Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aseptic tank technology, and in particular to a novel cleaning device for aseptic milk storage tanks. Background Technology

[0002] Aseptic tanks are one of the important pieces of equipment used to store sterile products. Due to long-term storage, bacteria will grow inside the aseptic tanks, and some dirt will remain in the aseptic tanks after the products are taken out. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the inside of the aseptic tanks. However, cleaning is difficult, so a special cleaning device is used to clean the tanks.

[0003] Patent document (CN219899507U) discloses a jacketed aseptic tank cleaning device. This device, through the arrangement of a first lifting cylinder, a second lifting cylinder, and a rotating connecting assembly, enables the first and second lifting cylinders to drive the fixed frame, the rotating connecting assembly, and the jacket body and tank wall cleaning assembly below them to move up and down. At the same time, the rotating connecting assembly enables the jacket body and tank wall cleaning assembly to rotate back and forth, thereby cleaning and sweeping the inner wall of the tank from all directions, resulting in higher cleaning efficiency. By setting up a jacket body, nozzles, and a water inlet pipe, water in the water inlet pipe can flow into the interior of the jacket body and then be sprayed out from the nozzles, thereby cleaning the inner wall of the tank. In addition, the tank wall cleaning assembly can remove dirt that cannot be rinsed off, making the cleaning more thorough.

[0004] When using the above technology, the following technical problems were found in the existing technology: the existing cleaning device is not convenient to move as needed during use, and it is not stable enough during cleaning. Therefore, a new type of milk aseptic storage tank cleaning device is designed to provide another technical solution to the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] 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.

[0030] 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.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-6 A novel milk aseptic storage tank cleaning device includes an aseptic tank 1 and a lid 2. The lid 2 is located at the top of the aseptic tank 1 and is used to close or open the top of the aseptic tank 1. The lid 2 is adjusted at the top of the aseptic tank 1 by external instruments. A cleaning mechanism for cleaning is provided on the outside of the aseptic tank 1. The cleaning mechanism includes a support frame 3, an adjusting threaded rod 5, a guide rod 10, a connecting frame 11, and a fixed shell 12. The adjusting threaded rod 5 is provided inside the top of the support frame 3, so that the adjusting threaded rod 5 can be adjusted up and down by sliding inside the support frame 3. The connecting frame 11 is fixed at the bottom of the adjusting threaded rod 5, so that the raising and lowering of the adjusting threaded rod 5 drives the connecting frame 11 to rise and fall inside the aseptic tank 1. The guide rod 10 is fixed at one end of the top of the connecting frame 11 and is slidably connected to the support frame 3. Thus, the adjusting threaded rod 5 can drive the connecting frame 11 to rise and fall stably by limiting the position of the guide rod 10. The fixed shell 12 is slidably connected to the outside of the bottom of the connecting frame 11, so that the raising and lowering of the connecting frame 11 drives the fixed shell 12 to rise and fall synchronously.

[0032] Preferably, a water inlet pipe 9 is fixed to the other end of the top of the connecting frame 11, so that the external cleaning liquid can enter the interior of the connecting frame 11 through the water inlet pipe 9 and enter the interior of the fixed shell 12 through the connecting frame 11.

[0033] Nozzles 15 are evenly distributed and fixed on the outer side of the fixed shell 12, so that the cleaning liquid entering the fixed shell 12 through the water inlet pipe 9 is sprayed onto the inner wall of the sterile tank 1 through the nozzles 15. Brushes 16 are fixed on the outer side and bottom of the fixed shell 12, so that the brushes 16 on the outer side of the fixed shell 12 can rub and clean the inner wall of the sterile tank 1 by raising and lowering the fixed shell 12. When the fixed shell 12 rotates, the brushes 16 on the outer side and bottom can clean the inner wall of the sterile tank 1 more thoroughly. At the same time, the brushes 16 are made of flexible material.

[0034] Preferably, a rotary drive motor 13 is fixed to the inner side of the connecting frame 11. A rotating gear 14 is connected to the output end of the rotary drive motor 13 and located at the top of the fixed housing 12. The rotating gear 14 is slidably connected to the fixed housing 12, so that the operation of the rotary drive motor 13 drives the fixed housing 12 to rotate through the rotating gear 14, allowing the fixed housing 12 to rotate at the bottom of the connecting frame 11, while the rotating gear 14 can only slide up and down at the top of the fixed housing 12. A driven gear 8 is rotatably connected to the top of the support frame 3, so that the driven gear 8 and the support frame 3 move synchronously. The inner side of the driven gear 8 is threadedly connected to the adjusting threaded rod 5, so that the rotation of the driven gear 8 drives the adjusting threaded rod 5 to adjust its height. An adjusting drive motor 6 is fixed to the top of the support frame 3. A driving gear 7 is connected to the output end of the adjusting drive motor 6. The driving gear 7 is meshed with the driven gear 8, so that the rotation of the driving gear 7 drives the driven gear 8 to rotate.

[0035] The bottom of both sides of the support frame 3 is equipped with displacement wheels 18, which allows the support frame 3 to move its position via the displacement wheels 18. The bottom of the support frame 3 is also equipped with a support mechanism for adjusting the height of the displacement wheels 18. The support mechanism includes a support shell 4, a lifting frame 17, a pressing drive motor 19, and a cam 20. The top of the support shell 4 is fixed to the support frame 3, so that the support frame 3 and the support shell 4 move synchronously. The bottom of the support frame 3 is equipped with displacement wheels 18 on both sides, which allows the support frame 3 to move horizontally via the displacement wheels 18 at the bottom of the support shell 4. A total of at least six displacement wheels 18 are used to make the support frame 3 stable when moving.

[0036] A lifting frame 17 is slidably connected to the inner side of the support shell 4, allowing the lifting frame 17 to adjust its height by sliding inside the support shell 4. When the lifting frame 17 contacts the ground, the displacement wheel 18 rises and disengages from the ground. A cam 20 is rotatably connected to the top inside the support shell 4, causing the cam 20 to rotate and press the lifting frame 17, causing the lifting frame 17 to descend inside the support shell 4. A pressing drive motor 19 is fixed inside the support shell 4, and the output end of the pressing drive motor 19 is connected to the cam 20. A tension spring 21 is fixed to the top of the lifting frame 17 and located inside the support shell 4. The top of the tension spring 21 is fixed to the support shell 4, so that the descent of the lifting frame 17 inside the support shell 4 causes the tension spring 21 to stretch.

[0037] In this embodiment, each structure has its own service life. In actual manufacturing and application, the corresponding structure made of different materials can be replaced according to the needs of use.

[0038] In this embodiment, the motor is a self-locking motor, which can drive the connected structure to rotate normally when it is powered on and working. When the motor stops working, it can prevent the connected structure from rotating through its self-locking function.

[0039] The usage process of the novel milk aseptic storage tank cleaning device provided by this utility model is as follows: During use, after the tank lid 2 is detached from the aseptic tank 1 by external instruments, the support frame 3 is moved to the outside of the aseptic tank 1 via the displacement wheel 18 at the bottom of the support shell 4. Then, the drive motor 6 is adjusted to drive the active gear 7 to rotate, causing the driven gear 8 to rotate. The rotation of the driven gear 8 causes the threaded adjusting rod 5 to descend, which, with the assistance of the guide rod 10, causes the connecting frame 11 to descend. The descent of the connecting frame 11 causes the fixed shell 12 to descend synchronously. Simultaneously, the external cleaning liquid is introduced through the water inlet pipe 9. The liquid is fed into the interior of the connecting frame 11 and then into the interior of the fixed shell 12. It is then sprayed onto the inner wall of the sterile tank 1 through the nozzle 15, allowing the cleaning liquid to flow downwards on the inner wall of the sterile tank 1. The connecting frame 11 then drives the fixed shell 12 to descend, and the outer brush 16 cleans and scrubs the inner wall of the sterile tank 1. The operation of the rotary drive motor 13 drives the rotating gear 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the fixed shell 12 to rotate. At this time, the rotation of the fixed shell 12 drives the outer and bottom brushes 16 to rotate, cleaning the inner wall and bottom of the sterile tank 1. The inner wall of the sterile tank 1 is cleaned by adjusting the lifting of the fixed shell 12.

[0040] Simultaneously, when the support frame 3 moves to the outside of the sterile tank 1, in order to increase the stability, the operation of the squeeze drive motor 19 drives the cam 20 to rotate, so that the rotation of the cam 20 squeezes the lifting frame 17, causing the lifting frame 17 to descend inside the support shell 4 and drive the tension spring 21 to stretch. As the lifting frame 17 descends, it gradually contacts the ground and generates compression, making the lifting frame 17 unable to rise under gravity. When the ground prevents it from descending, the support shell 4 rises outside the lifting frame 17 and drives the displacement wheel 18 to leave the ground, allowing the support frame 3 to stably clean the inner wall of the sterile tank 1. After cleaning, the reverse rotation of the squeeze drive motor 19 drives the cam 20 to stop squeezing the lifting frame 17, allowing the lifting frame 17 to rise inside the support shell 4. When the bottom of the lifting frame 17 is flush with the bottom of the displacement wheel 18, the lifting frame 17 returns to its original position and rises again after being stretched by the tension spring 21. At this time, the position of the support frame 3 can be adjusted by the displacement wheel 18.

[0041] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
