    [001] The invention relates to a method for the time transport of cargo units in a filling machine for fluid products along a rolling path, having a first and a second section, comprising the steps of transporting the load in the first section with a first means of transport and transport of the load in the second section with a second means of transport, unloading of the load from the first means of transport and loading of the second means of transport with the load. In addition, the invention also relates to a device for the timed transport of cargo in a filling machine for fluid products along at least one transport path with a first and a second section, comprising a first means of transport with a timed drive to transport the load in the first section and a second means of transport with a timed drive to transport the load in the second section.
    [002] Filling machines for filling fluid products, in particular liquid foods in cardboard packaging containers are known in the prior art. For the construction of a filling machine, for example, reference was made in DE 41 42 167 C2.
    [003] An unfolded packaging wrapper was placed in a filling machine, in a first section of a transport path for a first means of transport. The first means of transport is generally formed as a gradually rotating mandrel wheel, which has a plurality of pins extending radially outwardly and engaging the folded packaging containers. During a period of shutdown of the timed operation of the mandrel wheel, a working step is carried out on the free ends of the packaging containers. In particular, a packaging bottom is produced by means of folding and pressing tools, so that a semi-open packaging container is produced from the packaging wrapper. As soon as the support mandrel of the semi-open packaging container is vertically downwards, the packaging container is discharged by means of an extractor from the mandrel wheel and thus slides in alignment with the mandrel cell of a second medium. conveyor, particularly designed as a conveyor belt. The open, upward-facing packaging container is upright in the cell and is transported, for example, through a sterile space in the filling machine, in which there is a filling station for fluid products. During a time-out interval of the second mode of transport, a new working step is carried out, particularly the packaging containers are full.
    [004] The first and second means of transport are operated with a coincident timing. Thus the duration of the cycle time depends on the time consumption of the work step along the transport path. This is the filling of the fluid product in the packaging container by means of the known filling machines. During filling, it is possible to avoid foaming and / or excessive acceleration, which causes the filled product to overflow in the packaging container by means of a sufficiently long cycle time. In no case should foam or fluid product reach the inner surfaces of the upper edge of the packaging container, since these surfaces must be kept free of fluids, so that in the next stage the packaging head is formed to allow a perfect sealing by heating and pressing.
    [005] The time required for each filling operation exceeds the time required for the production of the bottom of each package.
    [006] Due to the transfer of the semi-open packaging container from the mandrel wheel on the conveyor belt, however, the timing of the mandrel wheel and the conveyor belt must be coincident. This produces as a result that the cycle time of the chuck wheel timing is very long and the cycle time for the conveyor belt timing measured at the bottom of the time window is technically reasonable, in order to ensure the highest possible yield of the filling machine.
    [007] US 4,588,391 A announces a transfer device for a filling machine, which is located between a mandrel wheel and a main conveyor that runs in a horizontal plane. Along the transport section of the mandrel wheel, a card is molded which is filled by a filling station arranged above the main conveyor. The transfer device comprises a transfer conveyor with several bags, which hold the cards by friction against gravity, as well as a scraping mechanism, to transfer, from a mandrel turned to the transfer conveyor, a card to the conveyor transfer and two cards from the transfer carrier to the main carrier. The main conveyor, the mandrel wheel and the transfer conveyor are operated synchronously, the main conveyor being operated at half a pace with respect to the mandrel wheel and the transfer conveyor. At the first rhythm of the mandrel wheel, a card from the mandrel wheel is transferred to the transfer conveyor while the mandrel wheel and the transfer conveyor are stopped, at the same time as the main conveyor is in motion. In the second rhythm of the mandrel wheel, a card is transferred from the mandrel wheel to the transfer conveyor and simultaneously two cards are transferred from the transfer conveyor to the main conveyor while the mandrel wheel, the transfer conveyor and the main conveyor are stationary .
    [008] EP 0 079 561 A1 has already presented a transport device for the rhythmic transport of cards in a filling machine, which includes a mandrel wheel, a main conveyor that runs along a horizontal plane and a scraping device. A cardboard is molded along the transport section of the mandrel wheel, which is filled by a filling station above the main conveyor. The scraping device is intended to scrape the cards from the mandrels into a positioning device. The positioning device arranged in the extension of the transport section in front of the main conveyor has a track, for the sequential positioning of each scraped card on the main conveyor, and a slide that pushes the card positioned towards the main conveyor. During operation, the mandrel wheel has two shutdown intervals, while the main conveyor operated at half pace has only one shutdown interval. The scraping device and the slide operate at the rhythm of the mandrel wheel. On the main conveyor, for each duty cycle of the main conveyor, a card positioned during the main conveyor stoppage and a card positioned during the main conveyor transport interval is moved.
    [009] The downtime of the main conveyor corresponds, in the solutions according to the document US 4,588,391 A and the document EP 0 079 561 A1, always to that of the mandrel wheel, so that, despite the adaptation of the conveyor the double rhythm of the mandrel wheel, only a relatively short period of time is available to fill the card.
    [010] Finally, US 2008/0010954 A1 has already presented a system for packaging rectangular packaging units in rectangular packaging cartons, which includes a first transport section for the packaging units, a transport section for empty packaging cards and a discharge section for full packaging cards, as well as tweezers to grab a group of packaging units from a collection piece and placing the group of packaging units on the packaging card, which is located in a filling section of the discharge section. The collection piece is at least partially composed of a transport table, which is arranged separately from the first transport section in its extension. The packaging units are transferred to the collection piece individually and one after the other from the first transport section until the group, of for example three packaging units, is complete in the collection piece, which is then gripped by the clamp . As soon as the group is complete, the inflow of packaging units from the first transport section is suspended by means of a stop.
    [011] Based on this state of the art, the invention is based on the objective of proposing a method, in which the cycle time for the critical processing steps in a second section of the transport path, in particular for filling fluid products for inside the packaging container, it is sufficiently adapted, without unnecessary downtime to process the realization of a processing step in the first section of the transport path. In addition, a device will be provided to carry out the method.
    [012] The solution to this objective is based on the idea that the first means of transport, in the first section of the transport route and the second means of transport in the second transport section, are operated with different timings, in which it is arranged between the first and the second section of the transport path is a device for handling the different cycle times between the first and second means of transport.
    [013] More specifically, the objective is achieved by a method of the type mentioned through the following additional steps: - Operation of the first means of transport in a first delay, whose times comprise an interruption interval and a transport interval, respectively, - Operation of the second means of transport with a delay other than the first delay, whose delays comprise respectively an interruption interval and a transport interval, in which each interruption interval of the second delay overlaps with at least two interruption intervals in relation to the first timing. - Unloading each of the load units from the first means of transport during a stop interval of the first delay by means of a handling device arranged between the first and the second section of the transport path; and - Loading of the second means of transport. transport during a stopping interval of the second timing where during this stopping interval of the first means of transport the load is all discharged by means of the handling device.
    [014] A device for carrying out the method is marked by the characteristics of claim 8.
    [015] In the first section of the transport route, a work step is implemented in each loading unit, in particular each packaging wrapper is carried out in a time delay. In the second section of the transport path there is a coincident timing work step, in at least two cargo units, particularly in two packaging containers.
    [016] The timing of the second means of transport is determined in such a way that each stop interval of the second delay overlaps with at least two stop intervals in relation to the first delay. This makes it possible, during a stop period of the first timing, to unload at least two packaging containers from the first means of transport to subsequently carry out the coincident processing step, in particular the simultaneous filling of the container of both packages. during a stop interval of the second timing in the second section of the transport path The duration of the timing cycles of the second timing cycle is preferably an integer multiple of the period of the timing cycles of the first timing. In this way, the stopping and transport intervals of the first and second means of transport can be easily synchronized
    [017] For the filling of the packaging container, it is advantageous that the loading of the second means of transport can take place, particularly of the semi-open packaging containers, arranged in a plurality of landing positions relative to each other arranged in the direction of the transport path. . The packaging containers are then arranged on the second means of transport, which is suitable for an automated system for filling semi-open packaging containers.
    [018] To ensure short transport distances for loading and unloading and a high speed of loading by means of the handling device, unloading then takes place from each of the loading units of the first means of transport in a unloading position, at which is located between two landing positions on the second means of transport. Each loading unit after unloading the first means of transport and before loading the second means of transport is then transported from the unloading position towards one of the disposal positions.
    [019] According to the invention it is advantageous if, both the first and the second section of the transport path, the landing positions in the second means of transport and the unloading position, located between two landing positions, are in one common vertical plane. Thus, the necessary transport surface and therefore the transport space for a filling machine with a device for the timed transport of cargo is kept as small as possible. Depending on this, the conveyor and transport path, which extend partly in horizontal planes and partly in vertical planes, have significantly more base and surface space. In particular, filling machines with several transport paths have become difficult to carry out with transport paths in a vertical plane.
    [020] Each load unit after being unloaded from the first means of transport and before being loaded into the second means of transport which revolves around a longitudinal axis of the load unit is aligned on the handling device for the subsequent processing steps. In particular, for forming the packaging head of a packaging container, it is advantageous if the flaps to be sealed on the packaging heads are aligned in the direction of the transport path. The jaws required for sealing are arranged parallel to the transport path and do not interfere with the transport of the packaging container. In the interest of a high loading and unloading speed by means of the handling device, each load is preferably rotated in a position arrangement during transport from the unloading position.
    [021] To increase the performance of the filling machine over a plurality of transport paths parallel to each other, they are timed, the arrangement and timing of the first and second means of transport and the arrangement of each handling device on all transport routes it is coincident. The drives of the first and second means of transport can be synchronized by the parallel arrangement. On one axis it is possible to place several transport wheels by means of a rotating movement drive. Similarly, in a line in the direction of the transport path, it is possible to align juxtaposed receivers for each second conveyor and can be arranged on a conveyor belt on a conveyor belt. Between the first and the second section of the transport paths aligned parallel to each other, it is possible to install a handling device for loading and unloading the load units. Alternatively, a handling device is associated with only a subset of the transport sections parallel to each other.
    [022] A handling device preferably between the first and the second section of the transport path presents means for unloading the load units of the first means of transport in an unloading position, and means for transporting the load units from the unloading position in the direction of the landing positions and means for loading into the second means of transport with the loading units in the landing positions. The unloading position is at a distance in the direction of the transport path in relation to the landing positions mutually arranged for the load in the second means of transport. The unloading position is preferably located between two landing positions in the direction of the transport route, which are mutually aligned, to keep the transport routes to the landing positions short.
    [023] Since the first means of transport comprises a transport wheel, which comprises a plurality of receivers radially outwardly arranged in parallel for each load unit, said means of unloading the handling device is preferably configured as an extractor, which can be brought in the arrangement to an edge and / or surface of the load units. By means of the extractor, the semi-open packaging containers can be pushed from the radial receivers to an unloading position.
    [024] As long as the second means of transport comprises a conveyor belt, having receivers arranged side by side for each of the load units in the direction of the transport path, preferably as a means of loading, preferably at least two elements of loading are provided. impulse, which can be arranged on a board and / or on the surface of the load units, respectively. The thrust elements are preferably aligned so that they are pushed to transport the load from the unloading position in the direction of the load landing positions on a conveyor belt inlet, which is arranged in a position arrangement. .
    [025] To unload a load unit from the first means of transport and load the second means of transport with at least two load units with only an alternating movement, both the means for unloading and the means for loading from the handling device are preferably arranged on a single axis positioning system.
    [026] The transverse transport of the load units from the discharge position in the direction of the landing positions occurs preferably by means of linear displaceable slides, in which at least two supports are arranged relative to each other in the direction of the transport path. , for cargo admission. The supports in particular capture the outer edges of the semi-open packaging containers, so that the packaging containers by means of the extractor in the vertical direction are movable towards the supports and by means of the impulse elements in the vertical direction are pushed out of the supports.
    [027] Each of the linear slide supports is brought about by moving the linear slide in the horizontal direction or in the discharge position and can also be aligned with the position provisions. In the unloading position, the extractor can load the unloading container from the receivers of the stopped transport wheel that extend downwards and unload it to one of the two supports, which is in the unloading position. Through subsequent transverse transport of the supports by moving the linear slide towards the landing positions, the support equipped with the packaging container is aligned with one of the landing positions to load the second stationary means of transport. For this purpose, the impulse element of the handling device moves in the vertical direction and pushes the packaging casing of the support in the vertical direction to an intake of the conveyor belt, located in a position arrangement.
    [028] The load units are rotationally supported on the linear slide, allowing the displacement of the linear slide and the rotation of the supports in connection with each other, with each of the supports being connected by means of a coupling rod to the structure of the handling device. and the structure of the machine, which by displacement of the linear slide causes at the same time a rotation of the supports.
    [029] The method and device for timed transport according to the invention are explained in detail below. So they are illustrated in the
    [030] Figures 1a - 6b the handling of the packaging container by means of a handling device between a first means of transport and a second means of transport in six stages.
    [031] Fig. 1a shows a raised packaging envelope (1), which is provided with an opening and closing aid (2). The packaging shell (1) for producing a packaging container in the direction of the arrow (3) is pushed into an inlet extending radially outward (4) from a first means of transport in the form of a transport wheel (5). In a second, adjacent, clockwise (6) inlet there is a packaging casing (7), from which through the intake (6) the free ends (8) of the packaging bottom are formed. In the third inlet (9) there is a packaging container (11) with a closed bottom (10). In the fourth inlet (12), arranged perpendicularly downwards is a packaging container (13) in the vertical position for the discharge of the transport wheel (5) on a first support (14) of a handling device (15). The handling device (15) is arranged between a first section of a transport path (46, 47) along the transport wheel (5) and a second section of the transport path (46, 47) over a second means of transport in the form of a conveyor belt (32).
    [032] A single axis positioning system (16) of the handling device (15) has a transverse rod (21), in which both ends by means of bushings (25) on a left transverse guide rod and one right vertical guide rod (26 or 27) can be moved in the direction of the arrow (28) and down in the direction of the arrow (30) (see Fig. 2a) and outwards in an exit position. From the transverse rod (21), an extractor (18) extends perpendicularly upwards. To the left and to the right of the extractor (18) extending from the transverse bar (21), respectively, a thrust element (19, 20) is arranged vertically downwards. The extractor (18) serves the purpose of removing the packaging container (13) from the inlet facing downwards (12) and pushing it onto the support (14, 33), which is located in a discharge position. The extractor (18) is continuous, and pushes against the sides of the respective inlets (4, 6, 9, 12), so that the packaging container arranged in the lower position of the transport wheel (5) can be captured on its edge packaging top (29) and thereby extracted. To ensure the perfect installation of the extractor (18), the intake sides (4, 6, 9, 12) and the means of transport element (31) of the transport wheel (5) form a continuous surface.
    [033] The handling device (15) further comprises as a linear table realized as a linear slide (37) for the transport of the packaging container from the discharge position in the direction of the two landing positions, which are below the impulse elements (19, 20) on the second means of transport, of the conveyor belt (32). The linear slide (37) moves from two horizontal guide rods (38, 39) that slide on the bushings (40) towards the conveyor belt (32), in a backward and forward motion by a drive not represented. On the linear slides (37) there is a first support (14) and a second support (33), movable in the direction of the transport path (46, 47) from respectively four support angles (34) to capture the edges of the container packaging of packaging. The supports (14, 33) are respectively arranged on a rotating table (35, 36) on the linear slide (37) movable at an angle of 90 ° back and forth.
    [034] Fig. 1 b shows an enlarged top view of figure 1c on the handling device (15) from which it can be seen that the illustrated device has two parallel transport paths (46, 47), in which the arrangement and timing of the first and second means of transport on both transport paths (46, 47) is coincident. In the first mode of transport, the two transport wheels (5) for each first section of the transport paths (46, 47) are arranged on a common drive shaft. In this way, the cost of the unit and installation space is reduced, and synchronous operation of the first means of transport is ensured. Obviously within the scope of the invention, as the first means of transport for each transport path, it must be equipped with a transport wheel with its own drive.
    [035] As a second means of transport for both transport routes (46, 47) a conveyor belt (32) is used. For both transport paths (46, 47) in order to use only one conveyor belt (32) each chain link (50, 50 ', 50' ') of the conveyor belt (32) having a unit of cell (51 or 51 '), with four individual cells (52, 52', 52 ''). The cells (52, 52 ', 52' ') are arranged in the direction of the second section which extends linearly from the transport path (46, 47) arranged side by side as inlets for each packaging container respectively. In the cells (52, 52 ', 52' '), the packaging containers are pushed into the two landing positions of each transport path (46, 47). Of course within the scope of the invention, as a second means of transport for each transport path (46, 47) it must be equipped with a conveyor separately.
    [036] In the illustrated embodiment, only one handling device (15) is arranged between the first two sections of both transport paths (46, 47) and the second two sections of the transport paths (46, 47). In order to make it possible for both transport paths (46, 47) to operate with only one manipulation device (15) on the linear slides (37), by moving in the direction of the second section of the first transport path (46) rotary tables (35, 36) are arranged, and two additional rotary tables (35 ', 36') which can be moved in the direction of the second section of the second transport path (47).
    [037] The rotary movement of the rotary table (35) is achieved, so that during the displacement of the linear slide (37) it is rotated through a coupling rod. For this purpose, one articulation (43) of the coupling rod (41) in the machine frame (44) is fixedly arranged, while the other articulation (45) connects the coupling rod (41) in an articulated manner to the rotating table ( 35) through the coupling rod (42). In addition, the coupling rod (42) is rigidly connected to one of the four support angles (34) of the rotary table (35). The rotary drive of the nearest rotary table (36) adjacent to the rotary table (35) on the transport path (46) is achieved by means of a coupling rod (49 '), of the type that is hingedly connected to a control unit. parallel gear with a support angle (34 ') on the rotary table (36') and a support angle (34) on the rotary table (36) in the parallel transport path (47).
    [038] The drive of the rotary table (36 ') is built in mirror image in relation to the drive of the rotary table (35): The rotation movement of the rotary table (36') is achieved, so that it during the displacement of the linear slide (37) is rotated through a coupling rod. For this purpose, one joint (43 ') of the coupling rod (41') in the machine frame (44) is fixedly arranged, while the other joint (45 ') connects the coupling rod (41') in an articulated manner to the rotary table (36 ') through the coupling rod (42'). In addition, the coupling rod (42 ') is rigidly connected to one of the four support angles (34) of the rotary table (36'). The rotary drive of the nearest rotary table (35 ') adjacent to the rotary table (36') on the transport path (47) is operated by means of a coupling rod (49), of the type that is hingedly connected to a unit of parallel gear with a support angle (34 ') on the rotary table (35') and a support angle (34) on the rotary table (35) on the parallel transport path (46).
    [039] Each rotary table (35, 35 ', 36, 36') centrally comprises a square passage opening (48), which substantially corresponds to the rectangular cross section of the packaging container to be transported. It should be noted that each opening (48) on one side has an additional rectangular inlet (53).
    [040] In the description that follows, the procedure of the apparatus described above is explained with reference to Figures 1a to 6b:
    [041] Due to the longer cycle time for filling the packaging container in the second section of each transport path compared to the cycle time for producing the bottom of the packaging container in the first section of each transport path, they are produced during the simultaneous filling of two packaging containers in a conveyor belt timing (32), two packaging bottoms in two time cycles of the conveyor wheel (5) in each transport path (46, 47). As a result, a stopping interval for the conveyor belt (32) is generated which overlaps for filling with two stopping stops for the transport wheel (5) to form the bottom of the packaging and extract the packaging container (13 ) of the transport wheel (5). The handling device (15) compensates for the timing differences between the transport wheel (5) and the conveyor belt (32).
    [042] In Fig. 1a the following situation is illustrated: In a previous cycle cycle of the conveyor belt (32) the cell on the left side (52) of the cell unit (51) was loaded with a packaging container (58 ). In the direction of transport (55) to the right, packaging containers (57) are located in the adjacent cell unit (56). Also located in the handling device (15), that is to say in the right support (33) is a packaging container (54), which was extracted in the previous cycle of the transport wheel (5) of the intake (4), which it is now in a horizontal position facing left to receive the packaging wrapper (1). After extracting the previous time cycle from the transport wheel (5), the packaging containers (54) arranged on the support (33) with the help of the linear slide (37) are moved from the discharge position shown in Fig. 1a , in which the appropriate rotary tables (36, 36 ') through the drive unit (41', 42 ', 49') are rotated by an angle of 90 ° clockwise (see Fig. 1c).
    [043] From Fig. 1a, the auxiliary opening (2) arranged in the direction of transport are visible on the transport wheel (5). For technical reasons, the placement and sealing of the opening aids (2) in a packaging envelope (1) is only possible with this orientation. Since the packaging head of each packaging container is sealed after the flow is filled, each packaging container must before sealing in one of the cells (52, 52 ') of the conveyor belt (32) by means of the rotating tables (35, 35 ', 36, 36') be rotated 90 °, so that the opening devices (2) are aligned transversely to the direction of transport.
    [044] The next step illustrated in Fig. 1a consists of the fact that, simultaneously with the removal of the packaging container (13) by means of the inlet extractor (18) (12) located in the support disposed in the discharge position (14) the right impulse element (19) the packaging container (54) in the support (33) is inserted into the underlying cell (52 '), which is located on the right side of the two landing positions. In Figure 2a, it can be seen that the cells (52, 52 ') in the chain links (50) are now fully loaded with packaging containers (58, 54). During this loading, the packaging casings (1) are likewise pushed completely into the empty inlets (4) of the transport wheel (5).
    [045] Fig. 2b shows the rotation directions of the rotary tables (35, 35 ') at an angle of 90 ° clockwise and the rotary tables (36, 36') at an angle of 90 ° anti-clockwise schedule. The rotation takes place as soon as the linear slide (37) moves to the left in the direction of the arrow (59) to the position shown in Fig. 3a.
    [046] In Fig. 3a the loaded conveyor belt (32) has not yet moved, because the filling machine's filling process is still in progress. The transverse rod (21) of the positioning system (16) is moved according to Fig. 2a from the bottom position and guided in the direction of the arrow (30) upwards to the exit position shown in Fig. 3a, so that the transport wheel (5) with the inlet (9) rotates 90 ° in the lower position in the direction of the rotation arrow (60). After rotation, the nearest packaging container (11) is in the position shown in Fig. 4a, where the inlet (9) is facing downwards to be subsequently removed from the inlet (9).
    [047] After that, the linear slide (37) from the right position shown in figures 2a, b in the direction of the arrow (59) is moved to the left, to the position shown in figures 3a, b. During the movement of the linear slide, the rotary tables (35, 35'and 36, 36 ') are rotated respectively by 90 ° rotation to the right or to the left, as shown in Fig. 3b.
    [048] By moving the linear slide (37), the left support (14) is now in the left cell (52) of the left chain link (50 '), which is located on the left side of the two landing positions . The support (14) was rotated 90 ° clockwise. The transport wheel (5) is rotated in the direction of the rotation arrow (60) 90 ° clockwise, so that the next packaging shell (1) can be extracted from the intake (9). This rotation of the transport wheel (5) is carried out in Figure 4a. Now the simultaneous removal of the packaging container (11) from the intake (9) in the support (33) can take place and the packaging container (13) can be pushed out of the intake (14) in the cell (52) in the direction of the arrow (28). The vertical displacement carried out of the packaging container (11, 13) is shown in Fig. 5a.
    [049] During the previously described loading of the cell units (51) with two packaging containers (13, 54) in each transport path (46, 47) the filling operation is completed. The conveyor belt (32) is now guided in a transport interval in the direction of the rotation arrow (61) moved around the length of a chain link (50 ', 50) and the cross rod (21) of the control system positioning (16) of the lower position shown in Fig. 5a in the direction of the arrow (62) leading to the outlet position shown in Fig. 6a, so that the cell (52 '') can now be loaded with the container of packaging (11). According to the method, the transverse rod (21) in the exit position the linear slide (37) is moved from the left, in the position shown in Figure 5b to the right, in the direction of the arrow (59 ') in the position shown in Fig. 6a.
    [050] The transport wheel (5) rotates at an angle of 90 ° clockwise, whereby the inlet (6) passes to a downward position above the discharge position for the packaging container (7). Thus, the device for timed transport returns back to the exit position, which is shown in Fig. 1a, b.
    [051] At this point in time, a timed operation of the conveyor belt (32) has ended, in which, in the time interval, two packaging containers on each transport path (46, 47) are filled.
