Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filling device for containers, in particular for beverage containers, the type explained in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a filling device is known from EP 1 025 424 known.
  • the known filling device includes one of the usual filling carousels, which revolve about a substantially vertical axis and are provided at its outer periphery with radially projecting holders for the containers.
  • the holders are usually designed like pliers, wherein the two jaws are spring-loaded, or magnetically pulled to each other and have a recess adapted to the container, with which the holder engages around the container for filling.
  • Normally bottles are filled, which are provided below the filling opening, at its neck, with a protruding flange which provides a support on the top of the holder.
  • a filling valve For filling a filling valve is provided, which stands with its outlet in the filling position in coaxial alignment with the filling opening of the container. By operating the filling valve, a predetermined amount of the product is filled in the container. To check the filling condition, the container is weighed.
  • a weighing device is provided which contains an elastically deformable element in the form of a rigidly attached to the frame elastic rod whose deformation is determined by the weight of the container and evaluated as a measure of the weight. The elastic element is acted upon by the holder, wherein the elastic element and the holder in the radial direction with respect to the axis of rotation of the Be colllerkarussells adjacent to each other.
  • the holder serves as a lever arm for acting on the elastically deformable rod.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a filling device with a robust, reliable weighing device.
  • the local arrangement of the weighing device the influence of vibrations on the weighing device is eliminated or can not build up vibrations for lack of leverage.
  • a particularly preferred arrangement of the weighing device is above, substantially vertically above the holder, whereby a connection between the container and the weighing device substantially protected against vibrations in the direction of gravity is possible.
  • the holder is connected directly to the weighing device via at least one substantially vertically extending arm.
  • a weighing device arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the filling axis, wherein the weighing device is provided on at least two opposite sides of the filling axis, but the filling axis preferably extends through an opening in the weighing device. This can be achieved in a structurally simple manner in that the weighing device extends around the outlet of the filling valve.
  • Such an embodiment of the weighing device is structurally particularly simple and reliable to implement by an elastic element, which is determined by the weight of the container deformation.
  • an elastically deformable element can be easily formed annularly closed around the filling axis and / or the filling valve around.
  • Fig. 1 is a filling device 1 as part of a bottling plant for bottling drinks visible
  • the z. B. is a conventional Be Heilllerkarussell, and a frame 2 which is driven to rotate about a substantially vertical axis of rotation 2 'in the direction of rotation D.
  • the frame 2 ' only part of a about the rotation axis 2' extending, outer, tire-shaped support member 2a can be seen.
  • a carrier 3 On the support member 2a, a carrier 3 is fixed, which extends in the radial direction with respect to the axis of rotation 2 'on the support member 2a addition.
  • This carrier 3 is designed as a valve receptacle for a filling valve 4.
  • the filling valve 4 is of conventional type and connected via a supply line 5 and the usual distributor 6 with a source of product to be filled, in particular a drink.
  • the filling valve 4 is arranged so that its outlet is arranged in the form of a filling nozzle 6 with a substantially vertical center line 6 'and a substantially horizontally extending outlet opening 6a.
  • a holder 7 for container to be filled 8 bottles are shown with a neck provided on the handling flange 8a and a container centerline 8 ', arranged.
  • the holder 7 contains the conventional jaws 7a and 7b, which have a receiving opening adapted to the container and an upper bearing surface for the handling flange 8a, and which are loaded in their closed position by a spring (not shown).
  • the spring or magnetic force is designed such that the jaws 7a, 7b move away from each other when a container 8 presses radially inward against the jaws, and move back to the closed position to each other once the container 8 arrived in the recess of the jaws is.
  • the jaws move under the handling flange 8a and hold the container 8 suspended for filling in a substantially axial orientation of the container axis 8 'to the filling axis 6'.
  • the jaws 7a, 7b of the holder 7 are not attached directly to the frame 2 but to a weighing device 9.
  • a weighing device any construction capable of detecting a weight freely suspended therefrom can be used.
  • the weighing unit preferably contains an elastically deformable element whose deformation can be detected by measuring devices, such as strain gauges or the like. Such elastic elements are known in weighing devices and need not be explained again.
  • the weighing device 9 is arranged below the filling valve 4 on at least two opposite sides of the filling axis 6 'such that the filling of the container 8 can take place through the weighing device 9.
  • the weighing device 9 extends in a circular manner around the filling axis 6 ', it being possible to guide the filling nozzle 6 through an opening 9a in the weighing device 9.
  • the outer shape of the weighing device 9 can be asymmetrical with respect to the filling axis and, for example, at right angles, as can be seen from FIGS FIGS. 1 and 2 results.
  • the holder 7 is suspended on the weighing device via at least one, preferably two, substantially vertically extending arms 10a, 10b.
  • the one or more arms 10a, 10b engage symmetrically with respect to filling axis 6 'and at the same distance to the filling axis 6' on the weighing device 9 ', wherein the distance to the filling axis 6 'is kept as small as the neck diameter of the container 8 allows to minimize or avoid a lever effect.
  • the arms 10a, 10b are located on the forward or trailing side in the direction of rotation D of the weighing device 9.
  • the attachment points of the arms 10, 10b on the bracket 7 on the one hand and the weighing device 9 on the other hand have the same distances from each other in the direction of rotation D, and are arranged symmetrically with respect to the filling axis 6 ', so that the arms 10a, 10b can extend optimally vertically.
  • the weighing device 9 and the holder 7 are formed so that both can be arranged close to each other, ie as closely as possible, to each other, to avoid long levers.
  • the holder 7 and the weighing device 9 at a distance from each other, which is just sufficient, the container 8 above the handling flange 8a between the holder and the outlet opening 6a, wherein the outlet opening 6a terminates preferably with the lower boundary of the weighing device 9.
  • the arms 10a, 10b thus run exactly vertically.
  • the weighing device may optionally also be arranged above the filling valve or at another point along the filling axis 6 '.
  • the arms for the suspension of the holder can (obliquely) run at a correspondingly rigid design also (slightly).
  • the weighing device preferably contains an elastically deformable material whose deformation is, for example, tapped over the measuring strip in a known manner and transmitted to a control and / or display device for evaluation. Other constructive aspects of a weighing device that are on the market in large numbers are also possible.
