    摘要: A dual-stream filling system is used in a packaging machine to introduce at least two flowable materials into a plastic bottle. The dual-stream filling system defines a material flow path therethrough. The system includes a primary filling tube having an inlet end and a discharge end and defining a primary filling tube internal flow region. A secondary filling tube has an inlet end and an outlet end and defines a secondary filling tube internal flow region. The secondary filling tube is positioned at least in part within the primary filling tube internal flow region, penetrating the primary filling tube through the first opening. The dual-stream fill system includes a valve plug that includes a portion that is movable relative to the secondary filling tube between an opened state wherein flow communication is established between the internal flow regions of the primary and secondary filling tubes and a closed state wherein flow communication is terminated between the internal flow regions of the primary and secondary filling tubes. An actuator is provided for moving the valve plug portion between the opened and closed positions. The actuator is disposed fully external of the secondary filling tube flow region.

    摘要: An apparatus for internally venting a product tank in a packaging machine is set forth. The apparatus includes a filling tube having a first end extending from a first opening of the product tank. The apparatus further includes an air collection mechanism having a filling tube opening adapted to receive a second end of the filling tube. The air collection mechanism extends below the second end of the filling tube. A vent pipe is connected to a second opening of the product tank and to a vent pipe opening in the air collection mechanism. The filling tube and the vent pipe are separately connected to both the product tank and the air collection mechanism. Air pressure, arising from operating the packaging machine, directs air from the air collection mechanism through the vent pipe and into the product tank. Such air proceeds through the vent pipe and replaces product in the product tank as the product is dispersed into the carton during filling.

    摘要: A cleaning box for a liquid food product filling apparatus includes a mounting member from which the plurality of filling tubes depend, and a hollow, shroud-like elliptical cylindrical body extending from the mounting member. The cleaning box is configured to, in part, shroud the filling tubes. The elliptical cylindrical body has a longitudinal axis, and is mounted to the mounting member so as to define an elliptical juncture therebetween. The elliptical cylindrical body terminates at about a free end of the filling tubes so as to define an opening. The opening is formed at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis so as to define a circular end profile. The opening is further formed such that the filling tubes are visually perceptible from a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

    摘要: The fill system provides sterile air to the product tank and the cleaning box which creates a more hygienic environment for the forming, filling and sealing of cartons on a packaging machine. The fill system has a pair of offset reducers for facilitated positioning of the fill pipes in relation to each other. The fill system also has a tank atmospheric valve for maintaining the proper pressure in the product tank. The fill system also has a level probe for measuring the level of product in the product tank during a production cycle, and to measure the level of cleaning solution in the product tank during a cleaning cycle.

    摘要: A method and a system for determining an altitude of an object of interest, for example, an airplane that transmits electromagnetic radiation in the form of radar signals. A number of sub-units that can detect the radar signals are spread out in an area, preferably in a large geographical area, where the radar signals of the airplane/object it is possible to detect. The sub-units communicate to the information center when they are able to detect the radar signals. The information center determines the altitude of the airplane based on the airplanes line of sight, i.e., its radar horizon, and thus which sub-units can detect the radar signals.
