Description

Bec de remplissage à clapet et obturateur secondaire avec élément d' actionnement intercalaire Flap filler and secondary shutter with interlocking actuator
La présente invention concerne un bec de remplissage à commande électromagnétique. The present invention relates to an electromagnetically controlled filler nozzle.
On connaît, en particulier du document WO 01/40098, un bec de remplissage comportant un corps tubulaire dans lequel sont montés un clapet s' étendant en regard d'un siège de clapet et un obturateur secondaire qui est relié au clapet et s'étend en regard d'une restriction du corps tubulaire. L'ensemble clapet et obturateur secondaire est relié à un actionneur.  Document WO 01/40098 discloses a filling spout comprising a tubular body in which are mounted a flap extending opposite a valve seat and a secondary shutter which is connected to the flap and extends opposite a restriction of the tubular body. The valve and secondary shutter assembly is connected to an actuator.
Il existe des actionneurs de type vérin qui ont une tige relié au clapet et qui s'étendent à l'extérieur du corps tubulaire en amont du clapet. L'utilisation de ce type d' actionneur oblige à avoir un corps tubulaire de géométrie complexe pour permettre la liaison du vérin au clapet tout en préservant l'étanchéité du circuit de transport de liquide.  Actuators of the jack type exist which have a rod connected to the valve and which extend outside the tubular body upstream of the valve. The use of this type of actuator requires to have a tubular body of complex geometry to allow the connection of the cylinder to the valve while preserving the tightness of the liquid transport circuit.
Il est également connu des actionneurs électromagnétiques comportant un élément d' actionnement magnétique s' étendant en amont du clapet et relié au clapet par un organe d'accouplement axial. L' actionneur à commande électromagnétique comporte une bobine qui s'étend à l'extérieur du corps tubulaire et qui est alimenté de manière à engendrer un champ magnétique susceptible de déplacer l'élément d' actionnement magnétique. L'accès à l'élément intérieur d' actionnement , par exemple à des fins de maintenance, nécessite alors de vidanger tout le circuit.  It is also known electromagnetic actuators comprising a magnetic actuating element extending upstream of the valve and connected to the valve by an axial coupling member. The electromagnetically actuated actuator has a coil which extends outside the tubular body and which is energized to generate a magnetic field capable of moving the magnetic actuating element. Access to the internal actuating element, for example for maintenance purposes, then requires draining the entire circuit.
Un but de l'invention est de proposer un bec de remplissage résolvant les problèmes ci-dessus.  An object of the invention is to provide a filling nozzle solving the above problems.
A cet effet, on prévoit, selon l'invention, un bec de remplissage comportant un corps tubulaire dans lequel sont montés un clapet s' étendant en regard d'un siège de clapet et un obturateur secondaire disposé en aval du clapet et relié à celui-ci, le corps comportant une restriction en regard de l'obturateur secondaire, un élément intérieur d' actionnement magnétique étant relié au clapet et associé à des moyens extérieurs d' actionnement agencés pour déplacer l'élément intérieur entre une position de fermeture du clapet et une position d'ouverture du clapet, caractérisé en ce que l'élément intérieur d' actionnement est monté entre le clapet et l'obturateur secondaire et le bec comprend des moyens d'accès à l'élément intérieur d' actionnement . For this purpose, provision is made, according to the invention, a filling spout comprising a tubular body in which are mounted a valve extending against a valve seat and a secondary shutter disposed downstream of the valve and connected thereto, the body having a restriction facing the secondary shutter, an inner magnetic actuating element being connected to the valve and associated with external means of actuator arranged to move the inner member between a closed position of the valve and an open position of the valve, characterized in that the inner actuating element is mounted between the valve and the secondary valve and the nozzle comprises access means to the inner actuating element.
Ainsi, il est possible d'accéder à l'élément intérieur d' actionnement sans devoir vidanger la totalité du bec de remplissage (le clapet obturant celui-ci) et le circuit de transport de liquide auquel le bec de remplissage est raccordé.  Thus, it is possible to access the inner actuating element without having to drain all of the filling spout (the flap closing it) and the liquid transport circuit to which the spout is connected.
Selon une version avantageuse de l'invention, l'élément intérieur d' actionnement est relié à l'obturateur secondaire par des moyens d'attache amovible et la restriction est rapportée sur le corps tubulaire par des moyens d'attache amovible.  According to an advantageous version of the invention, the inner actuating element is connected to the secondary shutter by removable fastening means and the restriction is attached to the tubular body by removable fastening means.
Le clapet et l'obturateur secondaire sont ainsi montés dans des éléments de corps séparés reliés par un organe d'attache amovible permettant de réaliser rapidement différentes combinaisons de clapet et d'organe d'obturation pour adapter le bec de remplissage à différent diamètre de goulots des récipients à remplir ou à différentes viscosités de liquide.  The valve and the secondary shutter are thus mounted in separate body members connected by a removable fastening member for quickly achieving different combinations of valve and shutter member to adapt the filling spout to different diameter of necks. containers to fill or different viscosities of liquid.
Avantageusement, l'élément intérieur d' actionnement est relié au clapet par des moyens d'attache amovible et / ou le corps tubulaire comporte un tronçon détachable en regard de l'élément intérieur d' actionnement .  Advantageously, the inner actuating element is connected to the valve by removable attachment means and / or the tubular body comprises a detachable section facing the inner actuating element.
L'élément intérieur d' actionnement peut être désolidarisé du clapet dans le cadre d'une opération de maintenance, à des fins de nettoyage ou pour procéder à son remplacement. Le retrait du tronçon de corps tubulaire en regard permet d'accéder à l'élément intérieur d' actionnement et également de changer l'ensemble de l'actionneur pour le remplacer par des éléments de dimensions différentes par exemple. The inner actuating element can be disengaged from the valve in the course of a maintenance operation, for cleaning purposes or to replace it. The withdrawal of the tubular body section facing gives access to the inner actuating element and also to change the entire actuator to replace it with elements of different dimensions, for example.
Selon un mode d' actionnement particulier, l'élément intérieur comprend au moins un aimant permanent et les moyens extérieurs d' actionnement comprennent :  According to a particular mode of operation, the inner element comprises at least one permanent magnet and the external actuation means comprise:
au moins un aimant permanent en couplage magnétique avec l'aimant permanent de l'élément intérieur, et  at least one permanent magnet in magnetic coupling with the permanent magnet of the inner element, and
- des moyens de déplacement de l'aimant permanent des moyens extérieurs d' actionnement .  means for moving the permanent magnet of the external actuating means.
Ainsi, les aimants permanents permettent de relier l'actionneur extérieur et l'élément intérieur d' actionnement par un couplage magnétique. Le déplacement de l'élément intérieur d' actionnement ne résulte pas directement de la variation d'un champ magnétique auquel il est soumis mais est assuré par le déplacement de l'aimant permanent extérieur couplé magnétiquement à l'aimant permanent solidaire de l'élément intérieur d' actionnement . Bien qu'un actionnement électromagnétique soit tout-à-fait utilisable, une telle utilisation présente, d'une manière générale, des limites qui découlent principalement du fait que l'effort exercé sur l'élément intérieur d' actionnement par la bobine extérieur d' actionnement électromagnétique est directement proportionnel aux dimensions de cette dernière. Il en résulte un encombrement qui rend son implantation difficile autour des becs de remplissage qui sont reliés à des circuits de liquide dont la pression peut atteindre deux bars. En outre, la force du champ magnétique décroit avec la température prohibant l'utilisation des actionneurs à commande électromagnétique pour le remplissage des produits chauds. Un actionnement magnétique par aimant permanent ne présente pas ou dans une moindre mesure ces limites rendant son utilisation avantageuse. Thus, the permanent magnets make it possible to connect the external actuator and the internal actuating element by magnetic coupling. The displacement of the inner actuating element does not result directly from the variation of a magnetic field to which it is subjected, but is ensured by the displacement of the external permanent magnet magnetically coupled to the permanent magnet integral with the element. internal actuation. Although electromagnetic actuation is quite usable, such use generally has limitations which arise mainly from the fact that the force exerted on the inner actuating element by the outer coil of Electromagnetic actuation is directly proportional to the dimensions of the latter. This results in a footprint that makes it difficult to install around the filling spouts which are connected to liquid circuits whose pressure can reach two bars. In addition, the strength of the field magnetic decreases with temperature prohibiting the use of electromagnetically actuated actuators for filling hot products. Magnetic actuation by permanent magnet does not present or to a lesser extent these limits making its advantageous use.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, l'élément intérieur comprend un support ayant des parties voisines d'une paroi délimitant le corps tubulaire et des parties en retrait de ladite paroi, l'élément comportant un aimant permanent dans chacune des parties voisines, et de préférence :  According to a particular embodiment, the inner element comprises a support having portions adjacent to a wall delimiting the tubular body and portions set back from said wall, the element comprising a permanent magnet in each of the neighboring parts, and preference :
- le support a une section transversale rectangulaire ayant des petits côtés formant les parties voisines,  the support has a rectangular cross-section with small sides forming the neighboring parts,
- la paroi du corps tubulaire présente un contour circulaire .  - The wall of the tubular body has a circular contour.
Ce mode de réalisation possède une structure simple à réaliser. En outre, l'élément intérieur d' actionnement et le corps tubulaire ont des sections transversales permettant de ménager des passages important pour le liquide, limitant le risque de turbulences risquant de perturber l'écoulement.  This embodiment has a simple structure to achieve. In addition, the inner actuating element and the tubular body have cross sections to provide important passages for the liquid, limiting the risk of turbulence may interfere with the flow.
Avantageusement, l'obturateur secondaire et la restriction présentent des dimensions relatives et un positionnement relatifs tels que, lors de la fermeture du clapet, l'obturateur secondaire présente avec la restriction un jeu juste suffisant pour retenir par capillarité un liquide contenu dans le corps entre le clapet et l'obturateur secondaire.  Advantageously, the secondary shutter and the restriction have relative relative dimensions and positioning such that, when the shutter closes, the secondary shutter has, with the restriction, a clearance that is just sufficient to retain by capillarity a liquid contained in the body between the valve and the secondary shutter.
Sans risquer d'interférer avec l'action de fermeture du clapet, on maintient ainsi dans le bec de remplissage une quantité de produit suffisante pour éviter un défaut de formation du jet de produit lors de l'ouverture du clapet. Without the risk of interfering with the closing action of the valve, it thus maintains in the filling spout a quantity of product sufficient to avoid a lack of formation of the jet of product when the opening of the flap.
De préférence alors, l'élément intérieur est relié au clapet par un organe d'accouplement présentant un jeu axial.  Preferably then, the inner member is connected to the valve by a coupling member having an axial play.
Il est de la sorte possible d'avoir une ouverture décalée du clapet et de l'obturateur secondaire.  It is thus possible to have an offset opening of the valve and the secondary shutter.
De préférence encore, l'organe d'accouplement présente également un jeu radial.  More preferably, the coupling member also has a radial clearance.
Ceci permet d'augmenter les tolérances de fabrication et de simplifier le montage.  This makes it possible to increase the manufacturing tolerances and to simplify the assembly.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront encore à la lecture de la description qui suit d'un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention et de différentes variantes de celui-ci, en référence aux figures ci-jointes parmi lesquelles :  Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the following description of a particular embodiment of the invention and of various variants thereof, with reference to the attached figures among which:

Les parties de guidage 4.1 du support 4 assurent un guidage précis du support 4 à l'intérieur de l'élément de corps 1.2 et définissent avec les parties en retrait 4 des passages permettant l'écoulement d'un produit entre le support 4 et la face interne de l'élément de corps 1.2. Dans les parties de guidage 4.1 sont logés des aimants permanents 5. L'élément de corps 1.2 est réalisé en matériau amagnétique, et est entouré par un aimant permanent annulaire 6 monté pour coulisser sur l'élément de corps 1.2 et associé à un actionneur 7. L'actionneur 7 est un actionneur électromagnétique linéaire ayant une tige reliée à une extrémité d'un levier coudé 8 qui est monté sur le bâti 100 pour pivoter autour d'un axe perpendiculaire au bec de remplissage et qui possède une extrémité opposée pourvue d'une fourchette 9 engagée sur un coulisseau annulaire 10 qui est monté sur l'élément de corps 1.2 et sur lequel repose l'aimant permanent annulaire 6. Les moyens extérieurs d' actionnement comprennent une butée 29 réglable en position le long du corps tubulaire 1 pour définir une position inférieure du coulisseau 10. La butée 29 comprend ici une vis d'axe parallèle au corps tubulaire 1, qui est engagé dans le coulisseau 10 et prend appui sur le bâti 100. The control function is provided by an internal magnetic actuating element 3 mounted to slide in the body member 1.2. The magnetic actuating element 3 comprises a support 4 having guide portions 4.1 adjacent to the wall of the body member 1.2 and recessed portions 4.2. The support 4 here has a rectangular section having small sides forming the guide portions 4.1. The guide portions 4.1 of the support 4 provide precise guidance of the support 4 inside the body member 1.2 and define with the recessed portions 4 passages for the flow of a product between the support 4 and the inner face of the body element 1.2. In the guide portions 4.1 are housed permanent magnets 5. The body member 1.2 is made of non-magnetic material, and is surrounded by an annular permanent magnet 6 mounted to slide on the body member 1.2 and associated with an actuator 7 The actuator 7 is a linear electromagnetic actuator having a rod connected to an end of a bent lever 8 which is mounted on the frame 100 to pivot about an axis perpendicular to the filler spout and which has an opposite end provided with a fork 9 engaged on an annular slider 10 which is mounted on the body member 1.2 and on which the permanent magnet rests 6. The outer actuating means comprise a stop 29 adjustable in position along the tubular body 1 to define a lower position of the slider 10. The stop 29 here comprises a screw axis parallel to the tubular body 1, which is engaged in the slider 10 and bears on the frame 100.
L'élément de corps 1.1 contient un clapet 11, ici en forme de bille, qui est associé à des moyens d'accouplement, ici une tige de commande 15, reliant le clapet 11 à l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3 et qui est monté pour coulisser dans un alésage cylindrique 12 de l'élément de corps 1.1. La tige de commande est vissée dans le support 4 et dans le clapet 11. A sa partie inférieure, l'alésage 12 comporte un chanfrein 13 formant un siège pour le clapet 11 et est creusé de canaux longitudinaux 14 s' étendant en amont du chanfrein 13 pour permettre le passage du liquide lorsque le clapet 11 est en position ouverte.  The body element 1.1 contains a valve 11, here ball-shaped, which is associated with coupling means, here a control rod 15, connecting the valve 11 to the inner actuating element 3 and which is slidably mounted in a cylindrical bore 12 of the body member 1.1. The control rod is screwed into the support 4 and into the valve 11. At its lower part, the bore 12 comprises a chamfer 13 forming a seat for the valve 11 and is hollowed with longitudinal channels 14 extending upstream of the chamfer 13 to allow the passage of the liquid when the valve 11 is in the open position.
L'élément de corps 1.3 contient un obturateur secondaire 21 qui est fixé par des moyens d'accouplement à l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3. Les moyens d'accouplement comprennent par exemple une tige 22 ayant des extrémités vissées respectivement dans l'obturateur secondaire 21 et dans l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3. Dans ce mode de réalisation, l'obturateur secondaire 21 comporte une partie inférieure conique 23 allongée s' étendant en regard d'une restriction conique 24 de l'élément de corps 1.3.  The body member 1.3 contains a secondary shutter 21 which is fixed by coupling means to the inner actuating element 3. The coupling means comprise for example a rod 22 having ends screwed respectively in the shutter In this embodiment, the secondary shutter 21 has an elongate conical lower portion 23 extending facing a conical restriction 24 of the body member 1.3.
Pour le montage du bec de remplissage, le clapet 11 pourvu de la tige de commande 15 est monté dans l'élément de corps 1.1. L'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3 et l'élément de corps 1.2 sont ensuite montés, puis l'obturateur secondaire 21 et l'élément de corps 1.3. Dans la position fermée du bec de remplissage comme illustré par la figure 1, on notera que les dimensions et le positionnement relatif de la partie conique et de la restriction 24 sont prévues pour que dans la position fermée du clapet comme illustré, la partie conique 23 de l'obturateur secondaire soit espacée de la restriction 24 avec un jeu juste suffisant pour retenir par capillarité le produit contenu dans les éléments de corps 1.2 et 1.3. La butée 29 réglable en position le long du corps tubulaire 1 pour définir une position inférieure du coulisseau 10 permet de régler la position inférieure de l'élément intérieur 3 et donc de l'obturateur secondaire 21 par rapport à la restriction 24. For mounting the filling spout, the valve 11 provided with the control rod 15 is mounted in the body member 1.1. The inner actuating element 3 and the body element 1.2 are then mounted, then the secondary shutter 21 and the body element 1.3. In the closed position of the filling spout as illustrated in FIG. 1, it should be noted that the dimensions and the relative positioning of the conical portion and the restriction 24 are provided so that in the closed position of the valve as illustrated, the conical portion 23 the secondary shutter is spaced from the restriction 24 with a clearance just enough to retain by capillarity the product contained in the body elements 1.2 and 1.3. The stop 29 adjustable in position along the tubular body 1 to define a lower position of the slider 10 makes it possible to adjust the lower position of the inner element 3 and therefore of the secondary shutter 21 with respect to the restriction 24.
L'actionneur extérieur est commandé par un moteur pas à pas qui, en liaison avec le système de mesure de l'arrivée du produit dans le récipient à remplir, assure que le flux reçu est conforme à celui programmé. On notera en outre que, lors d'une opération de maintenance, l'opérateur peut ouvrir le clapet en agissant à la main sur l'aimant permanent 6.  The external actuator is controlled by a stepper motor which, in connection with the system for measuring the arrival of the product in the container to be filled, ensures that the flow received is in accordance with that programmed. Note also that, during a maintenance operation, the operator can open the valve by manually acting on the permanent magnet 6.
Dans le mode de réalisation illustré par les figures 1 et 2, la partie allongée 23 de l'obturateur secondaire 21 réalise avec la restriction 24 de l'élément de corps 1.3 un passage qui assure un maintien de l'écoulement du produit selon un régime laminaire. Un tel obturateur secondaire est utile pour le conditionnement de produit ayant tendance à mousser lors d'un écoulement turbulent tel que le lait.  In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the elongated portion 23 of the secondary shutter 21 produces, with the restriction 24 of the body element 1.3, a passage which ensures a maintenance of the flow of the product according to a regime. laminar. Such a secondary shutter is useful for packaging product having a tendency to foam during a turbulent flow such as milk.
La figure 5 illustre une autre variante de réalisation dans laquelle l'obturateur secondaire 31 a une faible hauteur, ce qui permet de diminuer l'encombrement de l'ensemble obtenu lorsqu'il n'est pas nécessaire d'assurer un écoulement laminaire du produit à la sortie du bec. FIG. 5 illustrates another variant embodiment in which the secondary shutter 31 has a small height, which makes it possible to reduce the bulk of the assembly obtained when it is not necessary to ensure a laminar flow of the product. at the exit of the beak.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et on peut y apporter des variantes de réalisation sans sortir du cadre de l'invention tel que défini par les revendications.  Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and variants can be made without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
En particulier, les moyens d'accouplement de l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3 ~ à l'obturateur secondaire et / ou les moyens d'accouplement de l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3 au clapet peuvent être rigides comme représentés aux figures 1 à 4 ou permettre un jeu axial et ou radial comme sur la figure 6. Dans ce dernier cas, les moyens d'accouplement comprennent un étrier en forme de C 30 relié au clapet 11 par une tige de liaison 31. Les ■ branches de l' étrier encadrent un pion 32 comprenant une tige 32.1 fixée au clapet 11 et une tête 32.2 engagée dans l' étrier 30. Le pion 32 est solidaire de l'organe d' actionnement magnétique 3, et la tige 32.1 et la tête 32.2 sont montées dans l' étrier 30 avec un jeu radial de sorte que le coulissement précis de l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3 dans l'élément de corps 1.2 et le coulissement précis du clapet 11 dans l'élément de corps 1.1 ne sont pas affectés même si les éléments de corps 1.1 et 1.2 ne sont pas montés de façon rigoureusement coaxiale. Il est ainsi possible de dissocier le clapet 11 et l'élément intérieur d' actionnement 3 par un simple décalage latéral de ceux- ci l'un par rapport à l'autre. On peut utiliser d'autres organes d'accouplement présentant un jeu radial, par exemple un organe d'accouplement à baïonnette. Un jeu axial permet d'obtenir des mouvements décalés dans le temps de l'obturateur secondaire 21 et du clapet 11. In particular, the means for coupling the inner actuating element 3 ~ to the secondary shutter and / or the coupling means of the inner actuating element 3 to the valve can be rigid as shown in FIGS. 4 or allow axial and radial play or as in Figure 6. in this latter case, the coupling means comprise a stirrup-shaped C 30 connected to the valve 11 by a connecting rod 31. ■ branches of yokes frame a pin 32 comprising a rod 32.1 fixed to the valve 11 and a head 32.2 engaged in the stirrup 30. The pin 32 is integral with the magnetic actuating member 3, and the rod 32.1 and the head 32.2 are mounted in the stirrup 30 with a radial clearance so that the precise sliding of the inner actuating element 3 in the body element 1.2 and the precise sliding of the valve 11 in the body element 1.1 are not affected even if the body elements 1.1 and 1.2 are not rigorously coaxial mounted. It is thus possible to dissociate the valve 11 and the inner actuating element 3 by a simple lateral shift thereof relative to each other. Other coupling members having a radial clearance, for example a bayonet coupling member, may be used. An axial clearance makes it possible to obtain time-shifted movements of the secondary shutter 21 and the valve 11.
En variante, le clapet 11 peut avoir une forme cylindrique, tronconique ou discoïdale et peut être pourvu d'une jupe dans laquelle sont réalisées des échancrures pour obtenir une évolution plus progressive du débit lors de l'ouverture ou de la fermeture du clapet . Alternatively, the valve 11 may have a cylindrical, frustoconical or discoidal shape and may be provided with a skirt in which are made of indentations to obtain a more gradual evolution of the flow when opening or closing the valve.
Le clapet 11 peut être pourvu d'un joint fixe ou mobile axialement.  The valve 11 may be provided with a fixed or axially movable seal.
L'élément intérieur d' actionnement a été représenté avec une section rectangulaire qui assure le passage du liquide de chaque côté alors que les aimants sont encapsulés aux extrémités près des parois de la chambre, ce qui facilite le nettoyage. L'élément intérieur d' actionnement peut avoir des sections d'autres formes, notamment cylindriques ou polygonales. On peut également envisager un élément intérieur d' actionnement percé en son centre avec des aimants encapsulés sur sa périphérie, les aimants conjugués étant situés sur toute la partie extérieure du tube ainsi formé.  The inner actuating element has been shown with a rectangular section which ensures the passage of liquid on each side while the magnets are encapsulated at the ends near the walls of the chamber, which facilitates cleaning. The inner actuating element may have sections of other shapes, in particular cylindrical or polygonal. It is also possible to envisage an inner actuating element pierced at its center with magnets encapsulated on its periphery, the conjugate magnets being located on the entire outside of the tube thus formed.
Pour des facilités de construction, on a retenu une chambre de section circulaire, mais on peut envisager une chambre de section polygonale.  For ease of construction, it has retained a circular section chamber, but can be considered a polygonal section chamber.
Bien que l'invention soit particulièrement adaptée à des systèmes de remplissage pondéral à débit programmé, l'invention est utilisable dans d'autres systèmes de remplissage comme des systèmes à cuve tampon à niveau constant.  Although the invention is particularly suitable for programmed flow weight filling systems, the invention is useful in other filling systems such as constant level buffer tank systems.
La structure des moyens d' actionnement ici décrits est indépendante de la disposition de l'élément intérieur entre le clapet et l'obturateur secondaire. Même si la structure ici décrite des moyens d' actionnement est particulièrement avantageuse dans l'invention, d'autres moyens d' actionnement , par exemple électromagnétiques, sont utilisables.  The structure of the actuating means described here is independent of the arrangement of the inner element between the valve and the secondary shutter. Even if the structure described here means of actuation is particularly advantageous in the invention, other actuating means, for example electromagnetic, are usable.
