Description

Application area

The utility model is intended for capping milk and sour-milk products in polymeric containers - cups and can be used at food industry enterprises.

State of the art

Currently, at the enterprises of the food industry there is a wide variety of containers for packaging dairy products: bags, bottles, jars, foil, film and much more - all kinds of shapes, colors, sizes and from various materials. But one of the most convenient, practical and economical packages for yoghurt, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream cheese and other dairy products is invariably plastic jars and glasses. Moreover, capping in this polymer container is carried out in two main stages - dosed packaging of the product and subsequent hermetic sealing of the foil.

The prior art various devices that are implemented on this basis. Moreover, these devices perform only one of the above stages of operations without a set of signs of mechanisms that combine sealing and packaging of containers. For example, there is a known installation for filling liquid products [1], intended for filling liquid products of food, medical and technical purposes and containing a stand for containers on which a metering cylinder is fixed using two height-adjustable racks.

The disadvantages of this installation include the inability to create the required fixation of the installation as a whole with the creation of an optimal installation for a strictly horizontal position. A complex drawback is the lack of packaging sealing mechanism in the installation, which requires additional equipment, which in turn causes certain difficulties in setting up a complex of devices and generally affects the performance of the process. One-position carriage creates inconvenience

empty and extraction of sealed cups.

The closest solution is the manual installation of welding the foil or film of plastic cups [2] with a two-position carriage, designed for hermetically welding plastic caps or aluminum foil lids coated with thermal varnish to plastic cups. During the operation of the installation, the operator filled the product cup by hand, manually installs it in the cell of the welding unit, covers it with a lid and transfers the movable carriage to the welding position. By lowering the welding head with the handle of the rack, the operator, according to the indicators of the timer, welds the container with the lid, and then returns the rack handle to its original position. Then the operator pulls the carriage by the handle onto himself, takes out the sealed container and sets the next one.

The disadvantages of this device include the impossibility of creating the required fixation of the installation as a whole with creating an optimal horizontal position for the installation, the manual method of packaging sealing using shutter speed by visual observation of the operator (without a temperature regulator and time switch), which can lead to unequal manufacturing packaging of the product as a whole, which means that it can significantly reduce the quality of storage of the finished product due to the influence of the human factor. The principle of moving the 2-position carrier carriage is irrational - along the forward / backward guide, which can cause the carriage stop or the carriage does not move to the end with a sharp uneven pulling or pressing of the carriage, which in turn will cause work stops (pauses) and marriage , which leads to a decrease in production volumes.

Technical result: a faster and more stable process of capping, installation and removal of containers is achieved.

Figure 2 shows the principle of operation of the installation with alternate shift of the carriage to the left

and to the right.

Utility Model Implementation

The claimed technical result is achieved by the fact (see Fig. 1) that the packaging and packing installation, made in the form of a tabletop construction on the platform of which is fixed: a movable carriage 2, comprising an insert 15 for containers 19, a sealing mechanism 3 and a guide 13, a temperature regulator 7 and time relay 8, characterized in that the platform has screw supports 5 that allow you to adjust the horizontal position of the device when installed on the desktop, the carriage 2 is configured to move through the sealing mechanism 3 from left to right in the direction boiling 13, the carriage 2 comprises two stops 18 on the left and the right end, and the number of inserts 15 for the container 19 in the carriage two is satisfied. The device is additionally equipped with a store of 4 platinkas, which allows you not to waste operator time for their handling outside the work area. The sealing mechanism may include a protective cover 17.

Capping of cups 19 is carried out by thermal sealing of the neck of the cups with platinum aluminum foil. Moving the 2-position carrier carriage 2, installing empty and removing sealed cups, applying an aluminum plate after dosing, and also activating the sealing operation are carried out by the operator in manual mode. Moving the 2-position carrier carriage 2 from left to right and back, while capping and installing empty / removing capped cups, allows you to speed up the capping process and increase production volumes manually.

The presence of stoppers 18 in the guide allows the operator not to monitor how correctly the carriage 2 is pushed or pulled out. The operator does this by abrupt movements of the carriage all the way to the left or right (see Figure 2), and while he is busy setting up an empty or by notching the sealed cup 19, a capping process occurs. The problems as in the prototype [2] with a possible carriage stopper or carriage displacement are not completely under sharp uneven pulling or indentation of the carriage, the claimed solution does not have.

The packaging and packing installation, in accordance with FIG. 1, is a tabletop structure, on the platform 1 of which are fixed: a movable carriage 2, a sealing mechanism 3 with a protective casing 17 and a guide 13. The device is equipped with a platen magazine 4, which is placed by the consumer on a table in work area.

The platform 1 has a screw support 5, allowing you to adjust the horizontal position of the device when installed on the desktop. This provides the required fixation of the installation as a whole with the creation of an optimal installation for strictly horizontal position.

Thus, the installation, possessing all of the above properties as a whole, allows you to give a faster and more stable process of corking, installation and removal of containers.

The cup filled with the product is installed in the left free (right) liner 15 of the carrier carriage 2 and covered with a platinum from the plate store 4. Then the carriage 2 is manually shifted to the right (left) to the stop 18, the cup falls into the sealing position, and the latch 6 is released. Temperature and the sealing time is set by the temperature controller 7 and the time relay 8. When the “START” button 9 is pressed, the sealing is done automatically: ironing 10 by pressing the electromagnet 11 with the lever system presses the platinum onto the upper flange of the cup. At this free second position of the carriage, another cup filled with the product is set at this time and covered with a platinum. After the set shutter speed, the iron 10 rises, the carriage moves in the corresponding direction until it stops. The sealed cup is removed from the liner, the cup filled with the product is reinstalled on the vacated seat, the process is repeated.

The operations of installing the cup, laying the platinum on the flange of the cup, moving the carriage and removing the sealed cup are done manually.

The device is configured to work with cups of a certain diameter, for example, 95 mm. To configure the work with cups of a different diameter, for example, 75 mm, it is necessary to replace the magazine 4 and the inserts 15 on the carriage 2 at the corresponding mounting points from the delivery. Replacing the liners is done by removing the carriage 2 with the guide 13 and loosening the corresponding screws.

When reinstalling the carriage provide a reliable setting of the latch 6 and the installation of the stops 18 in the operating positions of the carriage 2.

To protect against mechanical and thermal effects on the operator, the sealing mechanism 3 has a protective cover 17.

The principle of operation of the device.

A cup filled with the product from the consumer’s drive is set manually to a free position and covered with a platinum from the store 4. Both positions on the carriage

2 are intended for loading - unloading and sealing.

By shifting the carriage 2 to the right or left until it stops 18, the cup falls into the sealing position. The “START” button is pressed, the 16 “CYCLE” indicator lights up. Sealing is controlled visually. At the same time, a new cup filled with the product is manually set to another position and covered with a platinum;

If a sealed cup is present at the position, it is preliminarily taken from the insert 15 of the carriage 2 and sent by the operator to the consumer's finished product storage, and the filled cup is reinstalled to the vacated place; The carriage 2 moves in the opposite direction to the stop. Further, all steps are repeated cyclically.
