Definitions

  • the present invention may be also used to particular advantage for any type of container, such as containers or bottles made of glass, plastics, aluminum, steel and composites, and for any type of pourable product, such as non-carbonated liquids (including still water, juices, teas, sport drinks, liquid cleaners, wine, etc), emulsions, suspensions, high viscosity liquids and beverages containing pulps.
  • container such as containers or bottles made of glass, plastics, aluminum, steel and composites
  • pourable product such as non-carbonated liquids (including still water, juices, teas, sport drinks, liquid cleaners, wine, etc), emulsions, suspensions, high viscosity liquids and beverages containing pulps.
  • the second conveying carousel is configured to act as a filling conveyor comprising a plurality of filling units and adapted to fill the empty bottles with the pourable product.
  • Each filling unit comprises a filling head adapted to fill the respective empty container with the pourable product during advancement along the path from the first transfer position to the second transfer position.
  • the filling carousel further comprises supply means configured to direct the pourable product from a product reservoir to the plurality of filling units and, accordingly, to the respective filling heads.
  • Each filling head comprises an inlet conduit, adapted to receive the pourable product from the supply means, and a filling tube connected to the inlet conduit and adapted to feed the pourable product into the respective container.
  • each inlet conduit cooperates with a respective valve configured to selectively allow or prevent flow of the pourable product towards the container to be filled.
  • Each filling tube typically has a cylindrical configuration and crosses, with radial play, an outlet mouth of the relative filling head, adapted to close a pouring/inlet opening of the container during filling thereof.
  • a common problem posed in respect of known filling machines is the formation of foam during, and at the end of, the operation of filling each container.
  • Some filling machines reduce the temperature of the liquid to reduce foaming.
  • Number 1 in Figure 1 indicates as a whole a machine for filling containers, in particular bottles 2, with pourable products, in the example shown carbonated liquids, such as sparkling water or carbonated beverages, including soft drinks and beer.
  • each bottle 2 when received in a relative filling unit 13, each bottle 2 rests with its bottom wall 4 on the relative support plate 12 and extends vertically from the latter.
  • hollow body 15 of filling head 13 terminates towards the relative support plate 12 with an outlet mouth 19 configured to close pouring/inlet opening 6 of the respective bottle 2 during filling thereof.
  • Filling head 13 further comprises a filling tube 17 coaxially mounted through a bottom part of opening 16 of main body 15 and crossing with radial play outlet mouth 19 to feed the pourable product into the relative bottle 2.
  • Outlet portion 29 of filling tube 17 presents a cylinder-like shape delimited by an inner and an outer cylindrical surface 33, 34. More specifically, outlet portion 29 has an inner diameter ID2 and an outer diameter OD2.
  • filling tube 17 has a radially widened outlet portion 29.
  • filling tube 17, and in particular intermediate portion 30 and outlet portion 29 thereof, are configured so that, in use, the flow speed of the pourable product decreases by proceeding towards the relative bottle 2.
  • the flow rate of the pourable product moving through the filling tube 17 is maintained constant at the various sections thereof.
