Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the filling of a valve bag with dust-producing and/or hazardous material, and a valve bag, preferably of the so-called canister type, which is particularly suitable for such use.
  • Valve bags are generally used for the transport of various materials. When dust-producing and/or hazardous materials are involved, it is essential that there be no leakage of material to the surroundings when filling the bag with the material and in the subsequent handling. This results in problems especially in the filling operation, when large amounts of air pass into a bag together with the material at issue. The excess pressure arising in the bag involves great risks of leakage to the surroundings and prevents the filling operation from occurring at the desired speed.
  • DE-A-41 40 213 discloses a valve bag comprising a filler valve in one corner of one end of the bag and a ventilating valve in the other corner of said one end.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a new filling method and a valve bag which is especially suited for this, thereby alleviating the above-mentioned problems to a considerable degree.
  • the invention is thus based on the knowledge that emission of material from the bag to the surroundings - during and after filling - can be kept under extreme control while the filling operation can be carried out in a highly efficient manner by using a tight or non-perforated bag fitted with a special filtering ventilating valve in the bag corner opposite the normal corner-mounted filling valve of the bag, said filling valve being sealed immediately after the filling operation.
  • Final evacuation of air, for instance by conventional mangling of the filled bag is advantageously carried out after said sealing of the filling valve, thereby preventing emission of material through the filling valve both in connection with the ending of the filling operation and during the subsequent handling of the bag.
  • the filling valve can be sealed in various ways, for instance by means of an externally applied sealing strip or, which at present seems to be preferred, by means arranged inside the filling valve, the sealing effect of these means being achieved by applying, for instance, heat and/or pressure.
  • the ventilating valve according to the invention advantageously is a valve fitted with a filtering valve sheet which is transversely folded, its fold facing outwards from the interior of the bag.
  • a filtering valve sheet can be very easily mounted in substantially the same manner as a filling valve sheet (which is longitudinally folded) in a conventional so-called valve assembly in a bag-making machine.
  • the filtering valve sheet may advantageously be made of crepe filtering paper, although also non-woven fabric could be used.
  • Fig. 1 schematically illustrates the filling of a bag 1 according to the present invention.
  • a filling nozzle 3 is inserted into the filling valve 5 of the bag in one upper corner of the bag.
  • Material is injected under pressure through the filling pipe 3, also air being entrained and generating an excess pressure in the bag, which is here assumed to be completely tight, except for a ventilating valve 7 arranged in the other upper corner of the bag and consisting of a filtering sheet of paper 9 attached by gluing.
  • the ventilating valve is opened or expanded by the excess pressure so as to expose a large filtering surface, by the filtering sheet being given U-shape (in section), and air leaves through the base of the U, said base being non-glued and therefore being able to provide a large evacuation area.
  • the end of the filling pipe 3 is bent to impart to the injected material a direction obliquely downwards in the bag, i.e. away from the ventilating valve. It has surprisingly been found that a ventilating valve according to the invention does not tend to be quickly filled or clogged by injected material, but, on the contrary, yield efficient evacuation of air during the entire filling operation. No active sucking-out of air is necessary.
  • the filing pipe 3 can be pulled out of the filling valve 5 which can be immediately sealed, for instance by means of transversely applied bands of selectively activatable sealing material, advantageously of the hot-melt type. Then, a direct, active, terminating continued evacuation of air from the bag may take place through the ventilating air, preferably by mangling of the bag.
  • Figs 2 and 3 illustrate an example how to modify according to the present invention a conventional valve bag of the canister type. Since valve bags of this type are well-known, merely modifications which are important to the invention will be discussed in more detail.
  • Fig. 2 illustrates how an unfolded filling valve sheet 11 and a transversely folded filtering valve sheet 9 are glued on each side of the bag to the underlying flat-folded bag side flaps.
  • the glue layers of the filling valve sheet 11 are indicated at 13, 14, and the glue layers of the lower part of the filtering valve sheet 9 are indicated at 15.
  • the filtering valve sheet 9 has its transverse fold 17 on the outwardly facing side of the sheet.
  • the glue layer 15 begins at a considerable distance from the fold 17, such that a comparatively large non-glued area of the lower part of the sheet connects with the fold 17. This also applies to the upper part of the sheet 9, see Fig. 3.
  • the lower part of the filtering sheet 9 extends into the bag a shorter distance than does the upper part of the sheet.
  • the inner edge of the lower part is indicated at 19.
  • the innermost edge area of the lower part advantageously extends beyond the underlying side flap. Especially if this is not possible in view of the width of the bag, a corresponding recess can be formed in the side flap, thereby ensuring free exposure of the innermost edge area of the lower part of the filtering sheet 9.
  • Fig. 2 schematically shows also the arrangement of additional, transverse, selectively heat-activatable sealing agent bands 21, 22 on the underside of the filling valve sheet 11, i.e. inside the filling valve itself.
  • Fig. 3 shows how the bottom gluing can be carried out. It is apparent that the bottom glue layer 23 can basically be the same for the filling valve sheet 11 and the filtering valve sheet 9, although additional transverse glue bands 25, 26 are arranged for the inner part of the filtering sheet upper part, such that this is safely glued to the bottom of the bag and thus follows this, whereby the U-shaped opening (see Fig. 1) of the ventilating valve will be facilitated.
  • the upper part of the filtering sheet 9 has a comparatively large non-glued area connecting with the transverse fold 17.
  • the non-glued areas on both sides of the transverse fold 17 permit a large evacuation area to be formed, when the ventilating valve is opened from the inside into U-shape.
  • a bottom cover sheet (not shown) glued farthest out should either not cover the above-mentioned non-glued area or, non-glued, cover the same.
  • the bag is made of a tight or non-perforated material.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to use tight plastic bags, while maintaining the ventilating effect during filling.
  • a more efficient evacuation of air and no perforations may permit the use of thinner bag materials.
  • non-perforated bags generally leads to reduced emission while emptying the bags and handling the emptied bags.
