    摘要: A beverage packaging apparatus comprises a Refrigeration Assembly that keeps the beverage cold all the way to the fill head. The Refrigeration Assembly also allows manufacturers to fill off smaller beverage containers like kegs or larger storage tanks. The apparatus includes an integrated Container Loading Chute, and a Container Depalletizer having a scoop to depalletize containers. The Container Depalletizer integrates with the Container Loading Chute to provide for seamless flow for the Fill Head Assemblies and Seaming Assembly. The apparatus includes a unique integrated UV-C Sanitizing Station. The apparatus includes a conveyor with three fill head assemblies automated by smooth pneumatic actuation. Each fill head assembly has an integrated flow meter to provide precise fluid control. The apparatus includes a single pneumatic, rotary rack and pinion actuation that provides highly repeatable sealing of the container in a very small footprint without requiring sophisticated software to control the seaming operation. Finally, the apparatus includes rinse and dry assembly for the container and an innovative, integrated Accumulation Assembly to hold the completed beverage containers or packages.

    摘要: A sealer for sealing a container includes a working space, the container capable of being sealed with a lid from a plurality of lids in - the working space, a housing surrounding the working space, and a lid supply configured to supply the plurality of the lids in a lid stack to the working space. The lid supply includes a. first section which is arranged in the working space in such a way that the first section is surrounded by the housing, and a second section arranged outside the housing, and the lid supply comprising a seal arranged between the first section and the second section in such a way that the first section is capable of being sealed off from the second section.

    摘要: An electron exit window foil for an electron beam emitter having an electron beam generator and operating in a corrosive environment. The electron exit window foil has a sandwich structure with an outer side arranged to face the corrosive environment and an inner side arranged to face the electron beam generator. The sandwich structure comprises, as seen from the outer side to the inner side, a protective layer, for protecting the sandwich structure from the corrosive environment, a supporting layer made of Ti, for providing structural support for the sandwich structure, and a thermally conductive layer made of Al, for conveying heat from the sandwich structure.

    摘要: A method of forming individual tubes or sachets containing fluent material, and a packaging machine for doing so, are described. The side of the foil which will be in contact with the fluent material when the package is formed is exposed to plasma mist or aerosol form as the tube or sachet is formed from a strip of laminate material (1), which is folded about a former (2) into a closed tube or sachet which passes over the open end of a dispensing tube (3) from which the fluent material is dispensed. A mist of plasma is injected into the interior of the material tube as it is formed, extracted from the area once it has passed over the interior walls of the laminate tube. The dispensing tube may be surrounded by a cylindrical pipe (6) having an open end adjacent the dispensing tube and providing a tapered or stepped construction to a forming tube (2) about which the laminate is folded, enabling the mist to flow out of the open end of the pipe surrounding the dispensing tube (3) and then to reverse direction and flow past the laminate surface as the tube or sachet is formed and thus sterilise that surface before it comes into contact with the product in question.
