[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a bottle cleaning mechanism, including:

[0027] The external cleaning assembly 100 includes a base 101, a support plate 102 fixedly installed on the side wall of the base 101, a roller 103 rotatably installed on the side wall of the support plate 102, a rotating rod 104 rotatably installed on the top of the support plate 102, and a large brush 105 adapted to be installed on the side wall of the rotating rod 104.

[0028] The internal cleaning assembly 200 includes a fixed plate 201 fixedly installed on the side wall of the support plate 102, a pull rod 202 movably inserted into the side wall of the support plate 102, a push rod 203 fixedly connected to the end of the pull rod 202, and a small brush 204 fixedly connected to the end of the push rod 203. The push rod 203 is movably inserted into the side wall of the support plate 102, and the small brush 204 is used in conjunction with the large brush 105.

[0029] The external cleaning assembly 100 uses a base 101 as its basic support structure. A support plate 102 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the base 101, providing mounting positions for other components. A roller 103 is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the support plate 102, providing support and possible rotation assistance for the bottle. When the bottle is placed on the roller 103, it allows the bottle to rotate to a certain extent, facilitating the cleaning operation. A rotating rod 104 is rotatably mounted on the top of the support plate 102, and a large brush 105 is fitted onto the rotating rod 104. When the rotating rod 104 rotates, it drives the large brush 105 to perform a circular motion. The large brush 105 cleans the exterior of the bottle through contact and friction with the outer surface of the bottle. The large brush 105 can be adapted to the external shape and size of the bottle to ensure that it can cover the outer surface of the bottle and effectively remove dirt and impurities from the exterior. The internal cleaning component 200 also relies on the support plate 102, in which the fixing plate 201 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the support plate 102, which plays a role in fixing and supporting. The pull rod 202 is movably inserted into the support plate 102. The side wall of the support plate 102 can move within a certain range. This movable connection method gives the pull rod 202 a certain degree of adjustability. The push rod 203 is fixedly connected to the end of the pull rod 202. Its function is to transmit the movement of the pull rod 202 to the small brush 204. The small brush 204 is fixedly connected to the end of the push rod 203. The movement of the push rod 203 drives the small brush 204 to clean the inside of the bottle. The push rod 203 is movably connected to the side wall of the support plate 102, ensuring the stability and direction of the push rod 203 during movement. The small brush 204 moves along a predetermined path when cleaning the inside of the bottle, while the external cleaning components clean the outside of the bottle. The small brush 204 works in conjunction with the large brush 105. While the external cleaning components clean the outside of the bottle, the internal small brush 204 can penetrate deep into the inside of the bottle. The two work together to achieve simultaneous cleaning of the inside and outside of the bottle for better cleaning results. The small brush 204 can be designed according to the shape and size of the inside of the bottle to ensure that it can penetrate into every corner of the bottle and remove dirt and impurities.

[0030] Specifically, the external cleaning assembly 100 also includes a main shaft 106 rotatably connected to the side wall of the support plate 102, a main pulley 107 adapted to be installed at the end of the main shaft 106, and a secondary pulley 108 fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod 104. The main pulley 107 is connected to the secondary pulley 108 via a belt. The end of the roller shaft 103 is fitted with a secondary pulley 108 of the same specification, and another set of main pulleys 107 is connected to the secondary pulley 108 at the end of the roller shaft 103 via a belt.

[0031] The main pulley 107 is connected to the auxiliary pulley 108 at the end of the rotating rod 104 via a belt, thereby transmitting power to the rotating rod 104, causing the rotating rod 104 to rotate and drive the large brush 105 fitted to its side wall to clean the outside of the bottle.

[0032] Furthermore, the external cleaning assembly 100 also includes a driven pulley 109 mounted on the side wall of the roller 103, and the driven pulleys 109 at the ends of the two rollers 103 are connected by belt drive.

[0033] Among them, the driven pulleys 109 at the ends of the two sets of rollers 103 are connected by belt drive to ensure coordinated rotation between the rollers 103. The rollers 103 can assist the rotation of the bottle during the cleaning process so that the large brush 105 can clean the outer surface of the bottle more thoroughly.

[0034] Preferably, the external cleaning assembly 100 also includes a motor 110 fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 101, and the output end of the motor 110 is connected to the main shaft 106 via a reducer.

[0035] The addition of motor 110 facilitates the control of the entire cleaning mechanism, enabling it to stably clean the bottles.

[0036] It should be noted that the internal cleaning assembly 200 also includes a bracket 205 mounted on the side wall of the base 101, a secondary synchronous pulley 206 rotatably mounted on the end of the bracket 205, a connector 207 mounted on the side wall of the secondary synchronous pulley 206, a sliding member 208 slidably mounted on the inner wall of the connector 207, and a lever 209 fixedly connected to the end of the sliding member 208, with the end of the lever 209 inserted into the middle of the bottom groove of the pull rod 202.

[0037] The bracket 205 is mounted on the side wall of the base 101, providing a stable mounting position for the secondary synchronous pulley 206. The secondary synchronous pulley 206 is rotatably mounted on the end of the bracket 205 and can rotate around its own axis. The connecting piece 207 is mounted on the side wall of the secondary synchronous pulley 206. When the secondary synchronous pulley 206 rotates, the connecting piece 207 will rotate with it. The sliding piece 208 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the connecting piece 207. In use, the sliding piece 208 is secured by bolts or other locking structures. The connecting member 207 is fixed to the side wall, and the lever 209 is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding member 208. The end of the lever 209 is inserted into the middle of the strip groove at the bottom of the pull rod 202. When the auxiliary timing pulley 206 rotates, it drives the connecting member 207 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting member 207 causes the sliding member 208 to slide on its inner wall, thereby driving the lever 209 to move. Since the end of the lever 209 is in the strip groove at the bottom of the pull rod 202, the movement of the lever 209 will push or pull the pull rod 202, causing it to move. The rod 202 reciprocates within the track that is movably inserted into the side wall of the support plate 102. The rotation of the secondary synchronous pulley 206 converts the rotational motion into the sliding motion of the sliding member 208. This sliding motion is then converted into the reciprocating motion of the pull rod 202 via the lever 209. This provides a periodic reciprocating drive for the push rod 203 and small brush 204 in the internal cleaning assembly, enabling the cleaning operation inside the bottle. This structural design cleverly utilizes the synchronous pulley and sliding connection to convert rotational motion into reciprocating motion, meeting the cleaning needs of the bottle's interior while ensuring structural compactness and transmission effectiveness, guaranteeing the stability and efficiency of the internal cleaning process. When the stroke of the push rod 203 needs adjustment, the sliding member 208 is loosened, and its position in the middle of the connecting member 207 is adjusted. This, in turn, adjusts the rotation diameter of the lever 209, changing the stroke of the push rod 203. After adjusting to the appropriate position, the sliding member 208 is then re-fixed to the side wall of the connecting member 207.

[0038] Preferably, the internal cleaning assembly 200 further includes a main synchronous pulley 210 rotatably mounted on the side wall of the base 101, a worm gear 211 fixedly mounted on the end of the main synchronous pulley 210, and a worm 212 adapted to be mounted on the end of the main shaft 106. The side wall of the worm 212 meshes with the side wall of the worm gear 211, and the main synchronous pulley 210 is connected to the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 via a synchronous belt.

[0039] When the main shaft 106 rotates, the main synchronous pulley 210 is driven to rotate through the transmission of the worm 212 and worm wheel 211. The main synchronous pulley 210 is connected to the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 through the synchronous belt, thereby causing the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 to rotate. The connecting part 207 at the end of the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 drives the sliding part 208 to move. The lever 209 at the end of the sliding part 208 slides in the middle of the strip groove at the bottom of the pull rod 202, thereby driving the small brush 204 to work with the large brush 105 to clean the inside of the bottle.

[0040] In use, the control device drives the motor 110 to start, which drives the main shaft 106 to rotate. A main pulley 107 is installed at the end of the main shaft 106. The main pulley 107 is connected to the auxiliary pulley 108 at the end of the rotating rod 104 via a belt, thus transmitting power to the rotating rod 104, causing it to rotate and drive the large brush 105 fitted to its side wall to clean the exterior of the bottle. An auxiliary pulley 108 of the same specification is also fitted to the end of the roller shaft 103. Another set of main pulleys 107 is connected to the auxiliary pulley 108 at the end of the roller shaft 103 via a belt, causing the roller shaft 103 to rotate. Furthermore, the driven pulleys 109 at the ends of the two sets of roller shafts 103 are connected via belt drive to ensure coordinated rotation between the roller shafts 103. The roller shaft 103 assists in the rotation of the bottle during the cleaning process, allowing the large brush 105 to more thoroughly clean the exterior surface of the bottle. The worm gear 2... 12 meshes with the side wall of the worm gear 211 fixedly installed at the end of the main synchronous pulley 210. When the main shaft 106 rotates, the main synchronous pulley 210 is driven to rotate through the transmission of the worm 212 and the worm gear 211. The main synchronous pulley 210 is connected to the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 through the synchronous belt, thereby causing the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 to rotate. The connecting part 207 at the end of the auxiliary synchronous pulley 206 drives the sliding part 208 to move. The lever 209 at the end of the sliding part 208 slides in the middle of the strip groove at the bottom of the pull rod 202, causing the pull rod 202 to reciprocate. The pull rod 202 is movably inserted into the side wall of the support plate 102, and its end is fixedly connected to the push rod 203. The end of the push rod 203 is fixedly connected to the small brush 204. The reciprocating motion of the pull rod 202 drives the push rod 203 and the small brush 204 at its end to reciprocate. The small brush 204 is used in conjunction with the large brush 105 to clean the inside of the bottle.

[0041] In summary, the large brush 105 in the external cleaning component 100 and the small brush 204 in the internal cleaning component 200 work together to clean both the inner and outer surfaces of the bottle simultaneously, ensuring thorough cleaning of the bottle and avoiding the problem of incomplete cleaning caused by cleaning only the outside or inside. The large brush 105 cleans by rotating the lever 104, while the small brush 204 cleans by reciprocating motion driven by the pull rod 202. The different motion modes can better adapt to the different shapes and structures of the inner and outer surfaces of the bottle, improving cleaning efficiency and cleanliness. This ensures that the bottle is not subjected to unstable forces due to the individual movement of a component during the cleaning process, reducing the risk of damage to the bottle during cleaning. While assisting the rotation of the bottle, it also ensures the stability of the bottle rotation, further improving the uniformity and effectiveness of cleaning.
