Abstract:
An apparatus for treating plastic containers includes a transport device which transports the plastic containers along a predetermined transport path, a blow module which has a blow molding machine for shaping plastic preforms into plastic containers, and a filler module which has a filling device for filling plastic containers with an, in particular, liquid product. The blow module and the filler module are arranged directly adjacent to one another, wherein the blow module has a transport starwheel on the outlet side, which transport starwheel is designed as a pitch varying starwheel and the plastic containers can be transferred directly from the pitch varying starwheel of the blow module to the filler module.
Abstract:
Apparatus for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers has a transport device having a rotatable transport carrier on which a large number of forming stations are arranged. The forming stations each have blow molding devices, within which the plastic preforms can be formed into the plastic containers by applying a flowable medium, and the forming stations each have application devices for applying the flowable medium to the plastic preforms. The apparatus has a clean room within which the plastic preforms are expanded to form the plastic containers, and such clean room is delimited from a non-sterile environment by at least one wall. The apparatus also has an exchange device for exchanging blow molding devices.
Abstract:
Apparatus for treating containers has a transport device which transports the containers at least in sections along a predetermined transport path, and a plurality of treatment devices which treat the containers at least at times during transport along the transport path, wherein the apparatus has a clean room which clean room is delimited from an environment by at least one wall, and furthermore at least one sealing device is provided for sealing off the clean room from its environment, wherein this sealing device has at least two elements and/or walls which can be moved with respect to one another wherein, the clean room is formed between a floor unit and a ceiling unit and at least the floor unit or the ceiling unit is formed as a load-bearing unit and support elements are arranged within the clean room for supporting the ceiling unit and/or the floor unit.
Abstract:
Apparatus for treating plastic preforms, having a heating device for heating the plastic preforms, having forming devices for forming the plastic preforms into plastic containers, and having a sterilization device for sterilizing the plastic preforms, wherein the sterilization device has at least one first sterilization unit which has a rotatable transport carrier and a plurality of holding devices arranged on this transport carrier for holding the plastic preforms, as well as a plurality of first application devices for acting upon the plastic preforms, and the sterilization device has a second sterilization unit.
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing plastic containers is provided, comprising a heating device that heats plastic preforms, and including a shaping device provided downstream of this heating device in the transport direction of the plastic preforms, which shaping device shapes the plastic preforms into the plastic containers, wherein a tempering device for tempering the plastic preforms heated by the heating device is provided in the transport direction of the plastic preforms between the heating device and the shaping device, which tempering device has at least one tempering unit provided on a carrier rotatable about a predetermined rotary axis, and which tempering unit has at least two contacting devices, between which at least one section of the plastic preform can be received, which contacting devices can be moved in relation to one another along a predetermined direction.
Abstract:
An apparatus (1) for the shaping of plastics material pre-forms (10) into plastics material containers (20), with a movable carrier (2) on which are arranged a plurality of shaping stations (40), wherein these shaping stations (40) form in each case cavities in which the plastics material pre-forms (10) are capable of being expanded into the plastics material containers with a flowable medium, and wherein the shaping stations (40) have in each case stressing devices (42) which act upon the plastics material pre-forms (10) with the flowable medium, as well as stretch rods (8) which are capable of being introduced into an internal space of the plastics material pre-forms (10) in order to stretch the aforesaid plastics material pre-forms (10) in the longitudinal direction (L) thereof, and wherein the apparatus has at least one drive arrangement (30) in order to move the stressing devices (42) relative to the plastics material pre-form (10). According to the invention the drive arrangement (30) has at least one first valve device (34), wherein a change in a switching state of this valve device (34) triggers the removal movement of the stressing device (42) and the shaping station (40) has a safety means (36, 54, 56, 46) which even in the event of failure of an element of the first drive arrangement (30) effects or releases the removal of the stressing devices (42) from the plastics material pre-form in a manner dependent upon a pressure prevailing in the container at a pre-determined moment in time, in that a change in the switching state of the valve device (34) is constrained and/or avoided.
