It usually uses methods such as hot air or ultraviolet rays to efficiently sterilize the surface or interior of objects to achieve the purpose of eliminating bacteria, viruses, molds and other microorganisms.
[0003] Currently, most of the continuous secondary sterilization machines on the market use a chain conveyor structure to transport bottle cages (bar cages) containing product carriers, so that the bottle cages pass through high-temperature steam or sterilizers to achieve continuous sterilization operations. However, most of the bottle cages used in existing secondary sterilization machines are not easy to open and close, resulting in inconvenience in quickly taking and placing product carriers in the bottle cages, which needs to be improved.

[0008] As a further solution of the utility model: the limiting mechanism includes a lever rotatably connected to the end of the cover shell, one end of the lever is fixedly connected to a stop block, a tension spring is connected to the U-shaped plate, the top of the tension spring is connected to the lever, and both ends of the cover shell are fixedly connected to a stop pin, and when the bottom of the lever is against the stop pin, the stop block is located on the rotation path of the buckle plate.
[0009] As a further solution of the utility model: nuts are hooked at both ends of the tension spring, and the two nuts are respectively welded and fixed to the corresponding U-shaped plate and the shifting rod.
[0010] As a further solution of the utility model: a plurality of positioning plates are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cover shell, and the top of the tray abuts against the bottom of the positioning plates.
[0011] As a further solution of the utility model: both ends of the cover shell are fixedly connected with connecting seats, the outer wall of the buckle plate is opened with a through-hole, and the connecting seat passes through the corresponding through-hole.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0013] 1.
