Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION An example of a conventional bottom-filling type beer clogging valve will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. It is a sectional view showing a state separated from a plugged valve.

In FIG. 1, a valve body 3 is fixed to a valve connecting seat 1 with a bolt (not shown) via a connecting seat packing 2 which is fixed to a packing machine main body (not shown). Further, a valve operating lever 5 is attached to the valve body 3 via a disc packing 4 so as to be rotatable relative to the valve body 3. That is, the operating lever 5 is pressed against the valve body 3 by a nut 8 via a thrust bearing 6 and a spring 7, and the lever 5 is mounted so as to be rotatable relative to the valve body 3. Further, a valve seat 10 is fixed to the lower end of the valve body 3 via a packing 9 with a nut 11, and the upper end of an injection pipe 13 is screwed into the center of the valve seat 10, and a packing 12 is attached to the lower end. The packing 12 is iron-fitted to the injection pipe 13 so that when the bell 14, which can freely slide up and down, rises, it comes into contact with the upper surface of the bell 14 and acts as a seal. Also, on the lower inner surface of the bell 14, a gasket 15 acts as a seal to prevent leakage when it comes into contact with the eel mouth of the ink 17.
Further, a spiral register 16 for a counter pressure passage is formed in the inner flap part of the bell 14. lips 1
7 is placed on a dust tray 18 and raised and lowered by a air cylinder 19, and the air cylinder 19 is attached to a cylinder table 20' of the main body of the tsuru filling machine (not shown), and is connected to the connecting seat 1 directly below the valve connecting seat 1. The same number is provided. Also second
When the dust 17 in the figure is falling, the beer is at the specified liquid level 2 within the dust.
1 is filled with. Next, the dust filling process using the conventional dust filling valve shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be explained step by step. The trench is fed onto the bell tower 18 by a crane conveyor (not shown) (see FIG. 2). (However, there is no liquid inside Ai 17).

Next, the air cylinder 19 is operated to raise the dust 17, and the bell 14 is pushed up by the bell 17, so that the bell 14 comes into contact with the packing 12, and the pushing force of the air cylinder 19 makes the ink 17 and the packing 15 and the bell 14 and the packing 12 strong. It is crimped and sealed to prevent leaks. Next, when the valve operating lever 5 is actuated to connect only the counter pressure (air or carbon dioxide) line (the beer line remains open), the counter pressure enters from the opening 22 and moves from the valve connecting seat 1 to the connecting seat. Packing 2 → Valve body 3
→ Disc packing 4 → Valve operating lever 5 → Packing 4 → Valve body 3 → Packing 9 → Valve seat 10 → Arrows 23, 24, 25, 26 indicate the lotus holes inside each of Peru 4.
Proceed in the opposite direction and pressurize the inside of trench 17 to counter pressure. Next, operate the valve operating lever 5 to open the beer line and counter pressure line at the same time (Fig. 1)
. Enters from the beer mouth part 27 coming out of a combination tank (not shown), valve connecting seat 1 → connecting seat packing 2 → valve body 3
→ Disc packing 4 → Valve operating lever 5 → Packing 4 → Valve body 3 → Valve seat 10 → Proceed through the respective lotus holes inside the injection pipe 13 in the directions of arrows 28, 29, 30, and 31 and inject into the weir 17. Ru. Further, the counter pressure inside the crane 17 advances in the directions of arrows 26, 25, 24, and 23, and returns to the crab stuffing tank through the mouth 22. This allows the platform 17 to be filled with beer. When the beer fills the dust 17 to its full capacity, the valve operating lever 5 is operated to close both the beer line and the counter pressure line. Next, the air cylinder 19 is lowered to the state shown in FIG. 2. At this time, the injection pipe 13 that was in the filling weir 17 is pulled out from the trench 17, so the beer liquid level drops by the volume 32 of the injection pipe 13, and becomes the specified liquid level 21. Next, the trench 17 filled with beer is discharged from the top of the case 18 by a trench conveying device (not shown) and sent to a corking machine (not shown). However, the conventional filling valve described above has the following drawbacks. In other words, it is necessary to match the volume of the head space (volume 32) above the specified liquid level 21 with the volume inside the flea of the injection tube 13, so if the dust has a small volume 32, the injection tube 13 should be made thinner. (The smaller the size of the beer falling from the tip of the injection pipe 13, the less foaming the beam will have and the better quality blackened beer will be obtained, so even if the volume 32 is small, the H size cannot be increased). Therefore, there was a drawback that the filling speed was slow and the operating capacity of the weight filling machine was reduced. In addition, the operating capacity of the foot filling machine must be determined based on both the dust filling capacity and the head space capacity, and since the injection pipe 13 is exposed for a long time, even if it is guided by the bell 14, it will not work when the dust 17 rises. The injection pipe 13 may be pushed up at the dust port, and there is a risk that filling defects, weight breakage, injection pipe bending, etc. may occur. The present invention was proposed to solve the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, and includes a valve body attached to a tank for storing a carbonated beverage;
A dust seal mouthpiece attached to the lower end of the valve body, a liquid injection pipe passing through the mouthpiece and attached to the valve body, and a switching valve attached to the side of the valve body. A liquid passage formed to be able to connect and shut off the lower part of the tank and the madrid pipe into the valve and the valve body, and the upper part of the tank and the mouthpiece into the valve and the valve body. In the Rentsu valve, which has a counter pressure passage formed to be shut off and is configured to fill the beverage in the tank into ink, the liquid injection pipe can be slid up and down into the valve body. At the same time, the piston attached to the upper end of the valve body

The valve body 57 has a pressurizing valve 60 and an exhaust valve 61 built therein. The pressure valve 60 is provided with a packing 62 and a ring 63, and a spring 64 presses the packing 62 against the seat surface of the valve body 57 to form a valve. A gasket 65 is provided on the exhaust valve 61, and the gasket 65 is pressed against the seat surface of the valve body 57 by a spring 66 to form a valve. Valve body 54
An injection pipe 67 is iron-fitted to be slidable up and down inside the valve body 54, and a ring 68 is provided between the valve body 54 and the valve body 54 to form a square cylinder. In addition, a circle 69 is attached to the valve body 54 to prevent leakage of the emotional part of the injection pipe 67, and a circle 69 is attached to the valve body 35.
is provided with a circle 70. A cylinder lid 71 is attached to the upper end of the valve body 54 with a positioning pin 72 and a clamp 7.
3, and a spring 74 for pushing down the injection tube 67 is provided between the cylinder lid 71 and the injection tube 67. Also, a lever 75 that presses the upper part of the injection pipe 67 is swingably attached to the cylinder lid 71 with a screw 76. FIG. 8 shows a view in the direction of arrow A in FIG. 3. In FIG. (lever 75 shown in solid line in FIG. 8). In addition, when the connecting machine rotates in the direction of arrow 79 in FIG. 8, the lever 75 is pushed by the cam 8 fixed to the outer periphery of the groove filling machine and moves to the position 75' shown by the dotted line. ,
The upper end of the injection tube 67 can now rise freely. Incidentally, the pond beer line and the counter pressure line are provided with through holes, which will be described in the explanation of the function below. Next, to explain the operation, the filling process when vacuum is supplied to the mouth 81, counter-pressurized carbon dioxide gas is supplied to the mouth 82, and beer is supplied to the mouth 83 is as follows. First, in FIG. 9, empty dust enters from an arrow 84, passes through a lip feeding screw 85 and an inlet star wheel 86, and is supplied to a dust packing machine 87, and reaches position Q. As shown in FIG. 4, horse mackerel 88 is supplied directly below the injection pipe 67 at point a, which is the contact point between the inlet star wheel 86 and the refilling machine 87. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the tip 89 of the injection tube 67 has risen to the inside of the gasket 51, and the eel 88 has a dimension S (
When the ink 88 is raised by a cylinder for raising and lowering the base (not shown) by about 30 degrees, the ink 88 comes into contact with the packing 51 and is sealed to prevent leakage. The state of the switching valve 37 at this time is as shown in FIG. 5, and in FIG. 5, the switching valves 38, 39, and 40 are all in a closed state. Next, when the dust moves to the position b in Fig. 9, the cam 9 shown in Fig. 6 installed on the outer periphery of the summer/air switching valve 4 and the dust machines is activated to open the vacuum passages 81a, 48, and 81b. In FIG. 3, the air in trench 88 is vacuum passage 81c, 81b, 48, 8.
Vacuum is drawn from the passage 1a to the mouth 81. At the same time the third
9, the lever 75 is actuated by the cam 91 provided on the outer periphery of the eel stuffing machine, and the exhaust valve 61 is actuated by the cam 92, so that the lever 75 is moved to the position 75' in FIG. Freeing the upper end of the tube 67, the exhaust valve 61 is pushed in and thus releases the counter pressure contained in the cylinder 93 through the passages 94a, 94b. Accordingly, the force of the spring 74 causes the injection tube 67 to descend into the trench 88, and the distal end 89 of the injection tube 67 reaches a position 89' indicated by the dotted line in FIG. Note that when the exhaust valve 61 is removed from the cam 92, the spring 66
returns to the original position. Further, the cam 90 is a known mechanism that does not operate when the platform 88 is not supplied. Next, at position c in FIG. 9, the vacuum switching valve 40 is operated by the cam 95 shown in FIG.
1a and 81b are closed, and then the counter pressure switching valve 3 is closed.
The counter pressure passages 82a, 44, 82b and 82a, 4 are operated by a cam 96 provided on the outer periphery of the machine.
4 and 97 are opened, and as shown in FIG. 3, the counter pressurized carbon dioxide gas is applied to the bonito 88 through the mouth 82, passages 82a, 44, 82b, 82c and the mouth 82, passages 82a, 44, 97, 97a. be pressured. Incidentally, the cam 96 is configured to not operate unless the fleas 88 are supplied by a known mechanism. Next, at position d in FIG. 9, the beer switching valve 38 is operated by the cam 98 shown in FIG. Beer flows from the mouth part 83 to beer passages 83a, 41, 83
b, flows into the trench 88 via the chamber 99, the hole 100 of the injection tube and the outlet 101;

At the same time, the counter pressure conversion valve 39 is actuated by the cam 102 shown in FIG. , 82b, so in FIG.
Return along the route from 2a to the mouth portion 82. In this way, the beer is filled into the dust 88 by the action of the beer flowing into the algae 88 and the counter pressure carbon dioxide gas returning. It should be noted that the cam 98 is not activated by a known mechanism unless dust is collected. Further, in order to control the beer filling speed, an orifice 103 can be provided between the counter pressurizing passages 82b and 82c as shown in FIG. Therefore, the counter pressure line has two routes as shown in FIG.
Next, at the position e in FIG. 9, beer filling has progressed to about half the volume of the dust 88, and the liquid level in the black 88 in FIG. ' to the solid line 89 to adjust the volume of the injection pipe 67 in the moat to the head space volume 105 in the dust after the construction as shown in FIG.

That is, since the lever 75 is disengaged from the cam 91 as shown in FIG.
(in a position where the upper end can be stopped). Therefore, in Fig. 3, the pressurizing valve 60 is provided on the outer periphery of the dust packing machine.
When actuated (pressed) by the cam 106 shown in the figure, the passages 94c and 94d shown in Figure 3 open, counter pressure gas flows in through the mouth 82, the passages 94d, 94c, 94a, and the cylinder 93, and the spring The injection tube 67 is pushed up against the force 74 until the upper end of the injection tube 67 hits the lever 75, that is, the lower end 89 of the injection tube 67 stops at the position shown by the solid line in FIG. Further, when the pressurizing valve 60 is removed from the cam 106, it is restored by the spring 64. Next, at position f in FIG. 9, the beer filling is full of dust 88, so the beer switching valve 38 is operated by the cam 107 in FIG. The beer passages 93a and 83b are closed, and then the exhaust valve 61 shown in FIG. 3 is momentarily activated (pushed) by the cam 108 shown in FIGS. Passages 94a and 94b shown in the figure
is opened to release the counter pressure in the cylinder 93 (the exhaust valve 61 is restored by the spring 66 as soon as it comes off the cam 108), so the injection pipe 67 descends slightly and the injection pipe 67
A gap is created between the upper end of the bar 75 and the bar 75.

At this time, in Figures 3 and 9, the lever 75 is actuated by the cam 801 provided on the outer periphery of the trench filling machine, and the upper end of the injection pipe S7 is set free at the position 75' shown by the dotted line in Figure 8. . Further, the pressurizing valve 60 is actuated (pushed) by the cam 109 to open the passages 94c and 94d shown in FIG. As a result, the counter pressure in FIG.
d, 94c, 94a, flow into cylinder 93 and injection pipe 67
is pushed up to the top layer (at this time, the pushing up force of the cylinder 93 is stronger than the spring force of the spring 74), so the injection tube tip 89 in the trench 88 is in the position shown in Fig. 4, and is completely pulled out from the crane 88. A head space is created above the trench 88. At this time, the paths 82, 82a, 44, 82b, and 82c are open. Moreover, when the pressurizing valve 6 is removed from the cam 109, it is restored by the spring 64. Next, at position g in FIG.
08, the counter pressure line is closed as shown in FIG.

At the same time, when the lip 88 is lowered by a cylinder for raising and lowering the dust tray (not shown), the state shown in FIG. 4 is obtained. However, in this case, dust 88
It's filled with beer. Next, at the position h in FIG. 9, the dust filled at the contact point between the fog filling machine 87 and the transfer star wheel 110 is discharged and sent to the capping machine 111. The above is the beer filling process.The operating order of the switching valve 37 is summarized as follows: Fig. 5 (fully closed) -> Fig. 6 (vacuum) -> Fig. 7 (counter pressurization) -> Figure 3 (filling) → 1st
Figure 2 (beer line closed) → Figure 13 (counter pressure line closed).

Note that the switching valve mechanism shows one embodiment.
Various other mechanisms are also possible. Furthermore, although the beer filling example has been described above, the present invention can also be used in a dust filling process for soy sauce. In the current industry, soy sauce is not evacuated, and since it does not contain carbon dioxide, counter pressure is not required. Therefore, the vacuum switching valve 40 and vacuum passages 81, 81a, 81b, and 81c shown in FIG. 3 are not necessary. In this case, the counter pressure passages 82, 82a, 8
2b and 82c are return air passages, the mouth 82 and the passage 94d are separated to form another line, and a control air for operation is supplied to the passage 94d. Therefore, the filling process is as follows. That is, position a in FIG. 9 is the same as in the case of beer. Also, there is no vacuum step at position b, but at this position the injection tube descends in the same way as in the case of beer. There is no c position,
The d position is the same as in the case of beer, but in this case the counter pressure switching valve 39 becomes a barrier for the first time. Next, e
．． f. g. The h position is the same as for beer. In addition, the operating order of the switching valve 37 in this case is as shown in Fig. 5 (fully closed) →
Figure 3 (filling) → Figure 12 (soy sauce line closed) → Figure 13 (return air line closed). As explained in detail above, according to the present invention, it is not necessary to match the volume of the head space (volume) above the specified liquid level with the volume of dust in the injection tube, so that the injection tube can be thick regardless of the volume of the head space. This means that filling operations can be performed at maximum capacity at all times.

Furthermore, since the injection tube of the present invention is moved up and down, there is no problem with the conventional method of moving the horse mackerel up and down to insert the injection tube, such as bending or breaking of the injection tube. Furthermore, in the present invention, the filling liquid (
This has excellent effects such as less loss of beer (beer, soy sauce, etc.). The present invention can be applied to a beer dust filling machine, a dust filling machine, a soy sauce black filling machine, etc.
