The invention discloses a
rust removal device and method. The
rust removal method comprises the steps that after
intermediate frequency rectification of an incoming intermediate-frequency low-voltagealternating current
signal is carried out through an
intermediate frequency rectification circuit, a
direct current signal is output to a
nozzle and an
electrode through a positive
electrode output end and a negative
electrode output end, an arc starting circuit outputs a target frequency
signal and the target frequency signal is coupled to the negative electrode output end to enable an electrodeto
discharge, and a gas igniting arc between the electrode and the
nozzle is broken down; and the arc is ejected from a narrow hole channel of the
nozzle by compressed gas, the compressed
arc energy is more concentrated, and the gas in an
arc column is fully ionized to form a high-temperature
plasma arc. The high-temperature and high-speed
plasma arc acts on a rusty workpiece, and after
rust markson the surface of the rusty workpiece are heated by the
plasma arc and subjected to the high-speed
impact of a plasma, the rust marks instantly expand, deform, break and finally fall off the surfaceof the workpiece to achieve the effect of rust removal. According to the rust removal device and method, rust marks on various shapes of workpieces can be efficiently cleaned, large amount of dust produced by mechanical friction is avoided,
low noise and
environmental protection are achieved, no special rust removal site is required, and the practicality is high.
