Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for changing the jet shape of flowable products, in particular of foods, comprising: an inlet region for the entry of the flowable products, an outlet region for the outlet of the flowable products, and a plurality of channels for the passage of the flowable products, each channel a the inlet region associated inlet and an outlet associated with the outlet region, each inlet of a channel having a first cross-sectional area, and wherein each outlet of a channel has a second cross-sectional area.
  • the invention also relates to the use of such a device for filling food, in particular for the aseptic filling of food.
  • the flowable products may be, for example, foods such as milk, fruit juice, sauces or yoghurt.
  • the flowable products may be, for example, foods such as milk, fruit juice, sauces or yoghurt.
  • composite packaging with layers of cardboard and plastic can be used as packaging.
  • An important step in the filling of the packaging is to fill the flowable products as quickly as possible in the packaging in order to achieve a fast timing and thus high volumes can.
  • the filling should be done largely without spattering and foaming in order to meet the hygienic requirements and to avoid contamination on the packaging or the filling machine.
  • the high requirements can only be met if the filling process is adapted to individual factors such as the properties of the product to be filled and the volume and shape of the packaging.
  • the adjustment regularly includes a setting of the flow rate and the flow rate.
  • the filling nozzle is adapted to the product to be filled and the packaging and optionally replaced. Because the filling nozzle significantly determines the shape and the velocity profile of the filling jet.
  • the filling nozzle is responsible for a drip-free filling. For this purpose, the volume flow before exiting the filling nozzle is often divided into several partial flows, which are passed through individual channels.
  • a filling nozzle for filling food for example, from the EP 2 078 678 A1 known.
  • the filling nozzle shown there has an exchangeable plate with numerous holes.
  • the holes are cylindrically shaped and run parallel to each other in order to produce with the plate a particularly straight filling jet ("flow straightening plate"). While the inlets of the holes lie in a plane, the outlets of the holes are arranged on a curved surface, so that the holes - viewed in the direction of flow - have different lengths.
  • the flow velocity should be influenced. In particular, the flow velocity in the middle of the filling jet should be slowed down more by longer holes and the consequent higher friction than in the edge regions of the filling jet.
  • the from the EP 2 078 678 A1 known filling nozzle has several disadvantages.
  • Another disadvantage is the different length of the holes. Because a curved exit region of the plate causes the partial flows of the product to be filled at different times detach from the underside of the plate and are also exposed to a different size drop height to the bottom of the package. Those partial streams that are passed through shorter holes and earlier detach from the underside of the plate, are earlier exposed to a fall acceleration than those partial streams, which are still in the longer holes at this time.
  • the device according to the invention is initially characterized by an inlet region for the entry of the flowable products and by an outlet region for the outlet of the flowable products. Between the inlet area and the outlet area are several channels for the passage of the flowable products arranged. Each of the channels has an inlet associated with the entrance area. In addition, each of the channels has an outlet associated with the exit area. Each inlet has a first cross-sectional area and each outlet has a second cross-sectional area.
  • the second cross-sectional area of at least one channel is greater than the first cross-sectional area of this channel.
  • the second cross-sectional area of each channel is greater than the first cross-sectional area of that channel.
  • the cross-sectional area of the channels increases in the flow direction, ie from the inlet in the direction of the outlet. According to the laws of fluid mechanics, in particular the law of Bernoulli, an increase in the cross-sectional area leads to a proportional decrease in the flow velocity.
  • the inventive design of the channels thus leads to a slowing down of the flowing part of the channel flow.
  • the quotient of the first cross-sectional area and the second cross-sectional area is therefore always smaller than one and represents a measure of the degree of deceleration.
  • This quotient can therefore also be referred to as a "deceleration factor”; its reciprocal can be referred to as "acceleration factor”.
  • the device according to the invention may for example be made of metal, in particular of steel, preferably stainless steel.
  • the channels may be drilled by deep drilling or cut by wire eroding.
  • the enlargement of the cross-sectional area can take place uniformly and in particular steadily and / or monotonously according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • the continuous and / or monotonous enlargement of the cross-sectional area can take place in at least one channel or, preferably, in all channels.
  • a continuous enlargement is understood to mean an enlargement without abrupt changes in the cross-sectional area.
  • a monotone enlargement of the cross-sectional area means that the cross-sectional area in the direction of flow does not shrink at any time, but either remains the same or increases throughout. This can be achieved for example by cone-shaped channel walls.
  • An embodiment of the invention provides that the quotient of the sum of the first cross-sectional areas of all channels and the sum of the second cross-sectional areas of all channels is in the range between 0.35 and 0.75. This means that the total cross-sectional area at the inlet of the channels is only about 35% to 75% of the total cross-sectional area at the outlet of the channels. There is therefore a significant increase in the total cross-sectional area in the flow direction and thus a slowing down of the entire flow. According to an embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the quotient of the first cross-sectional area and the second cross-sectional area in each channel is in the range between 0.35 and 0.75.
  • the off-center channels have a distance from the central axis of the device and that the quotient of the first cross-sectional area and the second cross-sectional area decreases with increasing distance of the off-center channels to the central axis of the device, in particular decreases steadily or monotonically.
  • an off-center channel is meant any channel which does not run along the central axis of the device.
  • the quotient of the first cross-sectional area and the second cross-sectional area - ie the deceleration factor - in the outside lying channels is smaller than in the more inward channels.
  • the flow should therefore be slowed down more in the outer channels than in the more inward channels.
  • the further down the channel the lower the deceleration factor.
  • the inlets and / or the outlets of the off-center channels are arranged in a circle on rings around the central axis of the device.
  • a plurality of channels can be arranged such that their inlets and / or their outlets are equidistant from the central axis.
  • the quotients of the first cross-sectional area and the second cross-sectional area are identical for all off-center channels of the same ring. This means that those partial flows which are equidistant from the central axis are also slowed down at the same rate. In this way, a filling jet with a symmetrical velocity profile can be generated.
  • the quotients of the first cross-sectional area and the second cross-sectional area decrease with increasing distance of the ring to the central axis of the device, in particular drop steadily or monotonically.
  • the inlets and the outlets of the channels are arranged in one plane.
  • the arrangement of the inlets in a plane has the advantage that all inlets simultaneously through a can be safely sealed particularly simple shaped, in particular by a flat sealing element.
  • the arrangement of the outlets in a plane has the advantage that all partial flows simultaneously detach from the underside of the device and thus at the same time be exposed to the acceleration of gravity.
  • the plane in which the inlets of the channels are arranged is parallel to the plane in which the outlets of the channels are arranged.
  • This has - at least in straight channels - the advantage that the channels are the same length and thus the friction-induced slowdown of the partial flows in all channels is about the same size.
  • the inlets and / or the outlets of the channels are arranged point-symmetrically or axially symmetrically. By a symmetrical distribution of the inlets and / or outlets a uniform, low turbulence distribution of the flow and a symmetrical filling jet are achieved.
  • the invention provides that the number of channels is at least 50 and in particular in the range between 100 and 150.
  • the total flow is to be divided according to this development into a particularly high number of partial flows.
  • This has the advantage that the speed and direction of this partial flow can be set individually for each partial flow, so that even complex shapes and velocity profiles of the filler jet can be achieved.
  • a high number of channels leads to a larger contact area between the flow and the channel, which reduces the risk of dripping if the filling is interrupted due to the capillary action.
  • the channels in the region of their outlets are separated from one another by webs whose thickness is 0.3 mm or less.
  • the thickness of the webs is even 0.2 mm or less.
  • the partial flows After emerging from the device, the partial flows should reunite to form a total flow, the air as possible no air pockets having. This process is assisted by particularly thin webs at the outlets of the channels, since the closely adjacent sub-streams can quickly merge into a total flow due to attractive forces.
  • the central axes of the off-center channels are arranged inclined with respect to the central axis of the device by an inclination angle. Due to the inclination of the off-center channels, the partial flows in these channels can also receive a horizontal pulse in addition to a vertical pulse. This allows a particularly variable design of the shape of the filling jet.
  • the affected channels may be inclined outwards or inwards, viewed in the flow direction. An outward inclination spreads or divides the filling jet and directs it laterally against the walls of the packaging. In this way, the packaging is particularly gentle and largely filled without foaming. An inward inclination, however, allows a particularly sharp, concentrated filling jet.
  • the inclination angle is in the range between 1 ° and 6 °.
  • the angle of inclination is the angle which is established between the central axis of the device and the central axis of the corresponding channel.
  • the specified range may in turn relate to an outward inclination or an inward inclination.
  • the inclination angle of the off-center channels increases with increasing distance of the channels to the central axis of the device, in particular increases steadily or monotonically.
  • the inclination of the channels should therefore be the greater the further out the channel is arranged.
  • the stronger inclination of the outer channels is particularly advantageous when tilting inwards, since in this way a particularly slender, concentrated filling jet can be achieved.
  • the device described above can be used in all illustrated embodiments especially good for filling food, especially for aseptic filling of food.
  • the foods may be, for example, milk, fruit juice, sauces or yoghurt.
