Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for bottling beverages, in particular spirits, in bottles and a filling machine for beverages, in particular spirits according to the preamble of claim 1 or 6, and as known from EP 2 386 518 A1 .
  • the vacuum can be used to keep the filling valves drip-free after the bottles have been removed.
  • the filling level can be corrected by sucking the beverage out through the return gas tube that is still immersed.
  • the filling valves are preferably connected to a partially filled and ring-shaped product container.
  • a partially filled and ring-shaped product container Like for example from the EP 2 386 518 A1 is known, further annular channels may be present for the return gas and the suction.
  • the disadvantage of such vacuum correction fillers and the corresponding filling methods is that, as a rule, only a single filling speed is possible for bottling beverages.
  • the time required for the filling process has to be minimized and, on the other hand, the flow rate of the beverage has to be limited in order to enable the bottles to be filled in a controlled manner at the end of the filling process.
  • the filling process may have to be able to be carried out with different types of beverages.
  • the stated object is achieved with a method for bottling beverages, in particular spirits, according to claim 1.
  • the drink is held in a ring-shaped product channel under overpressure and, when the filling valves connected to it are opened, it runs into the bottles with overfilling.
  • return gas flows through return gas valves assigned to the filling valves into an annular return gas channel.
  • overfilled beverages are sucked off into an annular vacuum channel by opening associated vacuum valves.
  • the beverage can be placed under one for bottling provide suitable excess pressure in the product channel that accelerates the filling process as a whole. Consequently, the flow rate of the beverage to be filled can be significantly increased compared to a product container kept at ambient pressure.
  • the overpressure refers to the interior of the bottle, which is preferably kept at ambient pressure when the beverage is filled.
  • the overpressure can be limited, for example by reducing the pressure, in such a way that the beverage is only filled in with level control. After the filling valve has been closed, overfilled beverages can be sucked off independently of the overpressure in the product channel.
  • the method according to the invention is therefore filling level-controlled overpressure filling with integrated vacuum correction of the filling level.
  • the return gas first flows through a first return gas valve and then, with a return gas flow that is throttled in comparison thereto and bypassing the first return gas valve, through a second return gas valve.
  • the filling speed can be increased in the initial and middle phase of the filling process and simultaneously reduced in a final phase of the filling process in such a way that the actual filling process is ended by the beverage rising up in the return gas pipe with a targeted overfilling of the bottles, i.e. level-controlled.
  • the first return gas valve is closed when the second return gas valve opens. This enables a reproducible and comparatively simple control of the return gas flow towards the end of the filling process.
  • the first and second return gas valve can, for example, be switched centrally at the same time or with a suitable time offset in relation to one another.
  • the return gas valves and the vacuum valves are preferably mechanically switched between the open and closed positions.
  • the return gas valves and the vacuum valves are then designed as so-called switching valves, which makes it possible to control the filling process in a comparatively simple manner.
  • An overpressure of 0.01 to 0.2 bar and in particular of 0.02 to 0.05 bar is preferably generated in the product channel.
  • this allows the flow rate of the drink to be increased significantly and thus the filling time to be reduced.
  • the filling process can then still be reliably carried out by the beverage rising up in the return gas pipe against itself controlled by the overpressure building up in the closed return gas pipe and terminated when the beverage in the bottle is suitably overfilled.
  • Comparatively high overpressures are primarily suitable for products with a comparatively high viscosity and vice versa.
  • the beverage preferably fills the product channel completely. With regular filling, no gas space forms above the beverage in the product channel. As a result, the beverage can be held at the specified overpressure precisely and easily.
  • the beverage When overfilled, the beverage preferably rises in return gas pipes until the supply of beverage into the bottles comes to a standstill.
  • the bottles are then lowered by a predetermined correction stroke from the filling valve into a correction position, and overfilled beverage is sucked out through the return gas pipes up to a fill level predetermined by the correction stroke.
  • the fill level of the beverage in the bottle can be adjusted reliably and precisely to a target value. Furthermore, the filling valves can be kept drip-free. The process is therefore particularly suitable for high-quality beverages such as spirits or wine. In addition, no actively operated probe is required for setting the filling level, the operation of which would be problematic in an atmosphere with a significant partial pressure of alcohol.
  • a filling machine for beverages in particular spirits, according to claim 6.
  • This comprises a filler carousel with a product channel, return gas channel and vacuum channel each configured in the form of a ring on its rotor, with the product channel for holding the beverage under overpressure (in relation to the volume to be filled Bottles) is formed and connected to a variety of filling valves for the bottles.
  • Return gas valves are assigned to the filling valves, which can be opened individually under mechanical control for return gas to flow out of the cylinders into the return gas channel.
  • there are vacuum valves assigned to the filling valves and connected to the vacuum channel which can be opened individually and under machine control for sucking out overfilled beverages from the bottles. This has the advantages described with regard to claim 1.
  • a vacuum valve and a first and a second return gas valve are connected to the return gas pipes assigned to the filling valves.
  • the return gas tubes can be used either for the outflow of return gas or for the suction of beverage from the bottles that have been lowered by a correction stroke.
  • the second return gas valve is located in a bypass line around the first return gas valve, and the connection from the return gas pipe to the return gas channel through the second return gas valve is throttled compared to the connection through the first return gas valve.
  • This enables a comparatively simple reduction or increase in the return gas flow through the return gas pipe by alternately opening and closing the first and second return gas valve.
  • the second return gas valve in the bypass line can be arranged comparatively flexibly at a suitable point in the area of a peripheral filling station.
  • the filling machine is designed in such a way that the first return gas valve can be closed when the second return gas valve is opened.
  • the second return gas valve is preferably arranged above the vacuum valve and/or the first return gas valve.
  • the vacuum valve and the first return gas valve can then be connected directly to the vacuum channel and the return gas channel.
  • the return gas pipe can be arranged on the filling valve in a proven manner. Second return gas valves arranged above enable compact filling stations, which can be arranged on a filler carousel to save space.
  • Each filling valve is preferably assigned a valve block comprising a connecting line from the outlet of the first return gas valve to the return gas channel and the bypass line between the connecting line and the inlet of the first return gas valve and/or the vacuum valve, the second return gas valve being arranged on/in the valve block.
  • the return gas valves and the vacuum valves are preferably arranged on an upper ring carrier carrying the return gas channel and the vacuum channel, and the filling valves are arranged on a lower ring carrier carrying the product channel.
  • This enables a compact arrangement of the individual valves on the rotor of the filling machine and thus minimizes the need for connecting lines, connections or the like.
  • the individual valves can, for example, be flanged directly and/or by means of valve blocks to the assigned ring channels.
  • the filling valves can preferably be opened by pressing the bottles upwards against a mechanical spring preload.
  • Filling valves of this type have proven themselves for level-controlled bottling of beverages and essentially work purely fluid-mechanically. No actively operated components are therefore required on the filling valve to control the filling process. This is particularly advantageous for alcoholic beverages due to the comparatively volatile alcohol.
  • the return gas valves and the vacuum valves are preferably electronically controllable switching valves. This enables a flexible temporal adjustment of switching times and a comparatively inexpensive and simple design of the individual filling elements on the rotor.
  • the filling machine preferably includes a compressed air supply for the product channel to produce an overpressure there of 0.01 to 0.2 bar and in particular 0.02 to 0.05 bar, for example by means of pressure reduction from a central compressed air line or associated media supply.
  • the filling machine 1 for filling beverages 2 into bottles 3 comprises a (schematically indicated) filler carousel 4, on the rotor of which a plurality of filling stations 5 are fastened in a manner known in principle.
  • the filling stations 5 each comprise a filling valve 6, a return gas pipe 7, a vacuum valve 8 designed as a switching valve, a first return gas valve 9 designed as a switching valve and a second return gas valve 10 designed as a switching valve.
  • Each filling station 5 is also assigned a lifting device 11 (only partially shown) with a centering bell 6a for guiding the bottles 3 against the filling valve 6 .
  • the lifting device 11 enables the bottles 3 to be pressed upwards against the pretension of a spring 6b formed on the filling valve 6 in order to open the filling valve 6.
  • the lifting device 11 enables the bottles 3 to be lowered from the filling valve 6 in a targeted manner by a correction stroke 12 .
  • the bottle 3 is lowered by the correction stroke 12 to a correction position 14 with the filling valve 6 closed. There, overfilled beverage 2 is sucked out of the bottle 3 up to a target fill level predetermined by the correction position 14 .
  • annular product channel 15 for the product 2 is fastened to the filler carousel 4 by means of a lower ring carrier 16, as well as an annular return gas channel 17 and an annular vacuum channel 18 by means of an upper ring carrier 19.
  • the beverage 2 is held in the product channel 15 under an overpressure relative to the filling valves 6 and the interior of bottles 3 attached thereto.
  • the beverage 2 preferably fills the ring-shaped product channel 15 completely. Consequently, no gas space can form above the beverage 2 within the product channel 15 during the ongoing bottling operation. As a result, the excess pressure in the product channel 15 can be set and maintained precisely and easily and largely independently of external influences.
  • the vacuum valve 8 and the first and second return gas valve 9, 10 are, for example, integrated into a valve block 20 and/or arranged on it.
  • both a connecting line 21 from the vacuum valve 8 to the vacuum channel 18 and a connecting line 22 from the first return gas valve 9 to the return gas channel 17 are formed in the valve block 20 .
  • the second return gas valve 10 is connected on the one hand to the return gas pipe 7 and on the other hand to the return gas channel 17 via a bypass line 23 for bypassing the first return gas valve 9 .
  • the figure 2 shows the valve block 20 in a first switching state of the first return gas valve 9 and the second return gas valve 10 for comparatively rapid filling, in particular in an initial and middle phase of the respective filling process.
  • the first return gas valve 9 is open during rapid filling and the second return gas valve 10 is closed.
  • the vacuum valve 8 is closed during the filling process, ie when the return gas 24 is flowing out.
  • the figure 3 illustrates a second switching state of the return gas valves 9, 10 for comparatively slow filling, in particular in a final phase of the filling process. Accordingly, the first return gas valve 9 is then closed and the second return gas valve 10 is opened, so that the return gas 24 bypasses the first return gas valve 9 via the bypass line 23 . When the first return gas valve 9 is closed and the second return gas valve 10 is open, there is a slower return gas flow 24b for slower filling.
  • a bypass line 23 and/or the second return gas valve 10 (only in the figure 3 shown) cross-section narrowing panel 23a or the like can be integrated.
  • the outflow of the return gas 24 through the valve block 20, ie from the return gas pipe 7 into the annular return gas duct 17, can be throttled in a simple manner as a result.
  • the aperture 23a could also be exchangeable in order to implement different throttle levels. In principle, throttles that can be adjusted in other ways or suitably reduced line cross-sections would also be conceivable.
  • the increased flow resistance between the return gas pipe 7 and the return gas channel 17 in the second switching state reduces the flow rate of the beverage 2 to be filled into the bottles 3 in any case figure 3 the vacuum valve 8 is closed.
  • an overpressure of 0.01 to 0.2 bar and in particular of 0.02 to 0.05 bar in the product channel 15 there is preferably an overpressure of 0.01 to 0.2 bar and in particular of 0.02 to 0.05 bar in the product channel 15 .
  • the overpressure can be produced, for example, by reducing the pressure from a central compressed air supply (not shown), which is known in principle.
  • the flow rate of the beverage 2 can be reduced, particularly in a final phase of the filling process, so that the inflow of the beverage 2 comes to a standstill as it rises in the return gas pipe 7 in a level-controlled manner, i.e. purely fluid-mechanically.
  • the beverage 2 rising up in the return gas pipe 7 causes the beverage 2 to be overfilled with respect to a desired filling height of the beverage 2 in the bottles 3 when the bottles 3 are finally withdrawn from the filling valves 6 .
  • the bottles 3 can be lowered downwards from the filling valve 6 by the correction stroke 12, so that the return gas pipe 7 still protrudes into the respective bottle 3 and is immersed in the beverage 2 up to the desired filling level.
  • the vacuum valve 8 can finally be opened, so that overfilled drink 2 is drawn off from the bottles 3 through the return gas pipe 7 into the annular vacuum channel 18.
  • Such a vacuum correction of the fill level is known in principle and is therefore not explained in detail at this point.
  • the combination of the overpressure bottling of the beverage 2 held in the product channel 15 makes it possible to achieve both accelerated bottling overall and precise bottling in conjunction with the vacuum correction of the fill level, and thus economical utilization of high-quality beverages.
  • Beverages 2 are filled into bottles 3 under overpressure after they have opened the associated filling valve 6 by pressing on them.
  • initially only the first return gas valve 9 is opened for comparatively quick filling in order to fill a large part of the quantity of beverage to be filled at a comparatively high flow rate.
  • the first return gas valve 9 is closed and the second return gas valve 10 is opened for slower filling.
  • the inflow of the beverage 2 ends automatically when it rises up in the return gas pipe 7.
  • the vacuum valve 8 is opened and the overfilled drink 3 is sucked out up to the desired filling level. This completes the bottling of beverage 2.
  • the following fillings can in principle also be carried out with the filling machine 1 .
  • Equal pressure filling is possible, i.e. with a product channel 15 at ambient pressure, with the bottles 3 opening the filling valves 6, as described above, and return gas flowing through the opened first return gas valves 9 into the return gas channel 17 for rapid filling.
  • the filling valves 6 are closed in each case, so that the filling process is ended as a result.
  • Equal pressure filling is also possible as described above with additional vacuum correction of the filling level, with the vacuum valve 8 being opened to correct the filling level immediately after closing the first return gas valve 9 for rapid filling.
  • the filling valve 6 is first opened by the bottles 3 in the manner described and the vacuum valve 8 is only temporarily opened in a targeted manner. Subsequently, ie with the vacuum valve 8 closed, the first return gas valve 9 is opened for rapid filling, the bottle 3 is lowered by the correction stroke 12 and the vacuum valve 8 is opened again for vacuum correction of the fill level.
