Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage processing technology, and in particular to a beverage volume-fixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Volume adjustment involves adding water to the volumetric flask when the liquid level is 1-2 cm from the mark. Using a dropper, add water until the line is level with the lowest point of the liquid. Volume adjustment actually follows the transfer process using a small beaker and guided by a glass rod. When the transferred solution is 2-3 cm from the concave meniscus of the volumetric flask, use a dropper to add water until the mark is tangent to the lowest point of the liquid. Volume adjustment is generally performed in a volumetric flask. Reagents are typically prepared in a beaker. For example, to prepare 1L of reagent, prepare approximately 900-950 ml in the beaker, then transfer it to the volumetric flask using a glass rod. Add solvent (mainly water) until the liquid level is 2-3 cm from the concave meniscus, then use a dropper to add water until the mark is tangent to the lowest point of the liquid. Stopper the flask and shake well.

[0003] In the beverage production industry, volume control devices are crucial equipment for ensuring accurate and consistent product volume. However, existing beverage volume control devices have some significant problems in practical applications, especially the cumbersome and time-consuming process of replacing the volume control head. Traditional volume control head designs often use a fixed connection method, which means that when a different specification or type of volume control device needs to be replaced, the production line must be stopped for replacement. This not only reduces production efficiency but also increases equipment maintenance costs and downtime. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a beverage volume-fixing device that avoids the problem of having to stop the production line and replace the volume-fixing device when it is necessary to change to a different specification or type of volume-fixing device.

[0005] This utility model provides a beverage volume-fixing device, including a volume-fixing cavity, a volume-fixing head provided on the lower side of the volume-fixing cavity, a slide rail fixedly connected inside the volume-fixing cavity, a slider provided on the upper side of the volume-fixing head, a locking block rotatably connected to the side wall of the slider, a locking groove provided on the inner wall of the slide rail, the inner wall of the locking groove locking into the outer wall of the locking block, and the size of the locking groove being adapted to the size of the locking block.

[0006] Preferably, a vertical rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the volume-fixing head, and a slider is fixedly connected to the end of the vertical rod away from the volume-fixing head. The side wall of the slider is rotatably connected to the end of the block near the slider.

[0007] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the side of the slider near the volume-fixing head, and a first spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixing plate. The side of the first spring away from the fixing plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the block.

[0008] Preferably, the card block is a slanted block design, and the card slot is a slanted slot design.

[0009] Preferably, an annular cleaning scraper is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed volume cavity, a fixed rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the annular cleaning scraper, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the fixed rod, and a sliding box is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod away from the fixed rod.

[0010] Preferably, a retaining plate is rotatably connected to the side of the sliding box near the slider, and a third spring is fixedly connected to the side of the retaining plate away from the slider. The side of the third spring away from the retaining plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding box.

[0011] Preferably, a second spring is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding box away from the slider, and the end of the second spring away from the sliding box is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide rail. A top rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slide rail near the volume-fixing head.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0013] 1. This beverage volume-fixing device pushes the volume-fixing head into the volume-fixing cavity, causing the volume-fixing head to move the vertical rod upward. The upward movement of the vertical rod causes the slider to slide upward along the inner wall of the slide rail. The upward movement of the slider causes the locking block to disengage from the locking groove, allowing the operator to directly remove the currently installed volume-fixing head from the volume-fixing cavity. Then, according to the specific needs of the beverage to be filled, a suitable and matching volume-fixing head can be selected and assembled with the volume-fixing cavity. This satisfies the volume requirements of different beverage filling processes and improves work efficiency.

[0014] 2. This beverage volume-fixing device works by having a slider contact a locking plate, causing the locking plate to rotate and opening the front of the sliding box. The slider then carries a locking block into the sliding box. The locking block, pushed by a first spring, rotates and unfolds, engaging with the locking plate. The operator then pulls the volume-fixing head out of the volume-fixing cavity, causing the volume-fixing head to move the vertical rod. The vertical rod moves the slider down the inner wall of the slide rail, simultaneously causing the sliding box to slide down the inner wall of the slide rail. This, in turn, causes the annular cleaning scraper to scrape the inner wall of the volume-fixing cavity, cleaning its interior. When the sliding box reaches the lower end of the slide rail, the push rod contacts the locking plate, causing it to rotate and disengage from the slider. This allows the sliding box to disengage from the slider, enabling normal resetting. This facilitates easier cleaning of the volume-fixing cavity when the volume-fixing head is removed, saving the need for scraping the inner wall of the cavity and improving cleaning efficiency, thus enhancing overall work efficiency.

[0025] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, outlines some embodiments of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a beverage volume-fixing device, including a volume-fixing cavity 101 for temporary storage of beverages during filling. A volume-fixing head 201 is provided on the lower side of the volume-fixing cavity 101, which discharges the beverage from the cavity 101 into the beverage bottle. A slide rail 202 is fixedly connected inside the cavity 101, controlling and restricting the movement of the volume-fixing head 201 within the cavity. A slider 20 is provided on the upper side of the volume-fixing head 201. 4. The slider 204 is used to directly slide the volume-fixing head 201 to the slide rail 202. The slider 204 has a locking block 205 rotatably connected to its side wall. The slide rail 202 has a locking groove 208 on its inner wall. The locking block 205 engages with the locking groove 208 to restrict and fix the volume-fixing head 201. The inner wall of the locking groove 208 engages with the outer wall of the locking block 205. The size of the locking groove 208 is adapted to the size of the locking block 205, so that the volume-fixing head 201 and the volume-fixing cavity 101 can be directly engaged. In the actual beverage filling process, when different types of beverages need to be filled, the operator can directly remove the currently installed volume-fixing head 201 from the volume-fixing cavity 101, and then select a suitable and matching volume-fixing head 201 according to the specific needs of the beverage to be filled. Then, the suitable volume-fixing head 201 is snapped into the volume-fixing cavity 101 to meet the requirements of different beverage filling for volume and other aspects, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0027] A vertical rod 203 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the volume-fixing head 201. This vertical rod 203 connects the volume-fixing head 201 to the slider 204, allowing them to move synchronously. The end of the vertical rod 203 furthest from the volume-fixing head 201 is fixedly connected to the slider 204. The side wall of the slider 204 is rotatably connected to the end of the locking block 205 near the slider 204. The slider 204 is used to rotatably connect to the locking block 205, allowing the locking block 205 to fold within the slide rail 202, enabling the slider 204 to slide smoothly along the inner wall of the slide rail 202. The slider 204 is close to the volume-fixing head. A fixing plate 206 is fixedly connected to one side of the head 201. The fixing plate 206 is used to fix the first spring 207 so that the first spring 207 can stably drive the locking block 205 to rotate. The first spring 207 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixing plate 206. The side of the first spring 207 away from the fixing plate 206 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the locking block 205. The first spring 207 is used to push the locking block 205 to rotate so that the locking block 205 can be locked into the slot 208. The locking block 205 is a wedge design and the slot 208 is a wedge groove, so that the locking block 205 can slide more smoothly when it is disengaged from the slot 208.

[0028] An annular cleaning scraper 301 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the volume-fixing cavity 101. This scraper is used to scrape the inner wall of the cavity when the beverage is emptied or when filling different beverages. This facilitates cleaning the inside of the cavity when the volume-fixing head 201 is removed, saving the need for manual scraping and improving cleaning efficiency and overall work efficiency. A fixing rod 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the annular cleaning scraper 301, which secures the scraper 301 to the connecting rod 304. Next, a connecting rod 304 is fixedly connected to the middle of the fixed rod 302. The connecting rod 304 is used to link the sliding box 305 and the annular cleaning scraper 301, so that when the sliding box 305 moves, it drives the annular cleaning scraper 301 to move synchronously. The end of the connecting rod 304 away from the fixed rod 302 is fixedly connected to the sliding box 305. The sliding box 305 is used to engage with the slider 204 when the volume-fixing head 201 is removed, so that when the slider 204 moves, it drives the sliding box 305 to move. This allows the annular cleaning scraper 301 to scrape the volume-fixing head 201 from top to bottom when the volume-fixing head 201 is removed from the volume-fixing cavity 101. The inner wall of the cavity 101 has a retaining plate 306 rotatably connected to the side of the sliding box 305 near the slider 204. The retaining plate 306 is used to hold the slider 204 inside the sliding box 305. A third spring 307 is fixedly connected to the side of the retaining plate 306 away from the slider 204. The third spring 307 provides force to the retaining plate 306 to engage the slider 204, allowing the retaining plate 306 to reset and engage the slider 204 after rotation. The side of the third spring 307 away from the retaining plate 306 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding box 305. The side of the sliding box 305 away from the slider 204 is fixedly connected to the third spring 307. A second spring 303 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide rail 202 at one end away from the sliding box 305. The second spring 303 is used to reset the sliding box 305 when the slider 204 disengages from the sliding box 305, thereby driving the annular cleaning scraper 301 to reset for the next cleaning. A push rod 308 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slide rail 202 near the volume-fixing head 201. The push rod 308 is used to push against the clamping plate 306 to rotate, thereby causing the clamping plate 306 to disengage from the slider 204, thereby causing the sliding box 305 to disengage from the slider 204, so that it can be reset normally.

[0029] In summary, the working principle of a beverage volume-fixing device according to an embodiment of this utility model is as follows:

[0030] When the volume-regulating head 201 needs to be replaced, the operator first pushes the volume-regulating head 201 into the volume-regulating cavity 101. This causes the volume-regulating head 201 to move the vertical rod 203 upwards. The upward movement of the vertical rod 203 causes the slider 204 to slide upwards along the inner wall of the slide rail 202. The upward movement of the slider 204 causes the locking block 205 to disengage from the slot 208. Subsequently, the slider 204 touches the locking plate 306, which rotates accordingly, opening the front end of the sliding box 305. The slider 204 then carries the locking block 205 into the sliding box 305. The locking block 205 rotates and unfolds under the extension of the first spring 207, thus engaging with the locking plate 306. At this point, the staff pulls the volume-fixing head 201 out of the volume-fixing cavity 101, thereby moving the vertical rod 203. The vertical rod 203 moves the slider 204 down the inner wall of the slide rail 202. At the same time, the slider 204 moves the sliding box 305 down the inner wall of the slide rail 202, thereby moving the annular cleaning scraper 301 down the inner wall of the volume-fixing cavity 101 to clean the inside of the volume-fixing cavity 101. When the sliding box 305 moves to the lower end of the slide rail 202, the push rod 308 touches the locking plate 306 and rotates, thereby disengaging the locking plate 306 from the slider 204, thereby disengaging the sliding box 305 from the slider 204, so that normal reset can be performed.

[0031] When the appropriate volume-fixing head 201 is ready to be replaced, the staff inserts the volume-fixing head 201 into the volume-fixing cavity 101 and then pushes it in. After the locking block 205 is locked into the locking slot 208, the volume-fixing head 201 is installed.

[0032] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
