The other end of the fixing rod 314 is provided with a threaded hole 315, and the other end of the screw 321 is engaged with the threaded hole 315.
[0027] Specific implementation method six: such as Figure 1-9 As shown, this embodiment is a further explanation of the first specific embodiment. The cleaning device 3 also includes a threaded telescopic cylinder 33 and a collection device 34. One end of the threaded telescopic cylinder 33 is fixedly connected to the hollow end of the cylinder 311, and the other end of the threaded telescopic cylinder 33 is connected to the collection device 34 by a thread.
[0028] The collecting device 34 includes a screen 341, a connecting ring 343, two limiting rings 344, and a fixing bolt 346. Both sides of the screen 341 are provided with threaded connection ports 342, which are threadedly connected to a threaded telescopic cylinder 33. The connecting ring 343 is fixedly connected to the inside of the screen 341 by the fixing bolt 346. The cross-section of the connecting ring 343 is an arc shape convex towards the center, and two limiting rings 344 are symmetrically connected at the end of the connecting ring 343 away from the center. An annular groove 345 is left between the ends of the two limiting rings 344, and the two limiting rings 344 and the connecting ring 343 form a receiving cavity.
[0029] Specific implementation method seven: such as Figure 1-9 As shown in the figure, this embodiment describes a method of using an arc bevel gear cleaning device, the method of using the device including the following steps:
[0030] Step 1: Fix the gear 4 on the fixing device 31, and then pass the blocking device 32 through the fixing hole in the center of the gear 4 and connect it to the threaded hole 315 by thread.
[0031] Step 2: Rotate the threaded telescopic cylinder 33 to extend it, and connect it to the threaded connection port 342 on the collecting device 34 via thread;
[0032] Step 3: Fill the water tank body 11 with water;
[0033] Step 4: Start motor 2 to clean gear 4.
[0034] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When using this device, the gear 4 is fixed on the fixing device 31. During the fixing process, since the inner circular surface of the multiple sets of sliding blocks 319 arranged along the axial direction of the cylinder 311 forms a conical cavity, the gear 4 with a smaller diameter needs to be placed into the fixing device 31 first. When the gear 4 is pushed into the fixing device 31, after the outer side of the gear 4 contacts the corresponding sliding block 319, the sliding block 319 slides into the annular groove 316 and compresses the spring 317. The gear 4 is clamped by the elastic force of the spring 317. Each sliding block 319 is provided with a rubber pad at the contact position with the gear 4 for anti-slip. Then, the screw 321 and the conical block 322 on the blocking device 32 pass through the fixing hole in the center of the gear 4 and are connected to the threaded hole 315 by threads.
[0035] Then rotate the threaded telescopic cylinder 33 to extend it, and make both threaded telescopic cylinders 33 connected to the fixing device 31 connected to the threaded connection ports 342 on both sides of the collecting device 34 by thread; then fill the water tank body 11 with water.
[0036] Finally, motor 2 is started, which drives the fixed rod 314 to rotate, thereby driving the fixed device 31 to rotate. The fixed device 31 drives another fixed device 31 to rotate through the collecting device 34. When the fixed device 31 rotates, it drives the connecting rod 313 to rotate. The connecting rod 313 is designed in the shape of a fan blade. Therefore, the rotation of the connecting rod 313 causes the water in the water tank body 11 to flow from the gap between the fixed device 31 and the water tank body 11 into the fixed device 31. Since the water is constantly flowing into the fixed device 31, the water flowing into the cylinder 31 first washes the area near the connecting rod 313. The water flows onto the surface of gear 4, and then a portion of it continues to flow towards the threaded telescopic cylinder 33 through the fixed hole in the center of gear 4. During the movement towards the threaded telescopic cylinder 33, the water flows through the conical block 322. Since the conical block 322 is located between the two gears 4, some of the water flows through the conical block 322 to the space between the two gears 4 and washes the end face of gear 4. Then it moves to the side of gear 4 where the teeth are located, while the rest flows through the through hole 323 into the threaded telescopic cylinder 33. Through the connecting rod 313, it is driven to another part of the water in the cylinder 311 to wash the gear. The water flows from the end face of gear 4 to the tooth groove between the two teeth on the side of gear 4, scouring the tooth groove. Then, the water flowing out between the two adjacent gears 4 moves into the threaded telescopic cylinder 33. After flowing into the threaded telescopic cylinder 33, the water continues to flow. The water in the two threaded telescopic cylinders 33 flows towards each other into the collection device 34. Within the screen 341, the two flow directions of water counteract each other. Under the continuous counteracting action of the water within the threaded telescopic cylinders 33, the waste mixed in the water can only move towards the periphery of the threaded telescopic cylinder 33. The diameter of the screen 341 is larger than the threaded telescopic cylinder. The telescopic cylinder 33 causes debris to move into the screen 341 after being impacted by the water flow. During this movement, it is blocked by the connecting ring 343 and moves to both sides of the connecting ring 343, allowing the water flow to pass through the side screen 341. The debris is trapped inside the screen 341. The screen 341 is elastic, and as the water continues to circulate, the debris inside the screen 341 increases. The debris may clog the screen 341, causing the inflow of water to exceed the outflow of water in the cleaning device 3. Therefore, the continuous impact of the water flow causes the screen 341 to shift in the position where there is no fixing bolt 346. Figure 9 The deformation shown causes the screen 341 to bend, pushing some of the piled debris away from the inner surface of the screen 341, thereby reducing the impact on the filtration of the screen 341, reducing the number of times the screen 341 needs to be cleaned, and ensuring the cleaning efficiency of the gear 4.
