Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ink cartridge cleaning, and specifically to a cleaning device and processing technology for recycled ink cartridges. Background Art

[0002] Inkjet imaging devices such as printers, copiers, and fax machines, as common office equipment, provide great convenience for modern office work. Printers are all equipped with ink cartridges that are convenient for users to replace and used to hold ink. Recycled ink cartridges are the implementers of the printer output function and work passively by receiving instructions. Their quality problems will not have any impact on the printer motherboard and printer program. However, discarded ink cartridges cause great environmental pollution, mainly in three aspects: white pollution caused by the non-degradable plastic shell, water pollution caused by colored ink, and air particle pollution caused by black and colored powders. Before refilling the recycled ink cartridge, it is necessary to clean the inside of the ink cartridge first to prevent the previous ink from remaining inside the ink chamber and affecting the operation of the recycled ink cartridge. Therefore, a cleaning device for recycled ink cartridges is needed for the cleaning work.

[0003] Currently, when cleaning recycled ink cartridges, it is easy for dead corners to appear in the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge, resulting in inconvenient cleaning of internal debris. Residues in the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge will affect subsequent reuse. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: A cleaning device for recycled ink cartridges, comprising:

[0005] A cleaning tank, which has a box body with a supporting function. An inlet is provided at the side of the top of the cleaning tank, and a feeding mechanism is installed inside the cleaning tank near the inlet.

[0006] An adjustment mechanism, which is used to adjust the position of the cleaning tool. The adjustment mechanism is installed inside the cleaning tank near the bottom.

[0007] Among them, the adjustment mechanism includes a pump body and a cylinder. The pump body is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the cleaning tank. The cylinder is fixedly installed at the side of the outside of the cleaning tank. The output end of the cylinder is fixedly installed with a transmission. The transmission is slidably installed with the cleaning tank. Baffles and a brushing assembly are distributed and installed at the top of the transmission. The baffle is installed outside the cleaning tank. A servo motor is fixedly installed at the outside of the transmission near the baffle. A hose is connected between the pump body and the brushing assembly. Through the conveying of the recycled ink cartridge by a conveyor belt, when the recycled ink cartridge is conveyed directly above the brushing assembly, the opening of the recycled ink cartridge faces downward, and the stepping motor pauses to work. At this time, a recycled ink cartridge can be replenished on the clamping assembly with a vacancy at the top of the conveyor belt;

[0008] By utilizing the extension of the output end of the cylinder, the transmission can be pushed upward, thereby driving the scrubbing assembly to move upward as a whole, so that the position of the scrubbing assembly as a whole can be adjusted in time, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the regenerated ink cartridge. When the top end of the cylinder extends to the inside of the regenerated ink cartridge, the cylinder is stopped from working, so that the scrubbing assembly as a whole will not move upward;

[0009] The brushing assembly comprises a cylinder, which is rotatably mounted on the top of the transmission, and the cylinder is installed with the output end of the servo motor through the transmission transmission, and the bottom end of the cylinder extends to the bottom of the transmission, and the top of the cylinder is connected with a liquid spray head, and the outer cylindrical surface of the cylinder is fixedly mounted with a brush, and the bottom end of the cylinder is rotatably mounted with a rotating connector, and the bottom of the rotating connector is mounted with a U-shaped tube, and the liquid inlet end of the bottom of the U-shaped tube is connected with the top end of the hose, and the cylinder is rotated by the rotation of the output end of the servo motor and the power output of the transmission, so that the liquid spray head and the brush can be driven to rotate together;

[0010] The pump body is used as the power to output the cleaning liquid at the bottom of the cleaning box, and under the transportation of the hose and the U-shaped tube, the cleaning liquid enters the cylinder and is sprayed from the spray head to the inner cavity of the regenerated ink cartridge. In combination with the continuous rotation of the spray head and the tilted installation of the spray head, the sprayed cleaning liquid forms a vortex, which can fully contact the cleaned debris in a dynamic manner. The cleaning liquid in the vortex state can reach every corner and subtle place faster, effectively remove dirt, impurities and residues, and combined with the rotating brush to brush away the debris, reduce the residual debris, and make the debris cleaning quick and convenient.

[0011] Preferably, there are two cylinders, and the two cylinders are symmetrically installed along the transmission, and the baffle is installed vertically to block the cleaning liquid splashed when the regenerated ink cartridge is cleaned, and the baffle is installed directly above the transmission.

[0012] Preferably, the liquid spray heads are evenly distributed on the top of the cylinder, the liquid spray heads are installed obliquely, the cleaning liquid sprayed from the ends of the liquid spray heads is easy to form a vortex, and the brushes are evenly distributed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder.

[0013] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a driving roller and a driven roller. The driving roller and the driven roller are rotatably installed inside the cleaning box. The driving roller and the driven roller are installed at the same height, and the driving roller is installed directly below the feeding port. A stepping motor is fixedly installed at the side of the cleaning box. The output end of the stepping motor is fixedly installed with the driving roller through a coupling. A conveyor belt is installed between the driving roller and the driven roller. Card slots are formed on the outer circumferential surfaces of the driving roller and the driven roller. Semi-circular blocks are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the conveyor belt near the card slots. A clamping assembly is installed on the outer side of the conveyor belt near the middle position. By rotating the output end of the stepping motor, the driving roller is driven to rotate. With the rotational support of the driven roller, the conveyor belt is driven to operate. The clamping assembly is used to clamp the recycled ink cartridge as a whole, so that the recycled ink cartridge can be conveyed, thus realizing the function of automatic feeding;

[0014] By controlling the running speed of the conveyor belt, recycled ink cartridges can be placed one by one on the clamping assembly at the top of the conveyor belt, which helps with subsequent batch conveying.

[0015] Preferably, the position of the stepping motor corresponds to the position of the driving roller, which is convenient for driving the driving roller to rotate by the rotation of the output end of the stepping motor. The semi-circular blocks are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the conveyor belt.

[0016] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a strip-shaped guide rail. The bottom of the strip-shaped guide rail is fixedly installed at the side of the outer side of the conveyor belt. A slider is slidably installed inside the strip-shaped guide rail. A right-angled elastic piece is fixedly installed between the outer side of the slider and the inner wall of the strip-shaped guide rail. A clamping plate is fixedly installed at the end of the slider away from the right-angled elastic piece. A right-angled limiting plate is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer side of the clamping plate. With the recycled ink cartridge located between two symmetrical clamping plates and pressed downward, combined with the sliding connection of the slider and the elastic force provided by the right-angled elastic piece, the recycled ink cartridge can be clamped. With the right-angled limiting plates on both sides of the recycled ink cartridge, the recycled ink cartridge is limited and not prone to deviation.

[0017] Preferably, the top of the clamping plate is arc-shaped. There are two right-angled limiting plates, and the two right-angled limiting plates are symmetrically installed along the clamping plate.

[0018] Preferably, an auxiliary component is installed inside the cleaning box and near the conveyor belt. The auxiliary component includes a connecting round rod. Both ends of the connecting round rod are rotatably installed on the corresponding two sides of the inner wall of the cleaning box. The connecting round rod passes through the inside of the conveyor belt. A swing plate is fixedly installed at the middle of the outer circular surface of the connecting round rod. A torsion spring is fixedly installed between the outer circular surface of the connecting round rod and the inner wall of the cleaning box. The connecting round rod passes through the center of the torsion spring. A roller is rotatably installed on the outer circular surface of the connecting round rod and near the torsion spring through a bracket. One end of the swing plate away from the connecting round rod is fixedly installed with a crescent block. By using the semi-circular block to contact the roller, as the semi-circular block moves continuously, the roller is pushed upward, and under the rotational connection of the connecting round rod, the swing plate can be driven to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, and the torsion spring is compressed by the torque force, so as to drive the crescent block to move upward in the direction away from the top of the inner wall of the conveyor belt;

[0019] As the semi-circular block continues to move, by using the semi-circular block to disengage from the roller, and under the elastic force provided by the torsion spring, the swing plate drives the crescent block to rotate counterclockwise to reset, and the conveyor belt can be tapped, so that the conveyed recycled ink cartridges are impacted and vibrated, and the sundries attached inside the recycled ink cartridges fall off, thereby preprocessing the recycled ink cartridges.

[0020] Preferably, there are two torsion springs, and the two torsion springs are symmetrically installed along the swing plate. The top of the crescent block is an arc surface, and the top of the crescent block fits with the top of the inner wall of the conveyor belt.

[0021] A cleaning treatment process for recycled ink cartridges includes the following steps:

[0022] Step 1: Inject an appropriate amount of cleaning liquid into the cleaning box, and put the recycled ink cartridges to be cleaned from the feed port to the position of the clamping component inside the cleaning box. The recycled ink cartridges are located between two symmetrically arranged clamping plates, and the recycled ink cartridges are pressed downward, and the right-angle elastic pieces provide elastic force to clamp the recycled ink cartridges;

[0023] Step 2: Start the stepper motor to work. Drive the driving roller to rotate by the output end of the stepper motor, so that the conveyor belt runs, and use the clamping component as a whole to clamp the recycled ink cartridges and convey the recycled ink cartridges, thereby realizing the function of automatic feeding, and controlling the running speed of the conveyor belt, and placing the recycled ink cartridges on the clamping component at the top of the conveyor belt one by one, which helps subsequent batch conveying;

[0024] Step 3: The conveyor belt drives the semi-circular block to move, and by using the position of the semi-circular block corresponding to the position of the card slot, the moving semi-circular block is embedded in the card slot, so that the conveyor belt runs synchronously with the driving roller and the driven roller, and the material conveying is accurate;

[0025] Step Four: The semi-circular block in motion applies an upward driving force to the roller, driving the swing plate to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, thereby driving the crescent block to move towards the top away from the inner wall of the conveyor belt. Along with the separation of the semi-circular block from the roller, under the elastic force provided by the torsion spring, by knocking on the conveyor belt, the conveyed recycled ink cartridges are impacted and vibrated, causing the sundries attached inside the recycled ink cartridges to fall off;

[0026] Step Five: By conveying the recycled ink cartridges to directly above the brushing assembly, pause the stepper motor to work, replenish the recycled ink cartridges on the clamping assembly that is vacant at the top of the conveyor belt, and turn on the cylinder to work. Push the transmission upward by the elongation of the output end of the cylinder to timely adjust the overall position of the brushing assembly;

[0027] Step Six: Turn on the servo motor to work, and under the power output of the transmission, make the cylinder rotate, driving the spray head and the brush to rotate together, and output the cleaning liquid at the bottom of the cleaning tank through the pump body. The cleaning liquid enters the cylinder and sprays out from the spray head into the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge to clean the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge, and combined with the rotating brush, brush off the sundries;

[0028] Step Seven: After the first batch of recycled ink cartridges is cleaned, use the contraction of the output end of the cylinder again. Driven by the transmission, move the top of the cylinder out of the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge, and turn on the stepper motor to work again to convey the next batch of recycled ink cartridges to be cleaned, and repeat the ascending action for batch cleaning;

[0029] Step Eight: As the conveyor belt keeps running, at this time, the recycled ink cartridges with the openings facing down after cleaning cause the cleaning liquid attached to the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridges to automatically fall off, and recycle the cleaning liquid.

[0030] The present invention provides a cleaning device and a processing technology for recycled ink cartridges. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0031] First, for the cleaning device and processing technology of the recycled ink cartridges, by rotating the cylinder, the spray head and the brush can be driven to rotate together. The cleaning liquid enters the cylinder and sprays out from the spray head into the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge. Combined with the continuous rotation of the spray head and the inclined installation of the spray head, the sprayed cleaning liquid forms a swirling flow, which can contact the sundries to be cleaned fully in a dynamic manner. And the cleaning liquid in the swirling flow state can reach every corner and fine place faster, effectively removing dirt, impurities and residues. Combined with the rotating brush to brush off the sundries, reducing the sundries residue, making the sundries cleaning fast and convenient.

[0032] Second, for the cleaning equipment and treatment process of the recycled ink cartridge, by extending the output end of the cylinder, the transmission can be pushed upward, driving the entire brushing assembly to move upward, so as to timely adjust the position of the entire brushing assembly, which helps to clean the recycled ink cartridge.

[0033] Third, for the cleaning equipment and treatment process of the recycled ink cartridge, as the conveyor belt keeps running, at this time, the recycled ink cartridge with the opening facing downward after cleaning can make the cleaning liquid attached to the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge fall off automatically, which helps to reduce the attachment of the cleaning liquid, recycle the cleaning liquid, and reduce resource waste.

[0034] Fourth, for the cleaning equipment and treatment process of the recycled ink cartridge, the recycled ink cartridge is located between two symmetrical clamping plates, pressed downward, combined with the sliding connection of the slider, and the right-angle elastic sheet provides elasticity, so as to clamp the recycled ink cartridge. And with the right-angle limiting plates on both sides of the recycled ink cartridge, the recycled ink cartridge is limited and not prone to deviation.

[0035] Fifth, for the cleaning equipment and treatment process of the recycled ink cartridge, the output end of the stepper motor drives the driving roller to rotate, and combined with the rotational support of the driven roller, the conveyor belt is driven to run. And the entire clamping assembly clamps the recycled ink cartridge, so as to convey the recycled ink cartridge, automatically convey the material, and control the running speed of the conveyor belt. The recycled ink cartridges can be placed one by one on the clamping assembly at the top of the conveyor belt, which helps subsequent batch conveying.

[0036] Sixth, for the cleaning equipment and treatment process of the recycled ink cartridge, when the driving roller and the driven roller rotate, combined with the running of the conveyor belt, the semi-circular block is driven to move. And with the position of the semi-circular block corresponding to the position of the card slot, the moving semi-circular block can be embedded into the card slot, so that the conveyor belt runs synchronously with the driving roller and the driven roller, not prone to slipping, and the material conveying is accurate.

[0037] Seventh, for the cleaning equipment and treatment process of the recycled ink cartridge, the semi-circular block applies an upward driving force to the roller, and under the rotational connection of the connecting round rod, the swing plate can be driven to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, thus driving the crescent block to move upward in the direction away from the inner wall of the conveyor belt. As the semi-circular block disengages from the roller, and under the elastic force provided by the torsion spring, the swing plate drives the crescent block to rotate counterclockwise for resetting. By knocking on the conveyor belt, the conveyed recycled ink cartridge is impacted and vibrated, so that the sundries attached inside the recycled ink cartridge fall off, and thus the recycled ink cartridge is pre-treated.

[0050] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are given for purposes of illustration and description, and are not exhaustive or limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and thus design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific purposes.

[0051] The first embodiment is as Figures 1-6 shown. The present invention provides a technical solution: a cleaning device for a recycled ink cartridge, comprising:

[0052] A cleaning tank 1, the cleaning tank 1 having a box body with a supporting function. A feed port 2 is provided at the side of the top of the cleaning tank 1. An upper feeding mechanism 3 is installed inside the cleaning tank 1 and near the feed port 2;

[0053] An adjusting mechanism 4, the adjusting mechanism 4 being used to adjust the position of the cleaning appliance. The adjusting mechanism 4 is installed inside the cleaning tank 1 and near the bottom position;

[0054] Among them, the adjusting mechanism 4 includes a pump body 41 and a cylinder 42. The pump body 41 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the cleaning tank 1. The cylinder 42 is fixedly installed at the side of the outside of the cleaning tank 1. The output end of the cylinder 42 is fixedly installed with a transmission 43. The transmission 43 is slidably installed with respect to the cleaning tank 1. A baffle 44 and a brushing assembly 46 are distributed and installed at the top of the transmission 43. The baffle 44 is installed outside the cleaning tank 1. A servo motor 45 is fixedly installed at the outside of the transmission 43 and near the baffle 44. A hose 47 is connected between the pump body 41 and the brushing assembly 46. Through the conveyance of the recycled ink cartridge by the conveyor belt 34, when the recycled ink cartridge is conveyed to directly above the brushing assembly 46, at this time the opening of the recycled ink cartridge faces downward, and the stepping motor 33 is paused from working. At this time, the recycled ink cartridge can be replenished on the clamping assembly 37 that is vacant at the top of the conveyor belt 34;

[0055] And the cylinder 42 is started to work. By the elongation of the output end of the cylinder 42, the transmission 43 can be pushed to move upward, thereby driving the entire brushing assembly 46 to move upward, so that the position of the entire brushing assembly 46 can be adjusted in time, which helps to clean the recycled ink cartridge. When the top end of the cylinder 461 extends into the recycled ink cartridge, the cylinder 42 is paused from working, so that the entire brushing assembly 46 will not move upward;

[0056] There are two cylinders 42, and the two cylinders 42 are symmetrically installed along the transmission 43. The baffle 44 is vertically installed, which is convenient for blocking the cleaning liquid splashed during the cleaning of the recycled ink cartridge, and the baffle 44 is installed directly above the transmission 43.

[0057] The brushing assembly 46 includes a cylinder 461 rotatably mounted on the top of the transmission 43. The cylinder 461 is drivingly mounted between the output end of the servo motor 45 through the transmission 43. The bottom end of the cylinder 461 extends to the bottom of the transmission 43. A liquid spraying head 462 is connected to the top of the cylinder 461. A brush 463 is fixedly mounted on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder 461. A rotating connector 464 is rotatably mounted at the bottom end of the cylinder 461. A U-shaped pipe 465 is mounted at the bottom of the rotating connector 464. The liquid inlet end at the bottom of the U-shaped pipe 465 is communicated with the top end of the hose 47. When the staff turns on the servo motor 45 to work, by using the rotation of the output end of the servo motor 45 and the power output by the transmission 43, the cylinder 461 rotates, so that the liquid spraying head 462 and the brush 463 are driven to rotate together. Then turn on the pump body 41 to work. Using the pump body 41 as the power, the cleaning liquid at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 is output. Through the transportation of the hose 47 and the U-shaped pipe 465, the cleaning liquid enters the cylinder 461 and sprays out from the liquid spraying head 462 into the inner cavity of the regenerative ink cartridge. Combined with the continuous rotation of the liquid spraying head 462 and the inclined installation of the liquid spraying head 462, the sprayed cleaning liquid forms a swirling flow, which promotes the cleaning of sundries. Combined with the rotating brush 463, the sundries are brushed off, reducing the residue of sundries and making the cleaning of sundries fast and convenient.

[0058] The liquid spraying heads 462 are evenly distributed on the top of the cylinder 461. The liquid spraying heads 462 are inclinedly installed, so that the cleaning liquid sprayed out from the end of the liquid spraying head 462 is convenient to form a swirling flow. The brushes 463 are evenly distributed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder 461.

[0059] The second embodiment is as Figures 7-9 shown. The feeding mechanism 3 includes a driving roller 31 and a driven roller 32. The driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32 are rotatably mounted inside the cleaning tank 1. The driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32 are mounted at the same height, and the driving roller 31 is mounted directly below the feeding port 2. A stepping motor 33 is fixedly mounted on the side of the cleaning tank 1. The output end of the stepping motor 33 is fixedly mounted with the driving roller 31 through a coupling. A conveyor belt 34 is mounted between the driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32. Card slots 35 are formed on the outer circumferential surfaces of the driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32. Semi-circular blocks 36 are fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 34 near the card slots 35. A clamping assembly 37 is mounted on the outer side of the conveyor belt 34 near the middle position. When the staff turns on the stepping motor 33 to work, by using the rotation of the output end of the stepping motor 33, the driving roller 31 is driven to rotate. Combined with the rotational support of the driven roller 32, the conveyor belt 34 is driven to run. By using the clamping assembly 37 to clamp the regenerative ink cartridge as a whole, the regenerative ink cartridge can be conveyed.

[0060] Moreover, by controlling the running speed of the conveyor belt 34, the regenerative cartridges can be placed one by one on the clamping assembly 37 at the top of the conveyor belt 34, which helps with subsequent batch transportation.

[0061] The position of the stepping motor 33 corresponds to the position of the driving roller 31, which facilitates driving the driving roller 31 to rotate by the rotation of the output end of the stepping motor 33. The semi-circular blocks 36 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 34.

[0062] The clamping assembly 37 includes a strip-shaped guide rail 371. The bottom of the strip-shaped guide rail 371 is fixedly installed at the side of the outer side of the conveyor belt 34. A slider 372 is slidably installed inside the strip-shaped guide rail 371. A right-angle elastic piece 373 is fixedly installed between the outer side of the slider 372 and the inner wall of the strip-shaped guide rail 371. One end of the slider 372 away from the right-angle elastic piece 373 is fixedly installed with a clamping plate 374. A right-angle limiting plate 375 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer side of the clamping plate 374. The staff injects an appropriate amount of cleaning liquid into the cleaning tank 1 and places the regenerative cartridge to be cleaned from the feed port 2 to the position of the clamping assembly 37 inside the cleaning tank 1. By using the regenerative cartridge located between two symmetrical clamping plates 374, pressing the regenerative cartridge downward, and combining with the sliding connection of the slider 372, and the right-angle elastic piece 373 providing elasticity, the regenerative cartridge can be clamped, and the regenerative cartridge is limited by the right-angle limiting plates 375 on both sides of the regenerative cartridge.

[0063] The top end of the clamping plate 374 is arc-shaped. There are two right-angle limiting plates 375, and the two right-angle limiting plates 375 are symmetrically installed along the clamping plate 374.

[0064] The third embodiment, as Figures 7-11 shown, on the basis of the second embodiment:

[0065] An auxiliary component 5 is installed inside the cleaning box 1 and near the conveyor belt 34. The auxiliary component 5 includes a connecting round rod 51. Both ends of the connecting round rod 51 are rotatably installed on the corresponding two sides of the inner wall of the cleaning box 1. The connecting round rod 51 passes through the inside of the conveyor belt 34. A swing plate 52 is fixedly installed at the middle of the outer circular surface of the connecting round rod 51. A torsion spring 53 is fixedly installed between the outer circular surface of the connecting round rod 51 and the inner wall of the cleaning box 1. The connecting round rod 51 passes through the center of the torsion spring 53. A roller 54 is rotatably installed on the outer circular surface of the connecting round rod 51 and near the torsion spring 53 through a bracket. One end of the swing plate 52 away from the connecting round rod 51 is fixedly installed with a crescent block 55. When the conveyor belt 34 drives the semi-circular block 36 to operate, through the continuous movement of the semi-circular block 36, by using the contact between the semi-circular block 36 and the roller 54, as the semi-circular block 36 moves continuously, the roller 54 receives an upward driving force, and under the rotational connection of the connecting round rod 51, the swing plate 52 can be driven to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, and the torsion spring 53 is compressed by the torque force, so as to drive the crescent block 55 to move upward in the direction away from the inner wall of the conveyor belt 34. Along with the continuous movement of the semi-circular block 36, by using the separation of the semi-circular block 36 from the roller 54, and under the elastic force provided by the torsion spring 53, the swing plate 52 drives the crescent block 55 to rotate counterclockwise to reset, and then by knocking on the conveyor belt 34, the recycled ink cartridges being conveyed are impacted to generate vibrations, so that the sundries attached inside the recycled ink cartridges fall off.

[0066] There are two torsion springs 53, and the two torsion springs 53 are symmetrically installed along the swing plate 52. The top of the crescent block 55 is an arc surface, and the top of the crescent block 55 fits with the top of the inner wall of the conveyor belt 34.

[0067] During use, an appropriate amount of cleaning liquid is injected into the cleaning box 1, and the recycled ink cartridges to be cleaned are placed from the feed port 2 to the position of the clamping component 37 inside the cleaning box 1. The recycled ink cartridges are located between two symmetrically arranged clamping plates 374, and the recycled ink cartridges are pressed downward, and the right-angle elastic piece 373 provides elastic force to clamp the recycled ink cartridges. Then the stepping motor 33 is started to work. The output end of the stepping motor 33 drives the driving roller 31 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 34 runs, and the clamping component 37 as a whole clamps the recycled ink cartridges to convey the recycled ink cartridges, thereby realizing the function of automatic feeding. And by controlling the running speed of the conveyor belt 34, the recycled ink cartridges are placed one by one on the clamping component 37 at the top of the conveyor belt 34, which helps with subsequent batch conveying;

[0068] The conveyor belt 34 drives the semi-circular block 36 to move. By making the position of the semi-circular block 36 correspond to the position of the card slot 35, the moving semi-circular block 36 is embedded into the card slot 35, so that the conveyor belt 34 runs synchronously with the driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32, ensuring accurate material transportation. The moving semi-circular block 36 exerts an upward driving force on the roller 54, driving the swing plate 52 to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, thereby driving the crescent block 55 to move towards the top direction away from the inner wall of the conveyor belt 34. Along with the separation of the semi-circular block 36 from the roller 54, under the elastic force provided by the torsion spring 53, by knocking on the conveyor belt 34, the conveyed recycled ink cartridges are impacted and vibrated, causing the sundries attached inside the recycled ink cartridges to fall off;

[0069] By conveying the recycled ink cartridges directly above the brushing assembly 46, the stepping motor 33 is paused to work. The clamping assembly 37 with a vacant top on the conveyor belt 34 is replenished with recycled ink cartridges, and the air cylinder 42 is turned on to work. By the elongation of the output end of the air cylinder 42, the transmission 43 is pushed upward to move, timely adjusting the overall position of the brushing assembly 46. The servo motor 45 is turned on to work, and under the power output of the transmission 43, the cylinder 461 rotates, driving the spray head 462 and the brush 463 to rotate together. The cleaning liquid at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 is output through the pump body 41. The cleaning liquid enters the cylinder 461 and sprays out from the spray head 462 into the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge to clean the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge, and the sundries are brushed off by the rotating brush 463;

[0070] After the first batch of recycled ink cartridges is cleaned, the output end of the air cylinder 42 contracts again. Driven by the transmission 43, the top of the cylinder 461 is removed from the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridge, and the stepping motor 33 is turned on again to work, conveying the next batch of recycled ink cartridges to be cleaned, and repeating the upward movement for batch cleaning;

[0071] As the conveyor belt 34 keeps running, at this time, the recycled ink cartridges with the openings facing down after cleaning can make the cleaning liquid attached to the inner cavity of the recycled ink cartridges fall off automatically, and the cleaning liquid is recycled.
