Description

DISPOSITIF DE DELIVRANCE SUSPENDU SUSPENDED DELIVERY DEVICE
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de délivrance de produit pour installation de remplissage de récipients. L'invention a également pour objet une installation de remplissage comportant de tels dispositifs.The present invention relates to a product delivery device for container filling installation. The invention also relates to a filling installation comprising such devices.
Une installation de remplissage comporte généralement un bâti sur lequel est montée une plateforme rotative surmontée d'un ensemble d'alimentation en produit comportant une ou plusieurs lignes d'alimentation. Les lignes d'alimentation ont des extrémités auxquelles sont raccordés des dispositifs de délivrance de produit comportant chacun une tubulure ayant au moins une extrémité pourvue de moyens de sa fixation à la ligne d'alimentation et une extrémité opposée pourvue d'un bec. Le dispositif comprend en outre un clapet de dosage associé à des moyens de commande. Les moyens de commande comprennent des organes de dosage, par exemple par pesage ou à niveau constant, permettant de doser la quantité de produit. Des supports de récipients sont solidaires de la plateforme pour supporter les récipients à l'aplomb des becs de remplissage.A filling installation generally comprises a frame on which is mounted a rotating platform surmounted by a product supply assembly comprising one or more feed lines. The feed lines have ends to which are connected product delivery devices each having a tubing having at least one end provided with means for its attachment to the feed line and an opposite end provided with a spout. The device further comprises a metering valve associated with control means. The control means comprise dosing elements, for example by weighing or constant level, for dosing the amount of product. Container supports are integral with the platform to support the containers directly above the filling spouts.
Un but de l'invention est de fournir un moyen pour rendre ces installations plus polyvalentes en facilitant des aménagements portant notamment sur le mode de dosage ou le support des récipients.An object of the invention is to provide a means to make these facilities more versatile by facilitating arrangements including the dosing mode or the support containers.
A cet effet, on prévoit, selon l'invention, un dispositif de délivrance de produit pour installation de remplissage de récipient, comprenant une tubulure ayant au moins une extrémité pourvue d'un bec et une extrémité opposée pourvue de moyens de sa fixation à une ligne d'alimentation de l'installation de remplissage, et une platine fixée à la tubulure et pourvue d'un support ayant une partie s' étendant en regard du bec pour supporter un récipient, le dispositif comportant au moins un clapet de dosage et des moyens de commande s' étendant à l'extérieur de la tubulure et comprenant un organe de dosage pondéral, les moyens de commande étant reçus dans un boîtier solidaire de la tubulure.For this purpose, there is provided, according to the invention, a product delivery device for a container filling installation, comprising a tubing having at least one end provided with a spout and an opposite end provided with means for attaching it to a spout. supply line of the filling plant, and a platen fixed to the tubing and provided with a support having a portion extending facing the spout to support a container, the device comprising at least one metering valve and control means extending outside the tubing and comprising a weight dosing member, the control means being received in a housing integral with the tubing.
Ainsi, le support de récipient est suspendu à la tubulure qui sera elle-même suspendue à la ligne d'alimentation. La fixation du dispositif de délivrance permet de la sorte de fixer le support. Aucune intervention n'est nécessaire sur la plateforme. Le dispositif de délivrance incorpore les moyens de commande qui sont fixés à la tubulure. La suspension du dispositif de délivrance à la ligne d'alimentation permet de fixer également les moyens de commande en plus du support. Le boîtier assure une protection des moyens de commande contre les agressions extérieures et notamment les projections de liquide, la poussière et les chocs lors de la mise en place ou du retrait du dispositif de délivrance. Avantageusement, le support comporte des moyens élastiques de maintien des récipients ne nécessitant pas d'être commandés de manière positive ou des moyens électriques de maintien ne nécessitant pour être commandés qu'une alimentation électrique.Thus, the container support is suspended from the tubing which will itself be suspended from the supply line. Fixing the delivery device thus allows to fix the support. No intervention is needed on the platform. The delivery device incorporates the control means which are attached to the tubing. The suspension of the delivery device at the feed line also makes it possible to fix the control means in addition to the support. The housing provides protection of the control means against external aggression and in particular liquid splashes, dust and shocks during the introduction or removal of the delivery device. Advantageously, the support comprises elastic means for holding containers that do not need to be positively controlled, or electrical holding means requiring only a power supply to be controlled.
L'invention a également pour objet une installation de remplissage comportant une ligne d'alimentation en produit à laquelle est suspendu au moins un dispositif de délivrance présentant l'une quelconque des caractéristiques précédentes.The invention also relates to a filling installation comprising a product feed line which is suspended at least one delivery device having any of the preceding characteristics.
L' installation a ainsi une structure simple résultant de la suspension du support à la ligne d'alimentation de l'installation.The installation thus has a simple structure resulting from the suspension of the support at the supply line of the installation.
