Description

DESCRIPTION

Method and system for moving a fluid from a supply container to a delivery component

The invention relates to a method for moving a fluid from a supply container to a delivery component, in particular to a surge tank. The invention also relates to a system for moving a fluid from a supply container to a delivery component, in particular to a surge tank, particularly applying the method according to the invention and, more particularly, for use in industrial laundry, as for example in an industrial textile laundry.

When storage tanks, also called surge tanks, are filled at a location with fluids, such as detergents or liquid bleaching agents, from mobile supply containers (bulk), also called transport packaging, in particular transport tanks It is extremely important that the correct fluid goes to the correct compensation tank, on the one hand to avoid contamination of the fluid and on the other to avoid dangerous situations as a consequence of the reaction of the fluids with each other. Here it is possible to consider the coupling of each supply container (bulk) to an associated surge tank by means of a single coupling, so that a supply container (bulk) can be prevented from being coupled to the wrong surge tank, although this option is relatively time-consuming and expensive and is therefore generally not recommended from a practical point of view, since simplicity and standardization are particular goals in practice. An example of such a system has already been described in the international publication WO 2012/031323 A1, in which various supply containers (bulk) can be coupled to various surge tanks. To avoid dangerous situations as a result of unwanted docking, identifiers are used that are read during docking of a supply container (bulk) and a surge tank. Fluid transport will only occur if proper coupling is detected.

The identification of various identifiers in order to avoid unwanted couplings is also described in the international publication WO 03/086952 A1, in which the supply containers, the lines and the surge tanks are provided with a label that includes specific information of the product. During the coupling of the various components it will be possible to read a code, which is compared with a code previously stored in a database. If the code matches, fluid displacement will occur.

Another standardization and simplification of moving fluids from a supply container (bulk) to a surge tank at one location is the application of only one shared (universal) transfer conduit. While using a shared transfer conduit to couple a supply container (bulk) to a surge tank enhances the desired simplicity, it does not, however, prevent the transfer conduit from being attached to the wrong supply container and / or or to the wrong surge tank, whereby fluid contamination occurs during the transfer process, which is undesirable and can even result in dangerous situations.

The invention has for its object to provide an improved method of moving a fluid from a supply container (bulk) to a delivery component in a relatively simple manner, in which the possibility of contamination of the fluid is considerably reduced.

The invention provides for this purpose a method according to claim 1. The method according to the invention relates to maintaining control over which fluids can be guided through the at least one coupling component to a delivery component, formed in particular by a surge tank, and in what condition (s). The method according to the invention relates more particularly to verifying whether the at least one coupling component is correctly coupled to an adjacent component, so that at least this part of the transfer process can be carried out in a supervised manner, thereby avoiding the possibility of fluid displacement through poorly connected coupling components.

Therefore, a primary check takes place to prevent misconnection of the coupling components, and hence the guiding of the fluid through improperly connected coupling components, whereby contamination of a coupling component can be avoided. delivered with a fluid that was not intended for this delivery component, in particular this surge tank. The at least one coupling component will be identified here during selection, after which the identification element connected to the coupling component will be programmed (depending on the purpose, particularly depending on the fluid), wherein after coupling of the coupling component A final check is made by verifying the coupling made, and only if this coupling is verified successfully, then will the actual transfer of fluid from the supply container to the delivery component take place.

When at least two identification components are coupled, a unique combination of identities is created, and a unique combination of unique identity codes, which combination of codes can be verified during step D), is linked thereto. This created code combination will generally be compared to a pre-generated code combination which, for example, is stored in a database and, if they match, coupling will be allowed in that case. Thus, a coupling component formed by a conduit ABC will be applied, for example, in order to transport a fluid X from a supply container 123 to a delivery component, such as a surge tank 456. The conduit may, for example, be assigned the code X, ABCX, ABC123, ABC456 or ABC123456, so the coupling between the supply container and the conduit can result in the combination code (composite code) 123-X and the coupling between the conduit and the buffer tank X-456, in base upon which a verification can be performed during step D).

Optionally, here also a check will be carried out during step D) whether the supply container and the surge tank coincide with each other. In the example indicated above it would then be verified if the code combination 123-456 is a permitted code combination and / or if the two containers are configured to contain the same fluid X. More details of this last optional addition will be clarified later.

The method according to the invention preferably takes place at a location (end location) where the fluid will also be used, such as in an industrial textile laundry. The supply container (bulk) is mobile and is usually temporarily placed at this location, usually carried by a vehicle. The supply container can be of a very diverse nature and, for example, it can be formed by a metal or plastic tank placed in a vehicle, although the supply container can also be formed, for example, by a reserve can.

The term "fluid" should be interpreted broadly in the context of this patent document; the fluid can also comprise solid or gaseous components and can also be made up of a mixture of various fluids.

The at least one applied coupling component is generally shared in nature, that is, this coupling component is configured to be coupled (successively) directly or indirectly to a plurality of surge tanks and a plurality of supply vessels, at least within from a certain location. This universal characteristic makes it possible to limit the number of coupling components to a minimum, which is advantageous from an economic and logistical point of view.

The coupling component is formed, for example, by a pump (for forced movement of fluid from the supply container to the delivery component), a shut-off valve or a conduit. The conduit can be connected here to the supply container and can also be inserted at least partially, for example as a lance, into the supply container.

In practice a plurality of coupling components are commonly applied which are mutually connected in series to allow a connection to be made between the supply container and a surge tank. Each coupling component will here preferably be individually identified, programmed for the specific transfer purpose, coupled and identified once more as a final check to allow identification of the couplings between the coupling components, after which the Fluid will flow from the supply container to the surge tank if this check is successful.

Generally, the fluid will be guided through the at least one coupling component and thus will flow through the at least one coupling component. However, it is also possible to contemplate that the at least one coupling component comes into contact with the fluid in another way, for example because the fluid can also flow around a coupling component instead of flowing through it or in addition to flow through it.

The delivery component is configured to receive fluid carried by the supply container through the at least one coupling component, wherein the delivery component is, as noted, preferably formed by a surge tank. This surge tank is a local supply container (on-site) from which the fluid can be used, for example, for use, for example, in an industrial textile laundry or for other (cleaning) purposes. However, the delivery component can also be made up of a different type of delivery component that is not configured primarily for storage of the fluid, but generally for the flow (and direct delivery) of the fluid. An example of this different type of delivery opening is a nozzle, a metering pump and / or a (transport) pump, through which fluid can be delivered, for example, to a washing chamber of an industrial textile laundry. . When referring to a surge tank below, it is also possible to contemplate replacing this surge tank with another type of delivery component.

The identification of the supply container and / or the delivery component according to step A) preferably takes place by scanning a label connected respectively to the supply container and the delivery component, which label comprises information related to the fluid. The label preferably comprises a "static" identification means provided with static information. The tag is possibly provided by a supplier or manufacturer of the supply container and / or the delivery component with a "dynamic" means of identification, where the tag is (re) programmable. The label can be formed by a dynamic identification means such as an RFID tag or a static identification means such as a barcode and / or a two-dimensional barcode, in particular a QR code (both static).

The label present on the supply container and / or the delivery component may comprise direct information from which the identity of the fluid can be derived. However, it is also possible to contemplate that the label comprises information leading to a digital location. The identity of the fluid will here preferably be determined during or after the tag scan by retrieving data identifying the fluid from a database based on the scanned information. This database can be installed locally, installed locally with a third party and / or installed on a web server (in the cloud). Table 1 shows an example of a record (cross-reference) from the database:

Table 1. Register for programmed identification code: ABC1234X1XYZ

Both the delivery container and the delivery component are preferably identified during step A). The delivery container and delivery component may each have their own (different) identification code. The fluid that is stored in the supply container and that has to be transported to the delivery component, preferably by means of a pump, generally has substantially the same identity. Preferably, during step D) it is also checked whether fluid is allowed to move from the identified supply container to the identified delivery component. For example, for this purpose it is possible to compare whether the identity of the fluid in the supply container corresponds (sufficiently) to the identity of the delivery component, eg the surge tank. It is also possible to compare whether the identity of the supply container and the identity of the surge tank appear as a cross reference in a database. It is also possible to contemplate that the coupling component is permanently connected (and cannot be released) to the delivery component, whereby the additional identification indicated above during step A) is not necessary.

At least some of the information listed above (identity delivery container, identity delivery component, identity fluid) can be further used to program the programmable identification element. The programmable identification element will generally consist of a physical tag that is affixed on or to the coupling component, generally at or near a connection location of the coupling component. Each connection point (input or output) of the coupling component is preferably provided with at least one programmable identification element, which in general can considerably facilitate the verification of a finally made coupling.

The identification means of the at least one coupling component can preferably be read, generally making use of a (hand-held) scanner, with which the programmed data is digitally read or retrieved.

The indication means of the at least one coupling component can be provided with a (re) programmable chip (dynamic / programmable identification element) and can be formed, for example, by an RFID tag. However, it is also possible to contemplate that the identification means comprise a programmable identification element formed by a static representation, in particular a static code, such as a barcode and / or a two-dimensional barcode, in particular a QR code, Through which it is possible to retrieve, for example, from a database, the programmed static code and, therefore, the dynamic digital information.

Therefore, the term "dynamic" / "programmable" should be interpreted relatively broadly in the context of this patent document. If, for example, peracetic acid is identified during step A) as the fluid for displacement, the identity of this fluid can be linked to the programmable identification element of the at least one coupling element, either directly by programming this fluid identity of or in the identification element, or indirectly through a digital cross-reference that is accessible through the identification element, for example via the Internet. The programmable identification element is preferably programmed via the database, wherein an identification of the programmable identification element is stored in the database.

It is also possible to contemplate that the identification means of the at least one coupling component also comprise a static identification element in addition to a programmable identification element. Such an embodiment offers the option of identifying the coupling component by means of a standard (static) code. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to incorporate the identity of the coupling component into programmable (dynamic) code.

As already noted, the coupling component can be diverse in nature. If the coupling component consists of a pump, then it is advantageous if the pump is activated during step E) if the verification during step D) is successful. This activation will generally initiate the fluid displacement process. If the coupling component is formed by a shut-off valve, it is advantageous for the shut-off valve to open during stage E) if the verification during stage D) is satisfactory.

The selection of the one or more coupling components to be used can take place in a relatively simple manner. In this case, it is even possible to envisage making use each time, during each fluid displacement, of the same coupling component or components, whereby the selection of a larger number of available coupling components can be dispensed with. The purpose of the selection during stage B) is that the at least one coupling component used is identified so that it can be subsequently and / or simultaneously programmed with situation-specific information (depending on the situation) than later, generally after of the coupling component, checked (read) for verification purposes in combination with information relating to a directly or indirectly coupled component. An exemplary situation can be described here in which a coupling component formed by an ABC conduit is used in a situation to transport a hydrogen peroxide (HP) from a supply container 123 to a specific buffer tank 456. The identity of the conduit is designated with the static code ABC, and this static code can be related to a dynamic code that depends on the application, for example, the HP code related to the fluid. After coupling conduit ABC to supply container 123 and surge tank 456, general code combination 123-ABC-HD results in an end surface of conduit ABC, and general code combination ABC-HD-456 in an opposite end surface of conduit ABC. The two code combinations can be scanned and verified (manually or automatically), generally using a database. If these code combinations are approved, for example, because the scanned code combinations correspond to pre-generated code combinations, fluid displacement can be initiated (step E).

If in step B) a plurality of coupling components are selected that are coupled together during step C) in order to make a connection between the supply container and the delivery component during step B), it is advantageous that a plurality of coupling components are programmed based on the information identified during step A). All couplings made of at least one coupling component and at least one adjacent component will generally be verified here during step D). The connection sequence of the coupling components can also be optionally predetermined here and checked during the verification step according to step D). An exemplary situation can be described here in which a coupling component, formed by an ABC conduit, and a DEF pump are used in a situation to transport a hydrogen peroxide (HP) from a supply container 123 to a 456 specific surge tank. The identity of the conduit is designated with the static code ABC, and this static code can be related to a dynamic code that depends on the application, for example, the HP code related to the fluid. The identity of the pump is designated by the static code DEF, and this static code can also be related to a dynamic code that depends on the application, for example, the HP code related to the fluid (or to the identity of the supply container and / or buffer tank). After coupling the ABC conduit to the surge tank 456 and the DEF pump and coupling the DEF pump to the newly resulting supply container 123 code combinations in the position of the connection locations, in this case for example 123 -DEF-HP, DEF-HP-ABC-HP, ABC-HP-456, which can be checked (verified), for example, on the basis of a database and / or code generator. If all code combinations, and thus all couplings, are passed, for example because the scanned code combinations correspond to previously generated code combinations, fluid displacement can be started (step E). The pump will normally activate automatically here.

When performing step D) a control unit and at least one database coupled to the control unit are preferably used in order to compare the identification of the at least one coupling component with the identification of at least one adjacent component coupled and / or comparing a combination of identities of the at least one coupling component and the adjacent combination with a predefined combination that is preferably stored digitally in the database. If the physically created join occurs in the database, the verification of this specific coupling will generally be successful during stage D).

The verification during step D) is preferably carried out based on at least one predetermined criteria. This criterion can be, for example, that the identification of a created combination of identified components occurs in a database. This is generally the simplest criterion. Thus, component A with dynamic identification AD can be coupled, for example, to component B with dynamic identification BD, whereby the combination of codes ADBD or BDAd is obtained, which can be recognized when applying the database. However, the at least one criterion can also be more complex, for example, by determining in advance that component A with dynamic identification AD can be coupled to component B with dynamic identification BD or component C with static identification C, so multiple code combinations are considered allowed. It is also possible to determine in advance that a surge tank and / or an applied coupling component may come into contact with a fluid with a different concentration than the same fluid that has previously been in contact with the surge tank and / or the applied coupling component, and so on.

Stage B) can be carried out before stage A). Therefore, the sequence of certain steps in the method can be changed.

The invention also relates to a system for moving a fluid from a supply container to a buffer tank, applying the method according to the invention, for use in an industrial textile laundry, comprising: at least one identifiable supply container provided of a fluid, a plurality of surge tanks, wherein at least a first identifiable surge tank is configured to contain a first fluid and at least one second identifiable surge tank is configured to contain a second fluid that differs from the first fluid , wherein said surge tanks can be connected to an industrial textile washing device, at least one coupling component to mutually couple the supply container and a surge tank in order to displace fluid through the at least one coupling component from the supply container to the coupled surge tank, which a The least one coupling component is provided with at least one identification means, and which coupling component is configured to be successively coupled, directly or indirectly, to a plurality of surge tanks and to a plurality of supply containers, at least one database provided with a plurality of programmable cross-references, in which each programmable cross-reference consists of an identification of a coupling component and at least one value depending on the identification of the supply container and / or the buffer tank , and at least one control unit connected to the database in order to verify, based on the identified coupling component and the cross-reference of the database related thereto, whether the fluid from the supply container can flow through the identified coupling component, wherein the at least one identification means comprises e a programmable identification element, the programmable identification element of which is configured to store (program) identification information relating to at least one adjacent component coupled to the coupling component, which at least one adjacent component is formed by at least one component selected from a group consisting of: the supply container, the surge tank and at least one other identified coupling component.

In the foregoing, the advantages and variant embodiments have already been described in detail.

The system preferably comprises a scanning device connected to the control unit (verification device) in order to scan the identification means of the at least one coupling component. This scanning device preferably comprises a handheld scanner. A handheld scanner is a practical aid in scanning labels (identification elements) at the position of the couplings made to allow the correct coupling to be verified and, if successful, to initiate fluid displacement. The handheld scanner is preferably configured here for wireless communication with the control unit, whereby the handheld scanner can be applied in a relatively practical way.

The supply container, the coupling component (s) and the surge tanks are preferably provided with an identification element (label), by means of which the control unit, such as a computer, can check how much correct is the coupling performed in a relatively simple way by scanning the labels.

As indicated, the coupling component can be diverse in nature and can be formed, for example, by a conduit, a lance, a shut-off valve, a coupling piece, a pump, etc. The supply container will generally be coupled to a (selected) delivery component through a plurality of serially connected coupling components. The supply container is generally transported by a vehicle.

When the system is applied in or near an industrial textile laundry, it is advantageous that at least one delivery component is connected to an industrial textile washing device, such as a so-called tunnel wash, or to at least one delivery component to form part of the industrial textile washing device, such as a nozzle, metering pump or other type of (transport) pump, in the device. This makes it possible to supply a fluid such as a detergent or bleaching agent to the textile laundry directly from the delivery component. The system may also comprise a plurality of supply containers, wherein each supply container is provided with mutually different fluids. Here it is possible to transport different fluids simultaneously from different supply vessels to different surge tanks.

In the foregoing, various aspects have already been clarified and will also be further clarified in the following description of figures.

The method and the system according to the invention are particularly, though not exclusively, suitable for application in or near an industrial textile laundry. Table linen and / or work clothes are washed, for example, in such textile laundries. However, it is also possible to envisage that the method and system according to the invention are applied for other purposes, such as, for example, industrial cleaning of facilities, systems, plugged ducts, tanks, hard surfaces and / or (commercial) facilities.

The invention will be clarified based on the non-limiting example embodiments shown in the following figures. In the present memory:

• Figure 4 schematically shows a system according to the present invention provided with a scanner; and

• Figure 5 shows schematically the verification of an incorrect coupling of the coupling element according to the present invention.

Figures 1-4 schematically show a method for moving a fluid according to the present invention with a programmable coupling hose. Figures 1-4 also schematically show a system and method according to the present invention for moving a fluid (1) from a supply container (2) to a surge tank (3) while making use of an element (4) coupling.

Figure 1 shows the fluid system (1), supply container (2), surge tank (3) and coupling element (4). According to an embodiment of the present invention, there are several fluids (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) in a plurality of supply vessels (2.1,2.2, 2.3) that can be displaced to the associated compensation tanks (3.1,3.2, 3.3) by means of a single coupling element (4). Each supply container (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) is provided with a means (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) of static identification and each compensation tank (3.1, 3.2, 3.3) is also provided with a means (6.1,6.2, 6.3 ) static identification.

A coupling element (4) is used to allow fluid movement from a supply container (2.1,2.2, 2.3) to a surge tank (3.1, 3.2, 3.3). This coupling element (4), represented as coupling hose (4), is also provided with an identification means (7). The means (7) for identifying the coupling element (4) are dynamic so that they can be programmed, for example, by a computer (8). The computer (8) is provided, for example, with a database with a plurality of cross references, in which each cross reference indicates which supply container (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) and which tank (3.1, 3.2, 3.3 compensation) can be coupled to each other by the coupling element (4).

Figure 2 shows the system of Figure 1, in which the coupling element (4) is programmed by means of dynamic identification means (7) and a computer (8). In the example shown in Figure 2, the dynamic identification means (7) is programmed to correspond with the static identification means (5.1) of a supply container (2.1) and the static identification means (6.1) of a first compensation tank (3.1).

Figure 3 shows the system of Figures 1 and 2, in which the coupling element (4) causes a connection between a supply container (2.1) and a buffer tank (3.1). The coupling element (4) allows the movement of the fluid (1.1) when the identification means (5.1,6.1 and 7) allow it according to the computer (8). In the example shown, the combination of the static identification means (5.1) of the supply container (2.1) and the programmed dynamic identification means (7) is allowed according to the computer (8), as is the combination of the means (6.1) static identification of the compensation tank (3.1) and the means (7) of dynamic identification programmed (illustrated by the plus sign in the computer (8)), and the fluid (1.1) can be transported from the container ( 2.1) supply to the compensation tank (3.1).

The means (5.1,5.2, 5.3, 6.1,6.2, 6.3, 7) of identification can include various types, such as a barcode or an RFID tag. Figure 4 shows the system of the previous figures, in which the system also comprises a scanning device (9) such as a barcode scanner or an RFID tag scanner to read the media (5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7) identification, such as a barcode or an RFID tag on the supply container (2.1, 2.2, 2.3), the compensation tank (3.1,3.2, 3.3) and the element ( 4) coupling. Said scanning device (9) is, for example, connected (wirelessly) to the computer (8) to transmit the scanned information, so that it is possible to verify on the basis of this information and the cross-reference related thereto of the database (8) of the computer (8) if it is allowed to move the fluid (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) from the supply container (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) to the compensation tank (3.1,3.2, 3.3) by means of the coupling element (4).

Figure 5 schematically shows the system of Figures 1 and 2, in which the coupling element (4) causes a connection between a supply container (2.2) and a buffer tank (3.1). The coupling element (4) allows the movement of the fluid (1.2) when the identification means (5.2, 6.1 and 7) allow it according to the computer (8). In the example shown, the combination of the static identification means (5.1) of the supply container (2.2) and the programmed dynamic identification means (7) is not allowed according to the computer (8) (illustrated by the minus sign in the computer (8)). The combination of the static identification means (6.1) of the compensation tank (3.1) and the programmed dynamic identification means (7) is allowed. (illustrated by the plus sign on the computer (8)). Therefore, the fluid (1.2) cannot be transported from the supply container (2.2) to the surge tank (3.1).

It will be apparent that the invention is not limited to the example embodiments shown and described herein, but that numerous variants are possible within the scope of the appended claims which will be apparent to those skilled in this field.
