Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cleaning calcination pots, specifically disclosing an apparatus for cleaning waste rare earth calcination pots. Background Technology
[0002] Rare earth calcination bowls are containers used during rare earth calcination. They are resistant to acids, alkalis, and high temperatures, preventing damage from the high-temperature environment and calcination products during the rare earth calcination process, thus providing good performance. However, discarded rare earth calcination bowls often contain a large amount of calcination impurities. To prevent these impurities from affecting the calcination of rare earths, the rare earth calcination bowls need to be cleaned, allowing them to be reused.
[0003] There is currently no specialized cleaning device for rare earth calcination bowls. Therefore, the traditional method of cleaning rare earth calcination bowls involves rinsing with running water and a cleaning brush. Obviously, the area that can be cleaned by this method is fixed, meaning that the operation needs to be carried out along the inner wall of the rare earth calcination bowl. Depending on the depth of the rare earth calcination bowl being cleaned, when cleaning rare earth calcination bowls of different sizes, it is necessary to continuously control the flow of water and the movement of the cleaning brush according to the depth of the rare earth calcination bowl. This makes the cleaning of rare earth calcination bowls inconvenient. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings mentioned in the background art, the present invention provides a device for cleaning waste rare earth incineration pots that can be used conveniently.
[0005] The technical solution is as follows: A device for cleaning waste rare earth incineration pots includes: a frame shell; an operation panel fixedly connected to the front side of the frame shell; a support plate fixedly connected to the inside of the frame shell; guide frames fixedly connected to the left and right sides inside the frame shell; a sliding frame slidably connected to the guide frames; a support frame slidably connected to the sliding frame, with the rare earth incineration pot placed upside down on the support frame; a cleaning brush rotatably connected to the support plate; a drive assembly connected between the support plate and the cleaning brush; a sliding sleeve slidably connected to the cleaning brush, with evenly distributed water outlet holes on the side wall of the cleaning brush, the sliding sleeve blocking the water outlet holes; a water pipe connected to the sliding sleeve, with water sprayed out from the water outlet holes; and a discharge port connected to the bottom of the frame shell.

[0008] Preferably, the drive assembly includes: a servo motor fixedly connected to the support plate; a gear fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor; and a gear ring fixedly connected to the cleaning brush, wherein the gear meshes with the gear ring.
[0009] Preferably, it further includes: a mounting bracket fixedly connected to the sliding frame; a limiting block slidably connected to the mounting bracket, the limiting block being able to contact the rare earth calcining pot placed upside down on the support frame; and a compression spring b fixedly connected between the mounting bracket and the limiting block.
[0010] Preferably, it further includes: a water storage frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame shell; a sealing plate detachably connected to the water storage frame; and a filter screen fixedly connected to the water storage frame.
[0011] Preferably, it further includes: a reciprocating screw rotatably connected inside the frame housing, the thread length of the reciprocating screw being consistent with the length of the filter screen; a guide rod fixedly connected inside the frame housing; a sliding strip slidably connected to the guide rod, the sliding strip being threadedly connected to the reciprocating screw; and a scraper connected to the sliding strip.
[0012] Preferably, the scraper is rotatably connected to the sliding bar and can only rotate forward when it is in its initial rotational position.

[0013] Preferably, it further includes: a bevel gear fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor and the reciprocating screw, the bevel gears meshing with each other.
[0014] Preferably, it further includes: a window fixedly connected to the front visible side of the frame.
[0015] The beneficial effects are as follows: 1. This device is designed to change the cleaning area range within the same time according to the depth of the rare earth calcining bowl, eliminating the need to constantly adjust the position of the cleaning brush and the flowing water to clean the rare earth calcining bowl. This makes the device simple to operate and convenient to use. Compared with the existing technology, the cleaning efficiency is higher.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] 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.
[0031] Example: An apparatus for cleaning waste rare earth calcining pots, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, the device includes: a frame 1, in which a rare earth calcining bowl is cleaned; a viewing window 31 is provided on the upper front side of the frame 1 for observing the cleaning process of the rare earth calcining bowl; an operation panel 2 installed on the front side of the frame 1 for operating the device for cleaning; a support plate 3 installed in the middle of the frame 1; guide frames 4 installed on the left and right sides inside the frame 1; a sliding frame 5 slidably installed on the guide frame 4, which slides up and down; a support frame 6 slidably installed on the sliding frame 5, which slides back and forth; the rare earth calcining bowl is placed upside down on the support frame 6, which allows the rare earth calcining bowl to be moved in or out of the frame 1, and the sliding frame 5 allows the rare earth calcining bowl to move up and down within the frame 1; an electric slide rail 7 installed between the sliding frame 5 and the support frame 6, which controls the back and forth movement of the support frame 6; and a lead screw motor 8 installed on the support plate 3, in which the sliding frame 5 is fixed to the lead screw nut of the lead screw motor 8, which controls the up and down movement of the support frame 6.
[0032] like Figure 2 , Figures 5-7As shown, it includes: two cleaning brushes 9 rotatably mounted on the support plate 3, the bristles of which are long enough to allow the cleaning brushes 9 to extend into the rare earth calcining pot and contact any position on the inner side wall of the rare earth calcining pot. The cleaning brushes 9 are hollow inside, and the side walls of the cleaning brushes 9 have evenly distributed water outlet holes; a drive assembly installed between the support plate 3 and the two cleaning brushes 9, the drive assembly being used to control the rotation of the cleaning brushes 9; a sliding sleeve 10 slidably installed inside the cleaning brushes 9, the sliding sleeve 10 being able to block the water outlet holes on the side walls of the cleaning brushes 9; and a water pipe 11 installed on the frame 1, one end of the water pipe 11 being connected to the sliding sleeve 10; The outlet 12 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1, and the opening and closing of the outlet 12 is controllable; the movable frame 13 is slidably installed on the support plate 3, the bottom of the movable frame 13 is fixed to the bottom of the sliding sleeve 10, and the upper end of the movable frame 13 is in contact with the sliding frame 5. Therefore, when the sliding frame 5 moves downward, it pushes the movable frame 13 to move downward; the compression spring a14 is sleeved on the upper end of the movable frame 13 and fixed between the movable frame 13 and the support plate 3. It is used to make the movable frame 13 move upward when the sliding frame 5 moves upward. In this way, the sliding sleeve 10 can be controlled to move up and down through the movable frame 13, thereby changing the blocking situation of the water outlet of the cleaning brush 9.
[0033] like Figure 7 As shown, the drive assembly includes: a servo motor 15 mounted on the bottom of the support plate 3, the top surface of the support plate 3 being inclined and the bottom surface area of the support plate 3 being larger than the size area of the servo motor 15, so as to guide water flow and protect the servo motor 15; a gear 16 mounted on the output end of the servo motor 15; and gear rings 17 mounted on the bottom of the two cleaning brushes 9, with the gear 16 meshing with both gear rings 17, so the servo motor 15 will control the cleaning brushes 9 to rotate and brush the rare earth calcining pot, while the sliding sleeve 10 rotates relative to the cleaning brushes 9.
[0034] Operating panel 2, the electric slide rail 7 is activated to slide forward onto the support frame 6, placing the rare earth calcination bowl upside down on the support frame 6. Then, the support frame 6 is moved backward to move the rare earth calcination bowl into the frame 1. After completion, the lead screw motor 8 is activated to control the sliding frame 5 and the rare earth calcination bowl on it to move downward. The downward movement distance of the rare earth calcination bowl is controlled according to its depth. During this process, the cleaning brush 9 extends into the rare earth calcination bowl, with its bristles contacting all five inner walls of the bowl. As the sliding frame 5 moves downward, the sliding sleeve 10 moves downward synchronously via the moving frame 13. The length of the unblocked water outlet on the cleaning brush 9 is then consistent with the depth of the rare earth calcination bowl. Water is then supplied to the cleaning brush 9 through the water pipe 11 and the sliding sleeve 10, and the operation is activated. After the servo motor 15 rotates the cleaning brush 9, the interior of the rare earth calcination bowl can be thoroughly cleaned. At the same time, the cleaning brush 9 also sprays water at corresponding positions inside the rare earth calcination bowl. The sprayed water carries away the impurities cleaned by the cleaning brush 9, preventing the impurities from remaining inside the rare earth calcination bowl and ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning brush 9. Therefore, while ensuring the cleaning effect, this device can change the cleaning area range at the same time according to the depth of the rare earth calcination bowl, without the need to constantly adjust the position of the cleaning brush 9 and the flowing water to clean the rare earth calcination bowl. This makes the device simple to operate and convenient to use. Compared with the existing technology, the cleaning efficiency is higher, and the device can also be adjusted according to the size of the rare earth calcination bowl, expanding the application range of the device.
[0035] like Figure 8 As shown, it also includes: mounting brackets 18 installed on the left and right sides of the sliding frame 5; limiting blocks 19 slidably installed on the mounting brackets 18; and compression springs b20 sleeved on the limiting blocks 19. The compression springs b20 are fixed between the mounting brackets 18 and the limiting blocks 19 and are used to apply downward pressure to the limiting blocks 19. The limiting blocks 19 act on the bottom surface of the inverted rare earth calcining pot, thereby cooperating with the support frame 6 to limit and fix the position of the rare earth calcining pot. When the support frame 6 moves forward, the rare earth calcining pot slides relative to the limiting blocks 19 and then disengages from the limiting blocks 19. The compression springs b20 deform and reset, moving the limiting blocks 19 downward. Conversely, when the support frame 6 moves the rare earth calcining pot backward, the rare earth calcining pot will contact the limiting blocks 19 and squeeze the limiting blocks 19 upward, causing the compression springs b20 to be compressed and deformed.
[0036] When using this device, in order to ensure the cleaning effect, the bristles of the cleaning brush 9 are relatively long. Therefore, during the rotation of the cleaning brush 9 inside the square rare earth calcination bowl, the bristles of the cleaning brush 9 will undergo a state of first deformation and then recovery, while generating a reaction force on the rare earth calcination bowl. This causes the position of the rare earth calcination bowl on the support frame 6 to be unstable. Therefore, the use of the limiting block 19 to fix the position of the rare earth calcination bowl on the support frame 6 can make the rare earth calcination bowl better cleaned and prevent the rare earth calcination bowl from falling off the support frame 6, which would cause inconvenience in use, thereby improving the use effect of this device.
[0037] like Figure 2 , Figures 9-11 As shown, it also includes: a water storage frame 21 installed at the bottom of the frame 1, where water from washing the rare earth calcining pot will fall into the water storage frame 21, which is connected to the outlet 12, through which the water will be discharged; a detachable sealing plate 22 bolted to the front of the water storage frame 21; a filter screen 23 installed inside the water storage frame 21, which filters out impurities brought out by the water after washing the rare earth calcining pot, and these impurities can be cleaned by opening the sealing plate 22; a reciprocating screw 24 installed inside the frame 1, the length of the thread on the reciprocating screw 24 being the same as the length of the top surface of the filter screen 23; and bevel gears 25 installed at the output end of the servo motor 15 and on the reciprocating screw 24, which mesh with each other, allowing the servo motor 15 to control the rotation of the reciprocating screw 24; and an installation... Guide rods 26 are installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the frame 1, and guide rods 26 are on the left and right sides of the top of the water storage frame 21; sliding strips 27 are slidably installed between the two guide rods 26, and sliding strips 27 are threadedly connected to reciprocating screws 24. The rotation of reciprocating screws 24 controls the forward and backward movement of sliding strips 27; scraper strips 28 are rotatably installed at the bottom of sliding strips 27, and scraper strips 28 are in contact with the top surface of filter screen 23. Sliding strips 27 ensure that scraper strips 28 can only rotate forward and not backward when in the initial rotation position; adjusting blocks 29 are slidably installed on the left and right sides of the water storage frame 21. Adjusting blocks 29 can slide downward and retract into the water storage frame 21; compression springs c30 are sleeved on adjusting blocks 29 and fixed between adjusting blocks 29 and water storage frame 21, and are used to push adjusting blocks 29 upward.
[0038] When using this device, the water after washing the rare earth calcining bowl will fall into the water storage frame 21, and impurities will be filtered out by the filter screen 23. The water can be discharged by opening the outlet 12. During washing of the rare earth calcining bowl, the servo motor 15 will synchronously rotate the reciprocating screw 24 via the bevel gear 25, controlling the sliding bar 27 to move back and forth along the guide rod 26. When the sliding bar 27 moves backward, the scraper 28 contacts the adjusting block 29 and is rotated forward. The scraper 28 will not contact the filter screen 23 until it moves to the rearmost side of the water storage frame 21 and separates from the adjusting block 29. Conversely, when the sliding bar 27 moves forward, the scraper 28 contacts the adjusting block 29 again, but it cannot rotate backward. Therefore, the scraper 28 will press the adjusting block 29 downward, compressing the compression spring c30. As the scraper 28 moves forward, it will be in contact with the filter screen 23 throughout the process, scraping the impurities filtered out of the filter screen 23 forward and onto the front side of the water storage frame 21. Then, the scraper 28 moves to the front of the water storage frame 21 and separates from the adjusting block 29 again. The compressed spring c30 causes the adjusting block 29 to move upward and return to its original position. In this way, during the entire cleaning process, the scraper 28 can only push the impurities forward, preventing the filter screen 23 from accumulating too many impurities and becoming unusable, and preventing some impurities from accumulating on the back side of the filter screen 23, which would make cleaning inconvenient. This makes the use of this device more convenient. Finally, the sealing plate 22 can be opened to clean the impurities on the front side of the water storage frame 21. The impurities separated can be recycled, improving the economic efficiency of this device.
[0039] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications, improvements, and substitutions without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
