[0002] In industries such as beverages, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals, bottle cleaning is a critical step in the production process. Traditional cleaning equipment often uses fixed spraying or immersion methods, which have problems such as many cleaning dead spots and low water pressure utilization.

[0003] In existing technologies, bottle cleaning methods mainly involve fixed bottle cleaning and mechanical cleaning. This linear bottle conveying method results in insufficient cleaning of the bottom and sides of the bottle. Furthermore, using a rotating robotic arm for cleaning increases the cost of robotic arm maintenance and personnel upkeep. Therefore, a tilting bottle transport and cleaning device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the current bottle cleaning methods, which mostly involve fixed bottle cleaning and mechanical cleaning. This linear conveying method results in insufficient cleaning of the bottom and sides of the bottles, and the use of rotating robotic arms for cleaning also increases the cost of robotic arm maintenance and personnel upkeep.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] The present invention is as follows: a tilting bottle transport and cleaning device, comprising a conveyor belt, a tilting cleaning component for tilting and cleaning bottles at the top of the conveyor belt, and a collection component for assisting in wastewater discharge at the top of the conveyor belt.

[0007] The flipping cleaning assembly includes two parallel limiting plates positioned above the conveyor belt. A water storage tank is located on one side of each limiting plate. A spiral channel is located inside the water storage tank. Three nozzles for cleaning bottles are located inside the spiral channel. A water inlet pipe is located at the top of the water storage tank. A water pump is connected to one end of the water inlet pipe. The three nozzles are located at the top and both sides of the spiral channel. The spiral channel rotates 180° from one end to the other.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the collecting component includes a plurality of drainage holes disposed on both sides of the conveyor belt, a water receiving trough disposed below the drainage holes, and a splash-proof baffle disposed on the top of the water receiving trough.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a drain pipe is provided on one side of the water receiving tank, a drain pump is provided on one side of the drain pipe, and the drain pipe is located on one side of the transmission belt.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the bottom of the water receiving tank is provided with an inclined part, the downward inclined end of the inclined part is located on one side of the drain pipe, and the top of the inclined part is 3cm away from the top of the water receiving tank.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the interior of the splash guard is provided with a cavity, and a plurality of honeycomb holes are opened on one side of the splash guard.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0026] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to illustrate some embodiments of the utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0028] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes a tilting bottle transport and cleaning device, including a conveyor belt 1, a tilting cleaning component 2 for tilting and cleaning bottles is provided on the top of the conveyor belt 1, and a collection component 3 for assisting in the discharge of wastewater is provided on the top of the conveyor belt 1.

[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the flipping cleaning assembly 2 includes two parallel limiting plates 201 positioned above the conveyor belt 1, primarily designed to guide the bottles smoothly forward. A water storage tank 202 is located on one side of each limiting plate 201 to store cleaning water. A spiral channel 203 is located inside the water storage tank 202, allowing the bottle to rotate 180° when entering the spiral channel 203. Three nozzles 204 for cleaning the bottle are located inside the spiral channel 203. A water inlet pipe 205 is located at the top of the water storage tank 202, with a water pump 206 connected to one end of the pipe. The three nozzles 204 are positioned at the top and sides of the spiral channel 203, respectively. Water is supplied to the nozzles 204 via the water pump 206 and the water inlet pipe 205 as the bottle rotates, thus cleaning the bottle. The spiral channel 203 spirals 180° from one end to the other. The two parallel limiting plates 201 constrain the movement trajectory of the water bottle on the conveyor belt 1, ensuring its stable movement below the spiral channel 203. Under the continuous conveying of the conveyor belt 1, the water bottle behind squeezes the water bottle in front into the entrance of the spiral channel 203. Guided by the arc surface inside the channel, the water bottle rotates 180° around its own axis along the spiral trajectory under the extrusion force and friction. At the same time, it is sprayed and rinsed by the nozzles 204 on the top and sides. At this time, the bottle cleaning is completed and it leaves the spiral channel 203.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the collection component 3 further includes a plurality of drainage holes 301 disposed on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. A water receiving trough 302 is disposed below the drainage holes 301. The cleaning wastewater flows into the water receiving trough 302 below through the drainage holes 301 on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. A splash guard 303 is disposed on the top of the water receiving trough 302 to prevent water from splashing inside the water receiving trough 302. The wastewater after cleaning falls from the drainage holes 301 on both sides of the conveyor belt 1 into the water receiving trough 302. The splash guard 303 attenuates the kinetic energy of the water droplets by physically blocking them, preventing the wastewater from splashing to the outside of the equipment or flowing back to the clean area. At the same time, it concentrates and guides the wastewater to the bottom of the water receiving trough 302, realizing preliminary solid-liquid separation and directional discharge.

[0032] like Figure 6As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, a drain pipe 4 is further provided on one side of the water receiving tank 302, and a drain pump 5 is provided on one side of the drain pipe 4. The drain pipe 4 and the water pump 206 can work together to extract water from the water receiving tank 302 and then discharge it to the external sewer. The drain pipe 4 is located on one side of the conveyor belt 1. The sewage collected in the water receiving tank 302 is transported to the external treatment system through the inclined drain pipe 4. The drain pump 5 provides negative pressure suction power to accelerate the sewage discharge efficiency. Its position close to the side of the conveyor belt 1 can shorten the pipeline length and reduce the risk of residue and blockage.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the bottom of the water receiving tank 302 is further provided with an inclined part 6. The downward inclined end of the inclined part 6 is located on one side of the drain pipe 4, and the top of the inclined part 6 is 3cm away from the top of the water receiving tank 302. The inclined part 6 at the bottom of the water receiving tank 302 forms a slope with a height difference of 3cm. The principle of gravity flow is used to make the sewage quickly gather towards the drain pipe 4, while limiting the height of the liquid level in the water receiving tank 302 to avoid overflow or overload of the drain pump 5 due to excessive water level.

[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the anti-splash baffle 303 is further provided with a cavity 7 inside. The anti-splash baffle 303 has a plurality of honeycomb holes 8 on the side facing the conveyor belt 1. One end of the honeycomb hole 8 extends through the cavity 7. The plurality of honeycomb holes 8 are laid flat on one side of the anti-splash baffle 303. The honeycomb holes 8 of the anti-splash baffle 303 disperse the high-speed water flow into multiple fine streams. The cavity 7 structure absorbs the water flow impact energy through the expansion deceleration effect. The honeycomb hole 8 is laid flat to form a uniform pressure relief surface, further reducing the water mist diffusion range.

[0035] Such as 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the surface of the inclined part 6 is further provided with raised ribs 9. The length of the raised ribs 9 is the same as the top length of the inclined part 6. There are two raised ribs 9. The two parallel raised ribs 9 on the surface of the inclined part 6 form a guide channel to guide the sewage to flow to the drain pipe 4 along a predetermined path. The turbulence generated by the height difference of the ribs prevents impurities from being deposited and avoids large particles of dirt from clogging the drain outlet.

[0036] like Figure 6As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, a support plate 10 is further provided at the bottom of the conveyor belt 1. Four auxiliary support plates 10 and a support leg 11 of the transmission belt are provided at the bottom of the support plate 10. The support leg 11 is located on one side of the drainage pump 5. The support plate 10 and the four auxiliary support plates 10 form a rigid frame to disperse the vibration load of the conveyor belt 1 during operation. The support leg 11 is arranged close to the drainage pump 5 to shorten the span of the drainage pipe 4, reduce the impact of pump vibration on the stability of the conveyor belt 1, and facilitate maintenance and operation.

[0037] Specifically, during operation, this tilting bottle transport and cleaning equipment works as follows: Conveyor belt 1 continuously transports closely arranged water bottles, with the rear bottles pushing the front bottles into the spiral channel 203 inlet between two parallel limiting plates 201 (see...). Figure 2 The water bottle is guided by a 180° spiral arc surface with a high-friction material lining the channel (see...). Figure 4 and Figure 7 Driven by compression and friction, it rotates half a revolution around its own axis, simultaneously receiving multi-angle high-pressure flushing from three nozzles 204 at the top and sides of the spiral channel 203 (see...). Figure 7 At this time, the inside of the bottle is rinsed by the spray nozzle 204 as it rotates; the wastewater after rinsing falls into the water receiving tank 302 through the drain holes 301 on both sides of the conveyor belt 1 (see...). Figure 4 The splash guard 303 decomposes the water flow and absorbs the impact through the honeycomb holes 8 and cavity 7 structure. The sewage collects along the inclined part 6 with a height difference of 3cm at the bottom of the water receiving tank 302. Two raised ridges 9 on the surface form a guiding turbulence to prevent impurity deposition. Finally, it is quickly discharged by the drainage pump 5 through the side drainage pipe 4 (see...). Figure 2 and Figure 6 ).

[0038] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0039] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
