Patent number: 11180357Abstract: To reduce an amount of use of a replacement gas used for replacing air in a container. A gas replacement system includes: a washing machine that washes the container with water; a filling machine that fills the container with a content fluid; a sealing machine that seals the container transferred from the filling machine; a chamber that covers the filling machine and the sealing machine, and contains a replacement gas; and a water discharge mechanism (washing machine) that discharges the water in the container having been carried into the chamber while containing the water out of the container in the chamber. The water in the container is replaced with an ambient gas in the chamber along with the discharge of the water.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2016Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignees: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES MACHINERY SYSTEMS, LTD., TOYO SEIKAN CO., LTD.Inventors: Hidehiko Yuse, Kazuyuki Kurosawa, Yukio Takada, Shinji Ishikura, Norio Inukai, Katsumi Sembon

Patent number: 10987719Abstract: A can filling/seaming device that fills a can with a liquid content and seals the can with a lid by double-seaming allows a filler and a seamer to be integrated in a compact arrangement. A can filling/seaming device includes a filler that fills a can with a liquid content while conveying the can by rotation of a filling turret, a seamer that attaches a lid to the can filled with the content by double-seaming, and a forwarding turret provided between a carrying-out position of the filling turret and a carrying-in position to the seamer to circularly convey the can filled with the content, wherein a lid supply part is provided on the forwarding turret.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2015Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: TOYO SEIKAN CO., LTD.Inventors: Kazuyuki Kurosawa, Hidehiko Yuse

Patent number: 10981681Abstract: A filling device with a filling failure is identified less costly, and the filling amount by the filling device is adjusted quickly. The filling/sealing device includes a filler including a filling turret having a plurality of holding parts and a filling device provided for each of the holding parts to fill a container with a liquid content, forwarding turrets that hold and turret-convey a container transported from the filling turret, a sealing device that seals the container transported from the forwarding turrets with a lid, an inspection device provided in the path, in which the container is held and turret-conveyed, to inspect a filling amount in the container, and a controller that identifies a filling device with a filling failure on the basis of an inspection result from the inspection device and controls the filling amount by the filling device.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2015Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignees: TOYO SEIKAN CO., LTD., MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES MACHINERY SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Kazuyuki Kurosawa, Hidehiko Yuse, Shinichi Hizume, Shinji Ishikura

Patent number: 10941029Abstract: There is provided a filling-and-sealing device and a filling-and-sealing method capable of reducing an amount of use of a replacement gas used for replacing air in a container. The filling-and-sealing device includes a filling machine that fills a container with a content fluid; a sealing machine that seals the container transferred from the filling machine with a lid; a chamber that covers the filling machine and the sealing machine; a gassing system that replaces, in the chamber, a gas in the container with a carbon dioxide gas by introducing the carbon dioxide gas as a second replacement gas supplied from a tank; and a pre-gassing system that replaces the gas in the container with a first replacement gas that remains in the chamber containing the carbon dioxide gas before processing by the gassing system.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2016Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignees: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES MACHINERY SYSTEMS, LTD., TOYO SEIKAN CO., LTD.Inventors: Hidehiko Yuse, Kazuyuki Kurosawa, Yukio Takada, Shinji Ishikura, Norio Inukai, Katsumi Sembon
