Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of salt spray chamber technology, specifically relating to a foldable salt spray chamber homogenization plate and a method for cleaning accumulated salt. Background Technology
[0002] Salt spray refers to a diffuse system composed of tiny salt-containing droplets in the atmosphere. It is one of the three-proof systems in artificial environments. Many companies need to simulate the destructive effects of marine climates on their products, thus requiring the use of homogenization plates in salt spray chambers. For example, Chinese patent application number CN202021340293.5 discloses a cleaning device for a salt spray chamber, including a humidifying water storage tank, a distilled water inlet pipe, a salt solution storage tank, a salt solution inlet pipe, a retractable water pipe, a distilled water shower, a composite salt spray chamber body, a fixing structure, a mounting plate, and a bracket. The composite salt spray chamber body is externally equipped with two brackets, which are respectively fixedly installed on the wall. The humidifying water storage tank and the salt solution storage tank are respectively installed on the brackets. The humidifying water storage tank is connected to one end of the distilled water inlet pipe.
[0003] However, the above-mentioned solution has the following shortcomings: While it allows for cleaning and rinsing of the composite salt spray chamber body using a distilled water sprayer, salt accumulates inside the chamber during use. The lack of a method to clean this accumulated salt leads to its buildup inside the chamber, making cleaning difficult. Therefore, we propose a foldable salt spray chamber homogenization plate and a method for cleaning accumulated salt to address the problems mentioned in the background section. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a foldable salt spray chamber homogenization plate and a method for cleaning accumulated salt thereon, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a foldable salt spray chamber homogenization plate, comprising a salt spray chamber body and a homogenization plate body, wherein the homogenization plate body is disposed inside the salt spray chamber body, and the surface of the homogenization plate body is provided with equally spaced leakage holes, which facilitate the downward flow of accumulated salt, and the leakage holes and the homogenization plate body are integrally formed.
[0006] The salt spray chamber body has a movable plate inside, and fixed cylinders are connected to the top two sides of the movable plate. The bottom of the fixed cylinders is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the salt spray chamber body, making the connection between the fixed cylinders and the salt spray chamber body more secure.
[0007] A motor is connected to the top of the movable plate, and a rotating rod is connected to the output end of the motor. A rotating box is provided on the surface of the rotating rod, and a fixed block is connected to the bottom of the rotating rod. A first brush is connected to the bottom of the fixed block.
[0008] The top of the first brush is connected to a second T-shaped slider, which is fixedly connected to the first brush. The fixed block has a T-shaped groove inside for sliding the second T-shaped slider. The T-shaped groove facilitates the positioning of the second T-shaped slider and the first brush. The top of the first brush is connected to a connecting block. A hydraulic cylinder is connected to one side of the fixed block, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the surface of the connecting block. The operation of the hydraulic cylinder facilitates the movement of the first brush. A limit block is connected to the other side of the first brush.
[0009] The rotating box has a fixed cavity inside, and a double-headed cylinder is installed inside the fixed cavity. Support rods are connected to the upper and lower sides of the double-headed cylinder, which can support the double-headed cylinder. Support plates are connected to the top of the support rods, and the support plates are fixed to the inner wall of the fixed cavity by fixing bolts, so that the double-headed cylinder can be better fixed inside the fixed cavity.
[0010] The output end of the double-headed cylinder is connected to a moving block. The double-headed cylinder makes it easy to push the moving block to move. One side of each of the two sets of moving blocks is fixedly connected to a movable rod, making the connection between the movable rod and the moving block more secure. The rotating box has slots on both sides, and one end of the movable rod passes through the slot and is fixedly connected to a second brush.
[0011] This invention also provides a method for cleaning accumulated salt on the homogenization plate of a folded salt spray chamber, specifically including the following steps:
[0012] S1. The fixed cylinder starts, pushing the moving plate towards the bottom of the salt spray chamber body, thereby moving the moving plate towards the surface of the homogenization plate body. During the movement of the moving plate, the motor will work normally.
[0013] S2. When the motor is working, the motor will drive the rotating rod to rotate. As the rotating rod rotates, it will drive the rotating box to rotate. At the same time as the rotating box rotates, the double-headed cylinder inside the rotating box will push the moving block to move. As the moving block moves, it will drive the movable rod to extend through the surface of the empty slot. Then the movable rod will drive the second brush to move towards the inner wall of the salt spray box body, so that the second brush will contact the inner wall of the salt spray box body.
[0014] S3. When the rotating rod drives the rotating box to rotate, the second brush can easily clean the inner wall of the salt spray box body when one side of the second brush contacts the inner wall of the salt spray box body, so that the salt accumulated in the salt spray box body will be swept away and fall onto the surface of the homogenization plate body, thus making it easier to clean.
[0015] S4. After the moving plate moves to a certain position, the bottom of the first brush contacts the top of the homogenizing plate body. Then the hydraulic cylinder starts to work, pushing the connecting block, which causes the connecting block to move the first brush to one side, while the first brush moves to the other side. The setting of the limiting block limits the position of the first brush. Then the motor continues to work, causing the motor to drive the rotating rod and the fixed block to rotate together. The fixed block will then drive the first brush to rotate, so that the first brush cleans the salt accumulation on the surface of the homogenizing plate body. The salt accumulation will flow down from the holes on the surface of the homogenizing plate body to the bottom of the salt spray chamber body.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the present invention provides a foldable salt spray chamber homogenization plate and a method for cleaning accumulated salt. The present invention uses a double-headed cylinder inside the chamber to drive the moving block to move. The moving block drives the movable rod to extend through the surface of the empty slot. The movable rod then drives the second brush to move towards the inner wall of the salt spray chamber body, so that the second brush contacts the inner wall of the salt spray chamber body.
[0017] Then, when the rotating rod drives the rotating box to rotate, the second brush can easily clean the inner wall of the salt spray box body, so that the salt accumulated in the salt spray box body will be swept away and fall onto the surface of the homogenization plate body, which makes it easier to clean.
[0018] After the moving plate moves to a certain position, the bottom of the first brush contacts the top of the homogenizing plate body. Then, the hydraulic cylinder starts to work, pushing the connecting block, which causes the connecting block to move the first brush to one side. Then, the setting of the limiting block limits the position of the first brush. Then, the motor continues to work, causing the motor to drive the rotating rod and the fixed block to rotate together. The fixed block will then drive the first brush to rotate, making the first brush clean the salt accumulation on the surface of the homogenizing plate body. The cleaning is more convenient, and the accumulated salt will flow down from the leakage holes on the surface of the homogenizing plate body to the bottom of the salt spray chamber body.

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] This invention provides, for example Figure 1-3 A foldable salt spray chamber homogenization plate includes a salt spray chamber body 1 and a homogenization plate body 2. The homogenization plate body 2 is disposed inside the salt spray chamber body 1. A movable plate 6 is disposed inside the salt spray chamber body 1. A motor 5 is connected to the top of the movable plate 6. A rotating rod 7 is connected to the output end of the motor 5. A rotating box 8 is disposed on the surface of the rotating rod 7. A fixing block 31 is connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 7. A first brush 12 is connected to the bottom of the fixing block 31.
[0025] The rotating box 8 has a fixed cavity 27 inside, and a double-headed cylinder 26 is installed inside the fixed cavity 27. The output end of the double-headed cylinder 26 is connected to a moving block 25. Movable rods 22 are fixedly connected to one side of each of the two sets of moving blocks 25. Hollow slots 21 are opened on both sides of the rotating box 8. One end of the movable rod 22 passes through the hollow slot 21 and is fixedly connected to a second brush 9.
[0026] The top two sides of the movable plate 6 are respectively connected to the fixed cylinders 4. The bottom of the fixed cylinders 4 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the salt spray box body 1, making the connection between the fixed cylinders 4 and the salt spray box body 1 more secure.
[0027] The homogenization plate body 2 has equally spaced drainage holes 14 on its surface, which facilitate the downward flow of accumulated salt. The drainage holes 14 are integrally formed with the homogenization plate body 2.
[0028] The two sides of the movable block 25 are respectively fixedly connected to the first T-shaped sliders 24. The inside of the rotating box 8 is provided with a first sliding groove 23 for sliding the first T-shaped sliders 24. During the movement of the movable block 25, the first T-shaped sliders 24 on both sides of the movable block 25 will slide into the inside of the first sliding groove 23, so that the first sliding groove 23 limits the first T-shaped sliders 24, so that the movable block 25 will always move in a horizontal state during the movement.
[0029] The upper and lower sides of the double-headed cylinder 26 are respectively connected to support rods 28, which facilitate the support of the double-headed cylinder 26. The top of the support rods 28 is respectively connected to support plates, and the support plates are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed cavity 27 by fixing bolts, so that the double-headed cylinder 26 can be better fixed inside the fixed cavity 27.
[0030] The bottom of the salt spray chamber body 1 is fixedly connected to a base 3, making the connection between the base 3 and the salt spray chamber body 1 more secure. The bottoms of the two sets of bases 3 are respectively connected to anti-slip patterns to prevent the bases 3 from shifting. The anti-slip patterns and the bases 3 are integrally formed.
[0031] The salt spray chamber body 1 has a discharge port 15 located at the center of the bottom. A T-type valve 16 is connected to the surface of the discharge port 15. Opening the T-type valve 16 allows the accumulated salt to flow out from the discharge port 15.
[0032] A fixing frame 18 is connected to one side of the salt spray chamber body 1. The fixing frame 18 is fixedly connected to the salt spray chamber body 1. A storage tank 17 is connected inside the fixing frame 18. The surface of the storage tank 17 is connected to a scale line 19, which makes it easy to observe the amount of material. A feed pipe 20 is connected to the bottom of the storage tank 17. One end of the feed pipe 20 is connected to the inside of the salt spray chamber body 1, and the material flows into the inside of the salt spray chamber body 1 from the feed pipe 20.
[0033] The top of the first brush 12 is connected to a second T-shaped slider 29, which is fixedly connected to the first brush 12. The fixed block 31 has a T-shaped groove 30 inside for sliding the second T-shaped slider 29. The second T-shaped slider 29 slides inside the T-shaped groove 30, which facilitates the positional limitation of the second T-shaped slider 29 and the first brush 12. The top of the first brush 12 is connected to a connecting block 10. A hydraulic cylinder 11 is connected to one side of the fixed block 31, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 11 is connected to the surface of the connecting block 10. The operation of the hydraulic cylinder 11 facilitates the movement of the first brush 12. A limit block 13 is connected to the other side of the first brush 12.
[0034] This invention also provides a method for cleaning accumulated salt on the homogenization plate of a folded salt spray chamber, specifically including the following steps:
[0035] S1. The fixed cylinder 4 is started, pushing the moving plate 6 towards the bottom of the salt spray chamber body 1, thereby causing the moving plate 6 to move towards the surface of the homogenization plate body 2. During the movement of the moving plate 6, the motor 5 will work normally.
[0036] S2. When the motor 5 is working, the motor 5 will drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate. When the rotating rod 7 rotates, the rotating box 8 will rotate. At the same time as the rotating box 8 rotates, the double-headed cylinder 26 inside the rotating box 8 will push the moving block 25 to move. When the moving block 25 moves, the moving block 25 will drive the movable rod 22 to extend through the surface of the empty slot 21. Then the movable rod 22 will drive the second brush 9 to move towards the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1, so that the second brush 9 will contact the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1.
[0037] S3. When the rotating rod 7 drives the rotating box 8 to rotate, the second brush 9 can easily clean the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1 when one side of the second brush 9 contacts the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1, so that the salt accumulated in the salt spray box body 1 will be swept away and fall onto the surface of the homogenization plate body 2, which makes it easier to clean.
[0038] S4. After the moving plate 6 moves to a certain position, the bottom of the first brush 12 contacts the top of the homogenizing plate body 2, and then the hydraulic cylinder 11 starts to work, pushing the connecting block 10, so that the connecting block 10 drives the first brush 12 to move to one side, and the first brush 12 will decrease on the other side. Then the limiting block 13 is set to limit the position of the first brush 12. Then the motor 5 continues to work, so that the motor 5 drives the rotating rod 7 and the fixed block 31 to rotate together, and the fixed block 31 will drive the first brush 12 to rotate, so that the first brush 12 cleans the salt accumulation on the surface of the homogenizing plate body 2, so that the salt accumulation flows down from the leakage hole 14 on the surface of the homogenizing plate body 2 and flows to the bottom of the salt spray box body 1.
[0039] In summary, compared with the prior art, the fixed cylinder 4 of the present invention is activated to push the moving plate 6 towards the bottom of the salt spray chamber body 1, thereby causing the moving plate 6 to move towards the surface of the homogenization plate body 2. During the movement of the moving plate 6, the motor 5 will work normally.
[0040] When the motor 5 is working, the motor 5 will drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate. When the rotating rod 7 rotates, the rotating box 8 will rotate. When the rotating box 8 rotates, the double-headed cylinder 26 inside the rotating box 8 will push the moving block 25 to move. When the moving block 25 moves, the moving block 25 will drive the movable rod 22 to extend through the surface of the empty slot 21. Then the movable rod 22 will drive the second brush 9 to move towards the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1, so that the second brush 9 will contact the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1.
[0041] During the movement of the movable block 25, the first T-shaped sliders 24 on both sides of the movable block 25 will slide into the inside of the first slide groove 23, so that the first slide groove 23 limits the first T-shaped sliders 24, so that the movable block 25 will always move in a horizontal state during the movement.
[0042] Then, when the rotating rod 7 drives the rotating box 8 to rotate, when one side of the second brush 9 contacts the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1, the second brush 9 can easily clean the inner wall of the salt spray box body 1, so that the accumulated salt in the salt spray box body 1 will be swept away, and the accumulated salt will fall on the surface of the homogenization plate body 2, which makes it easier to clean.
[0043] After the moving plate 6 moves to a certain position, the bottom of the first brush 12 contacts the top of the homogenizing plate body 2, and then the hydraulic cylinder 11 starts to work, pushing the connecting block 10, so that the connecting block 10 drives the first brush 12 to move to one side, and the other side of the first brush 12 will be reduced. During the movement of the first brush 12, the second T-shaped slider 29 on the top of the first brush 12 will slide into the T-shaped groove 30 inside the fixed block 31, and then the T-shaped groove 30 limits the position of the second T-shaped slider 29 and the first brush 12.
[0044] The setting of the limiting block 13 limits the position of the first brush 12. Then the motor 5 continues to work, so that the motor 5 drives the rotating rod 7 and the fixed block 31 to rotate together. The fixed block 31 will then drive the first brush 12 to rotate, so that the first brush 12 cleans the salt accumulation on the surface of the homogenization plate body 2, making cleaning more convenient. The accumulated salt will flow down from the leakage hole 14 on the surface of the homogenization plate body 2 to the bottom of the salt spray box body 1.
[0045] The accumulated salt will then fall into the outlet 15. The T-valve 16 is then opened, releasing its control over the outlet 15, allowing the accumulated salt to flow out. This facilitates the cleaning of the salt accumulation on the surface of the homogenizing plate 2, reducing salt accumulation inside both the homogenizing plate 2 and the salt spray chamber 1.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
