Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of plastic bottle cap processing and cleaning, and specifically relates to a plastic bottle cap processing and cleaning device and a cleaning method. Background Art

[0002] The main materials of plastic bottle caps include plastic raw materials such as polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). These materials have the characteristics of simple processing, beauty, low price, etc., and meet food safety standards, so they are widely used in the packaging of industries such as food, beverages, and cosmetics.

[0003] A bottle cap cleaning device disclosed in Patent No. CN216574511U includes a cleaning tank. The cleaning tank includes a side wall and a bottom plate. The side wall and the bottom plate form a cleaning chamber with an upward opening. A cleaning liquid is injected into the cleaning chamber. A cover plate is installed on the upper part of the side wall. The cover plate is provided with a bottle cap placement plate extending downward into the cleaning chamber. A number of bottle caps are spaced and placed in the bottle cap placement plate. The cover plate is provided with a stirring paddle rotatably arranged in the cleaning chamber. The height of the cleaning liquid is higher than the height of the stirring paddle. Multiple bottle cap placement plates are evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the stirring paddle. The bottle caps are spaced and placed in the cleaning chamber through the bottle cap placement plate for cleaning, which not only ensures that the bottle caps will not collide with each other during cleaning, avoiding damage to the bottle caps, but also sets the bottle caps on the same plane through the bottle cap placement plate for cleaning, so that the cleaning liquid can more evenly and fully rinse the inside and surface of the bottle caps, improving the cleaning effect.

[0004] In the prior art, the stamped and cut bottle caps are placed in the cleaning chamber for stirring and cleaning. However, since the bottle caps are plastic products, this will cause the bottle caps to float on the liquid surface. Moreover, when cleaning the bottle caps, it is impossible to clean them one by one. A large number of bottle caps will be cleaned in batches and accumulate on the entire cleaning liquid. Although there is a stirring device for stirring, some bottle caps may not be covered due to buoyancy and stirring force, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the bottle caps, and some bottle caps may still have residual impurities and dust.

[0029] S1: The staff opens the barrel door on the main cleaning barrel and puts the just processed plastic bottle caps into the cleaning space composed of the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel.

[0030] S2: After placing, start the driving motor, so that the driving rod drives the support frame, the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel to move up and down in the cleaning box. The main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel moving up and down will rotate self - sufficiently, so that the plastic bottle caps placed in the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel will completely sink into the water flow in the cleaning box and be cleaned by rolling.

[0031] S3: When the plastic bottle caps are rolling in the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel, the stirring plates in the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel will also stir the plastic bottle caps, so that the plastic bottle caps are separated and not concentrated together, so as to obtain a better cleaning effect for the plastic bottle caps.

[0032] S4: After cleaning, the driving rod suspends the support frame, the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel above the cleaning box, drains the water in the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel, so that the plastic bottle caps in the main cleaning barrel and the auxiliary cleaning barrel can be quickly dried. Then the staff opens the barrel door to take out the plastic bottle caps for the next step of processing.

[0033] The beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0034] (1) The staff puts the processed and stamped plastic bottle caps into the cleaning component, and through the driving component, the lifting component is lifted. The lifting of the lifting component will also drive the cleaning component to lift at the same time. This setting is to make the plastic bottle caps placed in the cleaning component completely immersed in the cleaning solution of the cleaning box, avoiding the plastic bottle caps floating on the cleaning liquid surface due to their light weight, so that the plastic bottle caps cannot be effectively cleaned.

[0035] (2) When the lifting component places the cleaning component into the cleaning box, the cleaning component will cooperate with the components on the cleaning box to rotate self - sufficiently. The cleaning component rotates in the cleaning solution in the cleaning box, so that the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component roll over. The water flow will continuously wash the rolling plastic bottle caps, so as to remove dust, impurities and other substances on the plastic bottle caps and clean the plastic bottle caps.

[0036] (3) After the plastic bottle cap is cleaned, since the cleaning tank is set to have sufficient depth and there is still a certain distance above the cleaning liquid level, when the lifting component moves the cleaning component upward, the cleaning component will have already separated from the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank. When the cleaning component rotates, it will have a drying effect to remove the water on the plastic bottle cap. After the lifting component drives the cleaning component to separate from the cleaning tank, it will stay above the cleaning tank to drain the water from the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component and keep the plastic bottle caps dry.

[0037] (4) When the cleaning component enters the cleaning tank and rotates, while the cleaning component rotates, it will drive the stirring component to rotate inside the cleaning component. This is set to disperse and separate the plastic bottle caps placed in the cleaning component under the agitation of the stirring component, so that the plastic bottle caps are not in a stacked state inside the cleaning component, and the stirring component disperses and separates the plastic bottle caps so that the water flow can fully rinse the plastic bottle caps clean.

[0038] (5) When the cleaning component enters the cleaning tank, it brushes the plastic bottle caps to remove the dust and impurities on the plastic bottle caps and prevent the dust and impurities from clogging the holes on the cleaning component. Therefore, the driving component is used to drive the brushing component to rotate, and the rotating brushing component will brush the cleaning component to make the dust and impurities separate from the holes on the cleaning component and avoid clogging the cleaning component and affecting the cleaning effect.

[0049] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 - 8 As shown in the figure, the present invention is a plastic bottle cap processing and cleaning device, including a cleaning tank 1, a driving box 4, and a filter tank 2; it also includes a cleaning and stirring unit arranged in the cleaning tank 1;

[0051] The driving box 4 is fixedly arranged on one side of the cleaning tank 1;

[0052] The filter tank 2 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1;

[0053] The cleaning and stirring unit is arranged in the cleaning tank 1, including a driving assembly, a lifting assembly 01, a cleaning assembly 02, a stirring assembly 03, and a brushing assembly 04; the driving assembly drives the lifting assembly 01 to lift; the lifting assembly 01 drives the cleaning assembly 02 to rotate; the cleaning assembly 02 drives the stirring assembly 03 to rotate; the driving assembly drives the brushing assembly 04 to rotate;

[0054] Put the plastic bottle cap into the cleaning component 02, and drive the lifting component 01 to lift and lower by the driving component. The lifting and lowering of the lifting component 01 will cause the cleaning component 02 to reciprocally rise and fall, and make the cleaning component 02 rotate, so that the plastic bottle cap rolls in the cleaning component 02. Then, drive the stirring component 03 to rotate by the rotation of the cleaning component 02, so as to turn over and stir the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component 02. The driving component drives the brushing component 04 to rotate to brush the cleaning component 02;

[0055] The staff puts the processed and stamped plastic bottle caps into the cleaning component 02, and makes the lifting component 01 lift and lower through the driving component. The lifting and lowering of the lifting component 01 will also drive the cleaning component 02 to lift and lower at the same time. This setting is to enable the plastic bottle caps placed in the cleaning component 02 to be completely immersed in the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 1, avoiding the plastic bottle caps floating on the cleaning liquid surface due to their light weight, so that the plastic bottle caps cannot be effectively cleaned;

[0056] When the lifting component 01 places the cleaning component 02 into the cleaning tank 1, the cleaning component 02 will cooperate with the components on the cleaning tank 1 to rotate automatically. The cleaning component 02 rotates in the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 1, so as to make the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component 02 roll over. The water flow will continuously wash the rolling plastic bottle caps, thereby removing substances such as dust and impurities on the plastic bottle caps and cleaning the plastic bottle caps;

[0057] After the plastic bottle caps are cleaned, because the cleaning tank 1 is set to have sufficient depth and there is still a certain distance above the cleaning liquid level, when the lifting component 01 drives the cleaning component 02 to move upward, at this time the cleaning component 02 has already separated from the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 1. The rotation of the cleaning component 02 plays a role of drying, removing the water on the plastic bottle caps. After the lifting component 01 drives the cleaning component 02 to separate from the cleaning tank 1, it will stay above the cleaning tank 1 to drain the water from the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component 02 and keep the plastic bottle caps dry;

[0058] When the cleaning component 02 rotates after entering the cleaning tank 1, the rotation of the cleaning component 02 will drive the stirring component 03 to rotate in the cleaning component 02 at the same time. This setting is to enable the plastic bottle caps placed in the cleaning component 02 to be scattered and separated under the stirring of the stirring component 03, so that the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component 02 are not in a piled-up state. The stirring component 03 scatters and separates the plastic bottle caps so that the water flow can fully wash the plastic bottle caps clean;

[0059] When the cleaning component 02 enters the cleaning tank 1, it brushes the plastic bottle caps to remove the dust and impurities on the plastic bottle caps, preventing the dust and impurities from clogging the holes on the cleaning component 02. Therefore, the driving component drives the brushing component 04 to rotate, and the rotating brushing component 04 will brush the cleaning component 02 to make the dust and impurities separate from the holes on the cleaning component 02, avoiding clogging the cleaning component 02 and affecting the cleaning effect;

[0060] The cleaned dust and impurities will accumulate at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. The driving component drives the brushing component 04 to rotate to disturb the water flow at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, so that the impurities accumulated at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 are stirred up, and then these impurities are filtered and removed through the filter tank 2, preventing the impurities from accumulating in the corners at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 and being difficult to clean, which may cause the accumulation of germs and affect the cleaning of the plastic bottle caps.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown in, the driving component includes a driving motor 28, a driving rod 6, a limiting block 7 and a spring 8;

[0062] The lifting component 01 includes a moving block 9, a support plate 10, a support column 11 and a support frame 12;

[0063] Among them, the driving rod 6 is rotatably arranged in the driving box 4; the driving motor 28 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the driving box 4, and the driving motor 28 is communicated with the driving rod 6; the limiting block 7 is fixedly arranged on the driving rod 6; the driving rod 6 is provided with a thread above the limiting block 7; the spring 8 is sleeved on the driving rod 6, and one end of the spring 8 is fixedly connected with the limiting block 7;

[0064] The moving block 9 is rotatably arranged on the thread of the driving rod 6; one end of the support plate 10 is fixedly connected with the moving block 9; the support column 11 is fixedly arranged at the other end of the support plate 10; the support frame 12 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the support column 11;

[0065] The driving rod 6 is rotated by the driving motor 28. The rotating driving rod 6 drives the moving block 9 to move up and down. The movement of the moving block 9 causes the support plate 10, the support column 11, and the support frame 12 to move up and down together, so as to drive the cleaning component 02 on the support frame 12 to rise or fall. The driving motor 28 can rotate the driving rod 6 forward or backward, causing the moving block 9 to have a reciprocating effect. The driving rod 6 is provided with a limiting block 7 and a spring 8. When the driving rod 6 needs to rotate continuously, the moving block 9 will rotate to a position on the driving rod 6 where there is no thread, so that the moving block 9 will no longer move downward. When the moving block 9 needs to move upward, the spring 8 will push the moving block 9 to re-engage with the thread on the driving rod 6 for movement.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the cleaning component 02 includes a rotating shaft 21, a main cleaning barrel 13, a secondary cleaning barrel 16, a connecting column 15, a sliding gear 17, a sliding bin 32, and a sliding tooth plate 33;

[0067] Among them, the rotating shaft 21 is rotatably arranged on the support frame 12; the main cleaning barrel 13 is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft 21; there are two connecting columns 15, which are symmetrically fixed on the support frame 12; the secondary cleaning barrel 16 is fixedly arranged at the other end of the connecting column 15, and the rotating shaft 21 passes through the secondary cleaning barrel 16; there are two sliding gears 17, which are respectively fixedly arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft 21; the sliding bin 32 is opened on the cleaning box 1; the sliding tooth plate 33 is fixedly arranged in the sliding bin 32; the sliding gear 17 meshes with the sliding tooth plate 33;

[0068] The up and down movement of the support frame 12 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rise or fall, so that the sliding gear 17 on the rotating shaft 21 meshes with the sliding tooth plate 33 in the sliding bin 32, causing the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. The rotating rotating shaft 21 drives the main cleaning barrel 13 to rotate. The secondary cleaning barrel 16 is fixed on the support frame 12 through the connecting column 15. The main cleaning barrel 13 and the secondary cleaning barrel 16 are snap-connected. Therefore, the rotation of the main cleaning barrel 13 drives the plastic bottle caps in the barrel to turn and roll, allowing the water flow to wash the plastic bottle caps to remove the dust and impurities on the plastic bottle caps.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the stirring component 03 includes a stirring gear 24, a main gear 22, a stirring plate 23, and a stirring column 36;

[0070] Among them, the main gear 22 is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft 21; there are two stirring columns 36, which are symmetrically and rotatably arranged in the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16; the stirring gear 24 is fixedly arranged on the stirring column 36; the stirring gear 24 meshes with the main gear 22; the stirring plate 23 is fixedly arranged on the stirring column 36;

[0071] The rotation of the rotating shaft 21 will drive the main gear 22 on the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. The rotation of the main gear 22 will cause the two stirring gears 24 to rotate. The two stirring gears 24 will cause the stirring column 36 to rotate, so that the stirring plate 23 on the stirring column 36 rotates in the space formed by the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16. The rotating stirring plate 23 will stir the plastic bottle caps, separating the plastic bottle caps that are piled up due to buoyancy, preventing some plastic bottle caps from not being able to contact the cleaning solution due to piling up and ensuring that some plastic bottle caps are not cleaned thoroughly.

[0072] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the driving assembly further includes a driving bevel gear 29, a driven rod 30 and a driven bevel gear 31;

[0073] The brushing assembly 04 includes a cleaning bevel gear 35, a rotating column 25, a cleaning rod 26 and a fixing plate 34;

[0074] Among them, the driving bevel gear 29 is fixedly arranged on the driving rod 6; the driven rod 30 is rotatably arranged in the driving box 4; the driven bevel gear 31 is fixedly arranged on the top of the driven rod 30; the driving bevel gear 29 meshes with the driven bevel gear 31;

[0075] The fixing plate 34 is fixedly arranged in the cleaning box 1; the rotating column 25 is rotatably arranged at the inner bottom of the cleaning box 1, and the other end of the rotating column 25 penetrates through the fixing plate 34; the cleaning rod 26 is fixedly arranged on the rotating column 25; the cleaning bevel gear 35 is fixedly arranged at one end of the rotating column 25, and the cleaning bevel gear 35 meshes with the driven bevel gear 31;

[0076] The rotation of the driving rod 6 drives the driving bevel gear 29 to rotate. The rotating driving bevel gear 29 will cause the driven rod 30 and the driven bevel gear 31 to rotate. The rotating driven bevel gear 31 meshes with the cleaning bevel gear 35, causing the cleaning bevel gear 35, the rotating column 25 and the cleaning rod 26 to rotate. The two ends of the rotating column 25 are respectively arranged on the cleaning box 1 and the fixing plate 34. The rotating cleaning rod 26 brushes the main cleaning barrel 13 and disturbs the water flow at the bottom to turn over the impurities accumulated at the bottom, so as to discharge them from the cleaning box 1.

[0077] Please refer to Figures 1 - 7As shown, a filter box 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning box 1; a filter grille 27 is slidably connected inside the filter box 2; a sealing plate 20 is fixedly connected to the filter grille 27; a return pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter box 2; the other end of the return pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the cleaning box 1;

[0078] Water flows into the filter box 2 through the holes at the bottom of the cleaning box 1, and then the filter grille 27 inside the filter box 2 removes impurities in the water flow. The water flow with impurities removed is then discharged back into the cleaning box 1 through the return pipe 3, reducing water waste and achieving a cleaning effect. When the cleaning of plastic bottle caps is completed, the staff pulls the sealing plate 20 to pull out the filter grille 27 from the filter box 2, and then conducts cleaning or replacement to ensure normal filtration of the water flow in the cleaning box 1 during the next cleaning.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, a bucket door 14 is rotatably connected to the main cleaning bucket 13; a first fixing block 18 is fixedly connected to the bucket door 14; a second fixing block 19 is fixedly connected to the main cleaning bucket 13; the first fixing block 18 is snap-connected to the second fixing block 19; the second fixing block 19 is movably connected to a fixing screw rod 37; a fixing nut 38 is rotatably connected to the fixing screw rod 37;

[0080] By passing the fixing screw rod 37 through the first fixing block 18 and the second fixing block 19, and then threading the fixing nut 38 onto the fixing screw rod 37, the bucket door 14 is connected to the main cleaning bucket 13, preventing the plastic bottle caps inside the main cleaning bucket 13 and the auxiliary cleaning bucket 16 from coming out during the cleaning process. When it is necessary to take out the plastic bottle caps, the fixing screw rod 37 is separated from the fixing nut 38, and the fixing screw rod 37 is separated from the first fixing block 18 and the second fixing block 19, so that the first fixing block 18 and the second fixing block 19 are not in a connected state, and thus the bucket door 14 can be separated from the main cleaning bucket 13.

[0081] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, a limiting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the drive box 4; there are two limiting plates 5, which are symmetrically arranged on the top of the drive box 4; the moving block 9 slides on the limiting plate 5;

[0082] When the drive rod 6 drives the moving block 9 to move up or down through screw engagement, to prevent the moving block 9 from rotating, the moving block 9 is made to slide on the limiting plate 5, so that the moving block 9 can only move up and down and is not allowed to rotate.

[0083] Please refer to Figures 1 - 8As shown in the figure, a plastic bottle cap processing and cleaning method includes the following steps:

[0084] S1: The staff opens the barrel door 14 on the main cleaning barrel 13 and puts the just-processed plastic bottle caps into the cleaning space composed of the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16.

[0085] S2: After placing, start the drive motor 28 to drive the drive rod 6 to drive the support frame 12, the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16 to move up and down in the cleaning tank 1. The main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16 moving up and down will rotate on their own, so that the plastic bottle caps placed in the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16 will completely sink into the water flow in the cleaning tank 1 and be cleaned by rolling.

[0086] S3: When the plastic bottle caps are rolling in the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16, the stirring plates 23 in the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16 will also stir the plastic bottle caps to separate them and prevent them from gathering together, so as to achieve a better cleaning effect on the plastic bottle caps.

[0087] S4: After cleaning, the drive rod 6 suspends the support frame 12, the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16 above the cleaning tank 1 to drain the water in the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16, so that the plastic bottle caps in the main cleaning barrel 13 and the auxiliary cleaning barrel 16 can be quickly dried. Then the staff opens the barrel door 14 to take out the plastic bottle caps for the next step of processing.

[0088] The working principle of the present invention: The staff puts the processed and stamped plastic bottle caps into the cleaning component 02, and through the drive component, the lifting component 01 is lifted and lowered. The lifting of the lifting component 01 will also drive the cleaning component 02 to be lifted and lowered at the same time. This setting is to ensure that the plastic bottle caps placed in the cleaning component 02 can be completely immersed in the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 1, avoiding the situation that the plastic bottle caps float on the cleaning liquid surface due to their light weight, so that the plastic bottle caps cannot be effectively cleaned.

[0089] When the lifting component 01 places the cleaning component 02 into the cleaning tank 1, the cleaning component 02 will cooperate with the components on the cleaning tank 1 to rotate on its own. The cleaning component 02 rotates in the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 1, so that the plastic bottle caps in the cleaning component 02 will roll over. The water flow will continuously wash the rolling plastic bottle caps, thereby removing dust, impurities and other substances on the plastic bottle caps and cleaning the plastic bottle caps.

[0090] After the plastic bottle cap is cleaned, since the cleaning tank 1 is set to have a sufficient depth and there is still a certain distance above the cleaning liquid level, when the lifting component 01 moves the cleaning component 02 upward, the cleaning component 02 has already separated from the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 1. When the cleaning component 02 rotates, it has a drying effect, removing the moisture on the plastic bottle cap. After the lifting component 01 drives the cleaning component 02 to separate from the cleaning tank 1, it will stay above the cleaning tank 1 to drain the moisture from the plastic bottle cap in the cleaning component 02 and keep the plastic bottle cap dry.

[0091] When the cleaning component 02 enters the cleaning tank 1 and rotates, while the cleaning component 02 rotates, it will drive the stirring component 03 to rotate inside the cleaning component 02. This is set to disperse and separate the plastic bottle caps placed in the cleaning component 02 under the agitation of the stirring component 03, so that the plastic bottle caps are not in a piled-up state inside the cleaning component 02, and the stirring component 03 disperses and separates the plastic bottle caps to allow the water flow to fully rinse the plastic bottle caps clean.

[0092] When the cleaning component 02 enters the cleaning tank 1, it brushes the plastic bottle cap to remove the dust and impurities on the plastic bottle cap and prevent the dust and impurities from clogging the holes on the cleaning component 02. Therefore, the driving component drives the brushing component 04 to rotate, and the rotating brushing component 04 brushes the cleaning component 02 to make the dust and impurities separate from the holes on the cleaning component 02, avoiding clogging the cleaning component 02 and affecting the cleaning effect.

[0093] The dust and impurities washed down will accumulate at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. The driving component drives the brushing component 04 to rotate to disturb the water flow at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, stirring up the impurities accumulated at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, and then filtering and removing these impurities through the filter tank 2 to prevent the impurities from accumulating in the corners at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, which is not easy to clean and may cause the accumulation of germs, affecting the cleaning of the plastic bottle cap.

[0094] The above has described a detailed embodiment of the present invention, but the content described is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention and cannot be considered as limiting the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made according to the scope of the application of the present invention should still fall within the scope covered by the patent of the present invention.
