Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a method for monitoring, control and optimization of filling systems for products of all kinds, in which solid or liquid products are filled in containers such as cans, bottles or the like.
  • the present invention is directed to applications in bottling plants for beverages.
  • Such bottling plants for drinks are used in fully automatic operation, for example, starting from the supply of bottles, a station for bottle cleaning, a station for inspection of the unfilled bottles, to the actual container filling machine, a device for closing the bottles and finally to means for labeling and possibly for packaging in corresponding transport containers and for palletizing these transport containers.
  • the invention begins, the task of which is essentially to carry out a system or machine monitoring.
  • a system or machine monitoring for example, the use of located within the system, with the fault detection and / or the power control instructed persons can be completely saved, or at least significantly reduced become.
  • additional, person safety or process safety functions can be realized.
  • the system monitoring and the associated with this error detection and / or the power control of the system automatically but at least substantially automatically. This object is achieved by a method according to claim 1.
  • containers such as bottles or cans
  • these containers can also be located in different orientations in different places, ie upright or even overturned.
  • People can also be located in a wide variety of places and take on a wide variety of postures
  • Known image processing systems for example, use a method of probing with subsequent contour comparison in object recognition, for example, followed by feature recognition.
  • the EP 190 090 A1 discloses a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and shows the use of optical image processing in the transport area of a container handling machine. Cameras there determine the distance between individual containers, and an evaluation software evaluates the occupation density on the transport path via the distances between the containers and accordingly control motors of a conveyor in the transport path.
  • the opto-electronic system is much more versatile.
  • the number of moving objects such as the bottles to be filled or the already filled bottles can be queried as well, such as the spatial position of bottles, such as a state in which a bottle has fallen over and so the danger There is a malfunction of other plant components.
  • It is known to those skilled in the art Anlagenably, to make the power control of an entire system for filling containers or the prepared rugregalung individual machines of the entire system based on the occupancy of the transporters and / or buffer lines between the individual machines.
  • the occupancy of the transport or buffer sections is queried for example by one or more cameras, the respective occupancy grade be determined by an electronic image processing of the captured images.
  • the procedure is, for example, as follows within the image processing: First, the recorded image is analyzed as to the number of bottles or cans on the buffer line at the time of recording, whereby preferably each individual bottle is represented as an object of the "bottle" type. , ie as such is recognized. Subsequently, the determined number of bottles is compared with a computer-stored maximum possible number of bottles, from which the current occupancy rate can be determined.
  • the throughput capacity of a single machine can subsequently be advantageously controlled, whereby complicated cabling, inter alia, is avoided.
  • thermal imaging cameras which makes it possible, in addition to pure visual perception, also e.g. To measure temperatures.
  • This procedure is particularly suitable for monitoring individual processes within a complete system. For example, e.g. provided to check a pasteurizer frequently provided in food filling plants to the effect that the temperature of the container entering this pasteuriser and / or the temperature of the container discharging from the pasteurizer are within predetermined limits.
  • the process reliability can be further increased without, for example, the cabling effort is increased.
  • a band protection monitoring of the entire filling plant can also take place.
  • the monitoring of the temperature of certain machines and / or storage tanks is possible.
  • the systems can also be used, for example, to be able to recognize incorrectly positioned containers, such as overturned containers. It is also possible to monitor findings of the inflow behavior in the corresponding systems, for example from intermediate buffers using the procedure.
  • systems can also be used to realize a protective function for the persons or employees working within the plant.
  • a protective function for the persons or employees working within the plant.
  • a possible result of such an analysis could be, for example, whether an individual has an emergency situation.
  • Indicators of an emergency situation may be, for example, "lying on the floor” in conjunction with prolonged inability of the person concerned.
  • the supply of consumables located directly on the processing machines can also be monitored in order to initiate appropriate measures if the stock falls below a certain minimum level.
  • a merely symbolically indicated, generally designated 1 plant should serve, for example, for filling beverage bottles.
  • the bottles are fed from a first machine 2 via 3 designated transport segments of another machine 4.
  • the transport segments 3 are driven by drive motors M.
  • the data of a data processing system 6 are supplied, such that a control of the system is possible and in particular an error detection and error correction can be done automatically.
  • the scaling or the degree of filling of the transport path is shown symbolically by a double arrow.
  • the respective position of a person located within the system is monitored in the illustrated embodiment. For example, this person may not enter the security area S.
  • the security area is characterized, for example, by color markings affixed to the hall floor. If the person now exceeds these color markings, this is recognized by the image processing, whereupon, for example, a warning signal is triggered, or else the system is completely stopped.
  • optical detection systems used can be used for monitoring the bottle flow at least sections of a filling system and / or for monitoring the degree of occupancy of buffer tables and / or for the identification of individual bottles in the bottle stream, without the invention being limited to these special applications.
  • the level reached within the container can be monitored and changed by influencing the filling valves.
