Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning machine technology, specifically to an ultrasonic cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] Ultrasonic waves propagate in liquids, causing the liquid and the cleaning tank to vibrate together at the ultrasonic frequency. Each vibration, including the liquid and the tank, has its own natural frequency, which is the sound wave frequency. With the continuous development of the cleaning industry, more and more industries and companies are using ultrasonic cleaning machines.
[0003] The principle of an ultrasonic cleaner is based on the high-frequency oscillation signal emitted by an ultrasonic generator. This signal is converted into high-frequency mechanical oscillation by a transducer and propagates into the cleaning solvent. The ultrasonic waves radiate forward in the cleaning fluid in alternating dense and rarefaction patterns, causing the liquid to flow and generating tens of thousands of tiny bubbles with diameters of 50-500 μm. These tiny bubbles vibrate under the influence of the acoustic field. These bubbles form and grow in the negative pressure zone where the ultrasonic waves propagate longitudinally. In the positive pressure zone, when the sound pressure reaches a certain value, the bubbles rapidly increase in size and then suddenly collapse. The collapse of the bubbles generates shock waves, creating pressures of thousands of atmospheres around them. This shock waves break down insoluble contaminants, dispersing them into the cleaning fluid. When aggregated particles are coated with oil and adhere to the surface of the part being cleaned, the oil is emulsified, and the solid particles detach, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the part. In this process, known as "cavitation," the collapse of the bubbles can create temperatures of several hundred degrees Celsius and instantaneous pressures exceeding 1000 atmospheres.
[0004] In the existing technology, conventional ultrasonic cleaning machines lack the function of collecting wastewater, requiring manual handling of the entire cleaning machine to pour out the wastewater. Furthermore, after cleaning, they cannot sterilize, disinfect, or dry the cleaned items, resulting in cleaning solution dripping randomly when items are picked up, and bacteria remaining, making them inconvenient to use.
