DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0026] See also Figure 1 to Figure 7 As shown, the inverted flushing structure based on conveying and self-flipping includes a cleaning disc 1 and a rotating shell 2 installed in the cleaning disc 1 for annularly conveying bottles and making them self-flipping, a clamp 7 for fixing the bottles and a nozzle 8 for cleaning the bottles. The rotating shell 2 includes an inclined platform 3 as the rotation center of the rotating shell 2, a slide groove 4 for positioning and installing the clamp 7, a lifting plate 5 for driving the bottles to move up and down, and a flip ring 6 for driving the bottles to self-flip. The rotating shell 2 is arranged at the center of the cleaning disc 1, and the clamp 7 is installed in a ring array on the arc surface of the rotating shell 2. The nozzle 8 is installed in the cleaning disc 1 and is located between the rotating shell 2 and the disc wall of the cleaning disc 1. The inclined platform 3 is embedded with the rotating shell 2 and installed at the center of the cleaning disc 1. The slide groove 4 is arranged on the arc surface of the rotating shell 2 and is at the connection between the clamp 7 and the rotating shell 2. The lifting plate 5 is arranged on the clamp 7 and fits with the arc surface of the rotating shell 2. The flip ring 6 is installed between the lifting plate 5 and the clamp 7 and is in the slide groove 4.

[0027] The flushing structure transports the bottles in a circular manner by rotating the rotating shell 2 around the inclined platform 3, and controls the lifting and lowering of the clamp 7 in the slide 4 by the up and down movement of the lifting plate 5 on the inclined surface of the inclined platform 3, so that the bottle is close to and away from the spray head 8. At the same time, the clamp 7 is rotated with the displacement of the lifting plate 5 through the flip ring 6 to ensure that the bottle mouth is flipped and straightened during the up and down movement. When the bottle with the bottle mouth facing upward rotates half a circle around the center of the rotating shell 2, the bottle mouth is facing downward and aligned with the spray head 8 in the cleaning disk 1. After the spray head 8 cleans the bottle cavity and the bottle, it continues to rotate the rotating shell 2 half a circle, and then the bottle with the bottle mouth facing downward is turned over again so that the bottle mouth faces upward. During the straightening process, the cleaning liquid inside the bottle cavity is discharged by gravity, and the bottle is dried on the conveyor belt and disinfected with ultraviolet rays.

[0028] See also Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the lifting plate 5 is provided with a ring 51, a ball 52, and a connecting rod 53. The ball 52 is arranged on the inclined surface of the ramp 3, the ring 51 surrounds the outside of the ball 52, one end of the connecting rod 53 is connected to the ring 51, and the other end is connected to the lifting plate 5.

[0029] The ball 52 uses the inclined surface of the ramp 3 as a movement guide, and drives the displacement of the lifting plate 5 with its own gravity and the rotation of the rotating shell 2. The ring 51 is used to position the installation of the ball 52 to ensure that the ball 52 will not fall off the lifting plate 5. At the same time, the arc of the lifting plate 5 and the rotating shell 2 are the same, which prevents the lifting plate 5 from rotating around the connecting rod 53, ensuring that the lifting plate 5 only moves up and down in the slide groove 4.

[0030] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the flip ring 6 includes a gear 61, a rack 62 and a positioning groove 63. The gear 61 is coaxially connected to the flip ring 6. The positioning groove 63 is arranged on one side of the slide groove 4. The rack 62 is installed in the positioning groove 63 and meshes with the gear 61.

[0031] The turning ring 6 is passed through by the connecting rod 53 on the lifting plate 5. When the lifting plate 5 moves up and down, the turning ring 6 is driven to rotate by the engagement of the gear 61 and the rack 62, so that the clamp 7 rotates together with the turning ring 6. The positioning groove 63 is used to install the rack 62, and the length of the positioning groove 63 is greater than the length of the rack 62, so as to ensure that the clamp 7 can rotate intermittently to avoid continuous rotation and failure to turn over the bottle.

[0032] See also Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, the clamp 7 includes a rotating shaft 71, a support rod 72, a spring 73 and a clamp arm 74. The rotating shaft 71 is arranged on one side of the clamp 7 and is rotatably connected to the lifting plate 5. The support rod 72 is installed at both ends of the clamp 7. The clamp arm 74 is slidably installed on the support rod 72. The spring 73 is arranged between the clamp arm 74 and the clamp 7.

[0033] The rotating shaft 71 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 53 and fixed to the flip ring 6, so as to ensure that the clamp 7 can rotate with the flip ring 6 while being installed. The support rod 72 provides positioning for the movement of the clamp arm 74. The spring 73 is specifically a tension spring, which is used for the clamp 7 to spontaneously fix the bottle. At the same time, the clamp 7 is controlled by a signal to ensure that the bottle can be clamped or released on the conveyor belt for streamlined transportation.

[0034] See also Figure 1 to Figure 5 As shown, the nozzle 8 includes a base 81, a bracket 82 and a shower head 83. The base 81 is installed at the bottom of the nozzle 8 and is located on the upper surface of the cleaning tray 1. The bracket 82 is installed on the wall of the cleaning tray 1. The shower head 83 is installed on the top of the bracket 82.

[0035] The nozzle 8 sprays cleaning liquid into the bottle cavity to rinse the inside of the bottle. The base 81 is used to lift the nozzle 8 to prevent the nozzle 8 from being lower than the sewage height formed by the residual cleaning liquid in the cleaning tray 1, thereby affecting the cleaning effect. The bracket 82 is used to fix the shower head 83 to clean the bottom of the bottle body through the shower head 83.

[0036] See also Figure 1 to Figure 7 As shown, a vertical ultrasonic bottle washing machine includes a cleaning tank 9, a discharger 10, a ring frame 11, an ultrasonic generator 12 and the inverted flushing structure based on conveying self-flipping as described above. The cleaning tank 9 is arranged beside the cleaning plate 1, the discharger 10 is arranged on the top of the cleaning tank 9, the ring frame 11 is rotatably installed at the center of the cleaning tank 9, and the ultrasonic generator 12 is installed at the center of the ring frame 11.

[0037] The cleaning tank 9 is used for preliminary soaking and cleaning of bottles to remove impurities such as oil stains, the discharger 10 is used to add cleaning liquid to the bottle mouth, the ring frame 11 is used to transport the bottles in the cleaning tank 9 and ensure that each bottle is at the same distance from the ultrasonic generator 12, and the ultrasonic generator 12 causes the cleaning liquid inside the bottle cavity to vibrate to achieve the purpose of removing oil stains.

[0038] See also Figure 1 to Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning tank 9 includes a side wall 91, a platform 92, an induction plate 93 and a connecting pipe 94. The side wall 91 is arranged on the outside of the cleaning tank 9, the platform 92 is installed on the side wall 91, the induction plate 93 is arranged in the cleaning tank 9, one end of the connecting pipe 94 is connected to the induction plate 93, and the other end is connected to the discharger 10.

[0039] The side wall 91 is used to install the platform 92 and the discharger 10. The discharger 10 vertically adds cleaning liquid to the bottle mouth on the platform 92. The induction plate 93 faces the discharger 10. When the empty bottle passes through the induction plate 93, a signal is transmitted to the discharger 10 through the connecting tube 94 to control the addition of cleaning liquid to avoid wasting the cleaning liquid.

[0040] See also Figure 7 As shown, the ring frame 11 is provided with a rotating column 111, a bottle-pushing ring 112 and a retaining ring 113. The rotating column 111 is installed at the center of the ring frame 11 and passes through the cleaning tank 9 to stand on the ground. The bottle-pushing ring 112 is rotatably installed on the rotating column 111, and the retaining ring 113 is fixedly installed on the rotating column 111 and is located below the ring frame 11.

[0041] The rotating column 111 serves as the rotation center of the ring frame 11 and drives the bottle-moving ring 112 to rotate by rotating, thereby achieving the purpose of transporting bottles in the cleaning tank 9. The retaining ring 113 is used to sort the bottles so that they enter the cleaning tank 9 in an orderly manner. At the same time, the retaining ring 113 is also used to send the cleaned bottles to the conveyor belt, where the bottles are dried on the conveyor belt and sterilized by ultraviolet rays and other means. The drying and sterilization are carried out independently and can be turned on separately or in combination according to actual needs, so that the entire bottle washing machine can select three modes of drying only, sterilization only, and drying and sterilization for different bottles.

[0042] The above embodiments only express one or several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be based on the attached claims.
