Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of beer production technology, and in particular to a docking packaging production line that is easy to quickly changeover. Background Technology

[0002] After fermentation, beer needs to be bottled, packaged, and transported using a docking packaging production line to facilitate subsequent transportation and sales. However, when the docking beer packaging production line is in operation, the filtration requirements for different types of fermented beer vary during bottling. Therefore, the filter components at the bottling equipment on the production line need to be replaced when bottling different types of beer.

[0003] Existing docking beer packaging production lines primarily rely on manual replacement of filter components at the bottling equipment when filling different types of beer to ensure bottling quality. While manual replacement can achieve this, the cumbersome twisting and unscrewing process makes the entire replacement process time-consuming and inefficient. This hinders the smooth operation of docking beer packaging production lines and the efficient bottling of fermented beer. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this application is to provide a docking packaging production line that is easy to quickly switch over.

[0005] The above-mentioned objective of this application is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A docking packaging production line that facilitates quick conversion includes a filling machine body. A double-ended drain pipe is installed at the liquid inlet of the filling machine body. A double-ended inlet pipe is arranged above the double-ended drain pipe. Both the double-ended inlet pipe and the double-ended drain pipe have two branch pipes. A filter box is installed between the branch pipe of the double-ended inlet pipe and the two branch pipes of the double-ended drain pipe. There are two filter boxes. The two filter boxes are equipped with filter screens with different filter pore sizes. A quick-change mechanism is also installed between the two filter boxes. The quick-change mechanism includes a through hole, a guide sleeve, a sealing head, a screw, a linkage rod, a sealing sleeve, and a motor.

[0007] Optionally, the motor is installed in the middle of the outer wall of one of the filter boxes, the screw is installed at the power output end of the motor, and the other end of the screw is rotatably connected to the side wall of the other filter box.

[0008] Optionally, the branch pipes of the double-ended inlet pipe and the branch pipes of the double-ended outlet pipe are respectively provided with guide sleeves, and the branch pipes of the double-ended outlet pipe and the double-ended inlet pipe are respectively connected to the interior of the corresponding guide sleeve.

[0009] Optionally, the sealing head is slidably installed in the guide sleeve, the guide sleeve having an open end and a closed end, and the sealing sleeve is adhered to the outside of the sealing head.

[0010] Optionally, the through hole is formed on one side of the sealing head, and the diameter of the through hole is the same as the diameter of the branch pipe of the double-ended inlet pipe and the diameter of the branch pipe of the double-ended outlet pipe.

[0011] Optionally, the linkage rod has an I-shaped structure, with its end inserted and fixed to the sealing head, and the screw passing through the middle of the linkage rod and threadedly connected to it.

[0012] Optionally, each filter box has an inverted L-shaped support plate welded to the side opposite to the linkage rod. The bottom end of the support plate is bolted to the housing of the filling machine body. A pushing and cleaning mechanism is installed on both sides of the filter screen on the filter box. The pushing and cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning box, a cleaning spray hood, a cleaning pump, an electric telescopic rod, and a mounting plate.

[0013] Optionally, the mounting plate is welded to the outer side wall of the filter box, the electric telescopic rod is installed between the lower part of the mounting plate and one end of the filter screen, the cleaning box is welded to the filter box on the side opposite to the mounting plate, the cleaning pump is installed on the top side of the cleaning box, the cleaning spray is installed on the inner top of the cleaning box, and the internal dimensions of the cleaning box are larger than the dimensions of the filter screen.

[0014] Optionally, a conveyor frame is also installed on the filling machine body below the built-in filling head, and a conveyor belt is installed on the conveyor mechanism built into the conveyor frame.

[0015] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0016] This invention features a double-ended inlet pipe and a double-ended outlet pipe installed at the inlet of the filling machine body. A filter box is installed between each of the two branch pipes of the double-ended inlet pipe and the two branch pipes of the double-ended outlet pipe. A quick-change mechanism, consisting of a through hole, guide sleeve, sealing head, screw, linkage rod, sealing sleeve, and motor, is installed between the two filter boxes. During the filling process of different types of beer, the motor rotates the screw, which, with the help of the linkage rod, allows the sealing head to slide within the guide sleeve. This facilitates rapid switching between the double-ended inlet pipe and the double-ended outlet pipe, ensuring that the corresponding filter plates in the two filter boxes can be quickly put into use to meet the filtration requirements of different types of beer. Because this docking-type beer packaging production line uses electric switching to switch between filter plates of different apertures in the two filter boxes, it eliminates the tedious manual replacement operation, improving the replacement efficiency of the filter components on the filling machine body. This facilitates the smooth operation of the docking-type beer packaging production line and the efficient filling of fermented beer. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] To better understand the technical solutions presented in the embodiments of this application, the working principle of replacing filter components on the filling equipment of the existing docking beer packaging production line will be introduced first.

[0024] Existing docking beer packaging production lines mainly rely on manual replacement of filter components at the filling equipment when filling different types of beer to ensure the filling quality of different types of beer.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 This application discloses a docking packaging production line that facilitates quick conversion. It includes a filling machine body 2, a double-ended drain pipe 5 installed at the liquid inlet of the filling machine body 2, a double-ended inlet pipe 7 above the double-ended drain pipe 5, and two branch pipes on both the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended drain pipe 5. A filter box 6 is installed between the branch pipe of the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the two branch pipes on the double-ended drain pipe 5. There are two filter boxes 6, and filter screens 8 with different filter pore sizes are installed in the two filter boxes 6. A quick-change mechanism 9 is also installed between the two filter boxes 6. The quick-change mechanism 9 includes a through hole 91, a guide sleeve 92, a sealing head 93, a screw 94, a linkage rod 95, a sealing sleeve 96, and a motor 97.

[0026] Specifically, when switching filter components before bottling different types of beer, the screw 94 is first driven by the motor 97. After the screw 94 rotates, the linkage rod 95 moves under the action of the threaded transmission. At the same time as the linkage rod 95 moves, the sealing head 93 moves synchronously within the guide sleeve 92. When the filling machine body 2 is filling normally, the branch pipe on one side between the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 is connected, while the branch pipe on one side between the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 is closed. When the sealing head 93 moves within the guide sleeve 92, the branch pipe that was originally connected between the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 will be closed and blocked under the action of the corresponding sealing head 93, so that the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 stops being used. The branch pipe that was originally closed between the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 will be opened, so that the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 can be put into use, thus meeting the filtration requirements of different types of beer during bottling production.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-2 The motor 97 is installed in the middle of the outer wall of one of the filter boxes 6, and the screw 94 is installed at the power output end of the motor 97, and the other end of the screw 94 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the other filter box 6.

[0028] In one implementation, the motor 97 is mainly used to provide power for the rotation of the screw 94 to ensure the normal rotation adjustment of the screw 94.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-2 Guide sleeves 92 are also inserted through the branch pipes of the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the branch pipes of the double-ended outlet pipe 5, respectively. The branch pipes of the double-ended outlet pipe 5 and the double-ended inlet pipe 7 are respectively connected to the interior of the corresponding guide sleeves 92.

[0030] In one implementation, the guide sleeve 92 is mainly used to guide the movement of the sealing head 93 to ensure the stable movement of the sealing head 93.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-2 The plugging head 93 is slidably installed in the guide sleeve 92, which has an open end and a closed end. The sealing sleeve 96 is bonded to the outside of the plugging head 93.

[0032] As one implementation method, the sealing sleeve 96 is mainly used to seal the sealing performance between the plugging head 93 and the guide sleeve 92 after the plugging head 93 moves, so as to prevent beer leakage when the plugging head 93 switches in the guide sleeve 92.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The through hole 91 is opened on one side of the plug head 93, and the diameter of the through hole 91 is the same as the diameter of the branch pipe of the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the diameter of the branch pipe of the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5.

[0034] As one implementation method, connecting the through hole 91 to the corresponding branch pipes on the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 can ensure convenient entry of beer from the external fermentation tank into the filter box 6, so that the beer can be filtered by the filter screen plate 8, and at the same time, it is convenient for the filtered beer to enter the filling machine for filling processing.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-2 The linkage rod 95 has an I-shaped structure. The end of the linkage rod 95 is inserted and fixed to the sealing head 93. The screw rod 94 passes through the middle of the linkage rod 95 and is threadedly connected to the linkage rod 95.

[0036] In one implementation, after the screw 94 rotates, it will cause the linkage to move under the action of the threaded transmission. After the linkage rod 95 moves, it will drive all the sealing heads 93 to move and adjust synchronously. During the movement of the sealing heads 93, the branch pipes that were originally connected between the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 will be blocked by the corresponding sealing head 93, so that the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 will stop being used. The branch pipes that were originally closed between the double-ended liquid inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended liquid outlet pipe 5 will be opened, so that the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 can be put into use, thereby realizing the convenient switching of filter screen plates 8 with different through-hole diameters.

[0037] Please see Figures 1-3 Each filter box 6 has an inverted L-shaped support plate 1 welded to the side opposite to the linkage rod 95. The bottom end of the support plate 1 is bolted to the housing of the filling machine body 2. The filter box 6 is equipped with a pushing cleaning mechanism 10 on both sides of the filter screen plate 8. The pushing cleaning mechanism 10 includes a cleaning box 101, a cleaning spray hood 102, a cleaning pump 103, an electric telescopic rod 104, and a mounting plate 105.

[0038] In one implementation, when the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 is idle, the filter screen plate 8 is moved into the cleaning box 101 by the action of the corresponding electric telescopic rod 104, and external cleaning water is sprayed onto the filter screen plate 8 by the action of the cleaning pump 103, which can clean the filter screen plate 8. During the cleaning process of the filter screen plate 8, the interior of the corresponding filter box 6 is in a relatively sealed state under the sealing effect of the side plate of the filter screen plate 8, thereby avoiding the introduction of external impurities.

[0039] Please see Figures 1-3 Mounting plate 105 is welded to the outer side wall of filter box 6. Electric telescopic rod 104 is installed between the lower part of mounting plate 105 and one end of filter screen plate 8. Cleaning box 101 is welded to the filter box 6 on the side opposite to mounting plate 105. Cleaning pump 103 is installed on the top side of cleaning box 101. Cleaning spray hood 102 is installed on the inner top of cleaning box 101. The internal size of cleaning box 101 is larger than the size of filter screen plate 8.

[0040] In one implementation, the internal size of the cleaning box 101 is larger than the size of the filter screen 8, which ensures that impurities on the filter screen 8 can be smoothly flushed to the bottom of the cleaning box 101 during cleaning, so as to facilitate convenient discharge later.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 The filling machine body 2 is equipped with a conveyor frame 3 located below the filling head, and the conveyor frame 3 has a conveyor belt 4 installed on its own conveying mechanism.

[0042] In one implementation, the conveyor belt 4 is mainly used to transport beer filling containers to ensure the smooth progress of beer filling, capping and packaging processes.

[0043] The specific working principle is as follows: During beer packaging production, beer bottles are first transported to the filling machine body 2 via conveyor belt 4. Under the action of the filling machine body 2, the fermented and filtered beer is filled into the bottles. The filled beer is then transported by conveyor belt 4 to the subsequent capping and packaging processes, thus realizing the beer production and processing. When switching filter components before filling different types of beer during the beer packaging process, the screw 94 is driven by motor 97. After the screw 94 rotates, it causes the linkage rod 95 to move under the action of threaded transmission. Simultaneously, the linkage rod 95 moves the sealing head 93 synchronously within the guide sleeve 92. During normal filling by the filling machine body 2, the branch pipe on one side between the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended outlet pipe 5 is connected, while the branch pipe on one side between the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended outlet pipe 5... The pipeline is closed. When the sealing head 93 moves within the guide sleeve 92, the branch pipe that was originally connected between the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended outlet pipe 5 will be blocked by the corresponding sealing head 93, so that the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 will stop being used. The branch pipe that was originally closed between the double-ended inlet pipe 7 and the double-ended outlet pipe 5 will be opened, so that the filter screen plate 8 in the corresponding filter box 6 can be put into use, meeting the filtration needs of different types of beer during bottling. Since the switching of the filter screen plates 8 with different apertures in the two filter boxes 6 is achieved by electric switching, the tedious operation of manual replacement is eliminated, which improves the replacement efficiency of the filter components on the bottling machine body 2, facilitates the smooth operation of the docking beer bottling production line and the efficient bottling of fermented beer.

[0044] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
