Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0006]
[0001] The present invention relates to an inspection system for an article processing machine for packaging injectable food, and more particularly to an inspection system for inspecting the internal environment of an article processing machine.
[0002] Advantageously, the present invention further relates to an article processing machine for packaging injectable food having an inspection system for inspecting the internal environment of the article processing machine.
Background Art
[0003] It is known that pourable food is packaged in a container such as a bottle in an automatic article processing machine, and the container is closed by respective closures after packaging the pourable food in the container.
[0004] Such an article processing machine includes at least an isolation chamber that isolates the internal environment from the external environment, and one or more processing devices required for packaging injectable substances in the internal environment while the internal environment is maintained under controlled conditions.
[0005] Typical known processing devices include, for example, a filling device for filling a container with an injectable food product, a capping device for attaching a closure onto the filled container, a conveying device for conveying the container or the closure attached onto the container, a sterilization device for sterilizing the container or the closure, a blow molding device for forming a container from a preform, and the like.
[0006] It is often necessary to monitor the packaging process by visual inspection and / or by sensors associated with the changing processing equipment. This may include inspection of the container and / or closure and / or processing equipment functionality. Visual inspection may be performed, for example, by an operator inspecting the internal environment and packaging process through an inspection window. Sensors may be adapted to detect, for example, defects in the container or other possible problems related to the filling process, and may be associated with components of the processing equipment and may be present in considerable numbers.
[0007] A disadvantage is that visual inspection is impossible for all areas within the internal environment.
[0008] Another drawback is that the use of sensors increases the complexity of the operation of the item processing equipment, which becomes increasingly apparent as more sensors are required.
[0009] Therefore, it is desirable in this field to provide means that can enable improvements to known article processing equipment. [Disclosure of the Invention] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

U.S. Patent Application Publication 2006 / 283145 discloses a beverage bottling plant for filling bottles with liquid beverage material, which has an inspection device for inspecting bottles.
[0013] Advantageously, an object of the present invention is also to provide an article processing machine for packaging injectable food in order to overcome at least one of the above-mentioned drawbacks in a simple and low-cost manner.
