Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to an apparatus for the control of a pasteurizing process, designed to be applied to the middle area of a pasteurizer, located downstream of a heating area from which bottles (1) of product carried by a conveyor (2) come, and upstream of a bottle cooling area. In said middle area of the pasteurizer, provision is made for four tanks (7, 8, 9, 10) containing water at differentiated temperatures which feed an equal number of sprayers (3, 4, 5, 6) located above the bottles (1) in movement. The two middle tanks (8, 9) are each divided into two chambers (12, 13; 24, 25) separated by an upright partition (11; 23). In the event that the conveyor (2) should undergo an emergency stop, the bottles (1) that at the moment are in the area having the highest temperature are automatically sprayed with water at a lower temperature coming from the corresponding tanks whereas the high temperature is maintained in the tanks having the highest temperature until the emergency state is over. For the purpose pipelines (15, 21, 27, 33) are provided which suitably connect the various tanks (7, 8, 9, 10) to one another and to the sprayers (3, 4, 5, 6) located above the bottles (1).
