Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of PET bottle flake technology, and in particular to a rinsing tank for cleaning PET bottle flakes. Background Technology

[0002] PET bottle flakes (polyester bottle flakes) are a specific form of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), belonging to bottle-grade polyester chips. Its scientific name is polyethylene terephthalate, and its chemical structure is formed by the polymerization of terephthalic acid (PTA) and ethylene glycol (MEG) through esterification and polycondensation reactions, ultimately forming milky white, uniform granules. It possesses excellent mechanical properties (tensile, flexural, and impact strength) and thermal stability, maintaining its physical properties over a wide temperature range. During PET bottle flake processing, it requires rinsing to efficiently remove impurities.

[0003] Existing rinsing tanks for cleaning PET bottle flakes are not equipped with a rolling cleaning device. The method of soaking and rotating paddles to drive water flow is insufficient to thoroughly clean PET bottle flakes. As a result, some impurities may adhere to the flakes after cleaning, affecting normal use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a rinsing tank for cleaning PET bottle flakes.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A rinsing tank for cleaning PET bottle flakes includes a rinsing assembly. The rinsing assembly includes a rinsing tank, on one side of which a speed-regulating motor is installed. The output end of the speed-regulating motor is connected to a drive shaft. One end of the drive shaft is rotatably inserted through the rinsing tank. A cleaning chamber is installed on the drive shaft, positioned inside the rinsing tank. The size of the cleaning chamber is adapted to the rinsing tank. A hinge is provided on one side of the cleaning chamber, through which a top cover is installed. The size of the top cover is adapted to the cleaning chamber. Several sets of water-permeable holes are arranged sequentially on the top cover and the cleaning chamber. A set of fixing blocks is symmetrically installed on the outer walls of both sides of the cleaning chamber. A fixing shaft is installed on the top of the fixing block, through which a limit block is rotatably installed. A limit component is provided on one side of the limit block to prevent accidental rotation. A stirring component is provided on one side of the rinsing tank to enhance the cleaning effect.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model: the limiting component includes a fixing pin, and two sets of fixing pins are provided. The fixing pins are U-shaped. The limiting block and the top cover are symmetrically provided with several sets of limiting holes, and the size and position of the limiting holes are adapted to the fixing pins.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the stirring assembly includes a motor chamber, which is installed on the outer wall of one side of the rinsing tank. Several sets of rotating shafts are connected to the output end of one side of the motor chamber.

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0023] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] A rinsing tank for cleaning PET bottle flakes, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the system includes a rinsing assembly, which includes a rinsing tank 1. A speed-regulating motor 2 is installed on one side of the rinsing tank 1. A drive shaft 15 is connected to the output end of one side of the speed-regulating motor 2. One end of the drive shaft 15 is rotatably inserted through the rinsing tank 1. A cleaning chamber 18 is installed on the drive shaft 15. The cleaning chamber 18 is located inside the rinsing tank 1 and its size is adapted to the rinsing tank 1. A hinge is provided on one side of the cleaning chamber 18, and a top cover 14 is installed through the hinge. The size of the top cover 14 is adapted to the cleaning chamber 18. Several sets of water-permeable holes are arranged sequentially on the top cover 14 and the cleaning chamber 18. A set of fixing blocks 16 are symmetrically installed on the outer walls of both sides of the cleaning chamber 18. A fixing shaft 17 is installed on the top of the fixing block 16, and a limit block 12 is rotatably installed through the fixing shaft 17. A limit component is provided on one side of the limit block 12 to prevent accidental rotation. A stirring component is provided on one side of the rinsing tank 1 to increase the cleaning effect.

[0026] During use, a certain amount of damping is provided between the limiting block 12 and the fixed shaft 17 to prevent unnecessary rotation of the limiting block 12. When in use, rotating the limiting block 12 releases its restriction on the top cover 14, allowing the PET bottle flakes to be added into the cleaning chamber 18. After adding the flakes, the top cover 14 is closed, and the limiting block 12 is rotated to lock and fix the top cover 14, preventing accidental opening during cleaning. After adding the PET bottle flakes, water is poured into the rinsing tank 1. After water is poured in, the speed-regulating motor 2 controls the rotation of the transmission shaft 15, thereby synchronously controlling the cleaning process. The washing chamber 18 rotates, which controls the rolling of the PET bottle flakes inside. Water can enter normally through the permeable holes in the top cover 14 and the washing chamber 18. The water inflow, combined with the rolling of the PET bottle flakes, allows for efficient and comprehensive cleaning. The rolling process ensures a more thorough cleaning of the PET bottle flakes, preventing any residue from remaining and avoiding the accumulation of PET bottle flakes that could affect the cleaning effect. The cleaned impurities are discharged through the permeable holes along with the water flow. After cleaning, the limit block 12 is rotated to open the top cover 14 and remove the cleaned PET bottle flakes.

[0027] The limiting component includes a fixing pin 13, which is provided in two sets. The fixing pin 13 is U-shaped. The limiting block 12 and the top cover 14 are symmetrically provided with several sets of limiting holes. The size and position of the limiting holes are adapted to the fixing pin 13.

[0028] When in use, when the top cover 14 is closed and the rotation limit block 12 is used to limit and fix it, the positioning hole of the limit block 12 and the top cover 14 are aligned. After alignment, the fixing pin 13 is inserted to limit the movement and prevent the limit block 12 from rotating unnecessarily. The fixing pin 13 and the positioning hole are provided with strong damping to prevent the fixing pin 13 from being thrown out of the positioning hole when the cleaning chamber 18 rotates.

[0029] The stirring assembly includes a motor chamber 11, which is installed on one side of the outer wall of the rinsing tank 1. Several sets of rotating shafts 20 are connected to the output end of one side of the motor chamber 11. One end of the rotating shaft 20 is rotatably connected to the rinsing tank 1, and blades 19 are installed on the rotating shaft 20.

[0030] In use, a motor is installed in the motor compartment 11. The motor in the motor compartment 11 can control the rotation of the rotating shaft 20, thereby synchronously controlling the rotation of the paddle 19. The rotation of the paddle 19 in the rinsing tank 1 can agitate the water in the rinsing tank 1, thereby causing the water to flow. The flow of water combined with the rotation of the cleaning chamber 18 can increase the cleaning efficiency of PET bottle flakes and effectively reduce the cleaning time required.

[0031] To maintain stability, such as Figure 1As shown, the bottom of the rinsing tank 1 is equipped with several sets of support legs 3, and the bottom of the support legs 3 is equipped with rubber foot pads 4.

[0032] When in use, the support legs 3 and foot pads 4 work together to support the device and maintain its stability. The rubber foot pads 4 increase the anti-slip properties and prevent unnecessary sliding displacement.

[0033] For ease of sewage discharge, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the rinsing tank 1 is connected to a drain outlet 6, and a sealing plug 7 is detachably installed at one end of the drain outlet 6.

[0034] When in use, after cleaning, a container can be placed under the drain outlet 6. After placement, the sealing plug 7 can be removed to discharge wastewater and impurities through the drain outlet 6. After rinsing the rinsing tank 1 multiple times, the sewage can be discharged. The sealing plug 7 can be replaced to rinse and add water to complete the water change. The discharged wastewater is collected through the container. After collection, it can be filtered and purified for reuse.

[0035] To prevent water from splashing out during washing, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the rinsing tank 1 has an installation groove 10 at the top, through which a slider 9 is slidably installed, and a closing cover 8 is installed on one side of the slider 9.

[0036] When in use, the size of the sealing cap 8 is adapted to the rinsing tank 1. After placing the PET bottle flakes and adding water, the slider 9 can be installed in the mounting slot 10 to complete the installation of the sealing cap 8. After installation, the top of the rinsing tank 1 can be sealed by the sealing cap 8 to prevent water from splashing out of the rinsing tank 1 during cleaning due to any opening.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] To observe the operational status, refer to Figure 1 A rinsing tank for cleaning PET bottle flakes is provided in this embodiment compared to embodiment 1. An observation window 5 is provided on one side of the rinsing tank 1. The observation window 5 is made of transparent tempered glass.

[0039] During use, the observation window 5 made of transparent tempered glass allows observation of the conditions inside the rinsing tank 1. It also allows for monitoring of the operation of various components during operation, facilitating timely detection and handling of any malfunctions.
