Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a crimping device for use in a machine for closing containers of the type of bottles and the like.
  • crimping machines generally comprise a line for feeding the bottles to a crimping device comprising a turret rotatable about a vertical axis, peripherally bearing a plurality of support means for the bottles to be closed by means of a relative ring nut.
  • a crimping device comprising a turret rotatable about a vertical axis, peripherally bearing a plurality of support means for the bottles to be closed by means of a relative ring nut.
  • the bottles are provided with a respective closure cap.
  • the crimping turret respectively has a corresponding plurality of crimping heads, each carrying a crimping blade that is tilting between a disengagement position and a working position approached to the capsule.
  • Handling means which allow to drive in rotation the same bottles according to their own axis, are associated with the support means of the bottles.
  • the axial rotation of the bottles ensures that the action of the crimping blade is exerted on the whole circumference of the capsule, to create the ring nut; in fact, the blade bends the rim of the cap against the lower surface of an annular projection of the neck of the bottles.
  • a crimping device of this type is illustrated for example in US 6,367,301 and in EP 2144841 .
  • US 6,367,301 discloses a crimping device according to the preamble of claim 1 and a corresponding method.
  • a problem of the devices here considered is the control of preload pressure during the crimping step.
  • a suitable pressure is exerted, for example by pushing up the bottles against a fixed abutment or vice versa by pushing down on the relative capsule; in the second case, the support surface of the bottles has a fixed height.
  • the support surface of the bottles has a fixed height.
  • EP 2144841 discloses for example a control system of the crimping pressure that provides the use of a force transducer associated with a pressure member disposed in axis to each of the bottles carried in rotation by the crimping turret.
  • DE 4442035 discloses a device for the closure of bottles by crimping in which the bottles are held between a lower lift device and a centering head of the cap, coaxial therewith, movable in axial direction.
  • the centering head and/or the lift device are submitted to a force that axially compresses the cap and the bottle against each other.
  • the force with which the cap and the bottle are mutually axially compressed during the crimping is detected by a force sensor disposed above the centering head.
  • the crimping pressure measured in the known devices is subject to errors that cannot be foreseen, for example due to friction phenomena, jams, anomalous thrusts and the like.
  • the crimping blade may determine, in use, a thrust in vertical direction of not expected amount, which alters the value of the measured crimping force.
  • the feature of providing separate sensors for each bottle involves the need to individually calibrate these instruments, with an evident functional and constructive complication.
  • the task of the present invention is that of solving the aforementioned problems, devising a device that allows to carry out in an optimal way the crimping of the containers in a machine for closing containers of the type of bottles and the like.
  • Another scope of the invention is to provide a crimping device provided with great versatility, in particular being able to be used to crimp any kind of container fed in line.
