Definitions

  • the invention relates to a web element for a container transport system for guiding transported containers with a receiving and supporting element, an interchangeable guide and guide element as container-dependent format part and one or more detent couplings for attaching the guide and guide element to the receiving and supporting element.
  • the use of web elements in a container transport system is common in different container treatment plants such as. Filling machines, labellers, inspection machines or rinsers.
  • the container transport systems must be able to transport various types of containers, such as bottles or cans, so that the respective container treatment system can be used in a variety of ways.
  • the containers can be made of materials such as glass, plastic or metal and differ in size and shape from each other.
  • the containers are particularly suitable for filling with liquids, such as. Beverages.
  • the container transport systems have web elements which consist of receiving and supporting elements for attaching guiding and guiding elements.
  • the guiding and guiding elements are designed in particular as container-dependent format parts and guide the containers through the system.
  • the containers for processing for example, for filling or labeling, are guided by the container transport system and along the guide and guide elements by the container treatment system from one processing station to the next.
  • Both the guide and guide elements for rigid guidance and rotary guide and guide elements are adapted to the respective properties of the container, such as, for example, the container shape, the container weight and / or the container size.
  • the guide and guide elements In order for the container treatment system to be used for different containers, the guide and guide elements must be aligned with the different container sizes, ie in particular the container height and the container diameter.
  • the ideal point of contact of the guiding and guiding element on a bottle depends on the height of the bottle.
  • EP 2 33 490 B1 proposes a connecting device for web elements, in which the guide and guide elements are first displaced in the horizontal direction for release from the receiving and carrier elements and then removed vertically from the container transport system.
  • the device is disadvantageous in particular when using glass bottles, because, for example, due to glass breakage, glass fragments frequently prevent the horizontal movement of the guide and guide elements, so that the replacement of the guide and guide elements is made considerably more difficult.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a web element for a container transport system, in which the guide and guide elements are particularly easy interchangeable.
  • the track element according to the invention for a container transport system for guiding transported containers has a receiving and carrier element, an exchangeable guide and guide element as container-dependent format part and one or more detent couplings for attaching the guide and guide element to the receiving and support element, wherein the detent coupling a latching element and a corresponding latching opening, by which the latching element is at least partially feasible, the latching element is deflectable against a spring force and the latching element is movable between a starting position in which it is insertable into the latching opening and a locking position in which it on the Locking hole is locked.
  • the corresponding detent opening is understood to mean a detent opening which is matched to the detent element and into which the detent element extends transversely to the detent opening, i. along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to the latching opening in the latching opening inserted, at least partially feasible and in each case can be latched to it.
  • the detent coupling differs in particular to the extent that the locking element directly and without screwing through the detent opening - at least partially - is feasible.
  • the locking element may be in the starting
  • the latching element In the locking position position, the latching element can assume different deflection states depending on the embodiment. For example, the deflection of the locking element relative to the spring force associated with the locking position. In the locking position, the latching element can, for example, be deflected from the basic position present in the starting position and locked to the latching opening (in the deflected state).
  • the deflection of the locking element can also be independent of the locking position.
  • the deflection can, for example, take place exclusively when passing through the latching opening.
  • the latching element in the initial position for example, no deflection - it is in the tension-free basic position - when passing through the detent opening it is deflected from the home position - a bending stress is present - and after performing it returns to its basic position ( tension-free), but it is locked at the latching opening, ie can not be removed from the latching opening without renewed deflection from the basic position.
  • an intermediate state is conceivable in which, for example, the latching element undergoes a maximum deflection when passing through the latching opening and, after passing through, is not completely in a stress-free manner Returning home position, but in the locking position continues, for example, a submaximal deflection and thus continue to have a bending stress.
  • the deflection of the locking element in the locking position is particularly suitable, in addition to the bending stress in the locking element and a clamping voltage in the locking coupling, which presses the locking element to the locking opening and thus fixes the locking element to the locking opening to effect.
  • the arrangement of the locking element can be done both on the guiding and guiding element as well as on the receiving and supporting element. Accordingly, the latching element corresponding to the corresponding detent opening is arranged according to either the guide and guide element or on the receiving and supporting element. This makes it possible, for example, depending on the purpose to use the detent coupling individually.

  • the spring arms can have an L-shaped form and, for example, be connected at one end firmly to the guide and guide element or the receiving and carrier element.
  • the latching element is particularly preferably deflected transversely to the feedthrough direction. Transverse to the feedthrough direction means that the deflection takes place radially to a longitudinal axis of the feedthrough direction. The deflection can take place from the longitudinal axis in different directions. In the arrangement of a plurality of latching elements, these can all be deflected in the direction of a central longitudinal axis or all away from the central longitudinal axis.
  • the spring force against which the latching element is deflected also acts in an advantageous manner transverse to the feedthrough direction, but counter to the deflection direction.
