Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bottle washing technology, and in particular to a platform-type bottle washing device. Background Technology

[0002] In today's industrial production, especially in sectors like food and beverage, daily chemical products, and pharmaceuticals that rely on packaging containers for product sales, product quality and safety are fundamental to market success. The cleanliness of the containers before liquid filling directly determines the product's quality performance during storage, transportation, and sales.

[0003] Traditional bottle washing methods rely primarily on manual labor. During manual cleaning, workers use cleaning tools to scrub the inner and outer walls of each container individually. This method is extremely inefficient; a skilled worker can only clean a very limited number of containers per unit of time, severely restricting production efficiency and hindering the company's capacity expansion. Furthermore, with labor costs rising year by year, employing a large number of cleaning workers undoubtedly increases the company's operational burden, keeping product costs high and weakening the company's price competitiveness in the market.

[0004] More importantly, the effectiveness of manual cleaning is inconsistent. Differences in worker techniques, pressure, and cleaning time mean that some containers may not be thoroughly cleaned. The inner walls may retain impurities and oil from previous production processes, while the outer walls may be covered in dust, fingerprints, and other stains. These residual impurities, after liquid filling, can not only contaminate the product, affecting its taste and shelf life, but also pose a serious threat to consumer health, especially in the pharmaceutical industry.

[0032] The chain assembly includes multiple chain bodies 9 disposed outside the drive sprocket 5, driven sprocket 6, tension sprocket 7 and flushing sprocket 8. The multiple chain bodies 9 are connected to form a chain. Bottle support tubes 91 are fixed on both sides of the top of the chain body 9. A connecting groove 92 is opened at the front end of the chain body 9, and a connecting pin 93 is fixed at the rear end of the chain body 9. Between two adjacent chain bodies 9, the connecting groove 92 at the front end of one chain body 9 is engaged with the connecting pin 93 at the rear end of the other chain body 9 and connected to it.

[0033] The front and rear ends of the top of the water receiving pool 1 are provided with outer straight guide rails 10, and an inner straight guide rail 101 is provided on one side of the outer straight guide rail 10. The chains at the front and rear ends of the top of the water receiving pool 1 are located between the outer straight guide rail 10 and the inner straight guide rail 101. The two ends of the two sets of outer straight guide rails 10 and inner straight guide rails 101 are fixed with arc-shaped outer guide rails 102. The four arc-shaped outer guide rails 102 are located outside the driving sprocket 5, the driven sprocket 6 and the two flushing sprockets 8, respectively.

[0034] Specifically, bottle cleaning is a crucial step in industrial production. At a specific location on the water injection pipe 81, a suitable external water pipe must be precisely connected. This external water pipe is made of high-strength, water-pressure-resistant engineering plastic to ensure that water is injected into the water injection pipe 81 at an appropriate flow rate and volume. After entering the water injection pipe 81, the water follows a predetermined path, splitting into two streams that flow into the connecting pipe 84 and the flushing pipe 82 respectively.

[0035] The water flowing into the connecting pipe 84 travels directly towards the spray plate 83. The spray plate 83 features a special ring-shaped design; as water flows in, it is continuously sprayed outwards through evenly distributed water outlets. These fan-shaped water streams comprehensively cover the outer wall of the bottle, effectively washing away various stains such as dust and oil. Simultaneously, the water flowing into the flushing pipe 82 is sprayed vertically downwards. The outlet of the flushing pipe 82 creates a fine water curtain, specifically targeting the top of the bottle below. In this way, by simultaneously rinsing the top and sides of the bottle, the cleaning process is quick and thorough, ensuring the bottle surface is spotless.

[0036] The bottle conveying section of this cleaning system is constructed from multiple chain bodies 9, forming a complete chain system. The chain bodies 9 are forged from robust and durable alloy steel, and their connection method is specially designed, ensuring a tight yet flexible connection between each chain body 9. Multiple chain bodies 9 are linked end-to-end to form a stable and smoothly operating chain. This chain cleverly wraps around the outside of the drive sprocket 5, driven sprocket 6, tension sprocket 7, and flushing sprocket 8, forming a closed-loop conveying structure. Bottle support cylinders 91 are firmly fixed to both sides of the top of each chain body 9 using a high-strength welding process. The bottle support cylinders 91 are made of lightweight yet high-strength aluminum alloy, and their shape is designed as a concave arc to fit the bottom of common bottles, with a frosted surface to increase friction. In actual operation, simply invert the bottle onto the outside of the bottle support 91, and use the bottle's own weight and the friction of the bottle support 91 to firmly fix the bottle and easily complete the bottle loading operation.

[0037] Once the entire cleaning system is ready, the drive motor 54 is officially started. The drive motor 54 serves as the power core of the entire conveying process. After starting, its output shaft rotates at high speed, driving the connected gear 2 53 to rotate synchronously. The number of teeth in gear 2 53 is precisely calculated and matched with the module of gear 1 52. When gear 2 53 rotates, it meshes tightly with gear 1 52, thus driving gear 1 52 to rotate smoothly. Gear 1 52 is mounted on a specially designed shaft 51. The shaft 51 is made of high-strength alloy steel and undergoes precise turning and heat treatment processes, possessing excellent rigidity and wear resistance. As gear 1 52 rotates, shaft 51 also rotates synchronously, thereby driving the drive sprocket 5 mounted on the other end of shaft 51 to begin rotating. The rotation of the drive sprocket 5 provides a continuous and stable driving force for the chain, allowing the chain to move smoothly along a predetermined trajectory on the top of the water receiving pool 1. As the chain moves, the bottle support 91 and the bottle body on top of it will be driven by the chain to move slowly toward the position of the flushing sprocket 8 and enter the cleaning area in an orderly manner to receive all-round cleaning from the spray plate 83 and the flushing pipe 82.

[0038] To ensure the stability and accuracy of the chain during movement, the outer straight guide rail 10, the inner straight guide rail 101, and the arc-shaped outer guide rail 102 are strategically positioned on the outside of the chain. The outer straight guide rail 10 and the inner straight guide rail 101 are made of high-precision stainless steel with a mirror-polished surface, effectively reducing friction between the chain and the guide rails. These two straight guide rails are parallel to each other, limiting and guiding the chain from the outside and inside respectively, ensuring the chain remains stable and does not deviate during straight-line operation. The arc-shaped outer guide rail 102 is made of the same material as the straight guide rails but with a specially bent profile; its curvature perfectly matches the chain's trajectory at turns. When the chain reaches a turning area, the arc-shaped outer guide rail 102 functions to guide the chain smoothly through the turn, ensuring the continuity and stability of the entire conveying process.

[0039] It is important to note that in actual production operations, the chain may loosen over long periods of operation, affecting the stability and accuracy of the conveying process. Therefore, the position of the tension sprocket 7 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage needs to increase the chain tension and ensure that the chain is always taut. The specific adjustment method is as follows: the operator simply pushes the support plate 71, which is made of high-strength carbon steel and has a robust structure. During the pushing process, the support plate 71 will drive the connected lead screw 72 to move laterally within the anchor bolt 73. After adjusting the tension sprocket 7 to the desired position, the operator needs to rotate the locking nut 74, which is made of high-strength copper alloy and has good wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The locking nut 74 is tightly locked to both sides of the anchor bolt 73, forming a secure lock on the lead screw 72. Simultaneously, the support plate 71 is further fixed to the surrounding equipment frame using the fixing bolts 75, which undergo special rust-proofing treatment to ensure long-term rust-free operation. Through the above series of operations, the position of tension sprocket 7 can be adjusted efficiently and accurately, ensuring the stable operation of the entire bottle cleaning system.
