TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to wine product processing technical field, concretely relates to a kind of for the air drying of wine bottle bottle body blow device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the production and processing of wine product, wine bottle is produced first needs to clean, dry the bottle body outer surface to the customization of wine bottle outer surface, and the air drying of bottle body outer surface after cleaning is the key process that influences the qualified rate of labeling and production efficiency.
[0003] The following two ways are generally used to dry the bottle body after cleaning in the prior art: one is tunnel type air dryer, which blows air to the bottle body in one direction through a linear air duct. This method has air dead angle, which can cause the leeward surface of the bottle body to dry insufficiently, and high wind speed can also cause the bottle body to tip over and cause unnecessary loss. The second is a rotary air drying device, which rotates the bottle body in cooperation with a ring-shaped air knife. This method can improve the problem of uneven air drying, but the mechanical structure is complex and not suitable for processing of special-shaped bottles.
[0004] In recent years, in order to improve the drying efficiency and quality of the bottle body, wine packaging enterprises have tried to dry the wine bottle upside down, such as the inverted chain plate conveying system used in beer production line. However, the existing upside-down drying device has new problems: when the bottle mouth is downward, the residual water will flow to the neck of the bottle mouth under the action of gravity and form a ring-shaped water stain belt. The air flow of the conventional symmetrical side blow tube is turbulent after converging below the bottle body, which can scatter the water droplets to the dried area, thereby reducing the drying efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a high-efficiency wine bottle body blow device that can achieve no dead angle, uniform blowing and adapt to different bottle types. SUMMARY
[0005] The utility model intends to provide a kind of blow device for the air drying of wine bottle bottle body, to solve the problem of uneven air drying of existing wine bottle drying device.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a blow device for the air drying of wine bottle bottle body, comprising a chain horizontally arranged and a blow mechanism, the chain passes through the blow mechanism, and the wine bottle bottle body is vertically inverted on the chain, the blow mechanism comprises a plurality of spaced-apart blow units, each blow unit comprises blow assemblies arranged on both sides of the chain respectively, the blow assemblies each comprise an inclined blow tube and a fan connected with the blow tube, the air outlet end of the blow tube is square, the two included angles formed by the blow tubes on both sides and the chain are α and β respectively, and 30°≤α≤60°, 30°≤β≤60°.
[0007] The beneficial effects of the scheme are: 1. The single-sided inclined alternate air-drying mode can better prevent residual water from being splashed to the dried area due to too strong airflow impact, and can also prevent the problem of uneven air-drying caused by the accumulated water in the small corners of the uneven bottle surface of the pattern wine bottle.
[0008] 2. By inclining the blow tubes, the bottle is conveyed upside down, which not only prevents residual water in the cleaning step from flowing into the bottle, but also reduces the complexity of the structure of the entire blow-drying device.
[0009] Preferably, the air outlet end provides a long strip-shaped airflow, and the upper end of the long strip-shaped airflow is higher than the bottom of the bottle, and the lower end of the long strip-shaped airflow is lower than the bottle mouth.
[0010] Preferably, in the same blow-drying unit, the blow tubes on both sides are in a front-rear position.
[0011] Preferably, the cross section of the air outlet end is smaller than the cross section of the air inlet end.
[0012] Preferably, the chain is a roller chain, which includes a plurality of inner chain plates, outer chain plates, and pin shafts connecting the inner chain plates and the outer chain plates; and a plurality of support seats are connected to the chain at intervals, and the support seats are parallel to the pin shafts on the roller chain.
[0013] Preferably, α=30°, β=60°, and the two angles α and β are respectively located on the two sides of the support seat.
[0014] Preferably, the support seat includes a fixed part and a connecting part, the fixed part is respectively connected to the top of the chain perpendicularly, the connecting part is in a whole conical shape, and the connecting part is detachably connected to the fixed part.
[0015] Preferably, the top of the connecting part is provided with a positioning part, and the bottom diameter of the positioning part is the same as the diameter of the top surface of the connecting part.
[0016] Preferably, the positioning part is in a cylindrical or conical shape.
[0017] Preferably, the inclination directions or inclination angles of the two adjacent blow tubes on the same side of the chain are different.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the scheme are: on the basis of the different inclination directions or inclination angles of the blow tubes on both sides of the same blow-drying unit, the inclination directions or inclination angles of the two adjacent blow tubes on the same side are also different. In the process of air-drying of the wine bottle by the blow-drying mechanism, the two sides of the bottle can be subjected to more different inclined airflows for alternate air-drying, which can further improve the uniformity of air-drying of the bottle, especially the uneven pattern bottle, and thus improve the air-drying quality.

[0023] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method:
[0024] The reference numerals in the accompanying drawings include: chain 1, pin 101, platform 11, support 2, fixing part 21, connecting part 22, positioning part 23, blower 3, air inlet 301, air outlet 302, fan 31, frame 32, and bottle 4.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] Example 1 is basically as shown in the appendix. Figures 1-4 As shown, Figure 1 The blowing device shown for drying wine bottles includes a conveying mechanism and a blower 31. The blower 31 is used to dry the wine bottle body 4, which has residual water on its outer surface after cleaning, so as to facilitate subsequent processing operations such as labeling and printing on the wine bottle body 4. The conveying mechanism is used to vertically invert and convey the wine bottle body 4, which has been washed with water, to the blower 31 for drying, and after the bottle body 4 is dried, it is conveyed to the next processing production unit.
[0027] The conveying mechanism includes a horizontally arranged chain 1, with sprockets (not shown in the diagram) meshing at both ends of the chain 1. Each sprocket is connected to a drive unit. In this embodiment, the drive unit is a motor. When the motor is started, the sprockets rotate, thereby driving the chain 1 to start conveying the wine bottle body 4.
[0028] The blower 31 comprises several spaced-apart blower units, and each blower unit includes two blower components respectively disposed on both sides of the chain 1. Each blower component includes a blower tube 3 and a fan 31 connected to the blower tube 3. The specific installation method of the fan 31 is as follows: Figure 1As shown: on both sides of the chain 1 through the screw vertical fixed one rack 32, rack 32 on the interval welding has a plurality of support column, the fan 31 is fixed on the support column through the screw can. The fan 31 outlet and blow tube 3 air inlet 301 through the welding fixed communication, blow tube 3 air outlet 302 all to the chain 1, the fan 31 start through the blow tube 3 air outlet 302 to the chain 1 blow, so as to chain 1 on the wine bottle body 4 drying. In addition, the blow tube 3 as a whole is trapezoidal body, that is, the air outlet 302 and air inlet 301 cross section are square, and the air outlet 302 and air inlet 301 in the embodiment are rectangular, to provide a long strip of airflow to the chain 1, and the upper end of the long strip of airflow is higher than the bottom of the bottle body 4, and the lower end of the long strip of airflow is lower than the bottle mouth; the cross section of the air outlet 302 is smaller than that of the air inlet 301, so as to increase the airflow flow velocity of the air outlet 302 under the condition of constant power of the fan 31, and improve the drying efficiency.
[0029] In combination Figure 2 As shown, in the same blow assembly, the blow tube 3 on both sides is in a front and rear position, that is, the same bottle body 4 after the drying operation of the blow tube 3 in the blow assembly ends, moves forward to receive the drying operation of another blow tube 3, to avoid the airflow loss of the two blow assemblies arranged oppositely. The two angles formed between the blow tube 3 on both sides of the same blow unit and the horizontally arranged chain 1 are α and β, and 30°≤α≤60°, 30°≤β≤60°, that is, the two blow tubes 3 in the blow unit blow the long strip of airflow to the chain 1 at a self defined angle, and in the embodiment, Figure 1 The arrow direction in the figure is the advancing direction of the chain 1, the angle between the left blow tube and the chain 1 is α, α=30°, the angle between the right blow tube and the chain 1 is β, β=60°, and from Figure 1 The right side to the left side view of the figure, the two angles α and β are located on both sides of the wine bottle, that is, the blow tubes 3 on both sides of the same blow unit are inclined to different directions.
[0030] In combination Figure 3The blowing of the wine bottle body 4 in the blowing unit will be described. The chain 1 sequentially vertically and upside down conveys the wine bottle body 4 to the blowing machine 31, and the bottle body 4 moves horizontally while the blowing end is inclined and stationary. First, the bottle body 4 is first contacted with the long strip-shaped air blown by the right blowing cylinder 3, and the contacting process is gradually moved from the right lower front of the bottle body 4 to the right upper rear of the bottle body 4 in an oblique state, and then the bottle body 4 continues to move forward with the chain 1 and is contacted with the long strip-shaped air blown by the left blowing cylinder 3, and the contacting process is gradually moved from the left upper front of the bottle body 4 to the left lower rear of the bottle body 4 in an oblique state. This is the air drying process of one blowing unit, and then the bottle body 4 continues to be conveyed, and multiple blowing units alternately complete the air drying work of the bottle body 4.
[0031] Unlike the conventional vertical or horizontal blowing drying method of the bottle body 4, the present scheme adopts a lateral interval alternating blowing method, which sequentially and obliquely dries the two sides of the bottle body 4 from top to bottom and from bottom to top. Figure 3 It will be described that in the process of the wine bottle body 4 contacting with the right air flow, the air flow first blows the residual water on the right bottle body 4 outer wall away from top to bottom in sequence, reducing the case that the residual water forms water stains on the bottle mouth and remains on the bottle mouth. At this time, the right surface of the bottle body 4 is preliminarily dried, and then the bottle body 4 contacts with the left air flow, and the air flow first blows the residual water on the left bottle body 4 outer wall away from top to bottom in sequence before entering the next blowing unit, and then the right side of the bottle body 4 is dried first. This way of single-sided oblique alternating drying can better prevent residual water from splashing to the dried area due to too strong air flow impact, and can also avoid the problem of air flow loss caused by simultaneous blowing, and can prevent the problem of uneven drying caused by the accumulation of residual water in the small corners of the uneven bottle body 4 surface of the patterned wine bottle, which affects the subsequent processing and product packaging quality.
[0032] As shown in Figure 4 The conveying mechanism includes a water platform 11, a chain 1, and a plurality of support seats 2 connected to the chain 1 at intervals. The support seat 2 is used to connect and support the bottle body 4 to be conveyed. In this embodiment, the chain 1 is a roller chain, which includes a plurality of inner chain plates, outer chain plates, and pin shafts 101 connecting the inner chain plates and the outer chain plates. The chain 1 is horizontally movably connected to the water platform 11. Specifically, the pin shafts 101 in the chain 1 are all perpendicular to the water platform 11. A plurality of cylindrical sliding blocks are fixedly welded at the bottom of the chain 1 at intervals, and the sliding blocks are parallel to the pin shafts 101 on the roller chain. Long strip-shaped sliding grooves are formed horizontally, and the sliding blocks are slidably connected in the sliding grooves. In order to further improve the stability of the chain 1 in operation, a circular support plate (not shown in the support plate diagram) is coaxially arranged below each sprocket. The support plate is rotatably connected to both ends of the rack 32. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the upper surface of the support plate, and the arc-shaped groove is in communication with the sliding groove.
[0033] As Figure 4 shown, the support seat 2 includes a fixed part 21 and a connecting part 22, the fixed part 21 is respectively vertically welded at the top of the chain 1, and the fixed part 21 is parallel to the pin shaft 101 in the chain 1, the connecting part 22 is conical in whole, and the connecting part 22 is detachably connected to the fixed part 21, and in the embodiment, the detachable connection is screw connection. By replacing the connecting part 22 of different models and different sizes, the support and fixation of different models of wine bottles can be realized. The connecting part 22 is of soft material, and in the embodiment, the material of the connecting part 22 is rubber. The soft connecting part 22 gradually increases in cross section from top to bottom, and when the wine bottle is connected in the inverted position, the conical connecting part 22 can enter the bottle opening of different size wine bottles, that is, the same model of connecting part 22 can be adapted to wine bottles with different bottle opening sizes, thereby further improving the adaptability of the blowing device. Figure 4 In addition, as
[0034] After the wine bottle is inverted through the bottle opening and placed on the soft connecting part 22, under the gravity of the wine bottle itself, the connecting part 22 can be inserted into the bottle opening of the wine bottle to fix the wine bottle and block the bottle opening (if the weight of the wine bottle is light, in order to ensure the stability of the connection between the bottle body 4 and the support seat 2 after the inverted fixation, the wine bottle can be manually pressed down by the operator), at this time, the connecting part 22 not only connects the wine bottle and the chain 1, but also prevents water from flowing into the wine bottle, thereby further improving the drying efficiency of the device.
[0035] In the scheme, first, by tilting the blowing tubes 3, the bottle body 4 is inverted and conveyed, which not only prevents residual water in the cleaning step from flowing into the bottle, but also reduces the complexity of the structure of the blowing device. Secondly, by setting the spaced blowing tubes 3 to alternately blow and dry the bottle body 4, the drying uniformity is improved, and the energy consumption of the device operation is reduced due to the overcoming of the energy loss caused by the opposite blowing, thereby reducing the production cost. In addition, by conveying the wine bottle body 4 in the inverted position, the problem of water accumulation in the concave part of the bottle shoulder in the upright state is avoided, thereby improving the drying efficiency and avoiding the influence of glue dilution on the labeling quality in the subsequent labeling operation.
[0036] Embodiment 2
[0037] Different from embodiment 1, in the embodiment, the inclination direction or inclination angle of the two blowing tubes 3 adjacent to each other on the same side of the chain 1 is different.
[0038] On the basis that the blowing cylinder 3 on the same blowing unit two sides has different inclination direction or inclination angle, the inclination direction or inclination angle of the adjacent two blowing cylinders 3 on the same side is also different. In the process of air drying by the blowing machine 31, the bottle body 4 can be alternately air dried by more different inclined airflows on both sides, which can further improve the uniformity of the bottle body 4, especially the uneven surface of the bottle body 4, and improve the air drying quality.
[0039] The above is only an embodiment of the present application, and the specific technical solutions and / or common knowledge of the scheme are not described in detail. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the technical scheme of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application, and these will not affect the effect and practicality of the present application. The protection scope of the present application should be subject to the content of its claims, and the specific implementation mode and the like in the specification can be used to explain the content of the claims.
