[0002] The upper mold in aerospace sheet metal lamination is a component located on the bottom surface of the upper mold above the sheet metal to be processed in the lamination process. It usually cooperates with the lower mold to form a lamination cavity. By applying pressure, the aerospace sheet metal is shaped into a specific shape. After use, the upper mold is prone to leaving metal shavings, oil stains, oxides, and mold release agents on its surface. If it is not cleaned in time, it can lead to problems such as air bubbles, debonding, surface scratches, or dimensional deviations during sheet metal lamination, affecting the key performance of aerospace components such as strength and flatness.

[0003] Cleaning the upper mold after use ensures that the surface precision and cleanliness of the bottom surface of the upper mold meet the stringent standards of the aerospace industry. However, traditional upper mold cleaning often requires disassembly and post-processing, which is complicated, inefficient, and manual cleaning requires frequent replacement of spraying, brushing, wiping and other tools, resulting in intermittent operation and long processing time.

The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 6In this embodiment of the utility model, a cleaning device for an upper mold used for pressing aerospace sheet metal includes: a support frame 1, a main frame that carries all functional components and ensures structural stability; symmetrical rotating shafts 2 are connected to the upper ends of both sides inside the support frame 1, which serve to support and transmit power; and a triangular frame 3 is fixedly connected between the rotating shafts 2, which has a triangular prism structure with three mechanisms on each of the three sides, and performs cleaning operations by rotation.

[0024] A spraying mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the triangular frame 3, a cleaning brush mechanism 5 is provided on the other side of the triangular frame 3, a wiping mechanism 6 is provided on the other side of the triangular frame 3, and a motor compartment 7 is provided on the upper outer side of the support frame 1. The motor compartment 7 integrates a motor and gear transmission components, which are connected to the center end of one of the sets of rotating shafts 2.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 A rod sleeve 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the bottom of the support frame 1. A threaded support rod 9 is threadedly connected inside the rod sleeve 8. A universal roller 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded support rod 9.

[0026] A connecting frame 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the front of the support frame 1, and an operating handle 12 is fixedly connected to the middle of the front of the connecting frame 11. The height is adjusted by the threaded support rod 9 so that the universal roller 10 contacts the lower mold or the ground. Pushing the operating handle 12 can flexibly move the device under the upper mold to clean its bottom surface. In this way, the cleaning operation can be carried out without disassembling the upper mold.

[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The spraying mechanism 4 includes a cleaning agent elongated box 41 and a box cover 42. The cleaning agent elongated box 41 is fixedly connected to one side of the triangular frame 3, and the box cover 42 is threadedly connected to the feed port of the cleaning agent elongated box 41.

[0028] A small liquid pump 43 and a nozzle 44 are fixedly connected to one end of the inside of the long cleaning agent box 41. The nozzle 44 is fixedly connected to the outlet of the small liquid pump 43. When the box cover 42 is unscrewed, cleaning liquid is injected into the long cleaning agent box 41. After the small liquid pump 43 is powered on, the liquid is sprayed out from the nozzle 44. The cleaning liquid is evenly sprayed on the bottom surface of the upper mold to soften oil stains or oxide scale.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The cleaning brush mechanism 5 includes a fixing box 51 and a bolt 52. The fixing box 51 is fixedly connected to the other side of the triangular frame 3, and the bolt 52 is located on the outside of the fixing box 51.

[0030] Insert plate 53 and cleaning brush 54 are provided. Insert plate 53 is movably inserted into the inside of fixed box 51. Cleaning brush 54 is fixedly connected to the surface of insert plate 53. The other end of bolt 52 passes through one side of fixed box 51 and is threadedly connected to the other side of fixed box 51. Cleaning brush 54 is fixed to fixed box 51 by insert plate 53 and bolt 52, which facilitates the replacement of cleaning brush 54. When in use, cleaning brush 54 is made to fit against the bottom surface of upper mold. When the triangular frame 3 drives the cleaning brush mechanism 5 to rotate, cleaning brush 54 mechanically rubs the bottom surface of upper mold after spraying liquid to remove stubborn impurities.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The wiping mechanism 6 includes a fixed box 61 and a bolt 62. The fixed box 61 is fixedly connected to the other side of the triangular frame 3, and the bolt 62 is located on the outside of the fixed box 61.

[0032] Insert plate 63 and long sponge block 64 are inserted into the fixed box 61. Insert plate 63 is movably inserted into the fixed box 61. Long sponge block 64 is fixedly connected to the surface of insert plate 63. The other end of bolt 62 passes through one side of fixed box 61 and is threaded to the other side of fixed box 61. Long sponge block 64 is pre-soaked with a small amount of cleaning solution or deionized water and fixed to fixed box 61 by insert plate 63 and bolt 62. This makes it easy to replace long sponge block 64. When triangular frame 3 switches to the wiping mechanism 6 station, long sponge block 64 rotates with the device to absorb the dirt and liquid remaining on the bottom surface of the upper mold, completing the cleaning finishing process.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the height is adjusted by the threaded support rod 9 so that the universal roller 10 contacts the lower mold or the ground. Pushing the operating handle rod 12 allows the device to be flexibly moved below the upper mold to clean its bottom surface. In this way, cleaning can be performed without disassembling the upper mold. The motor compartment 7 drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate, which in turn drives the triangular frame 3 to rotate around the axis. The three sides of the triangular frame 3 correspond to the spraying mechanism 4, the cleaning brush mechanism 5, and the wiping mechanism 6, respectively. When rotating, the bottom surface of the upper mold can be cleaned in a "spraying → brushing → wiping" assembly line operation without the need for manual tool switching. The operation is highly efficient and forms a dynamic cleaning chain, eliminating the time loss of traditional manual tool switching.

[0034] Unscrew the lid 42 and inject cleaning liquid into the long box 41 of the cleaning agent. After the small liquid pump 43 is powered on, the liquid is sprayed out from the nozzle 44. The cleaning liquid is evenly sprayed on the bottom surface of the upper mold to soften the oil or oxide scale.

[0035] The cleaning brush 54 is fixed to the fixing box 51 by the insert plate 53 and the bolt 52, which makes it easy to replace the cleaning brush 54. When in use, the cleaning brush 54 is made to fit against the bottom surface of the upper mold. When the triangular frame 3 drives the cleaning brush mechanism 5 to rotate, the cleaning brush 54 mechanically rubs the bottom surface of the upper mold after spraying liquid to remove stubborn impurities.

[0036] The long sponge block 64 is pre-soaked with a small amount of cleaning solution or deionized water and fixed to the fixing box 61 by the insert plate 63 and bolt 62, which makes it easy to replace the long sponge block 64. When the triangular frame 3 switches to the wiping mechanism 6, the long sponge block 64 rotates with the device to absorb the dirt and liquid remaining on the bottom surface of the upper mold, completing the cleaning finishing process. In this way, spraying, brushing and wiping are integrated into the same rotating structure, reducing the equipment footprint and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
