Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device and a method for establishing a geometry of a container for packaging a flowable medium, wherein a radiation apparatus for generating and emitting at least electromagnetic radiation from a radiation source of the radiation apparatus to a radiation sink of the radiation apparatus along a detection region is activated in order subsequently to rotate and/or swivel the container about an axis of rotation by means of a movement apparatus, wherein, at least from time to time during a rotational movement of the container, at least one container region is moved through at least one portion of the detection region. Then, a detection apparatus is used to detect a passage time of the container region through the detection region, which passage time is evaluated by means of an evaluation apparatus for establishing an external geometry of the container.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for the particularly automated measurement of a closing angle of a lid (110) of a container (100) particularly a bottle lid (110) with a screw thread (120) comprising the following steps: a) Positioning of the container (100) and determining of a starting position, b) Turning of the lid (110) from a closing position (I) into the direction of an open position (II) of the lid (110), c) Detection of an open position (II) of the lid (110) and a corresponding open position angle β, d) Calculation of the closing angle α of the lid (110) on the basis of the open position angle β and particularly, a lid parameter.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device and a method for determining at least one physical, chemical and/or biological characteristic of a liquid medium that has been introduced into a sealable container, said device comprising at least: one measuring head system comprising at least one pressure measuring unit for measuring the pressure of a gaseous medium and/or of the liquid medium present in the container and a temperature measuring unit for measuring the temperature of the gaseous medium and/or of the liquid medium; one movement system, at least for moving the container; and one determination system, at least for determining the physical, chemical and/or biological characteristic of the liquid medium from at least one of the individual values relating to the measured pressure and the measured temperature of the medium.
