Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of glass bottle drying equipment, specifically relating to a glass bottle drying device. Background Technology
[0002] Drying glass bottles is a crucial step in the production of alcoholic beverages (such as wine, spirits, beer, and distilled spirits) before bottling. Residual moisture in the bottle can affect the purity of the liquid, cause labels to detach, promote microbial growth, and even compromise the seal of the bottle cap.
[0003] During the drying process of glass wine bottles, they are usually placed upside down. This allows any remaining liquid inside to drain out; however, it also has a significant drawback. During drying, evaporating moisture tends to remain at the bottom of the inverted bottle. This can result in a small amount of liquid remaining at the bottom after drying.
[0004] In order to solve the above problems, this utility model aims to provide a wine bottle drying device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a wine bottle drying device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A glass bottle drying device includes a main cabinet with an air inlet pipe at the bottom and an air outlet pipe at the top. The main cabinet has several partitions dividing its interior into several drying chambers, each with an openable door. Several hollow glass bottle support rods with open ends are located at the partitions and are vertically arranged. The glass bottle support rods connect two adjacent drying chambers.
[0008] Preferably, the connection between the glass bottle support rod and the separator plate is provided with a tapered protrusion.
[0009] Preferably, the side of the conical protrusion is provided with a plurality of protruding strips.
[0010] Preferably, the side wall of the glass bottle support rod is provided with several air guide holes.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] (1) The glass bottle drying device provided by this utility model is designed with a glass bottle support rod. When the glass bottle is inverted and inserted into the glass bottle support rod, the liquid inside the glass bottle can flow out. At the same time, the glass bottle support rod is designed to be hollow inside and open at both ends. The airflow passes through the glass bottle support rod and is introduced from the lower drying chamber into the upper drying chamber. During the gas flow, it passes through the inside of the glass bottle and can smoothly carry away the water vapor inside the glass bottle, thereby reducing the possibility of water residue inside the glass bottle.
[0013] (2) The glass bottle drying device provided by this utility model has a conical protrusion at the connection of the fish partition plate of the glass bottle support rod, and a raised strip on the side of the conical protrusion; the design of the conical protrusion and the raised strip can prevent the bottle mouth of the inverted glass bottle from being blocked and can ensure that the airflow passes smoothly.
[0014] (3) The glass bottle drying device provided by this utility model has an air inlet pipe at the bottom of the main cabinet and an air outlet pipe at the top of the main cabinet; the airflow passes through each drying chamber in sequence, which can make the maximum use of the airflow.

[0017] 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.
[0018] A glass bottle drying device includes a main cabinet 1. An air inlet pipe 2 is located at the bottom of the main cabinet 1, and an air outlet pipe 3 is located at the top of the main cabinet 1. Negative pressure is applied at the air outlet pipe 3, while air is introduced through the air inlet pipe 2, thus achieving gas flow inside the main cabinet 1. Several partition plates 4 are provided inside the main cabinet 1, dividing the interior into three drying chambers 5. Each drying chamber 5 has an independent opening door 6, allowing for the opening and closing of a single drying chamber 5. Several hollow glass bottle support rods 7 with two openings are provided at the partition plates 4, and the glass bottle support rods 7 are vertically arranged. The glass bottle support rods 7 are used to hold glass bottles; inserting an inverted glass bottle into the glass bottle support rod 7 allows for proper placement of the bottle. Inverting the glass bottle allows residual water inside the bottle to drain out. The glass bottle support rods 7 connect two adjacent drying chambers 5, allowing gas to flow between the drying chambers 5. To prevent the inverted glass bottle opening from being blocked and to facilitate the flow of residual water and gas, a conical protrusion 8 is provided at the connection between the glass bottle support rod 7 and the partition plate 4, and multiple raised strips 9 are provided on the side of the conical protrusion 8. To increase the airflow channel, multiple air guide holes 10 are provided on the side wall of the glass bottle support rod 7.
[0019] During use, negative pressure is applied to the exhaust pipe 3, and air is guided into the main cabinet 1 through the intake pipe 2, where the gas flows. Air from the lower drying chamber 5 enters the upper drying chamber 5 via the glass bottle support rod 7. The air passing through the glass bottle support rod 7 inevitably passes through the inside of the glass bottle, and the airflow inside the glass bottle carries away any moisture that cannot be expelled from inside the bottle.
[0020] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
