DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of use of the present invention.

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a medicine bottle cleaning and drying machine, including a machine body 1 and a mesh belt conveyor 2. A cleaning mechanism 4 and a drying mechanism 3 are arranged on the machine body 1 in sequence horizontally along the feeding direction, facing the medicine bottles on the mesh conveyor below. A water collecting tank 5 is arranged below the mesh belt conveyor 2. The cleaning mechanism 4 includes a clean water flushing component 41 and a purified water flushing component 42. The clean water flushing component 41 is arranged in front of the purified water flushing component 42; the water outlet below the water collecting tank 5 is connected to the water inlet of the high-pressure circulating water pump through the filtering component, and the water outlet of the high-pressure circulating water pump is connected to the clean water flushing component 41. An overflow port 51 is opened on the upper part of the water collecting tank 5 to prevent the water level in the water collecting tank 5 from being too high. The filtering component can adopt the existing wastewater filter commonly used on the market.

[0021] The water washed and dried by the washing mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3 is collected in the water collection pool 5 through the mesh belt conveyor 2, and the water in the water collection pool 5 is filtered by the filter component and then resupplied to the clean water washing component 41 by the high-pressure circulating water pump, so as to complete the continuous recycling of the washing water, thereby effectively improving the utilization rate of water resources and being more energy-saving and environmentally friendly. The purified water washing component 42 is connected to an external high-pressure purified water source, and the medicine bottle is washed with clean water and then high-pressure purified water for high-pressure washing, which can ensure the washing quality of the medicine bottle.

[0022] The clean water flushing component 41 includes a plurality of clean water nozzles 410 connected to a high-pressure clean water source, and the clean water nozzles 410 are arranged horizontally perpendicular to the feeding direction of the mesh belt conveyor 2 to form a clean water high-pressure flushing water curtain, which can effectively clean the medicine bottles conveyed on the mesh belt conveyor 2. The purified water flushing component 42 includes a plurality of purified water nozzles 420 connected to an external high-pressure purified water source, and the purified water nozzles 420 are arranged horizontally perpendicular to the feeding direction of the mesh belt conveyor 2 to form a high-pressure purified water curtain, and the medicine bottles washed with clean water are further rinsed with purified water.

[0023] The drying mechanism 3 includes a horizontally mounted high-pressure pulse rotating wind assembly and two high-pressure air knife assemblies 31, and the high-pressure pulse rotating wind assembly is arranged in the middle of the two high-pressure air knife assemblies 31. The high-pressure air knife assembly 31 includes a bellows 311 connected to an external high-pressure air source, and a strip air port 310 is provided at the bottom of the bellows 311 perpendicular to the feeding direction of the mesh belt conveyor 2. The external high-pressure air is blown out through the strip air port 310 below the bellows 311, which can form a straight-line wind knife, thereby effectively dehydrating and air-drying the medicine bottle. The high-pressure pulse rotating wind assembly includes a plurality of rotating air nozzles 32 connected to an external high-pressure air source, and the rotating air nozzles 32 are arranged in a horizontal array. The rotating air nozzle 32 adopts a rotating high-pressure air nozzle structure commonly used on the market. The high-speed rotation of air in the rotating air nozzle 32 can generate intermittent shock wave airflow, and can blow out pulsed high-pressure gas downward. This is a prior art and its principle will not be repeated.

[0024] After being rinsed by the cleaning mechanism 4, the medicine bottles are conveyed by the mesh belt conveyor 2, firstly blown by the wind knife of the first high-pressure air knife assembly 31, then dried by the high-pressure rotating air blown out by the rotating air nozzle 32 in the middle, and finally further blown and dried by the wind knife of the second high-pressure air knife assembly 31, thereby significantly improving the drying efficiency and drying quality of the medicine bottles.

[0025] The machine body 1 is also provided with an adjustment mechanism 8 for synchronously adjusting the height of the cleaning mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3, and the adjustment mechanism 8 is also provided with a rocking mechanism. The adjustment mechanism 8 includes a longitudinal moving frame 6 and a lifting drive assembly. The rear side wall of the longitudinal moving frame 6 is slidably mounted on the machine body 1 through a vertically arranged first slide rail 61, and the action end of the lifting drive assembly is connected to the longitudinal moving frame 6. Specifically, the lifting drive assembly includes a screw 82 and a crank 81. The screw 82 is vertically arranged and rotatably mounted on the machine body 1. The connecting block 70 fixed on the longitudinal moving frame 6 is threadedly sleeved on the screw 82, and the crank 81 is installed at the end of the screw 82. Among them, a bolt locking clamp 83 that cooperates with the screw 82 is also installed on the connecting block 70. After the height of the longitudinal moving frame 6 is adjusted to the right position, the screw 82 can be fixed and locked by adjusting the bolt locking clamp 83, thereby improving the safety and stability of the equipment.

[0026] According to the height of the cleaning medicine bottles, the screw 82 is driven to rotate by the crank 81, and under the sliding limit action of the first slide rail 61, the connecting block 70 drives the longitudinal moving frame 6 to vertically lift and lower, thereby effectively adjusting the distance between the cleaning mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3 and the mesh belt conveyor 2 below, so that the device can adapt to the cleaning of different types of medicine bottles, making the device more applicable.

[0027] The swing mechanism is used to drive the cleaning mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3 to swing back and forth horizontally. The swing mechanism includes a horizontal driving assembly 71 and a transverse plate 7. The cleaning mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3 are fixed on the vertically arranged transverse plate 7. The transverse plate 7 is installed on the rear side wall of the longitudinal frame 6 by means of a second slide rail 62 to slide horizontally in the feeding direction, thereby improving the stability of the horizontal movement of the transverse plate 7. The horizontal driving assembly 71 is installed on the longitudinal frame 6 and its action end is connected to the transverse plate 7. In this embodiment, the horizontal driving assembly 71 is a horizontally arranged telescopic cylinder, and the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the transverse plate 7.

[0028] By utilizing the continuous reciprocating contraction and extension of the telescopic cylinder, the transverse plate 7 can continuously reciprocate along the feeding direction, thereby driving the cleaning mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3 to continuously swing above the medicine bottles, so that the medicine bottles can be rinsed and air-dried without dead ends, avoiding the problem of inadequate spraying and air-drying, thereby significantly improving the cleaning quality of the medicine bottles.

[0029] When the device is in use, the medicine bottles are placed upright on the grid conveyor, or the drainable box tray containing the medicine bottles can be placed directly on the grid conveyor, so that the medicine bottles are conveyed from right to left, and are successively rinsed by the clean water nozzle 410 and the purified water nozzle 420 of the cleaning mechanism 4 under high pressure, and then sent to the drying mechanism 3. The residual water droplets on the medicine bottles can be efficiently dried by the blowing of the front and rear high-pressure air knife assemblies 31 and the rotating air nozzle 32 in the middle; during this period, under the drive of the telescopic cylinder, the cleaning mechanism 4 and the drying mechanism 3 can be continuously swung left and right above the medicine bottles, so that the medicine bottles can be rinsed and dried without dead ends.
