Definitions
- the invention relates to a connection head arrangement on a device for treating and / or filling containers, namely kegs, with a valve fitting receiving the keg with the end-face valve fitting facing downward, with the valve fitting lowering to a first peripheral seal of a first outer channel, e.g. resiliently mounted, support plate and with a hollow cylindrical plunger which is axially displaceable concentrically on the first channel from a retracted position into an advanced position, in which it dips into the valve fitting with its front end and, e.g. by moving a seal, separate flow paths into the inside of the plug and a riser pipe of the valve fitting are released, and with a centering cone for the correct positioning in the valve fitting on the first peripheral seal.
- a first outer channel e.g. resiliently mounted, support plate
- a hollow cylindrical plunger which is axially displaceable concentrically on the first channel from a retracted position into an advanced position, in which it dips into the valve fitting with its front end and,
- kegs which have a centrally arranged double valve for beer and gas with a riser pipe on one end.
- Such kegs can be treated automatically within a brewery with the connection head arrangement mentioned at the outset, since the valve fitting remains in the container during the cleaning and filling process, as well as with consumers, and therefore the inside of the keg only to a minimal extent with the outside air when cleaning and filling comes into contact. As a result, there is no need to check the inside of the barrel for contamination or foreign bodies.
- the breweries are inclined to switch to the new keg system.
- the changeover can only be carried out gradually.
- the breweries have to work side by side with two different keg systems for the changeover period, i.e. the treatment and / or filling machines must also be purchased twice. This is an obstacle to the switch to the keg system, which is more advantageous per se.
- connection head arrangement described at the outset is only suitable for treating and / or filling kegs
- the object of the present invention is to design this connection head arrangement in such a way that it can also be used in a simple manner for the automatic cleaning of conventional abdominal barrels .
- a receiving plate preferably with a coaxial to the first peripheral seal, provided for the sealing end of the sheet piling in the peripheral region of the bung opening of an abdominal barrel Circumferential seal, can be placed in the correct position and that the upper screwed hollow cylindrical plunger end can be exchanged for a nozzle element which protrudes with its nozzle head into the abdominal barrel interior in the position of the abdominal barrel which is lowered to the connection head.
- a sealing support of the sheet plate of an abdominal barrel is provided in the opening area of the carrier plate.
- One and the same connection head arrangement can therefore be used for both container systems, ie for kegs as well as for abdominal barrels, with a slight changeover. This makes the investment costs when converting to kegs significantly more profitable.
- the nozzle element has two concentric pipe sections, the inner pipe section being screwable to the lower tappet end and forming a second continuous inner channel with it, and the outer pipe section sealing, preferably by actuating the tappet displacement drive, with an annular flange lays on the first circumferential seal, and thereby forms a continuous channel up to the nozzle head with the first, outer channel.
- the media channels of the connection head provided for the treatment of kegs, that is to say a relatively large flow cross section of the connection head, can thus be used for the internal cleaning of abdominal barrels.
- the nozzle element can be easily screwed on with the lower plunger end in the advanced position after removal of the front plunger end intended for keg treatment, after which the ring flange of the outer tube section can then be sealed with that for keg treatment for the installation of the valve fitting by retracting the lower plunger end Circumferential seal can be brought into the sealing system.
- the pipe sections only need to be in flow connection with one another via openings in the area of the nozzle head.
- the cleaning agent portions to be led into the inside of the abdominal barrel can therefore be fed separately up to the nozzle head.
- connection head arrangement a closed system is obtained for the treatment of abdominal barrels if the centering cone intended for receiving the valve fitting of the keg is fitted as a separate ring, after its removal the receiving plate with a third, lower peripheral seal on the upper edge of the Connection head can be applied sealingly, and the annular space of the receiving head, which is enclosed by the upper edge, preferably opens into a drainage channel with a sloping bottom area.
- the amounts of cleaning fluid flowing out or flowing out of the inside of the abdominal barrel and possibly vapors are collected in the essentially closed annular space and discharged via the outlet channel. This allows a more environmentally friendly treatment of the abdominal barrels.
- the cleaning liquid can be returned more easily.
- the receiving plate has, in the passage opening for the nozzle element on the circumference, preferably uniformly, distributed centering cams protruding beyond the top of the receiving plate and the second circumferential seal.
- these centering cams can also contribute to a centered insertion of the nozzle element into the inside of the abdominal cavity, the centering cams being able to determine an inner cross-section which only slightly exceeds the outer cross-section of the nozzle element without the cleaning fluid outflow through the bunghole being impaired, since there is sufficient free space between the centering cams remain.
- the nozzle element intended for the complete internal cleaning of the abdominal barrel is inserted with respect to the bung opening with centering cams, it has a cross section such that the bung plug remaining in the abdominal barrel cannot be rinsed out of the inside of the abdominal barrel.
- a further treatment station with a substantially smaller cross-section of a nozzle element that can also be screwed onto the connection head according to the invention, which does not need to spray the entire interior of the barrel, but rather only has to be able to dispense sufficient amounts of liquid into the immediate area of the bunghole, so that the bung hole plug already in this area can be flushed out of the bung hole and collected in the drainage channel via the closed annular space.
- connection head 1 as illustrated on the left half of FIG. 1, is intended for the treatment of a keg 2 with an end valve fitting 3 (pointing downwards in the treatment position).
- the lower front edge of the keg 2 is received by a support plate 6, for example spring-mounted, and is pressed from above onto the treatment head 1 until the vent arm 3 is seated sealingly on the face of the first peripheral seal 4 of a first channel 5.
- Concentric to the first channel 5 is a hollow cylindrical tappet 7, which can be moved from a retracted position to the advanced position shown in FIG. 1 by means of a tappet drive 25 having an adjusting piston 39, in which a valve seal 8 of the valve fitting 3 extends their sealing seat is lifted off.
- connection head 1 has a centering cone 13 designed according to the invention as a loose ring.
- the cleaning liquid is guided through the tappet interior via the flow path 10 into the riser pipe 12, from whose upper opening it opens the inner wall of the keg is sprayed. The used cleaning liquid collects downward and leaves the keg interior 11 via the flow path 9 into the first channel 5.
- a mounting plate 14 is placed on the support plate 6 through positioning openings 26 and corresponding positioning pins 37, which has a second peripheral seal on its top 34 has to which a belly barrel provided with a sheet piling plate 15 can abut so sealingly that the bung hole 16, into which a bung screw is screwed in the closed state, is sealed to the outside.
- centering cams 35 are provided, which protrude beyond the surface of the receiving plate 14 and the surface of the second peripheral seal 34 and have sloping centering surfaces from the inside outwards, so that the abdominal barrel when placed on the receiving plate 14 with the Sheet plate 15 is guided in the correct position on the seal 34.
- the receiving plate 14 has a third circumferential seal 28 on its underside. This has a diameter such that, after removal of the centering cone 13, it can lie sealingly on the upper edge 29 of the connection head 1.
- a nozzle element 18 is screwed onto the lower plunger end 23 for the use of the connection head arrangement according to the invention when cleaning the abdominal barrel.
- the length of the nozzle element 18 is such that when the abdominal barrel is lowered it protrudes from the upper dashed position of the abdominal barrel and the receiving plate 14 into the lower extended treatment position into the inside of the abdominal barrel 20 with a nozzle head 19.
- the nozzle element 18 is formed from two coaxial pipe sections 21 and 22, the inner pipe section 21 being screwed with its lower end onto the lower plunger end 23 and at its upper end via openings 27 with the annular channel formed by the outer pipe section 22, which is the first Channel 5 of the connection head housing continues, is in flow connection.
- the inner pipe section 21 forms with the lower tappet end 23 a continuous second flow channel 24.
- the outer pipe section 22 has 19 nozzle openings 43 in its upper curvature to form the nozzle head, which spray the cleaning liquid into the abdominal cavity interior 20 in appropriate cleaning liquid jets and cleaning liquid quantities, if necessary in pulses.
- the outer tube section 22 has an outer ring flange 26 for sealing contact with the first circumferential seal 4, which serves for the valve fitting 3 in the keg treatment of the system.
- the nozzle element 18 can thus be easily screwed onto the lower tappet end 23 with the inner tube section 21 instead of the upper tappet end 17 while the tappet 7 is still in its advanced position.
- the centering cams 35 have lower centering surfaces which rise obliquely from the outside inwards and ensure correct immersion of the nozzle element 18 in the abdominal barrel interior 20.
- connection head arrangement according to the invention can therefore be used both for the treatment of kegs and for the internal cleaning of traditional abdominal barrels.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a modified nozzle element 18 '.
- This has no nozzle openings 43 at the upper end, which should allow the internal treatment of the entire abdominal barrel inner surfaces, but rinsing openings 44, which allow flushing liquid to flow from the second channel 24 'into the inside of the abdominal barrel 20 just so far and in such an amount that it is already in the immediate vicinity Near the bung hole 16 lying bung plug 38 is flushed out and enters the annular space 30.
- the nozzle element 18 ' has a correspondingly smaller cross section compared to that of the Zen Tri fürsnocken 35 certain internal cross section.
- the nozzle element 18 ′ consisting of a single tube section is screwed onto the lower tappet section 23 at its lower end.
- the nozzle element 18 ' can either be provided alternately to the nozzle element 18 on one and the same connection head 1 or in the case of a further connection head 1 arranged downstream of the first connection head 1 in the container transport direction, so that in the first station the interior cleaning of the abdominal barrel and in the second station the rinsing of the plug 38 can be made.
