Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements brought to product packaging facilities in containers closed by a cap and comprising in particular a filling machine suitable for filling containers empty receipts and a capper supplied with corks for closing of filled containers.
  • thermoplastic PET for example
  • PET thermoplastic
  • a blower for molding the containers from the heated preforms, followed by the filler and of the aforementioned capper.
  • a incident in the supply of corks requires, for the troubleshooting operation, stopping the whole installation.
  • Preforms in progress heating in the oven and during blowing in the mussels are then lost; moreover, having regard to the temperatures very high and with thermal inertia, the preforms present in the oven and the blow molds may to melt and / or stick to the walls of the molds, so that the restarting of the installation must be preceded by inspection and cleaning.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to propose an improvement in clean cork supply to avoid the aforementioned drawbacks and to make it shorter and less costly, in all its aspects, stopping an installation following a plug feeding incident.
  • an installation as mentioned in the preamble is essentially characterized, being arranged in accordance with the invention, in that it further comprises, upstream of the capper, a dynamic storage device caps suitable for driving the plugs with a step predetermined and without discontinuity, the number of caps present simultaneously in said storage device being at least equal to the number of containers present in a predetermined portion of the installation, means of control of the supply of plugs being provided upstream of the dynamic storage device and being arranged for check a container feeding device located upstream, preferably at the entrance, of the above portion predetermined installation, thanks to which everything container engaged in the predetermined portion of the installation corresponds a plug present in the device dynamic storage of plugs feeding the capper and, in the event of a plug supply incident upstream of the dynamic storage device, we control the power supply in containers of said predetermined portion of the installation while keeping the terminal part in operation of the installation at least until the incident be acquitted.
  • we control the feeding containers by interrupting the feeding of the containers upstream until the incident is acknowledged; alternately, instead of interrupting this supply, we regulate feeding corks by sliding or controlled offset from containers in particular when the offset relates to a small number (one or two for example) of plugs.
  • the predetermined portion of the installation includes at least the filler and the storage device capacity of caps is at least equal to the number of containers simultaneously present between the filler inlet and the entrance to the capper.
  • the invention applies to an online installation arranged for packaging of a product in containers of thermoplastic material (for example in PET) and comprising in particular, in upstream of the filler, a feed unit of preforms, a preform heating oven and a blower to produce containers from heated preforms; in this case, the above portion predetermined installation includes at least the furnace preform heating and the capacity of the device storing plugs is at least equal to the number of preforms simultaneously present in the oven.
  • said predetermined portion of the installation further includes at least the snowblower and that the capacity of the device storage of the plugs is at least equal to the number of containers (preforms, blanks or finished containers) present between the inlet of the oven and the outlet of the snowblower.
  • said predetermined portion of the installation further includes the filler and capper and that the capacity of the cork storage device is at least equal to the number of containers (preforms, blanks or empty or filled completed containers) present between the inlet of the oven and the inlet of the capper.
  • the means supply control plugs are arranged for regulate the supply of plugs in the event of an incident in feeding of containers (preforms, blanks, or containers completed or filled), for example either by blocking feeding corks, either by causing slippage caps relative to the containers.
  • the dynamic storage device of plugs can in principle be arranged anyway appropriate, however it is particularly desirable that it extends approximately vertically so that occupy a minimum surface in vertical projection and not not lead to a thoughtless increase in dimensions of the installation.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown, very schematically, the arrangement of principle of an installation designed in accordance with the invention for the packaging of a product, in particular a liquid or flowing product, in containers such as bottles, flasks, cans, etc.- with a neck and closed by a cap.
  • This installation includes for this purpose a filling machine 1 suitable for filling containers empty receipts (arrow 2) and to which is attached a capper 3 supplied with plugs (arrow 4) for closing of the filled containers which are then evacuated (arrow 5).
  • a device 6 for dynamic storage of stoppers which is suitable for driving towards the corker the corks one after the other with a predetermined step and without discontinuity.
  • the number of plugs present simultaneously in the storage device 6 is at least equal to the number containers present in a predetermined portion of installation: this predetermined portion may include at least any functional unit 7 of the installation located on the container supply line upstream of filler 1, and can also include the filler 1 herself; the predetermined portion 7 is at the very least constituted by the means for introducing the containers into filler 1, but a concrete example will be given more far with reference to figure 2.
  • control means 8 Upstream, and preferably at the entrance of the device storage 6 are provided control means 8 arranged to control the supply of corks and detect any anomaly in the supply of corks (absence of a plug, tangled plugs, plugs in reverse position, ).
  • the control means 8 are connected to a unit management 9 which in particular controls a device 10 for control and detection of container feeding of the predetermined portion 7 of the installation (control of operation of the transporter for example): in case incident of cork supply detected by the means 8, the unit 9 controls (for example blocks) the supply of containers until acknowledgment of the feeding incident, by controlling the device 10 appropriately.
  • filler 1 continues concomitantly to operate so as to exhaust all receptacles located, when the chain is blocked at 10, in the predetermined portion 7 of the installation. All these filled containers can be capped with the stock of plugs which is present in the device dynamic storage 6.
  • the aforementioned predetermined portion 7 of the installation includes the filling machine 1: the capacity of the storage device 6 is then at least equal to the number containers present simultaneously between the entry of the filler and the entrance to the capper. Detection in 8 of a plug supply anomaly causes in 10 stopping the feeding of containers at the entrance to the filler.
  • thermoplastic material for example in PET
  • This installation then notably includes, as illustrated in fig. 2, a preform supply unit 11, an oven 12 preform heater and a blower 13 for produce, by blowing or stretch-blowing preforms hot in molds, finished containers that are then routed to filler 1, where associated a capper 3 supplied with corks through a device 6 for dynamic storage of stoppers in accordance in the diagram of fig. 1.
  • the aforementioned predetermined portion of the installation can comprise at least the preform heating furnace 12: the capacity in plugs of the storage device 6 is then at least equal the number of containers (here heated preforms) present simultaneously in the oven.
  • the detection in 8 of a supply anomaly in plugs causes the preform supply to stop in 10 at the entrance to oven 12. However, all of the the installation located downstream of the shutdown device 10 continues to operate until discharged from the oven 12 from all heated preforms.
  • the predetermined portion of the installation simultaneously includes the oven 12 and the blower 13 as shown schematically in 7b in FIG. 2, and that the capacity of the storage device 6 is at least equal to the number containers (preforms, blanks or finished containers) present simultaneously between the inlet of the furnace 12 and the outlet of the blower 13.
  • the containers are closed immediately after filling; if the filling has not followed the filling quickly, the containers and their contents must be discarded.
  • the installation it is desirable to arrange the installation so that the aforementioned predetermined portion simultaneously includes the oven 12, the blower 13, the filler 1 and the capper 3 as shown schematically in 7 c in FIG. 2 and that the capacity of the storage device 6 is at least equal to the number of containers (preforms, blanks and finished containers empty or filled) located between the inlet of the oven 12 and the inlet of the capper 3.
  • the cork storage device that comes to be described can also be arranged to ensure the management of the supply of corks in the event of an incident in feeding containers: for this purpose, the aforementioned device 10, located upstream of the portion predetermined 7 of the installation, or arranged to detect the containers being fed and transmit the information to the management unit 9 so that it controls so suitable the device 8 further arranged, for its part, to manage the supply of plugs at the device inlet storage 6: either unit 9 controls device 8 to stop the arrival of plugs in the storage 6 thanks to the use of means including one example will be given later under the mode of preferred embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4, i.e. unit 9 controls a slowing down of the supply of so as to cause the caps to slip or shift compared to the containers (especially when the offset relates to a low number) or any other equivalent action not causing the actual shutdown of the diet in caps.
  • the aforementioned device 10 located upstream of the portion predetermined 7 of the installation, or arranged to detect the containers being fed and transmit the information to the management unit 9 so that it
  • the dynamic cork storage system can be of any type suitable to meet the requirements mentioned above.
  • the number of plugs which it is required to contain dynamically can be very high: in the last aforementioned case, the number of plugs to be held in reserve in correspondence with the number of containers present in the 7 c portion of the installation can be very large and reach for example several hundred. Under these conditions, a device for dynamic storage of plugs having a horizontal extension alone would be very bulky and therefore costly in terms of floor space occupied.
  • the dynamic storage device 6 comprises means for supplying stoppers constituted in particular by a slide 14 for supplying plugs in line to each other following others from a bulk diet and a disentangling, positioning unit (opening towards up or preferably opening down) and putting in line (not shown).
  • gripping means 15 grab the plugs one by one, keeping them apart each other with a predetermined step, to bring them to the next device.
  • the means of gripping 15 include a rotating wheel 16 of axis vertical 17 which is peripherally provided with a multiplicity of notches 18.
  • a circular arc guide 19, located at sight of the wheel 16, keeps the plugs in the respective notches 18, the guide in an arc having a about half a turn.

  • the fixed helical track 22 closely surrounds the barrel 21 by winding over the entire height thereof and its outer edge is provided with a retaining rim 25 and guiding the plugs.
  • the conjunction of the vertical recesses 24 of the barrel 21 and helical track 22 defines a multiplicity of fugitive dwellings 26 with dual mobility rotating and sliding vertically, which are suitable for each house a cap and train the caps of a end to end of the helical runway 22.
  • the number of these housings 26 is a function of the diameter of the barrel 21, of the number of vertical recesses 24 on its external face, no winding of the helical track 22 and the device height. It will be noted in particular that, for a size given in vertical projection and all things equal, the capacity of the device can be modulated by varying its height and / or the pitch of the helical track.
  • the spacing pitch of the notches 18 of the wheel 16 and the spacing pitch of the vertical recesses 24 of barrel 21 are equal, and wheel 16 and barrel 21 rotate in synchronism so that all the notches 18 of the wheel 16 loaded with respective caps discharge successively in all the housings 26 defined by the recesses 24 of the barrel 21.

  • the axes 17, 23 and 30 are driven in synchronism, not only with each other, but also with others installation organs. Therefore, there is no need to provide a specific motorization for the dynamic storage 6 and the drive is provided by a system of belts, chains or the like, designated at 32 in FIG. 3, or alternatively one implements several motor means slaved to each other, in particular when you want to cause a slip between the plug and container feeds as mentioned higher in the event of a container feeding incident.
  • the arrangement of the device 20 offers the advantage to identify the locations occupied by traffic jams successive, and therefore to ensure that, all the dwellings 26 being occupied, the device effectively contains the number of plugs needed to feed everyone the containers present at a given moment in the portion determined 7 of the installation. In addition it is possible, if necessary, carry out a visual check to ensure that all the housings 26 are effectively occupied.
  • this device and its control associated, it is possible to anticipate the effects of a anomaly in the supply of plugs, and to make so that a shutdown of the installation required to process this anomaly does not otherwise cause other effects unfavorable increasing the cost of the incident.
  • the management unit 9 is capable of causing stopping the supply of plugs on wheel 16: at this indeed, there is either a door (such as a locking finger) at the upstream end of the guide 19, or, as shown in the FIG. 4, a section 33 of the guide that can deviate radially of the periphery of the wheel under the action of an organ drive 34 controlled by a motor 35 placed under the dependent on the management unit 9, thanks to which the plugs are ejected by the guide section 33 in position opened.
