Abstract
The mouthpiece consists of a tubular piece (1) with a crimped-round lower edge which forms a collar (2). An insert consisting of a perforated plate (3) and of a foam disc (4) is supported on the collar (2). The perforated plate (3) has a large degree of opening and opposes no detectable resistance to the liquid to be tapped, whilst the foam disc (4) guarantees a pulsed ejection of a homogeneous and bubble-free liquid jet. <IMAGE>
Description
(54) A METHOD OF FILLING A CARTON
(71) We, JAGENBERG-WERKE A.G., a Joint Stock Company organised under the laws of Germany (Fed. Rep.) of Postfach
1123, Do000 Dusseldorf 1, Germany (Fed.
Rep.), do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a Patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed to be particularly described in and by the following statement: - This invention relates to a method of filling a carton with solid-free liquid without substantial frothing thereof.
Milk-packaging machines, in particular for milk to be packaged in folding boxes under sterile conditions, must meet the requirement of filling the milk into the container packages speedily and as free from frothing as possible.
In practice, this is carried out in that a nozzle with a flow cross-section of approximately 20 cm2 is selected and milk is ejected in pulse fashion. Moreover, no milk should drip from the machine. It has benin attempted to meet these requirements by means of a nozzle with an apertured insert formed by strainers of fine steel. Inserts of this kind, however, leave much to be desired. They tend to plug easily which requires removal and cleaning.
The cleaning of the strainers represents a problem as far as sterile conditions and the continuation of work are concerned. In view of the relatively high cost of these fine steel strainers they cannot readily be replaced.
Moreover, the dripping of milk is not satisfactorily stopped.
According to the present invention there is provided a method of filling a carton with solids-free liquid without substantial frothing thereof, comprising expelling the liquid in a pulsating flow through a nozzle insert made of open-pore polyurethane foam.
Preferably, the insert is in the shape of a disc and is seated on an apertured supporting member which may be an orifice plate or a wire screclL The nozzle insert used in the invention is far less susceptible to plugging than the nozzle provided with screens in the form of an insert, and the nozzle theretore requires less maintenance. Another advantage is to be seen in that, compared with screens made from fine steel, the foam material is quite inexpensive. It does, therefore, not require cleaning and can simply be exchanged for another disc of foam. Whenever dispensing under sterile conditions is required, a replace as as a rule, is necessary but once per day, after completion of production when the dispensing machine is cleaned and sterilized.
Furthermore, it has become apparent that by use of an insert, made from open-pore polyurethane foam there is practically no dripping.
The present invention will be further described hereunder with the aid of the drawing, showing an embodiment in crosssection.
The nozzle comprises a circular pipe end 1, the lower edge of which is flanged toward: its centre in such a fashion that it forms a collar 2, on which the insert is supported.
The insert comprises an orifice plate 3, form; ing a supporting member, having an open area approximately 90% of its surface area.
Because of this, the aperture plate 3 offers no significant resistance to the liquid to be dispensed. On the orifice plate 3 rests foam disc 4 made from openpore polyurethane foam in the form of a disc having a thickness of approximately 5 mm. The orifice plate 3 and the foam disc 4 fully cover the crosssection of the nozzle.
The foam disc 4 guarantees on the one hand that the liquid column thereabove can be ejected in pulse fashion, without dripping and on the other hand that the jet of liquid is honogenous and froth-free. This continues to be so even after particles, such as coagulated albumin, being carried by the liquid to be dispensed, become deposited to a degree where in a different insert, such as a strainer, the danger of dripping and frothing would be present.
Claims (5)
1. A method of filling a carton with solidsfree liquid without substantial frothing thereof, comprising expelling the liquid in a pulsating flow through a nozzle insert made
of open-pore polyurethane foam.
2. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein
the insert is in the shape of a disc.
3. A method as claimed in claim 1 or 2,
wherein the insert seats on an apertured sup
porting member
4. A method as claimed in claim 3, wherein the supporting member is an orifice plate or a wire screen.
5. A method of filling a carton with solidsfree liquid without substantial frothing thereof,
substantially as herein described with ref
erence to the accompanying drawing.
