Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for the folding, aseptic filling and aseptic sealing of carton sleeves with: a transporting device comprising a conveyor belt and with cells connected to the conveyor belt for transporting the carton sleeves, a device for folding and conveying the carton sleeves to the cells of the transporting device, a device for sterilising the carton sleeves, a device for folding and sealing the bottom surfaces of the carton sleeves, a device for filling the carton sleeves with contents, a device for folding and sealing the gable surfaces of the packing casings, and with an aseptic chamber.
  • a transporting device comprising a conveyor belt and with cells connected to the conveyor belt for transporting the carton sleeves, a device for folding and conveying the carton sleeves to the cells of the transporting device, a device for sterilising the carton sleeves, a device for folding and sealing the bottom surfaces of the carton sleeves, a device for filling the carton sleeves with contents, a device for folding and sealing the gable surfaces of the packing casings, and with an aseptic chamber.
  • the invention also relates to a method for the folding, aseptic filling and aseptic sealing of carton sleeves comprising the following steps: a) folding and conveying the carton sleeves to cells fastened to a conveyor belt, b) sterilising the carton sleeves, c) folding and sealing the bottom surfaces of the carton sleeves, d) filling the carton sleeves with contents, and e) folding and sealing the gable surfaces of the carton sleeves.
  • the term “aseptic” presupposes in particular a microorganism reduction rate of the filling and packaging plant of at least four powers of 10 (at least four “log steps”; this corresponds to a reduction of at least 99.99%).
  • the microorganism reduction rate is determined on the basis of defined test methods using suitable test microorganisms. Not every plant with aseptic or sterile properties known from the prior art can therefore be regarded as “aseptic” in the meaning of the present invention.
  • Packagings can be produced in various ways and from a very wide range of materials.
  • One widely employed method is to produce a blank from the packaging material, from which first of all a carton sleeve is formed by folding and further steps, and finally a finished packaging is formed.
  • This variant has inter alia the advantage that the blanks are very flat and can therefore be stacked in a space-saving manner. In this way the blanks and carton sleeves can be produced at a site other than that in which the folding and filling of the carton sleeves takes place.
  • material composites are often used, for example a composite consisting of several thin layers of paper, cardboard, plastic or metal.
  • Such packagings are widely used in particular in the foodstuffs industry.
  • An improvement of the shelf life can be achieved by arrangements in which a sterilisation of the packagings takes place before the filling operation.
  • the state achieved by the sterilisation should be maintained.
  • the transporting means with which the packagings are transported for example conveyor belts or mandrel wheels—are often completely enclosed by a chamber. This has the aim of protecting the packagings from renewed contamination following their sterilisation.
  • Such a system is known for example from U.S. Pat. No. 4,590,734, U.S. Pat. No. 5,534,222 or U.S. Pat. No. 4,375,145.
  • Arranging the transporting means completely within a chamber has the disadvantage however that such chambers must occupy a very large volume that has to be completely sterilised or in any case has to be maintained sterile.
  • a further disadvantage of a complete enclosing of the transporting means by a chamber is the fact that the components disposed within the chamber are very difficult to access for cleaning, maintenance or repair work.
  • the transporting means cannot be lubricated in a conventional manner, since conventional lubricants, e.g. oil or grease, generally do not meet the hygiene requirements that have to be maintained in the chamber.
  • the volume to be sterilised can be reduced if the transporting means is not enclosed by a chamber along its whole path. Instead the packagings to be filled can be introduced together with the transporting means into an aseptic chamber and after the filling and possibly further steps can be removed again from this chamber. Such arrangements are therefore an aseptic “tunnel” rather than an aseptic chamber. Airtight locks are provided at the inlet and outlet of the tunnel, which are intended to ensure a sealing of the tunnel—for example by a “curtain” of sterile air. Such systems and methods are known for example from WO 2011/002383 A1. A problem remains however due to the fact that also the transporting means—at least in a partial region of the arrangement—are guided through the aseptic tunnel and in this way contaminants, for example in the form of lubricants or dust, could be introduced into the tunnel.
  • the object of the invention is to elaborate and develop the system mentioned in the introduction and described in more detail hereinbefore as well as the method mentioned in the introduction and described in more detail hereinbefore in such a way that, despite the most economical use of sterilising agents, an improved hygiene in the filling of composite packagings is achieved.
  • the invention is based on the idea that only the immediate surroundings of the carton sleeves to be sterilised have to be enclosed by the aseptic chamber.
  • the cells that carry and guide the carton sleeves should be arranged within the aseptic chamber, while the conveyor belt, to which the cells are connected, is arranged outside the aseptic chamber.
  • Cells are understood to mean any elements that are suitable for carrying carton sleeves, for example clamping elements, frames, containers or the like.
  • a conveyor belt is understood to mean any means that is suitable for moving the cells, for example belts, chains or the like.
  • An aseptic chamber is understood to mean a space that is suitable for screening a specific volume, in particular aseptic air, against an external environment, in particular non-aseptic air.
  • Sterile i.e. largely microorganism-free conditions, can be achieved for example by the system described in WO 2010/142278 A1 and also by the method described therein.
  • the aseptic chamber comprises a wall with a slit running in the transportation direction.
  • This arrangement provides a structurally particularly simple possibility of enabling the cells to run within the aseptic chamber even though the conveyor belt runs outside the chamber.
  • the cells can be guided for example by a thin holding arm that extends outwardly from the conveyor belt through the slit into the interior of the aseptic chamber, where it is there connected to the cells.
  • the slit is closed tight with a seal.
  • the cells are arranged within the aseptic chamber.
  • the cells during the aforementioned steps and between the aforementioned steps are arranged the whole time within the same aseptic chamber. Since the cells are arranged within the aseptic chamber only in the hygienically particularly critical steps of sterilisation, bottom folding/sealing, filling and gable folding/sealing, the volume to be maintained sterile can be further reduced.
  • the cells are thus introduced before or during the sterilisation into the aseptic chamber, and during or after the gable folding/sealing are withdrawn again from the aseptic chamber.
  • This arrangement can also be described as an aseptic “tunnel”.
  • the conveyor belt runs all the time outside the aseptic chamber.
  • the inlet and outlet of the aseptic chamber are sealed. This can be achieved for example by a “curtain” of sterile air.
  • a further arrangement of the invention envisages that the system comprises a device for removing the filled and sealed carton sleeves from the cells of the transporting device.
  • the filled and sealed carton sleeves have to be removed from the cells of the transporting device so that the cells can receive new carton sleeves that have not yet been filled.
  • This can be effected for example by gripping arms that grasp the carton sleeves at the seams that are formed during the sealing of the gable surfaces and bottom surfaces (“fin seams”). To this end the gripping arms preferably follow for a short time the direction and speed of the conveyor belt.
  • the conveyor belt and the cells are arranged in a horizontal plane.
  • the carton sleeves are guided in a horizontal plane.
  • This has the advantage that the carton sleeves and where appropriate their contents are not subjected to vertical accelerations.
  • the arrangement in a horizontal plane has the advantage that all regions of the unit are equally easily accessible in order to carry out for example cleaning, maintenance or repair work.
  • the system comprises devices for the pre-folding of the bottom surfaces and gable surfaces of the carton sleeves.
  • those fold lines are formed that are located between adjacent bottom surfaces and adjacent gable surfaces, between bottom surfaces and adjacent side surfaces, and between gable surfaces and adjacent side surfaces. This procedure has the advantage of making the fold lines more flexible, so that the subsequent folding can take place more quickly, more simply and more precisely.
  • the system comprises at least one device for ejecting defective carton sleeves from the cells and—in so far as the device is arranged in the region of the aseptic chamber—from the aseptic chamber itself.
  • Defective carton sleeves can cause the system to stop. For example, a carton sleeve that is not folded properly could fall out of the cells. In addition an unsatisfactory folding could result in an insufficiently tight sealing of the bottom or gable.
  • a carton sleeve that has fallen out of the cell as well as a non-airtight packaging sealing could mean that the contents do not remain in the carton sleeve during the filling, but contaminate the system, necessitating a cleaning and disinfection of the system that often takes several hours.
  • This can be avoided by devices by which defective carton sleeves are sorted out and ejected.
  • sensors in particular optical sensors, are preferably provided that determine the state of the carton sleeves. Since it would be a complicated and expensive procedure to replace the defective carton sleeves by non-defective carton sleeves, it is instead proposed to suspend or at any rate temporarily stop the filling and the further processing steps in the region of that cell that contains the defective carton sleeve or no carton sleeve at all.
  • the system comprises a device for the final fabrication of the carton sleeves, in particular for attaching the flaps or tabs of the carton sleeves.
  • the final fabrication brings the already filled and closed carton sleeves into their ready-for-sale shape.
  • the projecting regions of packaging material (“flaps”) are attached during the final fabrication.
  • a fastening of the flaps can take place for example by treatment with hot air or adhesive.
  • the carton sleeves in the region of the final fabrication have already been removed from the cells.
  • the system comprises a device for the conditioning of the cells, in particular for cleaning, disinfecting and/or drying the cells.
  • the conditioning device is arranged between the device for removing the carton sleeves and the device for feeding the carton sleeves. This has the advantage that the cells in this region do not carry any carton sleeves, so that the cleaning, disinfection and drying of the cells can be carried out particularly thoroughly.
  • the device for filling the carton sleeves with contents is a carousel-type device.
  • the advantage of a carousel for the filling is above all a more compact design and construction of the system, since also the region in which the conveyor belt reverses direction is utilised for filling the carton sleeves.
  • the carousel has co-rotating filling outlets.
  • the afore-described object is achieved in that the cells at least in a partial region of the method are guided through an aseptic chamber, while the conveyor belt is guided outside the aseptic chamber.
  • an advantage of having the conveyor belt outside the aseptic chamber is a more compact shape of the aseptic chamber and also an improved hygiene.
  • the cells are guided at least during the steps b), c), d) and e) through the aseptic chamber.
  • a restriction of the guidance of the cells in the aseptic chamber to the hygienically particularly critical steps of sterilisation, bottom folding/sealing, filling and gable folding/sealing means that the volume to be maintained sterile can be reduced.
  • the cells are for this purpose introduced before or during the sterilisation into the aseptic chamber and are removed again from the aseptic chamber during or after the gable folding/sealing.
  • a further teaching of the invention envisages that after step a) and before step b) the following step is carried out: aa) pre-folding of the bottom surfaces and/or of the gable surfaces of the carton sleeves.
  • those fold lines are formed that are located respectively between adjacent bottom surfaces and adjacent gable surfaces, between bottom surfaces and adjacent side surfaces, and between gable surfaces and adjacent side surfaces.
  • the purpose of this procedure is to make the fold lines more flexible, so that the subsequent folding can be carried out more quickly, more simply and more precisely.
  • the bottom surfaces as well as the gable surfaces are pre-folded before step b) (sterilisation). This has the advantage that dust produced in the pre-folding does not endanger the result of the sterilisation. It is also sufficient however if the bottom surfaces are pre-folded before step c) and if the gable surfaces are pre-folded before step e).
  • step a in particular after step aa) and before step b), the following step is carried out: ab) ejection of defective carton sleeves from the cells of the transportation device.
  • step c) and before step d) the following step is carried out: ca) ejection of defective carton sleeves from the cells of the transporting device and from the aseptic chamber.
  • An ejection of defective carton sleeves has in particular the already described advantage that the system operates more reliably and as far as possible without interruptions.
  • the carton sleeves are guided during step d) along a circular path.
  • the guidance of the carton sleeves along the circular path has the advantage of a more compact design and construction of the system.
  • the carton sleeves are guided in an inclined manner in the region of the filling device.
  • a further modification of the invention envisages that after step e) the following step is carried out: f) removal of the filled and sealed carton sleeves from the cells of the transportation device.
  • the removal of the carton sleeves in a system with a continuously circulating conveyor belt is necessary in order to be able to reload the cells with carton sleeves.
  • step f) the following step is carried out: g) final fabrication of the carton sleeves, in particular attachment of the flaps of the carton sleeves.
  • final fabrication the carton sleeves are brought into a ready-for-sale state.
  • step f) the following step is carried: h) conditioning of the cells of the transporting device, in particular cleaning, disinfection and/or drying the cells of the transporting device.
  • step f) the following step is carried: h) conditioning of the cells of the transporting device, in particular cleaning, disinfection and/or drying the cells of the transporting device.
  • the hygiene of the method can be improved further.
  • the steps g) (final fabrication) and h) (conditioning) can take place simultaneously, since the carton sleeves in the final fabrication are already no longer contained in the cells that are to be conditioned.
  • a particularly more uniform and thus less wear-affected operation can be achieved if, according to a further modification of the method, the conveyor belt and the cells have a constant speed.
  • the speed of the conveyor belt is changed, the speed always being greater than zero.
  • a cyclical variation of the speed in particular a fluctuation about a mean value, may be envisaged.
  • the conveyor belt should thus at no time be stopped, as would be the case in an intermittent operation.
  • a cyclical variation of the speed of the conveyor belt permits an optimisation of specific process steps, for example the introduction of the carton sleeves into the cells.
  • a continuous inflow of sterile air takes place within the aseptic chamber.
  • the aseptic chamber cannot be closed in an absolutely airtight manner during operation, despite seals and airlocks.
  • a continuous feed of sterile air into the aseptic chamber is proposed.
  • sterile air escapes in small amounts from the not completely airtight aseptic chamber. In this way the inflow of non-sterile air into the aseptic chamber is prevented.
