Claims (20)

1. The container cleaning method consists of the following steps: Providing a container with a predetermined inner wall and parameters, and an opening at one end; aligning the container so that the opening is at the bottom and facing downwards; generating resonant vibrations within the container at a predetermined frequency in the air inside the container, where the predetermined resonant frequency is determined in part, at least by the predetermined structural parameters of the container; the resonant vibrations are at a sound pressure level sufficient to displace any dispersed solid particles from the inner wall of the container, but not to the level that affects the structural integrity of the container; and maintaining the resonant vibrations within the enclosed container for a sufficient period to adequately displace all dispersed solid particles from the inner wall of the container. 2. The cleaning method under claim 1, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the generation of audible sound waves and the direction of these sound waves toward the mouth of the container at a frequency and sound pressure level sufficient to generate resonance vibrations to dislodge solid particles dispersed on the inner wall of the container. 3. The cleaning method under claim 2, whereby the resonance generation process includes the provision of a transducer that is an audio amplification circuit with a high audio output and a variable band-pass frequency range, and a speaker whose output is directed towards the mouth of the container. 4. The cleaning method under claim 2, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the provision of a noise control cutoff mechanism that generates out-of-phase sound waves with frequencies and pressure levels similar to the resonance frequencies, and the direction of the out-of-phase sound waves to exit the container opening to cut off the resonance frequency waves as necessary, so that they are not released into the surrounding environment beyond the general vicinity of the container or system. 5. The cleaning method under claim 3, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the provision of a noise control adjustment section that provides out-of-phase sound waves with a frequency and sound pressure level similar to the resonance frequency generated by the transducer amplification circuit, and the direction of the out-of-phase sound waves to exit the mouth of the container to filter out the resonance frequency waves as necessary, so that they are not released into the surrounding environment beyond the general vicinity of the container. 6. The cleaning method under claim 2, where the resonance generation step includes calculating a predetermined resonance frequency based on the structural characteristics of the vessel before the audible sound wave generation step. 7. The cleaning method under claim 1 involves the removal of debris from the bottle being assisted by a cap in which an internal vacuum is created. 8. The cleaning method according to claim 1, whereby the resonance vibration generation procedure is carried out by moving the container to the cover, in which the resonance vibration generation is performed inside the cover. 9. The cleaning method under claim 1, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the transmission of an electrical signal through at least one Category D amplified transducer. 10. The cleaning method under claim 1, whereby the procedure for providing such container includes the provision of bottles with known structural characteristics and includes the calculation of the required resonance frequency using the characteristics of the bottles. 11. The cleaning method under claim 10 includes procedures for adjusting the frequency of the audible sound waves to be close to the calculated resonance frequency, observing the amount of resonance vibration in the bottle wall, and generating a frequency that provides the maximum amount of resonance vibration. 12. The cleaning method under claim 1, whereby the resonance generation procedure involves the transmission of a compressible fluid stream across the side opening of the container at a speed and energy level sufficient to generate resonance vibrations of the energy level required to dislodge solid particles dispersed on the inner walls of the container. 13. The cleaning method under claim 1, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the provision of a noise control mechanism that generates out-of-phase sound waves with a frequency and intensity equal to the resonance frequency generated by the compressible fluid current, and the direction of the out-of-phase sound waves to exit the container opening to necessaryly filter out the resonance frequency from being released into the surrounding environment beyond the vicinity of the container. 14. The cleaning method under claim 1, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the generation of audible waves with an intensity ranging from approximately 70 decibels to approximately 115 decibels. 15. The cleaning method under claim 14, whereby the resonance generation procedure includes the generation of audible waves with an intensity ranging from approximately 90 decibels to approximately 115 decibels for a period of approximately 2.0 to approximately 3.0 seconds. 16. The cleaning procedure under Claim 1, which also includes container disinfection procedures. 17. The cleaning method under claim 1 also includes a procedure for disinfecting the container by irradiating the container for a sufficient period of time to eliminate any organic contaminants on the inner wall. 18. A system used for cleaning enclosed sections of containers, where the enclosed section is defined by the inner wall. The system consists of the following components: a bottle stopper for holding multiple containers in at least one direction relative to the horizontal, where the container has an enclosed section with predetermined parameters and a mouth at one end; a directional alignment mechanism for aligning the conveyor-mounted containers so that the mouth is at the bottom and opens downwards; and a cleaning station with nozzles that generate resonant vibrations within the container at a predetermined air frequency within the enclosed section. The predetermined resonant frequency is partially determined, at least by, predetermined structural parameters of the container enclosed section. The resonant vibrations are at a level of energy sufficient to dislodge any dispersed solid particles from the inner wall of the container, but not at a level that affects the structural integrity of the container. 19. A cleaning system for the enclosed parts of the container as per claim 18, whereby the system shall also include a disinfection station that directs electromagnetic radiation of at least ultraviolet frequency toward the walls of the container to eliminate any organic contaminants on the inner wall. 20. A closed vessel cleaning system as per claim 18, whereby the cleaning station shall include an amplified loudspeaker capable of generating a frequency and sound pressure range to produce Helmholtz resonance vibrations in the closed vessel, where the resonance vibrations are at an energy level sufficient to drive any dispersed solid particles out of the inner walls of the vessel, but not at an energy level that affects the structural integrity of the vessel walls.
