Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filling element for filling systems or filling machines for filling cans or similar containers according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a filling machine according to the preamble of claim 8.
  • Filling machines for filling, especially for pressure filling of containers in the form of cans with a liquid filling material are known in various designs.
  • a liquid filling material for example, beer, soft drinks, etc.
  • the sealing layer between the respective arranged below a filling element on or on a container carrier container and the filling element by lowering a Abdichttulpe on the container, which then with a seal sealed against the opening edge of the container in question and thereby a ua creates the container opening and the discharge opening of the filling element enclosing, sealed to the outside space.
  • the sealing tulip formed by an annular body is displaceably arranged on a housing section of the filling element housing in the direction of a filling element axis, namely between a raised position and the lowered position.
  • at least one the Golfelementachse concentrically enclosing sliding seal is provided between the annular body of Abdichttulpe and the outer surface of the housing portion. This must be constantly lubricated with water during operation of the filling machine to keep the wear, in particular the sliding seal low. However, it can not be avoided that the water required for lubrication also gets into the containers by dripping, which is increasingly viewed critically by customers or consumers.
  • the publication DE 10 2008 057 752 A1 discloses a filling element for filling containers.
  • the filling element has a first housing part, which at the bottom a boiler is arranged.
  • a return gas pipe is held, which extends with its upper free end into the gas space of the boiler.
  • the filling element has a second housing part, which is movable relative to the first housing part or to the return gas pipe and has on its underside a cone-like seal which is provided for bearing against the container mouth.
  • spring means of the second housing part is biased in a lower stroke position in which the second housing part formed on the dispensing opening is closed by the formed on the return gas tube radial intent or the seal provided there.
  • the second housing part against the spring means When pushing up the container mouth against the seal, the second housing part against the spring means is displaced upwards, whereby the discharge opening is opened and thus the liquid channel is released. Between the first and second housing part, a bellows is provided, via which a flow channel for heating the filling element is separated from the outside in a fluid-tight manner.
  • the publication DE 1 907 283 A1 discloses a filling element for filling containers with a filling tube and a displaceably guided on the filling tube centering tulip.
  • an outlet opening is provided, while the upper end of the filling tube is fixed in a lower part of a filler cock.
  • the centering tulip and the lower part of the filler tap are connected by a bellows.
  • the bellows surrounds the filling tube circumferentially such that a gas-tight space is formed between these elements.
  • this document provides that a gas channel opens into the annular gap, specifically at one of the Abdichttulpe remote end of the annular gap.
  • the object of the invention is to show a filling element, which avoids the sliding seal between the Abdichttulpe and the Greetgeophuse and the disadvantages associated with this seal.
  • a filling element according to the patent claim 1 is formed.
  • a filling machine is the subject of patent claim 5.
  • the lifting movement of the sealing tulip, preferably also designed as a centering tulle, in the filling element axis between the raised starting position and the lowered working position is effected, for example, by means of a tappet, e.g. cam-controlled, wherein the contact pressure with which the Abdichttulpe abuts against the opening edge of the container during filling, is at least partially generated by the biasing and / or filling pressure, possibly supported by a force exerted on the plunger contact pressure.
  • the contact pressure generated by the biasing and filling pressure is essentially determined by the effective diameter of the bellows, taking into account the effective, i. determined by the Abdichttulpe opening cross-section of the container and can be adjusted by appropriate choice of the effective diameter of the bellows. Also by changing the biasing and / or filling pressure, the component of the contact force resulting from this pressure can be adjusted and / or regulated and adapted to the respective container, in particular also to its strength.
  • the invention opens into the annular gap formed between the bellows and the Abdichttulpe and enclosed by these elements housing portion of the Greelementgeophuses, at least one channel in a CIP cleaning and / or sterilization of the filling system for supplying or discharging an example, liquid cleaning - And / or sterilization medium in the annular gap or from this annular gap is used.
  • the channel opens preferably at an upper end of the annular gap in this annular gap, preferably in the region of the local attachment of the bellows.
  • Also according to the invention opens the at least one channel obliquely into the annular gap, in such a way that the emerging from the channel cleaning and / or disinfecting medium flows through the annular gap from top to bottom in a helical flow, which then due to their high flow velocity and their helical course, all the inner surfaces of the bellows and in particular the surfaces within the folds of the bellows are optimally cleaned and / or disinfected.
  • the filling element according to the invention is designed in particular for pressure filling of cans or the like containers and in this case also especially for pressure filling with high performance.
  • pressure filling is generally to be understood as meaning a filling process in which the container to be filled in each case rests in a sealing position against the filling element and, as a rule, before the actual filling phase, i. is biased before opening the liquid valve via at least one controlled, formed in the filling gas path with a pressurized gas clamping gas (inert gas or CO2 gas), which is then displaced during filling of the inflowing the container contents increasingly as return gas from the container interior , also via at least one controlled gas path formed in the filling element.
  • This biasing phase may be preceded by further treatment phases, for example, evacuation and / or flushing of the container interior with an inert gas, e.g. CO2 gas, etc., also via the gas paths formed in the filling element.
  • In sealing position with the filling element befindaji container means in the context of the invention that the respective container to be filled pressed with its container mouth and tightly against the filling element or at the local Abdichttulpe.
  • the filling position 1 includes, inter alia, a filling element 3, which is arranged together with a plurality of similar filling elements on the circumference of a rotor 4 driven circumferentially about a vertical machine axis. Under the filling elements 3, a base 5 is formed on the rotor 4, on which the container to be filled 2 with its bottom stand up.
  • Each filling element 3 comprises a filling element housing 6, in which u.a. a liquid channel 7 is formed for the filling material, which is connected at its upper, not shown in the figure area with a common for all filling elements 3, provided on the rotor 4 and the contents waiting boiler is connected and at the bottom of an annular discharge opening 8 for the contents forms.
  • a liquid valve 9 is provided in the flow direction of the filling material in front of the discharge opening 8, which essentially consists of a valve body 10 cooperating with a valve seat in the liquid channel 7, which is formed in the region of a lower end of a gas pipe 11 serving as a valve stem.

  • the Golfelementgepuruse 6 forms at its lower portion a tubular housing portion 6.1 with a reduced diameter.
  • a Abdichttulpe 13 in the direction of the Artelementachse FA is movably provided (double arrow A).
  • the Abdichttulpe 13 is formed as a housing section enclosing the 6.1 round body 13.1, the front end with a larger outer diameter with an inner, the Golfelementachse FA concentrically enclosing ring seal 14 and with an outer, the ring seal 14 and the Greelementachse FA concentrically enclosing lip seal at a lower ring body portion 13.1 15 is provided.

  • the bellows 16 is made of a suitable elastic and / or flexible material, such as Teflon. As the FIG. 1 also shows, surround both the Abdichttulpe 13 and the bellows 16 the housing portion 6.1 at a distance to form an annular gap 19th
  • annular gap 19 In the upper region of the annular gap 19 formed between the bellows 16 and the outer surface of the housing section 6.1 opens a channel 18, which serves, for example, in a CIP cleaning of the filling machine and the filling elements 3, a liquid cleaning and / or sterilization medium in the annular gap 19 zuzu discussing, which then this annular gap 19 also for the cleaning and / or sterilization of the inner surfaces of the bellows 16 over the entire axial Length flows through.
  • the channel 18 is formed so that it opens obliquely, ie at an angle ⁇ smaller than 90 ° with respect to a plane E perpendicular to Greelementachse FA in the annular gap 19, so that the CIP cleaning and / or disinfecting medium when flowing out of the channel 18th has a velocity vector in the circumferential direction of the outer surface of the housing section 6.1 or about the Greelementachse FA and due to this velocity vector, the annular gap 19 flows through helically from top to bottom.
