[0036] Example

[0037] Reference Figures 1-4 This utility model provides an ice bottle machine, including an ice bottle machine body 100. One end of the ice bottle machine body 100 in a first direction is provided with an inlet and an outlet, and the inlet is located at the upper end in a second direction, and the outlet is located at the lower end in the second direction.

[0038] A plurality of first cooling plates 200 and a plurality of second cooling plates 300 are provided inside the ice bottle machine body 100. One end of the first cooling plate 200 abuts against the inner wall of the first end of the ice bottle machine body 100 in a first direction, and the other end of the first cooling plate 200 forms a first material discharge port 600 between it and the inner wall of the second end of the ice bottle machine body 100 in a first direction.

[0039] One end of the second cooling plate 300 abuts against the inner wall of the second end of the ice bottle machine body 100 in the first direction, and the other end of the second cooling plate 300 forms a second discharge port 700 between it and the inner wall of the first end of the ice bottle machine body 100 in the first direction.

[0040] Furthermore, the second cooling plate 300 is disposed between two adjacent first cooling plates 200. A first channel 400 extending in a first direction is formed on the first cooling plate 200, and a second channel 500 extending in the first direction is formed on the second cooling plate 300. The second channel 500 is connected to the first channel 400 located at the upper end of the second channel 500 through the first discharge port 600, and the second channel 500 is connected to the first channel 400 located at the lower end of the second channel 500 through the second discharge port 700.

[0041] A lower discharge plate 800 is provided inside the body 100 of the ice bottle machine. Both ends of the lower discharge plate 800 in the first direction abut against the inner wall of the body 100 of the ice bottle machine. A discharge channel 900 is formed between the lower discharge plate 800 and the adjacent first cooling plate 200. The discharge channel 900 is connected to the adjacent first channel 400.

[0042] Multiple first channels 400, multiple second channels 500, and discharge channel 900 form a cooling channel, one end of which is connected to the bottle inlet and the other end of which is connected to the bottle outlet;

[0043] The first direction is the length direction of the ice bottle machine body 100, and the second direction is the width direction of the ice bottle machine body 100.

[0044] In some embodiments, the inlet of the ice bottle machine body 100 is located at the upper end, and the outlet is located at the lower end. After the ice bottle 190 enters through the inlet, the ice bottle 190 enters the second channel 500 from the uppermost first channel 400, and then enters other first channels 400. The ice bottle 190 gradually descends in the ice bottle machine body 100 until it moves into the discharge channel 900. Other ice bottles 190 enter sequentially through the inlet until the ice bottle machine body 100 is filled with ice bottles 190.

[0045] After the main body 100 of the ice bottle machine completes the cooling of the ice bottle 190, the ice bottle 190 is removed from the outlet, and other ice bottles 190 are removed from the outlet in sequence; this achieves the cooling of the ice bottle 190. Compared with the existing technology, which requires manual placement of the ice bottle 190 into the cold storage for cooling, this improves the cooling efficiency, reduces the degree of manual intervention, and realizes the automation of the cooling of the ice bottle 190.

[0046] Reference Figure 2 In an optional embodiment, the first cooling plate 200, the second cooling plate 300, and the lower discharge plate 800 are all inclined.

[0047] The upper surface of the first cooling plate 200 gradually decreases along the extension direction of the first discharge port 600, and the upper surface of the second cooling plate 300 gradually decreases along the extension direction of the second discharge port 700.

[0048] The lower discharge plate 800 gradually decreases along the extension direction of the bottle outlet.

[0049] In order to enable the ice bottles 190 at higher positions to move automatically to lower positions, the first cooling plate 200, the second cooling plate 300, and the lower discharge plate 800 are all inclined, so that the ice bottles 190 located on the first cooling plate 200, the second cooling plate 300, and the lower discharge plate 800 can move sequentially by gravity. In this way, after the ice bottles 190 enter the ice bottle machine body 100 from the bottle inlet, the ice bottles 190 can move automatically downwards until they collide with other ice bottles 190 and stop.

[0050] After the ice bottle 190 finishes cooling, one ice bottle 190 is removed from the outlet. The other ice bottles 190 then move downwards under gravity to fill the positions of the previous ice bottle 190, thus achieving automatic movement of the ice bottles 190 within the main body 100 of the ice bottle machine.

[0051] Reference Figure 1 In an optional embodiment, a plurality of first pushing components 110 are provided on the first end of the ice bottle machine body 100. Each first pushing component 110 corresponds to a first channel 400. The first pushing component 110 is used to move the ice bottle 190 in the first channel 400 toward the second end of the ice bottle machine body 100.

[0052] A plurality of second pushing components 120 are provided on the second end of the ice bottle 190 body. The second channel 500 and the discharge channel 900 are each provided with a second pushing component 120. The second pushing component 120 is used to move the ice bottle 190 toward the first end of the ice bottle machine body 100.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first cooling plate 200, the second cooling plate 300, and the lower discharge plate 800 are horizontally arranged. When the ice bottle 190 enters the second cooling plate 300, the second pushing component 120 pushes the ice bottle 190, causing the ice bottle 190 to move in the first direction, that is, the ice bottle 190 moves towards the second discharge port 700. The first pushing component 110 causes the ice bottle 190 to move towards the first discharge port 600. In this way, the ice bottle 190 is automatically moved within the ice bottle machine body 100, so that the ice bottle 190 moves from high to low.

[0054] The first and second feeding components have the same structure. The feeding component generally includes a feeding plate and a pneumatic push rod. A feeding port is provided on the main body 100 of the ice bottle machine, and a feeding plate is provided at the feeding port. One end of the pneumatic push rod is connected to the feeding plate. The pneumatic push rod causes the feeding plate to reciprocate, thereby realizing the movement of the ice bottle 190.

[0055] In an optional embodiment, a lower conveyor belt 140 is also included, on which the ice bottle 190 removed from the bottle outlet is moved to the lower conveyor belt 140, which is used to remove the ice bottle 190.

[0056] The lower conveyor belt 140 is located at the bottle outlet. When the ice bottle 190 inside the main body 100 of the ice bottle machine is moved out of the bottle outlet, the ice bottle 190 enters the lower conveyor belt 140. The lower conveyor belt 140 transports the ice bottle 190 to the packaging machine, and the packaging machine packages the ice bottle 190.

[0057] In an optional embodiment, the bottle inlet is provided with a bottle inlet door, and the bottle outlet is provided with a bottle outlet door.

[0058] When the main body 100 of the ice bottle machine cools the ice bottle 190, the inlet door of the bottle inlet is closed and the outlet door of the bottle outlet is closed, which improves the heat preservation effect of the ice bottle machine and the cooling effect of the ice bottle 190.

[0059] Both the inlet and outlet doors are lifting doors, which are typically raised and lowered by lifting cylinders.

[0060] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In an optional embodiment, the first cooling plate 200, the second cooling plate 300, and the lower discharge plate 800 are all freezing plates 150.

[0061] At least two side baffles 170 are provided on the freezing plate 150, the side baffles 170 extend along a first direction, and a channel for the movement of the ice bottle 190 is formed between two adjacent side baffles 170.

[0062] In an optional embodiment, the side baffle 170 is provided with a positioning protrusion 180, which is used to fit into the positioning groove 210 of the ice bottle 190 and to move the ice bottle 190 along a first direction.

[0063] In an optional embodiment, the freezing plate 150 includes a plurality of freezing single plates 160, one side of which is provided with an assembly groove 162 and the other side is provided with an assembly protrusion 161.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, the refrigeration panel 160 is provided with a plurality of antifreeze channels 220 extending along a first direction; and a refrigerant channel 230 is provided between two adjacent antifreeze channels 220.

[0065] In order to move the ice bottle 190 in a specified direction, a positioning protrusion 180 is provided on the freezing plate 150. The positioning protrusion 180 extends in the first direction. After the ice bottle 190 is placed on the freezing plate 150, the positioning groove 210 on the ice bottle 190 matches the positioning protrusion 180, so that the ice bottle 190 can maintain a fixed posture and move.

[0066] Side baffles 170 are provided on the freezing plate 150. Two side baffles 170 form a channel for the movement of the ice bottle 190. Generally, at least two side baffles 170 are provided on the freezing plate 150. Depending on the actual needs, multiple side baffles 170 are provided on the freezing plate 150 to form multiple channels for the movement of the ice bottle 190. This further ensures that the ice bottle 190 moves smoothly along the designated trajectory. In addition, there is a drainage gap between the side baffles 170 and the freezing plate 150 so that the water from the frost on the freezing plate 150 can be drained in time.

[0067] The freezing plate 150 is formed by splicing together multiple freezing single plates 160. The assembly protrusions 161 of the freezing single plate 160 are assembled into the assembly grooves 162 of the adjacent freezing single plate 160, thus realizing the splicing of multiple freezing single plates 160 to form the freezing single plate 160.

[0068] To improve the cooling effect, multiple antifreeze channels 220 are provided inside the refrigeration panel 160, and refrigerant channels 230 are provided between adjacent antifreeze channels 220; this improves the cooling effect and freezing efficiency; refrigerant channels 230 or antifreeze channels 220 can be set separately on the refrigeration panel 160, and refrigerant or antifreeze can be circulated separately to freeze the ice bottle 190.

[0069] The refrigerant is usually Freon or other conventional products, and the antifreeze is an existing product. Generally, antifreeze will only freeze at a temperature of at least -38°C.

[0070] A defrosting channel can also be set on the refrigerated panel 160, which uses room temperature water for circulation to quickly melt the frost.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, an upper conveyor belt 130 is also included, which corresponds to the bottle inlet and is used to transport the ice bottle 190 to the bottle inlet.

[0072] An upper conveyor belt 130 is provided at the bottle inlet, and a lower conveyor belt 140 is provided at the bottle outlet; the number of channels for moving ice bottles 190 on the first cooling plate 200 is the same as the number of ice bottles 190 pushed from the upper conveyor belt 130 to the bottle inlet at one time.

[0073] The inlet of the ice bottle machine body 100 provided by this utility model is used to put in the ice bottle 190. The ice bottle 190 moves along the refrigeration channel inside the ice bottle machine body 100. After the ice bottle 190 is frozen inside the ice bottle machine, it is removed from the outlet. This realizes the automated refrigeration of the ice bottle 190, reduces the degree of manual intervention, and realizes the automation of the refrigeration of the ice bottle 190.

[0074] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
