Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of test cleaning equipment, specifically a cement mortar test mold cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of performance testing of cement and concrete-related materials, cement mortar molds are indispensable core tools for preparing standard cement mortar specimens. The cleanliness of their inner walls and the smoothness of their surfaces directly affect the molding quality of the specimens and the accuracy of the test data. According to the relevant specifications such as the national standard "Test Method for Cement Mortar Strength (ISO Method)," cement mortar molds must be thoroughly cleaned promptly after each use to remove residual cement mortar lumps and attachments. Otherwise, the residual mortar will harden and solidify on the inner wall of the mold, which will not only lead to defects such as missing corners and pitting during subsequent specimen molding, affecting the reliability of the test results, but may also cause permanent damage to the mold and shorten its service life.
[0003] Currently, the industry mainly relies on traditional manual cleaning methods for cleaning cement mortar molds. The process typically involves workers using hand brushes, steel wool, and other tools, combined with water or detergent, to repeatedly scrub the inner walls of the molds. This cleaning method has several drawbacks: Firstly, it is extremely inefficient. For molds used in batches, manual cleaning requires a significant amount of manpower and time, making it difficult to meet the needs of efficient laboratory testing. Secondly, it is difficult to guarantee the cleanliness level. Corners and grooves inside the molds are prone to retaining mortar residue due to incomplete scrubbing. Furthermore, the pressure and angle of manual cleaning are inconsistent, potentially leading to over-cleaning in some areas causing mold wear, or under-cleaning in others leaving potential problems.
[0004] To improve cleaning efficiency, some laboratories have attempted to use simple spray cleaning equipment. However, such equipment can only perform a preliminary rinse on the surface of the mold, and its effect on removing cement mortar residue that has already partially hardened is limited. A second manual scrubbing is still required, failing to fundamentally solve the cleaning problem. Furthermore, after cleaning, the molds are usually dried by air drying or simple wiping, which is slow and leaves moisture easily remaining on the inner walls. Improper storage can also lead to corrosion, further affecting the mold's performance and the quality of the prepared specimens. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a cement mortar mold cleaning device, which solves the technical problems of low cleaning efficiency, poor cleanliness, slow drying and easy damage to the mold in traditional cement mortar mold cleaning, and realizes efficient and thorough cleaning and rapid drying of the mold, so as to ensure the conduct of testing and the accuracy of data.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a cement mortar mold cleaning device, including a box, wherein a cleaning chamber and a drying chamber are formed inside the box by partitions; The cleaning chamber is equipped with a cleaning box, the bottom of which is a mesh bottom. A water inlet pipe is provided on one side wall of the cleaning chamber, and multiple ultrasonic generators are provided on the other side wall of the cleaning chamber. The drying chamber is equipped with a mesh partition, and the outside of the box is equipped with a movable frame placement cavity adjacent to the drying chamber. The movable frame placement cavity is equipped with a movable frame that can move horizontally into the drying chamber. The movable frame is equipped with a brush roller, and the height of the movable frame is higher than the mesh partition. A hot air inlet pipe is provided on the lower part of one side wall of the drying chamber.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the top surface of the box is open, and a cover plate is connected to the box via hinges. The cover plate is provided with two sealing protrusions whose length and width dimensions are the same as the horizontal cross-sectional dimensions of the washing chamber and the drying chamber.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the cover plate is further provided with a loop, on which a traction rope is fixed. One end of the traction rope is connected to the loop, and the other end is connected and fixed to both sides of the top surface of the cleaning box.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a slot is provided on the inner wall of the drying chamber above the mesh partition. The width of the slot is the same as the width of one side of the movable frame. The movable frame is set in the slot and moves horizontally along the slot.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a light strip is provided on the inner wall of the drying chamber near the top surface; A lamp control box is provided on the inner wall of the drying chamber on one side of the lamp strip. A door control switch is provided on the top surface of the lamp control box. The door control switch enables the lamp strip to be turned on and off by cooperating with the cover plate.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, there are multiple brush rollers, which are arranged in parallel on the movable frame via multiple brush roller shafts. The ends of the multiple brush roller shafts are synchronously driven by a timing belt, and one of the brush roller shafts is driven by a motor fixed on the movable frame.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a push cylinder is fixed on the outer wall of the movable frame placement cavity, and the push rod of the push cylinder extends into the frame placement cavity and is fixedly connected to the end of the movable frame.
[0013] The cement mortar mold cleaning device provided by this utility model, by adopting the above-described structure, has the following beneficial effects: (1) The washing and drying are integrated. The box is divided into a washing chamber and a drying chamber by a partition. The mold can complete the washing and drying process in the same device, which greatly shortens the mold processing cycle and improves the overall work efficiency. There is no need to transfer the mold between different devices, which reduces the operation links and manpower input. (2) The cleaning is highly clean and causes little damage to the mold. The cleaning chamber is equipped with an ultrasonic generator and a mesh bottom cleaning box. The ultrasonic vibration can penetrate into the corners and grooves of the mold, which are difficult to reach by traditional brushing, and thoroughly remove residual adhesive residue. This avoids wear on the mold caused by uneven brushing force. At the same time, the mesh bottom design facilitates the flow of cleaning fluid and improves the cleaning effect. (3) The drying is efficient and uniform. The hot air inlet pipe in the drying chamber sends hot air in from the bottom. With the help of the mesh partition, the hot air can be evenly penetrated through the drying area, accelerating the evaporation of moisture from the mold. Compared with natural air drying, the drying time is greatly shortened. In addition, the brush roller on the movable frame can clean the surface of the mold a second time before drying, further ensuring the cleanliness of the mold. Attached Figure Description
