AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, these systems are relatively difficult to clean, and have the additional disadvantage of being relatively inaccurate in filling and sometimes causing damage to the filled fruit.
A further disadvantage of these systems is that when dosing with a plunger filling machine, no further data is provided on the specific composition of the product being filled into the container
In this device, no detection of the perfusion volume is provided, so the control of the perfusion volume by this device is also quite inaccurate

Embodiment Construction

[0075] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram illustrating the method of the present invention. Here the containers 10 are conveyed along the arrow P by means of the integral filling device identified by reference numeral 1 . Initially, the containers are conveyed by means of the supply wheel 22 to a first filling device, generally designated with reference number 2 . In this filling device the first component of the liquid, in particular a beverage, is first supplied to the container in part I or phase I. After the first component has been added, the vessel passes through intermission phase II where no component supply occurs. In phase III, the outlets of the filling parts are opened in order to send all residues of the first component into the container or to remove all residues from the filling pipes. In the next stage IV, all residues of the first component can still fall into the container.

[0076] The first filling device here comprises a conveying device 12 (for exampl...

Abstract

A method for filling a container (10) with a multi-component flow medium, comprising the steps of: - filling a container to be filled with a first component via a first filling device (2); - filling the first component filled with a liquid The container is transferred to the second filling device (4); - filling the container filled with the first component with the second component of the liquid through the second filling device (4). According to the invention, after the first component has been poured into the container ( 10 ), the poured quantity of said first component is determined.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and equipment for filling containers. Various methods and apparatuses are known in the art for filling containers. Also the technique of pouring into containers like multi-component beverages in which several components are mixed is also known in the prior art. For example when referring to fruit juice drinks, which also contain fruit pulp or pulp. These types of beverages are becoming more and more popular. Background technique [0002] In order to fill such beverages, it is known that two components (for example fruit juice and fruit pulp) are mixed before filling the container and that the mixture is finally supplied to the container for filling. Also in the pouring process, methods are known in which the juice component and the pulp component are simultaneously supplied to the container. Also pre-dosing systems like piston filling systems are known in the prior art. However, these systems are relatively diffic...
