Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for filling and compressing free-flowing products according to the preamble of the independent claim.
  • a device for filling a fine-grained good is known.
  • a metering device, a guide device for feeding the goods from the metering device into a package, a suction device for sucking whirled, feinkörnigem Good with a suction provided, wherein the guide means is passed through the suction and arranged the guide means and the suction over the packaging are.
  • the invention has for its object to further improve the filling process. This object is solved by the features of the independent claim.
  • the inventive device for filling and compacting free-flowing products has the advantage that the filling process is further improved by a force-controlled filling and pressing free-flowing products is provided.
  • a force-controlled pressing is particularly advantageous to obtain a certain flavor.
  • the device is characterized by a particularly space-saving arrangement, since filling and pressing can be done in only one workstation.
  • a linear drive and / or a pneumatic cylinder are provided as means for applying a force to the punch.
  • the former is characterized by easy controllability.
  • the pneumatic cylinder can be superimposed on a force application by the linear drive.
  • small linear drives can be used, which then take over the force-controlled or force-controlled admission of the stamp.
  • a minimal contact pressure is preferably applied to the stamp.
  • the linear drive acts with a lever mechanism on the punch.
  • This arrangement is characterized on the one hand by a particularly small space requirement.
  • a corresponding lever transmission allows the use of relatively small linear motors for force control or force control of the contact pressure of the punch.
  • detection means are provided for detecting the force acting on the punch.
  • load cells are suitable for this purpose due to their robust design.
  • the measurement data of the detection means can be used for setpoint control of the linear motor. As a result, the achievement of the preselected pressing force is ensured in a particularly simple manner.
  • the detection means is arranged directly above the stamp.
  • loss of friction in the guides arranged above the detection means as well as lever mechanisms play no role.
  • the quality of the force control / force control is further improved.
  • stripping means are provided which prevent adhesion of the product to be compacted on the underside of the punch.
  • Mechanisms that force a rotary movement of the stamp about the longitudinal axis, or also ultrasound devices that can set the stamp in vibration are suitable for this purpose. Thereby the adhesion of the product to be filled is avoided, whereby a consistently high quality of the force-controlled compression or compression of the product sets.
  • At least two punches are arranged displaceably together with the means for applying a force, relative to a filling block, via which the product to be filled is fed to the container to be filled.
  • several punches are also moved with only one movement mechanism for compressing the filled product, while on the other hand it can be ensured that each ram can be moved individually in a force-controlled or force-controlled manner. This further contributes to minimizing the space of the overall arrangement at a consistently high filling quality due to the separately force-controllable or force adjustable punch.
  • two containers 12 are filled with a free-flowing product via a filling block 10.
  • the free-flowing product passes through a product feed 16, which is arranged inclined with respect to a longitudinal axis of a punch 14, in the container 12.
  • an opening of an ejector 44 is arranged which is preferably designed as a ring suction to minimize any product losses.
  • a stamp unit 28 is arranged movable relative to the filling block 10, which is to symbolize the lateral double arrow.
  • the movable punch unit 28 on a plurality of guide bushes 52, which ensure a displacement of the punch unit 28 against fixed guide rods 50.
  • the stamp unit 28 has at its lower end shown by way of example two punches 14, which are connected via corresponding sleeves 43, each with a pressure detecting means 42.
  • Stamp 14, sleeve 43 and load cell 42 are rotatably mounted on a bearing 41 and can be rotated by a arranged in the storage area rotating device 40 to the punch center axis.
  • An output signal of the pressure detection 42 is supplied to a drive device 26, which in turn generates a drive signal for a linear motor 30.
  • the linear motor 30 is a component of the stamp unit 28 which is integral to the construction. A movement of the linear motor 30 acts on a lever arm 31 which is rotatably supported via a bearing point 34 of a bearing block 33.
  • the movement of the push rod 36 and thus of the punch 14 is limited by a stop 35.
  • a guide 38 transmits the movement of the push rod 36 on the punch 14th
  • the mobility of the punch unit 28 relative to the filling block 10 is achieved by connecting guide rods 50 to a machine frame 54 parallel to the direction of travel of the punches 14. On the machine frame 54 and the filling block 10 is located.
  • the guide rods 50 may be connected together above a frame on which a motor 56 rests. This actuates a spindle 58, via which the stamp unit 28 with associated punches 14 along the guide rods 50, mounted in the guide bushes 52, can be moved.
  • containers 12 is the thermoforming of plastic films. In order to generate as little waste as possible, one tries on these systems, the containers 12 as close as possible to arrange next to each other.
  • the device for filling and compressing free-flowing products can be used, for example, on a thermoforming machine to achieve a force-controlled or force-controlled pressing of the product in a confined space after filling the container 12 in a station or a single operation.
  • the container 12 is raised to the mouth of the filling block 10.
  • the product supply 16 which is designed as a bore, the product is metered into the container 12.
  • the dosage can exceed the container volume, since the container 12 rests close to the mouth of the filling block 10.
  • the punch 14 is moved down to compress the product contained in the container 12.
  • the punch 14 is rotated by means of the rotating means 40 in order to avoid adhesion of the product to the punch 14.
  • the rotator 40 is designed as a rack-pinion drive. Other techniques could be used for this, such as vibrating the punch 14. This could be done by means of ultrasound.
  • the entire punch unit 28 is moved relative to the fixed filling block 10.
  • the stamp unit 28 is moved by the motor 56 via the spindle 58 along the guide rods 50 down or up.
  • the stamp unit 28 is supported by guide bushes 52 opposite the guide rods 50.
  • the guide rods 52 may be part of the machine frame 54.
  • the punch 14 is guided axially secured torque. This task is performed by the guide 38, which is preferably designed as a torque sleeve. This ensures that the rotation of the punch 14 is not continued beyond the guide 38 upwards.
  • the actual pressing force is introduced via the lever 31, which has its pivot point 34 in the bearing block 33.
  • a linear motor 30 and a pneumatic cylinder 32 press on the lever 31, which exerts a force on a push rod 36 and the guide 38 via a roller.
  • the stop 35 prevents further movement.
  • the linear motor 30 controls the set force and thus ensures the selected pressing force.
  • the lever arm 31 is used.
  • the pneumatic cylinder 32 also supports the application of a force. By a corresponding pressure preselection and corresponding leverage and relatively small linear motors 30 can be used. Other types of drives than linear motors 30 are suitable for this purpose. You only need to move the lever arm 31 so that the desired pressing force is adjusted to the punch 14.
  • Measured data of the pressure detection 42 can be used to control the setpoint value of the linear motor 30. This ensures the achievement of the preselected pressing force.
  • pressure detection is preferably a pressure force sensor 42, which is designed for example as a pressure cell. Due to the direct arrangement over the punch 14, loss of friction in the guides 38 and in corresponding power transmission mechanisms 31, 33, 34, 36 are irrelevant. The measurement results are thus not distorted.
  • the stamp unit 28 comprises at least two punches 14.
  • the at least two punches 14 can be moved by only one movement device 56, 58.
  • each of the stamp 14 is assigned a separate drive means 30 for pressing force control or pressing force control.
  • the respective lever arms 31 for the respective stamps 14 are arranged one behind the other and interlocking.
