Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for closing containers, which has a feed device, wherein a closure element is fed to a container via the feed device.
  • Closure elements are known, for example, as crown caps.
  • Bottle caps have an external ceiling and a flange comprising an inside.
  • Such a conveyor line for closures with air pressure as a pulse generator is in the generic EP1 803 681 A2 described.
  • the DE 963 223 deals with machines for closing bottles and other containers with crown caps. These machines have so-called cork mills, to which the crown corks run from a cork container. The cork mills drop the cork in the correct position in a channel leading to the capping head. In order to achieve an alignment of the Kronkorke so that always the inside is deposited on the mouth of the container, the beats DE 963 223 to provide two arranged in the same direction circumferential disks at the outlet of the cork mill in a plane, in which magnets are arranged. The crown cords which are attached to the lower pane with the ceiling are conveyed into a channel and fed directly to the capping head.
  • the Kronkorke applied with its flange is detected by the magnet of the upper disc, deflected by the rotation of the disc and thus conveyed into a channel and fed to the capping head.
  • the Kronkorke is oriented in each case with its ceiling upwards and with its flange downwards.
  • the DE 1 183 392 relates to a feeding and sorting device on a capping machine for bottle caps with Abhebelappen, in which a leading to a closing element channel connects radially to a rotating cover plate.
  • a leading to a closing element channel connects radially to a rotating cover plate.
  • the crown corks are pivoted so that their longest extension corresponds to the direction of movement.
  • the GB 2 358 467 A It is known to monitor the completeness and quality of a closure or Kapeninnenkontur means camera.
  • Containers of the aforementioned type can be used for example as bottles for liquids, for example for drinks.
  • the containers e.g. Bottles may be made of a transparent or translucent material, for example of glass or of a translucent plastic, e.g. Consist of PET. It is also conceivable that the containers are made of other materials and can be filled with other filling goods.
  • the filled containers are fed to a labeling machine.
  • the containers are rotated prior to labeling in a certain position, so that the labels are always arranged in a same position on the respective container.
  • the alignment station has at least one detection system, preferably several detection systems, which have design features e.g. so-called Embossings the container recognizes, to which the labels or other markings should be aligned and accurately positioned.
  • the at least one detection system preferably by means of a plurality of detection system, the entire circumference of the container is detected, wherein the containers are mounted on turntables rotatingly guided past the detection systems.
  • the containers are correspondingly rotated by means of the signal generated by the detection system via the turntable in the desired position. If the container is aligned correctly, it is labeled in such a way that the labels are always aligned with the design features (embossings) always the same and desired.
  • the closure element has on its ceiling a decor or identification mark, for example a sign of a beverage manufacturer.
  • a decor or identification mark for example a sign of a beverage manufacturer.
  • the closure elements with their arranged on the ceiling identification marks but based on the design features and thus also applied to the labels randomly, so almost twisted. This results in an overall disturbing picture of the container with respect to the after closure carefully and with great effort aligned container and labels applied thereto or the like markings.
  • the invention has for its object to improve a device of the type mentioned above with simple means so that the closure elements can be arranged with their blanket always the same orientation, for example, labels and / or design features on the container.
  • the object is achieved by a device having the features of claim 1.
  • the object is also achieved by a method having the features of claim 14.
  • the device according to the invention has a container detection system, on which the containers are guided in rotation.
  • the container detection system which has at least one, preferably a plurality of cameras, design features (embossings) of the container are recognized, the respective container being mounted on turntables rotatable.
  • the closure element is first fed to the feed device via suitable conveyors.
  • the closure elements are already preferably oriented so that they are oriented with their flange down, so that the ceiling is directed away from the feed dog.
  • the feeder comprises the lid detection system which is arranged to generate a frontal receptacle of the respective closure member or its cover-side decoration in the random position just existing as the closure member is passed past the lid detection system.
  • both the images and the data of the container detection system and the lid detection system are brought together so that the container rotates on the turntable relative to the detected, random position of the decor of the ceiling of the respective associated closure element becomes. Since the closure element is transported in its detected random position advantageous in its circumferential direction non-rotatable to the container, the closure element is always placed with its cover-side decor equally oriented to design features (embossing) of the container on this or on its mouth opening or discontinued. After placing or depositing on the container or its mouth opening causes a closing a sufficiently tight sealing of the container.
  • the feed device is formed from two counter-rotating transport wheels.
  • a first transport wheel takes over the closure elements from the feed dog and turns them past the lid detection system, which recognizes the decor or other signs of the blanket. Previously, design features (embossings) of the container were detected (container detection system).
  • the respective closure elements are mounted on the first transport wheel for receiving the cover-side decor so that their flanges are oriented towards a center of the transport wheel and the ceiling to the cover detection system.
  • the closure elements can be placed or deposited with its flange oriented towards the bottom of the container, it is advantageously provided that the first transport wheel transfers the closure elements to a second transport wheel such that the respective aforementioned orientation is reversed. At the second transport wheel, the closure elements are thus advantageously mounted so that the flanges are oriented away from the center of the second transport wheel.
  • closure elements are non-positively mounted on the respective transport wheels. It is conceivable, for example, that the closure elements are held by means of magnetic means. This is useful for magnetic closure elements.
  • closure elements are held by means of pneumatic means (suction device) on the transport wheels, which is useful for example in plastic closures or other non-magnetic closures.
  • pneumatic means suction device
  • one of the transport wheels may have magnetic means and the other having pneumatically acting means.
  • other suitable means for holding the closure elements can be provided on the transport wheels.
  • the respective transport wheels have distributed holding devices in their respective circumferential direction.
  • the holding devices are designed in a preferred embodiment as flattened projections which extend away from the peripheral surface of the transport wheel in the radial direction with its receiving side.
  • the holding devices have the holding means (pneumatic, magnetic).
  • the container can be rotated relative to the respective associated closure element according to the correct position (turntable).
  • the transport wheels are designed according to a distance of adjacent containers, so that the respective closure element can be placed or placed on a respective associated container.
  • the feed device is advantageously designed as a hollow cylinder open on both sides, which in a preferred embodiment has a torsion-resistant inner contour.
  • the hollow cylinder On the inside of the hollow cylinder, for example, arranged parallel to a central axis corrugations may be introduced, which avoid twisting of the closure element. It is also conceivable, if a clear diameter of the hollow cylinder is adapted to an outer periphery of the closure element so that prevents rotation, but an axial transport of the closure element is ensured by the hollow cylinder.
  • the closure elements are supplied to the hollow cylinder via the feed dog, and pass from a head side of the hollow cylinder in this.
  • the lid detection system is arranged on the head side to the hollow cylinder and thus looks in each case at the ceiling-side decor of the last incoming or incident closure element, and stores the random position of the decor.
  • closure elements are stacked one above the other in a longitudinal direction of the hollow cylinder. Also by the resulting Gravity can be avoided together with the torsion-resistant inner contour twisting of the closure element.
  • a retaining device is advantageously provided on a side opposite the head side foot of the hollow cylinder, which prevents unwanted falling out of the closure element in the gap of two adjacent containers.
  • the retaining device can be designed with a rotation.
  • the closure element is aligned with its cover-side decor to design features (embossing) of the container and thus later applied to labels or other container markings without the closure element is aligned. Rather, only a random position of the closure element is received and stored, so that only the container must be rotated in the correct position relative to the closure element. After the closure element has been placed or laid down on the mouth opening of the container, a closure element that is switched to downstream effects a sufficient closing of the container.
  • the targeted sealing element also causes a better appearance of the container and improved perception by the consumer.
  • the closure element can be designed as a bounceable closure such as a crown cap. It is also conceivable, however, a closure element in the design as a so-called maxi-crown, twist-off or ring-pull. For example, in a ring-pull closure results in the easily recognizable advantage that the ring is targeted to design features (embossing) of the container or labels.
  • the closure elements according to the invention need not necessarily have a cover-side decor. Rather, the invention should also include aligning the closure element according to its design features and / or its functional features.
  • closure element can be designed as a screw cap.
  • Another advantage of the invention is to be seen as could be accounted for an alignment station with multiple detection systems in the inlet of the labeling machine.
  • a single detection system would be sufficient, which only takes up the position of the closure element, since this is already aligned with the present invention to design features (embossing) of the container.
  • the detection system would look from above on the closure element, and cause a corresponding orientation of the container standing on the turntable.
  • the labeling can be produced more cheaply, since it can be dispensed with a variety of detection systems for recognizing design features (embossing) of the container.
