ABSTRACT:
A sanitizing method and a sanitizer system to be attached to a conventional circular bottle filling machine as used for filling beverage bottles, the system including a plurality of collector manifolds, each manifold being adapted to collect sanitizing liquid from a plurality of adjacent filler valves, there being a sufficient number of manifolds with plural valve engaging tubes to accommodate every filler valve of a particular machine; the manifolds are connectable by flexible hoses to a rotating collector which is preferably permanently installed at the top of the bottle filler machine so that the entry ports of the collector rotate with the rotating conveyor table of the machine and the exit port of the collector is from a stationary portion thereof. There is a provision for passage of carbon dioxide gas through the center of the collector in cases where the bottle filler machine employs an overhead supply conduit for carbon dioxide to maintain carbonation in the beverage in the filler bowl. Jacks are provided for the manifolds to hold them firmly up against the seals of the filler valves. Hoses are connectable to the manifolds by quick connect fittings and the rotating table is provided with retainers to hold the ends of the hoses while the sanitizer system is not in use and the machine is being used in a normal filling operation. The manifolds are completely removable and there is no modification required to the filler valves or other parts of the machine which might interfere with the normal filling operation.
