Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closing tool explained in the preamble of claim 1 Art.
  • Such a closing tool is from the DE 1006292 B known.
  • the known closure tool further includes gripping means of a plurality of gripping segments which are circularly grouped about a center line which in use coincides with the center line of the container and which can approach and depart to a limited extent from the center line. With this embodiment, minor tolerances that can occur regularly even with the most careful production of closures are compensated, so that the error rate is not screwed closures is reduced.
  • the gripping segments are slidably received for this purpose radially to the center line in a posture and are loaded in the direction of their closed position by springs.
  • One of the springs is placed as an O-ring over the outer circumference of the gripping segments and pushes the gripping segments toward the center line.
  • Another spring acts axially of the center line and presses the gripping segments against a provided on the underside of the closing tool retaining plate so that there is increased friction.
  • the opening movement of the gripping segments for receiving the closure must be applied when pressing the closing tool on the closure to accommodate this.
  • the closing tool is pressed onto the closure from above, wherein an inlet slope on the gripping segments ensures that the closure can radially press apart the gripping segments, against both the force of the annular spring and against the frictional force on the support plate until the closure in the interior of the tool abuts against a stop.
  • Both the O-ring spring and the friction on the support plate then ensure that the gripping segments do not drift further apart, so that the closure can be held.
  • the load capacity of an O-ring is limited, so that only small differences in the closure sizes can be covered.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object universally form a closing tool for a capping machine for applying a closure to a container and equip in a simple manner for aseptic operation.
  • the gripping device according to the invention is formed with mutually movable gripping members.
  • the gripping members may be pivotable about an axis to perform gripping and releasing movements.
  • the gripper path for the correct gripping of the closure is not limited to the actual dimensions of the closure, since the closure does not have to open the gripper.
  • the closing tool according to the invention works more gently, since there is no friction between the closure and the gripping device for gripping (picking) and the opening force of the gripping device does not have to be applied through the closure.
  • the magnets of the magnetic actuator can be adjusted by a gleichpoligen in a non-uniform opposition by relative displacement or by rotational movements.
  • One embodiment is to arrange the gripping members in a circle about a center line and to pivot about a pivot axis and to arrange one of the magnets of the magnet actuator on the gripping member, the second magnet of the gripper being fixed to a support movable along the center line Magnetic attraction and magnetic repulsion, the gripping device is opened or closed.
  • This embodiment also has the advantage that the closing tool can thus be equipped in a simple manner for aseptic operation, wherein only the holder is received in a closed sleeve (permeable to the magnetic field), so that a contamination of the aseptically held closing tool from the drive side (Screwing and lifting movements) is prevented.
  • a particularly simple construction results from the fact that the gripping members are arranged radially displaceably in a holder and the magnets of the magnet actuation are arranged distributed around the gripping segments on two concentric circles.
  • the closing tool for example a lifting movement in the direction of and away from the container, but also a screwing motion, at least partially generated by magnetic force.
  • Fig. 1 shows in schematic representation and in longitudinal section a closing unit 1 of a closing machine for closing containers, not shown with a closure 2.
  • the closing unit 1 is shown in the illustrated embodiment in an aseptic design and includes a partition wall 3 of the closing machine, a clean room area RR of a gray room GR separates.
  • the partition wall 3 separates the closing unit 1 into a drive part 4 and a closing tool 5.
  • the tool 5 a housing 6, in which a gripping device 7 is housed.
  • the gripping device 7 is preferably replaceable housed in the housing 6 and can be exchanged for the handling of different closures. Especially with aseptic design, these components are gap-free and sealed mounted.
  • the gripping device 7 includes in the illustrated embodiment, a plurality of gripping members 8 in the form of gripping segments, which are grouped around the center line 7 'of the gripping device 7.
  • the term "gripping member” is intended to cover all structures capable of gripping and holding the shutter 2.
  • Each gripping member 8 is pivotable about a substantially horizontal axis of rotation 9 in the form of a bolt or the like. In a gripping position for holding the shutter 2 and a release position for releasing the shutter.
  • the rotation axis 9 divides the gripping member 8 into a lower arm 8a provided with gripping members 10 such as latching projections or corrugations or the like with which the shutter 2 can be securely held, and an upper arm 8b to which a magnetic actuator 11 for pivoting the gripping members 8 about the axis of rotation 9 and thus for opening and closing the gripping device 7 acts.
  • the magnet actuation 11 contains permanent magnets and is based on the known physical principle that poles of the same name repel permanent magnets and attract different poles.
  • the solenoid actuation 11 is executed in the illustrated embodiment in linear combination, wherein a first magnet 12 and a second magnet 13 in the axial direction next to each other along the center line 7 'on the second arm 8b of the gripping member 8 are.

If the third magnet 14 is located at the level of the first magnets 12 of all gripping members 8, the gripping members 8 are pivoted into the in Fig. 2 shown closed position, the gripped closure 2 can be held and screwed. When this is done, the third magnet 14 moves down the center line 7 'until it faces the second magnet 13 of all the gripping members 8. Now takes place the attraction, which pivot the gripping members 8 about the axis of rotation 9 in an open position in which the shutter 2 is released.
  • This type of solenoid actuation 11 is particularly suitable for the clean room or aseptic design Fig. 1 , here only the support rod 15 with the third magnet 14 in a closed, sleeve-like Auswerferstange 16 (permeable to magnetic fields) accommodated is.

  • the lifting movement for opening and closing the gripping members 8 also takes place via the magnetic coupling 21 on the tool 5, wherein the lifting movement is transmitted here only during the screwing movement.
  • the movement of the support rod 15 is separate from the lifting movement and independent of the drive system.
  • the drive movements can also by other means, such. B. be generated pneumatically, electrically or electromagnetically.
  • stops 25 for the insertion depth of the closure 2 into the tool can be arranged.
  • the 3 and 4 show a modified embodiment of a closing tool 105, which differs from the embodiment according to the Fig. 1 and 2 only differs by a different arrangement of the magnets of the magnetic actuator 111.

  • the gripping members 8 in the form of gripping segments are here only provided with the first magnet 12, which on all three segments with the same polarity inwards, i. pointing to the center line 7 ', are arranged. In the illustrated embodiment, this is the north pole.
  • the support rod 15 is not axially displaced longitudinally to the center line 7 ', but rotated about it, as indicated by the arrow D.
  • each other poles come in a position opposite the first magnet 12 at the gripping segments position, wherein, like Fig. 4 shows, initially a repulsion takes place to close the gripping device, and in the next step, an attraction takes place and thus the gripping segments opens.
