As shown inFIG.1toFIG.7, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a container washing device in combination with a telescopic adjustment structure of a container washing device according to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a scrubbing rod rotating structure of a container washing device according to a second aspect of the present disclosure and an apparatus for scrubbing a container port according to a third aspect of the present disclosure.

Specifically, the container washing device includes a supporting rod1, a connecting sleeve2, a scrubbing rod3, a cup holder, a guide sleeve5, a spring6, a mounting sleeve7and a water-receiving groove8. The connecting sleeve2extends in a longitudinal direction, and has a first end part and a second end part sequentially from top to bottom in the longitudinal direction. The scrubbing rod3is connected to the first end part and extends in the longitudinal direction away from the connecting sleeve2, the supporting rod1extends in the longitudinal direction, and the top end of the supporting rod abuts against the second end part to support the connecting sleeve2. A first spiral protrusion structure extending in the longitudinal direction is arranged at a peripheral side of the connecting sleeve2, a first spiral groove matched with the first spiral protrusion structure is formed in an inner wall of the guide sleeve5, and the connecting sleeve2is slidingly connected to the guide sleeve5through the first spiral protrusion structure and the first spiral groove. The apparatus for scrubbing the container port is slidingly sleeved at a peripheral side of the scrubbing rod3, and the bottom of the apparatus for scrubbing the container port is connected to the top end of the guide sleeve5. The spring6is arranged inside the guide sleeve5, and two ends of the spring in a compression direction thereof abut against the bottom of a cup holder and the first end part, respectively. The mounting sleeve7is sleeved at the peripheral side of the guide sleeve5, a peripheral side of the mounting sleeve7is provided with a mounting thread; the water-receiving groove8is spirally connected to the mounting thread at the peripheral side of the mounting sleeve7through a first nut9and a second nut10, and is located below the cup holder; and a groove wall of the water-receiving groove8is connected to a third scrubbing piece802.

Preferably, a plurality of water inlet holes701capable of communicating a pressure source are formed at the bottom of the mounting sleeve7, so that a washing medium provided by the pressure source can enter the mounting sleeve7through the water inlet hole701. A through hole is formed at the bottom of the guide sleeve5, and a size of the through hole is greater than outer diameters of the supporting rod1and the connecting sleeve2, so that a gap is present between the through hole, the supporting rod1and the connecting sleeve2, a water inlet501is formed, and a washing medium inside the mounting sleeve7can enter the guide sleeve5through the water inlet501. A flow-passing channel201is formed inside the connecting sleeve2, and a plurality of flow-passing holes202communicating with the flow-passing channel201are formed in a side part of the connecting sleeve2, so that a washing medium inside the guide sleeve5can enter the flow-passing channel201through the flow-passing holes202. A pipeline communicating with the flow-passing channel201is formed inside the scrubbing rod3, and a plurality of water outlet holes302communicating with the pipeline are formed in a top side of the scrubbing rod3, so that a washing medium in the flow-passing channel201can enter the pipeline inside the scrubbing rod3and finally can flow out of the plurality of water outlet holes302in the top side of the scrubbing rod3, thereby washing the inner wall of the cup container11and the bottom of the cup.

Preferably, a sealing ring203is respectively sleeved at the peripheral side and the top side of the connecting sleeve2, and the sealing ring203can seal a gap at a position where the connecting sleeve2and the guide sleeve5are in threaded engagement, thereby preventing the washing medium from leaking from the threaded engagement gap.

Preferably, the apparatus for washing the container port has six brackets4arranged radially around the scrubbing rod3; any two adjacent brackets4have a 60-degree included angle; three inserting grooves401are formed in each of the brackets4in a radial direction thereof to adapt to at least three cup containers11with different container port sizes; and approximately three concentric ring grooves are formed radially among the inserting grooves401of the six brackets4, and the three concentric ring grooves can be configured to accommodate at least three container ports with different diameters.

Preferably, first scrubbing pieces301are arranged at the top side and the peripheral side of the scrubbing rod3, second scrubbing pieces401aare arranged in the inserting grooves401, and a third scrubbing piece802is arranged on the inner wall of the water-receiving groove8. The first scrubbing pieces301, the second scrubbing pieces401aand the third scrubbing piece802may adopt one or a combination of more of plastic, silica gel or cotton fiber to form a bunched structure or a strip block-shaped structure. Specifically, the first scrubbing pieces301, the second scrubbing pieces401aand the third scrubbing piece802may be made of a food-grade PP material.

Preferably, the water-receiving groove8may be formed by an engineering plastic material through injection molding or be formed by a metal material through a sheet metal process; and the water-receiving groove8is located below the cup holder to bear the washing medium after washing.

Preferably, a drainage port801may be formed in one side of the water-receiving groove8and is configured to discharge a washing medium borne therein.

From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiment of the present disclosure achieves the following technical effects:

Compared with the prior art, when the container washing device provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is used, the user can invert the container port of the cup container11, so that the container port is placed in the inserting groove401matched with the size of the container port and formed in the apparatus for scrubbing the container port. The user presses down the cup container11in the longitudinal direction, so that the apparatus for scrubbing the container port moves downwards. The downward movement of the apparatus for scrubbing the container port causes the compression of the spring6to generate elastic deformation. Under the action of the elastic deformation of the spring6and the sliding connection between the guide sleeve5and the connecting sleeve2, the guide sleeve5and the connecting sleeve2rotate relatively and move relatively in the longitudinal direction. Finally, the scrubbing rod3can penetrate into the cup container11while rotating. The first scrubbing piece301on the scrubbing rod3can scrub the inner wall of the cup container11and the bottom of the cup while rotating, extending and contracting. The bracket4in the apparatus for scrubbing the container port can be driven by the guide sleeve5to rotate and wash the container port of the cup container11through the second scrubbing piece401aat the inserting groove401. When the apparatus for washing the container port moves into the water-receiving groove8, the third scrubbing piece802arranged on the inner wall of the water-receiving groove8can scrub an outer wall of the cup container11when the bracket rotates. When the cup container11is washed, a washing medium can enter the guide sleeve5through the water inlet501at the bottom of the guide sleeve5, then enters the flow-passing channel201inside the connecting sleeve2through the flow-passing hole202formed in the side part of the connecting sleeve2, flows into the pipeline inside the scrubbing rod3through the flow-passing channel201, and finally washes the inner wall of the cup container11and the bottom of the cup through the water outlet hole302formed in the top side of the scrubbing rod3in the rotating, extending and contracting process of the scrubbing rod3, thereby washing the cup container11. After washing is completed, the user stops pressing down the cup container11, and in the process of recovering from the elastic deformation, the spring6can drive the apparatus for scrubbing the container port of the container port to reset.

The foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure which may be subject to various modifications and variations to those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure should be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
