[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] See also Figure 1-15 The present invention provides a technical solution: a rapid cooling device for sterilizing Chinese medicine oral liquid, comprising:

[0041] The transmission mechanism 100 includes a carrying box 101, a conveyor belt 102 and a limit bar 103, wherein the conveyor belt 102 is rotatably connected to the inside of the carrying box 101, and the limit bar 103 is fixedly connected to the carrying box 101 and is located on both sides of the conveyor belt 102; the carrying box 101 is a large whole, used to carry and connect the box body 401 and the conveyor belt 102, and the conveyor belt 102 provides a continuous and stable conveying platform to ensure that the oral liquid bottle can be smoothly moved from one place to another, and the limit bars 103 on both sides of the conveyor belt reduce the vibration and shaking of the bottle during the movement. By accurately controlling the speed and direction of the conveyor belt, it can be ensured that the oral liquid bottle is in the correct position when entering the spray box.

[0042] The trigger mechanism 200 includes a receiving groove 201 opened on the carrying box 101 and located at the oral liquid inlet, a pressing plate 202 slidably connected to the receiving groove 201, a spacer 203 fixedly connected to the central axis of the pressing plate 202, a transmission assembly 204 arranged on both sides of the pressing plate 202 and slidably connected to the carrying box 101, and a buffer assembly 205 with one end fixedly connected to the pressing plate 202 and the other end slidably connected to the receiving groove 201; the trigger mechanism 200 is a circuit switch for the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 to work. When the oral liquid bottle on the conveyor belt 1 102 enters the pressing plate 202 along the set route of the limit bar 103, in this process, the oral liquid bottle moving on the conveyor belt 1 will form a thrust on the bottle moving on the pressing plate 202, and the transmission group will transmit and guide the moving oral liquid bottle, and under the action of the limit bar 103 and the spacer 203, the oral liquid bottle will not tip over. Since the gravity of most oral liquid bottles will act on the surface of the pressing plate 202 during the movement, forming a vertical downward force on the pressing plate 202, the partition 203 on the pressing plate 202 will divide the oral liquid bottles on the pressing plate 202 into two parts evenly, so the pressing plate 202 will move vertically downward along the inner edge of the accommodating groove 201, and the sensing block 1 201a and the sensing block 2 202a will fit together, and the plug 202b on the sensing block 202a will be inserted into the socket 201b on the sensing block 1 201a, so that the circuit switch circuit of the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 is closed, and the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 start to work. The function of the buffer component 205 is that when the oral liquid bottle on the pressing plate 202 is completely moved away, the pressing plate 202 slowly returns to its original state under the action of the spring 205d. This slow process ensures that the plug 202b will be slowly removed from the socket 201b, thereby ensuring that the conveyor belt 2 304 continues to work and completes the transfer of the oral liquid bottle to the guide plate 306. Rapid mechanical movement may cause impacts to various components of the device, and the slow recovery design reduces such impacts and prolongs the service life of the pressing plate 202, the receiving groove 201 and related mechanical components. The slow and stable mechanical action helps to improve the positioning accuracy of the oral liquid bottle during the transfer process, ensures that the oral liquid bottle is accurately placed on the conveyor belt 2 304, and reduces the possibility of misalignment or accumulation.

[0043] The guide mechanism 300 includes two sets of guide turntables 301 slidably connected to the carrying box 101 and located on one side of the top of the pressing plate 202, a bridging plate 302 fixedly connected to one end of the two sets of guide turntables 301, a motor 303 fixedly connected to the other end of the guide turntables 301, a conveyor belt 2 304 arranged below the guide turntables 301 and located on the carrying box 101, with the top surface and the top surface of the conveyor belt 1 102 being on the same horizontal plane, an anti-slip plate 305 fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor belt 2 304 and located on the carrying box 101, a guide plate 306 fixedly connected to the carrying box 101, an electric telescopic rod 307 fixedly connected to one end of the guide plate 306 and located on one side of the partition 203, a baffle 307a fixedly connected to the electric telescopic rod 307, drainage holes 306a arranged on the guide plate 306 and arranged in a linear array, and a gravity sensor 308 movably connected between two adjacent guide plates 306.

[0044] When the circuit of the motor 303 is closed, the motor 303 starts to work, and the rotation of the motor 303 guides the rotation of the turntable 301. Each of the two groups of guide turntables 301 includes two guide turntables 301 connected at intervals up and down. The guide turntables 301 connected at intervals up and down respectively fix the top and bottom of the bottle body of the oral liquid bottle to prevent the oral liquid bottle from tilting due to instability during the movement, thereby preventing the occurrence of the problem of uniform spraying danger. On the one hand, by fixing the top and bottom of the bottle, it is ensured that the bottle remains upright during the transfer process, so that the oral liquid bottle moved to the guide plate 306 can be evenly covered by the coolant. On the other hand, the collision and damage caused by tilting or rolling of the bottle are reduced, and the appearance and quality of the product are protected. Moreover, due to the stable movement and positioning of the bottle, the operation of the production line is smoother, and the downtime caused by bottle accumulation or misalignment is reduced. Accurate bottle positioning allows a more compact bottle arrangement, which improves the space utilization rate in the spray box. Mechanical failures and damage caused by bottle instability are reduced, thereby reducing maintenance costs and frequency.

[0045] The second conveyor belt 304 is used to move the oral liquid bottles guided by the guide turntable 301 to the guide plate 306. The guide plate 306 limits the arrangement and movement of the oral liquid during the spraying process, effectively reducing the uneven spraying of the coolant caused by the collision or offset between the bottles. When the oral liquid bottle in the guide plate 306 moves to the top of the guide plate 306 close to the second protective curtain 406, the gravity of the oral liquid bottle will trigger the gravity sensor 308, and the gravity sensor 308 will transmit the sensed signal to the inductive telescopic rod to control the expansion and contraction of the baffle 307a, thereby controlling the number of oral liquid bottles entering the guide plate 306 later and reducing the density of the oral liquid bottles in the guide plate 306. The variable spacing adjustment function of the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle 307a enables the spray production line to make timely adjustments to the dense arrangement of the oral liquid bottles to optimize the spray cooling process. This adjustment ensures that the coolant can cover each bottle more evenly, effectively preventing product quality problems caused by excessive temperature differences. At the same time, the adaptability of the production line has been significantly improved, enabling it to flexibly cope with bottles with different arrangement densities.

[0046] The transmission assembly 204 includes a dark groove 204a which is arranged on the limit strip 103 and is symmetrical with respect to the spacer 203, a support shaft 204b with both ends fixedly connected to the dark groove 204a, and a transmission roller 204c which is slidably connected to the surface of the support shaft 204b; the dark groove 204a is used to fix the support shaft 204b and provide space for the rotation of the transmission roller 204c. When the oral liquid bottle moves along the conveyor belt 102, the transmission roller 204c contacts the oral liquid bottle and guides the movement of the oral liquid bottle to ensure that the oral liquid bottle moves stably on the path set by the limit strip 103. Through the transmission guide of the transmission roller 204c, the vibration and shaking of the bottle during the transmission process can be reduced, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire transmission process.

[0047] The buffer assembly 205 includes a connecting piece 205a fixedly connected to the surface of the pressing plate 202, a telescopic sleeve 205c fixedly connected to the receiving groove 201 and located below the connecting piece 205a, and a telescopic column 205b fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting piece 205a and sliding through the telescopic sleeve 205c; the buffer assembly 205 also includes a spring 205d fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting piece 205a at one end and passing through the telescopic column 205b at the other end and fixedly connected to the telescopic sleeve 205c, and a spring 205d fixedly connected to the telescopic sleeve 205c at the other end. The design of the anti-slip sheet 205e prevents the telescopic column 205b from popping out under the action of the spring 205d, thereby protecting the structural integrity and operational safety of the buffer assembly 205.

[0048] The surface of the receiving groove 201 is fixedly connected with a sensing block 1 201a, and a socket 201b is provided on the sensing block 1 201a. The lower surface of the pressing plate 202 facing the receiving groove 201 is fixedly connected with a sensing block 202a corresponding to the position of the sensing block 1 201a, and a plug 202b matching the socket 201b is fixedly connected to the sensing block 202a; when the weight of the oral liquid bottle is applied to the pressing plate 202, this will cause the pressing plate 202 to move downward, thereby causing the sensing block 1 201a to be tightly combined with the sensing block 202a. At this time, the plug 202b equipped on the sensing block 202a will be inserted into the socket 201b of the sensing block 1 201a, completing the circuit closure, triggering the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 to start working. The precise control of the operation of the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 is achieved, ensuring that the spraying device starts working only when the bottle position and quantity are correct. The design of the induction block improves the automation level of the device, reduces manual intervention, and improves production efficiency and safety.

[0049] The guide turntable 301 is provided with arc grooves 301a arranged in a circle, and a raised strip 301b is fixedly connected to the arc groove 301a. A drainage piece 304a is fixedly connected to the limit strip 103 located above the conveyor belt 2 304, and an elastic strip 304b is fixedly connected to the surface of the drainage piece 304a. The guide turntable 301 is provided with arc grooves 301a arranged in a circle, and a raised strip 301b is fixed to the arc groove 301a. The guide turntable 301 can effectively fix the top and bottom of the oral liquid bottle to prevent the bottle from tilting during movement. The design of the guide turntable 301 ensures the stability of the bottle during the spraying process and reduces the problem of uneven spraying of the coolant caused by the tilting of the bottle. A drainage sheet 304a is fixed on the limiting strip 103, and an elastic strip 304b is fixed on the surface of the drainage sheet 304a. The oral liquid bottles on the conveyor belt 2 304 will enter the predetermined area of ​​the guide plate 306 through the drainage of the drainage sheet 304a, so that the oral liquid bottles enter the guide plate 306 in an orderly manner. This helps to improve the uniformity of the distribution of the coolant, ensure that each bottle can be fully cooled, and improve the cooling effect and product quality.

[0050] Also includes,

[0051] The spray mechanism 400 includes a box body 401 fixedly connected to the carrying box 101, a protective plate 402 fixedly connected to the box body 401, and a top cover 403 fixedly connected to the top of the protective plate 402; the box body 401 is the main structure of the entire spray mechanism 400, and is used to carry and protect the internal spray components. The box body 401 is usually made of corrosion-resistant materials and can withstand long-term immersion and chemical erosion of the coolant. The protective plate 402 is used to protect the internal spray components to prevent external pollution and physical damage. The top cover 403 is fixed just above the protective plate 402, closing the box body 401 to prevent the coolant from splashing out and external contaminants from entering, which helps to maintain the humidity and temperature in the spray box, while protecting the spray system from the influence of the external environment.

[0052] The control mechanism 500 includes a data management box 501 movably connected to the box body 401, and an operation button 502 riveted to the data management box 501; the data management box 501 is used to store and process the control data of the spray device, and the data management box 501 allows the operator to conveniently monitor and adjust the working state of the spray device. The operation button 502 is used to manually control the start, stop and other functions of the spray device, and the operation button 502 provides an intuitive user interface, allowing the operator to easily control the spray device.

[0053] A protective curtain 404 is fixedly connected to one end of the top cover 403 near the conveyor belt 102, and a protective curtain 406 is fixedly connected to one end of the top cover 403 near the gravity sensor 308; protective curtain 404 and protective curtain 406 are used to prevent coolant from splashing onto the conveyor belt and other equipment, and protective curtain 404 and protective curtain 406 help reduce the waste of coolant and keep the production line clean.

[0054] The inner surface of the protection plate 402 is riveted with linearly arranged side nozzles 405, and the inner surface of the top cover 403 is riveted with linearly arranged upper nozzles 408 and located directly above the side nozzles 405; the side nozzles 405 are used to spray coolant from the side to the oral liquid bottle, ensuring that the coolant can evenly cover the side of the bottle and improving the cooling efficiency. The upper nozzles 408 are riveted to the inner surface of the top cover 403, arranged linearly, and located directly above the side nozzles 405, and are used to spray coolant from the top to the bottle. It helps the coolant to evenly cover the top of the bottle, and cooperates with the side nozzles 405 to achieve an all-round cooling effect for the oral liquid bottle.

[0055] The box body 401 is fixedly connected with a water inlet 407. The carrying box 101 is riveted with a support column 104, and the support column 104 is fixedly connected with an adjustment base 105. The water inlet 407 is used to transport coolant into the spray box, ensuring that the coolant can be stably supplied to the spray head and the continuous operation of the spray device. The support column 104 extends from the top side of the carrying box 101 to provide a fixing point for the adjustment base 105. The adjustment base 105 is fixedly connected to the support column 104 and can be adjusted in height and angle by rotating or sliding.

[0056] Working principle: During the implementation of the present invention, when the oral liquid bottles enter the production line, the carrying box 101, as a large integral structure, not only provides the necessary support, but also ensures the stable operation of the conveyor belt 102. The operation of the conveyor belt 102 drives the oral liquid bottles to move smoothly from one position to another, while the limit strip 103 reduces the vibration and shaking that may occur in the bottle during the movement. By precisely controlling the speed and direction of the conveyor belt, it can ensure that the oral liquid bottles are in the correct position when entering the spray box, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent cooling process. It is worth noting that Figure 3 The dotted arrow in the figure indicates the moving trajectory of the oral liquid bottle in the cooling device.

[0057] Then, the trigger mechanism 200 starts to work. When the oral liquid bottles enter the pressing plate 202 along the set route of the limit strip 103, they form a thrust on the bottles on the pressing plate 202. When the oral liquid bottles move along the conveyor belt 102, the transmission roller 204c contacts the oral liquid bottles and guides the oral liquid bottles to move, ensuring that the oral liquid bottles move forward stably on the path set by the limit strip 103. Through the transmission guidance of the transmission roller 204c, the vibration and shaking of the bottles during the transmission process can be reduced, and the stability and reliability of the entire transmission process can be improved. The limit strip 103 and the spacer 203 ensure that the bottles will not fall over. Since the gravity of most oral liquid bottles acts on the surface of the pressing plate 202, a vertical downward force is formed. The spacer 203 on the pressing plate 202 divides the bottles into two equal parts, so that the pressing plate 202 moves vertically downward along the inner edge of the receiving groove 201. This movement makes the induction block 1 201a and the induction block 2 202a fit together, and the plug 202b on the induction block 202a is inserted into the socket 201b on the induction block 1 201a, closing the circuit, triggering the motor 303- and the conveyor belt 2 304 to start working. The buffer assembly 205 is also the key to ensure the smooth operation of the spray device. When the bottle on the pressing plate 202 is completely removed, the spring 205d causes the pressing plate 202 to slowly return to its original state. This slow process helps to ensure that the plug 202b is slowly and smoothly removed from the socket 201b, thereby ensuring that the conveyor belt 2 304 continues to work. The design of the anti-slip sheet 205e prevents the telescopic column 205b from popping out under the action of the spring 205d, protecting the structural integrity and operational safety of the buffer assembly 205.

[0058] The surface of the receiving groove 201 is fixedly connected with a sensing block 1 201a, and a socket 201b is provided on the sensing block 1 201a. The pressing plate 202 is fixedly connected with a sensing block 2 202a corresponding to the position of the sensing block 1 201a on the lower surface facing the receiving groove 201, and a plug 202b matching the connection with the socket 201b is fixedly connected to the sensing block 202a. When the weight of the oral liquid bottle is applied to the pressing plate 202, this will cause the pressing plate 202 to move downward, thereby causing the sensing block 1 201a to be tightly combined with the sensing block 2 202a. At this time, the plug 202b equipped on the sensing block 2 202a will be inserted into the socket 201b of the sensing block 1 201a, completing the circuit closure, triggering the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 to start working. The precise control of the operation of the motor 303 and the conveyor belt 2 304 is achieved, ensuring that the spray device starts working only when the bottle position and quantity are correct. The design of the induction block improves the automation level of the device, reduces manual intervention, and improves production efficiency and safety.

[0059] When the circuit of the motor 303 is closed, the motor 303 starts to work, the rotation of the motor 303 guides the rotation of the turntable 301, and the rotating guide turntable 301 transfers the oral liquid bottle on the pressing plate 202 to the conveyor belt 2 304. The guide turntable 301 is provided with arc grooves 301a arranged in a circle, and the arc grooves 301a are fixedly connected with a raised strip 301b. This enables the guide turntable 301 to effectively fix the top and bottom of the oral liquid bottle to prevent the bottle from tilting during movement. The design of the guide turntable 301 ensures the stability of the bottle during the spraying process and reduces the problem of uneven spraying of the coolant caused by the tilting of the bottle. A drainage sheet 304a is fixed on the limit strip 103, and an elastic strip 304b is fixed on the surface of the drainage sheet 304a. The oral liquid bottles on the conveyor belt 2 304 will enter the predetermined area of ​​the guide plate 306 through the drainage of the drainage plate 304a, so that the oral liquid bottles can enter the guide plate 306 in an orderly manner. This helps to improve the uniformity of the distribution of the cooling liquid, ensure that each bottle can be fully cooled, and improve the cooling effect and product quality.

[0060] The guide mechanism 300 is another key component in the whole spraying device. The oral liquid bottle on the conveyor belt 2 304 is guided by the drainage sheet 304a and under the thrust of the subsequent oral liquid bottle, the oral liquid bottle will enter the guide rail formed by two guide plates 306 away from one end of the drainage sheet 304a. When the oral liquid enters the spray box composed of the protective plate 402 and the top cover 403, the oral liquid bottle begins to be sprayed. It should be noted that in the spray cooling process of the oral liquid bottle, it is crucial to ensure uniform cooling of the bottle and prevent the bottle from piling up. In order to achieve this step, the position arrangement of the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle plate 307a is specially considered in the design of the spraying device. The electric telescopic rod 307 and the group baffle plate 307a are arranged on the guide rail away from the drainage sheet 304a and close to the center. First, the function of the drainage sheet 304a is to guide the oral liquid bottle into the guide rail composed of adjacent guide plates 306 to ensure that each bottle can be fully cooled. However, if the baffle 307a is arranged at one end near the drainage sheet 304a, when the oral liquid bottle triggers the gravity sensor 308, it will hinder the smooth flow of the bottle, resulting in the accumulation of the bottle in the spray box. This accumulation will not only reduce the cooling efficiency, but also may damage the bottle or affect the quality of the oral liquid. In order to avoid this situation, the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle 307a are arranged at a position far away from the drainage sheet 304a, close to the center of the guide rail. Such a design allows the bottle to smoothly pass through the drainage sheet 304a and receive uniform cooling liquid spraying in the early stage of entering the spray box. Subsequently, when the bottle moves to the area where the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle 307a are located, these components begin to play a role and properly control and adjust the flow of the bottle.

[0061] In this way, the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle 307a can effectively prevent the accumulation of bottles while ensuring the continuity and uniformity of the cooling process. When the oral liquid bottle enters the spray box composed of the protective plate 402 and the top cover 403, the spray process officially begins. The side spray head 405 and the upper spray head 408 spray the coolant to the bottle from different angles, while the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle 307a intervene when necessary to maintain the correct arrangement and flow of the bottles. Through this position arrangement, not only the spraying efficiency is improved, but also the stability and uniformity of the oral liquid bottle during the entire cooling process are guaranteed.

[0062] When the oral liquid bottle in the guide plate 306 moves to the top of the guide plate 306 near the second protective curtain 406, the gravity of the bottle triggers the gravity sensor 308. The gravity sensor 308 transmits the sensed signal to the electric telescopic rod 307 to control the extension and contraction of the baffle 307a, thereby controlling the number of oral liquid bottles that subsequently enter the guide plate 306 and reducing the density of the oral liquid bottles in the guide plate 306. The variable spacing adjustment function of the electric telescopic rod 307 and the baffle 307a enables the spray production line to make timely adjustments to the dense arrangement of oral liquid bottles to optimize the spray cooling process. This adjustment ensures that the coolant can cover each bottle more evenly, effectively preventing product quality problems caused by excessive temperature differences. At the same time, the adaptability of the production line is significantly improved, enabling it to flexibly cope with bottles of different arrangement densities.

[0063] During the cooling process of the oral liquid bottle, the protective curtain 1 404 and the protective curtain 2 406 are used to prevent the coolant from splashing onto the conveyor belt and other equipment, which helps to reduce the waste of coolant and keep the production line clean. The inner surface of the protective plate 402 is riveted with side nozzles 405 arranged in a linear manner, and the inner surface of the top cover 403 is riveted with upper nozzles 408 arranged in a linear manner and located directly above the side nozzles 405. The side nozzles 405 are used to spray coolant onto the oral liquid bottle from the side, ensuring that the coolant can evenly cover the side of the bottle and improve the cooling efficiency. The upper nozzles 408 are riveted to the inner surface of the top cover 403, arranged in a linear manner, and located directly above the side nozzles 405, and are used to spray coolant onto the bottle from the top. This helps the coolant evenly cover the top of the bottle, and cooperates with the side nozzles 405 to achieve a full range of cooling effects on the oral liquid bottle. The water inlet 407 is used to transport the coolant into the spray box, ensuring that the coolant can be stably supplied to the spray head and ensuring the continuous operation of the spray device.
