装システム装置の改良に関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention involves producing a cylindrical container with a bottom from a packaging container material made by cutting laminated paper, and then filling the container with a material to be filled.
The present invention relates to an improvement in an automatic packaging system that seals an opening to complete a packaged product in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped.

直方体状の包装品を完成させる自動包装システム装置が
開発されている。In recent years, bottomed cylindrical packaging containers have been made from packaging container materials made by cutting laminated paper made by laminating thermoplastic plastic films such as polyethylene onto paper and forming this into a cylindrical shape. An automatic packaging system device has been developed that completes a rectangular parallelepiped-shaped package by sealing the opening after filling the product.
一方、たとえばジュース、酒等の飲料を被充填物とする
充填自動包装システム装置においては、衛生的な見地か
ら充填工程以前に容器の殺菌を行なうようになっている
。On the other hand, in automatic filling and packaging systems for filling beverages such as juices and alcoholic beverages, containers are sterilized before the filling process from a hygienic standpoint.
従来における容器の殺菌方法として次の２つがある。There are two conventional methods for sterilizing containers:
（ａ）ウェブ状の積層紙から包装容器素材を切断する前
にウェア状の積層紙を殺菌する方法。(a) A method for sterilizing laminated paper in the form of a ware before cutting the packaging container material from the laminated paper in the form of a web.
（ｂ）ウェア状の積層紙から切断した展開状容器素材を
有底筒状に成形した後に殺菌する方法。(b) A method in which an expanded container material cut from laminated paper in the form of wear is formed into a cylinder with a bottom and then sterilized.
等がある。etc.
しかしながら、（ａ）のものは殺菌したにもかかわらず

露出し、この切断面に存在する菌による悪影響を防止で
きない。また、（ｂ）のものは殺菌する前に容器の底部
を折込み成形してしまうため、この折込み部に存在する
菌による悪影響を防止できないといった問題があった。However, in the case of (a), even though it has been sterilized, a new, unsterilized surface of the packaging container material is exposed by cutting, and the adverse effects of bacteria present on this cut surface cannot be prevented. Further, in the case of (b), since the bottom of the container is folded and molded before sterilization, there is a problem in that it is not possible to prevent the harmful effects of bacteria present in the folded part.
そこで、近時、このような問題点を解決すべくウェア状

た自動包装システム装置が本発明者等によって開発され
つつある。Recently, in order to solve this problem, sterilization has been carried out by immersing the cylindrical packaging container material in a sterilizing solution before cutting the ware-like laminated paper to form the bottom. The present inventors are currently developing an automatic packaging system that allows the sterilizing solution to come into contact with all surfaces of the packaging container material, including both sides and cut surfaces.

などの異物を確実に除去し、ついで、内面部を洗浄して
清浄な状態にする必要がある。In such an automatic packaging system, before converting the cylindrical packaging container material that has passed through the sterilization tank into a bottomed cylindrical container, it first removes any sterilizing liquid, paper waste, chips, etc. that have adhered to the outer surface. It is necessary to reliably remove any foreign matter, and then wash the inner surface to make it clean.

をまねくといった重大な問題がある。However, if a sterilization/foreign matter removal section is provided in the cylindrical process of the packaging container material to remove the sterilizer and foreign matter adhering to the packaging container material, the sterilization/foreign matter removal section will be located downstream of the sterilization/foreign matter removal section. There is a serious problem that chemicals and foreign substances may flow into the system, causing secondary contamination.

ものである。Means for Solving Problem C] In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention provides a bottomed cylindrical shape made of a packaging container material made by cutting a laminated paper made by laminating a thermoplastic plastic film on paper. After filling the container with the material to be filled, the opening is sealed to complete the packaged product. In an automatic packaging system device that removes sterilizers and foreign matter adhering to materials, a first sterile air unit is formed in the sterilization/foreign matter removal section and is configured to flow sterile air in a direction opposite to the flow of packaging container materials. a second sterile air conduction path formed downstream of the sterilization/foreign material removal section and for flowing sterile air in the flow direction of the packaging container material;
A sterile air generating means for feeding sterile air into the second S bacteria air conduction path is provided to prevent sterilizers and foreign matter from flowing downstream of the sterilization/foreign matter removal section.
