Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning machine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Bottle or container cleaning machines of this type are known in different designs. Basically common to such machines is a machine-internal, endlessly circulating drivable transport system with a plurality of container or bottle cells for receiving a respective container. These are moved by the transport system from a container inlet through several treatment stations or zones before they arrive as a cleaned container to a container outlet of the cleaning machine. At least one treatment zone (injection zone) is used for spraying or Vorabspritzen the container on its outer or lateral surface for removing labels, label residues or other adhering foreign bodies, before the containers are then fed to the transport system of another treatment zone, such as a barter.
  • injection zone injection zone
  • Vorabspritzen the container on its outer or lateral surface for removing labels, label residues or other adhering foreign bodies
  • the containers are arranged with their container axis vertically or substantially vertically in the container cells open at the bottom and slide with their container bottom at least one sliding surface formed by a sliding grate.
  • the spraying of the container takes place by means of spray nozzles from above.
  • a disadvantage of known cleaning machines that it often comes in this spray zone to damage containers on the container bottom, but in particular also to a blocking of labels on the sliding grate and thus to a blocking and tilting of the containers.
  • the DE 965 678 deals with a device for guiding the container mouth of container oriented with its mouth downwards.
  • the container mouths should be aligned to a directed into the container makesmittsistrahl. This document does not contribute to the cleaning of the mantle surfaces of containers.
  • the FR 76 10052 present an apparatus in which the containers located in the container cells are first pushed up an inclined plane by the container cells and then slide down an inclined plane, the containers changing their position within the container cells. Bel this device, the container with your floor over the entire surface of the inclined plane, which can lead to the carryover of labels.
  • the object of the invention is to show a cleaning machine in which by appropriate design of the at least one guide on the treatment zone designed as a spray zone damage to containers on the container bottom and in particular a tilting, blocking of containers and / or labels is avoided.
  • a treatment machine according to the patent claim 1 is formed.
  • 1 is a treatment zone of a container or bottle cleaning machine, not otherwise shown, which in the manner known to those skilled u.a. an endlessly circulating driven transport system, with which the bottles 2 are moved between a bottle application for the cleaning bottles and a bottle delivery for the cleaned bottles through several treatment zones, and so on. also through the treatment zone 1. At this takes place a spraying of the bottles 2 in particular on its outer or lateral surface for detaching existing labels, label residues or other foreign substances.
  • the transport system comprises in the manner known to those skilled in endlessly driven chains 3 a plurality of bottle baskets 4, each having a plurality of perpendicular to the transport direction A adjoining bottle cells 5 for receiving a respective bottle 2 to be cleaned.
  • the bottle cells 5, which are oriented in the region of the treatment zone 1 with its bottle cell axis in each case in a vertical or substantially vertical direction, are adapted with regard to their shape shaping of the bottles 2, form at their in the representation of FIG. 1 upper end a lattice-like structure having a plurality of openings, which serves as a contact for the mouth 2.1 of the bottle 2 in other treatment zones.
  • the bottle cells 5 are open.
  • the axial dimension and the interior of the bottle cells 5 is slightly larger than the height and the maximum outer diameter of the bottles. 2
  • At the treatment zone 1 is above the trajectory of the bottle baskets 4 oriented with its axis in the horizontal direction and perpendicular to the transport direction
  • the nozzles 7 are oriented in such a way that at least one downwardly directed spray jet 8 is introduced into the bottle cells 4 moving past the nozzle 7 via each nozzle 7.
  • the number of spray nozzles 7 is at least equal to the number of bottle cells 5 of each bottle cage 4.
  • the spray tube 6 is arranged, for example, stationary. In principle, it is also possible to form the spray tube 6 and / or its nozzles 7 such that the respective spray jet 8 is moved over a short distance with the respective bottle cell 5.
  • bottles 2 slide with their protruding from the lower, open end of the bottle cell 5 bottle bottom 2.2 on a sliding grid or grate 9, which also allows that with the beams 8 of the bottles 2 detached labels, label residues, foreign matter, etc. can be removed together with the cleaning liquid through the sliding grate 9 through below the movement path of the bottle cells 5.
  • the bottles 2 are guided with their bottle bottom 2.2 on sliding guides 10 and 11, for example, also as lattice-like structures or as a continuous Sliding plates are formed.
  • the sliding grate 9 is formed with a special sliding structure, which also targeted during treatment Change in position of the surfaces 2 in the bottle cells 5 when passing the treatment zone 1 allows, in such a way that a particularly effective treatment ofcommercenaussen- or lateral surface with the respective spray jet 8 results.
  • the sliding structure is in the in FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrated embodiment of a plurality of strip-like sliders 12 are formed, which are oriented with their longitudinal extent L respectively in the transport direction or substantially in the transport direction A and of which in each case a slider in the middle of the movement path of the bottle cell 5 is arranged.
  • the number of sliders 12 is therefore at least equal to each of the rows extending in the transport direction A cylinder rows or groups.
  • Each slider 12 forms an edge or strip-like sliding surface 13, against which the bottles 2 abut with its bottom 2.2 and the succession in the transport direction A one after the level of the sliding surface 10 ramp-like portion 13.1, then a ramp-like sloping section 13.2 and one having a repeated ramp-like rising portion 13.3, which ends at the level or slightly above the level of the subsequent sliding surface 11.
  • the strip-like sliding surface 13 of each slider 12 is exposed, i.
  • the level of the strip-like sliding surface 13 of each slider 12 is higher than the level of adjacent areas of the sliding grate 9, so that the bottles 2 slide on passing the treatment zone 1 with its bottom 2.2 exclusively on the sliding surfaces 13 of the sliders 12.
  • the above-mentioned change in position of the bottles 2 takes place when passing the spray jet 8 by lifting and tilting or pivoting each bottle 2.
  • the transition between the sections 13.1 and 13.2 is located in the illustrated embodiment, approximately below the respective spray nozzle 7.
  • the sliding surfaces 13 and their projection surfaces have a width in the range between about 2 mm and 15 mm.
  • the sliding grate 9 in this embodiment consists of several, for example, made of a metallic sheet, such as stainless steel sliding grate elements 14 and 15, each with the openings of the sliding grate 9 forming recesses 14.1 and 15.1 are provided, in the horizontal direction and perpendicular to connect to the conveying direction A to each other and record between them the sliders 12, which protrude with their sliding surfaces 13 on the plane of the elements 14 and 15 clearly.
