The injecting unit and the capping unit may be formed in the inside of a sealing unit formed to block the outside.

Description

{INJECTING AND CAPPING APPARATUS}

One embodiment of the present invention is directed to an injection and sealing device that seals the inlet of the container after injecting the beverage into the container while transporting the container.

PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a bottle made of polyethylene. It is light, does not break easily and can be recycled. It is widely used as container for drinking water and water.

Most beverage makers are equipped with PET bottling and sealing devices to produce beverages as well as to contain and seal manufactured beverages in PET bottles.

Under mass production, each functional part is mounted on a conveyor line while transferring a hollow PET bottle onto a large scale conveyor line. For example, the functional unit may include a beverage injection unit for injecting a beverage into a hollow PET bottle, a cap supply unit for capping and supplying a cap to an inlet of a PET bottle injected with beverage, and a capping unit for sealing the cap by rotating the cap at the entrance of the capped PET bottle . The beverage injecting portion, the cap supplying portion, and the capping portion are sequentially installed on the conveyor line in a large size.

That is, a large amount of PET bottles are transferred at a time, and a large amount of PET bottles are injected at a time in the beverage injecting unit, and the cap supply unit supplies a large amount of PET bottles at one time. To rotate and seal it. This is because, under mass production conditions, it is natural that the productivity drops when a small amount of PET bottles are injected and capped one by one.

However, it is difficult for small companies to use large PET bottle injection and sealing devices used by conventional beverage makers.

For example, in the case of a vendor that sells and sells the gono sap solution, or an operator who operates a honey farm, it is difficult to purchase a large-scale PET bottle injection and sealing device as well as to purchase it.

In this regard, there is a need to develop a small-sized PET bottle injection and sealing device that can be easily and easily used by small-sized vendors. However, if each of the above-described functional units is installed on the conveyor line, the first line becomes long and the whole apparatus becomes large. In addition, since the operation intervals of the second functional units are different from each other, Resulting in decreased productivity. Third, there arises a problem that it is difficult to adjust the intermittent transportation cycle of the PET bottle so that each functional part installed on the straight line conveyor line can operate on the PET bottles being transported.

To solve this problem, instead of arranging the respective functional units on a conveyor line in a line, the conveyor is divided into an inlet conveyor and an outlet conveyor, and a PET bottle rotary wheel capable of rotating the PET bottle between the inlet conveyor and the outlet conveyor An injection and sealing device was developed in which each functional part was installed in a radial sequence above the PET bottle rotating wheel after installation.

However, such a pouring and sealing apparatus requires a separate refining apparatus, and the pouring unit is opened, and there is a problem that foreign substances are introduced into the pouring apparatus when the beverage is poured. In addition, there is a problem that the injected beverage easily deteriorates due to a temperature change at each step of injection and sealing.

Accordingly, there is a need for a new injection and sealing device capable of maintaining the temperature while preventing the entry of foreign matter.

One object of the present invention is to provide a miniaturized injection and sealing device.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an injection and sealing apparatus having a more improved structure and having a complex function.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an injection and sealing apparatus comprising: a purifier for receiving a beverage from a storage container; An injection unit for injecting the beverage introduced from the refining unit into a container; And a capping part sealing the cap when the container is transported, wherein the injection part and the capping part may be formed inside the sealing part formed to shield from the outside.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the refining unit includes a filter for filtering the beverage; And a sterilizer to sterilize the filtered beverage.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus further includes a temperature holding unit for holding the inside of the closed unit at a predetermined temperature, wherein the temperature holding unit is interlocked with the sterilizer, and the temperature of the inside of the closed unit Lt; / RTI >

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the container further includes a storage unit configured to receive the sealed container from the capping unit and store the container, wherein the container can be moved by one conveyor from the injection unit to the storage unit .

According to an embodiment of the present invention, an opening / closing part is formed between the storage part and the sealing part, and the opening / closing part can open / close the sealing part by interlocking with the movement of the conveyor.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the open state of the opening and closing part, the temperature holding part is formed to move the container through the conveyor while stopping the operation, and the temperature holding part operates in the closed state of the opening and closing part, .

The injection and sealing apparatus according to at least one embodiment of the present invention configured as described above is provided with a reservoir and a refining apparatus so that a separate refining apparatus is unnecessary.

In addition, since the injection part for injecting the beverage into the container and the capping part for sealing the container are hermetically sealed, the problem of foreign matter entering outside the beverage can be prevented.

In addition, it is possible to prevent the beverage from being deteriorated by maintaining the same temperature as that of the refining apparatus at each step of injection and sealing.

1 is a conceptual view of an injection and sealing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention;
2 is a conceptual view of an injection part according to an embodiment of the present invention;
3 is a conceptual view of a capping portion according to an embodiment of the present invention;

Hereinafter, the injection and sealing apparatus according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The suffix "module" and " part "for the components used in the following description are given or mixed in consideration of ease of specification, and do not have their own meaning or role. In the present specification, the same or similar reference numerals are given to different embodiments in the same or similar configurations. As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.

FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram of an injection and sealing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a conceptual view of an injection unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a conceptual view of a capping unit according to an embodiment of the present invention .

Referring to FIG. 1, an injection and sealing apparatus includes a purification unit 120, an injection unit 140, and a capping unit 150.

The refining unit 120 receives the beverage from the storage container 110 and includes the filter 121 and the pasteurizer 122 to purify the supplied beverage.

The filter 121 is formed to receive the filtrate and discharge the filtrate. The filter 121 filters the particulate matter from the liquid and filters chlorine or volatile organic chemicals and the like. The filter 121 first introduces a liquid such as a tree sap, and generally filters the debris and contaminants of a diameter of 10 micrometers or more contained in the liquid, so that the parts of the subsequent process can be operated normally, It is made of carbon treated with high heat and can absorb and remove the chlorine component, THM and volatile organic chemical dissolved in the liquid.

 Depending on the filtration ability of the filter 121, the amount of fibers contained in the filtrate may vary. In addition, resin filters, various functional filters, and the like for purifying pure water also purify impurities at an ionic level. Therefore, components such as various minerals, iron powders, sugar and other edible fibers contained in liquid for edible purposes are also filtered There is a risk that the nutrients as the edible liquid may be removed. In addition, when a filtration filter having a high filtration ability is used, components contained in the filtrate are precipitated on the inner wall of the filtration apparatus during the purification of a large amount of fluid, so that the filtration rate is rapidly lowered, and the replacement cycle of the filter is extremely shortened Which is economically disadvantageous. Therefore, the sedimentation filter 121 used in the present invention is intended to maintain a level at which no variation occurs in the nutritional components by using a filter capable of filtering to molecules of 0.1 m or more. The material and kind of the filtrate for filtrate 121 are not limited, but a filtration type filter, an exchange type precipitation filter, a purification filter for purification and the like can be used.

The pasteurizer 122 is a device for sterilizing microorganisms and harmful bacteria remaining in the liquid and purifying the liquid to a level that can be consumed for food. Due to the characteristics of edible liquids, when heat treatment is performed at a high temperature, the dietary fiber contained in the liquid precipitates and the nutrients are destroyed and deformed, so that it is difficult to carry out the sterilization treatment by the high temperature heating method. Therefore, in the present invention, the sanitary fluid can be supplied by removing the harmful bacteria using the pasteurizer 122. Although the kind of the pasteurizer 122 is not limited, an ultraviolet sterilizer, a water purifier UV sterilizer, a low temperature heating sterilizer or the like can be used.

The injector 140 includes a tube connected to the refiner 120, a main body 131 of the injector 140 and a nozzle 132 formed to adjust the opening and closing of the beverage, (101). A plurality of nozzles may be provided for faster beverage injection. For example, when the first to third nozzles are provided, the first nozzle rapidly injects about 50% of the total injection amount into the vessel 101, and the second nozzle injects about 35% of the total injection amount into the vessel 101 And the third nozzle can inject the container 101 at a slow flow rate of about 15 percent of the total injection amount.

The capping portion 150 is provided with a cap 101a of the container 101. When the container 101 reaches a suitable position (lower portion of the cap), the cap 101 is fixed, .

Here, the injection part 140 and the capping part 150 are sealed by the sealing part 181. The sealing part 181 may be made of glass or a synthetic resin and seals the injection part 140 and the capping part 150 from the outside. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the foreign matter from being introduced when the beverage is injected.

Since the inside of the pasteurizer 122 is different from the external temperature, if the beverage injected into the container 101 undergoes a sudden temperature change, it may deteriorate. Therefore, in order to prevent the temperature of the beverage discharged from the paste-sterilizer 122 from changing, a temperature holding portion 170 for keeping the temperature inside the sealing portion 181 at a constant level is formed. The temperature holding unit 170 is interlocked with the pantosclerator 122 to maintain the temperature inside the enclosure 181 at a predetermined temperature of the pantosclerator 122. Thus, it is possible to prevent the beverage from being deteriorated by maintaining the same temperature as that of the refinery in each step of injection and sealing. The temperature holding unit 170 may include at least one of a cooling device and a heating device.

The storage unit 160 may be formed on one side of the capping unit 150 to receive the sealed container 101 from the capping unit 150 and store the container 101 therein. That is, the injection unit 140 may be formed on the other side of the capping unit 150, and the storage unit 160 may be formed on one side of the capping unit 150. At this time, the conveyor 140 can move from the injection unit 140 to the storage unit 160.

An opening / closing part 190 is formed between the storage part 160 and the sealing part 181. The opening and closing part 190 opens and closes the sealing part 181 in cooperation with the movement of the conveyor 140. [ That is, when the container 101 sealed by the capping unit 150 moves by a predetermined distance, the opening / closing unit 190 interlocked with the conveyor 140 operates to open the sealing unit 181. When the container 101 passes, the opening / closing part 190 operates and the closed part 181 is closed. That is, the opening / closing part 190 operates to open / close the closing part 181 according to the moving amount of the conveyor 140.

The control unit 180 controls the operation of each device constituting the injection and sealing device. The injection unit 140 and the capping unit 150 can operate normally when the moving amount of the conveyor 140 is correct.

The control unit 180 can link each device to the movement of the conveyor 140. Therefore, the temperature inside the sealing portion 181 can be more efficiently managed. That is, the control unit 180 may be configured to move the container 101 through the conveyor 140 while the temperature holding unit 170 stops operating while the opening and closing unit 190 is opened. On the other hand, the conveyor 140 may be configured to stop while the temperature maintaining unit operates while the opening and closing unit 190 is closed. As described above, by efficiently controlling the conveyor 140 and the devices, the operation efficiency of each device can be improved.

As such, the injection and sealing apparatus according to at least one embodiment of the present invention includes a reservoir and a purifier, eliminating the need for a separate purifier. The injection unit 140 for injecting the beverage into the container 101 and the capping unit 150 for sealing the container 101 are hermetically sealed to prevent the foreign matter from being introduced into the beverage when the beverage is injected. In addition, it is possible to prevent the beverage from being deteriorated by maintaining the same temperature as that of the refining apparatus at each step of injection and sealing.

It should be noted that the above-described injection and sealing apparatuses are not limited to the configurations and methods of the above-described embodiments, but the embodiments may be modified such that all or some of the embodiments are selectively combined .
