Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the fields of oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps, and in particular to a rotating drum to prevent small items from being stuck in the cleaning process. Background Technology
[0002] The oral liquid bottle cap industry primarily involves pharmaceutical packaging. These caps need to ensure excellent sealing to prevent liquid leakage and the entry of external substances, thereby guaranteeing the quality and safety of the medicine. They are mostly made of plastics, such as polypropylene, and some even include anti-counterfeiting designs. The cosmetic bottle cap industry, on the other hand, focuses more on the combination of aesthetics and functionality. In terms of materials, there are various choices, including plastic, glass, and metal. Plastic bottle caps are lightweight and come in a variety of shapes; glass bottle caps have a high-quality feel and are often used in high-end products; metal bottle caps have strong decorative appeal. Their design must be convenient for consumers to open and use, such as using multiple opening methods like push-button or flip-top, while also meeting product preservation needs, such as preventing oxidation and evaporation of cosmetics.
[0003] Cleaning the caps of oral liquids and cosmetics is essential. For oral liquid caps, cleaning removes dust, bacteria, and other contaminants from the production process, preventing them from entering the medicine and affecting its quality and safety. Cleaning cosmetic caps prevents residual chemicals and dust from affecting product quality and improves the tactile experience for consumers. However, some current cleaning drums often have transition rings to separate the liquids in the two drums. This can cause oral liquid and cosmetic caps to get stuck in the transition rings, preventing them from proceeding to the next cleaning step. This requires manual removal, which is cumbersome and impractical.
[0004] In response to this technical problem, this application proposes a rotating drum to prevent small objects from getting stuck during the cleaning process. Utility Model Content

This design aims to prevent oral liquids and cosmetic bottle caps from being trapped in the transition ring, allowing them to proceed to the next washing step, eliminating the hassle of manual removal, and improving the practicality of the rotating drum.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A rotating drum for preventing small items from getting stuck during the cleaning process includes two rotating drums for cleaning oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps. Each of the two rotating drums has a transition ring fixedly connected to an adjacent side to isolate liquids in the two drums. A circular ring is disposed between the two transition rings, and the transition ring is rotatably connected to one side of the circular ring. Two fixed rods are fixedly connected inside the circular ring. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the top of each of the two fixed rods, and a metal ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of each fixed rod. A round rod is rotatably connected inside the two metal rings. The rotating rod and the round rod are connected by a transmission assembly to drive the round rod to rotate. A brush for brushing the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps is connected to the outer wall of the round rod via a disassembly assembly, allowing the brush to be detached from the round rod.
[0008] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes pulleys fixedly connected to the right ends of the rotating rod and the round rod, and the two pulleys are connected by the inner side of a belt.
[0009] Furthermore, a gear is fixedly connected to the right end of the outer wall of the rotating rod, and multiple teeth are fixedly connected to the right side inside the transition ring on the right side, and the gear and teeth mesh with each other.
[0010] Furthermore, the disassembly assembly includes multiple grooves formed on the outer wall of the round rod, multiple snap-fit slots formed on one side of the brush, a first metal rod fixedly connected inside the grooves, and one side of the brush inserted into the inside of the round rod.
[0011] Furthermore, a second metal rod is fixedly connected inside the buckle groove, and a buckle plate is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the first metal rod, with one side of the buckle plate engaging with the outer wall of the second metal rod.
[0012] Furthermore, a baffle is slidably connected to one side of the inside of the buckle groove, and one end of the baffle is inserted into one side of the inside of the limiting groove.
[0013] Furthermore, the inside of the rotating cage is fixedly connected to a guide plate for guiding oral liquids and cosmetic bottle caps, and a drive device is externally connected to one side of the rotating cage.
[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. In this utility model, the rotating rod is driven to rotate by meshing teeth and gears, and the rotating rod drives the round rod to rotate by pulleys and belts, so that the brush rotates and sweeps the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps to prevent them from accumulating inside the transition ring and being unable to enter the next cleaning process.
[0016] 2. In this utility model, by snapping the buckle plate onto the second metal rod, the first metal rod and the second metal rod are connected to each other, thereby making the round rod and the brush more tightly fixed, and the baffle prevents the buckle plate from detaching from the second metal rod.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4This utility model provides an embodiment of a rotating drum to prevent small items from getting stuck during the cleaning process. It includes two rotating drums 1 for cleaning oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps. Each rotating drum 1 has a transition ring 3 fixedly connected to an adjacent side to isolate the liquid in the two drums 1. A circular ring 2 is provided between the two transition rings 3, and the transition ring 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the circular ring 2. Two fixed rods 6 are fixedly connected inside the circular ring 2. Rotating rods 7 are rotatably connected to the top ends of the two fixed rods 6, and metal rings 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the fixed rods 6. Circular rods 1 are rotatably connected inside the two metal rings 11. 0. A brush 9 for brushing oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps is connected to the outer wall of the round rod 10. Both the rotating rod 7 and the right end of the round rod 10 are fixedly connected to pulleys 8, which are connected by the inner side of a belt. The pulleys 8 and the belt cause the rotating rod 7 to drive the round rod 10 to rotate when it rotates. A gear 12 is fixedly connected to the right end of the outer wall of the rotating rod 7. Multiple teeth 5 are fixedly connected to the right side of the inner side of the right transition ring 3. The gear 12 and the teeth 5 mesh with each other, causing the transition ring 3 to rotate and drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate. (Refer to...) Figure 2 The inside of the rotating drum 1 is fixedly connected to a guide plate 4 for guiding oral liquids and cosmetic bottle caps, and a drive device is externally connected to one side of the rotating drum 1.
[0027] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The outer wall of the round rod 10 has multiple grooves, and one side of the brush 9 has multiple snap-fit slots. A first metal rod 13 is fixedly connected inside the grooves. One side of the brush 9 is inserted into the round rod 10. By inserting one side of the brush 9 into the round rod 10, the brush 9 is initially fixed in the round rod 10. A second metal rod 14 is fixedly connected inside the snap-fit slots. A snap-fit plate 15 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the first metal rod 13. One side of the snap-fit plate 15 is snapped onto the outer wall of the second metal rod 14. By snapping the snap-fit plate 15 onto the second metal rod 14, the first metal rod 13 and the second metal rod 14 are connected to each other, thereby making the round rod 10 and the brush 9 more tightly fixed. A baffle 16 is slidably connected to one side inside the snap-fit slot. One end of the baffle 16 is inserted into one side inside the limiting slot. By inserting one end of the baffle 16 into one side inside the limiting slot, the baffle blocks the snap-fit plate 15, thereby preventing the snap-fit plate 15 from detaching from the second metal rod 14.
[0028] Working principle: First, the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps to be cleaned are placed into the rotating drum 1. Then, the drive device is started to drive the rotating drum 1 to rotate the transition ring 3, thereby cleaning the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps. At this time, the circular ring 2 is fixed. When the rotating drum 1 rotates, the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps will slowly move into the transition ring 3 under the action of the guide plate 4. After the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps enter the transition ring 3, due to the multiple teeth 5 on the transition ring 3, the gear 12 is driven to rotate when the transition ring 3 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating rod 7 to rotate. Under the action of the pulley 8 and the belt, the rotating rod 7 drives the circular rod 10 to rotate when it rotates, thereby causing the brush 9 to rotate inside the transition ring 3, thereby sweeping the oral liquid and cosmetic bottle caps and preventing them from accumulating inside the transition ring 3 and being unable to enter the next cleaning process.
[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
