Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for aseptically filling a package with a fluid and for washing and keeping a filling head space sterile, in which, the packaging being sterile and closed, the filling head space and the part are sterilized. outside of the packaging provided for the entry of the fluid and the packaging is filled with fluid.
- the invention further relates to the device for implementing the method.
- Patent EP-A-0072699 already describes such a process and such a device for the aseptic filling of packaging with a fluid.
- This device has the disadvantages that the filling head space is difficult to clean between two fillings and that it can be infected when a new packaging is put in place, which would have the effect of breaking the asepsis. Indeed, with this device the only possibility for cleaning the filling head space is to operate mechanically, which is not sufficiently effective and safe and the risk of aseptic rupture can induce bacterial development which should be avoided.
- the invention makes it possible to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks by virtue of a sterile steam or air supply both for cleaning the filling head space and for maintaining asepsis.
- the invention relates to a method for aseptically filling a package with a fluid and for washing and keeping sterile a filling head space in which, the packaging being sterile and closed, the space is sterilized filling head and the outer part of the packaging intended for the entry of the fluid and the packaging is filled with fluid, into which, before, during or after the sealing of the packaging, steam or liquid is injected.
- sterile air under pressure coaxially with the filling head so as to move the remaining fluid laterally and the filling head space is protected from infection while maintaining a new atmosphere when placing new packaging constant vapor or sterile air.
- packaging plastic packaging as well as cardboard packaging or any other type of packaging in the food or medical field.
- fluid is meant both aqueous solutions and milk, fruit juices or more viscous products, such as jam, marmalade and others, with or without pieces.
- the residual product is moved in the packaging, either by mechanical means, or by steam displacement, with the packaging open.
- the residual product is displaced by steam or sterile air, packaging closed, so as to discard said residual product.
- the prior sterilization of the filling head space is carried out for 2 to 30 seconds at a temperature between 135 and 165 ° C and under a vapor pressure between 2 and 6 atmospheres.
- the cleaning operation is done with steam, at a pressure between 1 and 4 atmospheres for 0.5 to 2 seconds at a temperature between 120 and 150 ° C. If operating with sterile air, it is introduced at a pressure of between 0.5 and 3 atmospheres and at room temperature.
- a flow rate that provides a screen avoiding any form of infection of the headspace. It is preferably carried out at atmospheric pressure at a temperature between 98 and 110 ° C in the case of steam and at atmospheric pressure and at room temperature in the case of sterile air.
- the invention further relates to a device for implementing this method comprising a filling head, a packaging support placed under the filling head and designed to seal the packaging at the end of filling, said head comprising a valve. for adjusting the fluid inlet flow rate as well as means for actuating it, in which the filling head further comprises a valve for adjusting the flow rate of steam or air as well as means for actuating it , this valve being in coaxial movement with respect to the fluid flow control valve and sliding therein, a fluid inlet and outlet conduit and, laterally disposed on the bottom of the filling head, a valve with a drain line for cleaning at the end of filling.
- the packaging support consists of jaws for holding the packaging in place and a sealing head.
- a packaging with a tip comprising a tear-off outer membrane and an inner closure membrane as shown in the figures and in patent EP 72699, or a package with tip comprising a tear-off outer membrane but without a closure membrane.
- the fluid flow control valve has vapor inlet channels and a bellows membrane.
- the valve for regulating the flow of steam or air has at its bottom a knife and a central steam inlet channel. This valve further comprises at its middle part a cone with a bore for the arrival of steam or air when placing new packaging.
- the filling head designated by (1) comprises a fluid inlet (2) and outlet (3) channel with seal (26), a valve (4) for adjusting the fluid inlet flow, a valve (5) for adjusting the steam supply rate and an outlet pipe (6) for cleaning the filling head.
- a packaging (7) comprising an end piece (8) with a tearable membrane (9) and a closure membrane (10).
- the packaging is held in place by jaws (11), under which is placed the sealing head (12) which ensures the closure of the packaging at the end of filling.
- the valves (4) and (5) are coaxial and vertically movable by pneumatic systems or the like (not shown).
- the fluid inlet valve (4) has a seal (13), steam inlet channels (14) and a bellows membrane (15).
- the steam inlet valve (5) has at its lower part a knife (16) and a central steam inlet channel (17) and closes the steam inlet channels (14) and (17) in its low position. At its middle part, it comprises a cone (18) with a bore (19) for the arrival of steam during the fitting of new packaging.
- the outlet pipe (6) for cleaning and sterilization of the filling head comprises a valve (20), this pipe going either to a bleeder (21), or on a drain pipe (22), a valve (23 ) with three inputs for joining.
- FIG. 1 there is the device according to the invention in its sterilization phase of the filling head space and of the membrane (9). To do this, the fluid inlet valve (4) is closed and the vapor inlet valve (5) is open. The pressurized steam passes through the channels (14) and (17) from A. The side valve (20) is open and the steam goes to the trap (21). The sealing head (12) remains cold, but presses against the end piece (8).
- valve stem (5) goes down, closes the channels (14) and (17), the knives (16) tear the membrane (9), close the valve (20), the valve (4) is reassembled and the fluid arrives via the pipe (2) in the packaging (7), the sealing head (12) being of course come down. This filling phase is not shown.
- Fig. 3 shows the device according to the invention when washing or rinsing the filling head space and sealing the packaging.
- the fluid inlet valve (4) is closed again and the steam inlet valve (5) is opened. This flows under pressure through the channels (14) and (17), so as to move the residual material towards the open line (6), on the drain line (22), the sealing head (12) being in the high position.
- the sealing ring (24) is heated, thus closing the packaging (7).
- the jaws (11) can then release said packaging.
- Fig. 4 shows the device according to the invention before delivering new packaging.
- the fluid inlet valve (4) is closed and the vapor inlet valve (5) is in its highest position, so that the cone (18) presses against the seat (25) of the valve (5).
- the vapor arriving from A passes through the bore (19), which gives a small quantity of vapor which arrives on the channels (14) and (17), thus forming a curtain of vapor which prevents infection of the space. filling head during the change of packaging.
- This provides a very efficient and safe system, in which the risk of infection is minimized by means of a specific steam supply both during the sterilization phase and during the change of packaging to be filled.
