Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cleaning vehicle-mounted gas cylinders, and in particular to a cleaning line and method for automatically cleaning vehicle-mounted gas cylinders. Background Art
[0002] A gas cylinder is usually installed at the bottom of a transport vehicle or truck. The gas cylinder is used to hold high-pressure natural gas or hydrogen. This gas cylinder is made by mechanical hydraulic stretching. The structure of the gas cylinder is as follows: Figure 1 After the vehicle-mounted gas cylinder is stretched and formed, a large amount of oil stains are attached to the inner wall of the vehicle-mounted gas cylinder. Therefore, after a batch of vehicle-mounted gas cylinders are stretched and formed, the process requires the use of a cleaning fluid to clean the oil stains attached to the inner wall of the cup-shaped body of the vehicle-mounted gas cylinder.
[0003] The method for cleaning vehicle-borne gas cylinders in a certain workshop is: a worker first lifts up a vehicle-borne gas cylinder through a truss hoist located on the top of the workshop, and then transports the vehicle-borne gas cylinder to the top of the cleaning tank through the truss hoist, and then vertically immerses the hoisted vehicle-borne gas cylinder into the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank. After immersion, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank flows into the vehicle-borne gas cylinder from the upper and lower ports of the vehicle-borne gas cylinder, and the cleaning liquid cleans off the oil stains attached to the inner wall of the vehicle-borne gas cylinder. After cleaning for a period of time, the cleaned vehicle-borne gas cylinder is lifted out of the cleaning tank through the truss hoist. After lifting it out, the worker removes the vehicle-borne gas cylinder from the truss hoist; after removal, the worker puts the vehicle-borne gas cylinder into a drying tunnel, and dries the cleaning liquid on the inner wall of the vehicle-borne gas cylinder through the heat in the drying tunnel; repeating the above operation multiple times can continuously clean multiple vehicle-borne gas cylinders.
[0004] However, although the method in the workshop can clean the stretched vehicle-mounted gas cylinder, it still has the following technical defects:
[0005] I. Before cleaning, it is necessary to manually tie up the vehicle-borne gas cylinders through the lifting ropes of the truss hoisting machine, and then the vehicle-borne gas cylinders to be cleaned can be lifted up; after cleaning, it is necessary to manually untie the lifting ropes, which undoubtedly increases the cleaning time of a single vehicle-borne gas cylinder, thereby reducing the cleaning efficiency of the vehicle-borne gas cylinders.
[0006] II. After the vehicle-mounted gas cylinder is cleaned, it is necessary to manually put the cleaned vehicle-mounted gas cylinder into the drying tunnel for drying, and the intermediate turnover process consumes a lot of time, thereby reducing the cleaning efficiency of the subsequent vehicle-mounted gas cylinders.
[0007] III. After the vehicle-borne gas cylinder was cleaned in the cleaning tank, the workers found that there was still oil stain attached to the curved surface 1 located inside the bottle mouth of the vehicle-borne gas cylinder. Therefore, there was a technical defect of incomplete cleaning. For this reason, it could only be cleaned back and forth multiple times, which undoubtedly increased the cleaning time and reduced the cleaning efficiency of the vehicle-borne gas cylinder.
[0008] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cleaning line and method that greatly improves the cleaning efficiency of the vehicle-mounted gas cylinder and can thoroughly clean the oil stains attached to the curved surface of the vehicle-mounted gas cylinder. Summary of the invention

When the piston rod of the horizontal oil cylinder (42) is fully extended, the left end of the curved pipe (43) is just connected to the upper bottle mouth of the vehicle-mounted gas bottle (45); S84, controlling the hot air blower to start, the hot air blower produces a hot air flow, the hot air flow sequentially passes through the hose, the right end of the curved pipe (43), the curved pipe (43), the left end of the curved pipe (43), and finally enters the vehicle-borne gas bottle (45) through the upper bottle opening of the vehicle-borne gas bottle (45), and the hot air flow dries the cleaning liquid attached to the inner wall of the vehicle-borne gas bottle (45). After drying for a period of time, the vehicle-borne gas bottle (45) can be finally dried; S9, output of the dried vehicle-mounted gas cylinder (45), the specific operation steps are: S91, control the piston rod of the horizontal oil cylinder (42) to retract to the right, and then control the piston rod of the lifting oil cylinder (41) to retract downward, so that the bent pipe (43) is reset; S92, controlling the output shaft (12) of the self-locking hydraulic motor (11) to rotate counterclockwise, the output shaft (12) drives the rotating plate (13) to rotate counterclockwise, the rotating plate (13) drives the fixed plate (14) to rotate synchronously, the fixed plate (14) drives the mounting plate (17) to rotate synchronously counterclockwise via the main shaft (16), when the output shaft (12) rotates 90°, the controller controls the self-locking hydraulic motor (11) to turn off, at which time the dried vehicle-mounted gas cylinder (45) is just in a horizontal state; S93, control the servo motor (36) to continue to start, the servo motor (36) drives the screw rod (35) to rotate, the nut (34) continues to move rightward along the screw rod (35), the nut (34) drives the clamping cylinder (9) to move rightward, the clamping cylinder (9) drives the cleaning component (10) to move rightward, the cleaning component (10) drives the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45) to move rightward, and when the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45) moves to the top of the discharge conveyor roller (5), the controller controls the servo motor (36) to turn off; S94, control the piston rod of the clamping oil cylinder (9) to extend downward, the piston rod drives the cleaning assembly (10) to move downward, the two limit seats (21) of the cleaning assembly (10) to move downward, the limit seats (21) drive the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45) to move downward, when the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45) contacts the roller of the discharge conveyor roller (5), control the two piston rods of the double-acting oil cylinder (18) to extend simultaneously, the two piston rods drive the connecting plates (19) connected thereto to move in opposite directions, the two connecting plates (19) drive the clamping rods (20) connected thereto to move in opposite directions, the two clamping rods (20) drive the limit seats (21) connected thereto to move in opposite directions, at which time the two limit seats (21) are separated from the two bottle openings of the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45); S95, when the limit seat (21) is separated from the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45), the piston rod of the clamping oil cylinder (9) is controlled to retract upward, and the piston rod drives the cleaning component (10) to move upward, and the cleaning component (10) moves in a direction away from the vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45); then the discharge conveying roller (5) is controlled to start, and the roller of the discharge conveying roller (5) drives the dried vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45) to be conveyed to the right, thereby conveying the dried vehicle-borne gas cylinder (45) to a designated area; S100, by repeating the operations of steps S1 to S9, a plurality of vehicle-mounted gas cylinders (45) can be cleaned and dried continuously.
