[0002] During the processing, transportation and storage of aluminum tubes, dust, oil, oxides and other impurities may adhere to their inner walls. If these impurities are not removed in time, they will affect the quality of the aluminum tubes and reduce the yield rate of the aluminum tubes. Especially for pipes used in refrigeration systems and pneumatic systems, the cleanliness of the inner wall of the aluminum tube is directly related to the normal operation and efficiency of the system. Therefore, cleaning the aluminum tube is very important.

[0003] At present, a Chinese invention patent application with publication number CN117299702A and publication date December 29, 2023 proposes an automatic ultrasonic cleaning machine for steel pipes, including a device body, a support device is provided inside the device body, a slot body is provided inside the support device, an ultrasonic device is provided inside the slot body, a support plate is provided on the top of the support device, a first limit frame and a second limit frame are respectively connected to the outside of the support plate, the first limit frame and the second limit frame are in a corresponding form to each other, a plug block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate, a slot is provided on the top of the support device, and the plug block is connected to the inside of the slot by inlaying;

[0004] When in use, the first limit frame and the second limit frame can be telescopically adjusted inside the support plate, so that they can be cleaned according to steel pipes of different thicknesses and sizes.

[0005] With regard to the above-mentioned related technologies, when cleaning a metal pipe, after the dirt inside the pipe is detached from the inner wall of the pipe, the stains with a density less than that of the detergent will float to the top of the pipe, and the stains with a density greater than that of the detergent will sink to the bottom of the pipe. The stains detached from the inner wall of the pipe will continue to adhere to or settle on the inner wall of the pipe, affecting the cleaning effect of the cavitation effect when using ultrasound to clean the inside of the pipe, especially in the case of a long metal pipe, the attached stains in the pipe are more difficult to remove, there are more attachments inside the metal pipe, and the cleaning effect is not good. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to help the aluminum tube to better discharge the residual stains attached to the inside of the pipeline, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the aluminum tube, the present invention provides an ultrasonic cleaning device for cleaning the surface of the aluminum tube.

[0007] The present invention provides an ultrasonic cleaning device for cleaning the surface of an aluminum tube, which adopts the following technical scheme:

[0008] An ultrasonic cleaning device for cleaning the surface of an aluminum tube comprises a cleaning tank, a lifting mechanism installed inside the cleaning tank, and a cleaning mechanism installed inside the cleaning tank, wherein the cleaning mechanism comprises an ultrasonic component and a temperature control component, wherein the ultrasonic component comprises an ultrasonic transmitter installed on the cleaning tank and an ultrasonic transducer connected to the ultrasonic transmitter, and wherein the temperature control component comprises a heater installed inside the cleaning tank and a temperature sensor installed inside the cleaning tank.

[0009] The lifting mechanism comprises a first lifting assembly and a second lifting assembly, the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly are arranged along the length direction of the cleaning tank, and the height of the first lifting assembly when it descends to the lowest point is greater than the height of the second lifting assembly when it descends to the lowest point;

[0010] The cleaning mechanism also includes a circulation component, which includes a water absorption plate installed on the inner side wall of the cleaning tank, a circulation pump installed in the cleaning tank, the water absorption plate is arranged on the side of the first lifting component away from the second lifting component, a plurality of water absorption holes are arranged on the end surface of the water absorption plate facing the first lifting component, and the plurality of water absorption holes are internally connected, a circulation pipe is arranged on the water inlet of the circulation pump, the other end of the circulation pipe is connected to the water absorption hole, and the water outlet of the circulation pump is connected to the inside of the cleaning tank;

[0011] A filter is also installed inside the cleaning tank, the water inlet of the filter is connected to the water outlet of the circulation pipe, and the water outlet of the filter is communicated with the inside of the cleaning tank.

[0012] By adopting this technical solution, cleaning liquid is added to the cleaning tank, the temperature control component in the cleaning mechanism monitors the temperature of the cleaning liquid in real time through the temperature sensor, the heater heats the cleaning liquid according to the set temperature, the ultrasonic component transmits the ultrasonic signal through the ultrasonic transmitter and converts the ultrasonic signal into high-frequency vibration through the ultrasonic transducer and transmits it to the cleaning liquid, the high-frequency vibration signal produces a cavitation effect in the cleaning liquid for cleaning, when in use, the first lifting component and the second lifting component are lifted at the same time and the aluminum tube is placed on the first lifting component and the second lifting component in the extension direction, and then the first lifting component The first lifting component and the second lifting component descend, completely immersing the aluminum tube in the cleaning liquid, the temperature control component and the ultrasonic component start to work to clean the aluminum tube, and the circulation pump in the circulation component starts to work. Since the aluminum tube is placed along the length direction of the cleaning tank, the water absorption hole of the water absorption plate will face the opening of the aluminum tube. Under the action of the circulation pump, the water absorption hole will drive the cleaning liquid inside the aluminum tube to flow into the water absorption plate. The cleaning liquid flows out of the aluminum tube, then enters the water absorption plate through the water absorption hole, and then enters the circulation pump through the circulation pipe, and then is discharged from the outlet of the circulation pump and flows back to the cleaning tank after being filtered through the filter. When stains adhere to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, they will hinder the formation or rupture of tiny bubbles generated by the cavitation effect (when stains adhere to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, they occupy the space originally belonging to the liquid, reducing the formation of tiny bubbles in the liquid. At the same time, when stains adhere to the surface of the aluminum tube, they will absorb part of the impact force generated when the bubbles burst, resulting in a reduction in the impact force of the cavitation effect on the surface of the aluminum tube), which in turn causes the cavitation effect to be unable to fully play its cleaning role. In this way, when the cleaning liquid in this solution flows and circulates from the inside of the aluminum tube, the cleaning liquid will bring out the stains that have fallen off from the inside of the aluminum tube and reduce the stains attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tube. On the one hand, this can improve the cleaning effect of the aluminum tube. On the other hand, when the aluminum tube is removed for cleaning, it can reduce the stains remaining inside the aluminum tube, thereby simplifying the subsequent operation of rinsing the aluminum tube.

[0013] Optionally, the first lifting assembly includes a first lifting rod installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank and a first support frame installed at the top of the first lifting rod;

[0014] The second lifting assembly includes a second lifting rod mounted at the bottom of the cleaning tank and a second support frame mounted on the top of the second lifting rod;

[0015] When the aluminum tube is immersed in the cleaning tank for cleaning, the height of the first support frame is greater than the height of the second support frame, and the height of the first support frame and the height of the second support frame are both lower than the height of the water absorption plate.

[0016] By adopting this technical solution, when the first lifting rod and the second lifting rod are raised, the first support frame and the second support frame are at the same height. At this time, the aluminum tube is placed on the first support frame and the second support frame. When the first lifting rod and the second lifting rod are lowered to immerse the aluminum tube in the cleaning tank, the height of the first support frame is higher than the height of the second support frame. At this time, since the height of the first support frame and the height of the second support frame are both lower than the height of the water absorption plate, the height of the aluminum tube on one side of the first support frame corresponds to the height of the water absorption plate. At this time, when the water absorption hole absorbs water, the water in the aluminum tube flows from the lower side of the first lifting rod to the higher side of the second lifting rod. In this way, setting the aluminum tube to an inclined setting can reduce the friction between the stains floating upward in the cleaning liquid and the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube, so that the stains floating upward are easier to discharge from the aluminum tube, reducing the probability of the stains adhering to the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube, and further improving the cleaning effect of the aluminum tube.

[0017] Optionally, the cleaning mechanism further includes a vibration assembly, the vibration assembly including a telescopic member installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank, a clamping member installed at the end of the telescopic member, a vibration generator and a first vibration buffer, one end of the telescopic member is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the cleaning tank on the side opposite to the water absorption plate, and the clamping member is installed on the other end of the telescopic member;

[0018] The vibration generator is installed on the end surface of the clamping member facing the water absorbing plate, and the first vibration buffer is installed between the vibration generator and the clamping member;

[0019] And / or the vibration generator is installed on the water absorption plate, and the first vibration buffer is installed between the vibration generator and the water absorption plate.

[0020] By adopting this technical solution, when the aluminum tube is placed on the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly, since the telescopic member and the water absorption plate are arranged relative to each other, when the telescopic member is extended, the clamping member will abut against one end of the aluminum tube, and when the telescopic member continues to extend, the clamping member will clamp the aluminum tube between the water absorption plate and the clamping member, and then the vibration generator arranged on the water absorption plate or on the clamping member starts to vibrate and drives the aluminum tube to vibrate together, and the first vibration buffer can play a buffering role to reduce the vibration between the vibration generator and the components connected to the vibration generator. In this way, the aluminum tube is clamped and fixed between the clamping member and the water absorption plate by the clamping member, and the aluminum tube is driven to vibrate together by the vibration generator. On the one hand, when the aluminum tube vibrates, a shear force is formed between the inner wall of the aluminum tube and the stains attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tube. The stains are more easily separated from the inner wall of the aluminum tube under the action of the shear force, thereby improving the cleaning effect. On the other hand, when the aluminum tube vibrates, the stains attached to the top of the aluminum tube are relatively displaced from the inner wall of the aluminum tube and are more easily carried away by the cleaning liquid circulating in the inner wall of the aluminum tube. The stains deposited on the bottom of the inner wall of the aluminum tube will slide to the lower end of the aluminum tube under the action of vibration, thereby being better discharged from the aluminum tube, thereby further reducing the stains remaining inside the aluminum tube.

[0021] Optionally, the vibration assembly further comprises a first rotating member, a fixed end of the first rotating member is mounted on the telescopic member, and a rotating end of the first rotating member is connected to the clamping member;

[0022] The circulation component further comprises a second rotating member, a fixed end of which is mounted on the inner wall of the cleaning tank, and a rotating end of which is connected to the water absorption plate.

[0023] By adopting this technical solution, since the clamping member is connected to the telescopic member through the first rotating member, when the clamping member abuts against one end of the aluminum tube, the clamping member will stick the entire end face of the clamping member close to the aluminum tube to the open end face of the aluminum tube under the action of the first rotating member, and the water absorbing plate will abut against the end face of the other end opening of the aluminum tube under the action of the second rotating member. In this way, when the aluminum tube is supported on the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly with inconsistent heights, the clamping member and the water absorbing plate can be better clamped and attached to the two ends of the aluminum tube through the first rotating member and the second rotating member, and when the vibration assembly is vibrating, the aluminum tube is clamped more firmly, thereby better driving the aluminum tube to vibrate.

[0024] Optionally, a second vibration buffer is further provided between the first lifting rod and the first supporting frame;

[0025] A third vibration buffer is also arranged between the second lifting rod and the second supporting frame.

[0026] By adopting this technical solution, when the aluminum tube vibrates along with the vibration assembly, the first support frame and the second support frame are both in contact with the aluminum tube, and the second vibration buffer can reduce the vibration between the first support frame and the first lifting rod when the first support frame vibrates along with the aluminum tube. The third vibration buffer can reduce the vibration between the second support frame and the second lifting rod when the second support frame vibrates along with the aluminum tube, thereby extending the service life of the device by reducing the friction between the equipment.

[0027] Optionally, a liquid surface cleaning assembly is also provided above the cleaning tank, and the liquid surface cleaning assembly includes a limit member installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank, a scraper slidably arranged on the limit member, and a driving screw for driving the scraper to move, the limit member is arranged along the extension direction of one of the inner walls of the cleaning tank, and the driving screw is arranged parallel to the limit member.

[0028] By adopting this technical solution, the scraper can move along the direction of the limiter under the drive of the driving screw. When the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly are raised, the scraper moves to one edge of the inner wall of the cleaning tank. When the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly are lowered, the scraper moves to the other edge of the inner wall of the cleaning tank. In this way, when the aluminum tube is immersed in the cleaning liquid, the stains will float upward on the surface of the cleaning liquid. After the aluminum tube is cleaned, when the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly move upward, the scraper moves from one direction of the inner wall of the cleaning tank to another direction of the inner wall of the cleaning tank. When the aluminum tube floats out of the cleaning, the scraper has collected the stains floating on the surface of the cleaning liquid to one side, reducing the stains attached to the surface of the aluminum tube when it floats out of the cleaning liquid, and further improving the cleaning effect.

[0029] Optionally, a water suction pipe is further provided at one end of the scraper close to the cleaning liquid, a water inlet is provided on the water suction pipe, and the water suction pipe is connected to the water inlet of the circulation pump through a hose.

[0030] By adopting this technical solution, during the movement of the scraper, the water suction pipe arranged under the scraper is connected to the circulation pump. When the circulation pump is working, the surface cleaning liquid and the stains floating on the surface cleaning liquid can be sucked into the circulation pump from the water inlet, and then flow from the circulation pump into the filter for filtration and then flow back to the cleaning tank. In this way, the stains floating on the surface of the cleaning liquid can be sucked into the filter together with the cleaning liquid through the water suction pipe for filtration, further reducing the stains floating on the surface of the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0031] Optionally, the liquid surface cleaning assembly also includes a diaphragm and a diaphragm roller, the diaphragm roller is rotatably set on the inner wall of the cleaning tank, the diaphragm roller is rotatably set on the side wall of the cleaning tank parallel to the limit member, one end of the diaphragm is wound around the diaphragm roller, and the other end is connected to the scraper.

[0032] By adopting this technical solution, a diaphragm is arranged on the scraper so that when the scraper moves away from the diaphragm roller, the diaphragm can cover the surface of the cleaning liquid, thereby reducing the splashing of the cleaning liquid from the cleaning tank due to the cavitation effect of the ultrasonic wave in the cleaning liquid and the vibration generated by the vibration component during the cleaning process of the aluminum tube in the cleaning tank, thereby improving safety during use.

[0033] Optionally, the first lifting assembly further comprises a plurality of driving wheels mounted on the top of the first supporting frame, a driving member mounted on the first supporting frame, and a transmission member mounted on the driving member, wherein the plurality of driving wheels and the driving member are connected via the transmission member;

[0034] The second lifting assembly further includes a plurality of driven wheels mounted on the second support frame;

[0035] The axial direction of the driving wheel and the axial direction of the driven wheel are both parallel to the axial direction of the aluminum tube.

[0036] By adopting this technical solution, when the aluminum tube is placed on the first support frame and the second support frame, the aluminum tube is supported on the driving wheel of the first support frame and the driven wheel of the second support frame, and the motor can drive the driving wheel to rotate through the transmission member. Since the axial direction of the aluminum tube is parallel to the axial direction of the driving wheel, that is, the outer peripheral surface of the aluminum tube is tangent to the outer peripheral surface of the driving wheel, the aluminum tube supported on the driving wheel will rotate with the driving wheel, and the driven wheel will support the aluminum tube and rotate with the aluminum tube. When the aluminum tube is cleaned in the cleaning liquid, the driving wheel will drive the aluminum tube to rotate a certain angle at regular intervals, so that the stains accumulated at the bottom of the aluminum tube and attached to the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube will move relative to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, and the aluminum tube covered with stains will be exposed to the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cavitation effect on this position, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the aluminum tube.

[0037] Optionally, a collecting bin may be detachably installed inside the cleaning tank, and the collecting bin may be arranged on a side of the second lifting assembly away from the first lifting assembly. When the circulation assembly is working, the height of the cleaning tank is lower than the height of the second support frame.

[0038] By adopting this technical solution, the collection bin is set on the side of the second lifting assembly away from the first lifting assembly. Since the height of the first lifting assembly is greater than the height of the second lifting assembly when the circulation assembly is working, when the aluminum tube is supported on the first lifting assembly and the second lifting assembly, the lower side of the aluminum tube is the side of the second lifting assembly. When the stains with higher density in the aluminum tube slide down from the aluminum tube, they will slide down from the end of the aluminum tube close to the second lifting assembly and then fall into the collection bin. In this way, the collection bin can collect the stains with higher density in the aluminum tube, reduce the stains that sink to the bottom of the cleaning tank, and make it more convenient to clean the cleaning tank.

[0039] In summary, the present invention includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0040] In this solution, when the cleaning liquid flows and circulates from the inside of the aluminum tube, the cleaning liquid will bring out the stains that have fallen off from the inside of the aluminum tube and reduce the stains attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tube. On the one hand, it can improve the cleaning effect of the aluminum tube. On the other hand, it can reduce the stains remaining inside the aluminum tube when the aluminum tube is removed for cleaning, thereby simplifying the subsequent operation of flushing the aluminum tube.

[0041] By setting the height of the first lifting assembly to be greater than the height of the second lifting assembly, when the cleaning liquid circulates in the aluminum tube, the end of the aluminum tube where water flows out is higher than the end where water flows in, thereby reducing the friction between the stains floating upward in the cleaning liquid and the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube, thereby making it easier for the stains floating upward to be discharged from the aluminum tube.

[0042] By setting a vibration generator to drive the aluminum tube to vibrate together, on the one hand, a shear force can be formed between the inner wall of the aluminum tube and the stains attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, and the stains are more easily separated from the inner wall of the aluminum tube under the action of the shear force, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency; on the other hand, the stains deposited on the bottom of the inner wall of the aluminum tube can slide to the lower end of the aluminum tube under the action of vibration, thereby being better discharged from the aluminum tube, further reducing the stains remaining inside the aluminum tube.

[0043] A liquid surface cleaning component is provided to scrape and filter the stains floating on the surface of the cleaning liquid when the aluminum tube floats out of the cleaning liquid, thereby reducing the stains attached to the surface of the aluminum tube when it floats out of the cleaning liquid and further improving the cleaning effect.

[0044] A driving wheel is arranged on the lifting mechanism. The driving wheel drives the aluminum tube to rotate a certain angle at regular intervals, so that the stains accumulated on the bottom of the aluminum tube and attached to the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube move relative to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, exposing the aluminum tube covered with the stains to the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cavitation effect on this position, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the aluminum tube.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0054] The following combination Figures 1 to 8 The present invention is described in further detail.

[0055] On the basis of the existing ultrasonic cleaning device, a circulation tank can be set in the ultrasonic cleaning tank, and a plurality of through holes for the circulation of cleaning liquid can be opened on the side walls adjacent to the cleaning tank and the circulation tank, so that the cleaning liquid can flow between the cleaning tank and the circulation tank. This technical solution can also make the cleaning liquid flow inside the aluminum tube, but under this solution, the cleaning liquid will flow in the direction of the through holes as a whole, resulting in slow flow of the cleaning liquid inside the aluminum tube, making it difficult to remove the stains inside the aluminum tube, especially when the stains inside the aluminum tube are uneven, the stains that have fallen off are easily blocked in the potholes inside the aluminum tube, resulting in the stains being difficult to be removed by the slowly flowing cleaning liquid in the aluminum tube, or a hose can be directly used to connect a water pump at one end of the aluminum tube to enhance the water flow inside the aluminum tube to remove the residual stains inside the aluminum tube, but this solution has great limitations. When the diameters of the aluminum tubes are different, or when the position of the aluminum tube deviates greatly from the position of the connecting hose, it is difficult to quickly and directly connect the aluminum tube to the hose, affecting the cleaning efficiency.

The control component 32 controls the cleaning liquid at the set temperature, and the ultrasonic component 31 starts to work and cleans the aluminum tube. During the operation of the ultrasonic component 31, the circulation component 33 drives the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 1 to start circulation, and the vibration component 34 drives the aluminum tube to start vibrating on the lifting mechanism 2. When the cleaning liquid circulates, the stains that have fallen off from the inside of the aluminum tube can be brought out, and the vibration component 34 can accelerate the falling of the stains and promote the fallen stains deposited at the bottom of the aluminum tube to move to the lower end of the aluminum tube.

In order to better drive the flow of cleaning liquid inside the aluminum tube, the height of the water absorption plate 333 corresponds to the height position where the first lifting component 21 descends to the lowest point, and a plurality of water absorption holes 334 are evenly distributed on the other side of the water absorption plate 333. The water absorption holes 334 are internally connected, and the plurality of connected water absorption holes 334 are connected to the water inlet 441 of the water absorption pump through the circulation pipe 331.

[0061] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5In order to filter impurities and stains in the cleaning liquid, a filter 5 is installed inside the cleaning tank 1. The filter 5 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1. The water inlet 441 of the filter 5 is connected to the water outlet of the circulation pump 332, and the water outlet of the filter 5 is connected to the inside of the cleaning tank 1. When the lifting mechanism 2 drives the aluminum tube to be immersed in the cleaning liquid, when the ultrasonic component 31 and the temperature control component 32 are working, the circulating pump 332 is started, and the cleaning liquid flows from one end of the second lifting component 22 to one end of the first lifting component 21. When the first lifting component 21 and the second lifting component 22 drive the aluminum tube to be immersed in the cleaning liquid, the cavitation effect generated by the ultrasonic wave will clean the stains attached to the aluminum tube, and the fallen stains will enter the filter 5 for filtration along with the flow of the cleaning liquid. Since the height of the water absorption plate 333 corresponds to the height of the first lifting component 21, and the height of the first lifting component 21 is greater than the height of the first lifting component 21 at this time, the cleaning liquid will flow through the inside of the aluminum tube from the end of the aluminum tube close to the second lifting component 22 to the end of the aluminum tube close to the first lifting component 21, and the cleaning liquid will bring the stains inside the aluminum tube out of the aluminum tube, thereby reducing the residual stains inside the aluminum tube.

[0062] Reference Figures 4 to 6The vibration assembly 34 includes a vibration generator 341, a telescopic member 342 installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1, a first rotating member 344 installed on the telescopic member 342, a clamping member 343 installed on the first rotating member 344 and a first vibration buffer 345 for shock absorption. The telescopic member 342 is a cylinder fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1, the first rotating member 344 is an ear plate fixedly set on the movable rod of the cylinder, and the clamping member 343 is rotatably connected to the ear plate through a rotating shaft. In this embodiment, the vibration generator 341 is installed on the water absorption plate 333. Specifically, the vibration generator 341 is installed on the side of the water absorption plate 333 away from the water absorption hole 334, the first vibration buffer 345 is installed on the side of the vibration generator 341 away from the water absorption plate 333, the second rotating member 335 is installed on the other side of the first vibration buffer 345, and the first vibration buffer 345 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1 through the second rotating member 335. When the vibration component 34 is working, the telescopic member 342 extends to push the clamping member 343 against one end of the aluminum tube, and the telescopic member 342 continues to extend to clamp the aluminum tube between the clamping member 343 and the water absorption plate 333. Since the clamping member 343 is rotatably connected to the telescopic member 342 through the first rotating member 344, and the water absorption plate 333 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1 through the second rotating member 335, during the clamping process, the aluminum tube will make the clamping member 343 and the water absorption plate 333 face the end face of the aluminum tube under the action of the clamping force. When the vibration generator 341 is working, the stains deposited on the bottom of the inner wall of the aluminum tube will slide to the lower end of the aluminum tube under the action of vibration, thereby better discharging the aluminum tube. The first vibration buffer 345, the second vibration buffer 212 and the third vibration buffer 222 can play a buffering role when the vibration generator 341 drives the aluminum tube to vibrate, thereby reducing the friction vibration between the aluminum tube and the contact parts during vibration. In other embodiments, the vibration generator 341 may also be installed on the clamping member 343 , and the first vibration buffer 345 is a rubber pad disposed on the clamping member 343 , and the vibration generator 341 is installed on the rubber pad.

The collecting bin 6 is provided between the second lifting assembly 22 and the telescopic member 342. The stains deposited in the aluminum tube will be collected in the collecting bin 6 when they slide out from the lower end of the aluminum tube, so as to facilitate the subsequent cleaning of the interior of the cleaning tank 1.

In this embodiment, the limit member 41 is a cylindrical limit rod arranged along the width direction of the cleaning tank 1 (in other embodiments, the limit member 41 can also be arranged along the length direction of the cleaning tank 1), the axial direction of the driving screw 42 is parallel to the axial direction of the limit rod on the same horizontal plane, the scraper 43 is a metal plate vertically slidably arranged on the limit rod, and the scraper 43 is provided with a plurality of diaphragm rollers 46, ... There are two circular holes, one of which is used for limiting with the stopper 41, and the other is installed with a screw nut which is set in cooperation with the driving screw 42. In order to enable the scraper 43 to better scrape the stains on the surface of the cleaning liquid, a water suction pipe 44 is arranged on the end face of the scraper 43 close to the cleaning liquid, and a water inlet 441 is arranged on the water suction pipe 44. One end of the water suction pipe 44 is connected to the water inlet 441 of the circulation pump 332 through a hose. The diaphragm roller 46 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the cleaning tank 1 perpendicular to the stopper 41 through a rotating shaft. One end of the diaphragm 45 is wound around the diaphragm roller 46, and the other end is connected to the upper surface of the scraper 43. When the driving screw 42 rotates, it can drive the scraper 43 to move on the surface of the cleaning liquid along the direction of the stopper 41. During the movement of the scraper 43, the water suction pipe 44 is connected to the circulation pump 332, and the surface cleaning liquid will be sucked into the filter 5 by the circulation pump 332 through the water inlet 441.

[0065] The implementation principle of an ultrasonic cleaning device for cleaning the surface of an aluminum tube according to an embodiment of the present invention is as follows: before use, the upgrading mechanism is raised, and cleaning liquid is added to the cleaning tank 1. The temperature of the cleaning liquid is controlled by the temperature control component 32 to be maintained at about 15° below the temperature of the cleaning liquid. Then, the aluminum tube is placed on the first lifting component 21 and the second lifting component 22. The first lifting component 21 and the second lifting component 22 fall down to immerse the aluminum tube in the cleaning liquid. After the first lifting component 21 and the second lifting component 22 fall down, one end of the aluminum tube close to the water absorption plate 333 is higher than the other end. Then, the telescopic member 342 extends out to clamp the aluminum tube between the clamping member 343 and the water absorption plate 333. After the aluminum tube is fixed, the driving screw 42 controls the scraper 43 to move to the side away from the diaphragm roller 46 to cover the cleaning tank 1. Then, the ultrasonic component 31, the vibration component 34 and the circulation component 33 start. Under the action of the ultrasonic component 31 and the vibration component 34, the stains attached to the aluminum tube begin to fall off. As the circulation component 33 works, the cleaning liquid begins to move in the direction of the water absorption plate 333. The cleaning liquid in the aluminum tube flows. Since the water absorption plate 333 is clamped at one end of the aluminum tube, the suction force on the cleaning liquid inside the aluminum tube is greater and the flow rate is faster. The floating stains inside the aluminum tube flow through the water absorption hole 334 and the circulation pump 332 into the filter 5. The deposited stains inside the aluminum tube slide toward the lower end of the aluminum tube under the action of vibration and slide into the collection bin 6. After cleaning for one minute, the telescopic member 342 releases the clamping of the aluminum tube. The driving member 216 on the first lifting assembly 21 controls the aluminum tube to rotate 180 degrees, and then the telescopic member 342 is retracted. Clamp the aluminum tube, change the angle to clean the aluminum tube, after cleaning is completed, drive the screw rod 42 to control the scraper 43 to move in the direction close to the diaphragm roller 46, and at the same time, the diaphragm roller 46 rotates under the drive of the motor to recycle the diaphragm 45. During the movement of the scraper 43, the circulation pump 332 pumps the surface cleaning liquid to the filter 5 through the suction pipe 44 and the water inlet 441 to filter the surface cleaning liquid, and then the vibration component 34 and the circulation component 33 stop working, and the aluminum tube floats out of the cleaning liquid under the control of the lifting mechanism 2. In this way, when the aluminum tube is cleaned and floats out of the cleaning liquid, the floating stains in the cleaning liquid attached to the inside and outer wall of the aluminum tube can be reduced, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0066] In summary, the present invention can drive the cleaning liquid to circulate inside the aluminum tube by setting the circulation component 33, and remove the stains that fall off from the inside of the aluminum tube through the cleaning liquid, thereby reducing the stains attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tube; when cleaning the aluminum tube, by setting the height of the first lifting component 21 to be greater than the height of the second lifting component 22, the friction between the stains floating upward in the cleaning liquid and the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube can be reduced, so that the stains floating upward can be more easily discharged from the aluminum tube; the vibration component 34 can be set to form a shear force between the inner wall of the aluminum tube and the stains attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, and the stains are more likely to separate from the inner wall of the aluminum tube under the action of the shear force, thereby improving the cleaning effect and making the stains deposited on the bottom of the inner wall of the aluminum tube be removed under the action of vibration. It will slide toward the lower end of the aluminum tube, thereby better discharging the aluminum tube and further reducing the stains remaining inside the aluminum tube; by arranging a driving wheel 214 that can drive the aluminum tube to rotate on the lifting mechanism 2, the driving wheel 214 can drive the aluminum tube to rotate a certain angle every once in a while, so that the stains accumulated at the bottom of the aluminum tube and attached to the top of the inner wall of the aluminum tube move relative to the inner wall of the aluminum tube, and the aluminum tube covered with the stains is exposed to the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cavitation effect on this position, and then improving the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the aluminum tube; a liquid surface cleaning component 4 is set, and when the aluminum tube floats out of the cleaning, the stains floating on the surface of the cleaning liquid are scraped and filtered, thereby reducing the stains attached to the surface of the aluminum tube when it floats out of the cleaning liquid, and further improving the cleaning effect.

Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
