Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to sterilization apparatus, and more particularly to a sterilization apparatus for packaging bottles. Background Technology

[0002] In the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, sterilization of packaging bottles is a crucial step in ensuring product quality and safety. Incomplete sterilization of packaging bottles can leave residual microorganisms, bacteria, and other impurities that may contaminate the product inside, affecting not only its quality and shelf life but also potentially posing a threat to consumer health.

[0003] Currently, most commercially available bottle sterilization devices use a single ultraviolet (UV) irradiation method, and the bottles are placed in a relatively fixed position.

[0054] This utility model embodiment provides a sterilization device for packaging bottles. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 The sterilization device for the packaging bottles includes a cabinet, a turntable unit, a lifting unit, and an ultraviolet lamp assembly.

[0055] Specifically,

[0056] The cabinet includes a cabinet body 10 and a cabinet door 11. The cabinet body 10 has a first sliding groove 100 on each of its two inner side walls along its length and height. The cabinet door 11 is located at the front end of the cabinet body 10 and is used for opening or closing the cabinet.

[0057] The turntable unit includes a turntable 20 and a first drive device. The turntable 20 is driven to rotate by the first drive device.

[0058] Two turntables 20 are movably mounted inside the cabinet along its length, allowing each turntable 20 to be placed inside or removed from the cabinet. The two turntables 20 are spaced apart to form a first irradiation space 101. Each turntable 20 includes a placement plate 200 and a connecting post 202. The placement plate has a raised edge 201 perpendicular to its top surface along its circumference, and a set of limiting grooves is provided on the top surface of the placement plate. Adjacent limiting grooves are spaced apart, allowing each packaged bottle 22 to be placed on the placement plate 200 according to the position of the limiting grooves. The side of each packaged bottle 22 facing the central axis of the turntable and the top surface of the placement plate 200 form a second irradiation space 203. The connecting post 202 is connected to the bottom end of the placement plate and is coaxial with the turntable 20. The bottom end of the connecting post has an insertion groove, and the inner wall of the insertion groove has a second sliding groove along its circumference.

[0059] In the embodiments of this application, a ring of limiting grooves is provided evenly at intervals along the circumference of the top surface of the placement plate.

[0060] In the embodiments of this application, the raised edge 201 and / or the placement plate 200 are light-transmitting layers, such as the raised edge and / or the placement plate being a quartz glass layer.

[0061] The first driving device includes a driven member, a driving member, and a transmission belt 32, with the driving member connected to the driven member via the transmission belt 32.

[0062] The driven component includes a driven wheel 300, a mounting post 301, and a fixed base 302. The driven wheel 300 has a first groove on its circumferential sidewall. One end of the mounting post passes through the driven wheel 300, and the driven wheel 300 is fixed to the mounting post 301. One end of the mounting post has a slider 3010 that matches a second sliding groove, allowing the mounting post 301 to slide within the insertion groove. The other end of the mounting post extends near the bottom of the cabinet and is rotatably connected to the fixed base 302. The driving component includes a driving wheel 310 and a first motor 311. The driving wheel 310 has a second groove on its circumferential sidewall, matching the driven wheel 300, with the first and second grooves at the same height. The bottom end of the first motor 311 is mounted on the bottom wall of the cabinet, and its top end is mounted on the driving wheel 310, with the axis of the driving wheel 310 parallel to the height direction of the cabinet. The first motor 311 drives the driving wheel 310 to rotate. The conveyor belt 32 is simultaneously engaged in the first slot and the second slot, and is tensioned by the cooperation of the driven member and the driving member.

[0063] Based on this, the first motor 311 drives the drive wheel 310 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheel 300 to rotate via the transmission belt 32, thereby driving the two turntables 20 to rotate, and then the packaging bottle 22 placed on each turntable moves circumferentially around the central axis of the turntable.

[0064] The lifting unit includes a second drive device and a lifting plate assembly. The lifting plate assembly is driven to rise and fall by the second drive device.

[0065] The second drive device includes a second motor 40 and a screw 41. The second motor 40 is installed on the top wall of the cabinet exterior. One end of the screw is installed on the movable end of the second motor 40, and the other end extends into the cabinet interior along the height of the cabinet. The second motor 40 drives the screw 41 to rotate.

[0066] The lifting plate assembly includes a connecting sleeve 420, a lifting plate 421, a bracket 422, and a rotating wheel 423. The connecting sleeve 420 is fitted and threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw rod. The connecting sleeve 420 is fixed to the top surface of the lifting plate 421, and both sides of the lifting plate extend parallel to the length of the cabinet and toward the adjacent first slide groove 100. The bracket 422 is installed on the opposite sides of the lifting plate 421, and the bracket 422 is spaced apart from its adjacent first slide groove 100. The rotating wheel 423 is matched with the first slide groove 100 and installed on the bracket 422, so that the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel 423 is in contact with the bottom of the first slide groove 100. When the second motor 40 drives the screw rod 41 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, it can drive the lifting plate 421 to rise and fall. At the same time, the rolling of the rotating wheel 423 along the extension direction of the first slide groove 100 stabilizes the rise and fall of the lifting plate 421.

[0067] The ultraviolet lamp assembly includes a first ultraviolet lamp 51 and a second ultraviolet lamp 50. The first ultraviolet lamp 51 is configured to match the second irradiation space 203, such that a first ultraviolet lamp 51 is provided above each second irradiation space 203. Each first ultraviolet lamp 51 is fixed to a lifting plate 421. When the lifting plate 421 is driven to descend by the second driving device, it causes the first ultraviolet lamp 51 to descend and continuously approach the second irradiation space 203. When the first ultraviolet lamp 51 descends to above the bottle mouth, it is beneficial for sterilization of the bottle mouth and the side of the packaging bottle 22 facing the central axis of the turntable; when the first ultraviolet lamp 51 descends into the second irradiation space 203, it mainly focuses on sterilization of the side of the packaging bottle 22 facing the central axis of the turntable. The second ultraviolet lamp 50 is designed to match the first irradiation space 101, extending along the height of the cabinet between the two turntables 20. Through the coordinated illumination between the second ultraviolet lamp 50 and the first ultraviolet lamp 51, the packaging bottle 22 can receive ultraviolet irradiation from multiple angles. The second ultraviolet lamp 50 is assembled inside the cabinet by mounting its top end to the bottom end of the screw or its bottom end to the inner wall of the cabinet body 10.

[0068] Based on the above embodiments, the working principle of this application is as follows:

[0069] Open cabinet door 11, remove the turntable from inside the cabinet, and place each packaging bottle 22 into the turntable 20 in sequence. After all the packaging bottles 22 have been placed, slide the bottom of the turntable to the mounting column 301. Close cabinet door 11, start the first motor 311 to drive the drive wheel 310 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheel 300 to rotate the turntable 20 via the conveyor belt 32, thereby causing the packaging bottles 22 to move circumferentially with the turntable 20 around the axis of the mounting column. At the same time, turn on the ultraviolet lamp group, start the second motor 40 to first drive the first ultraviolet lamp 51 to descend to the upper part of the bottle mouth and stop, and then descend into the second irradiation space 203 to sterilize the packaging bottles 22 from multiple angles.

[0070] Based on the above embodiments, the advantages of this application are:

[0071] By matching the first ultraviolet lamp 51 with the second irradiation space 203, and by driving the turntable 20 to rotate in conjunction with the second ultraviolet lamp 50, the packaging bottle 22 can be irradiated with ultraviolet light from multiple angles. This not only increases the number of packaging bottles that can be processed at one time and improves the sterilization efficiency, but also improves the uniformity of sterilization.
