  • Patent number: 11066197
    Abstract: Embodiments of a cell traverse for an aseptic region of a filling machine for filling packages with flowable products are provided. The cell traverse includes a frame structure with at least one first lateral longitudinal structure, at least one second lateral longitudinal structure opposite the first longitudinal structure, and a plurality of transverse elements arranged between the first and second longitudinal structures and connecting the longitudinal structures. Between the longitudinal structures and the transverse elements there are a plurality of cells of the cell traverse for receiving packages to be filled. At least some of the transverse elements are connected exclusively in an form-fit and/or force-fit manner to the longitudinal structures.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11001402
    Abstract: Embodiments of a cell traverse for an aseptic region of a filling machine for filling packages with flowable products are provided. The cell traverse includes a frame structure with a first lateral longitudinal structure and a second lateral longitudinal structure opposite the first longitudinal structure. Also included are a plurality of transverse elements arranged between the first and second longitudinal structures and connecting the longitudinal structures. Between the longitudinal structures and the transverse elements a plurality of cells of the cell traverse are formed for receiving packages to be filled. The cell traverse also includes insert elements, which each have the frame structure, in particular at least one longitudinal structure and/or at least one transverse element, and at least some of the insert elements are detachably connected to the frame structure of the cell traverse.

  • Publication number: 20200002040
    Abstract: Packaging machine, in particular filling device, having at least one transport rail, and at least two transport slides movable along the transport rail and arranged on the transport rail, the transport slides being arranged for transporting at least one package and being moved clocked along a productive region of the transport rail. A processing becomes more flexible if the transport rail and the transport slides are so electromotively connected that the transport slides are moved along a productive area with two indices different from each other.
