The present invention relates to a method for drying a disinfectant in an aseptic packaging system for paper containers and the like, and particularly to a method for sufficiently drying the bottom inner surface of a container in which a disinfectant is most difficult to dry. It can be dried.

<従来技術とその問題点> 従来、この種の無菌包装システムにおいては、例え

<Prior art and its problems> Conventionally, in this type of aseptic packaging system, as shown in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. Sho 62-17506, hot air is injected after sterilization with H 2 O 2 mist or the like. It is common to remove residual H 2 O 2 by heating.

しかし、上記従来の熱風だけによる乾燥では特に殺菌

However, with the conventional drying using only hot air, the disinfectant cannot be completely removed particularly at the bottom of the container where the disinfectant is likely to remain, and the disinfectant remains, which is not preferable in terms of food hygiene. Therefore, there is a problem that the sterilizing effect becomes unstable if the injection amount of the sterilizing agent is suppressed as much as possible so as not to remain.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The present invention is a method conceived to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. In a sterile packaging system, a container made of a laminated material having a metal layer at least on a bottom surface is used as a disinfectant. After disinfection, the container is heated by spraying hot air onto the inner surface of the container in the drying step of the container, and oscillating high frequency by a high-frequency oscillator provided below to heat the guide rail supporting the bottom of the container, thereby heating the container. It is characterized by evaporating the agent.

<Function> The present invention is configured as described above. After sterilizing the container, the germicide remaining on the inner surface of the container is heated by high-frequency oscillation and evaporated by only high-temperature injection, and the inner surface of the container including the inner surface of the container is sterilized. Residual germicides are completely removed.

First, in the sterilization step (A), the H 2 O 2 mist (5)
Is sprayed onto the inner surface of the container (1) so that the inner surface (including the bottom surface) of the container (1) is covered with a germicide. Next, the container (1) is transferred to the drying step (B) by the chain (2). This step (B) is divided into three steps (B 1 ), (B 2 ) and (B 3 ), and in each step, hot air (6) is sprayed onto the inner surface of the container (1) to dry the residual H 2 O 2 . . Here, the container (1) is
As shown in the figure, it is housed in a holder (3), and the bottom surface is supported by, for example, two guide rails (7) and conveyed intermittently by a chain (2). In each step (B 1 ), (B 2 ), and (B 3 ) of B), a coil (8) is built in a part of the guide rail (7) corresponding to the position where the container (1) stops. B 1)
(B 2 ) When the container (1) is stopped in (B 3 ), the high-frequency oscillator (9) is operated to supply a high-frequency current to generate heat in the guide rail (7) via the coil (8). This heat is transmitted to the container (1), and the material of the container (1) includes aluminum or the like. For example, the container (1) is a paper container having a configuration of polyethylene / paper / polyethylene / aluminum / polyethylene from the outer surface. ) The residual H 2 O 2 on the inner surface is evaporated. In this case, since the bottom surface of the container (1) is hermetically sealed by polyethylene welding, it is necessary to set the heating temperature so as not to affect the welding location. In addition, the side of the container is easily hit by hot air and has a chimney effect.
