  • Patent number: 12178216
    Abstract: A filling and portioning system for food products and a method for rotational speed control of a feeder and/or mixing arm and/or counterholding device present thereon for conveying the food product in a filling hopper are described. According thereto, the feeder/mixing arm in the filling hopper can be rotated about itself by way of a motor for conveying the food product and is driven independently of a downstream conveyor mechanism. The counterholding device is also arranged in the filling hopper and can optionally be rotated about itself by way of a motor for conveying the food product and is driven independently of a downstream conveyor mechanism. The rotational speed of at least one of the motors is controlled in an automated manner in dependence of at least one machine or product parameter measured during operation of the filling and portioning system.

  • Patent number: 10704785
    Abstract: The invention proposes a method for the flame signal detection by means of an ionization electrode (15) protruding into a combustion zone of a burner, comprising the steps: detecting a first signal, which is dependent on an ionization current flowing off the ionization electrode (15), generating a second signal which has a predetermined periodic course, generating a third signal by adding the first signal and the second signal, comparing the third signal with a first threshold value and generating a fourth signal on the basis of the comparison of the third signal with the first threshold value, comparing the third signal with a second threshold value different from the first threshold value and generating a fourth signal on the basis of the comparison of the third signal with the second threshold value, and determining an operating variable of the burner on the basis of at least one of the fourth signal and the fifth signal.

  • Patent number: 10605458
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling a heating unit comprising a burner (1) with a burner housing (2), an ionization electrode (7) associated with the burner (1), and a voltage supply (8) for applying an alternating voltage between the ionization electrode (7) and the burner housing (2), said method comprising the method steps: applying an alternating voltage between the ionization electrode (7) and the burner housing (2) by means of the voltage supply (8) and correcting the output of the voltage supply (8) in the event of parasitic leakage flows. The object of the present invention is in particular to improve the reliability when ascertaining the air-fuel ratio via the ionization current.
