Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of bottle making equipment, and particularly relates to bottle washing equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the winemaking industry, once brewed, wine needs to be bottled, sealed, and then shipped for sale. Wineries use both new and recycled bottles to hold their wine. However, for the health and safety of consumers, both new and used bottles must be disinfected, sterilized, and cleaned to ensure they meet hygienic and usable requirements.

[0003] Before bottling liquor, the bottles must be cleaned. Traditional bottle cleaning devices are cumbersome and require manual effort, making them inefficient, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Most bottle washers on the market use a combination of manual and mechanical cleaning, or use a machine to directly spray water on a large number of bottles. While this cleaning method is simple and convenient, in practice, it can lead to issues such as incomplete cleaning and poor efficiency.

[0004] For example, a wine bottle cleaning device for liquor production with announcement number CN214767647U, the servo motor drives the first disc to rotate, thereby driving the wine bottle body to rotate, the bristles clean the inner wall of the wine bottle body, and the cleaning pump pumps the cleaning liquid in the liquid storage tank into the cavity through the infusion tube, shunt tube and connecting tube, and finally sprays it out from the through hole, and cooperates with the bristles to clean the inner wall of the wine bottle body.

[0005] As the applicant conducted further research, it was found that since the position of the bristles in this technical solution is fixed during the cleaning process, the cleaning of the inner wall of the wine bottle is completed by driving the wine bottle to rotate. The cleaning effect is general and the outer wall of the wine bottle cannot be cleaned, which has certain limitations. Utility Model Content

[0032] like Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, a bottle washing device of the present invention includes a frame 1, a rotating roller 2, a cylindrical brush 3 and a pushing component;

[0033] Among them, a bottle inlet channel 10 is provided on the top of the frame 1;

[0034] The rotating rollers 2 are connected in pairs in parallel to the front side of the frame 1;

[0035] The cylindrical brush 3 is arranged on the upper part of the rotating roller 2, and the cylindrical brush 3 is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the rotating roller 2; the cylindrical brush 3 can be provided with a water spray head connected to an external water source.

[0036] The pushing assembly is connected to the frame 1 and acts on the tail of the bottle 7, pushing the bottle 7 along the direction set by the rotating roller 2, and is cleaned by the cylindrical brush 3;

[0037] The frame 1 is connected to a motor 4 that provides power to the pushing assembly, and the rotating roller 2 is connected to the motor 4 through a first transmission unit 41;

[0038] An independently arranged rotatable cylindrical brush 3 is used, and a pushing assembly is used to push the bottles 7 in the bottle inlet channel 10 one by one to the bottom of the cylindrical brush 3, and the bottles slide down from the bottle guide box 11 and are collected. During the movement and cleaning process of the bottles 7, the bristles on the cylindrical brush 3 clean the outer walls of the bottles 7, and the bottles 7 are driven to spin by the rotation of the rotating roller 2. The bottles 7 are cleaned more evenly and thoroughly by the cylindrical brush 3, and less impurities remain on the surface.

[0039] The pushing assembly includes a slider 5 that can move along the top of the frame 1 and a connecting rod mechanism 6 connected to the slider 5. The connecting rod mechanism 6 is connected to the motor 4 through the second transmission unit 42. The front end of the slider 5 is connected to a push rod 60 that acts on the tail of the bottle body 7.

[0040] The top of the frame 1 has a slideway 61 with an I-shaped cross section, and the slider 5 cooperates with the slideway 61. This arrangement allows the push rod 60 to move steadily and smoothly.

[0041] In order to reduce the impact of the push rod 60 on the rear end of the bottle body 7 and avoid damage to the bottle body 7, an elastic push head 600 is connected to the front end of the push rod 60. Specifically, the elastic push head 600 can be made of rubber.

[0042] Specifically, the connecting rod mechanism 6 includes a rocker 62 movably connected to the frame 1 and the slider 5, and a crank 63 connected to the second transmission unit 42. The rocker 62 is provided with a runway-shaped through hole 620, and the end of the crank 63 has a protrusion 630 that matches the runway-shaped through hole 620. After the pushing assembly is acted upon by the motor 4, the push rod 60 moves back and forth along the direction set at the top of the frame 1.

[0043] The pushing component is combined with the rotating roller 2. The bottle body 7 does not need to stay while being cleaned by the cylindrical brush 3, and the cleaning efficiency is high. In addition, multiple bottles 7 are placed one by one in the bottle inlet channel 10. After the bottle body 7 at the bottom is pushed away for cleaning, the bottle body 7 at the upper side falls due to its own gravity. The pushing component adopts the form of a connecting rod mechanism 6, which can realize the intermittent pushing of the bottle body 7, and is combined with the bottle inlet channel 10 to realize the cyclic cleaning of the bottle body 7.

[0044] Among them, the first transmission unit 41 includes a gear assembly connected to the motor 4, and the end of the rotating roller 2 is connected to a driven gear that cooperates with the gear assembly. The two rotating rollers 2 rotate in the same direction. The use of the gear assembly can, on the one hand, reduce speed and increase torque, and on the other hand, realize the same-direction rotation of the cylindrical brush 3. When the bottle body 7 is between the two rotating rollers 2, the axes of the three are parallel, and the bottle body 7 rotates under the action of friction.

[0045] The second transmission unit 42 includes a transmission shaft and a bevel gear connected to the motor 4. The second transmission unit 42 can transmit the power of the motor 4 to the connecting rod mechanism 6. The structure of the transmission shaft and the bevel gear can be adopted to change the direction of power transmission. In this way, the design and installation position of the connecting mechanism can be adjusted, and the flexibility is good.

[0046] In order to increase the cleaning effect, the cylindrical brushes 3 are provided in at least two groups, and the cylindrical brushes 3 adopt independent driving sources.

[0047] A bottle guide box 11 is provided on one side of the frame 1 close to the cylindrical brush 3. The bottle guide box 11 is tilted, and a collection box or a transfer device can be placed on the side of the bottle guide box 11 for subsequent treatment and processing.

[0048] The above are only embodiments of the present invention. Common knowledge such as the known specific structures and characteristics in the scheme is not described in detail here. Ordinary technicians in the relevant field are aware of all common technical knowledge in the technical field of the utility model before the application date or priority date, can obtain all existing technologies in the field, and have the ability to apply conventional experimental means before that date. Ordinary technicians in the relevant field can improve and implement this scheme based on their own abilities under the guidance of this application. Some typical known structures or methods should not become obstacles for ordinary technicians in the relevant field to implement this application. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the structure of the utility model, they can also make several variations and improvements, which should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the utility model. These will not affect the effect of the implementation of the utility model and the practicality of the patent.
