Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for cleaning at least one filling head without disassembly thereof.
  • the check valve is mechanically opened by the introduction of a manifold comprising an element capable of mechanically controlling the opening of the check valve and thus making it possible in particular to clean the filling head in the usual direction of flow,
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a device which is permanently ready to ensure the discharge of the product flowing out of the usual filling function, in particular during cleaning, and which can be put in the position of evacuation by a simple operation that does not significantly affect the size of the filling heads.
  • each filling head comprising a movable check valve which can be held in the open position by mechanical means further comprising a fixed collecting element disposed around the filling head, each collecting element comprising an opening arranged directly above the filling head and suitable for receiving a closure element controlling the opening of the check valve when it is placed in the opening of the manifold.
  • the closure element comprises an annular flange pressing on a retractable sleeve disposed in the filling head, the flange comprising at least one radial opening and the retractable sleeve comprising a control rod. the opening of the valve held by a centering ring disposed in the supply duct,
  • the closure element comprises an annular seal cooperating with the internal wall of the collector which is associated with it and each closure element is mounted on the associated collector by means of bayonet devices which can rotate freely on the shutter element.
  • the various collecting elements can be joined by an evacuation pipe. tion joining the various collecting elements and leading to a single discharge orifice.
  • the device comprises a supply line 1 on which is mounted an electromagnetic control 2 known per se.
  • a filling head body 3 At the end of the supply pipe 1, a filling head body 3 has been fixed, surrounded over a part of its height by a collecting element 4 on which are fixed discharge pipes 5 opening into an internal cavity. of the collector element.
  • the external wall of the collecting element 4 has flat portions 6 joined by substantially cylindrical walls 7 comprising a flange 8.
  • the closure element 9 comprises a movable ring 10 comprising, symmetrically with respect to the axis of the filling head, arms 11 each ending in a tooth 12 capable of cooperating with the flange 8.
  • the. filling head includes a ball-shaped check valve 13 capable of cooperating with a valve seat 14.
  • a sleeve Inside the filling head, which has a substantially circular section, a sleeve has been placed retractable grid holder 15 supporting a barrel 16 and a series of anti-foam grids 17.
  • the sleeve further comprises a substantially diametral arch 18 extended at its upper part by a substantially axial control rod 19 extending in a centering ring 20 comprising radial fins 21 forming a stop for a return spring 22 held in compression between the radial fins 21 on the one hand and the substantially horizontal upper surface of the arch 18.
  • the outer surface of the retractable sleeve 15 further comprises a shoulder 23 which, for a normal operating position of the filling head abuts against an annular seal 24 disposed in an internal groove at the end of the filling head.
  • the closure element 9 comprises a substantially circular body 25 comprising at its periphery an annular seal 26 cooperating with the substantially cylindrical internal wall 27 of the collecting element 4.
  • a connecting element 28 is fixed to the lower part of the body 25 of the closure element and carries a fixed end disc 29 thus creating a space between the body 25 of the closure element and the disc 29 in which is arranged the movable ring 10.
  • the body of the closure element 25 comprises an annular flange 30 whose upper rim abuts against the lower end of the movable sleeve 15 during the insertion of the closure element in the internal cavity of the collecting element.
  • the collar 30 is pierced with radial slots 31.
  • valve 13 In connection with the left-hand part of FIG. 2, it can be seen that during normal use of the filling head, the valve 13 normally rests on its seat from where it can be lifted by the usual usual filling control means. , the control rod 19 being kept spaced from the check valve by the spring 22 which simultaneously maintains a seal between the retractable sleeve - 15 and the body of the filling head in ap firmly drawing the sleeve 15 on the annular seal 24. During the operation of the valve opening control, the product contained in the supply line can therefore flow between the fins 21 of the centering ring 20 and then through the grid-carrying sleeve 15 up to the container placed under the filling head.
  • the arms 11 of the bayonet device of the closure element are arranged opposite the flats 6 and the body 25 of the closure element can then penetrate into the cavity of the collecting element 7.
  • the ring 10 is then turned so that the teeth 12 come coincident with the rim 8 and the closure element is thus held in place.
  • the product held in the feed column 1 then flows on the one hand through the grid-carrying sleeve and the ports 31 and on the other hand around the grid-carrying sleeve between the latter and the internal wall of the filling head then is evacuated by the evacuation pipes 5 to the outlet orifice (not shown) of these pipes.
  • the device according to the invention can be used in connection with different types of filling heads.
  • the filling heads not comprising a grid-carrying sleeve
  • a control rod mounted directly on the body of the shutter element so that when the element is introduced. obturation in the cavity of the collecting element, the check valve is maintained in the open position.
  • the collecting element may include a single discharge pipe connected directly to a container.
  • the closure element can be held in place by any suitable structure.
  • the vertical wall 6, 7 of the collecting element 4 extends downwards to a level at least equal to that of the lower edge of the filling spout (here the sleeve 5) in its normal position of use so that the lower edge of the spout is preferably set back and at most in the same plane as the edge of the opening of the collecting element.
  • the collecting element acts as a protective bell against the risks of external pollution by manual contact or any other means. This characteristic can be important in the case of aseptic filling operating in a sterile atmosphere. It is indeed imperative that the sterilization obtained during cleaning is not destroyed during subsequent handling.
