Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of beverage processing equipment, and specifically relates to a bottle storage barrel based on lactic acid bacteria bottle preforms. Background Art
[0002] In the field of lactic acid bacteria fermentation and packaging, the storage and transportation of bottle preforms are indispensable links in the production process. However, the existing bottle storage technologies have exposed a series of drawbacks in practical applications. These drawbacks not only affect the production efficiency but also increase the production cost and operation complexity.
[0003] First of all, the existing bottle storage barrel designs often lack flexibility. Their structures are fixed and difficult to adapt to bottle preforms of different specifications and shapes, resulting in the need to replace the entire bottle storage barrel when changing the type of bottle preform, increasing the cost and time of equipment replacement. In addition, the inlet and outlet openings of the bottle storage barrel are often not reasonably designed, easily causing jams and damages to the bottle preforms during the inlet and outlet processes, affecting the integrity and aesthetics of the products.
[0004] Secondly, the traditional bottle storage barrel lacks an effective control mechanism during the transportation of bottle preforms. It often relies on gravity or simple mechanical devices for transportation. This transportation method is not only inefficient but also easily causes accumulation and chaos of bottle preforms, increasing the difficulty of subsequent processing. At the same time, due to the lack of effective isolation and protection measures, the bottle preforms are easily contaminated and damaged during transportation, affecting the hygiene and quality of the products.
[0005] In summary, the bottle storage barrels in the existing technologies have deficiencies in terms of structural design, transportation control, rotating mechanism, and environmental adaptability, and are difficult to meet the actual needs of lactic acid bacteria fermentation and packaging production. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of bottle storage barrel based on lactic acid bacteria bottle preforms to solve the drawbacks in the existing technologies and improve the production efficiency and product quality. Content of the Utility Model

The new bottle storage barrel can easily adapt to preforms of different specifications and shapes, and can meet diverse production requirements without replacing the entire bottle storage barrel. This greatly reduces the cost and time of equipment replacement and improves production flexibility. Through the reasonably designed bottle inlet and bottle outlet structures, it ensures the smooth passage of the preforms during entry and exit, reducing the risk of jamming and damage.

[0024] Unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific situations.
[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 , a bottle storage barrel based on lactic acid bacteria bottle preforms provided by the present utility model, includes a barrel body 1. An inlet bottle mouth 2 is opened at the upper end of the barrel body 1, an outlet bottle mouth 3 is opened on the side wall, a rotating mechanism 4 is provided at the bottom of the barrel body 1, and a plurality of conveying supports 5 are arranged in sequence above the rotating mechanism 4 on the inner wall. When the rotating mechanism 4 rotates, the conveying supports 5 send the bottle preforms out from the outlet bottle mouth 3. A support leg 6 is provided below the barrel body 1, and an observation window 7 is also opened on the side wall.
[0026] Please refer to Figure 2, where the barrel body 1 is composed of a bottom plate 11, a side plate 12, and a top plate 13. The bottom plate 11 serves as the supporting foundation. The side plate 12 is vertically arranged around the bottom plate 11 to form the main framework of the barrel body. The top plate 13 covers the upper part of the side plate 12 to ensure a closed storage environment for the preforms. The top plate 13 adopts a split design, including a middle plate 131 and multiple edge plates 132. The middle plate 131 is located at the center of the top plate, and the edge plates 132 are arranged around the middle plate 131 and fixed by bolts or other detachable connection methods. This design facilitates local maintenance or replacement of the top plate. The inlet opening 2 is opened on the middle plate 131 of the top plate 13 for putting the lactic acid bacteria preforms into the barrel body. The size of the inlet opening 2 needs to be designed according to the size of the preforms to ensure that the preforms can enter smoothly.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 3 , the rotating mechanism 4 is located at the bottom of the barrel body 1 and includes a base 41, a driving mechanism 42, and a tray 43. The base 41 is fixed on the bottom plate 11. The driving mechanism 42, such as a motor or a reducer, is installed inside the base 41. The driving end of the driving mechanism 42 is connected to the tray 43 through components such as bearings. The edge of the tray 43 is in close contact with the inner wall of the barrel body 1 to ensure stability during the rotation process. The surface of the tray 43 can be designed with anti-slip textures or grooves to increase the friction with the preforms and prevent the preforms from slipping during the rotation process.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 4 , the conveying brackets 5 are evenly distributed along the inner wall of the barrel body 1 and are located above the rotating mechanism 4. Each conveying bracket 5 is composed of a vertical plate 51, a guiding inclined plate 52, and a stop baffle 53. The lower end of the vertical plate 51 is a plane and is in contact with the tray 43, and the upper end is an inclined plane to facilitate the guiding of the preforms. The guiding inclined plate 52 is fixed at the upper inclined plane of the vertical plate 51, and its inclination angle is optimized according to the shape and weight of the preforms to ensure that the preforms can smoothly slide towards the outlet opening 3. The surface of the guiding inclined plate 52 can also be designed with anti-slip textures. The stop baffle 53 is connected to the upper end of the guiding inclined plate 52 to prevent the preforms from flying out of the barrel body due to inertia during the sliding out process. The height and position of the stop baffle 53 need to be precisely adjusted according to the size of the preforms and the outlet speed. To ensure that the preforms do not collide or jam with each other during the rotation process, the distance between adjacent conveying brackets 5 should be greater than or equal to the diameter of the preforms to facilitate the smooth delivery of the preforms.
[0029] Working principle:
[0030] After the lactic acid bacteria preforms are put into the barrel body 1 through the inlet opening 2, the driving mechanism 42 is started to drive the tray 43 and the preforms above it to rotate slowly. As the rotation progresses, the preforms slide along the guiding inclined plate 52 of the conveying bracket 5 towards the outlet opening 3 under the action of gravity and centrifugal force, and finally are stably discharged through the limiting action of the stop baffle 53. During the whole process, each component works together to achieve the efficient and orderly storage and transportation of the lactic acid bacteria preforms.
[0031] The above content is a further detailed description of the present utility model in combination with specific preferred embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present utility model is only limited to these descriptions. For those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present utility model pertains, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several simple deductions or substitutions can still be made, and all should be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the present utility model.
