Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of filling longitudinal sealing, and more specifically, it relates to a longitudinal sealing hot air blocking component of a sterile filling machine that uses hot air longitudinal sealing for packaging. Background Technique
[0002] Currently, in the aspect of fluid food processing, there is a brick-shaped sterile filling machine with a longitudinal sealing chamber in a sterile environment. Its function is to roll a sheet-shaped packaging material into a column and seal the longitudinal joint of the connected columns through sterile hot air, and then enter the filling and transverse sealing stages to complete the filling and forming of the product. In this sterile longitudinal sealing chamber, the columnar packaging material is generally filled through a filling pipe extending into the columnar packaging material. And generally, a hot air heating plate is used to heat and longitudinally seal the longitudinal joint of the columnar packaging material. Before longitudinal sealing and filling, a positive pressure sterile environment is established in the longitudinal sealing chamber. This sterile environment is established and maintained by a filtered sterile air (hot air) circulation system. The sterile air is pressurized by an air pressure device, reaches a predetermined temperature through a main air heater, enters the sterile chamber through the air outlet on the surface of the longitudinal sealing heating plate, and blows towards the position of the composite film that needs to be heated to complete the longitudinal sealing of the columnar packaging material. Among them, the longitudinal sealing heating plate can be rotated and adjusted as a whole around the columnar packaging material to adjust the hot air blowing angle. The sterile air (hot air) blowing towards the packaging will be recycled through the hot air recovery port, and the recycled sterile air will be reheated to ensure the temperature requirements during recycling. The entire circulation system is a closed pipeline, and the entire process is in a sterile environment.
[0003] Generally, the inner wall of the used columnar packaging material uses a composite film with an aluminum foil material as an isolation layer to block light and isolate oxygen. During the process of the columnar packaging material being rolled into a column and moving downward, because heating sealing strips are arranged on both sides of its longitudinal joint, the hot air blown out by the longitudinally arranged longitudinal sealing heating plate in the longitudinal sealing chamber heats the heating sealing strips, causing them to bond, and then causing the columnar packaging material to bond. Moreover, the bonded columnar packaging material is in a continuous downward moving assembly line operation to continuously heat-seal the longitudinal joint of the columnar packaging material and will not cause the aluminum foil material to be deformed and fall off due to continuous blowing at a certain position of the packaging.
[0004] However, during continuous production operation, there is a need for short stops due to material shortage or packaging material replacement, and there may also be short abnormal shutdowns. To ensure production efficiency and avoid time and energy losses caused by restarting the machine, it is necessary to ensure that the positive pressure and temperature in the sterile environment of the longitudinal sealing chamber are not changed. Therefore, the longitudinal sealing heating plate of the filling machine will still continuously blow out hot air. However, at this time, the columnar packaging material is in a stationary state. The filling machine is equipped with an automatic control device that can horizontally move the longitudinal sealing heating plate around the filling device. It can automatically control its movement when the filling machine has a short stop or abnormal shutdown. However, even if the longitudinal sealing heating plate is automatically adjusted to change the direction of the hot air blowing, there will still be a phenomenon that the longitudinal sealing heating plate continuously blows hot air towards the surface of the columnar packaging material, resulting in the aluminum foil layer on the inner wall of the columnar packaging material being heated for too long and falling off and sticking to the filling pipe. As the product is filled, it flows into the product, threatening the product quality. Inevitably, it is necessary to clean or restart the machine, seriously affecting the normal filling and longitudinal sealing process and reducing work efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, how to provide a sterile longitudinal sealing chamber with a longitudinal sealing hot air blocking component that can block the hot air of the longitudinal sealing heating plate, avoiding the problem that when the filling machine has a short stop or abnormal shutdown, the aluminum foil layer on the inner wall of the columnar packaging material is heated for too long due to the longitudinal sealing heating plate continuously blowing hot air towards the columnar packaging material, falling off and sticking to the filling pipe, and finally the aluminum foil layer sticking to the filling pipe flows into the product during product filling, threatening the product quality, is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] In view of this, the present utility model provides a sterile longitudinal sealing chamber on a filling machine. A longitudinal sealing hot air blocking component is installed and finely adjusted and fixed in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber. When the longitudinal sealing of the filling machine stops, the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element can be rotated to horizontally rotate around the columnar packaging material, making the air outlet away from the longitudinal seam of the packaging material. At the same time, the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking component is spaced to block between the columnar packaging material and the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element, and a hot air recovery pipe is provided to guide and recover the hot air, so as to prevent the hot air from continuously blowing towards the packaging material and continuously heating the inside of the box, thereby preventing the packaging aluminum foil layer from falling off.
[0007] To achieve the above object, the present utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] A sterile longitudinal sealing chamber on a filling machine, comprising:
[0009] A chamber body, in which a columnar packaging material continuously passing through the chamber body is provided, and the columnar packaging material is provided with a longitudinal seam;
[0010] A longitudinal sealing hot air heating element, which is hinged on the inner wall of the chamber body and rotates between a heat sealing position and a standby position corresponding to the outer peripheral side of the columnar packaging material to heat seal the longitudinal seam;
[0011] Longitudinal sealing hot air blocking assembly, the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking assembly includes a connecting rod assembly and a hot air baffle, one end of the connecting rod assembly is detachably connected to the inner wall of the chamber body, and the other end is connected to the hot air baffle; the hot air baffle is located between the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element and the columnar packaging material for blocking the hot air from blowing towards the columnar packaging material direction when the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element is in the corresponding standby position;
[0012] Hot air recovery pipe, the hot air recovery pipe is installed on the inner wall of the chamber body and is communicated with a recovery fan outside the chamber body.
[0013] Through the above technical solutions, it can be seen that compared with the prior art, the present utility model discloses a sterile longitudinal sealing chamber on a filling machine. The longitudinal sealing hot air blocking assembly is arranged in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber of the filling machine. A perfusion pipe and a columnar packaging material to be longitudinally sealed that continuously penetrates the sterile chamber body and moves thereon are arranged in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber. When the longitudinal sealing work is normally carried out, the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber is moved to a position where its air outlet end is opposite to the longitudinal joint of the packaging. The hot air baffle is adjusted to a position away from the longitudinal joint through the connecting rod assembly and fixed. At this time, the hot air baffle will not block the hot air of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element. The hot air discharged by the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element can directly blow towards the joint of the packaging to seal the packaging, completing the longitudinal sealing process. At the same time, the hot air recovery pipe recovers the internal hot air and reheats it to keep the temperature and air pressure in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber from changing greatly; when the filling machine accidentally stops, in order to ensure that the temperature and air pressure inside the sterile chamber remain unchanged, the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element still needs to continuously supply hot air. At this time, the air outlet end of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element is automatically controlled by an external automatic control device to automatically move horizontally to the position where the hot air baffle is set, so that the hot air baffle is placed between the air outlet end face of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element and the outer side wall surface of the columnar packaging material. The hot air discharged by the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element is directly blocked by the hot air baffle to form a hot air guiding channel, which can prevent the hot air discharged by the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element from directly blowing onto the outer side wall of the columnar packaging material, thereby avoiding the continuous heating of the position on the columnar packaging material corresponding to the longitudinal sealing hot air heating element and causing the aluminum foil layer to fall off. And because there is a hot air recovery pipe installed in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber, it can just attract the hot air isolated by the hot air guiding channel to the hot air recovery pipe and suck it out through the recovery fan. Because the recovery fan is connected to the hot air heating device outside, the hot air can be recovered and reheated twice. Therefore, the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking assembly fixedly installed in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber, through cooperation with the horizontally movable longitudinal sealing hot air heating element and the hot air recovery pipe, realizes the function of blocking and guiding hot air during shutdown, avoids the phenomenon of the aluminum foil layer of the composite film falling off caused by overheating, improves the production efficiency of filling and longitudinal sealing, ensures the continuity of work, reduces energy consumption, material loss and packaging material loss. More importantly, it eliminates the potential product foreign matter risk and ensures product quality.
[0014] Further, the longitudinal-sealing hot-air blocking assembly further includes a fixing plate, one end face of the fixing plate is detachably connected to the inner wall of the chamber body, and the other end face is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod assembly.
[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that the longitudinal-sealing hot-air blocking assembly can be conveniently disassembled.
[0016] Further, the connecting rod assembly includes a fixed rod, an angle adjusting rod and a bolt. One end of the fixed rod is fixedly connected to the inner end face of the fixing plate, and the other end is detachably connected to the angle adjusting rod through the bolt. The other end of the angle adjusting rod is fixedly installed on the windward surface of the hot-air baffle.
[0017] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that when installing the hot-air baffle, the initial angle of installation of the hot-air baffle can be adjusted and fixed through the adjusting rod to prevent it from interfering with the normal longitudinal sealing work of the longitudinal-sealing hot-air heating member on the cylindrical packaging material and avoiding damage caused by mutual collision between the two during the subsequent adjustment process of the longitudinal-sealing hot-air heating member; in subsequent work, in the non-working state of a complete shutdown, the staff can loosen the bolt and then adjust the adjusting rod to perform periodic maintenance and adjustment on the hot-air baffle to prevent its position and angle from shifting during long-term work and affecting other structures, and the adjustment work can be completed through the adjusting rod without disassembling and reinstalling the hot-air baffle, improving the equipment maintenance efficiency.
[0018] Further, the other end of the fixed rod has a first connection platform, one end of the angle adjusting rod has a second connection platform, and the first connection platform and the second connection platform are detachably connected through the bolt.
[0019] Further, a threaded hole is formed in the first connection platform, a through hole is formed in the second connection platform, and the bolt passes through the through hole and is screwed into the threaded hole.
[0020] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that the connection between the fixed rod and the angle adjusting rod can be facilitated, and the rotational adjustment of the angle adjusting rod can be facilitated.
[0021] Further, the fixing plate, the fixed rod, the angle adjusting rod and the hot-air baffle are all stainless steel parts.
[0022] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is to prevent the device from rusting inside and extend the service life of the device.
[0023] Further, the longitudinal-sealing hot-air heating member includes:
[0024] A hot air supply box, which is fixed on the inner wall of the chamber body and is communicated with an external air heating device;
[0025] A connecting piece, one end of which is hinged to the outer end face of the hot air supply box;
[0026] A longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate, which is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting piece. The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate has a hot air cavity inside. The hot air cavity is connected to the hot air supply box through a ventilation pipe. A plurality of hot air outlets communicating with the hot air cavity are arranged on one side surface of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate. The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate rotates between the heat sealing position and the standby position on the outer peripheral side of the columnar packaging material to heat-seal the longitudinal seam by the hot air blown out through the hot air outlets.
[0027] Further, the connecting piece includes a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod. One end of the first connecting rod is hinged to the hot air supply box, and the other end is hinged to one end of the second connecting rod. The other end of the second connecting rod is fixed to the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate.
[0028] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that the position angles of the two rod bodies can be adjusted by adjusting the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, avoiding the collision of the first connecting rod, the second connecting rod and the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate with other structures during horizontal movement to ensure the safety of the equipment.
[0029] Further, the hot air recovery pipe is installed at the bottom of the aseptic longitudinal sealing chamber and is located below the hot air baffle.
[0030] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that the hot air recovery pipe can conveniently recover the hot air at the hot air guiding channel directly, avoiding the hot air from dispersing to the surroundings inside the aseptic longitudinal sealing box, improving the hot air recovery effect. At the same time, the hot air is recovered into the external air heating device for air heating again to form a hot air cycle and reduce the energy consumption.
[0031] Further, the hot air baffle is an arc-shaped plate, and the outer wall surface of the arc-shaped plate is the wind-blocking surface.
[0032] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that by setting the hot air baffle as an arc-shaped plate, the wind-blocking area can be increased by relying on the arc surface, so that the hot air baffle can block the hot air blown out from the air outlet end of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating part, reducing the adjustment angle of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating part and avoiding the collision and damage between the two, and prolonging the service life of the device.

[0045] An embodiment of the longitudinal seal hot air blocking assembly 4 in the present utility model. The longitudinal seal hot air blocking assembly 4 further includes a fixing plate 43. One end face of the fixing plate 43 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the chamber body 1, and the other end face is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod assembly 41.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the fixing plate 43, the fixed rod 411, the angle adjusting rod 412, and the hot air baffle 42 are all stainless steel parts, which can prevent the device from rusting inside and prolong the service life of the device.
[0050] Another embodiment of the present utility model. The longitudinal seal hot air heating element 3 includes:
[0051] A hot air supply box 31, which is fixed on the inner wall of the chamber body 1 and is communicated with an external air heating device;
[0052] A connecting member 32, one end of which is hinged to the outer end face of the hot air supply box 31;
[0053] The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting member 32. The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33 has a hot air cavity inside. The hot air cavity is connected to the hot air supply box 31 through an air pipe 34. A plurality of hot air outlets 331 communicating with the hot air cavity are provided on one side surface of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33. The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33 rotates between the heat sealing position and the standby position on the outer peripheral side of the columnar packaging material 2 to heat-seal the longitudinal seam 21 by the hot air blown out from the hot air outlets 331.
[0054] In the above embodiment, the connecting member 32 includes a first connecting rod 321 and a second connecting rod 322. One end of the first connecting rod 321 is hinged to the hot air supply box 31, and the other end is hinged to one end of the second connecting rod 322. The other end of the second connecting rod 322 is fixed to the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33. The position angles of the two rod bodies can be adjusted by adjusting the connection part of the first connecting rod 321 and the second connecting rod 322, so as to avoid the first connecting rod 321, the second connecting rod 322 and the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33 from colliding with other structures during horizontal movement, and ensure the safety of the equipment.
[0055] In the above embodiment, the fixing plate 43 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the side plate of the back plate adjacent to the aseptic longitudinal sealing chamber. The rod body of the first connecting rod 321 abuts against the edge end of the hot air baffle 42. When adjusting the hot air baffle 42 and the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking assembly 4 respectively, the angle adjusting rod 412 and the first connecting rod 321 can be made not to interfere with each other, which is convenient for adjusting their positions, and can avoid their mutual collision and collision damage to other structures in the aseptic longitudinal sealing chamber, reducing the use risk.
[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, the hot air baffle 43 is an arc-shaped plate, and the outer wall surface of the arc-shaped plate is the wind blocking surface. The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33 is a square plate. The longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 3 is arranged at an interval with the hot air baffle 42 and is parallel to the arc-shaped section on the hot air baffle 42. During a short stop, the hot air blown out from the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33 can be blocked by the hot air baffle 42, which is the best angle for the hot air baffle 42 to block the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate 33.
[0057] In another embodiment of the present invention, the hot air recovery pipe 5 is installed at the bottom inside the aseptic longitudinal sealing chamber and below the hot air baffle 42. It is convenient for the hot air recovery pipe 5 to directly recover the hot air blocked by the hot air baffle 42, avoid the hot air from dispersing to the surrounding of the aseptic longitudinal sealing chamber, improve the hot air recovery effect, and at the same time communicate with an external air heating device to heat the air again, forming a hot air cycle and reducing energy consumption.
[0058] The working principle of the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking assembly on a filling machine in the present invention is as follows:
[0059] The filling machine is equipped with a sterile chamber, and the process of longitudinal sealing during filling can be completed in the sterile chamber. Before starting filling, open the sterile chamber door, install the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking component into the sterile longitudinal sealing box, install the fixed plate on the inner side plate of the sterile longitudinal sealing box, loosen the bolts, and adjust the adjusting rod to adjust the horizontal position and angle of the hot air baffle so that it is at a position away from the longitudinal seam of the columnar packaging material and fix it, then the installation of the hot air baffle can be completed. During subsequent use, only adjust the angle of the hot air baffle through the adjusting rod; then, adjust the second connecting rod to manually rotate and debug the longitudinal sealing hot air heating component so that the air outlet plate of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating component is parallel to and corresponding to the hot air baffle, and ensure that the first connecting rod does not collide with the hot air baffle during movement. At this time, fix the bolts to keep the hot air baffle fixed at the same position, and then adjust the first connecting rod to rotate the longitudinal sealing hot air heating component to the longitudinal seam of the columnar packaging material so that the air outlet plate faces the longitudinal seam, thus completing the adjustment of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating component. After that, the machine can be started to normally carry out the filling and longitudinal sealing work.
[0060] When the machine needs a short stop or an emergency stop due to a malfunction, it is necessary to turn off the filling device and the conveying device of the columnar packaging material. However, to ensure that the temperature and air pressure in the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber do not change significantly due to the machine stop, the longitudinal sealing hot air heating component will maintain the air supply state. Because the filling device stops, at this time the columnar packaging material is in a stagnant state. To avoid the hot air continuously blowing on the same position of the columnar packaging material, through the automatic control device of the longitudinal sealing hot air heating component outside the sterile longitudinal sealing chamber, the longitudinal sealing hot air heating plate automatically moves and adjusts to move to the position of the hot air baffle so that the hot air baffle is exactly between the air outlet plate and the columnar packaging material. After the hot air outlet continuously blows out air, a hot air guiding channel is formed between the hot air outlet and the back side of the hot air baffle, and then the hot air is guided and recovered through the hot air recovery pipe directly below to form a hot air cycle, achieving the internal temperature and air pressure balance. And because the hot air does not continuously blow on the outside of the columnar packaging material, the composite aluminum foil layer on the columnar packaging material will not fall off and adhere to the filling pipe due to continuous temperature rise, preventing it from entering the package together with the product and affecting the product quality.
[0061] Therefore, the longitudinal sealing hot air blocking component in the present utility model can block the hot air when the filling machine has a short stop, and at the same time cooperate with the hot air recovery pipe to guide and recover the hot air, maintaining the balance inside the sterile box body to protect the aluminum foil layer on the stagnant columnar packaging material from being damaged, without the need to replace the columnar packaging material and clean the filling device, improving the production efficiency of filling and longitudinal sealing, ensuring the continuity of work, reducing energy consumption, material loss and packaging material loss. More importantly, it eliminates the potential risk of product foreign objects and ensures the product quality.
