Abstract

Es wird ein Verfahren zum Entleeren von nachgiebigen Gebinden vorgeschlagen, indem das Gebinde in eine Entleereinrichtung überführt, in der Entleereinrichtung aufgeschnitten und das Füllgut aus dem aufgeschnittenen Gebinde in der Entleereinrichtung entleert wird. Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass das nachgiebige Gebinde außerhalb der Entleereinrichtung auf einer Tragplattform positioniert wird, wonach die Tragplattform mit dem Gebinde geführt translatorisch in die Entleereinrichtung hinein verlagert und das Gebinde in der Entleereinrichtung aufgeschnitten wird, wonach die Tragplattform mit dem aufgeschnittenen Gebinde in der Entleereinrichtung um eine Schwenkachse verschwenkt wird, um das Füllgut aus dem aufgeschnittenen Gebinde in der Entleereinrichtung zu entleeren, wonach die Tragplattform translatorisch aus der Entleereinrichtung hinaus verlagert wird. Die Erfindung betrifft ferner eine Vorrichtung zum Entleeren von nachgiebigen Gebinden, welche eine Entleereinrichtung mit einem Gehäuse mit einem in dem Gehäuse angeordneten Schneidmesser sowie eine Überführungseinrichtung umfasst, welche zum Überführen der Gebinde in das Gehäuse der Entleereinrichtung mittels einer Tragplattform ausgebildet ist.

A method for emptying flexible containers is proposed, in which the container is transferred to an emptying device, cut open in the emptying device and the filling material is emptied from the cut open container in the emptying device. The invention provides that the flexible container is positioned outside of the emptying device on a support platform, after which the support platform with the container is guided in a translatory manner into the emptying device and the container is cut open in the emptying device, after which the support platform with the cut open container is in the emptying device is pivoted about a pivot axis in order to empty the contents from the cut container in the emptying device, after which the support platform is displaced in a translatory manner out of the emptying device. The invention also relates to a device for emptying flexible containers, which comprises an emptying device with a housing with a cutting blade arranged in the housing and a transfer device which is designed to transfer the container into the housing of the emptying device by means of a carrying platform.
