[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of inverted bottle sterilizing machines, in particular to a multi-channel inverted bottle conveying mechanism of an inverted bottle sterilizing machine. Background Art

[0002] At present, there are often phenomena of beverage bottles with excessive bacteria and quality changes in the market, while beverage producers have very good control over the quality of beverages. The problem mainly occurs in the bottle caps of beverage bottles. Usually, an inverted bottle sterilizer is used to sterilize the bottle caps of beverage bottles. The inverted bottle sterilizer is mainly used for hot filling of tea, juice and other beverages packaged in plastic bottles to sterilize the bottle mouth and the inner wall of the bottle cap that have not been sterilized or treated with high temperature.

[0003] Lactic acid bacteria beverages also use inverted bottle sterilizers to sterilize bottle caps, but existing inverted bottle sterilizers can only operate in a single channel with limited efficiency. The filling mechanism is also limited by the inverted bottle sterilization efficiency of the inverted bottle sterilizer, resulting in low overall processing efficiency. For this reason, we propose a multi-channel inverted bottle conveying mechanism for the inverted bottle sterilizer. Utility Model Content

[0016] The filled lactic acid bacteria bottles are sent to the upper end of the first belt conveyor. The lactic acid bacteria bottles are respectively located inside each channel of the limiting channel 1. The belt of the first belt conveyor transports the lactic acid bacteria bottles to the front side. When the lactic acid bacteria bottles reach the upper end of the arc-shaped bottle inversion channel, they fall and slide downward on the bottom wall of the arc-shaped bottle inversion channel. The lactic acid bacteria bottles turn 90° counterclockwise. The baffle 2 prevents the lactic acid bacteria bottles from turning clockwise due to excessive amplitude when falling, so that the bottle caps of the lactic acid bacteria bottles are all facing the rear side. Then, they are transported to the upper end of the limiting channel 3 by the belt of the second belt conveyor, fall and turn 90° clockwise at the same time, and the lactic acid bacteria bottles are erected. The distance between the lowermost end of the arc baffle and the upper surface of the belt of the third belt conveyor is 2mm higher than the height of the lactic acid bacteria bottle. The distance between the arc baffle and the bottom wall of the limiting channel three decreases from top to bottom, which guides the lactic acid bacteria bottle to fall while limiting the shaking amplitude of the lactic acid bacteria bottle. At the same time, the speed of the belt of the third belt conveyor is lower than that of the belts of other belt conveyors, which reduces the possibility of the lactic acid bacteria bottle falling onto the belt of the third belt conveyor and tipping over. The bottle turning and sterilization operations are performed simultaneously through multiple channels, which greatly improves the working efficiency of the multi-channel inverted bottle conveying mechanism of the inverted bottle sterilizer.

The lactic acid bacteria bottles enter the upper end of the first belt conveyor 1, and are respectively located inside each channel of the limiting channel 1 62. The belt of the first belt conveyor 1 transports the lactic acid bacteria bottles to the front side. When the lactic acid bacteria bottles reach the upper end of the arc-shaped bottle inversion channel 65, they fall down and slide downward on the bottom wall of the arc-shaped bottle inversion channel 65. The lactic acid bacteria bottles turn counterclockwise by 90°. The baffle 2 64 prevents the lactic acid bacteria bottles from turning clockwise due to excessive amplitude when falling, so that the bottle caps of the lactic acid bacteria bottles are all facing the rear side.

[0025] Bottle erecting mechanism 7: It is arranged at the upper end of the third belt conveyor 3, the upper end of the rear side of the bottle erecting mechanism 7 contacts the lower end of the front side of the bottle inverting mechanism 6, the bottle erecting mechanism 7 includes a fixed plate three 72, a limiting channel three 73 and a partition three 74, the left and right ends of the limiting channel three 73 are provided with evenly distributed fixed plates three 72, the left and right ends of the third belt conveyor 3 are provided with evenly distributed vertical plates three, the fixed plates three 72 are respectively connected to the adjacent vertical plates three by bolts, the interior of the limiting channel three 73 is provided with evenly distributed partition three 74, the upper end of the rear side of the limiting channel three 73 contacts the lower end of the front side of the limiting channel two 66, the partition three 74 corresponds to the front and rear positions of the partition two 69 respectively, the bottle erecting mechanism 7 includes an arc-shaped baffle plate 71, the front side surface of the upper end of the rear side of the limiting channel three 73 is provided with an arc-shaped baffle plate 71, the belt of the second belt conveyor 2 is transported to the upper end of the limiting channel three 73 and then falls down while clockwise The needle is flipped 90°, the lactic acid bacteria bottle is erected, the distance between the lowermost end of the arc baffle 71 and the upper surface of the belt of the third belt conveyor 3 is 2mm higher than the bottle height of the lactic acid bacteria bottle, and the distance between the arc baffle 71 and the bottom wall of the limiting channel three 73 decreases from top to bottom, while guiding the lactic acid bacteria bottle to fall, the shaking amplitude of the lactic acid bacteria bottle is limited. At the same time, the speed of the belt of the third belt conveyor 3 is lower than the speed of the belts of other belt conveyors, reducing the possibility of the lactic acid bacteria bottle falling to the belt of the third belt conveyor 3 and turning over. At the same time, because the lactic acid bacteria bottle slides downward on the bottom wall of the arc-shaped bottle inversion channel 65, there is an additional downward acceleration, and the lactic acid bacteria bottle that slides onto the belt of the second belt conveyor 2 has a larger distance between the adjacent lactic acid bacteria bottles that have not slid down from the rear side, which reduces the possibility of collision between two adjacent lactic acid bacteria bottles in the front and back during the falling of the limiting channel three 73.

[0026] Among them: it also includes a control box 8, a PLC controller 9 is arranged inside the control box 8, the input end of the PLC controller 9 is electrically connected to an external power supply, and the input ends of the motors of the first belt conveyor 1, the second belt conveyor 2 and the third belt conveyor 3 are all electrically connected to the output end of the PLC controller 9.

[0027] The working principle of the multi-channel inverted bottle conveying mechanism of the inverted bottle sterilizer provided by the utility model is as follows: the filled lactic acid bacteria bottle is sent to the upper end of the first belt conveyor 1, and the lactic acid bacteria bottle is respectively located inside each channel of the limiting channel 1 62, and the belt of the first belt conveyor 1 conveys the lactic acid bacteria bottle to the front side, and when the lactic acid bacteria bottle reaches the upper end of the arc-shaped inverted bottle channel 65, it falls and slides downward on the bottom wall of the arc-shaped inverted bottle channel 65, and the lactic acid bacteria bottle turns 90° counterclockwise, and the baffle plate 2 64 prevents the lactic acid bacteria bottle from turning clockwise due to excessive amplitude when falling, so that the bottle caps of the lactic acid bacteria bottle are all facing the rear side, and then it is conveyed to the upper end of the limiting channel 3 73 by the belt of the second belt conveyor 2, and then falls and turns 90° clockwise at the same time, and the lactic acid bacteria bottle is erected, and the lowermost end of the arc-shaped baffle plate 71 and the third baffle plate 74 are connected. The spacing between the upper surfaces of the belts of the belt conveyor 3 is 2 mm higher than the bottle height of the lactic acid bacteria bottle. The spacing between the arc-shaped baffle plate 71 and the bottom wall of the limiting channel three 73 decreases from top to bottom, thereby guiding the lactic acid bacteria bottle to fall while limiting the shaking amplitude of the lactic acid bacteria bottle. At the same time, the speed of the belt of the third belt conveyor 3 is lower than the speed of the belts of other belt conveyors, thereby reducing the possibility of the lactic acid bacteria bottle falling onto the belt of the third belt conveyor 3 and tipping over. At the same time, since the lactic acid bacteria bottle has an additional downward acceleration when sliding downward on the bottom wall of the arc-shaped bottle inverting channel 65, the lactic acid bacteria bottle that slides onto the belt of the second belt conveyor 2 has a larger spacing between the adjacent lactic acid bacteria bottles that have not slid down from the rear side, thereby reducing the possibility of collision between two adjacent lactic acid bacteria bottles in the front and rear during the falling process of the limiting channel three 73.

Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
