- Embodiments of the invention provide a depositing apparatus suitable for depositing a filler substance such as, for example, a food filling.
- the depositing apparatus may be used, for example, to consistently deposit a set amount of food filling onto a conveyer line. It will however be appreciated that the depositing apparatus may also be used for other purposes, such as the deposition of other materials/substances/compositions.
- the depositing apparatus includes a housing with a filler inlet and a filler outlet, and a rotor member configured to rotate within the housing.
- the rotor member includes at least one passage extending therethrough, between at least two passage openings. Rotation of the rotor member moves at least one of the at least two passage openings into and out of alignment with the filler inlet and filler outlet.
- the rotor member is typically barrel shaped or substantially barrel shaped.
- a piston member positioned within the at least one passage moves with rotation of the rotor member. Generally, the piston member moves to allow filler substance to enter the passage when one of the passage openings align with the filler inlet and to expel received filler substance from the passage when one of the passage openings align with the filler outlet.
- the at least one passage typically extends between two opposite openings offset by 180° around the rotor member.
- the other of the openings is aligned with the filler outlet. Intake/expulsion of filler substance is thus simultaneous as when the piston member moves to allow space in the passage for filler substance to enter from the filler inlet, filler substance is pushed from the opposite passage opening out the filler outlet.
- the rotor member (barrel shaped or otherwise) typically includes a plurality of passages extending therethough, each including a respective piston member. This increases productivity as multiple filling deposits can be made simultaneously as the barrel rotates.
- the filler inlet is substantially upward facing and the filler outlet is substantially downward facing and the piston member/s slide along the passage/s under the force of gravity as the rotor member rotates.
- the piston members may be moved by means other than gravity.
- the piston members are specially shaped to minimize adherence of filler substance during filler deposition.
- the piston member/s are typically shaped to allow sliding movement of the piston member within the passage yet limit rotational movement of the piston member within the passage. This helps to avoid filler substance getting trapped between the inner wall of the passages and the pistons.
- the piston members generally have an axial cross section the shape of a circle having one or more minor segments removed.
- the piston members also typically have curved end surfaces which encourages filler adhered to end of the piston/s is wiped off (e.g. against the filler outlet) as the barrel rotates.
- Figure 1 shows one example of a depositing apparatus in accordance with the invention.
- the apparatus (1) is for depositing fillings into pies.
- the depositing apparatus in accordance with the invention may be used for other purposes.
- the apparatus (1) includes a housing (2) having a filler inlet (3) and a filler outlet (4/not shown).
- a barrel/rotor member (5) fits and rotates within the housing (2).
- the housing (2) has a substantially cylindrical inner cavity (12) to accommodate the barrel (5).
- the filler inlet (3) and outlet (4) are openings in the housing that lead into the cavity (12).
- the barrel includes four passages (6a, 6b, 6c and 6d) extending therethrough. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments the barrel may include any number of passages. Each passage (6a-d) extends between two passage openings (7a/8a, 7b/8b, 7c/8c, 7d/8d) in the curved surface of the barrel.
- the barrel (5) rotates within the housing (2) such that the passage openings (7a-d, 8a-d) move into an out of alignment with the filler inlet (3) and the filler outlet (4).
- each passage (6a-d) is a piston member (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d) that moves within the passage with rotation of the barrel (5).
- the pistons (9a-d) are typically of a length shorter than the passages such that they slide within the passages, between passage openings, as the barrel (5) is rotated. This provides space for filler substance to enter the passages (6a-d) through the filler inlet (3).
- the passages (6a-d) extend perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the barrel along a diameter of the barrel (5).
- This configuration allows that filler substance can be received from the passage openings (e.g. 7a-d) on one side of the barrel (5) whilst filler substance is simultaneously expelled from the passage openings (e.g. 8a-d) at the opposite side of the barrel (5).
- the filler inlet (3) is substantially upward facing and the filler outlet (4) is substantially downward facing. Therefore, as the passage openings on one side of the barrel (e.g. 7a-d) align with the filler inlet (3), gravity acts to move the piston members (9a-d) downwards towards the other passage openings on the opposite side of the barrel (e.g. 8a-d). This allows space for the filler substance to enter the passage via the passage openings (e.g. 7a-d) near to the filler inlet (3).
- each set of passage openings (e.g. 7a-d, 8a-d) repeatedly align with the inlet to receive filler substance and then align with the outlet for expulsion (4).
- the pistons always moving downward with gravity at the beginning of the intake/expulsion stage in the deposition cycle when they are at relative upper position in the barrel, near to the inlet. Generally, there is a pause in rotation to allow intake/expulsion of filler substance.
- the pistons may not move under the force of gravity but may be controlled by other means, such as mechanical/electrical/pneumatic/hydraulic means .
- a retainer plate (10) sits within the filler outlet (4) dividing the outlet (4) to into multiple openings (l la-d).
- the openings (l la-d) of the retainer plate are sized to stop the pistons (9a-d) falling from the passages out of the filler outlet (4).
- the retainer plate (10) typically includes openings having a circumference or cross sectional area slightly less than the pistons.
- the filler inlet (3), outlet (4), and retainer plate (10) may have a variety of configurations. For example, each may include a single or multiple openings.
- a retainer plate may not be included with the outlet itself shaped to prevent escape of the pistons.
- the length of the pistons, passages and/or diameter of the barrel may be variable to allow for different amounts of filler substance to be received by the passages with each deposition cycle. In this way the amount of deposited filling may be adjusted.
- the passage and piston members positioned therein are shaped to allow sliding movement of the piston members within the passages, they are typically shaped to limit rotational movement of the piston members within the passages. This helps to stop filler substance from getting stuck between the pistons and inner walls of the passages.
- the passages and piston members have a cross-section the shape of a major segment of a circle (see figures 2a-2c). The edges between the flat face (21) and curved surface (22) of the pistons engage with the passage walls to substantially prohibit rotational movements of the pistons.
- each piston member (9a-d) is curved. They are arcuate and have a radius of curvature that corresponds to the radius of curvature of the rotor member/barrel. This ensures that when a piston end moves toward and occupies a passage opening (e.g.7a-d, 8a-d), such as shortly after expelling filler substance from the passages, the end of the piston member and barrel outer surface form a substantially continuous smooth surface. This helps to ensure that minimal if any filler substance remains adhered to the end of the piston after deposition as any adhered filler substance is wiped against the rim of the filler outlet or retainer plate as the barrel rotates.
- a passage opening e.g.7a-d, 8a-d
- the radius of curvature of the ends of the pistons is between 60 and 80mm. In another example, the radius of curvature is about 75mm.
- a support or frame (15) supports the housing (2) such that the filler inlet (3) is substantially upward facing and the filler outlet (4) is substantially downward facing.
- the support (15) may include wheels to move the apparatus into and out of a working position, such as, for example, over a conveyer belt carrying pie pastry/bases.
- a drive means is configured to rotate the rotor barrel and may, for example, include a motor.
- the operation of the drive means may be controlled using a control/processing system (e.g. including controller, microcontroller, computer system, suitably designed circuitry etc.).
- the control/processing system is typically configured such that the barrel is automatically rotated in accordance with one or more pre programmed rotation sequences. It will be appreciated that control/processing system may control the barrel/rotor member rotation in a variety of ways such as, for example, rotation direction, speed, and/or time. It will also be appreciated that in basic forms or modes of operation the barrel rotated using handle (20).
- a hopper (17) is included to aid in loading filler substance and is connected above the filler inlet (3) such that filler substance moves into the passages under the force of gravity.
- a safety grate (18) may also be included on top of the hopper (17). The apparatus may be configured that opening the safety grate cuts power to the drive means stopping rotation of the barrel (5). This ensures that the barrel (5) is not rotating when a user has the safety grate removed and therefore, reduces the chance of injury to workers.
- the rotor member/barrel (5) may be rotated in accordance with a variety of operation modes or rotation sequences.
- the barrel may be rotated in one direction only with pauses when the passage openings (7a-d, 8a-d) align with the filler inlet (3) and outlet (4) to allow for intake and expulsion of filler substance from the passages (9a-d).
- Another example may have the barrel (5) continuously moving in a back and forth movement, with a half revolution (e.g. 180°) in one direction and a half revolution in the other direction.
- the passage openings would be aligned to receive/expel filler substance, the barrel rotated 180° in one direction (e.g. to move the passage openings in line with the inlet to be in line with the outlet and vice versa), more filler substance receive/expelled, and then the barrel rotated 180° in the other direction and so on in an overall back and forth movement.
- the rotation sequence of the barrel may also include an additional wipe sequence wherein, each time filler substance is deposited, the barrel is rotated in a first direction such that the passage openings are partially or completely offset/misaligned from the outlet and then rotated in the opposite direction passing over the outlet until the passage openings are again partially or completely offset/misaligned from the filler outlet.
- the wipe sequence thereby encourages any excess filler substance adhered to the end of the pistons to be scraped from the surface of the piston ends by the edge of the filler outlet or retainer plate. It will be appreciated that the wipe sequence may include any number of back and forth movements of the barrel to encourage removal of adhered filler substance.
- a wipe sequence may initiate after each filler deposition.
- the barrel may rotate counter-clockwise until the passage openings are completely offset from the filler outlet and then continue in the overall clockwise direction. This would ensure that any filler substance adhered to the depositing end of the piston would be wiped against the edge of the outlet/retainer plate. It will be appreciated that the wipe functionality would be further aided by the curved shape of the piston end, which keeps filler substance in line with the circumference of the outer surface of the barrel.
- passage openings may not be offset by 180°, and correspondingly, the rotational movements of the barrel may not be in 180° steps.
- the passages themselves may also have bends or corners therein to, for example, inherently slow the flow of filler substance therethrough.
- each passage within the barrel may be such that it has more than two openings.
- a passage may have four openings and the piston may be of a cross type shape.
- a passage may only have a single opening for receiving/expelling filler substance, with second opening simply for allowing air intake/outtake into the passage such that the piston is able to slide within the passage.
- piston shape is shown in figures 3 a and 3b.
- the piston is substantially cylindrical but (300) has two flat faces (301, 302) in its curved surface that result from two secant/chord cuts (i.e. the axial cross section of the piston is a circle with two minor segments removed).
- the piston may be any shape that limits rotation but allows sliding movement within the passages. For a substantially cylindrical piston this typically requires at least one edge in its curved surface in the axial direction.
- Preferred piston shapes have an axial cross section the shape of a circle with one or more minor segments removed.
- Figure 4 shows one example of a rotor barrel (400) suitable for use with the piston member (300) of figure 3.
- the cross sections of the passages (401a-d) are configured to fit the shape of the piston (300) (i.e. the passages have a cross section the shape of a circle with two minor segments removed).
- the passages of the rotor barrel are typically configured to match the required piston shape.
- the piston shape may not always have a substantially cylindrical base form.
- they may be prism shaped, such as, for example, square or triangular prism shaped.
- the pistons may also, for example, have an axial cross section the shape of a circle with one or more sectors removed.
- the depositing apparatus as described herein has significant advantages over conventional depositing devices.
- the apparatus is simple with minimal moving parts, which allow it to be easily disassembled for cleaning purposes or maintenance.
- the configuration/shape of the piston, rotor member and housing allow for a high level of consistency of deposited amounts of filler substance.
- Optional embodiments of the present invention may also be said to broadly consist in the parts, elements and features referred to or indicated herein, individually or collectively, in any or all combinations of two or more of the parts, elements or features, and wherein specific integers are mentioned herein which have known equivalents in the art to which the invention relates, such known equivalents are deemed to be incorporated herein as if individually set forth.
