[0017] This application has the following advantages:
[0018] In the embodiments of this application, compared with the problems in the prior art where "the clamping of the oral liquid bottle is unstable, and it is easy to shake, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the oral liquid bottle; and during the drying process of the oral liquid bottle, there is a probability of contaminating the cleaned bottle during the transfer process," this application provides a solution that uses an electric push rod and clamping accessories to firmly clamp the bottle body and integrates cleaning and drying. Specifically, it includes a support frame, a drying mechanism slidably mounted on the top of the support frame, a cleaning mechanism slidably mounted on the bottom of the support frame, a flipping frame between the cleaning mechanism and the drying mechanism, and a storage tray on the end face of the flipping frame; the storage tray has at least one storage slot, and at least two [unclear] ...

[0026] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0027] The inventors, through analysis of existing technologies, discovered that most current devices for holding oral liquid bottles can only hold the bottom of the bottle, resulting in insufficient stability. To further improve the stability of the grip, this application proposes a gripping solution for both the bottle body and the bottle neck.
[0028] Reference Figures 1-3 This application shows a cleaning device for an oral liquid bottle according to an embodiment of the present application, including a support frame 10, a drying mechanism 11 slidably provided on the top of the support frame 10, a cleaning mechanism 12 slidably provided on the bottom of the support frame 10, a flipping frame 13 provided between the cleaning mechanism 12 and the drying mechanism 11, and a storage tray 20 provided on the end face of the flipping frame 13.
[0029] The storage tray 20 is provided with at least one storage slot 21. The storage slot 21 contains at least two clamping components arranged in a ring. The inner wall of the storage slot 21 is provided with a first electric push rod and a second electric push rod. Each clamping component includes a first clamping piece 22, a second clamping piece 23, a first guide piece 24, and a second guide piece 25. The bottom end of the second clamping piece 23 is hinged to the movable end of the first electric push rod, and the top end of the second clamping piece 23 is connected to the bottom end of the first clamping piece 22. The angle α between the first clamping piece 22 and the second clamping piece 23 faces the centerline of the storage slot 21. The first clamping piece 22 is connected to the movable end of the second electric push rod, and the top end of the first clamping piece 22 is connected to the bottom end of the first guide piece 24. The angle b between the first clamping piece 22 and the first guide piece 24 faces away from the centerline of the storage slot 21. The bottom end of the second guide piece 25 is connected to the bottom end of the second clamping piece 23, and the angle c between the second guide piece 25 and the second clamping piece 23 faces the angle α.
[0030] It should be noted that before placing the oral liquid bottle in the storage slot 21, the movable rods of the first and second electric push rods retract. At this time, the ring-shaped clamping components provide a large accommodating space, allowing most oral liquid bottles to be placed directly inside. When the robotic arm picks up the oral liquid bottle and places it into the storage slot 21, the movable ends of the first and second electric push rods extend and retract, pressing the clamping components against the oral liquid bottle. This causes the chamfers of the first guide plate 24 and the first clamping plate 22 of the clamping components to embed into the bottle neck, thereby simultaneously clamping the bottle body and the bottle neck. This provides stable working conditions for the subsequent process of cleaning the oral liquid bottles in the storage tray 20 by sliding upward through the cleaning mechanism 12, and then flipping the rotating frame 13 to turn the storage tray 20 upward, while the drying mechanism 11 slides downward to dry the cleaned oral liquid bottles in the storage tray 20. This process also prevents the oral liquid bottles from being scratched.
[0031] It should be noted that the positions of the drying mechanism 11 and the cleaning mechanism 12 can be interchanged. For example, the cleaning mechanism 12 can be slidably arranged on the top of the support frame 10, and the drying mechanism 11 can be slidably arranged on the bottom of the support frame 10. In this application, it is preferred that the drying mechanism 11 is slidably arranged on the top of the support frame 10, and the cleaning mechanism 12 is slidably arranged on the bottom of the support frame 10.
[0032] In one specific implementation, the storage slot 21 has an opening, and two clamping components are provided inside the storage slot 21. The two clamping components are arranged in a ring to form a receiving cavity for placing the oral liquid bottle, and the receiving cavity is directly opposite the opening. The cleaning mechanism 12 is provided with a water pipe, a spraying component, and a water pump for pumping liquid into the spraying component. The spraying component includes a spray pipe and nozzles. The spray pipe is connected to the water pipe, and the nozzles are evenly spaced and correspond to the receiving cavity of the storage slot 21, so that the liquid sprayed from the nozzles can be accurately sprayed into the oral liquid bottle, achieving a thorough rinsing of the oral liquid bottle through spray cleaning.
[0033] In one specific implementation, the drying mechanism 11 includes a hot air blower, a hot air pipe, and an air delivery duct. The air outlet of the hot air blower is connected to the hot air pipe, and the air outlet of the hot air pipe is connected to the air delivery duct. The air delivery duct is provided with a plurality of air outlets arranged at equal intervals. The air outlets correspond to the receiving cavity of the storage slot 21, so that the hot air blown out by the hot air blower can be accurately delivered into the oral liquid bottle to achieve the drying of the oral liquid bottle.
[0034] In this application embodiment, compared with the problems in the prior art where "the clamping of the oral liquid bottle is unstable, and it is easy to shake, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the oral liquid bottle; and during the drying process of the oral liquid bottle, there is a probability of contaminating the cleaned bottle during the transfer process", this application provides a solution that uses an electric push rod and clamping accessories to firmly clamp the bottle body, and integrates cleaning and drying. Specifically, it includes a support frame 10, a drying mechanism 11 slidably mounted on the top of the support frame 10, a cleaning mechanism 12 slidably mounted on the bottom of the support frame 10, a flipping frame 13 between the cleaning mechanism 12 and the drying mechanism 11, and a storage tray 20 on the end face of the flipping frame 13; the storage tray 20 has at least one storage slot 21, and at least two clamping accessories arranged in a ring are provided in the storage slot 21. The storage slot 21 has a first electric push rod and a second electric push rod on its inner wall. The clamping component includes a first clamping piece 22, a second clamping piece 23, a first guide piece 24, and a second guide piece 25. The bottom end of the second clamping piece 23 is hinged to the movable end of the first electric push rod, and the top end of the second clamping piece 23 is connected to the bottom end of the first clamping piece 22. The angle α between the first clamping piece 22 and the second clamping piece 23 faces the centerline of the storage slot 21. The first clamping piece 22 is connected to the movable end of the second electric push rod, and the top end of the first clamping piece 22 is connected to the bottom end of the first guide piece 24. The angle b between the first clamping piece 22 and the first guide piece 24 faces away from the centerline of the storage slot 21. The bottom end of the second guide piece 25 is connected to the bottom end of the second clamping piece 23, and the angle c between the second guide piece 25 and the second clamping piece 23 faces the angle α. Oral liquid bottles of different sizes can be introduced through the notch formed by multiple first guide plates 24 in the clamping component and through the first electric push rod; the chamfer of the first guide plate 24 and the first clamping plate 22 is embedded into the bottle neck through the second electric push rod, thereby clamping the bottle body and the bottle neck at the same time to avoid scratching the bottle body during clamping; the storage tray 20 is flipped by the flipping frame 13 to realize the drying treatment of the cleaned oral liquid bottles in the storage tray 20.
[0035] The cleaning device for an oral liquid bottle described above will be further explained below through the following embodiments.
[0036] In one embodiment of this application, a torsion spring is provided at the connection between the first clip 22 and the second clip 23.
[0037] It should be noted that the first clamping piece 22, the second clamping piece 23, the first guide piece 24, and the second guide piece 25 are all made of materials with good toughness and elasticity, making them less prone to bending and breakage. By setting a torsion spring between the first clamping piece 22 and the second clamping piece 23, the chamfer between the first clamping piece 22 and the first guide piece 24 can hold bottlenecks of different heights.
[0038] As an example, the torsion spring is inclined towards the centerline of the storage slot 21. The centerline refers to the line centered in the storage slot in the direction in which the oral liquid bottle is placed. Figure 3 As shown, the center line is a line perpendicular to the connection line of the torsion spring between the first clamping piece 22 and the second clamping piece 23 in the two clamping components.
[0039] In one embodiment of this application, reference is made to Figure 4 The first clip 22 includes a first sub-clip 28 and a second sub-clip 29. One end of the first sub-clip 28 is connected to the second clip 23. The second sub-clip 29 passes through the other end of the first sub-clip 28 and slides inside the first sub-clip 28. A spring is connected between the second sub-clip 29 and the first sub-clip 28.
[0040] It should be noted that, through the telescopic arrangement of the first clip 28 and the second clip 29, the first clip 22 can be adapted to oral liquid bottles of different diameters. The restoring force provided by the spring ensures that the two always maintain a certain clamping force, so that the bottle will not be damaged due to being too tight, nor will the bottle slip off during the drying process due to being too loose.
[0041] In one embodiment of this application, reference is made to Figure 3 The bottom of the storage slot 21 is provided with a T-shaped hole that passes through the storage tray 20; the flipping frame 13 also includes a top plate 30 and a T-shaped top column, the T-shaped top column being disposed in the T-shaped hole.
[0042] It should be noted that, for removing the oral liquid bottle, the bottom can be detached by lifting the bottle opening. In this embodiment, after the cleaning and drying processes are completed, the oral liquid bottle in the storage slot 21 is pushed out by the top plate 30 and the T-shaped top column, which is a more direct and effective method.
[0043] In one embodiment of this application, the side of the second guide piece 25 is provided with an anti-slip silicone layer. The anti-slip silicone layer can further increase the friction between the second guide piece 25 and the bottle body, thereby improving the stability of the clamping.
[0044] In one specific implementation, the first guide piece 24, the first clamping piece 22, and the second clamping piece 23 are further provided with a silicone layer, which can prevent the bottle body from being scratched.
[0045] In one embodiment of this application, the first guide piece 24 and the second guide piece 25 are arc-shaped. Setting the guide pieces to an arc-shaped structure allows for better fit to the outer wall of the bottle body and neck.
[0046] In one embodiment of this application, the bottom end of the second guide plate 25 is provided with a ball head 27 that is connected to the movable end of the first electric push rod.
[0047] In one embodiment of this application, the support frame 10 is further provided with a slide rail, and the drying mechanism 11 and the cleaning mechanism 12 are respectively slidably connected to the slide rail; the drying mechanism 11 and the cleaning mechanism 12 are respectively connected to an electric telescopic rod.
[0048] It should be noted that the drying mechanism 11 and the cleaning mechanism 12 can be pushed close to the oral liquid bottle in the storage tray 20 by the electric telescopic rod, so that the drying mechanism 11 and the cleaning mechanism 12 can work on the oral liquid bottle.
[0049] In one embodiment of this application, the support frame 10 is further provided with a drive motor, and the flipping frame 13 is connected to the drive motor in a transmission connection.
[0050] It should be noted that the drive motor is used to drive the flipping frame 13 and drive the top plate 30 of the flipping frame 13 to move, thereby driving the T-shaped top column to push the oral liquid bottle out of the storage slot 21.
[0051] In one embodiment of this application, the support frame 10 is further provided with a water-blocking wall 14 near the periphery of the cleaning mechanism 12.
[0052] It should be noted that the water barrier 14 can be made of transparent acrylic sheet, which can be used to prevent the cleaning fluid from overflowing.
[0053] Although preferred embodiments of the present application have been described, those skilled in the art, upon learning the basic inventive concept, can make other changes and modifications to these embodiments. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments as well as all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the embodiments of the present application.

Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or terminal device that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or terminal device.
