Abstract

PURPOSE:To check for bubbles in a paper container, by detecting the temperature distribution of the paper container with an infrared camera in a specified time after the paper container filled with a liquid is heated. CONSTITUTION:A paper container 3 filled with a liquid is moved continuously as titled on a belt conveyor slowly in the direction of the arrow N. With the movement of the belt conveyor, first, the paper container 3 is heated by a hot air 2 at a heating section 11 and then, the temperature distribution thereof is detected with an infrared camera 13 of a temperature detector 12 via a part free from the hot air 2. When judged to be rejectable, the paper container is discharged as defective one 21 at a defective product discharge section 14 in the subsequent process.

(Technical background of the invention and its problems) Metal cases made of aluminum or the like are generally used as containers for liquids such as coffee or juice. This can block light and air from the outside world. This is because it also has the feature of being resistant to impact. However, this metal case has drawbacks such as difficulty in disposing of it after use and the high cost of the metal material, so to prevent liquid from leaking onto paper, plastic, or composites of these materials, the inner surface is laminated with aluminum foil. What has been done is considered. These materials have the advantage that they are inexpensive and can be incinerated compared to metals when they are disposed of after use. When using materials such as paper as containers for liquids, gas barrier properties can be improved at low cost, and outer back lines can be cut by laminating the inner surface of aluminum foil. If left, the quality of the internal liquid will deteriorate, so it is necessary to seal it in an overflow state. However, due to problems with the filling machine or defects in the container, air bubbles may remain in the container after filling, and these must be disposed of as defective products, but there has been no method to detect this transmission until now.

(Summary of the Invention) The present invention relates to a method for detecting air bubbles in a container, in which heat is applied to a paper container filled with liquid for a predetermined period of time, and then the temperature distribution of the paper container is detected using an infrared camera after a predetermined period of time has elapsed. However, the presence or absence of air bubbles in the paper container can be detected based on the partial temperature difference in this temperature distribution.

(Embodiment of the Invention) FIG. 1 shows a paper container to which the present invention can be applied and an embodiment in which heat is applied to the container. Hot air 2 is blown into the paper container 3 filled with liquid through a heater device l. It is placed at the top. This paper container 3 consists of a main body 3A and a lid 3B, and an enlarged sectional view of the upper part of this container 3 is shown in Figure fjS2. Here, air bubbles are contained in the paper container 3, and by tilting the paper container as shown in FIG. Figure 3 shows the temperature distribution of this paper container 3 detected from the side, that is, from the front in Figure 2, using an external line camera (not shown).The CR7 screen 6 shows the temperature distribution of each part. The temperature distribution is shown by the density of the color, and by comparing it with the temperature scale 10, you can judge the temperature of that part. The temperature distribution of each of the paper containers 9 which are tilted and supported by the supporting stand 8 supported on the stand 7 is shown, and the temperature difference between the liquid portion 9A and the air portion 8B can be seen.

A detailed explanation of the invention in such a configuration is as follows:
Once the entire paper container 3 is heated by the hot air 2, the hot air is stopped and after a while, the temperature of the portion of the paper container 3 that is in contact with the liquid portion 4 is lower than that of the portion that is in contact with the air portion 5. The portion of the paper container 3 exhibits a high temperature due to the difference in heat capacity. In other words, heat is absorbed by the liquid in the part that is in contact with the liquid part 4, which maintains almost room temperature, so the heat is absorbed by the part that is in contact with the air part 5. (It gets cold.

Therefore, when looking at the temperature distribution with an infrared camera,
The temperature distribution 8B of the air portion appears darker than the temperature distribution 9A of the liquid portion, indicating that the temperature is high. If there is no air in the paper container, the color density of the temperature distribution 9A of the liquid portion will be uniform. In other words, whether there is an air portion 5 in the paper container 3 is determined by analyzing the temperature data obtained by an infrared camera, and if there is a partial temperature difference or if there is a portion whose temperature is higher than a certain set temperature. This makes it easy to identify defective products.

According to an example from an experiment, a paper container is heated to a temperature of several tens of degrees by blowing hot air at a temperature of about 60 to +00°C, and a few seconds after the hot air is stopped, the high-temperature air part rises to 35°C and a low-temperature one. The liquid part reaches 28℃, and this temperature difference occurs for approximately 30 seconds or more, and it is possible to indicate a defective product discharge signal due to the sufficient temperature difference or because the set temperature (for example, about 32℃) has been exceeded.

The movement by this Peltocoveyor begins with a process in which the heating unit 11 heats the body with hot air 2, then passes through a process in which the hot air 2 does not hit, and then the infrared camera 13 is heated by the temperature detection unit 12.
The temperature distribution of the paper container 3 is detected, and if it is determined to be a defective product, it is discharged like the paper container 21 in the next process, the defective product discharge section 14.

FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing the steps leading up to the discharge of defective products as described above. Upon receiving a temperature signal from the infrared camera 13, the temperature detection section 12 inputs temperature data TA to the temperature difference judgment section 15. However, if there is a temperature difference of more than a predetermined temperature in each part of the paper container, or if there is a part with a temperature higher than the set value, a defective product signal TB is manually sent to the defective product discharging section 14, and the defective product is ejected. It will be done. The belt conveyor drive synchronization signal 16 is input to the temperature detection section 12 and the defective product discharge section 14, and when a defective product is detected by the temperature detection section 12, the belt conveyor drive synchronization signal 16 is synchronized with the speed at which the belt conveyor moves. The paper containers are discharged in the process of the defective product discharge section 14. Here, the shape and size of the paper container are not particularly limited, but if the outer surface has a metallic luster,
It must be made of paper because it reflects infrared rays from the outside, making temperature measurement impossible.

Also, instead of hot air, it is possible to simply bring a hot plate close to the device, but while this simplifies the device, it also has the disadvantage that it takes a long time to warm up. In addition.
