Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of packaging in a container of a product comprising different miscible ingredients.
  • Filling installations are known from example of rotating carousels, including a tank associated with a series of filling.
  • a product consisting of a mixture different miscible ingredients must be introduced in containers, the mixture is first made with all the ingredients and is introduced into the feed tank prior to the commissioning of the the filling installation.
  • Such a method of conditioning is satisfactory when a very large number of containers must be filled with a product of constant composition and when the total volume of filled containers corresponds substantially to the capacity of the feed tank.
  • a method of packaging in containers of a liquid product comprising different miscible ingredients using a filling installation comprising at least two filling stations of the liquid product, the process being characterized in that it comprises the steps of fill containers partially with a first part of the ingredients at a first station of filling comprising a series of filling, to transfer the receptacles to corresponding filling of at least one second station filling and filling the filling of containers with the rest of the ingredients.
  • the ingredients introduced into a container at each filling station are determined by correspondence with the container, for example by reading a code carried by the container.
  • Each container receives so automatically the different ingredients constituting the composition provided for this container.
  • the installation illustrated comprises an input conveyor 1 conveying containers 2 to a transfer device 3 serving to successively introduce the containers 2 into a first filling station 4 comprising a series of filling stations 5 connected by pipes 6 to a feed tank 7.
  • the containers 2 are taken up by a device of transfer 8 which introduces them to a filling station 9 a second filling station 10 comprising also a series of filling stations 9 that are connected by pipes 11 to a feed tank 12.
  • a transfer device 13 At the exit of the second filling station, the containers 2 are taken over by a transfer device 13 to convey them to a conveyor 14 for the purpose of bring to the next workstation, for example a stopper or packaging station.
  • the illustrated installation includes a sensor 15 disposed opposite the containers at the moment where these are introduced by the transfer device 3 on the first filling station 4.
  • the sensor 15 is connected to a control unit 16 which provides the order quantities of ingredients introduced into a container at each filling station as schematized by double arrows in fine lines.
  • the sensor 15 When a container 2 is introduced into the first filling station the sensor 15 ensures a detection of a code carried by the container, for example reading a barcode, and transmits it to the control unit 16 which otherwise receives so known in itself the indication of the serial number of the filling 5 which receives the container.
  • the unit of command 16 thus ensures a correspondence between a container and filling station in which the container is introduced.
  • the code carried by the container is significant of the composition that the container is intended to receive and the control unit is thus in able to ensure the introduction of the required quantities of each product contained in the feed tank of the different filling stations.
  • a conditioning of milk can be provided for example of dispose in the feed tank 7 of the first filling station 4 of the skimmed milk while the feed tank 12 of the second station of fill 10 contains whole milk.
  • the control unit 13 triggers the filling of only half of the container at the corresponding filling of the first station of filling 4, and the complement to the filling station corresponding to the second filling station 10.
  • the container If the bar code carried by the container corresponds to skim milk the container is totally filled at the first filling station. contrary the barcode corresponds to whole milk the container receives nothing during its passage in the first filling station 4 and is fully filled when passing through the second station of filling 10.
  • the invention is not limited to implementation method described and can be variants without going beyond the scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
  • the method can be carried out according to the invention by providing for a direct programming of the control unit 16 to ensure the filling of a number of containers with a composition given then modify the composition to fill a new series of containers.
  • each feed tank may also contain a single ingredient or a mixture of ingredients when this mixture is common to different compositions.
  • the containers are transferred to different stations corresponding to the elements necessary to constitute the required composition, this which makes it possible to successively complete the filling of containers with the rest of the ingredients.
  • the receptacles bear a code bars but do not have a privileged orientation to moment of their loading to a filling station or can provide multiple sensors to ensure a reading the barcode whatever the orientation of the container.
