Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, in the former method of performing SIP with hot water or the like after performing CIP with a cleaning agent, it takes many steps or time before starting the beverage filling operation.
On the other hand, the latter method of filtering cleaning agents and performing CIP for sterilization can omit SIP, but there is a problem that the cost of an alkaline-resistant cleaning liquid sterilization filter is high, and it is difficult to maintain and manage sterility

Embodiment approach 1

[0040] Hereinafter, Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0041] First, the structure of the aseptic beverage filling device will be described, and then the method of cleaning and sterilizing the device will be described.

[0042] Such as figure 1 As shown, the aseptic beverage filling device has a beverage preparation device 1 and a filling machine 2 for filling beverages into bottles 4 . The brewing device 1 and the filling nozzle 2 a in the filling machine 2 are connected by a beverage supply system pipe 7 . Furthermore, the filling machine 2 is surrounded by a sterile chamber 3 .

[0043] The brewing device 1 is used to prepare beverages such as tea drinks, fruit drinks, and sports drinks in respective desired mixing ratios, and since it is a known device, its detailed description will be omitted.

[0044] The filling machine 2 is configured by disposing a plurality of filling nozzles 2a around a wheel (not shown) that...

Embodiment 1

[0088] Fill the sterilized beverage into a 500mL beverage bottle sterilized in an aseptic environment, and seal it with a sterilized bottle cap in a 600bpm (bottle per minute) beverage filling device. After drinking black tea with milk and sugar, in figure 2 A 4% by mass sodium hydroxide alkaline cleaning solution was prepared in the balance tank 5 shown by the middle thick line, and the temperature in the passage of the thick line was set at 85° C., and it was circulated for 30 minutes.

[0089] In addition, in image 3 A 4% by mass sodium hydroxide alkaline cleaning solution was prepared in the balance tank 10 shown by the middle thick line, and the temperature in the passage of the thick line was set at 85° C., and it was circulated for 30 minutes.

[0090] Afterwards, by delivering normal-temperature sterile water from the sterile water tank 20 to the balance tank 5, according to Figure 4 The thick line passage in the middle is sent liquid and is cleaned, and after clean...

Embodiment 2

[0092] Fill the sterilized beverage into a 500mL beverage bottle sterilized in an aseptic environment, and seal it with a sterilized bottle cap in a 600bpm beverage filling device. After filling the green tea beverage for 20 hours, figure 2 A 2% by mass sodium hydroxide alkaline cleaning solution was prepared in the balance tank 5 shown by the middle thick line, and the temperature in the passage of the thick line was set at 85° C., and it was circulated for 20 minutes.

[0093] In addition, in image 3 Prepare a 2% by mass sodium hydroxide alkaline cleaning solution in the balance tank 10, set the temperature in the thick line passage to 85° C., and circulate it for 20 minutes. Afterwards, by delivering normal-temperature sterile water from the sterile water tank 20 to the balance tank 5, according to Figure 4 The thick line channel in the machine is cleaned by feeding liquid, and then the barley tea beverage is filled into the beverage bottle continuously for 15 hours. N...

Abstract

A beverage filling method which shortens the time or production interval until the beverage filling operation is started. After sterilizing the beverage supply system piping (7) that transports the sterilized beverage from the heat sterilization unit (18) to the filling machine (2), the beverage is delivered to the sterilized beverage supply system through the beverage supply system piping (7). The container (4) is filled and the container is sealed, wherein an upstream side return flow path (6a) is provided with respect to the upstream side piping portion (7a) of the above-mentioned beverage supply system piping via the sterilization portion to form an upstream side circulation flow path (6a) ), a downstream side return flow path (6b) is provided with respect to the beverage supply system piping from the downstream side of the upstream side piping portion to the downstream side piping portion (7b) in the filling machine to form a downstream side circulation flow path , by circulating the alkaline cleaning solution in the upstream side circulation flow path and the downstream side circulation flow path respectively, thereby purifying and sterilizing the beverage supply system piping, and then cleaning with sterile water, start Filling beverages.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of filling beverages in which beverages are filled into containers such as beverage bottles after cleaning and sterilizing beverage supply piping in advance. Background technique [0002] At present, in the beverage supply system piping of the aseptic filling device for beverages, CIP (Cleaning in Place) processing is carried out regularly or when switching beverage types, and then SIP (Sterilizing in Place) processing is carried out (for example, refer to Patent Document 1, 2, 3). [0003] CIP, for example, makes the cleaning solution added with alkaline chemicals such as sodium hydroxide flow through the flow path from the beverage filling path to the filling nozzle of the filling machine, and then makes the water with acidic chemicals added. The washing liquid flows through. As a result, residues of the previous beverage adhering to the beverage filling path are removed (for example, refer to Patent Docume...
