[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] The present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Example 1

[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, a clamping and flushing mechanism of a bottle washing machine includes: a conveyor belt 1, two columns 11 are fixedly installed on the top of one end of the conveyor belt 1, a limit plate 12 is fixedly installed between the tops of the two columns 11, and a mounting plate 13 is provided on one side of the two columns 11; a clamping assembly, the clamping assembly is arranged above the conveyor belt 1, and is used to clamp and fix the bottles; the flushing assembly is arranged above the clamping cylinder 21, and is used to flush the bottles.

[0025] When cleaning bottles, the bottles are placed on the conveyor belt 1, which conveys the bottles to the washing area. The bottles are then clamped by the clamping assembly and turned upside down. High-pressure air is then sprayed through the washing assembly to wash the bottles under the action of the high-pressure airflow, thereby blowing off debris on the bottle walls.

[0026] Among them, a guide plate 4 is provided on the top of the two sides of the conveyor belt 1, and two adjustment plates 41 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two guide plates 4. The two adjustment plates 41 are detachably connected to the two sides of the top of the conveyor belt 1 through bolts.

[0027] When the bottles move on the conveyor belt 1, the two oppositely arranged guide plates 4 can correct the position of the bottles so that the bottles are on the same horizontal line to facilitate washing. The bolts fixing the adjustment plate 41 are loosened to release the fixation of the guide plates 4. The distance between the two guide plates 4 is adjusted according to the specifications of the bottles. Then the bolts of the adjustment plate 41 are tightened to fix the position of the adjustment plate 41. Example 2

[0028] On the basis of Example 1, the clamping assembly includes: a connecting part 2, a clamping cylinder 21, a connecting block 22, a splint 23 and a silicone strip 24. A connecting part 2 is provided above the conveyor belt 1. A clamping cylinder 21 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting part 2. The clamping arms at both ends of the clamping cylinder 21 are respectively fixedly connected to the connecting blocks 22. The two connecting blocks 22 are respectively fixedly installed on opposite sides with splints 23. The two splints 23 are respectively provided with silicone strips 24 on opposite sides. A three-axis cylinder 25 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting plate 13. The bottom end of the three-axis cylinder 25 is fixedly connected to a fixing part 26. A rotating cylinder 27 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing part 26. One end of the rotating cylinder 27 is connected to one side of the connecting part 2.

[0029] When clamping the bottle, first the three-axis cylinder 25 is started to drive the fixing part 26 to move downward, so that the two clamping plates 23 are located on both sides of the middle of the bottle body, and then the clamping cylinder 21 is started to drive the two clamping arms to move relative to each other, driving the two connecting blocks 22 to move, and the two connecting blocks 22 drive the two clamping plates 23 to move closer, so that the two silicone strips 24 clamp the bottle body. The silicone strips 24 can protect the bottle and prevent the bottle from being in rigid contact with the clamping plates 23, which may cause the bottle to break or scratch the surface. Then the three-axis cylinder 25 retracts and drives the clamping plates 23 and the bottle to move upward for a distance, and then the rotating cylinder 27 is started to drive the connecting part 2 to rotate 180°, and the connecting part 2 drives the two clamping plates 23 to flip, turning the clamped bottle upside down. After rinsing, the rotating cylinder 27 rotates 180° in the opposite direction to return to the initial position, so that the bottle is turned bottom down, and then the three-axis cylinder 25 is started to eject and place the bottle on the conveyor belt 1, and the rinsed bottle moves to the lower processing through the conveyor belt 1.

[0030] Among them, the model of the three-axis cylinder 25 is "cylinder TCM32x125S(0,)", the model of the rotary cylinder 27 is "cylinder HRQ30+()", and the model of the gripping cylinder 21 is "cylinder HFT25X40S(0)". Example 3

[0031] On the basis of Example 1, the flushing assembly includes: a mounting frame 3, a slide 31, a blower tube 32, an air pipe joint 33, a baffle 34 and a screw sleeve 35. A mounting frame 3 is provided above the clamping cylinder 21. A plurality of slides 31 are provided at the bottom of the mounting frame 3. Blower tubes 32 are respectively provided in the plurality of slides 31. The tops of the blower tubes 32 are fixedly connected to the air pipe joints 33. The outside of the blower tubes 32 is fixedly connected to the baffle 34. The outside of the air pipe joint 33 is threadedly connected to the screw sleeve 35. A cover plate 36 is provided on the top of the mounting frame 3. The cover plate 36 is detachably connected to the mounting frame 3 by bolts. Through holes 37 for allowing the air pipeline to pass through are respectively provided on the front and rear opposite sides of the mounting frame 3. An L-shaped plate 38 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame 3. The bottom of the L-shaped plate 38 is connected to the top of the connector 2.

[0032] Before use, the external air supply pipe is passed through the through-hole 37 and then connected to multiple air pipe joints 33 respectively. While clamping the bottle, the L-shaped plate 38 moves downward along with the connector 2 so that the blower tube 32 is just inserted into the bottle. After the bottle is inverted, the blower tube 32 blows air, and the ejected air flow flows along the inner wall of the bottle and then flows out from the bottle mouth, thereby removing the debris on the inner wall. When washing bottles of different specifications, the screw sleeve 35 can be loosened to release the fixation of the blower tube 32, and then the blower tube 32 is moved. The blower tube 32 moves in the slide groove 31. After moving to the appropriate position, the screw sleeve 35 is tightened and the mounting frame 3 is clamped with the baffle 34 to fix it to the bottom.

[0033] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own focus. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
