Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of beer production, and more specifically, to a beer filling machine. Background Art
[0002] Beer is one of the oldest alcoholic beverages of mankind and is the third most consumed beverage in the world after water and tea. Beer was introduced into China in the early 20th century and is an imported liquor. Beer is translated into Chinese as "啤" according to the English word "Beer" and has been called "beer" ever since. Beer is mainly made from malt, hops, and water, and is brewed by yeast fermentation into a low-alcohol beverage containing carbon dioxide, known as "liquid bread", which is a low-concentration alcoholic beverage. Beer has the least ethanol content, so drinking beer not only is not easy to get drunk and harm the body, but on the contrary, drinking a small amount is beneficial to physical health. Most of the beer in the world now adds auxiliary raw materials.
[0003] In traditional filling devices, the filling nozzle is directly aligned with the bottle mouth for filling. Such a filling method is simple and efficient, but there are also some problems. Because when filling, the liquid flows out of the nozzle and impacts directly with the bottom of the bottle under the action of pressure and gravity. Due to the particularity of beer itself, there are extremely rich hop foams inside it, and hop foams are the "soul" of beer. Therefore, most of the hop foams will be released during the impact process between the liquid and the bottom of the bottle, affecting the taste.
[0004] In view of the problems in the related art, no effective solution has been proposed yet. Content of the Utility Model
