Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of beverage production, and in particular to a milk bottle cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Milk is rich in nutrients such as protein, fat, vitamins and minerals. Milk protein contains essential amino acids for the human body, and milk fat is mostly short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids, which are easily absorbed by the human body. In addition, minerals such as potassium, phosphorus and calcium are reasonably proportioned and easily absorbed by the human body. Therefore, milk and milk-containing beverages are very popular. Glass bottles are traditional packaging materials for liquid milk and can be used as packaging for home delivery channels sold by dairy manufacturers in nearby cities. Glass bottle packaging has a good barrier effect, which can prevent the contamination of milk by external air and prevent the diffusion of milk flavor substances.

[0003] However, due to the particularity of the home delivery channel for urban sales, milk bottles cannot be recycled and cleaned in time. The residual milk in the milk bottles is very easy to coagulate into blocks and stably adhere to the inner wall of the milk bottles. Since the coagulated milk is very viscous, it needs to be soaked for a long time before machine cleaning, which is difficult and inefficient to clean. Or the coagulated milk is soaked before cleaning, and then manually shoveled by the staff, which increases the workload, and the cleaning process is easy to scratch the staff due to damage to the milk bottles.

[0040] In order to better explain the present invention and facilitate understanding, the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments. Figure 2 The orientation is used as a reference.

[0041] Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a clearer and more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0042] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention provides a milk bottle cleaning device, which includes a water-powered driving mechanism 1 and a first brush mechanism 2. The first brush mechanism 2 is inserted into the milk bottle to effectively clean the stubborn milk blocks condensed on the inner wall of the milk bottle. The first brush mechanism 2 includes a main shaft 20 and a plurality of first brush rods 21. The main shaft 20 is connected to the water-powered driving mechanism 1 to realize the transmission of power. The main shaft 20 is driven to rotate by the water-powered driving mechanism 1. There is no need to set an electric energy driving mechanism. The water-powered driving mechanism 1 is connected to a high-pressure water pipe to drive the first brush mechanism 2 to rotate. The structure is simple and the installation is convenient. The problems of leakage and poor durability of electric energy driving are avoided. The plurality of first brush rods 21 are all arranged on the main shaft 20. The main shaft 20 drives the first brush rod 21 to rotate, and then the first brush rod 21 performs high-speed scrubbing on the inner wall of the milk bottle to scrape off the milk condensed into blocks, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, the main shaft 20 and the first brush rod 21 are both hollow structures with one end open. The open end of the main shaft 20 is connected to the water drive mechanism 1 , and the open end of the first brush rod 21 is connected to the cavity of the main shaft 20 . In addition, a plurality of first through holes 22 are provided on the first brush rod 21. Water flows through the water-powered driving mechanism 1, works on the water-powered driving mechanism 1, drives the water-powered driving mechanism 1 to rotate, and controls the rotation speed of the water-powered driving mechanism 1 by controlling the water pressure. The water flowing through the water-powered driving mechanism 1 flows through the cavities of the main shaft 20 and the first brush rod 21 in turn, and then flows out of the first brush rod 21 through the first through hole 22, so that while the first brush rod 21 brushes the inner wall of the milk bottle, water flows out from the first through hole 22, and travels as a high-speed jet, and changes the jet direction in real time with the movement of the first brush rod 21, and accurately washes the current brushing position of the first brush rod 21, further improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect, and effectively saving the amount of water. In addition, while the water flows drive the first brush rod 21 to rotate, it can also wash the inner wall of the milk bottle, realizing the secondary use of water. The first brush rod 21 cooperates with the high-speed jet, which ensures the cleaning effect and efficiency while avoiding the disadvantages of manual cleaning.

[0043] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the water-powered driving mechanism 1 includes a body 11, a runner 12 and a driving shaft 13. A first accommodating space 14 and a second accommodating space 15 are provided in the body 11, and the runner 12 is rotatably provided in the first accommodating space 14 through a bearing. The second accommodating space 15 is located below the runner 12, and the driving shaft 13 is rotatably provided in the second accommodating space 15. The first end of the driving shaft 13 is connected to the runner 12, and the water flow impacts the runner 12 to drive the runner 12 to rotate, thereby driving the driving shaft 13 to rotate. The second end of the driving shaft 13 is connected to the open end of the main shaft 20, and the main shaft 20 is driven to rotate through the driving shaft 13. A plurality of water supply channels 16 connected to the first accommodating space 14 are provided on the body 11, and the plurality of water supply channels 16 are all connected to the water supply equipment.

[0044] Preferably, a threaded hole 17 is provided at the top of the body 11, so as to facilitate the quick installation of the water-powered driving mechanism 1 on the water supply pipe. Multiple water supply channels 16 are connected to the threaded hole 17, and multiple water supply channels 16 are evenly arranged in a spiral shape, which improves the efficiency of water flow impacting the runner 12. In addition, the second accommodating space 15 adopts a variable diameter pipe, and the top opening of the second accommodating space 15 adopts a gradually expanding pipe, and the inner diameter of the middle part is larger than the inner diameter of the top opening, which reduces the cavitation of the runner 12 and improves durability; the bottom opening of the second accommodating space 15 adopts a gradually converging pipe, which increases the flow velocity entering the main shaft 20 and improves the effect of high-speed jet.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the first brush mechanism 2 also includes a connecting cap 23, on which a mounting hole 24 is provided, and the mounting hole 24 is threadedly connected to the lower end of the body 11, and the open end of the main shaft 20 is rotatably connected to the mounting hole 24 through a bearing, so as to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the first brush mechanism 2. Further, a fixing ring 25 is provided in the open end of the main shaft 20, and the fixing ring 25 is connected to the inner wall of the main shaft 20 through a plurality of radially arranged spokes 26, and the drive shaft 13 is detachably connected to the fixing ring 25. While the main shaft 20 and the drive shaft 13 realize power transmission, the water in the second accommodating space 15 enters the cavity of the main shaft 20 through the gap between the fixing ring 25 and the inner wall of the main shaft 20. The spokes 26 can be configured as an impeller to pressurize the water in the second accommodating space 15 and transport it to the cavity of the main shaft 20, so as to further increase the jet flow rate of the first brush rod 21. Specifically, the lower end of the drive shaft 13 is machined with a plane or groove for limiting, and the inner wall of the fixing ring 25 is provided with a plane or protrusion matching the lower end of the drive shaft 13. When installing the connecting cap 23, first insert the lower end of the drive shaft 13 into the fixing ring 25, dock the drive shaft 13 and the fixing ring 25 according to the limiting requirements, and then tighten the connecting cap 23.

[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, the bottle cleaning device also includes a second brush mechanism 3, which is arranged on the water-powered driving mechanism 1, and is a fixed structure. The second brush mechanism 3 is sleeved outside the cleaning bottle and is used to clean the outer wall of the bottle. It should be noted that when it is necessary to clean the outer wall and the inner wall of the bottle at the same time, other power needs to be provided to drive the bottle to rotate, and the direction of rotation of the bottle is opposite to the direction of rotation of the first brush mechanism 2; or, the friction between the second brush mechanism 3 and the bottle is less than the friction between the first brush mechanism 2 and the bottle, the bottle is arranged on a rotatable platform, and the friction between the first brush mechanism 2 and the inner wall of the bottle is used to drive the bottle to rotate. Since there is friction between the bottle and the second brush mechanism 3, the rotation speed of the bottle is lower than the rotation speed of the first brush mechanism 2, that is, the cleaning of the inner wall is achieved, and the outer wall can be cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0047] See also Figure 5 The second brush mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame 30, a plurality of mounting arms 31 and a plurality of second brush rods 32. The mounting frame 30 is detachably mounted on the body 11 of the water-powered driving mechanism 1, preferably threadedly connected, and the tightening direction is the same as the rotation direction of the milk bottle. The first ends of the plurality of mounting arms 31 are evenly connected to the mounting frame 30, and each mounting arm 31 is provided with a plurality of second brush rods 32, which are arranged opposite to the first brush rod 21. The side wall of the milk bottle is clamped by the first brush rod 21 and the second brush rod 32 to scrub the milk bottle.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, the mounting arm 31 and the second brush rod 32 are both hollow structures with one end open. A plurality of third through holes are provided on the side wall of the body 11, and the third through holes are connected to the second accommodating space 15. An annular hole is provided on the mounting frame 30, and the plurality of third through holes are evenly connected to the annular hole. The open end of the mounting arm 31 is connected to the annular hole, and the open end of the second brush rod 32 is connected to the cavity of the mounting arm 31. A plurality of second through holes 33 are provided on the second brush rod 32. Water in the second accommodating space 15 enters the annular hole through the third through holes, and is distributed to each mounting arm 31 through the annular hole, flows through the cavity of the mounting arm 31 and the second brush rod 32 in sequence, and then flows out of the second brush rod 32 through the second through holes 33. The water flow direction changes in real time with the movement of the second brush rod 32, and the current brushing position of the second brush rod 32 is accurately rinsed, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect, and effectively saving water.

[0049] See also Figure 6 The distance between the mounting arm 31 and the main shaft 20 can be changed by replacing the second brush mechanism 3, so as to match milk bottles with different inner diameters.

[0050] Preferably, the first brush rod 21 and the second brush rod 32 are flexible structures, which facilitates the insertion of the first brush mechanism 2 into a milk bottle with a small bottle mouth. When brushing milk, the hardness of the first brush rod 21 and the second brush rod 32 is increased by injecting water into the first brush rod 21 and the second brush rod 32, thereby improving the effect and efficiency of brushing, especially the first brush rod 21. Increasing the hardness can improve the efficiency of scraping off the coagulated milk. In addition, the cross section of the first brush rod 21 is a five-pointed star, and the edges and corners on the first brush rod 21 can further improve the efficiency of scraping off the coagulated milk.
