Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beer bottling technology, specifically a multi-station semi-automatic freshness-locking beer bottling machine. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the global beer market has shown a continuous growth trend, and consumers' demand for high-quality and diversified beers has been rising. Craft beer, with its unique flavor and rich taste, has rapidly emerged in the market, and many small breweries have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. Traditional beer bottling machines cannot effectively isolate air during the bottling process, resulting in a large amount of contact between beer and oxygen. Oxygen accelerates the oxidation of flavor substances in beer, causing the beer to have an aging taste, which seriously affects the taste and quality of the beer. In addition, the bottling process can only be carried out one bottle at a time, and it is impossible to fill multiple bottles at the same time, which affects the bottling efficiency.

[0003] According to the description of a beer filling machine published on the patent website (authorization announcement number: CN221217121U), the beer filling machine includes "base, bottom plate, clamping block" etc. to realize the filling work.

[0004] Regarding the above description, the applicant believes the following issues exist:

[0005] This beer filling machine uses a base, bottom plate, clamping blocks, etc. to carry out the filling work. Although the foam generated during the use of this filling machine is discharged from the exhaust pipe next to the dividing plate, it cannot remove the oxygen in the bottle before filling. This causes the beer to come into a lot of contact with oxygen, which will accelerate the oxidation of flavor substances in the beer, giving the beer an aging taste and affecting its quality. In addition, it can only fill one bottle at a time, which is inefficient. Therefore, this filling machine needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a multi-station semi-automatic freshness-locking beer filling machine, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This multi-station semi-automatic freshness-locking beer filling machine, through its filling mechanism, when beer needs to be filled, uses a first conveying pump to transport beer from the storage tank to the bottles via a first conveying pipe, a diversion pipe, and a filling head. Four filling heads are provided, allowing multiple bottles to be filled simultaneously, thus improving filling efficiency while achieving multi-station filling. Before filling, a second conveying pump, through a second conveying pipe, can fill the bottles with carbon dioxide from a gas storage tank, replacing the oxygen content in the beer bottles or filling containers with carbon dioxide gas. The process involves reducing the amount of beer exposed to oxygen, thus slowing down the oxidation process and better preserving the freshness and taste of the beer. The bottle is placed on top of the platform, in contact with the inner side of the first clamping plate. The threaded rod and mounting plate move the second clamping plate, which then slides into the first clamping plate, securing it to the bottle's size and ensuring stability. The first cylinder adjusts the bottle's position, ensuring the bottle neck is positioned at the bottom of the filling head. The second cylinder moves the bottle, positioning the filling head inside for filling.

[0018] 2. This multi-station semi-automatic freshness-locking beer filling machine, through its sealing mechanism, allows the beer to be filled under the action of the filling mechanism. When the air compressor, connecting pipe, connector, hose, and air tank create negative pressure in the suction cup and adsorb the corresponding bottle cap, the filled beer can be moved to the bottom of the suction cup. The third cylinder can drive the air tank and suction cup to move up and down, making it easier to fix the bottle cap on the bottle and seal the bottle after filling. This achieves semi-automatic operation and improves filling and subsequent processing efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0039] Example 2

[0040] Please see Figure 1-8 Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, the sealing mechanism 3 further includes a concave frame 31, which is fixedly connected to the top of the filling machine body 1. A third cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the concave frame 31, and an air storage box 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the third cylinder 32. A suction cup 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air storage box 33, and a hose 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the air storage box 33. A connector 36 is fixedly connected to the left side of the top of the hose 35, and a connecting pipe 37 is fixedly connected to the left side of the connector 36. An air compressor 38 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the bottom of the connecting pipe 37. The air compressor 38 is fixedly connected to the top of the filling machine body 1, and the hose 35 is slidably connected inside the concave frame 31, so that negative pressure is generated inside the suction cup 34 under the action of the air compressor 38 to adsorb the bottle cap.

[0041] In actual operation, when this device is used to fill beer, the bottles are placed on the top of the placement platform 224, and four bottles can be placed at a time. The bottles are made to contact the inner side of the first clamping plate 225. The servo motor 226 drives the mounting plate 228 and the second clamping plate 229, which are connected to the threaded rod 227, to move. The second clamping plate 229 is slidably connected to the inside of the first clamping plate 225, so that the bottles can be fixed according to their size and stability can be guaranteed.

[0042] When the bottle is secured, the first cylinder 221 moves the moving platform 222 and the placement platform 224 to adjust the front and rear position of the bottle so that the bottle opening is exactly at the bottom of the filling head 219. The second cylinder 223 then moves the placement platform 224 and the secured bottle, positioning the filling head 219 inside the bottle for filling. Once the movement is complete, the second delivery pump 2192, under the action of the second delivery pipe 2191, fills the bottle with carbon dioxide from the gas storage tank 216, using carbon dioxide gas to replace the contents of the beer bottle or filling container. By filling the beer bottle with carbon dioxide and expelling the air, the oxygen content is reduced, and the contact between the beer and oxygen is reduced, thereby slowing down the oxidation process of the beer and better maintaining the freshness and taste of the beer. At the same time, under the action of the first delivery pump 213, the beer in the storage tank 212 can be delivered to the beer bottle through the first delivery pipe 217, the diversion pipe 218 and the filling head 219 for filling. There are four filling heads 219, which can fill multiple bottles at the same time, realizing multi-station filling while improving filling efficiency and completing the filling work.

[0043] Before filling, the staff can place the bottle cap corresponding to the wine bottle at the bottom of the suction cup 34. Under the action of the air compressor 38, connecting pipe 37, connector 36, hose 35 and air storage box 33, a negative pressure is generated in the suction cup 34 and the bottle cap corresponding to the wine bottle is adsorbed. When filling is completed, the second cylinder 223 and the first cylinder 221 can move the filled wine bottle to the bottom of the suction cup 34. The third cylinder 32 can move the air storage box 33 and the suction cup 34 up and down, which makes it easier to fix the bottle cap on the wine bottle and seal the filled wine bottle. This realizes semi-automatic operation and improves filling and subsequent processing efficiency. When sealing is completed, the wine bottle can be taken out for subsequent processing, and the unfilled wine bottle is placed on the top of the placement platform 224 for fixation and waiting for filling.
