Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for transporting cylindrical objects, in particular containers during a treatment process, e.g. a sterilization process, based on the generic features of the main claim.
- the containers which roll by means of this device in the transport direction about an axis of rotation transversely to the transport direction are guided in such a way that the containers can be rotated past the coupling area, for example of a plasma source, which for example for the purpose of sterilization can also be seen from EP 0 377 788 AI is known.
- a plasma source which for example for the purpose of sterilization can also be seen from EP 0 377 788 AI is known.
- a device for transporting cylindrical objects, in particular containers is designed such that at least two shafts are rotatable in the same direction, axially perpendicular to the transport direction of the containers.
- the transport device can be arranged, for example, in a treatment chamber with a plasma source for generating electromagnetic vibrations for sterilizing the containers.
- the containers come to rest with their cylinder wall on a shaft and with an end face on an adjacent shaft during transport. Due to the distance between the axes and / or the respective diameters of the shafts, according to the invention a predeterminable angular position of the objects or containers relative to the plane of the axes of the shafts and, furthermore, a self-rotation and also a longitudinal movement of the containers can be effected under the influence of the respective rotational speeds of the shafts. It is also advantageous here if the shafts are inclined at a predetermined angle to the transport direction, so that the speed of the longitudinal movement can thus be adjusted.
- the respective axis spacing and / or the respective diameter of the shafts can be dependent on the geometric dimensions of the cylindrical objects or Containers are determined in a simple manner on the basis of a determination of the center of gravity depending on the angular position of the respective object or container and then predefined.
- the geometrical dimensions include in particular the diameter and the length of the respective object, possibly taking into account the change in the center of gravity of geometric designs of a bottle-like opening area of a container. A wide range of container diameters and shapes can thus be processed with simple setting options.
- a linear transport of cylindrical containers e.g. possible in a sterile surrounding area.
- the respective container will rotate uniformly about its own longitudinal axis so that the entire cylinder surface is accessible via the transport path during the sterilization process and the rotating transport means can also be sterilized on all sides.
- the largely upright containers according to the invention can also be easily transported when filled.
- the container can be transported horizontally and can easily be replaced by baffles or other additional applications, such as a gripper be set up.
- the container can also be transported horizontally, with the restriction that filled containers cannot be transported in this way, so that there is no risk of tipping over.
- the fact that many adjustments and settings of the device can be made from the outside means that there is no lengthy change of components.
- the waves of the transport device according to the invention represent an easily accessible surface for cleaning, sterilizing or similar treatment methods.
- transport tracks with the corresponding shafts can also be implemented in parallel in one treatment chamber.
- the transport can be carried out with low energy consumption because there is only rolling friction on the containers with the lowest friction value at all.
- the device according to the invention can also be used for transporting containers in locks which are connected upstream or downstream, and in buffers between individual stations of packaging lines, and for other purposes, for example to apply color ring markings to containers or to check the contents or the container material on all sides even with camera systems.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of a transport device with a plurality of rotatable shafts and cylindrical containers transported therewith,
- Figure 2 is a detailed representation of two shafts that are inclined in the transport direction of the containers and
- Figure 3 is an illustration of two shafts in section and a container transported therein in a predetermined angular position.
- FIG. 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of a device 1 for transporting containers 2, by means of which the containers 2 are transported, for example via corresponding locks, through a treatment chamber, for example a sterilization chamber, which is not explained in more detail here.
- a treatment chamber for example a sterilization chamber
- the containers can be exposed to a plasma that is generated at a plasma source that is fed, for example, by high-frequency or microwave energy.
- the device 1 has a number of rotatable shafts, of which only the shafts 3 and 4 are identified, since the containers 2 are transported between them, which is explained in more detail with reference to the following figures.
- FIG. 2 It can be seen from FIG. 2 that the shafts, in particular the shaft 3 is shown here, are inclined at an angle ⁇ to the transport direction 5 and the containers 2 rotate according to the arrow 6 during the movement in the transport direction 5.
- FIG. 3 will now be used to explain how the geometrical influencing variables of the device 1 and the containers 2 affect the transport of the containers 2.
- Decisive and determining for the angular position ⁇ of the container 2 is the geometric position of its center of gravity 7.
- This center of gravity 7 essentially depends on the height and the diameter of the container 2.
- a center of gravity curve 11 results with a variable angular position ⁇ .
- the minimum of this so-called spline function is the stable equilibrium position of the container 2 in the bearing system of the shafts 3 and 4.
- the container 2 can in principle be brought into an approximately vertical position by a thickening of the shaft 4 on one side.
- the center distance 10 of the bearings of the shafts 3 and 4 can also be processed.
- the invention can be applied to all machines that transport a cylindrical object linearly in terms of process technology and may not have to be positioned specifically, or even if a transition transport path to a downstream machine has to be formed.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif de transport d'objets cylindriques (2), notamment de contenants, comportant au moins deux rouleaux (3, 4) pouvant tourner dans le même sens, l'axe de rotation desdits rouleaux étant perpendiculaire au sens de transport des objets (2). Lesdits objets reposent sur les rouleaux de manière que la paroi cylindrique desdits objets s'appuie sur un rouleau (4) et le côté frontal desdits objets s'appuie sur le rouleau adjacent (3). L'écart (10) entre les rouleaux et/ou les diamètres (8, 9) desdits rouleaux (3, 4) permettent d'obtenir une position angulaire prédéfinissable ( beta ) des objets (2) par rapport au plan formé par les axes des rouleaux (3, 4), ainsi qu'une rotation propre desdits objets (2).
