Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of container positioning and cleaning, and in particular to a container positioning structure and a lower shelf. Background Technology

[0002] Containers such as baby bottles are everyday containers for holding milk or drinking water. A baby bottle generally consists of two main parts: the bottle body and the nipple. Tools for cleaning baby bottles include handheld cleaners or brushes, as well as bottle washing machines.

[0003] Existing container washing machines include a water supply pipe and multiple nozzles fixed to the water supply pipe, an upper shelf, and a lower shelf. The upper shelf can hold one or more nipples, and the lower shelf can hold one or more bottles. The water supply pipe supplies water to the multiple nozzles, which are used to clean containers such as nipples on the upper shelf and containers such as bottles on the lower shelf. Containers such as baby bottles often lack stability when placed on the lower shelf. Utility Model Content

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a container positioning structure, which includes:

[0005] At least one inner limiting element is used to limit the inner wall of the container when placed inside the container from the opening of the container.

[0006] At least one external limiting member is provided outside the container to limit the outer wall of the container; and

[0007] Multiple inclined support members are arranged at intervals between each other and connected to at least one inner limiting member. The multiple inclined support members are used to support the opening edge of the container so that the container is in an inclined state.

[0008] In one optional embodiment of this application, the container positioning structure further includes:

[0009] Supports the chassis and connects to multiple inclined support components;

[0010] At least two of the multiple inclined supports extend upward from the top surface of the support chassis;

[0011] The distance between the top surface of at least two inclined support members and the top surface of the support base is different, so that the container is placed on multiple inclined support members in an inclined state.

[0012] At least one external limiting member is connected to the supporting chassis, and at least one external limiting member is disposed on the top surface of the supporting chassis.

[0013] In one optional embodiment of this application, the container positioning structure further includes:

[0015] Both the reinforced chassis and the inner limiting component have arc-shaped limiting bodies. The opening direction defined by the reinforced chassis is opposite to the opening direction defined by the inner limiting component.

[0016] In one optional embodiment of this application, the limiting body of an inner limiting member is an arc-shaped structure, and the limiting member of an outer limiting member is an arc-shaped structure, with the opening direction defined by the limiting body being opposite to the opening direction defined by the outer limiting member; or

[0017] The inner limiting component has an arc-shaped limiting body, and the two outer limiting components are arranged opposite each other, with the inner limiting component located between the two outer limiting components.

[0018] In one optional embodiment of this application, all inclined support members are provided with a stepped structure to define a first stepped surface and a second stepped surface with different heights. The first stepped surface is closer to the inner limiting member than the second stepped surface, and the height of the first stepped surface is lower than the height of the second stepped surface. The first stepped surface is used to support the first container, and the second stepped surface is used to support the second container.

[0019] In one optional embodiment of this application, there is only one inner limiting member and one outer limiting member. The height of the inclined support member farther from the outer limiting member is higher than the height of the inclined support member closer to the outer limiting member, so that when the container is placed on multiple supports, the outer wall of the container can contact the outer limiting member and be limited by it; or

[0020] There is one inner limiting member and two outer limiting members, including a main limiting member and an auxiliary limiting member. The main limiting member and the auxiliary limiting member are arranged opposite each other, and the inner limiting member is located between the main limiting member and the auxiliary limiting member. The height of the inclined support member farther away from the main limiting member is higher than the height of the inclined support member closer to the main limiting member, so that when the container is placed on multiple inclined support members, the contact area between the outer wall of the container and the main limiting member is greater than the contact area between the outer wall of the container and the auxiliary limiting member.

[0021] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a container positioning structure, which includes:

[0022] At least one inner limiting member is used to limit the inner wall of the air delivery tube from being placed inside the air delivery tube through the opening; and

[0023] Multiple inclined support members are arranged at intervals between each other. The multiple inclined support members are connected to at least one inner limiting member. The multiple inclined support members are used to support the opening edge of the air guide tube, so that the air guide tube is in an inclined state.

[0024] In one optional embodiment of this application, all inclined support members are provided with a stepped structure to define a first stepped surface and a second stepped surface with different heights. The first stepped surface is closer to the inner limiting member than the second stepped surface. The first stepped surface is used to support a first type of air guide tube, and the second stepped surface is used to support a second type of air guide tube.

[0028] Multiple third positioning structures are used to place and position the air delivery tube;

[0029] Each first positioning structure is connected to at least one second positioning structure and at least one third positioning structure;

[0030] At least one second positioning structure is connected to at least one first positioning structure and at least one third positioning structure;

[0031] Any third positioning structure is connected to the first positioning structure and / or the second positioning structure.

[0032] In one optional embodiment of this application, the lower shelf further includes a duct for forming an air duct;

[0033] The pipe has multiple holes, and the openings of the holes are opposite to the side of the lower shelf used to place containers.

[0034] Beneficial effects:

[0035] In this embodiment of the container positioning structure, at least one inner limiting member is used to limit the inner wall of the container when placed inside the container from the container opening; at least one outer limiting member is used to limit the outer wall of the container when disposed outside the container; and multiple inclined support members are used to support the edge of the container opening, thereby placing the container in an inclined state. Thus, a container placed on the container positioning structure can be supported by multiple inclined support members and placed in an inclined state, with the interior of the container limited by at least one inner limiting member and the exterior of the container limited by at least one outer limiting member, maintaining the stability of the container placed on the positioning structure.

[0070] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the application or its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0071] In this document, references to "embodiment" or "implementation" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment or implementation may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0072] Please see Figures 1-3d As shown, the container washing machine 10 has a height direction F1 and a width direction F2, which are approximately perpendicular. In some cases, F2 can also be understood as the length direction of the container washing machine 10.

[0073] The container cleaning machine 10 includes an inner tank 110, an upper shelf 210, a main water pipe 410, a lower shelf 220, an upper rotating spray arm 310, and a lower rotating spray arm 320. The upper shelf 210 is detachably installed on the inner tank 110. At least a portion of the upper shelf 210 can be placed into the washing chamber 112 through an opening 114, and the upper shelf 210 can be removed from the inner tank 110 through the opening 114. Compared to the prior art where the nozzle and the upper shelf are directly fixed and cannot be removed, the embodiments of this application facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the upper shelf 210 and the upper rotating spray arm 310. In the prior art, when the nozzle and the upper shelf are directly fixed and cannot be removed, the application scenarios are limited. For example, when it is not necessary to use the upper shelf to place containers, the upper shelf cannot be removed; otherwise, the nozzle fixed to it will also be removed, resulting in the containers on the lower shelf not being cleaned properly. In this embodiment, the rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410 are installed independently and do not need to be fixed by the upper shelf 210. Users can use or remove the upper shelf 210 according to their personal needs.

[0074] When the upper shelf 210 is installed on the inner tank 110, the upper shelf 210, upper rotating spray arm 310, lower shelf 220, and lower rotating spray arm 320 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom in the height direction F1. The upper shelf 210 is separated from the main water pipe 410 and the upper rotating spray arm 310, or in other words, the upper shelf 210 is spaced apart from the main water pipe 410 and the upper rotating spray arm 310 without contact. This avoids contact between the main water pipe 410 and the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the upper shelf 210, which could obstruct the position of the upper shelf 210, thereby increasing the cleaning area of ​​the upper shelf 210 cleaned by the upper rotating spray arm 310. Furthermore, the separation of the upper shelf 210 from the main water pipe 410 and the upper rotating spray arm 310 facilitates the disassembly and installation of the upper shelf 210 relative to the inner tank 110. The upper shelf 210 is a shelf for holding baby bottles and nipples.

[0075] In one scenario, the upper shelf 210 can be directly installed at the edge of the opening 114 of the inner liner 110. In another scenario, the inner liner 110 can have a groove structure formed on its inner side near the opening 114 to create a step, or it can have an outward protrusion on its inner side near the opening 114 to create a step, and the upper shelf 210 can be installed on the step formed on the inner side of the inner liner 110.

[0076] The lower shelf 220 is placed inside the washing chamber 112. The lower shelf 220 can be detachably installed on the inner side of the inner liner 110 or non-detachably installed on the inner side of the inner liner 110. The lower shelf 220 is a shelf with bottle bodies and / or bottle accessories for placing baby bottles.

[0077] The inner liner 110 provides a washing chamber 112 for the container washing machine 10 and serves as the mounting body for the components of the container washing machine 10. The materials of the inner liner 110 include, but are not limited to, plastic and metal. Figure 4 The sidewalls of the inner liner 110 are connected around the edge of the bottom wall 111e to form a washing cavity 112 and an opening 114. For example, the sidewalls of the inner liner 110 include, but are not limited to, a first sidewall 111a, a third sidewall 111c, a second sidewall 111b, and a fourth sidewall 111d connected in sequence.

[0078] For example, the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410 are detachably connected, and the detachable connection methods include, but are not limited to: (1) direct detachable connection; (2) detachable connection through the connecting pipe 330.

[0079] like Figure 6 and Figure 7One of the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410 is provided with a first fastener 318, and the other is provided with a second fastener 414. The first fastener 318 and the second fastener 414 can be connected and separated to achieve a detachable connection between the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410. For example, the first sub-spray arm 311 and the second sub-spray arm 312 of the upper rotating spray arm 310 are connected to both ends of the rotating part 313 of the upper rotating spray arm 310. Two first fasteners 318 are provided on the first sub-spray arm 311 and the second sub-spray arm 312. Each first fastener 318 includes a first elastic segment 318a and a second elastic segment 318b. The first elastic segment 318a and the second elastic segment 318b are connected and bent towards each other to form a bent structure 318c at the connection of the first elastic segment 318a and the second elastic segment 318b. Specifically, one end of the first elastic segment 318a is fixedly connected to the first sub-spray arm 311 and the second sub-spray arm 312, and the other end of the first elastic segment 318a is bent and connected to the second elastic segment 318b. The first elastic segment 318a is approximately perpendicular to the first sub-spray arm 311 and the second sub-spray arm 312. The second elastic segment 318b is inclined relative to the rotating part 313, and the end connecting the second elastic segment 318b to the first elastic segment 318a is closer to the rotating part 313 than the end that is farther away from the first elastic segment 318a. Correspondingly, the main water pipe 410 includes a first pipe body 411 and a second pipe body 412 that are interconnected. The outer diameter of the first pipe body 411 is larger than the outer diameter of the second pipe body 412, forming an arc-shaped step 413 or an inclined step 413 on the outer surface of the connection position between the first pipe body 411 and the second pipe body 412. The inner diameter of the first pipe body 411 is larger than the inner diameter of the rotating part 313, which is disposed inside the first pipe body 411. The inner diameter of the rotating part 313 is approximately the same as the inner diameter of the second pipe body 412. The second fastener 414 includes a convex ring 414a disposed around the outer surface of the first pipe body 411.

[0080] The connection process between the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410: The rotating part 313 is aligned with the opening of the first pipe body 411, and then the rotating part 313 is inserted into the first pipe body 411. At the same time, the second elastic segment 318b is located on the outside of the first pipe body 411 until the part of the second elastic segment 318b close to the first elastic segment 318a contacts the outer surface of the first pipe body 411. The rotating part 313 is then inserted into the pipe body 411. The first elastic segment 318a and the second elastic segment 318b deform under the action of force, so that the bending structure 318c is fastened on the convex ring 414a. Thus, the upper rotating spray arm 310 can rotate around the main water pipe 410 through the connection relationship between the bending structure 318c and the convex ring 414a.

[0081] like Figure 10The upper rotating spray arm 310 is detachably connected to the connecting pipe 330, and the upper rotating spray arm 310 can rotate about the connecting pipe 330 and the main water pipe 410. The connecting pipe 330 and the main water pipe 410 are connected by one of the following methods: clips, screws, adhesive, or welding. The detachable connection method between the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the connecting pipe 330 can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 6 The detachable connection between the upper and middle rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410 will not be described in detail here.

[0082] The non-detachable connection between the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410 includes, but is not limited to, a structure that enables both the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410 to rotate located within the main water pipe 410. For example, such as... Figure 9a and Figure 9b The inner wall of the main water pipe 410 is provided with a groove 414b, and the outer surface of the rotating part 313 is provided with a protrusion 318d. The protrusion 318d is disposed in the groove 414b and can rotate within the groove 414b. An example of the process is as follows: the main water pipe 410 is divided into two parts, the rotating part 313 is placed in a predetermined position within the main water pipe 410, and then the two parts of the main water pipe 410 are welded together. For example, the groove 414b is disposed on the inner wall of the first pipe body 411 and is close to the second pipe body 412.

[0083] like Figure 8 The lower rotating spray arm 320 and the main water pipe 410 can be detached or non-detached. The connection relationship between the lower rotating spray arm 320 and the main water pipe 410 can be referred to the connection method between the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the main water pipe 410, and will not be repeated here.

[0084] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first sub-spray arm 311 and the second sub-spray arm 312 are each provided with a plurality of first spray holes 314, and the third sub-spray arm 321 and the fourth sub-spray arm 322 of the lower rotating spray arm 320 are each provided with a plurality of second spray holes 324. In one embodiment, the opening directions of the plurality of first spray holes 314 and the opening directions of the plurality of second spray holes 324 are upward along the height direction F1, and at least some of the opening directions of the first spray holes 314 and at least some of the opening directions of the second spray holes 324 are inclined relative to the height direction F1. In one embodiment, at least some of the first spray holes 314 on the first sub-spray arm 311 have different opening directions; at least some of the first spray holes 314 on the second sub-spray arm 312 have different opening directions; at least some of the second spray holes 324 on the third sub-spray arm 321 have different opening directions; and at least some of the second spray holes 324 on the fourth sub-spray arm 322 have different opening directions.

[0085] For example, a first sub-spray arm 311 is provided with a first power port 316, and a second sub-spray arm 312 is provided with a second power port 317. The opening direction of the first power port 316 is at least partially opposite to the opening direction of the second power port 317. A third sub-spray arm 321 is provided with a third power port 326, and a fourth sub-spray arm 322 is provided with a fourth power port 327. The opening direction of the third power port 326 is at least partially opposite to the opening direction of the fourth power port 327. In one embodiment, the opening direction of the first power port 316 is partially downward along the height direction F1, and the opening direction of the second power port 327 is partially downward along the height direction F1. In another embodiment, the opening direction of the first power port 316 is partially downward along the height direction F1, and the opening direction of the second power port 317 is perpendicular to the height direction F1. In another embodiment, the opening direction of the first power port 316 and the opening direction of the second power port 317 are both perpendicular to and opposite to the height direction F1. For example, the first power port 316 is located on the side of the first sub-spray arm 311, and the second power port 317 is located on the side of the second sub-spray arm 312. In other optional embodiments, the lower rotating spray arm 320 is provided with only one power port, and the third sub-spray arm 321 is provided with a third power port 326 or the fourth sub-spray arm 322 is provided with a fourth power port 327. In other optional embodiments, the upper rotating spray arm 310 is provided with only one power port, and the first sub-spray arm 311 is provided with a first power port 316 or the second sub-spray arm 312 is provided with a second power port 317.

[0086] In one embodiment, the opening direction of the third power port 326 is downward along the height direction F1, and the opening direction of the fourth power port 327 is also downward along the height direction F1. In another embodiment, the opening direction of the third power port 326 is downward along the height direction F1, and the opening direction of the fourth power port 327 is perpendicular to the height direction F1. In yet another embodiment, the opening directions of both the third power port 326 and the fourth power port 327 are perpendicular to and opposite to the height direction F1; for example, the third power port 326 is located on the side of the third sub-spray arm 321, and the fourth power port 327 is located on the side of the fourth sub-spray arm 322.

[0087] Each power port provides power to the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the lower rotating spray arm 320 when washing liquid is introduced, driving them to rotate. Each spray port cleans items such as baby bottles inside the washing chamber 112 when washing liquid is introduced.

[0088] For example, each arm of the upper rotating spray arm 310 is provided with at least four spray holes in different directions to ensure spray coverage area, and at least one power hole to ensure rotation. Each arm of the lower rotating spray arm 320 is provided with at least three upward spray holes to ensure spray coverage area, and at least one lateral power hole to ensure rotation. Figure 10 For example, the first sub-spray arm 311 is provided with two first power holes 316.

[0089] The upper rotating spray arm 310 and the lower rotating spray arm 320 are structural components that have the functions of water inlet and spraying. They are driven to rotate by water energy while spraying to wash the items. The main water pipe 410 is a pipe body that has the function of conveying washing liquid.

[0090] Combination Figures 5a-5c The container washing machine 10 also includes a top cover 130, which can cover and open the opening 114 of the inner tank 110. Exemplarily, the top cover 130 includes a grip portion 133 and a transparent sealing portion 131. The grip portion 133 is disposed on the outer surface of the sealing portion 131 and is located near or in the middle of the sealing portion 131. The top cover 130 also includes multiple vent holes 132 penetrating the sealing portion 131. The top cover 130 is a sealing cover with vent holes 132, which can discharge water vapor during the drying process. The multiple vent holes 132 are inclined relative to the height direction F1 to achieve an overflow prevention design. Water vapor is discharged from the middle position of the sealing portion 131 along the inclined vent holes 132 to both sides. The positions of the vent holes 132 on both sides are inclined, so if the washing liquid from each spray arm splashes into the vent holes 132, it will flow back into the inner tank 110 along the inclined surface of the vent holes 132.

[0091] The outer surface of the inner liner 110 may be provided with devices such as one or more fans 500, with at least two fans 500 as an example. The container cleaning machine 10 also includes a housing 120 disposed on the outer periphery of the side wall of the inner liner 110, which can cover at least two fans 500 and provide protection for the fans 500 and other devices. At least two fans 500 are used to input gas into the interior of the inner liner 110. For example, any fan 500 has an inlet 502 and an outlet 504 that are interconnected, and the outlet 504 of any fan 500 is connected to a predetermined location. For example, the inner liner 110 is provided with at least two inlets 116 that penetrate the first side wall 111a, and the outlet 504 of any fan 500 is connected to at least one inlet 116 of the inner liner 110. The at least two fans 500 are used to transport gas to a predetermined location inside the inner liner 110. The predetermined location can be the inlet 222 of at least one air duct 221 on the lower shelf 220 inside the washing chamber 112, or it can be another location inside the washing chamber 112 of the inner tub 110. It should be understood that the predetermined location can be set according to actual needs and is not limited here. For example, the air outlet 504 of a fan 500 is connected to an air inlet 116, and the air inlet 116 is connected to the inlets 222 of one or more air ducts 221. For example, the size of the air inlet 116 is larger than the size of one or two air ducts 221. For example, the air inlet 116 includes a first opening 116a and a second opening 116b, the first opening 116a being connected to the inlets 222 of one or two air ducts 221, and the second opening 116b being directly connected to the washing chamber 112.

[0092] At least two fans 500 can deliver gas through a first inlet 116a into the air duct 221 of the lower shelf 220 to dry bottles or bottle accessories placed on the lower shelf 220. At least two fans 500 can also deliver gas directly into the washing chamber 112 through a second inlet 116b to dry items within the washing chamber 112, such as nipples on the upper shelf 210. Exemplarily, the container washing machine 10 also includes a first heating device 610 disposed outside the inner liner 110 for heating the gas delivered by at least one fan 500. In one case, the first heating device 610 is disposed within one of the two fans 500. In another case, the first heating device 610 is disposed within only one of the fans 500. The first heating device 610 can be installed in the air duct inside the fan 500, that is, the first heating device 610 is installed between the air inlet 502 and the air outlet 504, so that the gas transmitted by the air outlet 504 is hot air.

[0093] At least two fans 500 can be disposed on one or more outer surfaces of the side walls of the inner liner 110. For example, two fans 500 may be disposed on the first side wall 111a. The two fans 500 are arranged side by side along the width direction F2, and the projections of the two fans 500 on the inner liner 110 are completely located on the first side wall 111a of the inner liner 110, ensuring that the two fans 500 do not protrude beyond the edge of the inner liner 110, making reasonable use of the space of the inner liner 110. The width of the two fans 500 is approximately equal to that of the inner liner 110. A larger width than two fans can save space; a smaller width than two fans can avoid wasting space. The at least two fans 500 include, but are not limited to, a first fan 510 and a second fan 520.

[0094] The inner liner 110 has a cover portion protruding outward from the edge of the opening 114. For example, a first cover portion 113a protrudes outward from the edge of the opening 114 on the first sidewall 111a of the inner liner 110. The first sidewall 111a and the first cover portion 113a together define a first mounting space 118a, within which at least two fans 500 are disposed. A second cover portion 113b protrudes outward from the edge of the opening 114 on the second sidewall 111b of the inner liner 110. The second sidewall 111b and the second cover portion 113b together define a second mounting space 118b. For example, the container washing machine 10 also includes a water tank 440 of a water supply device 400, disposed within the second mounting space 118b, for storing washing liquid, such as washing water. It is understood that the water tank 440 is connected to the main water pipe 410, and the water tank 440 is used to supply washing liquid to the main water pipe 410. Exemplarily, the container washing machine 10 also includes a display 750, which is disposed within the second mounting space 118, and the display surface of the display 750 is exposed away from the second side wall 111b. Alternatively, the display 750 is a screen with touch control operation and display function. Exemplarily, the first mounting space 118a and the second mounting space 118b are disposed opposite to each other.

[0095] Devices such as an electronic control device 710, a first water pump 420, and a second water pump 430 of a water supply device 400 can be mounted on the outer surface of the bottom wall 111e. The container washing machine 10 also includes a base 140 disposed below the bottom wall 111e in the height direction F1. The base 140 can cover the electronic control device 710, the first water pump 420, and the second water pump 430. The base 140 is connected to the bottom wall 111e, and the base 140 can also be connected to the outer casing 120, for example, the outer edge of the base 140 is flush with the outer edge of the outer casing 120.

[0096] like Figure 4The inner tank 110 has a water inlet 119b for the main water pipe 410 to communicate with the washing liquid. In one embodiment, the water inlet 119b is located on the bottom wall 111e, and exemplaryly, the water inlet 119b is located in the middle of the bottom wall 111e. Exemplarily, the main water pipe 410 is connected to the bottom wall 111e, and the channel of the main water pipe 410 is aligned with the water inlet 119b, so that the channel of the main water pipe 410 communicates with the water inlet 119b. An installation structure 119a is provided on the bottom wall 111e, and the installation structure 119a is fixedly connected to the main water pipe 410. The second water pump 430 is connected to the water tank 440 via the first hose 451 and is also connected to the inner tank 110 via the second hose 452. The second water pump 430 is used to drive the washing liquid in the water tank 440 into the washing chamber 112 of the inner tank 110. The first water pump 420 is used to pressurize the washing liquid in the washing chamber 112 and drive it into the main water pipe 410, and then drive the washing liquid to the lower rotating spray arm 320 and the upper rotating spray arm 310 through the main water pipe 410. The second water pump 430 can be any pump with pumping and draining functions, and the first water pump 420 can be any device with pumping, draining, and pressurizing functions.

[0097] For example, the container washing machine 10 also includes a second heating device 630 for heating the washing liquid driven by the second water pump 430. The electronic control device 710 is electrically connected to the fan 500, display 750, first heating device 610, second heating device 630, first water pump 420, and second water pump 430, for example, via wires. The electronic control device 710 includes a PCB board for controlling the various components and can be fixed to the bottom wall 111e with screws. It should be noted that the electronic control device 710 can also be located on the side wall of the inner tank 110.

[0098] For example, the container washing machine 10 also includes a drain component 460, which communicates with the drain hole 117a of the inner tank 110. The drain component 460 is used to discharge liquid in the washing chamber 112 to the outside. For example, the container washing machine 10 also includes a drain pipe 453, which is sleeved with the drain section 117 at the bottom of the inner tank 110. The drain section 117 communicates with the drain hole 117a. The drain component 460 is disposed on the drain pipe 453 to control the opening and closing of the drain pipe 453. Figure 2bThe liquid first flows from the drain hole 117a of the washing chamber 112 into the drain section 117, and then into the drain pipe 453. When the drain component 460 is opened, the liquid flows along the drain direction F3 to the drain outlet 453a and is then discharged. The drain component 460 is any solenoid valve with control over opening and closing, and the drain component 460 is electrically connected to the electronic control device 710. In one embodiment, the drain component 460 includes a drain pump, which can discharge the liquid in the drain pipe 453 when powered. In another embodiment, the drain component 460 is a drain valve, which can be any solenoid valve with control over opening and closing. The drain valve can discharge the liquid in the drain pipe 453 by gravity through its opening and closing of the drain pipe 453.

[0099] For example, the first water pump 420 is directly fixed to the mounting shell 15 at the bottom of the inner tank 110, and the first water pump 420 pumps water directly within the space of the mounting shell 115 to provide stronger power.

[0100] For example, the mounting housing 115 is connected to the drainage section 117 through the drainage hole 117a, the drainage section 117 and the drainage component 460 are connected through the drainage pipe 453, and the drainage section 117 and the first water pump 420 are arranged adjacent to each other.

[0101] For example, the bottom inner surface of the mounting shell 115 is located at the first water point P1 in the height direction F1, and the drain hole 117a is located at the second water point P2. In the height direction F1, the first water point P1 is lower than the second water point P2. When the drain component 460 is opened, the liquid in the inner liner 110 can be discharged in sequence through the mounting shell 115, drain hole 117a, drain section 117, and drain pipe 453 under the action of force, while a part of the liquid remains in the mounting shell 115 to prevent the first water pump 420 from running dry and being damaged. The force can come from external driving force or gravity.

[0102] It should be noted that when the inner liner 110 contains detergent, the lower shelf 220 and the air inlet 116 are located above the detergent. Figure 2c The container cleaning machine 10 also includes a liquid level sensor 730 electrically connected to the electronic control device 710. The liquid level sensor 730 is installed inside the inner tank 110 and is used to detect the position of the washing liquid inside the inner tank 110. The liquid level sensor 730 is a sensor with non-contact water level sensing function.

[0103] like Figure 11The operation of the water supply device 400 in this embodiment is illustrated as follows: The washing liquid in the water tank 440 enters the inner tank 110 under the action of the second water pump 430. During this process, the washing liquid's temperature is raised by the second heating device 630. After being pressurized by the first water pump 620, the heated washing liquid enters the inlet 415 of the main water pipe 410 through the inlet hole 119b of the inner tank 110. Then, a portion of the washing liquid enters the lower rotating spray arm 320 through the branch outlet 416 of the main water pipe 119b. After entering the lower rotating spray arm 320, the washing liquid is sprayed out through various power holes and all spray holes. The water jets from the power holes provide the power for the rotation of the lower rotating spray arm 320, while the water jets from the spray holes wash the bottle body 21 and accessories of the baby bottle 20 placed on the lower shelf 220. The additional washing liquid from the main water pipe 410 moves upward and enters the inlet 319 of the upper rotating spray arm 310 through the outlet 417. After entering the upper rotating spray arm 310, the washing liquid is sprayed out through the various power holes and all the spray holes of the upper rotating spray arm 310. The water jets sprayed from the power holes provide the power for the rotation of the upper rotating spray arm 310 and spray downward to wash the bottles 21 and accessories of the baby bottle 20 placed on the lower shelf 220. The water jets sprayed from the spray holes wash upward to wash the nipples 22 of the baby bottle 20 placed on the upper shelf 210. After all the washing liquid has been sprayed on the bottles and accessories of the baby bottle 20, it flows back to the bottom of the inner liner 110 under the action of gravity and is discharged through the drain component 460. After all the liquid has been drained, the drying stage begins. At this time, the drain component 460 is closed and the two fans 500 start working. Hot air from the first fan 510 and / or the second fan 520 is blown out from the air outlet 504. Part of it enters the air duct 221 through the inlet 222 of the lower shelf 220, while the other part of the hot air enters the washing chamber 112 directly from the air inlet 116 of the inner liner 110. The hot air entering the air duct 221 of the lower shelf 220 exits from the air outlet of the lower shelf 220 and dries the inner walls of the bottles 21 and accessories of the baby bottles 20 placed on the lower shelf 220. The hot air directly entering the washing chamber 112 directly dries the inner wall of the inner liner 110 and the nipple on the upper shelf 210. The water vapor generated during the drying process is discharged into the air through the exhaust hole 132 on the top cover 130.

[0104] For example, both the upper rotating spray arm 310 and the lower rotating spray arm 320 can rotate around the main water pipe 410. The lower rotating spray arm 310 is located near the bottom of the main water pipe 410, and the upper rotating spray arm 320 is located near the top of the main water pipe 410. It should be noted that in practical applications, the rotation of the upper rotating spray arm 310 can cause the main water pipe 410 to sway, thus affecting the ability of the upper rotating spray arm 310 to rotate around the main water pipe 410 in a stable state. Based on this, as... Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, in this embodiment, the wall thickness of the main water pipe 410 near its bottom end is thicker than that near its top end, thereby increasing the stability of the main water pipe 410 and consequently increasing the stability of the upper rotating spray arm 310 during rotation. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the lower shelf 220 contacts the main water pipe, and the installation position of the lower shelf 220 is adjacent to the installation position of the lower rotating spray arm 320, further enhancing the stability of the main water pipe 410.

[0105] For example, the main water pipe 410 includes a first pipe section 410a, a second pipe section 410b, a third pipe section 410c, and a fourth pipe section 410f connected sequentially from bottom to top in the height direction F1. The first pipe section 410a is used to connect to the bottom of the inner tank 110; the second pipe section 410b is used to connect to the lower rotating spray arm 320 for the lower rotating spray arm 320 to rotate; the third pipe section 41c is used to contact the lower shelf 220 and is limited by the lower shelf 220 to maintain the stability of the main water pipe 410; the fourth pipe section 410f is used to connect to the upper rotating spray arm 210 for the upper rotating spray arm 210 to rotate.

[0106] For example, the outer diameters of the first pipe section 411a, the second pipe section 411b, the third pipe section 411c, and the fourth pipe section 411d decrease sequentially, so that the main water pipe 411 has an upper outer diameter smaller than the lower outer diameter, thereby improving the overall stability of the main water pipe 411 and thus improving the stability of the upper rotating spray arm 310 during rotation.

[0107] The lower shelf 220 includes a mounting hole 224 for the main water pipe 410 to pass through. The lower shelf 220 also includes a retaining ring 223 forming the mounting hole 224, the inner diameter of which is approximately equal to the outer diameter of the third pipe segment 410c. Exemplarily, the outer surface of the pipe wall 410c1 of the third pipe segment 410c can fit against the inner surface of the retaining ring 223.

[0108] For example, the main water pipe 410 also includes a convex ring 418 disposed on the second pipe segment 410b or at the connection between the second pipe segment 410b and the third pipe segment 410c, with a limiting ring 223 placed on the top surface of the convex ring 418. Thus, a portion of the weight of the lower shelf 220 directly acts on the convex ring 418, increasing the weight of the lower part of the lower shelf 220 to improve the stability of the main water pipe 410, especially improving the stability of the main water pipe 410 during the rotation of the upper rotating spray arm 210, ensuring that the upper rotating spray arm 210 can rotate stably around the main water pipe 410.

[0109] For example, the main water pipe 410 also includes a transition section 410d and a connecting section 410e. The connecting section 410e connects the transition section 410d and the fourth pipe section 410f. The transition section 410d connects the third pipe section 410c and the connecting section 410e. The wall thickness 410d1 of the transition section 410d gradually increases from the end connected to the connecting section 410e to the end connected to the third pipe section 410c. The wall thickness 410d1 of the transition section 410d is greater than the wall thickness L1 of the connecting section 410e and less than the wall thickness L2 of the third pipe section 410c. The transition section 410d facilitates the fitting of the retaining ring 223 onto the third pipe section 410c.

[0110] For example, the thickness L2 of the pipe wall 410c1 of the third pipe segment 410c is greater than the thickness of the pipe wall at other locations of the main water pipe 410, thereby increasing the strength of the contact point between the lower shelf 220 and the third pipe segment 411c. For instance, when a portion of the weight of the lower shelf 220 is applied to the third pipe segment 411c, the increased thickness of the pipe wall of the third pipe segment 411c ensures the stability of the third pipe segment 411c.

[0111] like Figures 14-23 This application provides a positioning structure 800, including at least one inner limiting member, at least one outer limiting member, and multiple inclined support members. The at least one inner limiting member is used to be placed inside the container from the opening of the container, thereby limiting the inner wall of the container; the at least one outer limiting member is used to be disposed outside the container, thereby limiting the outer wall of the container; the multiple inclined support members are arranged at intervals between each other, and the multiple inclined support members are connected to the at least one inner limiting member. The multiple inclined support members are used to support the edge of the opening of the container, so that the container is in an inclined state. In this embodiment, the container is taken as the body of a baby bottle.

[0112] In one optional embodiment, the positioning structure 800 includes a first positioning structure 810, comprising at least one inner limiting member 811, at least one outer limiting member 812, and a plurality of first inclined support members 813. The at least one inner limiting member 811, for example, is a first inner limiting member 811, used to be placed inside the first container 21a from the opening of the first container 21a, thereby limiting the inner wall of the first container 21a. The at least one outer limiting member 812, for example, is a first outer limiting member 812, used to be disposed outside the first container 21a, thereby limiting the outer wall of the first container 21a. The plurality of first inclined support members 813 are spaced apart from each other, and the plurality of first inclined support members 813 are connected to the first inner limiting member 811. The plurality of first inclined support members 813 are used to support the opening edge of the first container 21a, thereby causing the first container 21a to be in an inclined state.

[0113] For example, the first positioning structure 810 further includes a first support chassis 814 connected to a plurality of first inclined support members 813; a portion of at least two of the plurality of first inclined support members 813 extends upward from the top surface 814a of the first support chassis 814; the distance between the top surface 813a of the at least two first inclined support members 813 and the top surface 814a of the first support chassis 814 is different, so that the first container 21a is placed on the plurality of first inclined support members 813 in an inclined state. For example, a first outer limiting member 812 is connected to the first support chassis 814 and the first outer limiting member 812 is disposed on the top surface 814a of the first support chassis 814.

[0114] The first positioning structure 810 also includes a first reinforcing chassis 815, which is connected to at least two of the plurality of first inclined support members 813. The first reinforcing chassis 815 is surrounded by and spaced apart from the first supporting chassis 814. Both the first reinforcing chassis 815 and the first limiting body 811a of the first inner limiting member 811 are arc-shaped structures. The opening direction defined by the first reinforcing chassis 815 is opposite to the opening direction defined by the first limiting body 811a of the first inner limiting member 811. For example, a portion of the structure of the plurality of first inclined support members 813 extends inward to the inner surface of the first support chassis 814 and connects with the plurality of first limiting walls 811b of the first inner limiting member 811 and the two ends of the first reinforcing chassis 815, so that the first support chassis 814, the plurality of first support members 813, the first inner limiting member 811 and the first reinforcing chassis 815 are connected together to ensure the strength of the first positioning structure 810, thereby providing stable support and limiting for the first container 21a.

[0115] One end of each of the plurality of first limiting walls 811b is connected to the first limiting body 811a, and the other end of each of the plurality of first limiting walls 811b is connected to some or all of the plurality of first inclined support members 813, wherein two of the first limiting walls 811b are connected to the two ends of the first reinforcing chassis 815 through two first inclined support members 813. For example, the plurality of first limiting walls 811b are inclined relative to the top surface 813a of the plurality of first inclined support members 813.

[0116] For example, the first limiting body 811a of the first inner limiting member 811 has an arc-shaped structure, and the first outer limiting member 812 has an arc-shaped structure. The opening direction defined by the first limiting body 811a is opposite to the opening direction defined by the first outer limiting member 812. That is, the opening direction defined by the first outer limiting member 812 is the same as the opening direction defined by the first reinforcing chassis 815.

[0117] There is one first inner limiting member 811 and one first outer limiting member 812. The height of one or more first inclined support members 813 farther from the first outer limiting member 812 is higher than the height of one or more first inclined support members 813 closer to the first outer limiting member 812, so that when the first container 21a is placed on multiple first inclined support members 813, the outer wall of the first container 21a can contact the first outer limiting member 812 and be limited by the first outer limiting member 812. Of course, it is also possible to make the inner wall of the first container 21a contact the first inner limiting member 811 and be limited by the first inner limiting member 811. For example, the height of the first inclined support member 813 farther from the first outer limiting member 812 gradually decreases from the height of the first inclined support member 813 closer to the first outer limiting member 812.

[0118] In one optional embodiment, the positioning structure 800 includes a second positioning structure 820, comprising at least one inner limiting member 821, at least one outer limiting member 822, and a plurality of second inclined support members 823. The at least one inner limiting member 821, for example, a second inner limiting member 821, is used to be placed inside the first container 21a or the second container 21b from the opening of the first container 21a or the second container 21b, thereby limiting the inner wall of the first container 21a or the second container 21b. The at least one outer limiting member 822 comprises two... For example, two second outer limiting members 822 are used to be disposed outside the first container 21a or the second container 21b to limit the outer wall of the first container 21a or the second container 21b; a plurality of second inclined support members 823 are arranged at intervals between each other, the plurality of second inclined support members 823 are connected to the second inner limiting member 821, and the plurality of second inclined support members 823 are used to support the opening edge of the first container 21a or the second container 21b, so that the first container 21a or the second container 21b is in an inclined state.

[0119] For example, the second positioning structure 820 further includes a second support chassis 824 connected to a plurality of second inclined support members 823; a portion of at least two of the plurality of second inclined support members 823 extends upward from the top surface 824a of the second support chassis 824; the distance between the top surface 823a of the at least two second inclined support members 823 and the top surface 824a of the second support chassis 824 is different, so that the first container 21a or the second container 21b is placed on the plurality of second inclined support members 823 in an inclined state. For example, a second outer limiting member 822 is connected to the second support chassis 8124 and the second outer limiting member 822 is disposed on the top surface 824a of the second support chassis 824. For example, the two second outer limiting members 822 include a main limiting member 822a and an auxiliary limiting member 822b. The main limiting member 822a is connected to the second support chassis 8124 and is disposed on the top surface 824a of the second support chassis 824. The auxiliary limiting member 822b is directly disposed on the pipe 900 of the lower shelf 220.

[0120] The second positioning structure 820 also includes a second reinforcing chassis 825, which is connected to at least two of the plurality of second inclined support members 823. The second reinforcing chassis 825 is surrounded by and spaced apart from the second supporting chassis 824. Both the second reinforcing chassis 825 and the second limiting body 821a of the second inner limiting member 821 are arc-shaped structures. The opening direction defined by the second reinforcing chassis 825 is opposite to the opening direction defined by the second limiting body 821a of the second inner limiting member 821. For example, a portion of the structure of the plurality of second inclined support members 823 extends inward to the inner surface of the second support chassis 824 and connects with the plurality of second limiting walls 821b of the second inner limiting member 821 and the two ends of the second reinforcing chassis 825, so that the second support chassis 824, the plurality of second support members 823, the second inner limiting member 821 and the second reinforcing chassis 825 are connected together to ensure the strength of the second positioning structure 820, thereby providing stable support and limiting for the first container 21a or the second container 21b.

[0121] One end of each of the plurality of second limiting walls 821b is connected to the second limiting body 821a, and the other end of each of the plurality of second limiting walls 821b is connected to some or all of the plurality of second inclined support members 823, wherein two of the second limiting walls 821b are connected to the two ends of the second reinforcing chassis 825 through two second inclined support members 823. For example, the plurality of second limiting walls 821b are inclined relative to the top surface 823a of the plurality of second inclined support members 823.

[0122] For example, two second outer limiting members 822, namely the main limiting member 822a and the auxiliary limiting member 822b, are disposed opposite to each other, and the second inner limiting member 821 is located between the main limiting member 822a and the auxiliary limiting member 822b. For example, the height of the main limiting member 822a is greater than the height of the auxiliary limiting member 822b.

[0123] For example, the height of one or more second inclined supports 823 farther from the main limiting member 822a is higher than the height of one or more second inclined supports 823 closer to the main limiting member 822a, so that when the first container 21a or the second container 21b is placed on the multiple second inclined supports 823, the contact area between the outer wall of the first container 21a or the second container 21b and the main limiting member 822a is greater than the contact area between the outer wall of the first container 21a or the second container 21b and the auxiliary limiting member 822b. For example, the height of the second inclined supports 823 farther from the main limiting member 822a gradually decreases from the height of the second inclined supports 823 closer to the main limiting member 822a. Wherein, the opening of the second container 21b is larger than the opening of the first container 21a, and when the second container 21b is placed on the second positioning structure 820, the outer wall of the second container 21b can be restricted by the main limiting member 822a and the auxiliary limiting member 822b.

[0124] To increase the stability of the positioning structure 800, such as the second positioning structure 820, in supporting and limiting different containers, in one optional embodiment of this application, all second inclined support members 823 are provided with a step structure 826 to define a first step surface 826a and a second step surface 826b with different heights. The first step surface 826a is closer to the second inner limiting member 821 than the second step surface 826b, and the height of the first step surface 826a is lower than the height of the second step surface 826b. The first step surface 826a is used to support the first container 21a, and the second step surface 826b is used to support the second container 21b. It should be noted that the step surface of the step structure 826 in this embodiment is not limited to two, but can also be three or other numbers. It should also be noted that other embodiments of this application can also be provided with a step structure, for example, the first positioning structure 810 can also include a step structure, which can be referred to in the step structure 826, and will not be described again here.

[0125] An alternative embodiment, such as Figures 14-23The positioning structure 800 includes a third positioning structure 830, comprising at least one inner limiting member 831 and a plurality of third tilting support members 833. The at least one inner limiting member 831, for example, is a third inner limiting member 831, used to be placed inside the third container 23 from its opening, thereby limiting the inner wall of the third container 23. The plurality of third tilting support members 833 are spaced apart from each other and connected to the at least one third inner limiting member 831. The plurality of third tilting support members 833 support the edge of the opening of the third container 23, thereby placing the third container 23 in an tilted state. In this embodiment, the third container is exemplified by a bottle accessory such as an air duct, and can also be referred to as a bottle anti-colic air duct.

[0126] For example, all third inclined support members 833 are provided with a stepped structure 836 to define a first stepped surface 836a and a second stepped surface 836b with different heights. The first stepped surface 836a is closer to the third inner limiting member 831 than the second stepped surface 836b. The first stepped surface 836a is used to support the first type of air guide tube, and the second stepped surface 836b is used to support the second type of air guide tube. It should be noted that the stepped surface of the stepped structure 836 in this embodiment is not limited to two, but can also be three or other numbers.

[0127] For example, the third positioning structure 830 also includes a third support chassis 834, which is connected to a plurality of third inclined supports 833. At least two of the third inclined supports 833 extend upward from the top surface 834a of the third support chassis 834. The distance between the top surface 833a of the at least two third inclined supports 833 and the top surface 834 of the support chassis 834 is different, so that the third container 23 is placed on the plurality of third inclined supports 833 in an inclined state.

[0128] For example, the third positioning structure 830 further includes a third reinforcing chassis 835, which is connected to at least two of the plurality of third inclined supports 833. The third reinforcing chassis 835 is surrounded by and spaced apart from the third supporting chassis 834. Thus, the plurality of third inclined supports 833 connect the third inner limiting member 831, the third supporting chassis 834, and the third reinforcing chassis 835, thereby greatly increasing the stability of the third positioning structure 830.

[0129] For example, there are two third inner limiting members 831, including a main limiting member 831c and an auxiliary limiting member 831d, with the auxiliary limiting member 831d disposed on the top surface of the third reinforcing chassis 835. The third limiting body 831a of both the third reinforcing chassis 835 and the main limiting member 831c is an arc-shaped structure, and the opening direction defined by the third reinforcing chassis 835 is opposite to the opening direction defined by the third limiting body 831a. The main limiting member 831c includes a third limiting body 831a and multiple third limiting walls 831b. The third limiting body 831a is an arc-shaped structure; one end of each of the multiple third limiting walls 831b is connected to the third limiting body 831a, and the other end of each of the multiple third limiting walls 831b is connected to some or all of the multiple third inclined support members 833; the multiple third limiting walls 831b are inclined relative to the top surface 833a of the multiple third inclined support members 833.

[0130] like Figures 14-23 This application provides a lower shelf 220, which includes one or more positioning structures 800, and the positioning structure 800 is any of the positioning structures 800 in the above embodiments.

[0131] For example, the lower shelf 220 is provided with multiple positioning structures 800 for placing containers, such as the body of a baby bottle and bottle accessories like an air vent. The positioning structures 800 may include a first positioning structure 810 for placing and positioning a first container 21a (e.g., the size of the first bottle opening), and a second positioning structure 820 for placing and positioning a second container 21b (e.g., the size of the second bottle opening). The positioning structures 800 may also include a third positioning structure 830 for placing and positioning bottle accessories like an air vent 23. The positioning structures 800 may have one or more structures, such as an inner limiting structure for extending into the container from its opening, a support structure for supporting the edge of the container opening to tilt the container, and an outer limiting structure on the outer surface of the container to restrict movement. This ensures the container is stable when placed on the lower shelf 220 and prevents water accumulation at the container opening, which would hinder drying.

[0132] For example, any first positioning structure 810 is connected to at least one second positioning structure 820 and at least one third positioning structure 830. For instance, any first positioning structure 810 may be connected to two second positioning structures 820 and two third positioning structures 830.

[0133] For example, at least one second positioning structure 820 is connected to at least one first positioning structure 810 and at least one third positioning structure 830. For example, any one of the second positioning structures 820 is connected to two first positioning structures 810 and two third positioning structures 830.

[0134] For example, any third positioning structure 830 is connected to the first positioning structure 810 and / or the second positioning structure 820. For instance, any third positioning structure 830 may be connected to a first positioning structure 810 and a second positioning structure 820.

[0135] For example, the lower shelf 220 also includes a mounting hole 224 located in the central region of the lower shelf 220. It is understood that the mounting hole 224 is for the main water pipe 410 to pass through. The mounting hole 224 is formed by a retaining ring 223 surrounding it. A plurality of first positioning structures 810 are disposed at a plurality of corner positions of the lower shelf 220, a plurality of second positioning structures 820 are disposed around the mounting hole 224 on the periphery of the lower shelf 220, and a plurality of third positioning structures 830 are disposed on the sides of the lower shelf 220.

[0136] For example, at least one first inclined support 813 and at least one second inclined support 823 are connected.

[0137] For example, at least one first inclined support member 813 and at least one third inclined support member 833 are connected.

[0138] For example, at least one second inclined support 823 and at least one third inclined support 833 are connected.

[0139] The lower shelf 220 also includes a pipe 900 for forming an air duct 221. Exemplarily, the pipe 900 is fixedly connected to the first support base 814 of any first positioning structure 810 via two first connectors 225a. Exemplarily, the pipe 900 is directly fixedly connected to the second support base 824 of any second positioning structure 820. Exemplarily, the pipe 900 is fixedly connected to the second support base 824 of any second positioning structure 820 via a second connector 225b. Exemplarily, the pipe 900 is both fixedly connected and directly fixedly connected to the second support base 824 of any second positioning structure 820 via the second connector 225b.

[0140] For example, the pipe 900 includes a first pipe body 910 and a second pipe body 920 located on both sides of the lower shelf 220. The first pipe body 910 and the second pipe body 920 may have the same shape or different shapes. For example, both the first pipe body 910 and the second pipe body 920 have a peripheral portion 900a located on the lower shelf 220, that is, the pipe 900 has a peripheral portion 900a located on the lower shelf 220. The first support base 814 of the first positioning structure 810 is fixedly connected to the peripheral portion 900a of the pipe 900 located on the lower shelf 220 by two first connectors 225a, and the second support base 824 of the second positioning structure 820 is fixedly connected to the peripheral portion 900a of the pipe 900 located on the lower shelf 220 by a second connector 225b. For example, both the first tube body 910 and the second tube body 920 have a middle portion 900b located in the lower shelf 220, that is, the pipe 900 has a middle portion 900b located in the lower shelf 220, and the second support base 824 of the second positioning structure 820 is directly fixedly connected to the middle portion 900b of the pipe 900 located in the lower shelf 220.

[0141] For example, the third support base 834 of the third positioning structure 830 is directly fixedly connected to the peripheral portion 900a of the pipe 900 located on the lower shelf 220.

[0142] For example, both the first support chassis 814 and the first reinforcing chassis 815 are connected to one or more air-guiding connecting pipes 930, such as the air-guiding connecting pipes 930 being connected to the bottom surface of the first support chassis 814 and the first reinforcing chassis 815. Alternatively, the air-guiding connecting pipes 930 may be connected to the bottom and side surfaces of the first support chassis 814 and the first reinforcing chassis 815. When the first container 21a is placed on the first positioning structure 810, the opening edge of the first container 21a may or may not be placed on the air-guiding connecting pipe 930. The air-guiding connecting pipe 930 is connected to the pipe 900 of the lower shelf 220, and the air-guiding connecting pipe 930 is provided with a jet nozzle 901. When the first container 21a is placed on the first positioning structure 810, the jet nozzle 901 is aligned with the opening of the first container 21a. Thus, when gas is introduced into the pipe 900, the gas can be transferred from the jet nozzle 901 to the interior of the first container 21a.

[0143] For example, the pipe 900 is provided with other air nozzles 901, which can be located at the positions of the second positioning structure 820 and the third positioning structure 830. When the first container 21a or the second container 21b is placed on the second positioning structure 820, the other air nozzles 901 are aligned with the openings of the first container 21a or the second container 21b. When the third container 23, such as the air guide pipe 23, is placed on the third positioning structure 830, the other air nozzles 901 are aligned with the opening of the third container 23.

[0144] For example, such as Figure 16 As shown, the lower shelf 220 has an inlet 222 including a first inlet 222a, a second inlet 222b, and a third inlet 222c. The first inlet 222a is used to communicate with the middle portion 900b of the pipe 900, the second inlet 222b is used to communicate with the peripheral portion 900a of the pipe 900, and the third inlet 222c is used to communicate with the air duct 930 of the pipe 900.

[0145] For example, such as Figure 16 As shown, the lower shelf 220 also includes an air guide plate 226, which has an air guide channel 226a. When the lower shelf 220 is installed inside the inner liner 110, the air guide channel 226a communicates with a predetermined position of the inner liner 110. For example, the air guide plate 226 can be tilted. For example, a baffle plate is provided below the air guide plate 226 to prevent air from blowing downwards towards the lower shelf 220.

[0146] For example, such as Figure 15 As shown, the pipe 900 has multiple holes 902, the openings of which are opposite to the side of the lower shelf 220 used to place containers. When liquid enters the pipe 900, the holes 902 can transfer the liquid inside the pipe 900 to the outside of the pipe 900.

[0147] It is understandable that the container washing machine 10 may include Figures 14-23 The positioning structure 800 or the lower shelf 220 in any embodiment.

Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
