks.
- a regular, thorough cleaning and / or disinfection or sterilization of all elements of the production plant which come into contact with the product and thus also of the buffer storage tank is required.
- the cleaning and / or sterilization media must be introduced into the container by means of spray nozzles and / or spray nozzles.
- the object of the invention is to show a production plant, which avoids the aforementioned disadvantages, by at least one buffer memory, which can be cleaned, disinfected and sterilized, in particular, even without great expenditure of time.
- a production plant is designed according to claim 1.
- a buffer storage for use in a production plant is the subject of patent claim 14.
- the buffer memory or the interior of this memory is formed by at least one pipe or pipe, wherein the tube is repeatedly coiled and / or bent and / or angled to accommodate the necessary for the storage volume pipe length, and Although regardless of this shape of the tube so that within the tube and thus within the buffer memory, starting from a O- of the buffer storage forming pipe end or pipe section to the bottom of the buffer memory is a constant slope, or vice versa, starting from a the bottom of the Buffer memory or a local outlet and / or inlet of the buffer storage forming pipe end or pipe section along the pipe, the local height of this tube increases.
- the invention is based on the recognition that such a buffer memory, which is tank-like buffer tank in comparison to conventional buffers and a greatly reduced storage volume, for example, a storage volume of a maximum of 500 I, z. B. has a storage volume between only 501 and 500 I, which can fully meet a buffer memory functions in a production facility, if monitored by a suitable control and monitoring electronics - for example in the form of a control computer - and / or controlled and / or regulated. It is particularly advantageous if zBua the volume flow of the product from the system for providing the product to the filling machine and the flow rate in the buffer memory and the volume flow from the buffer memory to the filling machine detected and controlled or regulated.
- the machine parameters stored in the memory of the control computer are, for example, characteristic values of the system for providing the product and the filling machine.
- the control characteristics or the response behavior of the mixing plant 2 when starting or when changing the amount of product removed for example, as the number of liters of the product with different composition after a change in the purchase amount by x%.
- the measured values determined at the measuring points of the production plant are, for example, the current volume flow of the product at the outlet of the plant for providing the product, the current volume flow of the product fed to the filling machine, the current pressure in the buffer tank, etc.
- the reduced storage volume means an excessively long residence time of product quantities and thus possibly qualitative Impairment of the product avoided.
- the buffer forming the tube can be made with a cross section which is equal to or at least approximately equal to the cross section of the terminals of the buffer memory, thus avoiding, among other things for a cleaning and / or disinfection and / or sterilization medium hard to reach areas within the buffer memory and thereby an optimal and simplified cleaning, disinfecting and sterilizing the buffer memory, in particular without the need of opening the buffer memory and / or without disassembly of elements of the buffer memory is possible.
- the buffer as part of a conventional CIP cleaning and / or sterilization and / or disinfection of the production plant with.
- the cleaning and / or sterilization and / or disinfection medium used can flow through the buffer storage in a turbulent flow, whereby an intensive treatment is achieved.
- a particular advantage further consists in that the buffer memory is not a decrease and / or approval required pressure vessel, but the buffer memory could be made of a tube material, which already has the release for the maximum occurring in the production plant or in the buffer pressure ,
- 1 and 2 each show a production plant for bottling beverages in containers in the form of bottles;
- FIG. 3 shows a simplified perspective perspective view of the buffer memory of the production plant of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the production plant generally designated 1 in FIG. 1, consists essentially of a mixing plant 2 for providing a beverage by mixing a flavoring component (syrup) and water with the addition of carbon dioxide, from a filling machine 3 of a surrounding type for filling containers in the form of bottles 4 with the beverage produced in the mixing plant 2 and from a buffer store 5 arranged in the product connection between the mixing plant 2 and the filling machine 3.
- the mixing plant 2 has the training known in the art and includes u.a. Container 5 and 6 for providing water as the main component and the flavor-forming component at a mixing section 8, where the components are mixed and the resulting beverage is carbonated.
- the outlet of the mixing section 8 is connected via a product line 9 to the filling machine or to the filling material vessel 11 common to the filling elements 10 of the filling machine 3.
- the peculiarity of the buffer memory 5 is that it is formed substantially only by at least one tube 12 which is bent and / or wound and / or angled and / or coiled several times, in such a way that this tube 12, starting from the top of the buffer store 5 or of a local upper pipe end or section 12.1 to the underside of the buffer store 5 or to a local pipe end or to a local pipe section 12.2 with a constant gradient.
- the length of the tube 12 is chosen so that the buffer memory 5 has the required storage volume, which, however, compared to buffer tanks or boilers, which are commonly used in production plants, is greatly reduced.
- the storage volume of the buffer tank 5 is a maximum of 500 liters or less and is for example in the range between about 50 liters and 500 liters.
- the upper end 12.1 is provided with a discharge valve 13 and connected via a control valve device 14 to a source 15 which provides an inert gas, for example nitrogen or CO2 gas under controlled pressure.
- another blocking valve 18 is provided.
- the buffer tank 5 or its tube 12 is partially filled with the product (beverage), in the form that in the upper region of the buffer 5 within the tube 12, a buffer pad from the inert gas with a regulated pressure.
- the valve 18 is opened and the valve 16 is closed.
- the buffer memory 5 is used in the production plant 1 u.a. for buffering during commissioning of the production plant 1 or the mixing plant 2, the product may not yet have the required mixing ratio of water and from the taste-forming additive during start-up and stored for this reason, first in the buffer memory 5 and then from the buffer memory 5 during the current operation of the production plant 1 is dosed in the product line 9 added or added to the product provided by the blending plant 3 in the proper mixture or recipe that the products bottled in the bottles 2 also meet the requirements in terms of taste.
- the buffer memory 5 further serves, inter alia, to compensate for volume fluctuations in the product provided by the mixing system 2 and / or removed from the filling machine 3 product, in particular shock-like volume fluctuations in order to avoid impairment of the filling process of the filling machine 3 by such fluctuations. Furthermore, the buffer memory also serves to influence the effects of startup and shutdown phases as well as changes in the performance of the filling Machine 3 to compensate for the product flow, but at least to mitigate. In particular, the buffer memory 5 also serves to compensate for difference volumes between the product volume provided by the mixing plant 2 and the product volume removed by the filling machine 3.
- the buffer memory 5 In order for the buffer memory 5, despite its relatively small storage volume, to be able to fulfill these and other tasks, it is necessary to monitor, control and / or regulate the components of the production plant 1 and in particular also the buffer memory 5 as precisely as possible. For this purpose u.a. in the product line 9 in the direction of flow to the outlet of the mixing plant 2 following a flow meter 19, with which the volume flow of the output from the mixing plant 2 product is detected, and provided in flow direction to the buffer memory 5 before the filling machine 3, another flow meter 20, with which the filler 3 supplied volume flow of the product is detected.
- a further flow meter 30 is arranged at the lower end of the buffer memory 5. With this flow meter 30, it is possible to determine the liquid volume flowing into or out of the buffer memory 5, independently of the other fluid streams.
- the measurement signals corresponding to the flow rate of the flowmeters 19 and 20 and / or 30 are supplied to a control device or control computer 21, together with other measured values or parameters of sensors or probes, including one provided at the upper end 12.1 of the tube 12 and the Pressure in the buffer memory 5 detected pressure sensor 22, one of the level and pressure in Medgutkessel 11 of the filling machine 3 detecting sensor 23 and one of the rotational speed of the rotor of the filling machine 3 and thus the current performance of the filling machine (filled bottles 4 per unit time multiplied by the volume each bottle 4) detecting sensor 24th It is also advantageous to know the current level of the buffer memory 5 at any time exactly.
- the fill level of the buffer store 5 can be determined, for example, by a constant "calculation" of the fluid streams flowing to or from the buffer store 5, or else by fill-level sensors attached to the buffer store 5. Furthermore, it is also possible to have a stop at the lower end of the buffer store 5 Bi-directional pump with high accuracy of the per revolution or power stroke promoted volume flow, for example, to arrange a metering pump, which allows the storage tank 5 precisely defined liquid volumes to be fed or removed can be completely replaced, or at least effectively supported, and the time required for filling / emptying the buffer can also be reduced.
- parameters and / or program routines generates the control computer 21 electrical control variables for controlling or regulating the production plant 1 and in particular for the control of valves 25-27, of which the valve 25 in the product line 9 in the connection between the outlet of the mixing plant 2 and the buffer 5, the valve 26 in the product line 9 in the connection between the buffer 5 and the filling machine 3 and the valve 27 are provided at the exit and inlet of the buffer memory 5.
- the pressure of the inert gas buffer in the upper region of the pressure accumulator 5 is adjusted to the required value by the control computer 21 taking into account the measurement signal supplied by the pressure sensor 22. Furthermore, when the production plant 1 or the mixing plant 2 is started up, taking into account the characteristic values stored in the memory of the control computer 21, in particular regarding the control behavior of the mixing plant 2, the introduction of the product delivered by the mixing plant 2 first takes place in the Buffer memory 5 until it can be assumed that the mixing plant 2 delivers at its output of the product with the desired formulation.
- the metered mixing of the product phase possibly stored in the buffer memory 5, which may not correspond to the desired formulation takes place by appropriate control of the control valve 27 and / or by appropriate adjustment of the pressure of the inert gas buffer in the buffer memory 5 and / or. or by suitable control of the metering pump.
- the product volume located in each case in the buffer memory 5 can be determined very accurately in the control computer 21.
- the product volume contained in the buffer memory 5 can also be determined by the flow meter 30 and a "calculation" of the control computer 21.

- the control computer 21 also supplies at least one manipulated variable for the control and / or control of the KZE system 28, in particular for controlling the volumetric flow at the outlet of this system, for example by appropriate actuation of a product feed pump 29. Otherwise, the buffer memory is filled 5 in the production plant 1a and the other, described above in connection with the production plant 1 functions, by appropriate control of the production plant 1a and in particular the various control valves 25 - 27 depending on the the measured value or parameters supplied to the control computer 21 and taking into account data, parameters and / or program instructions or routines stored in the control computer 21.
- the buffer memory 5 in the form of the multiply bent and / or coiled tube 13 with sufficient length without parallel strands, etc. taking into account the reduced storage volume of the buffer memory 5 u.a. achieved a shortened residence time of the introduced into the buffer storage 5 product quantities, so that product quantities or product volumes that remain in the buffer memory 5 over a longer period of time and this could be affected, for example, in their flavor quality, are avoided. Furthermore, the formation of the buffer memory 5 in the form of the tube 12 results in a substantially improved possibility of internal cleaning and / or internal sterilization and / or internal disinfection of the buffer memory 5. For this purpose, basically all known methods can be used which are suitable for internal cleaning and / or internal sterilization and / or internal disinfection of pipes.
- FIG. 3 again shows the buffer memory 5 in a perspective individual representation, in which the blocking valve 16 in the additional riser 17 has been omitted for simplification.
- the tube 12 forming the buffer store 5 is shaped in such a way that it forms a multi-wound or meander-like tube section in a plurality of vertically successive planes E1-En, located in the corresponding tube section of the next following plane to achieve the constant gradient within the buffer memory 5, the individual planes E1 - En are inclined so that two vertically successive planes E1 - E2, E2 - E3, etc.
- the number n of levels is seven.
- the described design of the buffer memory also ensures, in particular, that the medium used for cleaning and / or sterilization flows through the buffer store 5 or its tube 12, but also the associated riser 17 in a turbulent flow, so that this alone constitutes an optimal solution. maier cleaning and / or sterilization is ensured.
- the buffer memory 5 in a CIP cleaning and / or sterilization and / or internal disinfection of the production plant 1 or 1a and their connecting lines, namely by closing the valve 18 and opening the valve 16, so that the cleaning and / or sterilizing medium and / or disinfecting medium flowing through the product line 5 also flows through the buffer memory 5 or its tube 12, including the riser 17.
- the drain valve 13 at the upper end 12.1 of the buffer memory 5 at least briefly open.
- buffer memory 5 has advantages that for this principle no decrease and / or approval is required as a pressure vessel, since 5 pipes or pipe profiles are used for the preparation of the buffer memory, already on the appropriate release for the in the buffer memory. 5 have maximum pressure during operation.
- the buffer memory 5 can be completely emptied, for example at the end of a production and / or before and after one Cleaning and / or sterilization and / or disinfection of the production plant 1 or 1a.
