- the liquid filling apparatus 03 described above fills the first container 3 with a carbonated beverage by sequentially performing the following processes.
- a clean-in-place (CIP) cap 40 (hereinafter, referred to as a CIP cap 40) is attached to the tip end of the filling valve 100 so as to allow a cleaning liquid to be circulated in the flow passage 102.
- the CIP cap 40 seals the opening of the tip end of the filling valve 100, and thus the cleaning liquid is not discharged to the outside from the filling valve 100.
- the inside of the filling valve 100 is cleaned.
- the CIP cap 40 is detached and the cleaning liquid is discharged to the outside. Thereafter, the cleaning liquid is washed away and air is blown thereinto, such that the remaining liquid in the flow passage 102 is discharged to the outside.
- the pressure drain process is performed at a saturated vapor pressure according to the amount of carbon dioxide contained in the beverage 31.
- a bubble removing process is performed to remove the bubbles generated at the throttle 110.
- the bubble removing process is a feature of this embodiment.
- the pressure of the inside of the filling valve 100 is increased to a pressure at which the beverage is filled (hereinafter, filling pressure).
- filling pressure a pressure at which the beverage is filled
- the CIP cap 40 obstruction body used in the cleaning process is attached to the tip end of the filling valve 100.
- the opening of the tip end of the filling valve 100 is then obstructed by the CIP cap 40 such that the inside of the filling valve 100 (the flow passage 102) is sealed.
- the counter valve 35 is opened. Therefore, the pressure of the gas phase of the liquid storage tank 30 becomes equal to the pressure of the inside of the filling valve 100, and thus the filling pressure is also applied to the liquid valve 103 from the CIP cap 40.
- the liquid valve 103 is opened and is maintained in this state for a predetermined time.
- the pressure on the beverage 31 from the gas phase of the liquid storage tank 30 and the pressure thereon from the CIP cap 40 side become equal to each other. That is, the pressure on the beverage 31 from the upper side and the pressure thereon from the lower side become equal to each other, and thus bubbles in the flow passage 102 rise due to their buoyancy and move to the gas phase of the liquid storage tank 30.
- a time during which the liquid valve 103 is opened that is, a time for removing the bubbles, varies depending on the type of the beverage. Therefore, data in which the time for removing bubbles is associated with the types of beverages may be stored in advance to set the predetermined time.
- the container 3 Prior to the filling of the beverage, the container 3 is attached to the tip end of the filling valve 100.
- the counter valve 35 is opened to allow the inside of the container 3 to have the same pressure as that of the gas phase of the liquid storage tank 30. Since the same pressure is achieved, the formation of bubbles during the filling of the beverage 31 can be prevented.
- the container 3 is filled with the beverage 31 via the filling nozzle 15.
- the filling amount may be set in advance by a flow rate controller (not illustrated) of the filling valve.
- the container 3 can be filled with the beverage 31 without including the generated bubbles. Accordingly, the container 3 can be filled with a set regular filling amount of the beverage 31.
- the bubble removing process according to this embodiment is particularly effective in filling of a carbonated beverage having a low sugar content.
- the size of the generated bubbles is influenced by the sugar content, and the bubbles are increased in size as the sugar content is decreased. However, large bubbles are less likely to be dissolved in the beverage 31, and remain as they are.
- the bubble removing process of this embodiment since the CIP cap 40 included in the liquid filling apparatus 03 is used, there is no need to add a new member. Therefore, the bubble removing process can be performed by the existing liquid filling apparatus 03.
- bubbles generated at the throttle 110 are removed by adjusting the opening of the throttle 110 (the opening of the liquid valve 103).
- the CIP cap 40 is attached to the tip end of the filling valve 100 so as to clean the flow passage 102 using the cleaning liquid.
- the CIP cap 40 is detached, the cleaning liquid is washed away, and air is blown thereinto, such that the remaining liquid in the flow passage 102 is discharged to the outside.
- the liquid valve 103 is closed, and thus a region R1 is substantially sealed. Therefore, bubbles stay between the tapered portion 108 and the flow passage 102.
- the liquid valve 103 is opened. Therefore, a region R2 is formed between the flow rate adjusting portion 109 and the tapered portion 108.
- the bubbles move upward in the arrow H direction through a gap P due to the buoyancy and move to the gas phase of the liquid storage tank 30. Therefore, the generated bubbles are removed from the throttle 110.
- the state of the rod 104 being pulled upward is maintained for a predetermined time, and the process is transited to the beverage filling process.
- the predetermined distance is the minimum distance for passing the bubbles.
- the container 3 is attached to the tip end of the filling valve 100.
- the counter valve 35 is opened to allow the inside of the container 3 to have the same pressure as that of the gas phase of the liquid storage tank 30.
- the container 3 is filled with the beverage 31 via the filling nozzle 15.
- the bubbles generated at the throttle 110 are removed in the bubble removing process, and thus the container 3 can be filled with a set regular filling amount of the beverage 31.
- bubbles can be removed only by adjusting the opening of the liquid valve 103 without the use of another member (for example, the CIP cap 40 in the first embodiment). Therefore, there is no need to clean the member after the end of the beverage filling. Accordingly, time and effort for the operation can be saved.
- the beverage is filled by the following processes.
- the same processes as those of the above-described embodiments are concisely described, and differences therefrom are mainly described.
- the CIP cap 40 is attached to the tip end of the filling nozzle 15 so as to clean the flow passage 102 using the cleaning liquid.
- the CIP cap 40 is detached, the cleaning liquid is washed away, and air is blown thereinto, such that the remaining liquid in the flow passage 102 is discharged to the outside.
- the container 3 is attached to the tip end of the filling valve 100, and filling of the beverage through the filling nozzle 15 is performed.
- the filling amount of the beverage is set on the basis of a database.
- a database regarding an insufficient filling amount is generated for the types (A, B, C %) of the filling beverage 31.
- the insufficient filling amount can be determined by several methods.
- the volume of bubbles generated at the throttle 110 is significantly dependent on the amount of carbon dioxide contained in the beverage 31 and the sugar content
- the amount of carbon dioxide contained in the beverage 31 and the value of the sugar content are measured in advance, and the volume of the bubbles, that is, the insufficient filling amount, are calculated.
- the container 3 is filled with a predetermined amount of the beverage 31, and the weight of the container 3 after the filling is measured. From the difference between the weights, the insufficient filling amount is calculated.
- the insufficient filling amount calculated as described above is stored in a database as a set value for each of the types of beverages.
- the set value of the database is set as the filling amount of the beverage. In this manner, the container 3 is filled with the set filling amount, that is, the regular filling amount of the beverage 31.
- the volume of bubbles incorporated into the container 3 is calculated in advance, and a corresponding amount to the volume is added to the regular filling amount to perform filling. Therefore, a filling amount which is insufficient due to the incorporation of the bubbles can be compensated for, and thus the container 3 can be filled with the regular filling amount of the beverage 31.
- the set value may be used as the filling amount on the basis of the database, and thus another operation is unnecessary. Therefore, time and effort is not needed for the filling operation.
- the inside of the filling valve 100 only needs to be sealed. Therefore, by providing a member which can seal the tip end of the filling valve 100 other than the CIP cap 40, the effects of the present invention can be exhibited.
- the database may also be created by calculating the insufficient filling amount from the relationship between the size of the bubbles and the temperature of the filling beverage 31.
