Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container treatment machine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • an empty PET container is transferred to a labeling carousel via a neck-handling infeed star.
  • the container is clamped axially between the centering element of the centering head and a bottle plate and is stabilized in shape, for example, by means of compressed air.
  • the container is transferred to a neck-handling discharge star.
  • the container neck or an optionally provided support ring of the container must be at a predetermined transfer level relative to the outlet star, otherwise the transfer in the outlet star does not work.
  • the container is centered in the container neck area via a centering element on an optionally provided centering plate, and is stabilized for labeling by the application of compressed air.
  • the centering element and the centering plate are interchangeable set-up parts.
  • the centering head carries a pull-off sleeve which, when actuated, releases the clamped container after labeling for transfer to the outlet.
  • the container treatment machine is contained in a block in which a stretch blow molding machine is provided upstream and a filler is provided downstream.
  • the infeed and outfeed transport lines are either star wheels or linear conveyors. Additional devices for holding and / or centering the container or for taking over or transferring it are not provided in the labeling carousel.
  • a transfer level from the inlet into the machine and from the machine into an outlet is established by a transport shoe and one for the transport shoe provided recess defined in the turntable.
  • the container is held in a certain rotating and height position by the interaction of a clamp and a tulip. This position results from the fact that a guide track pushes the container into the tulip via the transport shoe.
  • the tulip is in a predetermined clamping position and cannot be adjusted in height.
  • the clip of the holding device on the tulip also has a predetermined position.
  • the invention is based on the object of improving a container treatment machine of the type mentioned at the outset with regard to the neck handling of the container regardless of any changes in height of the container during the manipulations. Part of the task is also a structural simplification of the container treatment machine.
  • the active neck clamp not only additionally secures the container during its manipulation between the inlet and outlet transport routes, but also actively brings the container back to the predetermined transfer level before it is transferred to the outlet transport route, regardless of any container deformations that may have occurred, so that the transfer to the outfeed transport line is carried out properly.
  • the centering element which acts on the container mouth, aligns the container with its central axis exactly perpendicularly.
  • the container is brought directly onto the container plate or into a container plate sink by means of the centering element and the entrainment of the neck clamp. It is therefore no longer necessary to lift the container plate, which means that there is no need for complex mechanical lifting units for the container plate. Since the neck clamp already helps with the takeover, there is no need for complex inlet fittings.
  • the neck clamp attached to a star takes over the container properly from the infeed transport path, for example an infeed star with active neck handling clamps.
  • the neck clamp may be temporarily opened in order to release the clamped container for subsequent rotation.
  • the container are pressed together by the clamping and change its height, so the neck clamp carried along by the centering element is lowered accordingly.
  • the neck clamp is closed again in order to hold the container before the centering element is lifted off the container mouth.
  • the motion control then raises the neck clamp with the gripped container back to the prescribed transfer level before it is transferred.
  • the active adjustment of the neck clamp in the assembly means that the container plate does not need to be lifted.
  • the neck clamp can be equipped with rollers. As a result, the container treatment machine works with constant reliability regardless of the nature and / or stability of the containers being treated.
  • the neck clamp is expediently arranged with a movement guide in a holder of the assembly that optionally defines the transfer level directly or indirectly and is adjustable relative to the holder.
  • the neck clamp can then only move strictly in the direction of movement of the centering element, which is also guided in the holder.
  • the centering element or the movement guide of the neck clamp has at least one that extends transversely to the adjustment directions of the centering element and neck clamp and a stop of the movement guide of the neck clamp or the centering element aligned driver.
  • the driver thus transmits at least part of the adjustment movement of the centering element, preferably in the direction of the clamping position, synchronously to the neck clamp holding the container. This eliminates the need for a separate adjusting drive for this adjusting movement of the neck clamp.
  • a separate drive could alternatively be used for the neck clamp, which works synchronously with the movement of the centering element.
  • an idle stroke is set between the driver and the stop.
  • the idle stroke is, for example, conveniently dimensioned so that the centering element only takes the neck clamp with it when the centering element essentially comes into force-transmitting contact with the mouth of the container.
  • the idle stroke ensures that the centering element is sufficiently far outside the path of movement of the container mouth in the passive position when the container is taken over or transferred by the neck clamp.
  • the centering element is expediently designed as an inflation device for applying pressure to the container which is in the clamping position and held by the neck clamp.
  • pressure for example with compressed air or sterile air
  • the dimensional stability of the container is temporarily increased during the treatment.
  • the motion control of the neck clamp has at least one, preferably pretensioned, spring element which acts on the neck clamp in the adjustment direction to the transfer level.
  • a motion drive could be provided for this.
  • the spring element brings the neck clamp with the container held by it back to the correct transfer level, regardless of the synchronous or leading return movement of the centering element to the passive position.
  • the spring element for adjusting the neck clamp is arranged on a bolt that can be adjusted with the neck clamp and penetrates a transverse yoke of the movement guide.
  • the bolt has a stop which interacts with the cross yoke. This stop ensures that the neck clamp is not clamped on the bracket.
  • at least one exchangeable spacer element can also be provided.
  • the motion control can have a catch curve in addition to the spring element, which, preferably, also defines the transfer level and at least during the adjustment of the centering element for passive position interacts with a button connected to the neck clamp, for example a roller running on the catch curve.
  • the centering head is arranged in a guide and, preferably secured against rotation, in a linearly movable manner on the holder and is adjusted relative to the holder by a linear drive together with the centering element.
  • the centering element can even be driven to rotate in order to set the container in rotation. If the rotation of the container is generated, for example, via the container plate, the centering element can be arranged freely rotatable relative to the centering head. A ball bearing is ideal for this. Alternatively, only the centering element could be adjusted relative to the centering head by the linear drive.
  • the linear drive has a stationary lowering curve for a button arranged on the centering head, e.g. B. a roller, and at least one return spring acting for the passive position, which, preferably, is installed between a stop of the guide and the centering head.
  • the return spring holds the button on the lowering curve so that the centering head or the centering element is properly returned to the passive position.
  • the possible adjustment path of the centering element relative to the holder and for actively transferring the container onto the container plate and for centering the container on the container plate is expediently longer than the distance between the holder and the stationary between the inlet and outlet transport routes, at least when the container is being manipulated Container plate. This measure also determines the clamping of the container during treatment.
  • the container plate expediently has a centering depression for centering.
  • the neck clamp comprises two gripping arms which can be pivoted apart in a controlled manner against spring or magnetic force. If the neck clamp is equipped with rollers, these rollers act on the inside of the gripping arms to allow the container to rotate despite the neck clamp being closed.
  • the gripping arms are pivoted apart, for example, by means of a cam.
  • the assembly is favorably arranged with other similar ones in a carousel of a labeling or printing machine.
  • the infeed and outfeed transport routes can be either clamp-fitted stars or air conveyors, among other things.
  • the carousel can be incorporated into an independent labeling and / or printing machine that works between the inlet and outlet transport routes.
  • the labeling and / or printing machine is particularly expediently contained in a block which comprises a container stretch blow molding machine upstream and a filling machine downstream, with stars in between each being provided with brackets.
  • the linear drive of the centering element or centering head is double-acting and comprises at least one force and / or displacement sensor for detecting actuating and / or holding forces of the linear drive and / or current positions of the centering element and / or the neck clamp and to report them to a higher-level controller.
  • This principle is off EP 2 258 623 B1 known.
  • the container handling machine is in all common on the market bottle tables such.
  • the active lowering and centering of the container on the container plate is an important aspect, because otherwise common guide sets can be at least partially simplified or completely omitted.
  • the container to be treated which is preferably an empty PET bottle, expediently has a support ring on the container neck.
  • the neck clamp engages the container neck, for example on the side of the support ring facing the container mouth and immediately adjacent to it.
  • the neck clamp is equipped with rollers on the gripping arms that hold the container neck and roll on the container neck when the container rotates.
  • rollers on the gripping arms that hold the container neck and roll on the container neck when the container rotates.
  • two small plastic rollers are sufficient here.
  • the neck clamp no longer needs to be opened when the container rotates, but at most when it is taken over and / or transferred.
  • Also disclosed here is a method for treating containers in a continuous flow in a container treatment machine, in which method each container is temporarily clamped in the direction of its longitudinal axis in the flow and deformations of the container in the direction of the longitudinal axis cannot be ruled out due to the clamping can cause difficulties during the discharge of the container due to height deviations.
  • the discharge conditions are compensated for despite possible container deformations by moving a neck clamp holding the container neck in the direction of clamping with the container contents, which actively brings the container back to the predetermined transfer level before the discharge and thus for a correct transfer and correct discharge conditions cares.
  • the method is therefore independent of the dimensional stability of the container being treated and uses the fact that the preformed container neck area is sufficiently resistant to deformations that may result from clamping and that deformations only occur in other areas of the container and not in the container neck area where the neck brace engages.
  • the Figs. 1 to 4 indicate at least part of an assembly B, which is part of a container handling machine, for example as a non-limiting field of application of a carousel a labeling machine and / or printing machine for applying labels, prints, logos or the like to container 1, in particular empty PET bottles.
  • the container handling machine containing at least one such assembly B can be operated as an independent machine, or can be incorporated in a block which z. B. includes a stretch blow molding machine upstream and a filler downstream, possibly even a closer.
  • the containers 1 are treated continuously and conveyed according to the neck handling principle.
  • the container treatment machine in the carousel for example, a series of identical assemblies B having inlet and outlet transport routes E, A, z. B.
  • each assembly B can peripherally and adjacent to the path of movement of each assembly B at least one labeling unit, for. B. a control module for wrap-around labels, (or a printing unit, for example with an inkjet printer) and possibly a module for rolling on the applied labels.
  • a container 1 that has been taken over is clamped in the direction of its longitudinal axis for the treatment and is held in the container neck region by a neck clamp 2.
  • the clamping is carried out by a driven centering element 3 which is movable in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the container and which engages the container mouth and pushes the container against an in Fig. 1 container plate not shown ( Figs. 2 to 4 indicated by the reference numeral 20) applies with pressure.
  • the clamped container 1 is optionally acted upon with compressed air via the centering element 3 to increase its dimensional stability for the treatment.
  • the neck clamp 2 which is movably mounted parallel to the centering element 3 on guide rods 12, is supported by at least one spring element 4 in Fig. 1 acted upon in the upward direction.

  • the linear drive comprises, for example, a button 6 arranged on the centering head 5, typically a roller, which interacts with a stationary lowering curve 15 during the rotary movement of the carousel.
  • the assembly B for the centering element 3 could have an independent linear drive which, if necessary, works double-acting.
  • a linear drive can also be provided for the neck clamp 2 which, when the centering head 5 is in its uppermost position, lifts the neck clamp 2, which is guided by the guide rods 12, even if the spring elements 4 break, for example a button 7, for example a roller, arranged on a bracket connecting the guide rods 12 interacts with a stationary catch cam 16. With properly working spring elements 4, the catch curve 16 does not need to intervene.
  • guide rods 11 are arranged on the upper part. Furthermore, a bolt 10 provided in the upper part 14 to prevent rotation is integrated into the assembly B.
  • a driver 13 is connected, which extends transversely to the directions of movement of the neck clamp 2 and the centering element 3 in this embodiment above the upper part 14 and thus interacts with the bracket connecting the guide rods 12 that the neck clamp 2 must follow the adjustment of the centering element 3 against the force of the spring elements 4, at least over the end phase of the adjustment path into the clamping position shown.
  • the neck clamp 2 is opened, for example, by a rocker switch 8 using a cam (not shown) or a rotary drive, and is opened by spring or magnetic force (in Fig. 1 not shown) brought into the gripping position shown.
  • the Figs. 2 to 4 show a detailed variant of the assembly B with essentially the same function as the embodiment in FIG Fig. 1 .
  • the neck clamp 2 which in the embodiment shown has two gripping jaws 2a, 2b pivotable in opposite directions on a carrier 25 attached to the guide rods 12, is opened by a cam 23 via the rocker switch 8 against the force of a spring 22, for example around the container 1 to be able to rotate around its longitudinal axis in the clamped state.
  • the container neck area can be equipped with a support ring 19 below an external thread.
  • the neck clamp 2 is positioned in such a way that it engages the side of the support ring 19 facing the container mouth and directly adjacent to it.
  • the centering element 3 which can for example have a ball-bearing and thus freely rotatable, conical lower part 3 a, dips into Fig. 3 into the container mouth 1 and, via the driver 13, presses the neck clamp 2 and the container 1 in the direction of and finally against the container plate 20, which is preferably formed with a container plate depression 21 serving for centering.
