を殺菌づるIこめの装置に関Jる。[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention has the following features: lζ but a required space is isolated from the outside air;
The present invention relates to a packaging machine capable of performing packaging operations for 7 hours, and a device for sterilizing containers.

のように容器に付着した殺菌液を蒸発除去するようにし
ているために、容器に噴射される殺菌液の量が過大であ
ると、これを完全に蒸発除去づることができず、容器に
殺菌液が残留する恐れがある。Conventional container sterilizers are known in which a sterilizing liquid is sprayed onto a container to sterilize the container, and then the container is passed through hot air to evaporate and remove the sterilizing liquid adhering to the container. The disadvantages of this container sterilizer are as follows. As mentioned above, since the sterilizing liquid adhering to the container is removed by evaporation, if an excessive amount of sterilizing liquid is sprayed onto the container, it cannot be completely removed by evaporation, and the sterilizing liquid attached to the container may be removed. There is a risk that sterilizing solution may remain.
またこれと逆に殺菌液噴霧量が過少であると、容器の完
全殺菌ができなくなる恐れがある。このように殺菌液に
噴射量を微妙に調節しなりればならず、そのために多大
の労力を必要とした。On the other hand, if the amount of sterilizing solution sprayed is too small, there is a risk that the container will not be completely sterilized. In this way, the injection amount of the sterilizing liquid had to be delicately adjusted, which required a great deal of effort.

器殺菌装置を提供することにある。The purpose of this invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of conventional devices, to completely remove the sterilizing liquid adhering to the C1 container without delicately adjusting the amount of sterilizing liquid sprayed, and to achieve complete sterilization of the container. The object of the present invention is to provide a container sterilization device that can be mounted on a packaging machine.

することができる。Sterilizer]? The containers supplied to the chamber are first sprayed with a sterilizing liquid and sterilized while being conveyed through a sterilizing chamber 17 on a conveyor. Then, hot air is blown into the container to steam and remove the sterilizing liquid that has adhered to the container. In this process, the temperature of the sterilizing solution is raised by 1 fold, thereby increasing the sterilizing power. Finally, since the cleaning liquid is sprayed onto the container, even if the sterilizing liquid remains in the container without being completely evaporated, it can be completely removed by the cleaning liquid. Therefore, even if the amount of sterilizing liquid injected into the container is excessive, it can be completely removed by the cleaning liquid, so there is no need to delicately adjust the amount of sterilizing liquid sprayed into the container. can be completely and reliably sterilized.

く、内容物が充てんされる。When the sterilizing liquid attached to the container (C) was evaporated and removed by blowing hot air, the temperature was about 80°C, but it was 110°C.
It can be avoided to a certain extent. As a result, the best sterilizing power is exhibited when oxygen is removed from the hydrogen peroxide solution, which is a sterilizing solution. Further, even if the sterilizing liquid adhering to the container (C) is not completely evaporated and removed by the hot air, it is washed away by the cleaning liquid. Therefore, the amount of hot water sprayed with the sterilizing solution may be larger than the amount that can be evaporated and removed by the hot air, and there is no need to make delicate adjustments. The container (C), which has been completely sterilized and from which the sterilizing solution has been removed, is then turned over while being conveyed directly above the discharge port (8), with the mouth facing upward.
[Get into a position, and while in that position, pass the shoe i~ (9) sterilely? (1). Therefore, the sterilized container can be filled with the contents without being contaminated by outside air or the like again.
