Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sterilization of beer barrel spouts, in particular to automatic sterilization equipment for beer barrel spouts. Background Art

[0002] At present, disposable PET beer barrels are becoming more and more popular in the market. The processing flow is as follows: first take a PET bottle blank and blow mold it to form a PET barrel of target shape and volume, and then fill the beer after the beer spear is loaded. In the above process, in order to ensure the hygiene and sterility of the beer in the beer barrel as much as possible, the filling production of PET beer barrels usually has two working methods:

[0003] One is that the manufacturer of PET beer barrels completes the blow molding of PET barrels in a dust-free workshop, sterilizes the PET barrels and beer spears, and then installs the sterilized beer spears into the PET beer barrels. In this way, after the brewery receives the PET barrels, it does not need to sterilize the inside of the beer barrels again, but can directly fill them. However, in this way, it is necessary to ensure that the PET barrels and beer spears remain sterile for a long time during the transportation to the brewery after the assembly is completed. The manufacturing and transportation packaging requirements of the PET barrels and beer spears are very high, which greatly increases the transportation cost.

[0004] Another option is for manufacturers of PET beer barrels to complete the blow molding of barrels and the assembly of beer spears in ordinary workshops. Before filling the beer, the inside of the barrel is cleaned and sterilized first, and then the beer is filled. In this way, there will be no hygiene requirements during transportation, which can greatly reduce transportation costs.

[0005] However, the disadvantage of the traditional beer spear structure is that the current beer spear assembly design has sanitary dead corners, which cannot be cleaned properly, and the barrel cannot be completely sanitary, which greatly shortens the shelf life of the beer.

[0006] Therefore, the utility model proposes an automatic sterilization device for the beer barrel mouth to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
