Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] The supporting frame body 1 is provided with a supporting portion 2 and at least two rows of longitudinally arranged clamping rods 3, the arrangement direction of the clamping rods 3 is parallel to the supporting portion 2, and the clamping rods 3 in two adjacent rows cooperate with the supporting portion 2 to form a clamping groove for clamping the bottle mouth of the bottle-shaped container 11. The supporting portion 2 may be a supporting plate, or a row of supporting rods, or any other component of any shape that can cooperate with the clamping rods 3 to form a clamping groove for clamping the bottle mouth of the bottle-shaped container 11, and this embodiment does not impose any specific restrictions on this.
[0028] Specifically, the diameter of the bottle mouth of the bottle-shaped container 11 is larger than the diameter of the bottle neck, the spacing between the clamping rods 3 in two adjacent rows is larger than the diameter of the bottle neck of the bottle-shaped container 11 and smaller than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle-shaped container 11, the spacing between the clamping rods 3 in two adjacent rows is larger than the diameter of the bottle neck of the bottle-shaped container 11 so that the bottle-shaped container 11 can enter between the two rows of clamping rods 3, and the spacing between the clamping rods 3 in two adjacent rows is smaller than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle-shaped container 11 to prevent the bottle-shaped container 11 clamped by the clamping rods 3 from moving backward and slipping out from between the clamping rods 3.
[0029] Specifically, the distance between the clamping rod 3 and the support portion 2 is greater than the length of the bottle cap of the bottle-shaped container 11 in the axial direction of the bottle-shaped container 11, so that the bottle cap portion of the bottle-shaped container 11 can be accommodated between the clamping rod 3 and the corresponding support portion 2, further limiting the clamped bottle-shaped container 11 to prevent the bottle-shaped container from moving toward the support portion 2.
[0030] Preferably, a step 4 is extended transversely in the slot to press against the bottle-shaped container 11 to limit the longitudinal movement of the bottle-shaped container 11, and the step 4 is elastically arranged. Specifically, the elastic arrangement of the step 4 may be that the step 4 itself is elastic, or that the step 4 is elastically connected in the slot, and can be deformed to allow the bottle-shaped container 11 to pass through and enter the slot, and after the bottle-shaped container 11 enters the slot, it recovers its deformation to abut against the bottle-shaped container 11 to limit the axial movement of the bottle-shaped container 11 in the clamping rod 3. More preferably, the step 4 protrudes from the spring sheet by 0.3-0.8mm, and can press against the side of the bottle cap of the bottle-shaped container 11 to prevent the bottle-shaped container 11 from floating up due to buoyancy during the water bath thawing process, resulting in insufficient movement and reduced thawing efficiency. Preferably, the step 4 protrudes from the spring sheet by 0.5mm.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment, a spring sheet 5 is provided on the support portion 2 or the clamping rod 3, and the step 4 is arranged at the end of the spring sheet 5, so that the structure is more stable and easy to manufacture.

A limiter for limiting the position of the clamping rod 3 is also provided in the slide groove, so that the spacing of the clamping rod 3 can be adjusted to accommodate bottle-shaped containers of different sizes. In another embodiment, a plurality of card interfaces are arranged in the carrier frame body 1, and the bottom of the clamping rod 3 is fixedly connected to the card interface, and the spacing of the clamping rod 3 can be adjusted by replacing the card interface to which the clamping rod 3 is connected.
[0033] Preferably, the bottom end of the supporting frame body 1 is provided with an arc surface to prevent water from accumulating in the inner corners of the supporting frame body 1 to breed microorganisms and cause hygiene problems, and a drain port 6 is opened on the arc surface to facilitate water discharge.
[0034] As a preferred embodiment, a water hole 7 is provided on the side of the supporting frame body 1 for water flow to improve the heat exchange efficiency. Under the premise of ensuring the strength of the supporting frame body 1, the water hole in the movement direction is increased as much as possible to facilitate the flow of water and ensure the heat exchange efficiency. Preferably, the supporting frame body 1 translates in a direction perpendicular to the surface on which the clamping rod 3 is provided, and the area of the water hole 7 is greater than 50% of the area of the side of the supporting frame body 1 where it is located, and less than 70% of the area of the side of the supporting frame body 1 where it is located.
[0035] Preferably, a connecting portion 8 is provided on the side of the supporting frame body 1; the connecting portion 8 is connected to a strap (not shown) for assisting the bottle-shaped container 11. The strap is tied to the connecting portion 8, and the strap spans the supporting frame body 1 to limit the juice bottle from floating up, thereby assisting in fixing the juice bottle.
[0036] As a preferred embodiment, a hook 9 for coupling with the driving device is provided on the outer side of the supporting frame body 1 .
[0037] As a preferred embodiment, a roller 10 is installed at the bottom of the supporting frame body 1. The supporting frame body 1 reciprocates in a water bath environment, and the roller 10 reduces the friction force at the bottom of the supporting frame body 1, thereby improving the speed and efficiency of its reciprocating translation.
