Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model is a beer barrel filling and cleaning valve, belonging to the field of filling and cleaning. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, draft beer is becoming increasingly popular, and beer kegs used to hold draft beer can be repeatedly filled with beer using filling machines, making them reusable and durable. Current beer keg filling utilizes specialized filling valves, which consist of a valve body and a valve stem. The valve stem is axially slidably mounted within the valve body, and the valve body has a beer flow channel located outside the valve stem. The upper end of this beer flow channel extends through the upper end of the valve body. For example, patent number CN201610195321.0 describes a beer keg filling and cleaning valve, which is fixed to the frame of a conveyor belt. After the beer keg is conveyed to its designated position, the subsequent cleaning and filling process is completed.

[0003] As described in the aforementioned patent, during actual operation, after the beer keg is transported to its designated position by the conveyor belt, it remains on the conveyor belt before subsequent cleaning and filling are completed. However, working on the conveyor belt results in poor stability. Therefore, this application proposes a beer keg filling and cleaning valve for stable cleaning and filling. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a beer barrel filling and cleaning valve.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0006] A beer keg filling and cleaning valve includes a cleaning valve body and a support frame. A valve stem is disposed within the cleaning valve body. The cleaning valve body is mounted on the support frame, and a lifting cylinder for driving the valve stem is disposed on the support frame. A secondary L-shaped plate is fixedly disposed on the support frame. A moving component is disposed on the secondary L-shaped plate. The moving component is connected to the L-shaped plate. A secondary lifting cylinder is mounted on the back of the L-shaped plate. The output end of the secondary lifting cylinder is connected to a clamping component. The clamping component is provided with two mutually movable clamping plates.

[0007] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a fixed plate connected to the output end of the auxiliary lifting cylinder, a horizontal plate fixedly mounted on the fixed plate, a rotary motor fixedly mounted on the fixed plate, an output end of the rotary motor connected to a meshing gear, and two rack plates meshing on the meshing gear.

[0008] Furthermore, both the rack plate and the meshing gear are arranged in contact with the side of the horizontal plate, and two blocks are fixedly provided on the horizontal plate. The blocks are connected to the corresponding rack plates by telescopic rods.

[0009] Furthermore, two sliding grooves are provided on the horizontal plate, the rack plate and the corresponding clamping plate are fixedly connected by a connecting rod, and multiple auxiliary telescopic rods are fixedly provided between the fixing plate and the L-shaped plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the movable component includes an electric telescopic rod fixed to the secondary L-shaped plate, the output end of the electric telescopic rod is connected to a movable block, the secondary L-shaped plate is provided with a secondary sliding groove, and the bottom end of the movable block is fixed with a through rod that slides through the secondary sliding groove, the through rod being connected to the L-shaped plate.

[0011] Furthermore, each of the four corners at the bottom of the movable block is equipped with a caster wheel.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] First, the support frame is placed on one side of the conveyor belt and installed on the ground. After the beer barrel is in position on the conveyor belt, the auxiliary lifting cylinder drives the designed clamping component to move, so that the clamping plate on the clamping component slowly approaches the beer barrel on the conveyor belt, and finally clamps the beer barrel with the designed clamping component.

[0014] Then, the auxiliary lifting cylinder is used to drive the clamped beer keg to reset, so the subsequent work is not carried out on the conveyor belt, making the subsequent work more stable. The lifting cylinder is activated, which ultimately drives the valve stem to move upward until the valve stem pushes open the beer spear. Then, the beer keg is cleaned first, and finally the filling work is completed. Therefore, the design of this application is simple, and the specific operation avoids working on the conveyor belt, greatly improving the overall stability. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a beer barrel filling and cleaning valve, including a cleaning valve body 1 and a support frame 2. A valve stem 3 is provided inside the cleaning valve body 1. The cleaning valve body 1 is mounted on the support frame 2, and a lifting cylinder 4 for driving the valve stem 3 is provided on the support frame 2. A secondary L-shaped plate 17 is fixedly provided on the support frame 2. A moving component is provided on the secondary L-shaped plate 17. The moving component is connected to an L-shaped plate 5. A secondary lifting cylinder 6 is installed on the back of the L-shaped plate 5. The output end of the secondary lifting cylinder 6 is connected to a clamping component. Two mutually movable clamping plates 7 are provided on the clamping component.

[0023] See Figure 1-3The clamping assembly includes a fixed plate 8 connected to the output end of the auxiliary lifting cylinder 6. A horizontal plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 8. A rotary motor 10 is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 8. The output end of the rotary motor 10 is connected to a meshing gear 11. Two rack plates 12 are meshed on the meshing gear 11. Both the rack plates 12 and the meshing gear 11 are in contact with the side of the horizontal plate 9. Two blocks are fixedly mounted on the horizontal plate 9. The blocks are connected to the corresponding rack plates 12 via telescopic rods 13. Two openings are provided on the horizontal plate 9. A sliding groove 14 is provided. The rack plate 12 and the corresponding clamping plate 7 are fixedly connected by a connecting rod 15. Multiple auxiliary telescopic rods 16 are fixedly provided between the fixed plate 8 and the L-shaped plate 5. The auxiliary lifting cylinder 6 drives the meshing gear 11 to rotate, so as to drive the two rack plates 12 to move away from each other or towards each other. Finally, the clamping plate 7 connected to the rack plate 12 by the connecting rod 15 will also move towards each other or away from each other. In this way, the clamping plate 7 completes the clamping of the beer barrel. The designed telescopic rods and auxiliary telescopic rods ensure that the corresponding designed components have a good support effect.

[0024] See Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The movable component includes an electric telescopic rod 18 fixed on the secondary L-shaped plate 17. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 18 is connected to a movable block 19. A secondary sliding groove 20 is provided on the secondary L-shaped plate 17. A through rod 21, which slides through the secondary sliding groove 20, is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the movable block 19. The through rod 21 is connected to the L-shaped plate 5. Universal wheels 22 are installed at the four corners of the bottom end of the movable block 19. A support pad 23 is fixedly provided on the secondary L-shaped plate 17. A wine inlet pipe and an emptying pipe are provided on the cleaning valve body 1. Both the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are equipped with pneumatic valves. After cleaning and other work is completed, the electric telescopic rod 18 is activated to drive the movement of the moving block 19, which in turn drives the L-shaped plate 5 connected by the through rod 21 and its components to move. The movement moves the barrel onto another conveyor belt. The casters 22 ensure stable movement and provide good support for the designed components. The design function of the support pad 23 is to provide support for the barrel being cleaned during the cleaning process. The support pad 23 is a partial support for the barrel being cleaned.

[0025] In actual operation, the support frame 2 is placed on one side of the conveyor belt and installed on the ground. After the conveyor belt reaches the position, the auxiliary lifting cylinder 6 drives the designed clamping component to move, so that the clamping plate 7 on the clamping component slowly approaches the beer barrel on the conveyor belt, and finally clamps the beer barrel with the designed clamping component.

[0026] Then, the auxiliary lifting cylinder 6 is used to drive the clamped beer barrel to reset, so the subsequent work is not carried out on the conveyor belt, making the subsequent work more stable. The lifting cylinder 4 is activated, which ultimately drives the valve stem 3 to move upward until the valve stem pushes open the beer spear. Then, the beer barrel is cleaned first, and finally the filling work is completed. Therefore, the design of this application is simple, and the specific operation avoids working on the conveyor belt, which greatly improves the overall stability. The specific components on the cleaning valve body 1 are all existing publicly disclosed structures, and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] Although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
