Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage filling equipment technology, and in particular to a quantitative filling device for fruit beverages. Background Technology
[0002] Fruit juice is a liquid product obtained from fruits through physical methods such as pressing, centrifugation, and extraction. As fruit juice beverages become increasingly popular, their production is receiving more and more attention. With societal development, more and more equipment is being used to produce fruit juice beverages. In the bottling process, quantitative filling devices are used to ensure accurate filling.
[0003] Existing quantitative filling devices for juice processing are generally not suitable for different sized bottles and cannot effectively prevent bottles from tipping over, thus reducing their applicability. In addition, the distance between the filling port and the bottle of existing quantitative filling devices for juice processing is mostly fixed. If the distance is too far, inaccurate filling may cause juice to flow outside and cause waste; if the distance is too close, it is inconvenient for staff to pick up the bottles, making it inconvenient to use.
[0004] A utility model patent with publication number CN 219792469 U and publication date of October 3, 2023, discloses a quantitative filling device for juice processing, including a workbench, a storage tank on the top of the workbench, an adjustment frame on one side of the storage tank, a guide hole on one side of the adjustment frame, an adjustment component in the guide hole, a movable block movably connected to the outer periphery of the adjustment component, and a connecting rod fixedly connected to one side of the movable block;
[0005] This utility model can quickly and stably fix filling bottles of different sizes, avoiding the phenomenon of the filling bottles tipping over during filling, improving its stability and applicability. At the same time, the distance between the filling mechanism and the filling bottle can be controlled by the adjustment component, which can not only make the filling accurate and avoid the juice flowing to the outside and causing waste, but also make it easier for staff to pick up and put down the filling bottles, making it more convenient to use.
[0006] However, while solving one problem, this patent has created a new one: during the filling process, the micro water pump is placed inside the storage tank to deliver the beverage to the filling head. However, after the micro water pump is placed inside the storage tank for a long time, bacteria can easily grow in the corners of some structures that are not cleaned. In addition, some impurities such as lubricating oil from the micro water pump components may also be mixed into the beverage. Therefore, this structural design poses a significant hygiene and safety problem. Utility Model Content

A mounting frame 12 is connected to the guide frame 9. A first waist hole 13 is provided on the mounting frame 12 along the length direction. Two dispensers 14 are installed on the mounting frame 12 through the first waist hole 13. The dispensers 14 are connected to the liquid guide tube 16 through a liquid guide hose 15. During filling, the first drive cylinder 8 drives the dispensers 14 on the mounting frame 12 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the dispensers 14 and the distance between the two dispensers 14. This is suitable for filling beverage bottles 33 of different heights. In order to improve the stability of the movement of the dispensers 14, a guide plate 11 is provided on the guide frame 9, and a guide block 10 is provided on the support rod 3 at the position corresponding to the guide plate 11.
[0033] Furthermore, a vacuum pump 6 is installed on the support frame 1, and an air pipe 7 is installed between the vacuum pump 6 and the storage tank 4. During filling, the vacuum pump 6 uses the air pipe 7 to pressurize the storage tank 4. Then, the beverage in the storage tank 4 will enter the liquid guide pipe 16 from the liquid inlet plate 17 under pressure, and finally reach the dispenser 14. During this process, the power to dispense the beverage comes from the pressure of the vacuum pump 6 on the storage tank 4. There is no need for the water pump to be directly immersed in the beverage, thereby avoiding direct contact between the beverage and the water pump, preventing the growth of bacteria in the water pump, and improving the hygiene of the entire device.
[0034] Furthermore, the conveyor frame 2 includes a conveyor belt 20 and a baffle arm 21. The conveyor belt 20 is equipped with a conveyor motor, and the baffle arm 21 is located on both sides of the conveyor belt 20. One of the baffle arms 21 is provided with a baffle plate 22.

The connecting arm 24 is provided with a second waist hole 25. The clamping arm 26 and the second waist hole 25 are detachably connected. During filling, the second drive cylinder 23 uses the clamping plate 27 in conjunction with the baffle plate 22 to clamp and fix the beverage bottle 33, preventing the beverage bottle 33 from tipping over during filling. At the same time, the second waist hole 25 is used to make adjustments in real time according to the distance between the two beverage bottles 33.
[0035] Furthermore, the baffle 22 is equipped with a fixing device, which includes a bracket 28 and a fixing post 29. The fixing post 29 has a through hole and a sliding opening perpendicular to the opening direction of the hole. A connecting rod 30 is provided in the sliding opening, and one end of the connecting rod 30 is fixedly connected to the baffle 22. The fixing post 29 has a lifting bolt 32 perpendicular to the axis of the connecting rod 30. A pull ring 31 is fitted inside the movable hole of the connecting rod 30 and is connected to the lifting bolt 32. During filling, the distance between the two baffles 22 is adjusted according to the diameter of the beverage bottle 33. During adjustment, the lifting bolt 32 is loosened, and the connecting rod 30 is slid back and forth along the sliding opening to change the distance between the two baffles 22. At the same time, the connecting rod 30 is fixed by pulling it upward through the pull ring 31 using the lifting bolt 32.
[0036] During filling, the distance between the two baffles 22 is adjusted according to the diameter of the beverage bottle 33 by the lifting bolt 32. Then, the beverage is added into the storage tank 4 through the liquid inlet. Then, the vacuum pump 6 is started to pressurize the storage tank 4 using the air pipe 7. Then, under the pressure, the beverage reaches the dispenser 14 through the liquid guide pipe 16. Then, the dispenser 14 is inserted into the beverage bottle 33 by the first drive cylinder 8 to carry out filling. During filling, the stirring motor 18 drives the stirring paddle 19 to continuously stir the beverage in the storage tank 4 to ensure that the beverage entering the beverage bottle 33 is uniform.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
