Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cups, and more specifically, to a cleaning device for producing plastic cups. Background Art

[0002] Plastic cups are very common drinking utensils in our daily life. Plastic cups are generally molded by an injection molding machine. During the injection molding process, the plastic melt may come into contact with the mold surface. The release agent, lubricant, foreign matter or plastic debris left over from the previous molding in the mold cavity may be adsorbed on the plastic cup. Therefore, the plastic cup needs to be cleaned before leaving the factory. Cleaning can also make the surface of the plastic cup smoother and more beautiful.

[0003] Many existing plastic cups are still cleaned manually by workers, and the cleaning efficiency is low. There are also some cleaning devices that can automatically clean plastic cups, but they can only clean the inner cavity of the plastic cup and cannot clean the outer wall of the plastic cup. For example, a cleaning device for sauce cup production with publication number CN219648325U is disclosed. This situation will affect the appearance of the product to a certain extent, or the company may need to clean the outer wall of the cup separately later, which is more troublesome.

[0004] Based on the above, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a cleaning device for plastic cup production to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] Furthermore, a support ring 26 is rotatably connected to the support frame 1 .

[0027] Working principle: When plastic cups need to be cleaned during production, a placement table is set at one end of the cleaning device, and the plastic cups with the bottoms facing up and neatly arranged are placed at the designated position on the placement table, or the cleaning device is installed at the discharge end of the conveyor belt of the previous process, and the plastic cups are moved toward the cleaning device with the bottoms facing up. A tool for collecting plastic cups at designated positions is set at the end of the conveyor belt, and the water inlet pipe 12 is connected to the external water supply equipment, and then the vacuum suction cup 5 is connected to the external vacuum equipment. It should be noted that the height of the conveyor belt and the placement table needs to be higher than the appropriate height of the cleaning table 2, so that the vacuum suction cup can grab cups of different quantities at different intervals.

[0028] Then, the movable plate 3 is driven down by the electric push rod 16 until the vacuum suction cup 5 contacts the bottom of the plastic cup and grabs it by suction. Then, the movable plate 3 is driven up by the electric push rod 16, and then the movable plate 3 is driven to move to the top of the cleaning table 2 by the servo linear module 14, and then the movable plate 3 is driven down. In this process, the slider 4 moves along the track of the driving groove through the slide rod 17, and the guide sections 20 with different inclination angles will drive multiple sliders 4 to spread out equidistantly until multiple plastic cups are respectively located above multiple cleaning grooves 6. Then, the multiple plastic cups are respectively sent into several cleaning grooves 6 along the track of the straight-down section 21 until the plastic cups abut against the support ring 16. At this time, the inner and outer walls of the plastic cups abut against the support tube 7 and the sponge brush on the mounting frame 8 respectively.

[0029] Then, the plastic cup is rinsed through the water inlet pipe 12, the water sprinkling port 10 on the support pipe 7 and the water sprinkling nozzle 11, and then the driving gear 23 is driven to rotate by the motor 22, and the driving gear 23 drives the driven gear 24 to rotate through a plurality of transmission gears 25, and the driven gear 14 drives the support pipe 7 and the support frame 1 to rotate, thereby rotating the sponge brush 9 to achieve the cleaning of the inner and outer walls of the plastic cup. The support ring 26 can prevent the rotating support frame 1 from scratching the plastic cup mouth. After the cleaning is completed, the plastic cup is driven by the driving mechanism to leave the cleaning tank 6 and is gathered and placed on the placement table or conveyor belt on the other side.

[0030] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
