Problems solved by technology

For example, if a shallow container and a tall container are placed one after the other, filling only according to the filling height or the given volume can lead to, in the first case, overflowing of the shallow container and conversely, the tall container is only filled to an insufficient degree

Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 One embodiment of a system 10 for filling beverage containers 20 is shown schematically. The system 10 has a measuring device 12 which detects a maximum filling level 21 of the beverage container 20 to be filled, which is defined by an upper edge 21 of the beverage container 20 , as well as a current actual filling level 23 . The measuring device 12 is a camera with an image recognition circuit, which stands obliquely above the beverage container 20 . The filling module 11 stands vertically above the beverage container 20 to be filled, whereas the measuring device 12 stands obliquely above the beverage container 20 . Furthermore, the system 10 has a control device 13 . The control device 13 automatically interrupts the filling process as soon as the current actual filling level 23 approximately coincides with a given theoretical filling level 22, wherein the theoretical filling level 22 is defined by a predetermined or individually definable distance from the...

Abstract

The invention relates to a system (10) for filling a drinking vessel (20) with a beverage, wherein a first measuring device (12a; 12) determines the maximum fill level (21) of the drinking vessel (20)to be filled, the fill level being defined by the upper edge (21) of the drinking vessel (20), wherein the first (12a; 12) or a second measuring device (12b) determines the current actual fill level(23) at least cyclically, and wherein a control means (13) automatically aborts the filling process as soon as the current actual fill level (23) substantially agrees with a predefined target fill level (22), wherein the target fill level (22) is determined from a predefined or individually definable distance (24) to the maximum fill level (21). The system (10) according to the invention guarantees optimal filling of vessels of any arbitrary height in a cost-effective and reliable manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system for filling beverage containers with beverages. Background technique [0002] Systems for filling beverage containers with beverages are known in the prior art. For example, document DE 202005015254U1 describes a mechanism for automatically filling beverage containers. In this mechanism, the containers to be filled are conveyed by the transport device to the dispensing device and filled there. In this case, the mechanism has an optical sensor which detects the filling level of the beverage container. The filling process ends when a given level is reached. Document DE 10205944A1 describes dispensing or filling mechanisms in different automation levels. In this mechanism, the cups or containers to be filled are filled automatically by means of the evaluation circuit as specified by the filling program. Furthermore, document DE 9213648U1 describes a mechanism for detecting the liquid level in any container. In this ...
