Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bottled mineral water barrel cleaning technology, and in particular to a cleaning device for bottled mineral water production barrels. Background Technology

[0002] The water barrel cleaning device in the production of bottled mineral water is a key piece of equipment to ensure drinking water safety. It is mainly used to efficiently clean and disinfect recycled PC or PET water barrels, removing residues, microorganisms and other contaminants.

[0003] Existing barrel cleaning devices used in bottled mineral water production commonly employ rotary spray, immersion, and conveyor belt assembly line types. Among them, the rotary spray type fixes the barrel in place, and the internal nozzles rotate to spray cleaning agent and clean water. However, inaccurate positioning leads to misalignment between the nozzles and the barrel, resulting in uneven cleaning and the creation of cleaning dead zones. The immersion type soaks the barrels in disinfectant and relies on manual scrubbing, which is inefficient and poses a high hygiene risk. The conveyor belt assembly line type moves the barrels to different workstations via a conveyor belt, but the equipment occupies a large area, has high maintenance costs, and poor clamp compatibility, requiring adjustment of the barrel clamping mechanism when changing barrel sizes. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a barrel cleaning device for bottled mineral water production, which improves the clamping accuracy of barrel cleaning, is compatible with barrels of different specifications, has strong adaptability, keeps the barrel and the pressure nozzle coaxial, improves the uniformity of high-pressure spraying from the nozzle, eliminates cleaning dead corners, and improves cleaning efficiency.

The clamping groove is disposed on the mounting plate, the clamping member is disposed within the clamping groove, the connecting baffle is disposed on the mounting plate, and the limiting member is disposed on the connecting baffle. The second driving device is disposed on the mounting plate and communicates with both the clamping member and the limiting member.

[0007] This utility model relates to a barrel cleaning device for bottled mineral water production. The barrel is clamped and fixed by a limiting mechanism, so that the outer wall of the barrel is in contact with the connecting baffle. The rinsing mechanism is kept coaxial with the barrel. The expansion and contraction of the limiting mechanism is adjusted to achieve the adaptability of the barrel clamping. The barrel is moved by the first driving device, so that the rinsing mechanism can be inserted into the barrel to rinse evenly, eliminating cleaning dead corners and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0008] In addition, the bottled mineral water production water barrel cleaning device proposed above according to this utility model may also have the following additional technical features:

[0009] Specifically, the rinsing mechanism includes a third driving device, a connecting box, four spray pipes, and four sets of nozzles. The connecting box is disposed on the filter screen, the four spray pipes are disposed on the connecting box, the four sets of nozzles are disposed on the spray pipes, and the third driving device is disposed on the connecting box and connected to the spray pipes through the connecting box.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0022] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes a barrel cleaning device for bottled mineral water production according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, the bottled mineral water production water barrel cleaning device of this utility model embodiment may include a storage tank 1, two sets of symmetrically arranged first drive devices 2, a mounting plate 3, a filter screen 4, multiple limiting mechanisms 5, and multiple rinsing mechanisms 6.

[0024] The mounting plate 3 is movably connected to the storage tank 1 via two sets of symmetrically arranged first driving devices 2. The filter screen 4 is set on the storage tank 1. Multiple rinsing mechanisms 6 are set on the filter screen 4 and correspond to the positions of multiple limiting mechanisms 5 respectively. The first driving device 2 is a cylinder.

[0025] It should be noted that the mounting plate 3 and multiple limiting mechanisms 5 can be stably supported by the first driving device 2 and driven to move and adjust along the height direction of the receiving tank 1. The filter screen 4 can stably support multiple rinsing mechanisms 6 in the receiving tank 1, and at the same time filter the wastewater after rinsing.

[0026] The limiting mechanism 5 includes a second driving device 51, a clamping groove 52, a connecting baffle 53, a clamping member 54, and a limiting member 55.

[0027] The clamping groove 52 is disposed on the mounting plate 3, the clamping member 54 is disposed in the clamping groove 52, the connecting baffle 53 is disposed on the mounting plate 3, the limiting member 55 is disposed on the connecting baffle 53, and the second driving device 51 is disposed on the mounting plate 3 and is connected to the clamping member 54 and the limiting member 55 respectively.

[0028] It should be noted that the clamping member 54 and the limiting member 55 proposed in the above embodiments are elastic rubber airbags, and the second driving device 51 is an air pump. The second driving device 51 simultaneously inflates and deflates the clamping member 54 and the elastic member, so that the clamping member 54 and the elastic member contract and expand synchronously, thereby achieving the clamping and fixing of water buckets of different sizes. Then, the outer wall of the water bucket is attached to the connecting baffle 53 to achieve coaxiality between the water bucket and the rinsing mechanism 6.

[0029] Specifically, during the actual rinsing process, the relevant personnel place the bucket with its opening facing down in the clamping groove 52, and make the reinforcing ribs protruding from the outer wall of the bucket clamp the clamping member 54 and the elastic member respectively. In the initial state, the clamping member 54 and the elastic member are in an uninflated state. After the bucket is placed in the clamping groove 52, it is made to fit against the side wall of the connecting baffle 53. Gas is injected into the clamping member 54 and the elastic member respectively through the second driving device 51. The expansion of the clamping member 54 and the elastic member is used to clamp and fix the bucket. At this time, the opening of the bucket is opposite to the position of the rinsing mechanism 6 and keeps coaxial. The telescopic end of the first driving device 2 is driven to retract, the mounting plate 3 and the bucket move downward, and the rinsing mechanism 6 extends into the bucket to evenly rinse the inner side wall and the inner upper wall of the bucket, eliminating cleaning dead corners and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0030] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the rinsing mechanism 6 includes a third drive unit 61, a connecting box 62, four spray pipes 63, and four sets of nozzles 64.

[0031] The connecting box 62 is mounted on the filter screen 4, four spray pipes 63 are mounted on the connecting box 62, four sets of nozzles 64 are mounted on the spray pipes 63, and the third drive device 61 is mounted on the connecting box 62 and connected to the spray pipes 63 through the connecting box 62.

[0032] It should be noted that the filter screen 4 supports the rinsing mechanism 6, and the third drive component uses a water pump to draw water from the collection tank 1 and pump it sequentially to the connecting box 62 and the four spray pipes 63. When the internal pressure of each spray pipe 63 increases, it is sprayed out in all directions through the four sets of nozzles 64 to achieve high-pressure spray rinsing inside the water tank.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the clamping groove 52 is U-shaped and matches the shape of the clamping member 54. The limiting member 55 is semi-circular and matches the shape of the connecting baffle 53. The limiting member 55, the clamping member 54 and the connecting baffle 53 are coaxially arranged.

[0034] It should be noted that the parallel edge of the bucket fits into the clamping groove 52 and enters the clamping groove 52, and makes frictional contact with the clamping member 54. When the bucket slides into place, the outer wall of the bucket fits into the connecting baffle 53 and the limiting member 55. At the same time, the reinforcing ribs of the outer wall of the bucket are sequentially engaged above the clamping member 54 and the limiting member 55 to keep the height of the bucket fixed.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 5, the ends of the limiting member 55 and the clamping member 54 are open, and rubber flaps 56 are respectively provided at the end openings of the limiting member 55 and the clamping member 54.

[0036] It should be noted that the limiting component 55 and the clamping component 54 adjust the internal pressure through the rubber valve 56 to achieve adaptive adjustment of the clamping force, thereby avoiding the deformation of the water bucket due to excessive internal pressure of the limiting component 55 and the clamping component 54, while also satisfying the clamping and positioning of the water bucket.

[0037] In one embodiment of this utility model, as shown in Figure 5, the four spray pipes 63 are arranged symmetrically in a cross shape, and the four sets of nozzles 64 are arranged at uniform intervals along the axial direction of the four spray pipes 63.

[0038] It should be noted that after the spray pipe 63 extends into the water tank, the four spray pipes 63 spray high-pressure water mist in four directions, and the nozzle 64 is also installed above the spray pipe 63. The included angle between each group of nozzles 64 is 90 degrees, and the included angle between each group of nozzles 64 at the same horizontal height is also 90 degrees, which expands the spraying area and improves cleaning efficiency.

[0039] In summary, the bottled mineral water production water barrel cleaning device of this utility model improves the clamping accuracy of water barrel cleaning, is compatible with water barrels of different specifications, has strong adaptability, keeps the water barrel and pressure nozzle coaxial, improves the uniformity of high-pressure spraying from the nozzle, eliminates cleaning dead corners, and improves cleaning efficiency.
