Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic recycling technology, and in particular to a plastic bottle fragment cleaning device with rinsing function. Background Technology

[0002] Plastic scrap cleaning typically utilizes water flow and cleaning agents, along with the action of mechanical parts, to separate contaminants such as labels, glue, residual liquids, mud, grease, and food residue adhering to the surface of plastic scraps, allowing the scraps to be recycled.

[0003] Patent CN101314161B discloses a waste plastic fragment cleaning device, including a combined frame, a detergent cleaner, and a friction cleaner, with the detergent cleaner and friction cleaner mounted on the combined frame. The detergent cleaner includes a feed screw conveyor, a horizontal screw conveyor, and a discharge screw conveyor connected in a U-shape, with the three screw conveyors interconnected by a cross-shaped pipeline. The friction cleaner includes an upper shell, a lower shell, a rotating blade shaft inside the shell, and a rotating blade assembly. The above equipment utilizes the friction cleaner to perform deep cleaning treatment on the plastic fragments through self-friction, greatly improving the cleanliness of the waste plastic fragments.

[0004] However, because plastic fragments have relatively low weight, they generate buoyancy during the cleaning process. This causes the fragments to float and accumulate, reducing the cleaning area and affecting cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where fragments float and accumulate upwards, resulting in a reduction in the cleaning area and affecting cleaning efficiency. Therefore, this invention proposes a plastic bottle fragment cleaning device with a rinsing function.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A plastic bottle fragment cleaning device with rinsing function includes: a water tank body, a cleaning component is provided inside the water tank body, the cleaning component includes a cleaning cage, a fixed rod and a spiral blade, the fixed rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the cleaning cage, and the spiral blade is fixedly installed on the fixed rod;

[0008] The spiral blade and the cleaning cage are symmetrically provided with two through-bodies of multiple mounting ports. The mounting ports are strip-shaped and radially opened on the spiral blade. A pushing component is provided inside the mounting port, which is used to drive the fragments to rotate.

[0009] The pushing component includes a pushing net and two buoyancy plates. The two buoyancy plates are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the pushing net. The area of ​​the buoyancy plates is larger than the area of ​​the mounting openings and they are set at both ends of the cleaning cage. The pushing net passes through the fixed mounting openings and is slidably set inside multiple mounting openings.

[0010] Preferably, an inlet pipe is fixedly installed at one end of the water tank, and an outlet pipe is provided on the side.

[0011] Preferably, the cleaning assembly further includes a drive motor and a mounting bracket. The drive motor is located at one end of the cleaning cage and is rotatably connected to the cleaning cage. The mounting bracket is installed at the other end of the cleaning cage and is rotatably connected to the cleaning cage.

[0012] Preferably, a telescopic rod is fixedly installed below the drive motor and the mounting bracket, and the bottom of the telescopic rod is vertically fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the water tank.

[0013] Preferably, the cleaning cage is cylindrical and has a water inlet on its side, and a feed inlet on its side, with a feed door rotatably mounted on the feed inlet.

[0014] Preferably, the pushing net has openings, the buoyancy plate is cylindrical and made of foam material, and the length of the mounting opening is greater than the length of the buoyancy plate and the pushing net.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] During the cleaning process, the debris to be cleaned is introduced into the cleaning cage. Cleaning fluid is then introduced into the tank. The cleaning cage and its spiral blades rotate periodically in both directions, evenly dispersing the debris within the cage. During rotation, because the mass of the buoyancy plate is less than that of the cleaning fluid, it drives the pusher net upwards. When the pusher component reaches the top, it approaches the outer edge of the cleaning cage, deflecting the floating plastic debris and pressing it into the center of the cage for cleaning. When the pusher component moves downwards, buoyancy causes it to approach the fixed rod, creating a gap between it and the side of the cleaning cage. This allows the debris to move between the gaps in the spiral blades, ensuring proper dispersion. This invention pushes the debris during the cleaning process, accelerating dispersion and simultaneously pressing it back into the cleaning fluid, ensuring effective cleaning.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0024] The terms used in this utility model, such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle" and "one", are only for clarity of description and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered as within the scope of implementation of this utility model.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-5 A plastic bottle fragment cleaning device with rinsing function includes: a water tank 1, a cleaning component 2 is provided inside the water tank 1, the cleaning component includes a cleaning cage 21, a fixing rod 22 and a spiral blade 23, the fixing rod 22 is fixedly connected to the middle of the cleaning cage, and the spiral blade 23 is fixedly installed on the fixing rod 22;

[0026] The spiral blade 23 and the cleaning cage 21 are symmetrically provided with two through-holes 3. The mounting holes 3 are strip-shaped and radially opened on the spiral blade 23. A pushing component 4 is provided inside the mounting hole 3. The pushing component 4 is used to drive the fragments to rotate.

[0027] The pushing component 4 includes a pushing net 41 and two buoyancy plates 42. The two buoyancy plates 42 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the pushing net 41. The area of ​​the buoyancy plates 42 is larger than the area of ​​the mounting port 3 and is set at both ends of the cleaning cage 21. The pushing net 41 passes through the fixed mounting port 3 and is slidably set inside multiple mounting ports 3.

[0028] In the embodiments of the above technical solution, during the cleaning process, the fragments to be cleaned are introduced into the cleaning cage 21. Cleaning liquid is introduced into the water tank 1. By periodically rotating the cleaning cage 21 and the spiral blades 23 in both directions, the fragments to be cleaned are evenly dispersed into the cleaning cage 21. During the rotation, since the mass of the buoyancy plate 42 is less than that of the cleaning liquid, it will drive the pushing net 41 to move upward. When the pushing component 4 moves to the top, the pushing net 41 approaches the outer edge of the cleaning cage 21, driving and deflecting the plastic fragments floating above, thereby pressing the fragments into the middle of the cleaning cage 21 for cleaning. When the pushing component 4 moves downward, due to the buoyancy, the pushing component 4 approaches the fixed rod 22, forming a gap with the side of the cleaning cage 21, ensuring that the fragments move between the gaps of the spiral blades 23, ensuring the normal dispersion of the fragments.

[0029] This invention can push the fragments during the cleaning process, which accelerates the dispersion of the fragments and presses them back into the cleaning solution, thus ensuring the cleaning effect on the fragments.

[0030] The preferred technical solution in this embodiment is:

[0031] Reference Figure 1 The water tank body 1 is fixedly installed with an inlet pipe 5 at one end and an outlet pipe 6 is provided on the side.

[0032] Since different types of cleaning solutions are required for contaminants such as labels, glue, residual liquid, mud, grease, and food residue, different types of cleaning solutions are introduced into the water tank 1 through the inlet pipe 5 to clean the substances to be removed from the surface of the fragments. After one type of substance is cleaned, the wastewater can be quickly discharged through the outlet pipe 6 to clean the second type of substance.

[0033] Reference Figure 2-3 The cleaning assembly 2 also includes a drive motor 24 and a mounting bracket 25. The drive motor 24 is located at one end of the cleaning cage 21 and is rotatably connected to the cleaning cage 21. The mounting bracket 25 is installed at the other end of the cleaning cage 21 and is rotatably connected to the cleaning cage 21.

[0034] A telescopic rod 7 is fixedly installed below the drive motor 24 and the mounting bracket 25, and the bottom of the telescopic rod 7 is vertically fixed to the bottom wall of the water tank 1.

[0035] The drive motor 24 drives the cleaning cage 21 and the internal spiral blades 23 to rotate, which can quickly clean the surface of the plastic fragments through the flowing water. If the cleaning effect cannot be observed in time during the cleaning process, the cleaning effect will be reduced. The telescopic rods 7 on both sides drive the entire cleaning assembly 2 to move upward, remove the cleaning cage 21 from the cleaning liquid, and observe the cleaning effect inside the cleaning cage 21.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 The cleaning cage 21 is cylindrical and has a water inlet on its side. The cleaning cage 21 also has a feed inlet on its side, and a feed door 8 is rotatably installed on the feed inlet.

[0037] During the rotation of the cleaning cage 21, a continuous water flow impact is generated through the water inlet, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect on the plastic fragments. The feed gate 8 is used to quickly introduce the plastic fragments. During the process of exporting the plastic fragments, the feed gate 8 can be opened. During the rotation, the fragments will move out of the cleaning cage 21 due to the buoyancy and float on the surface of the cleaning liquid, allowing for rapid collection of the plastic fragments.

[0038] Reference Figure 5 The pushing net 41 has openings, the buoyancy plate 42 is cylindrical and made of foam material, and the length of the mounting port 3 is greater than the length of the buoyancy plate 42 and the pushing net 41.

[0039] To ensure the normal movement of the plastic fragments, the pushing net 41 must not block the movement channel between the spiral blades 23.

[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
