Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bottle capping device according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for attaching a bottle cap to a bottle.
  • a bottle capping device which has a pressing device with elastic folding jaws and pressing jaws.
  • the pressing force for folding and pressing the bottle capsule onto the bottle is built up by pressure chambers connected to the folding jaw and pressing jaws.
  • the object of the present invention is to encapsulate a bottle in a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner.
  • the bottle encapsulating device should be simpler in construction and more cost-effective.
  • a bottle capping device having the features of claim 1. This makes it possible to improve the foldability of the bottle cap.
  • the bottle cap can be attached in a more aesthetic, lighter and more reliable manner.
  • the bottle capping device can be constructed more cost-effectively and simply and can process a wider range of materials and more environmentally friendly implementation for the bottle caps.
  • the bottle may be a beverage bottle.
  • the bottle may hold a liquid, in particular a beverage.
  • the bottle may have a bottle cap on a top of the bottle neck.
  • the bottle cap may cover the bottle cap.
  • the bottle cap and the bottle cap may be separate or integrated.
  • the bottle cap may be constructed at least mainly from paper and/or cellulose as the base material.
  • the bottle cap may be free from a metal and/or Plastic.
  • the bottle cap can be coated and/or printed regardless of the base material.
  • the pressing device can have at least one pressing element that exerts the pressing force on the bottle cap.
  • the pressing element can be designed as a pressing jaw.
  • the pressing element can be elastically deformable depending on an actuating pressure.
  • the pressing element can build up the pressing force depending on the actuating pressure.
  • the pressing element can be elastically deformable at least during the pressing process.
  • the pressing element can exert the pressing force through direct contact with the bottle cap.
  • the pressing force can run in a radial direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.
  • the pressing element can be made of metal and/or a plastic, in particular rubber, a rubber coating, preferably on metal and/or a rubber-containing material.
  • the pressing device can have at least two pressing elements that are preferably arranged diametrically opposite one another. At least one pressing element can be moved mechanically, pneumatically and/or hydraulically.
  • the bottle cap can be attached by pressing the bottle cap onto the bottle.
  • the folding device can have at least one folding element that folds the bottle cap by resting on the bottle cap.
  • the folding element can be designed as folding jaws.
  • the folding device can have at least two folding elements.
  • the folding elements can be arranged diametrically opposite one another.
  • the folding elements and the pressing elements can be arranged diametrically offset by 90° from one another.
  • the folding device can form the pressing device and/or vice versa. Folding the bottle cap can cause it to be pressed against the bottle neck. The pressing force can cause the bottle cap to fold.
  • the material treatment device can treat the bottle cap in a targeted manner.
  • the material treatment device can be set up to carry out a local material treatment, preferably excluding the bottle except for the area of the bottle cap, in order to change the material properties of the bottle cap.
  • the pressing device and/or folding device can be excluded from the material treatment.
  • the material treatment device has a moistening device for moistening the bottle cap with a treatment agent. Moistening the paper-based bottle cap can reduce or remove a resistance of the paper fibers that counteracts the folding of the bottle cap. As a result, a deformation state of the bottle cap achieved after folding can be maintained without force.
  • the material treatment device can specifically change at least two material properties of the bottle capsule.
  • the treatment agent is a liquid, an aerosol or a gas.
  • the treatment agent can be applied to the bottle cap in a volatile manner.
  • the treatment agent can be temporarily present on and/or in the bottle cap.
  • the treatment agent may have a different, in particular higher, temperature than the bottle capsule.
  • the treatment agent is water-based.
  • the aerosol can contain water droplets.
  • the gas can contain water vapor.
  • the moistening device has a spray device for applying the treatment agent to the bottle cap.
  • the spray device can have at least one spray element for spraying the bottle cap with the treatment agent.
  • the spray element is preferably designed to apply the treatment agent to the bottle cap from the side, from above and/or from below.
  • the material property is a moisture content of the bottle cap.
  • the material property can also be a temperature of the bottle cap.
  • the material treatment device can specifically change the moisture content and another material property, in particular a temperature of the bottle cap.
  • the material treatment device has a drying device for drying the bottle cap.
  • the drying device can have a fan.
  • the drying device comprises a heating device for introducing heat energy into the bottle cap.
  • the heating device can have a heating element.
  • the heating element can be electrically operated.
  • the folding process is carried out before the pressing process. This allows an aesthetic fold line to be produced on the bottle cap during folding.
  • the material treatment process is carried out before, during or after the placement process, the folding process and/or the pressing process.
  • the material treatment process can treat the bottle cap even before the placement process.
  • the material treatment process is carried out before the folding process and that there is a predetermined time interval between the completion of the material treatment process and the start of the folding process. This allows the treatment agent to take effect on the bottle cap for a certain amount of time.
  • Figure 1 shows a side view of a bottle capping device in a special embodiment of the invention.
  • the bottle capping device 10 is designed to attach a bottle cap 12 to a bottle neck 14 of a bottle 16.
  • the bottle neck 14 is directly opposite a bottle bottom 20 of the bottle 16 in the longitudinal direction 18.
  • the bottle cap 12 is a paper-based bottle cap 12 which is at least mainly made of paper and mainly has a paper as the base material.
  • the bottle capping device 10 comprises a folding device 22 for folding the bottle capsule 12 arranged on the bottle neck 14.
  • the folding device 22 comprises two diametrically opposite movable folding elements 24.
  • the folding elements 24 are designed as folding jaws and are designed to rest on the bottle capsule 12.
  • the bottle capping device 10 comprises a pressing device 26 with two diametrically opposed movable pressing elements 28, which apply a pressing force 30 to fasten the bottle cap 12 to the bottle 16.

  • the pressing elements 28 are accommodated in a housing 32, into which the bottle 16 is inserted for the pressing process to fasten the bottle cap 12 to the bottle 16.
  • the housing 32 can also be moved over the bottle 16.
  • the housing 32 with the pressing device 26 and folding device 22 can be designed as a folding head 34.
  • the bottle capping device 10 comprises a material treatment device 36 which specifically changes a material property of the bottle capsule 12 which influences the folding of the bottle capsule 12 in order to reduce or remove a resistance of the paper fibers of the bottle capsule 12 which counteracts the folding of the bottle capsule 12.
  • a material treatment device 36 which specifically changes a material property of the bottle capsule 12 which influences the folding of the bottle capsule 12 in order to reduce or remove a resistance of the paper fibers of the bottle capsule 12 which counteracts the folding of the bottle capsule 12.
