[0002] Orange wine is a fruit wine made from fermented oranges. It has a unique flavor and color and needs to be sealed and stored in special bottles. The bottles must also be thoroughly cleaned before being used to store the orange wine.

[0003] Therefore, a wine bottle cleaning device, with publication number CN220216127U, starts a drive motor, which powers two brushes to rotate simultaneously. At this time, the worker at station one takes out the wine bottles that have been soaking in the water tank for a period of time and inserts the bottle mouth into the brushes to clean the inner wall of the wine bottle. After cleaning, the wine bottles are placed in the placement slot of the wine bottle inverted rack. When the wine bottle inverted rack is full, the worker at station two opens the control valve to spray clean water from the rinsing nozzle to rinse the inner wall of the wine bottle again. After rinsing, the worker at station two takes the wine bottles out of the placement slot and puts them on the conveyor belt, which then transports them to the drying box for drying.

[0004] Existing technology requires manual intervention to remove the bottles from the water tank and place them on a brush for initial cleaning. The bottles are then removed from the brush and placed in an inverted rack for secondary cleaning. Finally, the cleaned bottles are transported on a conveyor belt. This manual intervention increases the actual cleaning cost, and relying on manual transfer of bottles poses a risk of them falling and breaking during the transfer process. Utility Model Content

[0021] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0022] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0023] like Figure 1-4As shown, a bottle cleaning device for orange wine production includes a movable frame 1 mounted on a conveyor belt. A hydraulic cylinder 15 is installed on one side of the movable frame 1. The telescopic end and the cylinder body end face of the hydraulic cylinder 15 are respectively fixed to the movable frame 1 and the surface of the conveyor belt. By extending and retracting the hydraulic cylinder 15, the bottles are positioned within the movable frame 1. The initial height of the movable frame 1 is adjusted according to the height of the bottles. Sliders 12 that move vertically are inserted into the inner walls of both sides of the movable frame 1. An electric push rod 13 is installed between the bottom edge of the slider 12 and the bottom edge of the movable frame 1. The slider 12 rises by extending the electric push rod 13. An electric telescopic rod 10 is rotatably connected to the side of block 12. A rotary motor 14, whose main shaft is connected to the cylinder end face of the electric telescopic rod 10, is fixedly connected to the side of block 12. The rotary motor 14 drives the electric telescopic rod 10 to rise and fall with the rise and fall of block 12, and also drives the electric telescopic rod 10 to rotate. In this solution, the rotary motor 14 is a servo motor. Two symmetrically arranged rotating handles 17 are rotatably connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 10. Anti-slip posts 11 are fixedly connected to the swing ends of the rotating handles 17. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 10 is U-shaped. The telescopic end of the 0 has several through holes 18 arranged in a circular array around the rotation point of the rotating handle 17. The rotating handle 17 is connected to the through holes 18 by a pin. By passing the pin through the through holes 18 and the rotating handle 17 at different positions, the included angle between the two rotating handles 17 can be adjusted. Therefore, the distance between the two anti-slip posts 11 at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 10 can be adjusted, making it easy to fit the surface of wine bottles of different sizes. Thus, by extending the electric telescopic rod 10, the anti-slip posts 11 can be moved to fit the surface of the wine bottle, thereby clamping the surface of the wine bottle. A rotating plate is rotatably connected to the bottom edge of the outer wall on one side of the movable frame 1. 4. A connecting cover 7 is fixedly connected to the other side of the top surface of the rotating plate 4. Several hollow tubes 8 and an L-shaped tube 5 extending into the connecting cover 7 are fixedly connected through the other side of the bottom surface of the rotating plate 4. The hollow tubes 8 are used to insert into the bottle mouth and are respectively used to introduce cleaning liquid, washing liquid and hot air. The hollow tubes 8 that introduce hot air are sprayed out by a built-in existing hot air fan. The outer wall of the hollow tube 8 and the top of the connecting cover 7 form a gap groove 9 for insertion into the bottle mouth. Under normal circumstances, the connecting cover 7 on the surface of the rotating plate 4 is located outside the movable frame 1. After being clamped and inverted inside the bottle, the rotating plate 4 rotates to the position shown in the image. Figure 1 As shown, the bottle is lowered to the surface of the hollow tube 8 by using the set gap groove 9. By repeatedly raising and lowering the bottle and rotating it with the turntable 4, the bottle is inserted into several hollow tubes 8 in sequence, so that the inside of the bottle can be cleaned, washed and dried in sequence. The set L-shaped tube 5 can ensure that the cleaning liquid, washing liquid and hot air are discharged along the L-shaped tube 5 when cleaning, washing and drying the inside of the bottle.

[0024] Additionally: A water pump 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom surface of the rotating plate 4. The water pump 3 has a three-way pipe 6 fixed to the outer wall of the movable frame 1 at its inlet end and a Y-shaped pipe 16 at its outlet end. One port of the three-way pipe 6 and the Y-shaped pipe 16 is connected to the water pump 3 at its inlet and outlet ends, respectively, while the other two ports have built-in switch valves. Two ports of the Y-shaped pipe 16 are connected to the bottom ports of two hollow tubes 8, respectively. The other two ports of the three-way pipe 6 are connected to the cleaning liquid tank and the cleaning water tank through flexible hoses, respectively. The other two ports of the Y-shaped pipe 16 are connected to two hollow tubes 8, thus facilitating the delivery of cleaning liquid or cleaning water into the wine bottle by the water pump 3. The water pump 3 is located above the rotation point of the rotating plate 4. An adjustment motor 2 for driving the rotation of the rotating plate 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable frame 1. The adjustment motors 2 are all common servo motors on the market. The adjustment motor 2 drives the rotating plate 4 to rotate, realizing the entry and exit of the hollow tubes 8 into and out of the movable frame 1.

[0025] Working principle: When the wine bottle moves on the conveyor belt and passes the movable frame 1, the two electric telescopic rods 10 inside the movable frame 1 extend, causing the two anti-slip posts 11 at the telescopic ends to move closer to the wine bottle until they clamp the surface of the wine bottle. Then, the electric push rod 13 extends, causing the slider 12 to drive the electric telescopic rods 10 to rise, thereby raising the wine bottle and removing it from the conveyor belt. Then, the rotary motor 14 drives the electric telescopic rods 10 to rotate, thereby making the wine bottle rotate synchronously to an inverted position. Then, the positioning motor 2 drives the rotating plate 4 to rotate until the hollow tube 8 connected to the cleaning liquid tank is aligned with the bottle mouth. Then, the slider 12 descends. The process involves lowering the bottle until its opening is inserted into the hollow tube 8. A switch valve controls the opening of the corresponding ports of the three-way tube 6 and the Y-shaped tube 16. Under the action of the water pump 3, the cleaning solution in the cleaning solution tank is sprayed out along the specific hollow tube 8 and applied to the inside of the bottle for cleaning. Then, the bottle rises, the turntable 4 rotates, and the bottle falls to connect with the hollow tube 8 connected to the cleaning water tank, thus cleaning the bottle. It then connects to the hollow tube 8 through which hot air is introduced to dry the inside of the bottle. Finally, the turntable 4 resets, the bottle returns to its original position, and it is lowered onto the conveyor belt, releasing the clamp on the bottle.

[0026] The wiring diagrams of the position adjustment motor 2, water pump 3, electric telescopic rod 10, electric push rod 13, and rotary motor 14 in this utility model are common knowledge in the field. Their working principles are known technologies. The appropriate model is selected according to actual use. Therefore, the control methods and wiring layouts of the position adjustment motor 2, water pump 3, electric telescopic rod 10, electric push rod 13, and rotary motor 14 will not be explained in detail.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
