[0060] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0061] In the prior art, manual cleaning of dental models involves manually transferring each model individually, resulting in low efficiency and inconsistent quality. In addition, operators are exposed to cleaning fluid and wastewater for extended periods, posing a safety hazard. Furthermore, if the cleaning fluid is not replaced promptly, it can easily become incomplete, and manual replacement of the cleaning fluid is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, this application proposes the following embodiments to achieve automated cleaning of dental models to address the aforementioned issues. The details are as follows:

[0062] Example 1

[0063] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5As shown, this embodiment provides a dental mold cleaning device, which mainly includes: a cleaning frame 100, at least one detergent cleaning mechanism 200, at least one clean water cleaning mechanism 300, a drying mechanism 400, a workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500, and a detergent circulation mechanism 600. The cleaning frame 100 is used to place the dental mold. The cleaning frame 100 adopts a structure with a net outside the frame. The outer dimensions of the net are approximately 180×180×120mm (height excluding handles). The cleaning frame weighs approximately 3kg and can hold a dental mold weighing 1kg; the total weight is approximately 4kg. For the convenience of structural description, the device is arranged in the front-to-back direction as an example. The front-to-back direction is also the conveying direction of the cleaning frame 100 through each cleaning process. The detergent cleaning mechanism 200 contains a detergent (e.g., alcohol) and uses it to clean the dental cast within the cleaning frame 100. The water cleaning mechanism 300 contains water and uses it to clean the dental cast within the cleaning frame 100. Multiple detergent cleaning mechanisms 200 and water cleaning mechanisms 300 can be provided and can be adaptively configured to meet different cleaning requirements. For example, the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and water cleaning mechanism 300 can be arranged sequentially in a front-to-back direction, with a drying mechanism 400 provided last. The drying mechanism 400 is used to dry the dental cast within the cleaning frame 100. The workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 is connected to the cleaning frame 100. Driven by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500, the cleaning frame 100 sequentially enters the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and water cleaning mechanism 300, and finally enters the drying mechanism 400, completing the automatic cleaning process. The workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 also allows the cleaning frames 100 in each process to be cleaned synchronously, improving cleaning efficiency. The detergent circulation mechanism is connected to the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and is used to circulate and filter the detergent in the detergent cleaning mechanism 200. The cleaning liquid of the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 can be filtered or replaced through the detergent circulation mechanism to keep the cleaning liquid clean, thereby ensuring the cleaning quality of the dental mold. Replacing the cleaning liquid through the detergent circulation mechanism saves time and effort and achieves a more controllable cleaning process.

[0064] In this embodiment, the dental cast is placed in a cleaning frame 100 and sequentially fed into the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and the water cleaning mechanism 300 via a workpiece lifting and traversing mechanism 500. This cleans the 3D printing resin and industrial alcohol from the dental cast. The cleaned cleaning frame 100 is then fed into the drying mechanism 400 via the workpiece lifting and traversing mechanism 500. The drying mechanism 400 dries the dental cast, completing the dental cast cleaning process. Furthermore, multiple cleaning frames 100 can be simultaneously operated in the detergent cleaning mechanism 200, the water cleaning mechanism 300, and the drying mechanism 400. The dental cast cleaning device fully automatically controls the entire cleaning process, achieving automated cleaning of multiple steps in the dental cast. Furthermore, the automated cleaning process not only improves cleaning efficiency but also utilizes a standardized control process, enabling large-scale, unified automated cleaning, ensuring consistent quality of dental cast cleaning. The operator is not required to come into contact with the solvent or the dental cast during the cleaning process, thereby avoiding direct or indirect contact with residual resin and solvent, thus ensuring operator health.

[0065] The solution of this embodiment realizes fully automatic cleaning of printed models (dental molds) and realizes precise automatic cleaning, so that the dirt on the surface of the braces model (dental mold) can be quickly removed. It is only necessary to manually frame the dental mold and then place the cleaning frame 100 on the equipment for batch cleaning. The automated process saves operation time and labor, simplifies the process, reduces costs and increases efficiency, realizes a fully digital production model, and ensures quality stability.

[0066] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown, in the specific structure of this embodiment, the dental mold cleaning device includes a frame 700, with an inlet mechanism 710 disposed at the front side of the frame 700 and an outlet mechanism 720 disposed at the rear end of the frame 700. The detergent cleaning mechanism 200, the water cleaning mechanism 300, and the drying mechanism 400 are sequentially arranged between the inlet mechanism 710 and the outlet mechanism 720 in the front-to-back direction. The workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 is disposed between the inlet mechanism 710 and the outlet mechanism 720 and is used to sequentially transport the cleaning frame 100 on the inlet mechanism 710 to the detergent cleaning mechanism 200, the water cleaning mechanism 300, and the drying mechanism 400, and then to place it on the outlet mechanism 720, where it is then transported out by the outlet mechanism 720. The inlet mechanism and the outlet mechanism 720 have similar structures, both using stainless steel chains for transmission. Taking the inlet mechanism as an example, the stainless steel chains are arranged on the left and right sides. When the cleaning frame 100 is placed on the stainless steel chains, the chains move synchronously on the left and right sides, dragging the cleaning frame 100 to move and enter the interior of the device housing. A clearance slot is provided in the middle of the rear end of the feed structure, and a jacking assembly 730 is installed in the clearance slot. When the cleaning frame 100 moves above the clearance slot, the jacking assembly 730 lifts the cleaning frame 100, allowing it to reach the position of the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500. The cleaning frame 100 is then clamped by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 and then moved back and forth by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 to be delivered to different workstations. The jacking assembly 730 adopts a cylinder-driven upward push structure.

[0067] like Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, there are two detergent cleaning mechanisms 200 and two clean water cleaning mechanisms 300; the two clean water cleaning mechanisms 300 are arranged between the two detergent cleaning mechanisms 200, and the drying mechanism 400 is arranged on the rear side of the latter detergent cleaning mechanism 200. Therefore, the two detergent cleaning mechanisms 200, the two clean water cleaning mechanisms 300 and the drying mechanism 400 form five workstations. By adopting this cleaning process, the cleaning effect of the dental mold can be well guaranteed, and the resin, powder, etc. on the dental mold can be cleaned. This cleaning process was used for experimental verification, specifically: within 5 days, a total of 25 batches and 423 models were verified for cleaning results, of which 7 models were unqualified, and the overall qualified rate was 98.3%. The standard for cleaning the model currently meets the production standard. The verification method is: after the model is cleaned with an automatic cleaning machine, the surface of the model is blown dry to observe whether there is any resin residue on the surface of the model. The specific experimental data are as follows:

[0068]

[0069] like Figure 3 、 Figure 5As shown, the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 of this embodiment specifically includes: a transverse driving assembly 510, a first transverse driving cylinder 520, a first transverse clamping frame 530, a second transverse driving cylinder 540, a second transverse clamping frame 550, an upper and lower driving assembly 560 and a lifting bracket 570. The first transverse driving cylinder 520 and the second transverse driving cylinder 540 are both connected to the transverse driving assembly 510 and move in the front and rear directions by the drive of the transverse driving assembly 510; there are multiple first transverse clamping frames 530, and multiple first transverse support frames are all connected to the first transverse driving cylinder 520, and multiple second transverse clamping frames 550 are correspondingly arranged to the first transverse clamping frames 530, and the second transverse clamping frames 550 are connected to the second transverse driving cylinder 540. The second transverse clamping frames 550 and the first transverse clamping frames 530 clamp the cleaning frame 100 by moving towards each other, and the second transverse clamping frames 550 and the first transverse clamping frames 530 release the cleaning frame 100 by moving away from each other; the upper and lower driving assembly 560 is arranged on the frame 700, and the lifting bracket 570 is connected to the upper and lower driving assembly 560, and drives the cleaning frame 100 to move up and down by the drive of the upper and lower driving assembly 560. Specifically, the lifting bracket 570 includes multiple lifting trays 572 and a connecting bracket 571 that connects all of the lifting trays 572. The lifting trays 572 are respectively arranged in the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and the clean water cleaning mechanism 300. The connecting bracket 571 is connected to the upper and lower drive assembly 560, which is a chain drive assembly. Its power motor uses a 1HP brake motor with variable speed and adjustable frequency. Driven by the chain drive assembly, the connecting bracket 571 drives all of the lifting trays 572 to move up and down within the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and the clean water cleaning mechanism 300. The second transverse clamping frame 550 and the first transverse clamping frame 530 form a pair of clamping structures. These clamping structures are located above each of the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and the clean water cleaning mechanism 300, above the drying device, and above either the inlet mechanism 710 or the outlet mechanism 720. The transverse drive assembly 510 is powered by a motor-driven ball screw assembly. The ball screw assembly is connected to a movable platform 511. The movable platform 511 is driven by the ball screw assembly to move in the front-to-back direction. The first transverse drive cylinder 520 and the second transverse drive cylinder 540 are arranged in opposite directions. The first transverse drive cylinder 520 is connected to all the first transverse clamping frames 530, and the second transverse drive cylinder 540 is connected to all the second transverse clamping frames 550. When the first transverse drive cylinder 520 and the second transverse drive cylinder 540 are pushed simultaneously, the second transverse clamping frames 550 and the first transverse clamping frames 530 can approach each other to clamp the cleaning frame 100. When the first transverse drive cylinder 520 and the second transverse drive cylinder 540 are retracted simultaneously, the second transverse clamping frames 550 and the first transverse clamping frames 530 move in opposite directions, releasing the cleaning frame 100.

[0070] like Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the specific working process of the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 is: after the lifting component 730 lifts the cleaning frame 100, it reaches the height of the first transverse clamping frame 530 and the second transverse clamping frame 550, and is located between the opened first transverse clamping frame 530 and the second transverse clamping frame 550, the first transverse driving cylinder 520 and the second transverse driving cylinder 540 are started at the same time, so that the first transverse clamping frame 530 and the second transverse clamping frame 550 move toward the middle and clamp the cleaning frame 100 located in the middle. After clamping the cleaning frame 100, the lifting assembly 730 returns to its position, the transverse drive assembly 510 starts, driving the first transverse clamping frame 530 and the second transverse clamping frame 550 to move backward to the position of the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200, the upper and lower drive assembly 560 starts and drives the lifting bracket 570 to rise, and then the bottom of the cleaning frame 100 contacts the lifting tray 572, the first transverse drive cylinder 520 and the second transverse drive cylinder 540 retract at the same time, so that the first transverse clamping frame 530 and the second transverse clamping frame 550 move toward both sides and release the cleaning frame 100 in the middle, and the cleaning frame 100 is placed on the lifting tray 572 to achieve connection with the lifting bracket 570. The transverse drive assembly 510 starts and returns to its original position, driving the first transverse clamping frame 530 and the second transverse clamping frame 550 to form a first clamping structure that moves forward to the top of the air-avoiding slot of the incoming structure, waiting to receive the next cleaning frame 100. During the process of the first clamping structure returning to its original position, the second clamping structure is moved to the position of the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200, and the third clamping structure is moved to the position of the first clean water cleaning mechanism, and so on. When the cleaning is completed in the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200, the lifting bracket 570 moves the cleaning frame 100 to the second clamping structure above. Similarly, the second clamping structure clamps the cleaning frame 100 and then moves it backward into the clean water cleaning mechanism 300, placing it on the lifting tray 572 in the clean water cleaning structure, and then returns to the top of the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200, and so on. In this way, the cleaning frame 100 is transported in sequence in each process and the step shift in each process is achieved.

[0071] like Figure 3As shown, in addition, in order to enhance the cleaning effect, a throwing assembly 580 can be provided on the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500. The throwing assembly 580 is provided on the upper and lower driving assembly 560 and connected to the lifting bracket 570. The lifting bracket 570 is reciprocated in the upper and lower directions so that the cleaning frame 100 on each lifting tray 572 of the lifting bracket 570 is thrown in the solution. The throwing assembly 580 in this embodiment specifically includes: a throwing motor 581, an eccentric wheel 582 and a connecting rod 583. The throwing motor 581 is connected to the upper and lower driving assembly 560, and the eccentric wheel 582 is connected to the throwing motor 581. The eccentric wheel 582 is connected to the throwing motor 581, and the eccentric wheel 582 is connected to the lifting bracket 570. A guide rail is provided on the upper and lower driving assembly 560, and the lifting bracket 570 can slide up and down on the guide rail. The tossing motor 581 is activated, rotating the eccentric wheel 582, which in turn drives the connecting rod 583, which in turn drives the lifting bracket 570 in a reciprocating vertical motion. This in turn drives the cleaning frame 100 in vertical motion within the cleaning mechanism. The tossing assembly 580 offers excellent operational stability and low noise. During the cleaning process, the dental model within the cleaning frame 100 is tossed evenly, increasing friction between the model and the liquid, which helps to quickly remove dirt from the model surface and improve the cleaning effect. The tossing frequency is 15 times / minute, and the tossing distance is 50 mm.

[0072] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6As shown, the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 in this embodiment specifically includes: a detergent cleaning tank 210, a liquid storage tank 211, a first ultrasonic vibration plate 220, a first bubbling tube 250, and a solution internal circulation component 230. The detergent cleaning tank 210 is used to accommodate the cleaning frame 100. The liquid storage tank 211 is separated from the detergent cleaning tank 210 by a partition 212. The partition 212 is provided with an overflow port 213, which connects the detergent cleaning tank 210 and the liquid storage tank 211. The solution internal circulation component 230 connects the detergent cleaning tank 210 and the liquid storage tank 211, and is used to filter the cleaning liquid in the liquid storage tank 211 and then send it to the detergent cleaning tank 210. By providing a single-sided overflow port 213 in the cleaning tank, the floating liquid in the cleaning tank is flowed into the liquid storage tank 211 through the overflow port 213. The solution internal circulation component 230 includes a circulation pump 232, a filter 231, and an internal circulation pipeline. The filter 231 is set at the liquid outlet position of the cleaning tank. The circulation pump 232 adopts a magnetic pump. The magnetic pump connects the filter 231 and the cleaning tank. The solution internal circulation component 230 keeps the cleaning agent in the cleaning tank clean, which is more conducive to the cleaning of the dental mold. The filter 231 adopts a stainless steel shell. The filtration accuracy of the filter 231 in the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200 is: fine filtration 5u, fine filtration 2u. The filtration accuracy of the filter 231 in the second detergent cleaning mechanism 200 is: fine filtration 2u, fine filtration 1u. The filters 231 in the two detergent cleaning mechanisms 200 both adopt double filtration to improve the filtration accuracy. A pressure gauge is installed on the filter 231 to prompt the replacement of the filter element.

[0073] The first ultrasonic vibration plate 220 is installed at the bottom of the detergent tank 210 and is used to ultrasonically clean the cleaning solution within the tank. It utilizes a flanged plate for easy maintenance. It houses 12 ultrasonic vibrators, operates at a frequency of 40 kHz, and has an adjustable power of 600 W. The plate is constructed of 82.0 mm thick SUS304 and is hard-chrome plated. The ultrasonic generator utilizes an IGBT amplifier tube, offering continuously adjustable power between 30% and 100%, a photoelectric display, and a sweep output function.

[0074] The first bubbling tube 250 is arranged at the bottom of the detergent cleaning tank 210 and is used to blow air into the cleaning liquid in the detergent cleaning tank 210; the first bubbling tube 250 is a stainless steel bubbling tube, and multiple small holes are evenly punched on the first bubbling tube 250. Compressed air is blown through the holes to agitate the liquid in the tank to form bubbles, thereby accelerating cleaning.

[0075] In addition, the detergent tank 210 is equipped with a low-liquid level control. When the liquid is empty, the circulation pump 232 is automatically shut down and an audible and visual alarm is activated. The bottom of the liquid storage tank 211 is tilted to allow for sedimentation of any overflow from the detergent tank 210. A drain valve is located at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 211 for direct and separate discharge.

[0076] like Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a liquid cooling assembly 240 is installed within the detergent cleaning tank 210. The liquid cooling assembly 240 includes a cooling coil 241, a compressor 243, and a radiator 242. The cooling coil 241 is installed within the liquid storage tank 211, with cold air circulating within it. The radiator 242 is connected to the cooling coil 241 and is located away from the detergent cleaning mechanism 200. The cooling coil 241 is constructed of SUS304 tubing, with an inlet and outlet port. Cold air circulates within the coil, supplied by a 2HP compressor 243. To enhance heat dissipation, both the radiator 242 and the compressor 243 are placed at the top of the device. The radiator 242 is located away from the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and is connected to an exhaust duct at the top of the device. The heat dissipated by the compressor 243 and radiator 242 is continuously extracted by the suction assembly 800. Because the cleaning agent (e.g., alcohol) generates heat during the cleaning process due to ultrasonic oscillation and bubbling, if the cleaning agent is not cooled, the hot cleaning agent will cause the dental mold to heat up, and the heated dental mold will easily deform, which will affect the accuracy of the dental mold. Therefore, in this embodiment, the cleaning agent is cooled by the cooling coil 241, so that the cleaning agent can remain cool even when subjected to ultrasonic oscillation and bubbling during the cleaning process, thereby not heating the dental mold and keeping the dental mold at a cool temperature, ensuring that the dental mold does not deform during the cleaning process, thereby ensuring that the accuracy of the dental mold during the cleaning process is not affected by temperature. In addition, the cleaning agent (e.g., alcohol) is also volatile and flammable. When subjected to ultrasonic oscillation and bubbling, it is easy to smoke and evaporate. However, after using the cooling coil 241 for cooling, the cleaning agent can be ensured not to be heated, thereby preventing the volatilized cleaning agent from burning and igniting, greatly reducing the fire risk of flammable cleaning agents.

[0077] The cleaning agent used in the cleaning agent cleaning mechanism 200 of this embodiment is alcohol. Periodic testing has shown that the alcohol concentration in the first tank of the cleaning agent cleaning mechanism 200 decreases by 15.40-6% per day. After approximately 2,000 dental models have been cleaned (4-6 days of cleaning), the alcohol concentration must drop below 15%. At this point, the model cannot be completely cleaned and the alcohol needs to be replaced or replenished.

[0078] like Figure 9As shown, this embodiment facilitates the replacement and replenishment of alcohol through a cleaning agent circulation mechanism 600. The cleaning agent circulation mechanism 600 specifically comprises a first pump body 610, a waste liquid tank 620, a second pump body 630, a refiner 640, a pure alcohol transfer tank 650, and a pure alcohol tank 660. A first valve 611 and a second valve 612 are respectively provided at the inlet and outlet of the first pump body 610, while a third valve 631 and a fourth valve 632 are respectively provided at the inlet and outlet of the second pump body 630. Through adjustment of the valves, the cleaning agent circulation mechanism 600 forms two circuits. One circuit is as follows: the liquid outlet of the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 is connected to a first valve 611, which connects the liquid outlet of the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 to the inlet of the first pump body 610. A second valve 612 on the outlet of the first pump body 610 connects to a waste liquid tank 620, which is connected to a third valve 613 on the inlet of the second pump body 630. The third valve connects the waste liquid tank 620 to the second pump body 630. A fourth valve 614 on the outlet of the second pump body 630 connects to a refiner 640. The fourth valve 614 connects the outlet of the second pump body 630 to the refiner 640, which in turn connects the refiner 640 to a pure alcohol transfer tank 650. In this circuit, alcohol in the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 can be pumped into the refiner 640 for refining and filtration before being placed into the pure alcohol transfer tank 650.

[0079] The second circuit connects the pure alcohol transfer tank 650 to the third valve at the inlet of the second pump body 630, and the fourth valve at the outlet of the second pump body 630 to the pure alcohol tank 660. The third valve connects the inlet of the second pump body 630 to the pure alcohol transfer tank 650, and the fourth valve connects the outlet of the second pump body 630 to the pure alcohol tank 660. The pure alcohol tank 660 is connected to the first valve at the inlet of the first pump body 610, and the second valve at the outlet of the first pump body 610 is connected to the detergent cleaning mechanism 200. The first valve connects the pure alcohol tank 660 to the inlet of the first pump body 610, and the second valve connects the outlet of the first pump body 610 to the detergent cleaning mechanism 200. This circuit allows alcohol from the pure alcohol transfer tank 650 to be transferred to the detergent cleaning mechanism 200, replacing the detergent within the detergent cleaning mechanism 200.

[0080] Through the detergent circulation mechanism 600, in a first loop, the alcohol within the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 is pumped into a refiner 640. Refiner 640 filters, removes slag, and purifies the extracted alcohol. This purifies the used alcohol and then discharges it into a pure alcohol transfer tank 650 for collection, converting the used alcohol into pure alcohol. The alcohol in the pure alcohol transfer tank 650 is then fed into the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 through a second loop, replacing and purifying the alcohol within the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 and allowing it to be recycled. This not only allows for alcohol recycling, significantly reducing alcohol usage during the cleaning process, but also enhances the cleaning effect.

[0081] like Figure 7 As shown, the clean water cleaning mechanism 300 in this embodiment specifically includes: a clean water cleaning tank 310, a second ultrasonic vibration plate 320, and a second bubbling tube 330. The clean water cleaning tank 310 has a water inlet, and the bottom of the clean water cleaning tank 310 is an inclined tank bottom, and the bottom of the inclined tank bottom is provided with a water outlet; the second ultrasonic vibration plate 320 is provided at the bottom of the clean water cleaning tank 310 and is used to ultrasonically clean the cleaning liquid in the clean water cleaning tank 310; the second bubbling tube 330 is provided at the bottom of the clean water cleaning tank 310 and is used to blow air into the cleaning liquid in the clean water cleaning tank 310. The second ultrasonic vibration plate 320 and the second bubbling tube 330 in the clean water cleaning mechanism 300 can refer to the structure of the detergent cleaning mechanism 200.

[0082] like Figure 8 As shown, the drying mechanism 400 in this embodiment specifically includes: a drying chamber 410, a chassis rotating mechanism 420, and an air pipe 430. The drying chamber 410 is used to accommodate the cleaning frame 100; the chassis rotating mechanism 420 is disposed at the bottom of the drying chamber 410 and is used to drive the cleaning frame 100 to rotate; the air pipe 430 is disposed on the inner wall of the drying chamber 410 and is provided with an air nozzle 431 for blowing air toward the cleaning frame 100. The rotation speed of the chassis rotating mechanism 420 is adjustable from 50 to 200 rpm. The motor in the chassis rotating mechanism 420 is driven by a belt. A locking cylinder 421 and a locking block 422 are provided on the chassis rotating mechanism 420. The locking cylinder 421 drives the locking block 422 to lock the cleaning frame 100 on the chassis rotating mechanism 420. The motor is explosion-proof. In addition, an exhaust port is provided at the upper portion of the drying chamber 410 and is connected to the suction pipe of the suction assembly 800 of the equipment.

[0083] In addition, to facilitate the rotation of the cleaning frame 100 on the chassis rotating mechanism 420, the lifting bracket 570 is not provided at the position of the drying mechanism 400. A robotic arm 440 is provided, which specifically includes a lifting drive assembly, a suspension 441 connected to the lifting drive assembly, and a claw cylinder 442 connected to the suspension 441. A handle 110 is provided on the upper portion of the cleaning frame 100. The claw cylinder 442 can clamp or release the handle 110. When the handle 110 is clamped, the cleaning frame 100 can be placed on the chassis rotating mechanism 420. After drying is completed, the cleaning frame 100 is lifted by the robotic arm 440 to the second horizontal clamping frame 550 and the first horizontal clamping frame 530 on the drying mechanism 400.

[0084] like Figure 1 As shown, the dental mold cleaning equipment also includes a suction assembly 800, which is located above the detergent cleaning mechanism 200, the water cleaning mechanism 300, and the drying mechanism 400. The suction assembly 800 includes an exhaust hood and an exhaust duct located on the hood. A dedicated exhaust hood is installed on the top of the equipment to reduce the odor of the detergent. The exhaust duct is equipped with a fan (with a manual valve to adjust the exhaust volume). The fan is explosion-proof, and the exhaust fan outlet can be connected to the workshop exhaust pipe 430.

[0085] The suction assembly 800 also extracts alcohol volatilized by the detergent cleaning mechanism 200, preventing the risk of fire caused by alcohol concentration. An automatic fire extinguishing mechanism is also provided, including a temperature sensor and a fire extinguisher. The fire extinguisher is mounted on the left side of the device, and the extinguishing temperature is set to 90 degrees Celsius. If a fire occurs and the temperature detected by the temperature sensor exceeds the set temperature, the fire extinguisher nozzle automatically sprays the fire extinguishing medium, isolating the air and extinguishing the fire. Therefore, the device can be equipped with four temperature sensors and four fire extinguisher nozzles, distributed in flammable locations on the device.

[0086] To achieve automated control, the machine's frame 700 is equipped with a touchscreen for control. It houses a PLC, relays, air switches, transformers, and other master control circuits. The operation panel houses control switches, temperature controllers, and alarms. The touchscreen is locked to prevent unauthorized personnel from modifying or setting parameters. The wash time and slow-draw spin time for each tank can be set. If the machine stops operating due to an abnormality, the cause can be identified on the touchscreen. Temperature anomalies in the washing tanks during startup and heating will not trigger an alarm. Emergency stop switches are located in the loading and unloading sections and in the center of the machine. To save space, all ultrasonic generators are mounted on the top of the machine, allowing for individual control of each tank's ultrasonic output. The ultrasonic output intensity of each tank can be manually adjusted, and the ultrasonic wave is activated when the lifting mechanism descends.

[0087] Example 2

[0088] This embodiment provides a dental mold cleaning method, which is applied to the dental mold cleaning device described above. The method mainly includes the following steps:

[0089] Step S10: The cleaning frame 100 is moved into the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200 by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500, so that the dental model in the cleaning frame 100 is cleaned in the first detergent cleaning mechanism 200 for a first predetermined time, wherein the dental model is cleaned in the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 by ultrasonic and bubbling methods, and the dental model is tossed;

[0090] Step S20: The cleaning frame 100 that has been cleaned for the first time is moved into the first clean water cleaning mechanism 300 by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500, so that the dental cast in the cleaning frame 100 is cleaned in the first clean water cleaning mechanism for a second predetermined time. The dental cast is cleaned in the clean water cleaning mechanism 300 by ultrasonic and bubbling methods, and the dental cast is tossed.

[0091] Step S30: The cleaning frame 100 that has been cleaned for the second time is moved to the second clean water cleaning mechanism 300 by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500, so that the dental cast in the cleaning frame 100 is cleaned in the second clean water cleaning mechanism for a third predetermined time. The dental cast is cleaned in the clean water cleaning mechanism 300 by ultrasonic and bubbling methods, and the dental cast is tossed.

[0092] Step S40: The cleaning frame 100 that has been cleaned for the third time is moved to the second detergent cleaning mechanism 200 by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500, so that the dental cast in the cleaning frame 100 is cleaned in the second detergent cleaning mechanism 200 for a fourth predetermined time, wherein the dental cast is cleaned in the detergent cleaning mechanism 200 by ultrasonic and bubbling methods, and the dental cast is tossed;

[0093] Step S50 : The cleaning frame 100 that has been cleaned for the fourth time is moved to the drying mechanism 400 by the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 , and the dental cast is dried and dehydrated by the drying mechanism 400 .

[0094] During the above process, the dental model cleaning device uses a conveyor belt to transport the cleaning frames 100 one by one. Four cleaning frames 100 can be cleaned at a time. The dental model cleaning device contains four cleaning tanks. Tanks 1 and 4 contain detergent cleaning mechanisms 200, equipped with a filtration and circulation system to filter residue left by dental model printing. A cooling system is also provided for temperature control. Tanks 1 and 4 (the first and second detergent cleaning mechanisms 200) contain alcohol solvent to clean residual printing liquid from the model. Tanks 2 and 3 (the first and second water cleaning mechanisms) contain purified water to clean alcohol residue from the model surface. Each cleaning tank is equipped with an ultrasonic and bubbling system to ensure that the model is fully exposed to the detergent during cleaning, ensuring a more thorough cleaning. During the cleaning process of the dental mold, the washing machine is equipped with a workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 to achieve automatic grabbing. The cleaning frame 100 is automatically grabbed into the cleaning tank according to the preset time. After the cleaning in the previous cleaning tank, the cleaning frame 100 is automatically transferred to the next cleaning tank through the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500. Each cleaning frame 100 needs to be cleaned in four cleaning tanks. After the four stations are cleaned, they enter the drying mechanism 400 for drying and water removal. There are 4 air gun nozzles in the groove of the drying mechanism 400, and rotation and blowing are carried out simultaneously to ensure that the residual liquid on the surface of the model can be completely removed. In addition, the cleaning frames 100 on the five stations are operated synchronously through the workpiece lifting and transverse movement mechanism 500 to improve the cleaning efficiency.

[0095] The final verification execution standard parameters of each cleaning pool in the equipment are as follows:

[0096]

[0097] In addition, after the cleaned dental mold is cleaned from the dental mold cleaning equipment, the following steps are performed:

[0098] Step S60: Curing the dental model.

[0099] Place the cleaned printed model (dental mold) into the light curing machine for cleaning.

[0100] Step S70: drying.

[0101] Place the cured dental model in a spin dryer to remove moisture from the model.

[0102] In this example, the dental mold cleaning device was used to conduct a dental mold quality experiment after cleaning. The machine-washed (cleaned by the dental mold cleaning device) and hand-washed single models were compared with the original data, as shown in the following table:

[0103]

[0104] According to the above table, the value range is ±0.05, and the tolerance values are all above 95%, indicating that the single dental mold cleaned by the dental mold cleaning device has not been deformed.

[0105] In summary, the dental mold cleaning equipment and cleaning method provided by the present application achieve fully automated cleaning of the equipment, with fast cleaning speed and good effect. The use of digitalization can solve the situation of high demand and high cost for people, reduce the company's demand for tight personnel, and assist in production scheduling to a certain extent. The optimization and improvement of the process can reduce the production time, compress the production time, and improve production efficiency; realize the equipment assembly line operation, fully automate the work process, equipment technical parameters, working environment requirements, system configuration, material use requirements, and form a cleaning system with traceability of quality management, achieve quality stability, and controllable inspection. The use of relatively economical clean water and alcohol for cleaning and recycled water tanks meets environmental protection requirements.

[0106] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
