Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of steam sterilization technology, and in particular relates to a steam sterilization device for oral liquid bottles. Background Technology

[0002] Oral liquid refers to a liquid dosage form of medicine for oral administration. It is a type of liquid preparation. It is usually made by dissolving or uniformly dispersing the drug in a suitable solvent (such as water, syrup, ethanol, etc.), adding necessary additives (such as flavoring agents, preservatives, stabilizers, coloring agents, etc.), and then sealing it in a special oral liquid bottle. The bottle used to hold the oral liquid medicine usually needs to be sterilized during the processing.

[0003] Currently, the existing steam sterilization equipment for oral liquid bottles results in high temperatures after sterilization. Workers usually need to remove the bottles from the equipment and allow them to cool naturally in the outside environment. This not only risks scalding workers but also results in a slow cooling rate, limiting the overall production efficiency of oral liquid bottles and making it difficult to meet the needs of modern large-scale production.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a steam sterilization device for oral liquid bottles. Utility Model Content

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 7As shown, this utility model is a steam sterilization device for oral liquid bottles, including a sterilization chamber 1 and an air outlet 3, which is fixedly installed in a cooling chamber 102 opened in the sterilization chamber 1. A steam chamber 2 is fixedly installed in the sterilization chamber 101 opened in the sterilization chamber 1, and the top of the steam chamber 2 is connected to an air outlet 201. The top of the sterilization chamber 1 has two top openings 103 that are respectively connected to the sterilization chamber 101 and the cooling chamber 102, and the top openings 103 are closed with a top cover 4. A placement plate 6 is provided below the top cover 4. The placement plate 6 enters the sterilization chamber 101 and the cooling chamber 102 in turn. A rotating shaft 601 is fixed on both sides of the placement plate 6. U-shaped fixing frames 5 are fixed on both sides of the bottom end of the top cover 4. The rotating shaft 601 passes through the U-shaped fixing frames 5 and is rotatably connected to the U-shaped fixing frames 5. The placement plate 6 has a through hole 602. The rotating shaft 601 drives the placement plate 6 to rotate.

[0031] This embodiment provides a steam sterilization device for oral liquid bottles. Two batches of bottles can be placed on two placement plates 6. The bottles are inverted and inserted into the through holes 602. The two placement plates 6 can be interchanged and placed in the sterilization chamber 101 and the cooling box 102 respectively. Steam is sprayed out through the steam outlet 201 to sterilize the bottles in the sterilization chamber 101, and cold air is sprayed out through the air outlet 3 to cool the bottles in the cooling box 102. After cooling, the bottles placed on the placement plates 6 in the cooling box 102 can be removed and replaced, which improves the production and processing speed of the bottles. When replacing the bottles, the placement plates 6 are rotated 90° by the rotating shaft 601 so that the bottles are parallel to the horizontal plane, which facilitates the replacement operation and improves the replacement speed of the bottles.

[0032] The top cover 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 15. The sterilization chamber 1 is provided with a lifting plate 17 above it. The top of the lifting plate 17 is fixedly provided with a motor 16 whose output end is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 15. The sterilization chamber 1 is provided with electric push rods 18 whose output ends are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the lifting plate 17 on both sides. The electric push rods 18 are fixed to the side of the sterilization chamber 1 through the mounting plate 1801. When it is necessary to change the position of the placement plate 6, the electric push rod 18 drives the lifting plate 17 to move upward. The U-shaped fixing frame 5 then drives the placement plate 6 to move upward, so that the placement plate 6 moves to the top of the sterilization chamber 1. Then, the motor 16 drives the connecting frame 15 to rotate 180°, so that the two placement plates 6 are changed. Then, the electric push rod 18 drives the top cover 4 to move downward to close the top chamber opening 103. At the same time, the placement plate 6 drives the bottle body to move downward so that the steam outlet 201 enters the bottle body.

[0033] One of the rotating shafts 601 is fixedly connected to bevel gear 7, and bevel gear 7 is meshed with bevel gear 8. The top surface of the top cover 4 is equipped with a motor 9 whose output end is fixedly connected to bevel gear 8. The motor 9 drives bevel gear 7 to rotate through bevel gear 8, and further drives the placement plate 6 to rotate through the rotating shaft 601.

[0034] The top surface of the placement plate 6 is fixedly connected to the empty shell 10 via a fixing block 1001. A slider 11 is slidably provided inside the empty shell 10. The slider 11 is fixedly connected to a connecting block 12 that penetrates the side wall of the empty shell 10. A clamping block 13 is fixedly provided at one end of the connecting block 12 away from the connecting block 11. A spring is provided inside the empty shell 10, and the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the empty shell 10 and the slider 11, respectively. When the spring pushes the slider 11 to return to its original position, the clamping block 13 is used to press against the bottle body to fix the bottle body. The spring provides elastic force to the slider 11, and the clamping block 13 is pressed against the bottle body through the connecting block 12.

[0035] The sterilization chamber 1 has a side opening that communicates with the cooling chamber 102, and the side opening is hinged with a side door 14. After rotating the bottle 90° to make the bottle parallel to the horizontal plane, the side door 14 can be opened to facilitate the removal and replacement of the bottle.

[0036] The side of the clamping block 13 that contacts the bottle is an arc-shaped surface, which increases the contact area between the clamping block 13 and the bottle and ensures clamping stability.

[0037] The bottom ends of the steam box 2 and the air outlet 3 are connected to the steam inlet pipe 202 and the connecting pipe 301, respectively. The steam inlet pipe 202 and the connecting pipe 301 pass through the bottom end of the sterilization box 1. The steam inlet pipe 202 facilitates the introduction of steam into the steam box 2, and the steam is sprayed out from the steam outlet 201. The connecting pipe 301 facilitates the introduction of cold air into the air outlet 3, and the cold air is blown out from the air outlet 3 to cool the bottles in the cooling box 102.

[0038] Understandably, this invention can accelerate the cooling rate of the bottle and, secondly, accelerate the replacement rate of the bottle.

[0039] A specific application of the operation process in this embodiment is as follows: First, drive motor 9 above the cooling box 102 to rotate the placement plate 6 inside the cooling box 102 by 90°. Then, open the side door 14 and insert the bottle into the through hole 602. During insertion, the bottle is pressed against the clamping block 13, which clamps and fixes the bottle. Then, drive motor 9 to reset the placement plate 6, drive the electric push rod 18 to move the placement plate 6 upward and separate it from the sterilization box 1. Then, drive motor 16 to swap the positions of the two placement plates 6, drive the electric push rod 18 to close the top cover 4 with the top box opening 103, and insert the steam outlet 201 into the bottle. Steam is introduced through the steam inlet pipe 202 to sterilize the bottle. If the sterilized bottle is placed on the placement plate 6 in the cooling box 102, cold air is blown out through the air outlet 3 through the connecting pipe 301 to cool the bottle. After cooling, the motor 9 above the cooling box 102 is driven to rotate the placement plate 6 in the cooling box 102 by 90°, and then the side door 14 is opened to replace the bottle. If there is no bottle on the placement plate 6 in the cooling box 102, the motor 9 above the cooling box 102 is driven to rotate the placement plate 6 in the cooling box 102 by 90°, and then the bottle is placed on it.
