[0036] Embodiment 1:

[0037] Figure 1 and Figure 2An embodiment of the conveying device of the present invention applicable to special-shaped parts is shown. The conveying device of this embodiment applicable to special-shaped parts includes a conveying carrier 6 and a limiting member 641. The conveying carrier 6 is used to support the material 7 at multiple points, enabling the material to change its position relative to the conveying carrier 6 under the flushing action. The limiting member 641 is used to block above the material during the flushing of the material 7 and can move between a blocking position blocking above the material and a release position releasing the block above the material.

[0038] For this conveying device, on the one hand, the conveying carrier 6 is used to support the material 7 at multiple points (especially capable of supporting special-shaped parts at multiple points), enabling the material 7 to change its position relative to the conveying carrier 6 under the flushing action, so that the material 7 can be cleaned comprehensively without dead angles, meeting the requirement of dead-angle-free flushing. On the other hand, during cleaning, by blocking above the material 7 with the limiting member 641, it is possible to prevent the material 7 from slipping out from above the conveying carrier 6 under the flushing force, improving the flushing stability.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the conveying carrier 6 includes a conveying seat 61, an annular carrier 62, and a plurality of supporting parts 63 for supporting the material 7 at multiple points. Each supporting part 63 is arranged on the annular carrier 62 and spaced around the center of the annular carrier 62. The limiting member 641 is arranged on the conveying seat 61 or on one side of the conveying line of the conveying seat 61. When the material 7 is placed on the annular carrier 62, it is supported at multiple points by each supporting part 63. On the one hand, the blocking area of the annular carrier 62 and the supporting parts 63 for the material 7 is small, which is beneficial to avoiding the formation of flushing dead angles. On the other hand, it is convenient to set the cleaning device 3 so that its flushing liquid flushes the material 7 from the required direction and enables the material 7 to change its position relative to the conveying carrier 6 under the flushing action. On the one hand, the limiting member 641 can be arranged on the conveying carrier 6 (specifically arranged on the conveying seat 61 of the conveying carrier 6). In this way, the limiting member 641 can move with the conveying carrier 6 (conveying seat 61) and form a blocking limit for the material 7 during the conveying process, thereby preventing the material 7 from falling out. On the other hand, the limiting member 641 can also be arranged on one side of the conveying line of the conveying carrier 6 (specifically arranged on one side of the conveying line of the conveying seat 61 of the conveying carrier 6. There is a cleaning station on the conveying line of the conveying seat 61, and the limiting member 641 is used to block and limit the material 7 above the material 7 at the cleaning station). In this way, the limiting member 641 only blocks and limits the material 7 at the position corresponding to the cleaning device 3, which can reduce the manufacturing cost of arranging the limiting member 641 on each conveying carrier 6 (conveying seat 61).

[0040] Further, in this embodiment, a movable seat 64 and a driving assembly 65 are provided on the conveying seat 61 or on one side of the conveying line of the conveying seat 61. A limiting member 641 is provided on the movable seat 64, and the driving assembly 65 is connected to the movable seat 64 and is used to drive the movable seat 64 to drive the limiting member 641 to move. The driving assembly 65 drives the movable seat 64 to drive the limiting member 641 to move, so that the limiting member 641 moves between a blocking position where it blocks above the material 7 and a releasing position where it releases the block above the material 7.

[0041] Further, in this embodiment, there are two movable seats 64, and the middle parts of the two movable seats 64 are rotatably connected. The driving assembly 65 drives the two movable seats 64 to rotate around the rotation connection point, so that the limiting members 641 on the two movable seats 64 perform an opening and closing movement. When the limiting members 641 are close and closed, they are in a blocking position where they can block above the material 7, and when they are far apart and open, they are in a releasing position where they can release the block above the material 7. Preferably, the middle parts of the two movable seats 64 are rotatably connected to form a scissor shape. More preferably, the limiting member 641 is rod-shaped.

[0042] Further, in this embodiment, the material 7 is a bottle body, a cap body, etc.

[0043] Embodiment Two:

[0044] Figures 3 to 7 Another embodiment of the cleaning and drying system of the present invention is shown. The cleaning and drying system of this embodiment includes a cleaning conveying line 1 and the conveying device applicable to special-shaped parts in Embodiment One. Along the conveying direction, a loading device 2, a cleaning device 3, and a blanking buffer device 4 are sequentially provided on the cleaning conveying line 1. A drying device 5 is provided on one side of the blanking buffer device 4, and a conveying carrier 6 is arranged on the cleaning conveying line 1 and moves along the cleaning conveying line 1. On the one hand, this cleaning and drying system has all the advantages of the conveying device applicable to special-shaped parts. On the other hand, since a blanking buffer device 4 is provided between the cleaning device 3 and the drying device 5, the blanking buffer device 4 can buffer multiple groups of materials 7 to be dried after being cleaned upstream and synchronously send the multiple groups of materials 7 to be dried into the drying device 5, thereby reducing the long waiting time of the cleaning conveying line 1 and improving the overall production efficiency.

[0045] Further, in this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the drying device 5 includes a reciprocating conveying mechanism 51, a drying carrier 52, and a drying mechanism 53. The reciprocating conveying mechanism 51 is docked with the blanking buffer device 4. The drying carriers 52 are arranged in rows on the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51. The drying mechanism 53 is arranged on the conveying line of the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51, and a limiting strip 54 is arranged above the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51. The drying carrier 52 is used to carry the material 7. The reciprocating conveying mechanism 51 conveys the materials in rows to the drying mechanism 53 through the rows of drying carriers 52, and the drying mechanism 53 dries the materials. A limiting strip 54 is arranged above the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51. When the material 7 passes through the drying device 5, the limiting strip 54 blocks and limits above the material 7 to prevent the material 7 from slipping out of the drying carrier 52 and improve the stability of the drying process. Preferably, the limiting strip 54 is curved so that as the material 7 moves, it can block at different positions above the material 7, enabling all positions of the material 7 to be blown and avoiding blowing dead angles caused by the blocking of the limiting strip 54. More preferably, there are two limiting strips 54, and the two limiting strips 54 are symmetrically arranged. The limiting strip 54 is curved, so that the two limiting strips 54 have different spacing segments along the conveying direction of the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 7 shown, the drying carrier 52 includes an annular carrier 521 and a plurality of lifting parts 522 for multi-point supporting the material 7. The annular carrier 521 is arranged on the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51, and each lifting part 522 is arranged on the annular carrier 521 and is spaced around the center of the annular carrier 521.

[0047] When the material 7 is placed on the annular carrier 521, multi-point support is formed by each lifting part 522. On the one hand, the blocking area of the annular carrier 521 and the lifting parts 522 for the material 7 is small, which is beneficial to avoiding the formation of drying dead angles. On the other hand, it is convenient to arrange the drying mechanism 53 so that its air flow blows towards the material 7 from the required direction, and the material 7 can change its position relative to the conveying carrier 6 under the action of air blowing, improving the drying efficiency and effect and meeting the requirement of dead-angle-free drying.

[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the air drying mechanism 53 includes an upper air blowing member 531 and a lower air blowing member 532 respectively located above and below the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51. The upper air blowing member 531 is located above the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51 and blows air downward, while the lower air blowing member 532 is located below the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51 and blows air upward. When the material 7 passes through the upper air blowing member 531 and the lower air blowing member 532, the drying efficiency and effect are further improved through the dual air blowing action of blowing air from above and below. Both the upper air blowing member 531 and the lower air blowing member 532 are existing air blowing components, such as air knives, etc., and their specific structures will not be elaborated further. Preferably, the reciprocating conveying mechanism 51 includes a wire mesh belt, and the annular carrier 521 is arranged on the wire mesh belt, for example, the annular carrier 521 is welded to the wire mesh belt.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cleaning device 3 includes an upper spraying member 31 and a lower spraying member 32 respectively located above and below the cleaning conveyor line 1. The upper spraying member 31 is located above the cleaning conveyor line 1 and sprays the cleaning liquid downward, while the lower spraying member 32 is located below the cleaning conveyor line 1 and sprays the cleaning liquid upward. When the material 7 passes through the upper spraying member 31 and the lower spraying member 32, the cleaning efficiency and effect are further improved through the dual cleaning action of spraying from above and below. Both the upper spraying member 31 and the lower spraying member 32 are existing spraying components, such as spray nozzles, spray pipes, etc., and their specific structures will not be elaborated further.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the blanking buffer device 4 includes a buffer platform 41 and a transfer mechanism. The buffer platform 41 is arranged between the cleaning conveyor line 1 and the drying device 5. Multiple placement parts 42 for placing materials are provided on the buffer platform 41, and the transfer mechanism is used to transfer multiple groups of materials on the buffer platform 41 to the drying device 5 together.

[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cleaning conveyor line 1 can be alternately provided with multiple cleaning devices 3 and front air blowing mechanisms along the conveying direction.

[0052] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible changes and modifications to the technical solution of the present invention, or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
