Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lifting device according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and as from the DE 4 343 425 A1 known.
  • a rinsing cap sleeve or cup-shaped For filling valves, which have a central filling tube, which is introduced during the filling process in the bottle, a rinsing cap sleeve or cup-shaped be formed.
  • a filling machine with lifting device for bottles is known in which at each lifting an arm with one end is pivotally mounted, about a pivot axis which lies in a horizontal plane, ie. In a plane perpendicular to the filling machine axis and to the axis of the stroke lifting device.
  • a rinsing sleeve is fixed, in such a way that it is arranged by pivoting the arm from a rest position in which the rinsing sleeve is radially offset from the Greelementachse and with its open side facing down, in a prepared position or
  • the intermediate position is pivotable, in which the flushing sleeve is coaxially aligned with the Greelementachse, with its open side facing upwards and is attacked on its upper side on a radially beyond the circumference of the purging sleeve wegêt edge or flange of a fork-like container carrier.
  • the lifting device which also serves to press the respective bottle when filling against the filling element, the flushing sleeve is then from the intermediate position in the Working position moves.
  • the disadvantage here is, inter alia, that a considerable amount of space is required for the movement of the purging sleeve from the rest position to the working position.
  • the known lifting device requires a container or bottle carrier, which engages behind the bottles to be filled at a mouth bead.
  • tainers are in particular cans, bottles, tubes, pouches made of metal, glass and / or plastic, but also other packaging materials which are suitable for filling liquid or viscous products for pressure filling or for pressureless filling.
  • the object of the invention is to show a lifting device, which is characterized by a small footprint and small size with a simplified structure.
  • the carrying and lifting device has, in addition to the known lifting element, with which the stroke of the container carrier is generated, two further lifting elements, which are referred to here as “Hilfsshubelement” and “piston” and with which the movement of the respective rinsing between the rest position and the working position takes place, ideally, only in the direction of Bielementachse.
  • the container carrier which is preferably a container plate and is designed so free of steps or grooves that in particular foreign substances such as glass splinters, dust, etc. can not get into the respective rinsing sleeve when filling.
  • the filling machine can be moved outwards by means of the extensible, ie. from the rest position to the working position movable rinsing sleeves, for. after the end of production without any manual intervention only casually by a corresponding control command or by retrieving a corresponding program of the machine in a fully automatic CIP or SIP cleaning operation can be transferred.
  • the hitherto necessary insertion or insertion of rinsing sleeves is also unnecessary.
  • the support and lifting device in question is part of Drstuschiorien each with a filling element or a filling machine for filling bottles, cans or the like.
  • the support and lifting device comprises a base member and a container carrier and rinsing sleeve, which is movable either in whole or a sub-component thereof in its axial direction parallel to the Greelementachse up and down.
  • a piston-like Hilfshubelement is integrated in the container carrier that can be raised for cleaning and / or disinfection purposes and can be brought into a sealing position with the filling element.
  • a further piston is present in the container carrier, which is mounted centrally in the auxiliary lifting element and can be moved independently of the auxiliary lifting element parallel to a filling element axis.
  • the working position is the vertically lower end position of the piston, in which this is formed together with the Hilfsshubelement, also in its working position, as a purging sleeve.
  • the piston is mounted centrally in the auxiliary lifting element, or can preferably be moved counter to the direction of movement by the auxiliary lifting element and parallel to a filling element axis.
  • individual drive means may be provided for the piston and the auxiliary lifting device, ideally electromagnetic drives.
  • a pressure chamber is provided on one side of the piston, wherein the pressure chamber is acted upon via a control valve having a control line with a pressure medium.
  • This will usually be compressed air, possibly sterile compressed air.
  • the piston can thus be moved relative to the auxiliary lifting element in the direction of the filling valve axis.
  • the pressure chamber of the piston and / or the Hilfsshubvortechnisch is connected via a control valve to a vacuum source and / or a pressure source.
  • a control valve to a vacuum source and / or a pressure source.
  • a further improvement of the support and lifting device is the Hilfsshubvortechnisch with integrated connecting lines, preferably in the form of holes, is.
  • the pressure chamber of the piston with the pressure chamber of the Hilfshubvorraum brought about holes in the Hilfsshubvorraum in combination.
  • the space below the piston is connected to the atmosphere and thus prevents unwanted pressure build-up in the discharge chamber.
  • the bore cross sections of the connecting lines are dimensioned such that the piston and the auxiliary lifting device assume the desired speed of movement.
  • throttle valves are used in the connecting lines. It is particularly advantageous that are set by the throttle valves, the movement time and the speed of movement of the piston and the Hilfsshubvorraum.
  • FIG. 1 the carrying and lifting device 1 is shown in an embodiment which consists, inter alia, of a base element 3 shown in a schematic representation and a container carrier 4 shown in full section.
  • a Hilfsshubelement 5 and a piston 6 is arranged, on the upper surface, the container plate 10, a container 2 is pressed against a filling element 11.
  • To the container carrier 4 is via a control valve 12, the vacuum source 7 and the pressure source 8 connected.
  • the vacuum source 7 acts via the control valve 12 to the pressure chamber 15 and via the connecting bore 13 to the pressure chamber 14 and holds the Hilfsshubelement 5 and the piston 6 in a rest position I.
  • the relief hole 20 connects the atmosphere with the discharge chamber 21 and prevents thus an unwanted pressure build-up in this area.
  • the base member 3 is designed as a pneumatic cylinder with piston rod 16 and attached to a carousel, not shown.
  • the support and lifting device 1 by means of pressurization in Medelementachse 18 via a controller, not shown, movable.
  • the support and lifting device 1 is cam-controlled via the wheel 19 located on the base element 3 and can thus be moved into a defined position.
  • FIG. 2 is the carrying and lifting device 1 as in FIG. 1 also rest position I in shown. It is different, however, that the control valve 12 is set in such a way that the pressure chamber 15 and the pressure chamber 14 is acted upon by the connecting bore 13 with a pressure medium of the pressure source 8.
  • the relief bore 20 connects the discharge space 21 with the atmosphere, whereby an unwanted pressure build-up in this area is prevented.
  • the in FIG. 2 Switching process shown is required when switching from the operating state "filling" to the operating state "cleaning" of the filler
  • the position of the washing sleeve 17 during cleaning is in FIG. 3 shown.
  • the control valve 12 switches the pressure medium of the pressure source 8 to the pressure chamber 15 and via the connecting bore 13 to the pressure chamber 14, wherein the relief bore 20 connects the discharge chamber 21 with the atmosphere and thus prevents unwanted pressure build-up in this area.
  • the piston 6 is in the working position II and is driven out of the range of the level probe 22.
  • the auxiliary lifting device 5 is in the working position III and is pressed against the seal 23 and is in sealing position with the filling element 11. In the FIG. 3 shown location allows the cleaning of the filling valves
