Definitions

the subject of the present invention is a device for ponderal filling and a ponderal filler using this device.
ponderal fillers enable accurate bottling even of dense products or products which tend to form foam during bottling (for example milk or its derivatives).
Such fillers inline or rotary, have a series of filling stations at which the bottles are filled "by weight".
the bottle is arranged under the relative filling valve which delivers the product.
the weight is measured by a load cell which, by means of a feedback control, brings about the closure of the valve on reaching the desired weight (i.e. when filling is completed).
the load cell is surmounted by a pan on which the bottom of the bottle rests.
a further disadvantage of such solutions is connected with the presence of a plurality of tank for collecting the product of dripping. These tanks are movable and must be positioned manually under the corresponding filling stations. Furthermore, for operations of changing format, it is necessary to change the tanks.
the bottle is supported by the neck by means of a clamp pivoting on a load cell located laterally to the body of the bottle.
the technical task at the base of the present invention is to propose a ponderal filling device and a ponderal filler, which overcome the disadvantages of the known art mentioned above.
Another object of the present invention is to make available a ponderal filling device and a ponderal filler in which the collection of product residue (due to dripping) is practical and quick.
the declared technical task and the specified objects are substantially achieved by a device for ponderal filling and a ponderal filler, comprising the technical characteristics set forth in one or more of the attached claims.
the number 1 indicates a ponderal device for filling a container 2 (or bottle) with a fluid product.
this device 1 has application in the sector of the bottling of fluids used for personal hygiene (detergents or liquid soaps) or food fluids (milk, drinks, oils etc.).
this device 1 comprises a filling valve 3 for dispensing the product into the container 2 located in a filling station 4.
the product is dispensed according to a delivery direction 5.
the device 1 comprises weighing means 6 located outside the delivery direction 5, i.e. having an extension such as not to interfere with the delivery direction 5.
the weighing means 6 are operatively active on the container 2 placed in the filling station 4, in order to weigh it.
the weighing means 6 comprise an electronic load cell 7 of known type.
the load cell 7 comprises a bar 9 of deformable elastic material, inside which is formed a cavity 10 defining a weight sensor of constant moment.
One or more extensometers are applied to this sensor to convert the elongation or compression of bar 9 to an electrical signal.
this signal is amplified by means of an instrumentation amplifier and subsequently processed.
the electronic load cell 7 is compensated, for example to correct nonlinearity or temperature variations.
the weighing means 6 comprise a hydraulic load cell 7.
the weighing means 6 include a loadbearing support 11 for a base 12 of the container 2. Originally, said support 11 has a hole or aperture 13 passing through it in such a way as not to intercept the delivery direction 5.
the loadbearing support 11 consists of a hollow body 14 whose cavity is formed by the through hole 13.
This hollow body 14 has a support surface 14a with a substantially rectangular outline, as illustrated in figure 1 .
the hollow body 14 has a support surface 14a with a substantially elliptical outline.
the support surface 14a is in the form of a profile capable of supporting the container 2. In this way, the support surface 14a has an extension in terms of area which is less than the extension delimited by it, corresponding to the hole or aperture 13.
the support 11 consists of a ring having a diameter less than the diameter of the base 12 of the container 2.
the container 2 is a bottle which, when placed in filling station 4, has a longitudinal axis 15 parallel or coinciding with the delivery direction 5 in such a way that a mouth 16 of the bottle 2 receives the dispensed product.
the device 1 has restraining means 17 operatively active on the bottle 2 to lock it in the filling station 4.
restraining means 17 comprise at least one first clamp 18 having two jaws 18a and 18b to laterally grip the bottle 2.
the restraining means 17 also comprise a second clamp 19 having two jaws 19a, 19b to grip the bottle 2 in proximity to its neck 20.
the loadbearing support 11 is connected to the load cell 7 by means of a fork 21 having an inclined upper surface 21a.
the fork 21 is fitted to a top 7a of the load cell 7 in such a way that its upper surface 21a is facing towards the filling valve 3.
the first and the second clamps 18, 19 are rotatably pivoted on said rod 22 at two different heights.
the second clamp 19 is pivoted at a height corresponding to the neck 20 of the bottle 2.
the number 23 indicates a ponderal filler 23 in a rotating carousel 24 comprising a plurality of devices 1 operatively active on an equal number of containers 2 located in corresponding filling stations 4.
the filler 23 is provided with a single tank 25 for collecting the product of dripping, i.e. product dispensed but not bottled.
This tank 25 extends below the filling stations 4 and has the shape of an annular channel 26.
the annular channel 26 is fixed.
Each empty bottle 2 is gripped by the restraining means 17 which take it to the respective filling station 4.
the first clamp 18 passes from an open condition in which the jaws 18a and 18b separate from each other to accept the body of the bottle 2, to a closed condition in which the jaws 18a and 18b move together to laterally grip bottle 2.
the second clamp 19 passes from an open condition in which the jaws 19a and 19b separate from each other to accept the neck 20 of the bottle 2, to a closed condition in which the jaws 19a and 19b move together to grip said neck 20.
the base 12 of the bottle 2 rests on the support surface 14a of the hollow body 14 and the clamps 18 and 19 maintain it firmly in that position.
the longitudinal axis 15 of bottle 2 coincides with the delivery direction 5, as shown in figure 2 .
This delivery direction 5 is substantially vertical with respect to the ground or the floor on which the filler 23 is situated.
the filling valve 3 located above the mouth 16 of the bottle 2, dispenses the product into the bottle 2.
the weight of the bottle 2 is measured by the load cell 7 both at the beginning (i.e. with bottle 2 empty), and during the filling stage.
the bottle 2, bearing on the hollow body 14, causes an elongation of the elastic bar 9.
the sensor located inside the load cell 7 converts this elongation into an electrical signal which, suitably amplified and processed, is used to control the delivery of the product.
the filling valve 3 is closed.
the collection of product residue is quick and easy: in fact it is not necessary to move the tank by displacing it along the filler, nor to replace it in the event of a change of format of the bottles.
