[0015] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0016] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" in this application are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be understood as indicating or suggesting relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include steps or units that are not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units that are inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.
[0017] See Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, the cleaning device 100 includes a cleaning box 110 , an installation assembly 120 , a cleaning mechanism 140 , a liquid inlet pipe 130 , and a first driving mechanism 150 .
[0018] The cleaning box 110 has a cleaning chamber 111 formed therein and an opening 112 on the top thereof that communicates with the cleaning chamber 111. Specifically, the sampling spoon 10 enters the cleaning chamber 111 from the opening 112 and is then cleaned in the cleaning chamber 111.
[0019] The mounting assembly 120 is disposed in the cleaning chamber 111 and includes a mounting base 121. The mounting base 121 is provided with a plurality of through holes 122. The through holes 122 are used to hang the sampling spoon 10. Specifically, after the sampling spoon 10 enters the cleaning chamber 111 from the opening 112, it passes through the through holes 122 and is hung on the mounting base 121. Figure 2 The sampling spoon 10 has a stopper 13 on its handle 11, allowing the head 12 of the sampling spoon 10 to pass through the through-hole 122 on the mounting base 121. However, the stopper 13 on the handle 11 of the sampling spoon 10 cannot pass through the through-hole 122, thereby allowing the sampling spoon 10 to be suspended and fixed on the mounting base 121. It is understood that the number of sampling spoons 10 suspended by the mounting base 121 is less than or equal to the number of through-holes 122.
[0020] A cleaning mechanism 140 is disposed within the cleaning chamber 111 and communicates with the liquid inlet conduit 130 , and is used to clean the sampling spoon 10 with a cleaning agent. The liquid inlet conduit 130 is disposed outside the cleaning tank 110 and communicates with the cleaning mechanism 140 , for supplying the cleaning agent to the cleaning mechanism 140 Specifically, the cleaning agent flows through the liquid inlet conduit 130 , then into the cleaning mechanism 140 , and finally out through the cleaning mechanism 140 , cleaning the sampling spoon 10 suspended on the mounting base 121 .
[0021] The first driving mechanism 150 is connected to the mounting seat 121, and is used to drive the mounting seat 121 to move up and down in the cleaning chamber 111 when the cleaning mechanism 140 cleans the sampling spoon 10, thereby ensuring that the cleaning mechanism 140 can clean multiple positions of the sampling spoon 10, ensuring the cleanliness of the cleaning, and also improving the cleaning efficiency.
[0022] After the sampling spoon 10 is cleaned, the sampling spoon 10 is removed from the opening 112. The sampling spoon 10 can be taken out by a robot, thereby further realizing automation and improving work efficiency, and also effectively preventing the sampling spoon 10 from being contaminated during the taking process.
[0023] In one embodiment, after the sampling spoon 10 is cleaned, it is sterilized and dried. During the sterilization process, high-temperature steam is delivered to the cleaning mechanism 140 via the liquid inlet pipe 130. The cleaning mechanism 140 then delivers high-temperature steam to the cleaning chamber 111. The temperature of the high-temperature steam can range from 100°C to 140°C. Of course, in other facilities, other sterilization media can also be used. During the drying process, hot air is delivered to the cleaning mechanism 140 via the liquid inlet pipe 130. The cleaning mechanism 140 then delivers hot air to the cleaning chamber 111 to dry the sampling spoon 10.
[0024] Continue reading Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, the mounting assembly 120 further includes a fixing block 123 , a guide column 124 , and a slider 125 .
[0025] The fixing block 123 is fixed on the inner wall of the cleaning box 110 and is used to fix the position of the guide column 124 so that the position of the guide column 124 is determined and will not deviate.
[0026] The guide post 124 is connected to the fixing block 123 and extends in the vertical direction. The slider 125 is mounted on the periphery of the guide post 124 and can move along the extension direction of the guide post 124. The guide post 124 passes through the slider 125, and the slider 125 can move up and down along the guide post 124. At the same time, the slider 125 is connected to the mounting seat 121 and can drive the mounting seat 121 to move up and down along the extension direction of the guide post 124, thereby ensuring the stability of the movement of the mounting seat 121 and limiting the movement direction of the mounting seat 121.
[0027] In other words, the arrangement of the fixing block 123 , the guide post 124 , and the sliding block 125 can ensure the smooth operation of the mounting seat 121 .
[0028] Continue reading Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, the first drive mechanism 150 includes a first cylinder 151. The main body 152 of the first cylinder 151 is located outside the cleaning tank 110, and the output shaft 153 passes through the cleaning tank 110 and enters the cleaning chamber 111. The main body 152 located outside the cleaning tank 110 avoids occupying space within the cleaning tank 110 and prevents the cleaning agent from damaging the main body 152. The output shaft 153 can also reciprocate, extending and retracting, thereby driving the mounting base 121 to reciprocate up and down within the cleaning tank 110.
[0029] Continue reading Figure 1 The cleaning device 100 further includes a connecting rod 154, which is located within the cleaning tank 110 and connects the output shaft 153 of the first cylinder 151 to the mounting base 121. Specifically, the output shaft 153 of the first cylinder 151 is connected to the mounting base 121 via the connecting rod 154, so that the mounting base 121 performs a reciprocating upward and downward motion under the drive of the first cylinder 151. It will be understood that the extension direction of the output shaft 153 of the first cylinder 151 is consistent with the extension direction of the guide post 124.
[0030] Continue reading Figure 1In one embodiment of the present application, the cleaning mechanism 140 includes at least one spray element 20. The spray element 20 is disposed in the cleaning chamber 111 and communicates with the liquid inlet conduit 130. The height of the spray element 20 relative to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 111 is no lower than the height of the sampling spoon 10 relative to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 111. The spray element 20 is used to spray cleaning agent to clean the sampling spoon 10. Specifically, the height of the spray element 20 relative to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 111 is no lower than the height of the bottom of the sampling spoon 10 relative to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 111, thereby enabling the spray element 20 to spray cleaning agent onto the sampling spoon 10, thereby cleaning the sampling spoon 10. The spraying of the sampling spoon 10 by the spray element 20 allows for more uniform cleaning of the sampling spoon 10 at a higher pressure, ensuring a high degree of cleanliness. In one embodiment, in order to ensure that the sampling spoon 10 is cleaned thoroughly, the height of the spray member 20 relative to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 111 is not lower than the height of the top of the sampling spoon 10 relative to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 111, thereby ensuring that the entire sampling spoon 10 can be sprayed with cleaning agent, ensuring that the sampling spoon 10 is cleaned thoroughly.
[0031] It should be noted that the cleaning method of the cleaning mechanism 140 of the present application is not limited, as long as the cleaning mechanism 140 can spray the cleaning agent to clean the sampling spoon 10.
[0032] In one embodiment, there are multiple spray elements 20, which are distributed on both sides of the mounting seat 121 and are all distributed between the mounting seat 121 and the side wall of the cleaning box 110. In this embodiment, the cleaning mechanism 140 also includes a spray pipe 131 connected to the liquid inlet pipe 130. The spray elements 20 distributed on one side of the mounting seat 121 are arranged in multiple rows distributed vertically, and the spray elements 20 distributed in the same row are connected to the same spray pipe 131. Specifically, the multiple spray elements 20 distributed on both sides of the mounting seat 121 can clean the sampling spoon 10 from multiple angles. At the same time, the spray elements 20 distributed on one side of the mounting seat 121 are arranged in multiple rows distributed vertically, which ensures that every position of the sampling spoon 10 can be cleaned during the up and down movement of the mounting seat 121, thereby ensuring a high degree of cleanliness.
[0033] In this embodiment, the spray elements 20 are not directly connected to the liquid inlet pipe 130, but are connected to the liquid inlet pipe 130 through the spray pipe 131. Moreover, the spray elements 20 in the same row are connected to the same spray pipe 131, which can reduce the number of spray pipes 131 and thus reduce equipment costs.
[0034] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the cleaning mechanism 140 may not include the spray pipe 131 . In this case, the spray element 20 may be provided to be directly connected to the liquid inlet pipe 130 .
[0035] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the liquid inlet pipe 130 includes multiple sub-pipes 132 and a collecting sub-pipe 133. The collecting sub-pipe 133 has a liquid inlet 134. The sub-pipes 132 connect the spray pipe 131 at the same height in the cleaning tank 110 with the collecting sub-pipe 133. In other words, after entering the collecting sub-pipe 133 through the liquid inlet 134, the cleaning agent flows into the multiple sub-pipes 132 and then flows into the spray pipes 131 corresponding to the sub-pipes 132. It is then sprayed through the spray element 20 to clean the sampling spoon 10.
[0036] In one embodiment, each of the plurality of sub-pipes 132 is provided with an on-off valve (not shown), which can conveniently control the flow of liquid, gas, etc. in the plurality of sub-pipes 132. In one specific embodiment, the on-off valve can be a cleaning and sterilization pipeline valve, which can be regularly cleaned to remove accumulated dirt and residue, thereby keeping the pipeline unobstructed and clean.
[0037] See Figure 4 The cleaning device 100 further includes an adapter flange 40. The adapter flange 40 is sleeved on the periphery of each of the plurality of sub-pipes 132 to connect to the spray pipe 131 through the adapter flange 40. The adapter flange 40 can be used to realize the disassembly and assembly between the sub-pipes 132 and the spray pipe 131, making it convenient to replace the sub-pipes 132.
[0038] In one embodiment, the spraying member 20 includes a rotatable spraying ball 21. Figure 5 The spray ball 21 includes a fixed column 22 and a rotating spray head 23. The fixed column 22 is used to connect to the spray pipe 131. The rotating spray head 23 can rotate at high speed and spray gas or liquid under the action of gas or liquid, thereby improving the uniformity of the spray. In other embodiments, the spray element 20 can also be a nozzle.
[0039] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the cleaning device 100 further includes a tank cover 160, a second drive mechanism 170, and a sealing ring 161. The tank cover 160 is used to cover the opening 112. The second drive mechanism 170 is disposed outside the cleaning tank 110 and is used to control the movement of the tank cover 160 to open or close the opening 112. The sealing ring 161 is disposed at the opening 112 of the cleaning tank 110 and is sealed to the tank cover 160.
[0040] Specifically, the second drive mechanism 170 can open the box cover 160 and the opening 112 so that the sampling spoon 10 can be removed from the opening 112. At the same time, the second drive mechanism can close the box cover 160 and close the opening 112 to prevent the cleaning agent from being sprayed outside the cleaning box 110 during the cleaning process. At the same time, the sealing ring 161 can improve the sealing performance of the cleaning device 100 and reduce air contamination of the sampling spoon 10.
[0041] Continue reading Figure 6 In one embodiment of the present application, one end of the box cover 160 is movably connected to the washing box 110, and the second driving mechanism 170 includes a second cylinder 171. The output shaft 172 of the second cylinder is connected to the other end of the box cover 160 to drive the other end of the box cover 160 toward or away from the washing box 110, thereby opening and closing the box cover 160. In other words, the second cylinder 171 is used to open the box cover 160 in a flip-up manner.
[0042] See Figure 1 In one embodiment, the cleaning device 100 further includes a drainage pipe 180 , which is disposed outside the cleaning box 110 , connected to the bottom of the cleaning box 110 and connected to the cleaning chamber 111 , and can discharge liquid, gas, etc. in the cleaning chamber 111 .
[0043] like Figure 7 The present application also includes a second technical solution, a cleaning system 200, comprising any of the above cleaning devices 100. The specific structure of the cleaning device 100 can be found in the above related content and will not be described in detail here.
[0044] In one embodiment, in a cleaning system 200 , the number of cleaning devices 100 is at least two, for example, the number of cleaning devices 100 is two, three or more, and the multiple cleaning devices 100 are independent of each other and do not affect each other.
[0045] When the cleaning system 200 cleans the sampling spoons 10, the first cleaning device 100 is first loaded with the contaminated sampling spoons 10. The first cleaning device 100 then cleans, sterilizes, and dries the contaminated sampling spoons 10, and then takes out a clean sampling spoon 10. After use, the clean sampling spoons 10 are placed in the second cleaning device 100. This ensures that the used sampling spoons 10 do not contaminate other clean sampling spoons 10, and the used sampling spoons 10 are placed in the cleaning device 100 in a timely manner to prevent environmental pollution. Finally, until all the used sampling spoons 10 in the first cleaning device 100 are used up and all the used sampling spoons 10 are placed in the second cleaning device 100, the second cleaning device 100 will then clean, sterilize, and dry the sampling spoons 10, and so on.
[0046] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present application and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
