A plurality of data carriers, possible carrying different information, may be placed at different positions. The data carrier may comprise a metal or plastics plate having data entries in the form of holes or projections. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Reusable packing receptacle and data carrier therefor The invention relates to data carriers and their provision on beer barrels (or casks) or other packing receptacles which can be reused repeatedly.
The data carrier allows automatic handling of the packing. Thus for example a beer cask or barrel can, with the use of the data carrier, be moved in fully automatic manner first through a cleaning plant and then through a filling installation.
Hitherto, a number of foils or strips have been adhesively affixed to the packing receptable to act as data carriers, using so-called bar codes. It was necessary to affix a plurality of data carriers with the same information content since only thus could it be ensured that the reading apparatus would see at least one data carrier. This kind of data carrier has not proved successful in all fields of use, and more particularly not in the automatic processing of beer barrels, since the strips may detach in the course of time and do not themselves have the strength necessary to survive repeatedly, undamaged, the rough handling which is unavoidable when the barrels are being transported and cleaned (subjected to impacts, ultraviolet radiation, ozone, hot alkaline solutions and other treatments).
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a beer barrel or other reusable packing receptacle having at least one data carrier, the packing receptacle comprising at least one projection and/or recess serving as a position locating means, and the data carrier having a predetermined position relatively to the projection and/or recess.
Such provisions make it possible, even with a simple apparatus, to bring a single data carrier on the receptacle automatically into the correct reading position in which the data carrier is aligned on the reading apparatus. A mechanical apparatus suffices which engages the projection or recess (e.g. a hole) and moves the receptacle into the correct reading position. Therefore it is not necessary to arrange several data carriers bearing the same information on the packing receptacle.
The invention does, however, also cover packing receptacles which bear more than one data carrier, and the respective data carriers can carry different information. In general, however, it will be sufficient to have a single data carrier and this, with acceptable cost, affords the possibility of giving the data carrier such a stable construction that it can even stand up to many rough treatments without damage impairing the reliability of data reading, e.g. many treatments in a barrel washing plant and many journeys of a barrel to the consumer and from the consumer back to the brewery.
The projection or recess may be formed of parts of the receptacle which are present in any case, or by projections or recesses specially provided for the purpose of orientating the data carrier. For example (claim 2) handles, which are provided on the receptacle in any case, can serve as points of reference for the orientation of the data carrier; alternatively, as indicated in claim 3, outlet holes on the projecting rim of a barrel (claim 3) may be used. In the case of barrels it is possible to use a data carrier placed on the barrel circumference or periphery (claim 4) and also on the barrel end which is situated uppermost in the normal standing position of the barrel (claim 6).Placing the data carrier on the barrel side (circumference or periphery) has the advantage that a reading apparatus can be arranged laterally of a conveyor apparatus for barrels, whereas placing it on the barrel end affords the advantage that the data carrier is well protected from mechanical stress, more particularly if a rim is provided which projects above the barrel end, as is always the case with modern stackable barrels or casks.
Claims 7 to 11 indicate various constructions for durable data carriers. If the data carrier is constructed as indicated in claim 7 as a separately produced, strong plate connected to the receptacle, the character or quality of the data carrier is substantially independent of that of the rest of the packing receptacle. However, the data carrier may be formed by the packing receptacle itself; for example, in the case of a barrel comprising a container within an outer covering, a surface formed on the covering could serve as a data carrier; and, when such a covering is produced in a mould, the data, which may be formed of projections or recesses for example, can be entered at the same time as the covering is produced.Alternativeiy it is also possible, for example, to use a heated tool to enter datarepresenting depressions in thermoplastic synthetic material after the manufacture of the covering from such material.
A very suitable data carrier is a metal plate (claim 8) on which the markings can be applied e.g. by stamping or by punching holes. A data carrier of synthetic plastics material according to claim 9 also has important advantages and is advantageous above all in connection with packing receptacles which themselves have a surface of synthetic plastics material. Data carriers in the form of metal plates, also more particularly data carriers of synthetic plastics material, can be embedded in a covering of plastics material with which the packing receptacle is provided. For example, beer barrels often have a covering made of synthetic plastics material applied in a foaming process, and the data carrier can be incorporated therein at the time of foaming.
Particularly durable are data entries constructed as surface unevennesses, i.e.
projections and/or recesses (claim 11). Such recesses may also be holes (claim 12). But markings may also be considered which are formed by an impression or some other colour contrast against a background. However, physical markings have the advantage of better durability.
More particularly if a packing receptacle is to be subjected to frequent washing operations, such as happens in the case of barrels or casks, threedimensional or physical markings are particularly advantageous.
It is advantageous to provide indications in clear besides coded information as indicated in claim 13. This facilitates occasional monitoring by reading off the information visually (by eye). But reading apparatus do exist which can deciper a clear record, so that the invention is not restricted to data carriers with coded information. Boundary markings as in claim 14 further improve the reliability of reading operations. A binary code as proposed in claim 1 5 is particularly good and reliable.
According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a data carrier as defined in claim 1 6, further features being given in claims 1 7 to 23. A data carrier thus constructed is notable for being extremely robust due on the one hand to the fact that the code markings are of a physical nature and on the other hand to the fact that the code markings are identically constructed areas. Identically constructed areas, e.g. circular dots, can be formed with inexpensive means, e.g.
by the punching of holes, and are stiil reliably readable even after long periods of use with a packing receptacle, whereas codings with different markings, such as for example thin and thick lines or rectangles of various sizes, can no longer be reliably read after slight damage to or soiling of the markings.
Constructional examples of the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein Fig. 1 shows a side view of a beer barrel or cask, or similar receptacle, standing upright; Fig. 2 shows a plan view of the barrel in the direction of the arrow Il in Fig. 1; Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of the upper end of the barrel shown in Figs. 1 and 2; Fig. 4 shows a partial view of the barrel in the region of a data carrier; and Fig. 5 shows a section taken on the line V-V in Fig. 4.
The barrel, which is given the general reference F, comprises an inner metal container 1 and a covering 2 of foamed-on synthetic plastics material which completely encioses this metal container. This covering is applied by foaming the synthetic plastics material about the metal container 1.
The covering 2 has in general a cylindrical external shape. Two tyre-like ridges 3 and 4 are moulded on to the covering.
The covering 2 has projecting rims 5 and 6 at its axial ends. The upper rim 5 is perforated with handle holes 7 and 8 and the lower rim 6 with drainage or outlet holes 9. A data carrier 10 is situated on the outer surface of the covering 2.
The data carrier 10 is shown as being situated on a generatrix line 11 which also passes through an outlet hole 9. The outlet hole 9 forms a recess or aperture which can be engaged by a mechanical aligning means which can turn the barrel on a conveyor belt or the like into a specific position. As a result the data carrier 10 is also aligned on to a reading apparatus so that reliable reading is possible.
The data carrier 10 need not lie on a generatrix line which also extends through the hole 9; instead it can be offset by a specific angle, e.g. by 90 , relatively to such a line. Instead of the lower outlet hole 9 the upper handle holes 7, 8 could also serve as starting points for the orientation of the data carrier 10. However, using the lower hole 9 has the advantage that a mechanical aligning means can engage at an advantageous point, namely in such a way that there is no risk of the aligning forces making the barrel fall over.
Fig. 2 shows that, alternatively or additionally, a data carrier 13 can also be placed on the upper end surface 12 of the barrel. If it is additional this data carrier may contain the same information as the data carrier 10, which makes it possible for the reading apparatus to be situated optionally either laterally of the barrel or above the barrel. The two data carriers 10 and 13 may, however, also contain different information.
The data carriers allow fully automatic handling of the barrel. Thus the barrel can be conducted in fully automatic manner through a cleaning and sterilising plant, in which the interior of the barrel is also treated through the nozzle 14. Then the barrel can be conducted in fully automatic manner through a filling plant. Arrows in Fig. 2 indicate the transporting or conveying direction and the reading direction. If, as is usual, the reading apparatus is arranged in a stationary situation and the barrel is conveyed past the:reading apparatus, the reading direction is naturally opposite to the transporting direction relatively to the barrel. It will be evident from Fig. 2 that correct reading is possible only if the barrel is in the correct angular position.
Figs. 4 and 5 show a data carrier 13 in its natural size. This is a stamped metal plate. The metal plate has edge flanges 1 3a and 1 3b, which are connected to the inscription area 14 via bentover portions 15, 1 6. The edge flanges are situated within a layer 1 7 of foamed-on synthetic plastics material which is part of the barrel covering. In this case the data carrier 13 is secured in its position within the foaming mould in which the covering 2 is produced.
A data carrier 13 is shown which contains the information on the one hand in clear (numerals 18) and on the other hand in the form of a binary code (dots 19). The actual information in the binary code is given by markings within the rectangular zone 20 shown in broken lines. This zone is surrounded by a total of four boundary markings 21 by means of which the reading apparatus monitors whether the zone 20 to be read is in the correct position relatively to the reading apparatus.
Outside the zone 20 there are control lines 22 and 23. The control line 22 extends at right angles to the reading direction and the control line 23 extends in the reading direction. The control lines consist of so-called check bits, which allow monitoring as to whether the code markings arranged inside the zone 20 have been covered by the reading apparatus.
The markings, both the numerals 1 8 and also the dots 19, are formed by perforating the plate 13. This means that the markings are extremely durable; they are practicaliy indestructible and therefore stand up to even rough treatment in a brewery over a long period. Above all the perforation type of marking cannot be destroyed by washing agents such as e.g. hot alkaline solutions. Markings formed by stamping have corresponding advantages also.
