Definitions

  • a centering element which is in firm operative connection with the rotary valve is preferably provided, by means of which the load of the rotary valve can be reduced during the self-centering.
  • at least one centering element is provided in a fixed relationship to the rotary valve such that a Displacement of the centering element in the plane of the valve carrier plate is transferable to the rotary valve.
  • the control of the rotary valves is very flexible and independent of the rotational speed of the piston meter. Accordingly, in the case of unforeseen machine-related or system-related stop situations, then open metering unit outlets can be controlled by closing the rotary valves, whereby an uncontrolled idling of the open, in the Ausschiebephase piston metering units can be avoided. Furthermore, the rotary valves can then be controlled as needed.
  • the upper machine part When using the vertical rotary valve with displaceable in the plane of the valve carrier plate assembly, the upper machine part can be moved vertically to the lower machine part for cleaning purposes. Due to the displaceable mounting of the rotary valve, a compensation of bearing tolerances or a compensation of other tolerances, which may also be of thermal origin, can be reduced or avoided either via the use of cross-disk clutches or a floating bearing of the rotary valve drive permanently connected to the rotary valve drive. In particular damage to the rotary valve or the rotary valve unit, comprising the rotary valve drive and the rotary valve housing, for example, by collisions when moving the upper machine part with the lower machine part can be minimized and the axial offset between the two rotating components can be compensated. In this way, wear and damage to the valve unit can be minimized in the current dosing operation.
  • FIG. 1 a device 1 for dosing a filling product into a container is shown in a schematic side view.
  • the device 1 is in FIG. 2 shown again in a schematic perspective view.
  • the device 1 comprises a piston metering unit 2 which has a metering cylinder 20 and a metering piston 22 arranged displaceably therein.
  • a variable volume is provided which serves for sucking and expelling a defined filling product volume.
  • the rotary valve housing 32 can be lifted upwards, so that the rotary valve 30, such as in FIG. 3 shown is freely accessible from all sides.
  • the metering cylinder 20 is for this purpose together with the metering piston 22 and the rotary valve housing 32, which commonly together on a rotating upper machine part O of Device 1 are arranged, deducted towards the top.
  • a lower machine part U of the device 1 which rotates in the metering operation and in particular has a valve carrier plate 4 is not raised or lowered in a preferred embodiment.
  • the upper machine part O and the lower machine part U rotate together in the in the Figures 1 and 2 shown merged arrangement, such that a dosing of the filling product by means of Kolbendosierüen 2 is possible.
  • the filling product can thus be metered into a container to be filled.
  • the rotary valve drive 5 may be a pneumatic, an electropneumatic or a rotary electric valve drive.
  • the use of a pneumatic or an electropneumatic drive 5 has the advantage that a maximum force limitation or a limit of the applicable maximum torque can be achieved by providing the maximum available or provided air pressure. Accordingly, damage to the rotary valve 30 or the surrounding rotary valve housing 32 and / or the drive 5 can be avoided or reduced when unintentionally entering a foreign body into the rotary valve 30.
  • the rotary valve unit 6 is held displaceably in the plane E on the valve carrier plate 4 from the rotary valve 30 and the rotary valve drive 5.
  • game in the plane E the corresponding displacement of the rotary valve 30 with respect to the valve carrier plate 4 can be achieved.
  • the centering or displacement of the rotary valve 30 with respect to the rotary valve housing 32 during the merging can be further supported by means of centering elements 66.
  • the centering elements 66 are connected directly to the receiving body 60 of the rotary valve unit 6, such that a force acting on the centering elements 66 is transmitted immediately to the rotary valve unit 6, which then makes a displacement of the rotary valve 30 according to the possible play on the valve carrier plate 6.
  • the centering elements 66 accordingly have a constant distance from the axis of rotation R of the rotary valve 30 and are aligned parallel thereto.
  • the centering elements 66 are used in the connected state or in the merged state of the upper machine part O with the lower machine part U, including the merged with the rotary valve housing 32 rotary valve 30, also to support the torques occurring in the production operation. Since the rotary valve drive 5 is fixedly connected to the rotary valve 30 via the receiving body 60 and thus forms the rotary valve unit 6, but this rotary valve unit 6 is slidably mounted on the valve carrier plate 4, can apply the respective torques for driving the valve 30 by means of the rotary valve drive 5 a corresponding counter torque occur, which is then supported by the centering elements 66 relative to the rotary valve housing 32.
  • the rotary valve 30 is slidably mounted or floating on the valve support plate 4, the rotary valve drive 5, however, is firmly connected to the valve support plate 4.
  • a cross-plate clutch such as an Oldham coupling
  • the upper machine part O of the piston metering unit 2 can be lifted.
  • the lower machine part U remains in the embodiment shown, however, at the respective position and includes the example in FIG. 3 shown components.
  • a rotary piston dispenser usually at least two, preferably a plurality of Kolbendosiericaen 2 are provided, so that accordingly a plurality of rotary valves 30 are arranged on the valve carrier plate 4.
  • a plurality of rotary valves 30 are arranged on the valve carrier plate 4.
  • the proposed displaceability of the rotary valve 30 in the plane E of the valve carrier plate 4 can be achieved so that each individual rotary valve 30 or its axis of rotation R is aligned individually with respect to the corresponding thereto rotary valve housing 32. In this way, a merging of the upper part O and the lower part U during cleaning or after cleaning significantly easier and the wear or the risk of collision or damage can be significantly reduced.
  • the rotary valve 30 is formed in a particularly preferred embodiment of kolsterêtem stainless steel to increase the surface hardness and to reduce the susceptibility to wear.
