Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of PET plastic bottle production technology, and more specifically, to an empty bottle circulating cooling and temperature reduction device. Background Technology

[0002] Most disposable plastic bottles used for everyday beverages or drinking water are made of PET plastic. PET plastic bottles are made of PET, which is polyethylene terephthalate. PET plastic bottles are transparent, non-toxic, impact-resistant, but not heat-resistant. They are generally used to hold mineral water, cola, peanut oil, cosmetics, etc. Empty PET plastic bottles need to be cooled during the blow molding process.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication (CN 220841403 U) that discloses an accelerated cooling device. While this device achieves rapid and uniform cooling of PET bottles during transport by arranging multiple sets of symmetrical, curved cooling water spray heads on both sides of a PET bottle channel frame (first type) to form a water-cooled cooling channel, and two sets of inclined cooling fans with their tops close together on both sides of a PET bottle channel frame (second type) to form a blowing cooling channel, the problem is that the cooling water spray volume is fixed because all spray heads open and close synchronously. This makes it impossible to adjust the spray volume according to different bottle sizes and specifications. Furthermore, excessive spray volume leads to additional energy waste for the cooler. Therefore, this invention designs an empty bottle circulating cooling device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an empty bottle circulating cooling device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A circulating cooling device for empty bottles includes a channel support, a water tank, a water receiving base, and a cooler. The channel support has a drain outlet at its bottom. The water receiving base is fixedly connected between the drain outlet and the water tank. The cooler is fixedly installed on the upper part of the water tank. A water guide pipe is fixedly connected between the cooler's inlet port and the bottom side of the water tank. A water pump is fixedly installed on the upper part of the cooler. A water pipe is fixedly connected between the cooler's outlet port and the water pump's inlet port. A T-shaped water pipe is fixedly connected to the water pump's outlet port. L-shaped water pipes are fixedly connected to both ends of the T-shaped water pipes. Several branch water pipes are fixedly connected at intervals along the L-shaped water pipes. The branch water pipes pass through the side of the channel support. A solenoid valve is installed on the branch water pipe outside the channel support. A cooling water spray head is fixedly connected to one end of each branch water pipe.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a first fan is fixedly installed on one side of the channel bracket, and a second fan is fixedly installed on the other side of the channel bracket, with the first fan and the second fan being arranged alternately.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, water-blocking strips are fixedly installed at both ends of the inner side of the channel support, and the water-blocking strips have inclined surfaces on their sides.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a control panel is fixedly installed on the side wall of the channel bracket, and the output end of the control panel is electrically connected to the input end of the solenoid valve.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the water storage tank has a liquid level port on its side, and a transparent plate is installed inside the liquid level port.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the water storage tank is fixedly connected to a water filling port, and a sealing cap is threaded onto the upper end of the water filling port.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses a water pump to draw water from a storage tank. The water then enters a cooler through a water pipe and is treated at a low temperature to become cooling water. The cooling water then passes through a T-shaped water pipe, an L-shaped water pipe, and several branch water pipes before being sprayed onto empty bottles through cooling water spray nozzles, thus cooling the bottles. Depending on the bottle type and specifications, if the spray water volume needs to be adjusted, the solenoid valves on the branch water pipes can be selectively opened and closed to independently control the opening and closing of each cooling water spray nozzle. This allows for easy adjustment of the spray water volume to a suitable range, making it suitable for empty bottles of different sizes. It effectively prevents excessive spray water volume and avoids extra energy waste caused by excess cooling water, thus saving energy costs.

[0014] 2. This utility model utilizes a first fan and a second fan that intersect to perform air cooling on both sides of the empty bottle, and it also helps to extend the length of the formed air cooling channel, further ensuring the air cooling effect. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides an empty bottle circulating cooling and temperature reduction device, including a channel support 1, a water storage tank 2, a water receiving seat 3, and a cooler 4. The bottom of the channel support 1 is provided with a drain outlet 101. The water receiving seat 3 is fixedly connected between the drain outlet 101 and the water storage tank 2. The cooler 4 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the water storage tank 2. A water guide pipe 201 is fixedly connected between the water inlet port of the cooler 4 and the bottom side of the water storage tank 2. A water pump 5 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cooler 4. A water pipe 501 is fixedly connected between the water outlet port of the cooler 4 and the water inlet port of the water pump 5. A T-shaped water pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the water outlet port of the water pump 5. Both ends of the T-shaped water pipe 6 are fixedly connected to L-shaped water pipes 7. Several branch water pipes 8 are fixedly connected at intervals on the L-shaped water pipes 7. The branch water pipes 8 pass through the side of the channel support 1. A solenoid valve 801 is provided on the branch water pipe 8 located on the outside of the channel support 1. A cooling water spray head 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the branch water pipe 8.

[0022] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, a first fan 102 is fixedly installed on one side of the channel bracket 1, and a second fan 103 is fixedly installed on the other side of the channel bracket 1. The first fan 102 and the second fan 103 are arranged alternately to provide air cooling treatment for both sides of the empty bottle that passes through, and it is also beneficial to extend the length of the formed air cooling channel to further ensure the air cooling effect.

[0023] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, water-blocking strips 104 are fixedly installed at both ends of the inside of the channel support 1. The side of the water-blocking strip 104 is provided with an inclined surface 105, which achieves the purpose of preventing water falling inside the channel support 1 from flowing out.

[0024] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, a control panel 106 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the channel bracket 1. The output end of the control panel 106 is electrically connected to the input end of the solenoid valve 801, so as to facilitate the control of the operating status of each solenoid valve 801.

[0025] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, a liquid level port 202 is provided on the side of the water storage tank 2, and a transparent plate 203 is provided inside the liquid level port 202 to facilitate viewing the amount of water stored inside the water storage tank 2.

[0026] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, a water inlet port 204 is fixedly connected to the top of the water storage tank 2. A sealing cap 205 is threaded onto the upper end of the water inlet port 204. By opening the sealing cap 205, cooling water can be added into the water storage tank 2 through the water inlet port 204.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model:

[0028] After the empty bottles are processed, a mechanical gripper on the conveyor line grasps the bottle neck and transports them slowly through the channel support 1. A water pump 5 draws water from the storage tank 2, which then flows through the water pipe 201 into the cooler 4 for low-temperature treatment. The coolant then flows through T-shaped water pipes 6, L-shaped water pipes 7, and several branch water pipes 8, finally being sprayed onto the empty bottles through cooling water spray heads 9, thus cooling the bottles. Depending on the bottle type and specifications, if the spray volume needs to be adjusted, the solenoid valves 801 on the branch water pipes 8 can be selectively opened and closed, allowing independent control of each cooling water spray head. The opening and closing of the water spray head 9 facilitates the adjustment of the spray volume to a suitable range, effectively preventing excessive spray volume. The water produced after cooling treatment falls into the channel support 1, and the water baffle 104 prevents the water inside the channel support 1 from flowing out. The water flows back to the water storage tank 2 through the drain outlet 101 and the water receiving seat 3 for recycling. The intersecting first fan 102 and second fan 103 can perform air cooling treatment on both sides of the empty bottle, and it is also beneficial to extend the length of the formed air cooling channel to further ensure the air cooling effect.
