Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hardware tool technology, specifically to a rust removal and polishing tool. Background Technology

[0002] Rust removal of metals is divided into physical rust removal, chemical rust removal, and electrochemical rust removal. Physical rust removal currently on the market mainly uses the circular grinding discs and wire wheels (with a large amount of steel wire) of angle grinders to grind the metal surface and remove the rust. However, the rust removal efficiency is low and it cannot adapt to metals of different shapes, especially the corners of the metal. At the same time, angle grinders are very dangerous to use, and a large number of people are injured by angle grinders every year.

[0003] In construction sites, commercial projects, and home renovations, it is often necessary to remove walls, roughen reinforced concrete, roughen walls before tiling, and remove rust from steel bars.

[0004] Metal surface hardening typically involves using shot peening machines to harden the metal surface, causing plastic deformation and forming a reinforced layer of a certain thickness. Due to the compressive stress on the surface of the part, this layer can offset some of the stress when the part is under load, thus improving its fatigue strength. However, most machine shops do not have shot peening machines, and these machines are expensive, bulky, and cause environmental pollution. Therefore, there is a need for a tool that can remove rust from metal parts of different shapes, harden the metal surface during rust removal, and is inexpensive, compact, and portable.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0030] like Figures 1-15As shown, this embodiment provides a rust removal and polishing tool, including a cylinder 1 and a brush assembly. The cylinder 1 has a hollow circular inner cavity 12 in the middle. One end of the cylinder 1 has a positioning inner hole 11 facing inward. The inner diameter of the positioning inner hole 11 is smaller than the inner diameter of the inner cavity 12. The brush end 101 of the brush assembly enters from the cylinder 1 and passes through the positioning inner hole 11. The flat end 102 of the brush assembly is located inside the inner cavity 12 of the cylinder 1. A large spring 7 is installed between the flat end 102 of the brush assembly and the positioning inner hole 11. The positioning inner hole 11 prevents the brush assembly from coming out of the positioning inner hole 11. The positioning inner hole 11 also facilitates fixing one end of the large spring 7. The brush assembly can perform linear reciprocating motion and rotational motion along the center line of the cylinder 1.

[0031] A drill shank 3 is also installed inside the inner cavity 12. A drill shank limiting component is installed at the other end of the positioning inner hole 11 in the inner cavity 12. The drill shank limiting component has an inner hole in the middle. The shank end 31 of the drill shank 3 extends to the outside through the inner hole of the drill shank limiting component. A frustum 111 is provided on the other side of the shank end 31 of the drill shank 3. A small spring 8 is installed between the frustum 111 of the drill shank 3 and the drill shank limiting component. The flat end 102 of the brush nail component and the frustum 111 of the drill shank 3 are in contact with each other under the action of the large spring 7 and the small spring 8, respectively. The drill shank 3 can make linear and rotational movements in the middle inner hole of the drill shank limiting component.

[0032] The shank end 31 of the drill shank 3 is connected to a power device. The power device can be an electric hammer, electric drill, electric impact drill, electric pick, or other power tools. It can also be a pneumatic tool that uses air as its power source, such as a pneumatic hammer or pneumatic drill. Any device that can drive the drill shank 3 to rotate or a device that can both impact and rotate, like an electric impact drill, is acceptable.

[0033] The shank 3 can be provided with any of the following hardware tool connection methods on the shank end 31: four-slot, five-slot, square slot, round slot, etc., to facilitate compatibility and quick connection with equipment such as electric drills.

[0034] Because the brush tip 101 of the brush assembly is constantly rubbed and impacted with the workpiece, the brush tip 101 is constantly worn down. Once it is worn too short, the entire brush assembly must be replaced. To save costs, preferably, the brush assembly consists of a brush tip 6 and a brush tip seat 9. The brush tip seat 9 is provided with a first through hole 91. One end of the brush tip 6 is provided with a circular boss-shaped brush tip head 61. The other end of the brush tip 6 extends through the first through hole 91 to the outside of the cylinder 1. The diameter of the brush tip head 61 is greater than the diameter of the brush tip body 6, and the diameter of the brush tip head 61 is greater than the inner diameter of the first through hole 91. In this way, when the brush tip 6 is worn down, only the brush tip 6 needs to be replaced. In addition, this needle-shaped brush tip 6 can be directly cut from bar stock and then hot-sinked and cold-forged to produce the brush tip head 61, which has the advantages of low cost and fast processing speed.

[0035] Since the efficiency of a single brush nail 6 is too low, preferably, the number of brush nails 6 is ≥2, and the number of first through holes 91 on the brush nail seat 9 is ≥2. The multiple brush nails 6 and the multiple first through holes 91 cooperate with each other to give the brush nail assembly multiple working surfaces 63. In this way, the present invention has multiple brush nails 6, and different numbers of brush nails 6 can be set to adapt to different specifications of the present invention equipment.

[0036] Because the brush head 61 and the contact plate 32 of the drill shank 3 will frequently rub and impact each other during the operation of this device, in order to improve the service life of the brush head 61 and make its service life longer than that of the working surface 63 of the brush head 6, preferably, the first through hole 91 is provided with a countersunk hole 92 that matches the size of the brush head 61 at the end near the brush head 61. In this way, the contact plate 32 of the drill shank 3 mainly contacts and rubs against the brush head seat 9.

[0037] To enable the brush nail 6 to have a self-centering function during installation and operation, preferably, a first chamfer 62 is provided between the brush nail head 61 and the brush nail 6 body, and a second chamfer 93 is provided at the countersunk hole 92 of the first through hole 91. The first chamfer 62 and the second chamfer 93 match each other. In this way, the second chamfer 93 facilitates the installation of the brush nail 6, and when the brush nail 6 is fully installed, the matching of the second chamfer 93 and the first chamfer 62 ensures that the brush nail 6 maintains a certain degree of concentricity.

[0038] To facilitate the installation of the shank limiting component, this utility model provides a specific implementation method. Preferably, the drill shank limiting component consists of a drill shank positioning sleeve 4 and an elastic retaining ring 5. The drill shank positioning sleeve 4 has a central hole 41 in the middle, and the central hole 41 is clearance-fitted with the drill shank body 3. The elastic retaining ring 5 is preferably a hole-type elastic retaining ring, preferably made of 65Mn material with a blackening treatment or 304 stainless steel.

[0039] To facilitate better installation and fixation of the small spring 8, preferably, the drill shank positioning sleeve 4 has a spring mounting boss 42 near the small spring 8, and the drill shank 3 has a circular contact plate 32 near the brush assembly. The contact plate 32 has a positioning recess 321 near the brush assembly, and the flat end 102 of the brush assembly is located within the positioning recess 321. Furthermore, a large arc 33 is provided between the contact plate 32 near the shank end 31 and the drill shank 3 body, which also facilitates self-centering of the small spring 8 during installation and use.

[0040] Because the drill shank 3 and brush assembly rotate at high speed and rub against each other during operation, they will inevitably accumulate heat over time. To improve the lifespan of the drill shank 3 and brush assembly, preferably, the cylinder 1 is provided with a ventilation port 13. A handle 2 is installed on the cylinder 1 at a position perpendicular to the center line of the inner cavity 12. The handle 2 and the cylinder 1 can be connected by threads. The handle 2 can be made of plastic, such as ABS plastic. Of course, the thread at the connection between the handle 2 and the cylinder 1 is preferably made of metal, such as a standard hexagonal bolt, which is integrally molded with the handle 2 through plastic injection molding. During operation, air enters and exits through the ventilation port 13, thereby carrying away the heat accumulated in the inner cavity 12, improving the service life of the equipment and extending the maximum continuous working time. At the same time, the handle 2 allows the operator to hold the electric drill or impact drill with one hand and the handle 2 with the other, better controlling the grinding direction and position of the equipment.

[0041] The ventilation opening 13 can be in the shape of a round hole, a long hole, a square hole, etc. In addition, the cylinder 1 can be made into a blank by casting, cold heading, or hot heading and then processed. This can greatly reduce the raw materials and processing allowance, thereby reducing the cost of mass production. Its ventilation opening and shape can be formed directly in the blank.

[0042] To improve the lifespan of the drill shank 3, drill shank positioning sleeve 4, and brush pin 6, preferably, all three components are made of high-strength, high-wear-resistant materials, specifically 40Cr steel. These components can also undergo heat treatment, such as quenching, tempering, or even nitriding, to enhance their strength, toughness, and wear resistance. 40Cr steel offers advantages such as low cost, high strength, mature heat treatment processes, and the ability to undergo nitriding. Of course, other materials such as 65Mn and 45# steel can also be used.

[0043] Preferably, the drill shank 3, drill shank positioning sleeve 4, and brush nail 6 are heat-treated to improve their strength and hardness.

[0044] Current physical rust removal methods on the market, as described in the background section, have various drawbacks. The applicant has pioneered a new method for rust removal, metal surface hardening, cement roughening, and wall plaster removal, which eliminates the significant dangers associated with angle grinders. Figures 1-15 As shown, this utility model provides a method for removing rust, strengthening surface hardness, roughening, and scraping wall plaster using a brush nail, the specific steps of which are as follows:

[0045] 1. The drill shank 3 is connected to the shank end 31 via a power device, and the drill shank 3 and the brush nail assembly are in contact with each other under the action of the large spring 7 and the small spring 8.

[0046] 2. Start the power unit to drive the drill shank 3 to rotate or move it back and forth while rotating it;

[0047] 3. When the drill shank 3 rotates, it will drive the brush nail assembly to rotate through friction.

[0048] 4. Place a rust remover on the surface of the object to be treated, and then the brush tip 101 of the brush assembly contacts the surface of the object to be treated. The brush tip 101 of the brush assembly will continuously rub against the surface of the object to be treated.

[0049] 5. Because the friction between the brush tip 101 and the surface of the object to be treated is not uniform, the brush tip 101 of the brush assembly will temporarily leave the surface of the object to be treated.

[0050] 6. The brush tip 101 of the brush assembly re-contacts the surface of the object to be treated;

[0051] 7. Repeat steps 4 to 6 until the rust on the surface of the object to be treated is removed, the hardness of the metal surface is strengthened, and the cement is roughened or the wall plaster is scraped off.

[0052] Since the drill shank 3 is not fixed to the brush nail 6 and brush nail seat 9, but is driven to rotate by friction, even if the brush nail 6 is stuck, it will not cause the drill shank 3 to be stuck and overloaded. This makes it less likely to cause hand injuries. It is similar to the transmission method of a car clutch to prevent overload of motors and other power equipment.

[0053] The rotation of the brush nail 6 removes rust from metal surfaces, roughens cement floors, and scrapes off wall plaster. At the same time, the intermittent impact and rotation of the brush nail 6 can also increase the hardness of metal surfaces.

[0054] This embodiment should not be regarded as a limitation of the utility model, but any improvement made based on the spirit of the utility model should be within the protection scope of the utility model.
