During the rotation of the rotating table 4, the fine-tuning drive structure in the multiple groups of notches opened on its surface and the uniform rotation structure 3 begins The fine-tuning drive structure monitors the position of the bottle in real time through the sensor. When the bottle position is found to be deviated, the fine-tuning drive structure is started to accurately adjust the conveying position of the bottle inside the rotating table 4 to ensure that the bottle is in the best position during the subsequent cleaning process. When the bottle rotates to the position of the cleaning processing component 5 with the rotating table 4, the cleaning process officially starts, so that the telescopic injector 52 moves downward under the drive of the lifting guide rod 53, so that the bottle mouth positioning and calibration clamping member 592 is close to the bottle, so that the pushing cylinder 590 works, and the bottle mouth positioning and calibration clamping member 592 is driven by the rotating ring member 591 to accurately find the bottle mouth position and calibrate and clamp it to ensure the stability of the bottle during the cleaning process. Then, the telescopic injector 52 injects the liquid containing liquid into the bottle. When the magnetorheological fluid cleaning liquid is injected, the driving motor 593 is started, driving the driving gear 594 to rotate, and then the rotating gear 595 is rotated to realize the rotation of the damping wheel 55. The rotation of the damping wheel 55 drives the rotating ring 56 to rotate. The laser position sensor on the rotating ring 56 monitors the shape and position information inside the bottle in real time, and the magnetic field strength detection sensor 57 monitors the change of the magnetic field strength of the magnetorheological fluid. As the rotating ring 56 rotates, the four groups of magnetic field generators 58 inside it generate magnetic fields of different strengths and directions, which act on the magnetorheological fluid in the bottle. Under the action of the magnetic field, the rheological properties of the magnetorheological fluid change, which can better fit the inner wall of the bottle, and the inside of the bottle is cleaned in all directions without dead ends. After the cleaning is completed,The bottle continues to rotate with the rotating table 4, and passes through the first carrier 6, the second carrier 7 and the third carrier 8 in sequence, and the cleaned bottle is further processed, which can make the cleaning liquid better adapt to the complex shape inside the bottle and penetrate into the parts that are difficult to reach by traditional cleaning methods, greatly improving the cleaning effect, ensuring the quality and safety of subsequent beverages, reducing the problem of incomplete cleaning caused by bottle position deviation, and improving the consistency and stability of cleaning. Then, when the bottle rotates with the rotating table 4 to between the support frame 51 and the first carrier 6, the position detection sensor 9 detects the bottle in place signal. At this time, the clamping and rotating structure 11 is started, accurately clamps the bottle body and drives it to rotate, so that the waste liquid after cleaning in the bottle is poured into the filtering and purifying structure 10. The filtering and purifying structure 10 filters and purifies the waste liquid to remove impurities and pollutants therein. Under the regulation of the control connecting valve end 12, a part of the filtered and purified liquid is guided into the telescopic injector 52 under the action of the injection pump body 13 to realize the recycling of the magnetorheological fluid, and the other part can be controlled by the connecting valve end 12 as needed. It is connected to the external cleaning liquid pump box for further processing or discharge, and then the bottle is rotated with the rotating table 4 to the first carrier rack 6 position. At this time, the position detection sensor 9 detects that the bottle has reached the preset position, and the circular rotation drive member 16 is started, driving the electromagnetic telescopic guide rod 17 to do circular motion. At the same time, the electromagnetic telescopic guide rod 17 is telescopically adjusted according to the bottle position information fed back by the sensor, and the ultrasonic generator 18 is accurately aligned with the outside of the bottle through the adjustment arm. The adsorption lifting rod also starts to work, and the electric lifting rod drives the adsorption head to penetrate into the bottle body. After the adsorption head adsorbs the bottom end of the bottle body, the position of the bottle body is driven to rise, so that the bottle is in a position that is more conducive to ultrasonic cleaning. The ultrasonic generator 18 emits ultrasonic waves to further deeply clean the outside of the bottle and the bottleneck of the bottle to remove residual fine stains. After ultrasonic cleaning, the bottle continues to rotate with the rotating table 4 to the second carrier rack 7 position. When the position detection sensor After 9 detects that the bottle is in place, the calibration electric telescopic rod 14 is started, and the length is adjusted according to the bottle position and size information fed back by the sensor, and the microwave drying rotating head 15 is accurately sent to the bottle mouth position. The microwave drying rotating head 15 emits microwaves while rotating to dry the inside of the bottle to ensure that the inside of the bottle is dry and avoid residual moisture affecting the subsequent beverage filling. The dried bottle rotates to the position of the third carrier rack 8, and the detection structure at the side end of the third carrier rack 8 begins to optically comprehensively detect the cleanliness of the bottle body after cleaning. The cleanliness of the inner and outer walls of the bottle. When the detection is qualified, the bottle is transported out of the cleaning machine through the discharge guide structure. When the detection is unqualified, the bottle can be marked by the control system and transported to a specific position for secondary cleaning or other treatment. During the entire cleaning process, the position detection sensor 9 on the side of the support rack 51, the first carrier rack 6, the second carrier rack 7 and the third carrier rack 8 monitors the position of the bottle in real time.Providing accurate position information for the movements of each component ensures the smooth progress of the entire cleaning process, reduces problems such as incomplete cleaning and uneven drying caused by bottle position deviation, and further improves the consistency and stability of cleaning and drying.
