Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the hygienic filling and closing of containers, in particular for bag-in-box packaging, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • bag-in-box packaging containers for food as well as for pharmaceuticals and other such products are concerned with aseptically and bacteriologically perfect closure of the filling and dispensing nozzle both before, during and after the completion of the filling process on automatic filling machines.
  • the invention has for its object to improve a device of the type mentioned in that with simple means both a hygienically perfect filling and a hygienically perfect tight seal especially of bag-in-box packaging with a flexible inner bag using an external adapter or the like is guaranteed on automatic filling machines.
  • the ring-shaped inner adapter can consist of a support ring with the inner dimensions of the filling and removal nozzle, which is provided with the sealing film and is inserted into the nozzle of the still empty container or bag.
  • the prefabricated external adapters can be fed to the closure device by means of a vibration transport rail or the like and can already be cleaned by spraying during this mechanical transport.
  • the inner adapters can also additionally improve the most complete possible emptying of the film bags, in particular of bag-in-box packaging, if they are provided with a drainage device on the inside of the bag.
  • This drainage device can be either a grid-shaped basket, a spiral spring, a folded material with drainage passages or the like, which can advantageously have a stop ring, a stop cap or the like for the opposite bag wall when emptying the packaging.
  • a cylindrical tube piece with a bottom and a precisely dimensioned drip opening into the inside of the bag in which case a so-called spacer ring, spacer or drainage feet, a stop cap or the like are provided which remove the bag film from the bag when the contents of the bag are suctioned off Keep the opening of the filling and dispensing nozzle away.
  • the inner adapter is thus formed with an annular support body, which is closed by a welding foil or the like, and the drainage device on the inside of the bag points.
  • This inner adapter is already inserted in the socket of the still empty bag, the sealing film is pierced during the filling process, and after the filling process is completed, the inner adapter with the drainage device is pushed so far into the socket that the outer adapter with the sealing cap is then mechanically inserted into the outside Stubs can be pushed or hammered in without the sealing of the outer adapter on the filling and removal nozzle being impaired in any way.
  • Two advantages are thus achieved, namely, on the one hand, a completely aseptic design of all closure parts on the bag packaging and, on the other hand, the greatest possible emptying of the bag contents when sucking off by means of a suction pump or the like.
  • the filling and removal nozzle 3 is covered with a sealing film 5, which is pierced at the beginning of the filling process by a cutting device 6 on the filling tube 7 of an automatic filling machine in order to release an external adapter 8 with one after the filling process attached sealing cap 9 sealingly push into the filling and removal nozzle 3.
  • the outer adapter 8 with the closure cap 9 can, as is indicated purely schematically in FIG.
  • the sealing film 5 is arranged as a so-called welding film on a ring-shaped inner adapter 10 with the inner dimensions of the filling and removal nozzle 3, which is inserted into the filling and removal nozzle 3 such that the Sealing film 5 before the filling process is first in the outer closure layer 10a shown in dash-dotted lines in FIG. 2 on the filling and removal nozzle 3 and can be pressed deeper into the nozzle during or after the completion of the filling process in such a way that the outer adapter 8 having the closure cap 9 in the socket 3 provided with inner sealing lips 11 can be used in a sealing manner.
  • the inner adapter 10 has a support ring 13 for the sealing film 5 which seals with its outer circumference 12 on the filling and removal nozzle 3 and which can be fastened thereon as a welding film.
  • the filling and removal nozzle 3 has at least one annular stop 14 for the inner adapter 10, on which the latter comes to rest in its recessed position 10b of FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the inner adapter 10 can also have a drainage device 15 which, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, protrudes beyond the end of the filling and removal nozzle 3 into the interior of the bag 16, at least when the inner adapter 10 is countersunk in the nozzle and when the contents of the bag are sucked off, the opposite bag wall 17 is kept at a distance from the nozzle 3, so as to prevent the internal nozzle opening 18 from being closed prematurely.
  • the drainage device 15 consists of a cylindrical basket 19 with an open bottom and a plurality of drainage openings 20 in the cylinder wall, through which the product 21 sucked out of the bag can also emerge when the bag 2 has already been emptied to such an extent that, as shown in FIG. 6, the film wall 17 opposite the nozzle 3 against the free end 22 of the drainage device 15 creates, but without closing the opening 18 on the container neck 3.
  • the drainage device on the inner adapter 10 shown with the sealing film 5 partially broken away can also consist of a spring body 23 protruding into the interior of the container or bag 16, such as a spiral spring 24 in FIG. 7 , or an inherently flexible tubular network body 25 in FIG. 8.
  • the spring body 23 serving as a drainage device 15 expediently has a stop ring 26 or a stop cap 26a, perforated in places, for the opposite bag wall 17, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is.
  • the drainage device 15 can also consist of a material 27 with side openings 28 folded parallel or obliquely to the axis of rotation of the ring-shaped inner adapter 10, and finally the inner adapter 10 can also have a bottom arranged at a distance from the sealing film 5 29 with an opening 30 of precisely defined cross-section toward the interior of the container or bag 16, from which individual spacer feet or knobs 31, but also a stop cap 26a or the like for the bag wall 17 protrude against the bag interior 16.
