[0002] Beverage filling machine is a common and efficient filling equipment. Beverage filling machine injects beverage into container through filling head. The main components of beverage filling machine include filling head, conveyor belt and control system. Among them, the filling head is the core component, which is responsible for extracting beverage from storage tank and injecting it into container to realize filling operation.

[0003] However, since the conveyor belt mechanism is located below the filling head, liquid may drip onto the conveyor belt during simulated liquid discharge tests before filling, due to misoperation, machine failure or seal failure, causing contamination and hygiene problems. In addition, the filling nozzle is not convenient for the system to automatically discharge liquid directly according to whether the container is placed correctly or whether it has been dumped in the middle of the filling process, which makes the filling head prone to accidental liquid discharge.

[0019] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0020] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides a beverage filling machine, including a beverage filling machine body 1, a filling nozzle 2 with a liquid injection pump is fixed at the cylinder output end at the bottom of the beverage filling machine body 1, and a drip receiving mechanism is provided below the filling nozzle 2. The drip receiving mechanism includes a butt joint pipe 6, a guide round table 7 and a drip receiving tray 11. The butt joint pipe 6 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the filling nozzle 2, the guide round table 7 is fixed at the lower end of the butt joint pipe 6, and the drip receiving tray 11 is fixed at the lower end of the guide round table 7. A filling switching mechanism is provided inside, which includes a sealing circular plate 13, a first fixed seat 14, a telescopic slide rod 15, a return spring 16 and a valve opening pillar 20. The sealing circular plate 13 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the docking tube 6, the first fixed seat 14 is fixed on the inner wall of the docking tube 6, the telescopic slide rod 15 is slidably passed through the center of the upper end surface of the first fixed seat 14, the return spring 16 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic slide rod 15, and the valve opening pillar 20 is arranged above the sealing circular plate 13.

[0021] Further as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it is worth noting that a lifting guide groove 10 is provided on the inner wall of the filling nozzle 2 , a lifting slider 9 is slidably connected in the lifting guide groove 10 of the filling nozzle 2 , and one end of the lifting slider 9 is fixed on the outer surface of the docking pipe 6 .

[0022] Further as Figure 3 As shown, it is worth noting that a liquid flow gap is provided between the butt joint 6 and the filling nozzle 2, a drip receiving groove 12 is provided between the guide cone 7 and the inner wall of the drip receiving plate 11, and the guide cone 7 is provided directly below the liquid flow gap.

[0023] This solution has the following working process: before use, the liquid inlet 5 of the filling nozzle 2 is connected to the hose with the liquid injection pump. When in use, the cylinder at the bottom of the beverage filling machine body 1 drives the filling nozzle 2 and the drip receiving plate 11 to descend and approach the beverage receiving container. The drip receiving plate 11 relies on the return spring 16 to move upward for a stroke and press against the beverage receiving container. When the docking tube 6 rises toward the inside of the filling nozzle 2, the valve opening support 20 will generate a resistance force on the sealing circular plate 13. After being resisted, the sealing circular plate 13 slides along the inner cavity of the docking tube 6 and causes the return spring 16 to generate compression deformation. When the circular plate 13 moves to the middle position of the liquid supply port 17 of the docking tube 6, the sealing plate on the surface of the docking tube 6 cooperates with the sealing ring to block the lower end of the filling nozzle 2. At this time, the docking tube 6 and the filling nozzle 2 are sealed and connected to each other for filling beverages. Similarly, in the non-filling state, the sealing circular plate 13 blocks the upper end of the docking tube 6, and the liquid flow gap between the docking tube 6 and the filling nozzle 2 remains open. In this way, the opening and closing of the liquid flow gap can be automatically adjusted according to the filling activation state to achieve the purpose of selecting the liquid outlet channel, thereby reducing the trouble of the traditional filling nozzle 2 causing the container to tip over during the filling process and causing the beverage to spill onto the conveyor belt 4.

[0024] According to the above working process, it can be known that the opening and closing of the liquid flow gap can be automatically adjusted according to the filling activation state to achieve the purpose of selecting the liquid outlet channel, thereby reducing the trouble of the traditional filling nozzle 2 causing the container to tip over during the filling process and causing the beverage to spill onto the conveyor belt 4.

[0025] Further as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, it is worth noting that a liquid supply port 17 is provided on the inner wall of the butt joint 6, the upper end of the telescopic slide 15 is fixed to the center of the lower end surface of the sealing circular plate 13, and a second fixing seat 19 is fixed on the inner wall of the filling nozzle 2. The upper end surfaces of the second fixing seat 19 and the first fixing seat 14 are both provided with a leakage hole 18.

[0026] Further as Figure 4 As shown, it is worth mentioning that a drain port 8 is provided at the center of the lower end surface of the drip receiving tray 11, the upper end of the valve opening support 20 is fixed at the center of the lower end surface of the second fixing seat 19, and a liquid inlet 5 for connecting a liquid supply hose is provided on one side surface of the filling nozzle 2. The surface of the butt joint 6 is provided with a sealing ring for sealing the filling nozzle 2. During use, the liquid flow gap between the filling nozzle 2 and the butt joint 6 is above the drip receiving tray 11. In this way, when the liquid flow gap remains open, the liquid out of the filling nozzle 2 is received by the drip receiving tray 11, which can reduce the trouble of the conveyor belt 4 being contaminated by dripping during the filling test stage or failure stage of the filling nozzle 2.

[0027] Further as Figure 1As shown, it is worth noting that a machine table 3 is provided at the lower end of the beverage filling machine body 1 , and a conveyor belt 4 is provided at the upper part of the machine table 3 .

[0028] In summary, the opening and closing of the liquid flow gap can be automatically adjusted according to the filling activation state to achieve the purpose of selecting the liquid outlet channel, thereby reducing the trouble of the traditional filling nozzle 2 causing the beverage to spill onto the conveyor belt 4 due to the container tipping over during the filling process; when the liquid flow gap remains open, the liquid out of the filling nozzle 2 is received by the drip receiving tray 11, which can reduce the trouble of the conveyor belt 4 being contaminated by dripping during the filling test stage or failure stage of the filling nozzle 2.
