Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pipe cleaning, and in particular to an aluminum pipe cleaning device and method. Background Art

[0002] During the production and processing of round aluminum tubes, various stains such as metal shavings, oil stains, and dust often remain on the inner and outer surfaces. These stains not only affect the appearance quality of the aluminum tubes, but may also have adverse effects on their mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Therefore, cleaning of aluminum tubes has become an indispensable part of the aluminum processing process.

[0003] Ultrasonic cleaning uses ultrasound to disperse, emulsify, and remove dirt layers, achieving the cleaning purpose. This technique is used in the cleaning process of round aluminum tubes. When cleaning large quantities of aluminum tubes in an ultrasonic cleaning tank, there is a problem with the difficulty in removing dirt.

[0004] Referring to the Chinese patent application document with publication number CN119098450A and publication date December 10, 2024, entitled "An ultrasonic cleaning device for cleaning the surface of an aluminum tube", the device includes a cleaning tank and a lifting mechanism installed inside the cleaning tank. The lifting mechanism is used to tilt the aluminum tube, thereby accelerating the shedding of stains and promoting the detached stains deposited at the bottom of the aluminum tube to move to the lower end of the aluminum tube, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the aluminum tube.

[0005] Referring to the above technical solution, the efficiency of stain discharge is improved by tilting one end of the circular aluminum tube. Since the aluminum tubes are often in a stacked state, cavities are formed between adjacent aluminum tubes, and the gaps between the aluminum tubes are small. When the aluminum tubes are long, the cavity formed is long, and the stains need to move from one end of the cavity to the other, resulting in a low stain discharge rate and a less than ideal cleaning effect. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present application provides an aluminum tube cleaning device and method, which aims to solve the problem of low stain discharge rate between adjacent aluminum tubes and unsatisfactory cleaning effect.

[0007] To solve the above technical problems, in a first aspect, the present application provides an aluminum tube cleaning device, comprising an ultrasonic cleaning box, two linear actuators 1 arranged on the right side of the ultrasonic cleaning box, and two linear actuators 2 arranged on the left side of the ultrasonic cleaning box;

[0008] A crossbeam is connected between the linear drive 1 and the linear drive 2 corresponding to the left and right directions. The outer surface of the crossbeam is provided with a connecting plate in a linear array. The lower end of the connecting plate is ball-jointed with the crossbar 1 on the same side. The crossbar 1 is set through one end of the telescopic rod in the form of a ball joint. L-shaped limit plates are provided on both sides of the ultrasonic cleaning box. A crossbar 2 is provided between the two L-shaped limit plates. The L-shaped limit plates are used to limit the height of the crossbar 2. The crossbar 2 is passed through the other end of the telescopic rod in the form of a ball joint. The telescopic rods on both sides of the crossbar 2 are distributed in an "eight" shape.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the crossbeam is lifted and one end of the telescopic rod on one side is lifted through the connecting plate and the crossbar, so that the aluminum tube is flipped up and down. During the flipping process, the stains between adjacent aluminum tubes are easily discharged from the gaps, while ensuring the consistency of the cleaning effect of the aluminum tube.

[0010] Optionally, one end of the crossbeam is hinged to the executive end of linear driver one, the slot one provided at the other end of the crossbeam is cooperated with the executive end of linear driver two, the L-shaped limit plate is vertically slidably arranged with the ultrasonic cleaning box, the upper end of the vertical part of the L-shaped limit plate is hinged to the horizontal part of the L-shaped limit plate, and the third pin shaft connected to the lower end of the vertical part of the L-shaped limit plate is cooperated with the slot two provided at the second end of the crossbar.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, linear drive 1 and linear drive 2 are arranged in cooperation to lift one end of the beam, thereby lifting one end of the aluminum tube. The tilting of one end of the aluminum tube accelerates the discharge of stains inside the aluminum tube and the stains inside the cavity formed by the adjacent aluminum tubes.

[0012] Optionally, the upper ends of the connecting plates are hingedly connected to U-shaped connector 1 through a first pin shaft, the upper ends of the U-shaped connector 1 are hingedly connected to U-shaped connector 2 through a second pin shaft, the first pin shaft and the second pin shaft are perpendicular to each other, the U-shaped connector 2 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the beam on the same side, the front and rear inner walls of the ultrasonic cleaning box are linearly arrayed with wedge plates, the lower ends of the inclined surfaces of the wedge plates are inclined outward, and the lower ends of the connecting plates are provided with protrusions, and the ends of the protrusions abut against the inclined surfaces of adjacent wedge plates.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the connecting plate is lifted, the protrusion moves toward the middle of the ultrasonic cleaning box under the guidance of the inclined surface of the wedge plate, so that the aluminum tubes are gathered together on the lifted side and dispersed on the other side, thereby increasing the gap between the aluminum tubes and facilitating the discharge of stains from the cavity between the aluminum tubes after cleaning.

[0014] Optionally, linear drivers three are provided on both the left and right sides of the ultrasonic cleaning box, and the actuators of the two linear drivers three are fixedly connected to the horizontal part of the L-shaped limiting plate on the same side.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the L-shaped limit plate is driven up and down by the linear drive three times to meet the use requirements of tilting one end of the beam.

[0016] Optionally, it further includes reinforcing rods, which are respectively connected to the corresponding connecting plates in the transverse direction with ball joints.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the structural strength of the basket is improved.

[0018] Optionally, the linear drive 1, the linear drive 2 and the linear drive 3 are all oil cylinders.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the load capacity and support stability are improved.

[0020] Optionally, a circulation pump is provided on one side of the ultrasonic cleaning box, the water inlet pipe end of the circulation pump is connected to the lower end of one side of the ultrasonic cleaning box, the water outlet pipe end of the circulation pump is arranged above the other side of the ultrasonic cleaning box, and the water outlet pipe end of the circulation pump is provided with a nozzle in a linear array.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the circulation pump continuously draws cleaning liquid from the bottom of one side of the ultrasonic cleaning box and flows out from the upper end of the other side of the ultrasonic cleaning box, so that the cleaning liquid inside the ultrasonic cleaning box circulates, promoting the discharge of stains inside and between the aluminum tubes. In addition, the cleaning liquid is sprayed from the nozzle so that the cleaning liquid can directly flow into the inside of the aluminum tube and between the gaps of the aluminum tubes when one end of the aluminum tube is lifted, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0022] In a second aspect, the present application provides an aluminum tube cleaning method, which is applied to the aluminum tube cleaning device described in the first aspect. The cleaning method comprises:

[0023] In step S1, the operator starts the ultrasonic cleaning box to ultrasonically clean the aluminum tube. The linear actuators 1 and 2 corresponding to the left and right directions are activated to lift the crossbeam on one side. The lifted crossbeam drives the crossbar 1 to lift via the connecting plate. The crossbar 1 lifts the outer end of the telescopic rod, causing the aluminum tube on the lifted side to roll to the upper surface of the aluminum tube on the other side, thereby flipping the aluminum tube up and down.

[0024] S2, synchronously start the two linear actuators 2 and the linear actuator 3 on the left. The two linear actuators 2 drive the left end of the crossbeam to tilt upward. The linear actuator 3 on the left drives the left end of the crossbeam 2 to lift upward through the L-shaped limit plate, making the height of the telescopic rod on the left higher than the height of the telescopic rod on the right, lifting one end of the stacked aluminum tubes upward;

[0025] S3, the raised block on the side being lifted moves inward under the guiding action of the inclined surface of the wedge plate, so that the stacked aluminum tubes are gathered together at one end and dispersed at the other end, thereby increasing the gap between the aluminum tubes.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the stains between adjacent aluminum tubes are discharged from the gaps during the up and down flipping of the aluminum tubes, thereby improving the efficiency of stain discharge. When one end of the stacked aluminum tubes is lifted, the aluminum tubes are tilted, thereby accelerating the discharge of stains inside the aluminum tubes. At the same time, the gaps between the aluminum tubes are enlarged by gathering one end of the stacked aluminum tubes and dispersing the other end, thereby improving the efficiency of stain discharge inside the cavity between the aluminum tubes.

[0027] In summary, compared with the prior art, this application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0028] 1. Start the linear actuator 1 and linear actuator 2 on the rear side. The rear crossbeam is lifted and drives one end of the telescopic rod to lift through the connecting plate and crossbar 1. The aluminum tube at the bottom of the rear side is flipped to the upper layer of the aluminum tube at the front side, and the aluminum tube is flipped up and down. During the flipping process, the stains between adjacent aluminum tubes are easily discharged from the gaps, thereby improving the efficiency of stain discharge. At the same time, the aluminum tubes at different heights are evenly subjected to ultrasonic action, ensuring the consistency of the aluminum tube cleaning effect.

[0029] 2. Synchronously start the two linear actuators 2 and the linear actuator 3 on the left. The left ends of the two beams are lifted. The beams sequentially drive the left end of the crossbar 1 to lift through the U-shaped connector 2, the U-shaped connector 1 and the connecting plate. At the same time, the linear actuator 3 on the left drives the left end of the crossbar 2 to lift through the L-shaped limit plate, so that the telescopic rod lifts the left end of the aluminum tube. The left end of the aluminum tube tilts to accelerate the discharge of stains inside the aluminum tube.

[0030] 3. When the connecting plate is lifted, the protrusion moves toward the middle of the ultrasonic cleaning box under the guidance of the inclined surface of the wedge plate, so that the aluminum tubes on the lifted side gather together and the other sides disperse, thereby increasing the gap between the aluminum tubes and further improving the rate of discharge of stains from the cavities between the aluminum tubes after cleaning.

[0031] 4. Start the circulation pump to circulate the cleaning liquid inside the ultrasonic cleaning box to promote the discharge of stains inside and between the aluminum tubes. In addition, the cleaning liquid is sprayed out from the nozzle so that when one end of the aluminum tube is lifted, the cleaning liquid can directly flow into the inside of the aluminum tube and the gap between the aluminum tubes, flushing out the stains inside and between the aluminum tubes and improving the cleaning effect.

[0038] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the following will be combined with the embodiments of the present application Figure 1-Figure 5 , clearly and completely describes the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the described embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] In a first aspect, the present application provides an aluminum tube cleaning device, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0040] Reference Figure 1 This embodiment provides an aluminum tube cleaning device, comprising an ultrasonic cleaning tank 1, a linear actuator 2, a linear actuator 3, and a basket 4. The ultrasonic cleaning tank 1 utilizes the cavitation effect of ultrasonic waves in a liquid, generating countless tiny bubbles through high-frequency vibration. These bubbles burst upon contact with the aluminum tube surface, creating an impact force to remove stains from the tube surface. Two linear actuators 2 are located on the left side of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 1, while two linear actuators 2 are located on the right side of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 1. These linear actuators 2 and 3 cooperate to drive one side of the basket 4 upward, causing the bottom side of the basket 4 to tilt.

[0041] Among them, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5The basket 4 includes a crossbeam 41, a connecting plate 42, a crossbar 1 43, a crossbar 2 44, a telescopic rod 45 and an L-shaped limit plate 46. There are two crossbeams 41, and the right ends of both are hinged to the upper ends of the adjacent linear actuators 2. The inner walls of the slots 1 411 provided at the left ends of the two crossbeams 41 are slidably and rotatably connected to the upper ends of the adjacent linear actuators 2 3; the outer surfaces of the two crossbeams 41 are linearly arrayed with U-shaped connectors 2 422, and the lower ends of the U-shaped connectors 2 422 are hinged to U-shaped connectors 1 421 through second pins. There are multiple connecting plates 42, and the upper ends of the connecting plates 42 are hinged to the lower ends of the vertically corresponding U-shaped connectors 1 421 through first pins. The first pins and the second pins are perpendicular to each other (refer to Figure 4 ), the U-shaped connector 2 422 and the vertically corresponding U-shaped connector 1 421 are hinged so that the connecting plate 42 can maintain a vertical state, reducing the torsion of the connecting plate 42 when one end of the aluminum tube is lifted. The U-shaped connector 1 421 and the vertically corresponding connecting plates 42 are hinged so that the lifting process of one end of the aluminum tube is gathered together. The crossbar 1 43 has two ball joints and both are connected to the lower end of the connecting plate 42 on the same side. The crossbar 1 43 is passed through one end of the telescopic rod 45 on the same side in a ball joint manner; the left side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 Linear actuators 3 5 are fixedly installed on both sides of the right side. The actuators of linear actuators 3 5 are fixedly connected to the horizontal part of the L-shaped limit plate 46 on the same side. A cross bar 2 44 is provided between the two L-shaped limit plates 46. The cross bar 2 44 passes through the other end of the telescopic rod 45 in the form of a ball joint. The L-shaped limit plate 46 is used to limit the height of the cross bar 2 44. The cross bar 2 44 is pulled higher than the two cross bars 1 43 by the L-shaped limit plate 46, and the telescopic rods 45 on both sides of the cross bar 2 44 are kept in an "eight" shape (refer to Figure 3 ), the "eight"-shaped structure makes it easy to flip the aluminum tube at the bottom to the upper layer, thereby improving the flipping effect of the aluminum tube.

[0042] Start the linear actuator 1 2 and the linear actuator 2 3 on the rear side, and the crossbar 2 44 is stationary in the vertical direction under the limiting action of the two L-shaped limiting plates 46. The linear actuator 1 2 and the linear actuator 2 3 on the rear side drive the crossbeam 41 on the rear side to lift. The crossbeam 41 on the rear side drives the outer end of the telescopic rod 45 to lift through the connecting plate 42 and the crossbar 1 43. When the crossbar 1 43 is lifted, the telescopic rod 45 can adapt to the change in the distance between the crossbar 1 43 and the crossbar 2 44, so that the upper surface of the telescopic rod 45 on the rear side of the crossbar 2 44 and the upper surface of the telescopic rod 45 on the front side of the crossbar 2 44 are coplanar, and the aluminum tube at the bottom of the rear side is flipped to the upper layer of the aluminum tube at the front side. Conversely, start the linear actuator 1 2 and the linear actuator 2 3 on the front side, so that the aluminum tube at the bottom of the front side is flipped to the upper layer of the aluminum tube at the rear side. The aluminum tubes on the upper layer are flipped up and down, and the stains between the adjacent aluminum tubes are discharged from the gaps during the flipping process. In addition, since the ultrasonic wave is transmitted upward from the bottom of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1, the aluminum tubes on the bottom layer are directly affected by the ultrasonic wave emitted by the transducer, and the ultrasonic wave energy is relatively concentrated, and the cleaning effect such as the cavitation effect produced is stronger, while the aluminum tubes on the top layer are far away from the transducer, and the ultrasonic wave will have energy loss in the process of upward propagation. For example, when passing through the bottom and middle aluminum tubes, part of the energy will be absorbed, scattered, etc., and the energy will be weakened when reaching the top aluminum tube, resulting in inconsistent cleaning effects on the top and bottom aluminum tubes. By flipping the aluminum tubes up and down, the aluminum tubes can be evenly acted upon by the ultrasonic wave, thereby ensuring the consistency of the cleaning effect on the aluminum tubes.

[0043] Among them, reference Figure 2 The upper end of the vertical part of the L-shaped limiting plate 46 is hinged to the horizontal part of the L-shaped limiting plate 46, and the third pin connected to the lower end of the vertical part of the L-shaped limiting plate 46 is matched with the slot 2 set at the end of the second cross bar 44.

[0044] When the left end of the stacked aluminum tube needs to be lifted upward, the two linear actuators 2 3 and the linear actuator 3 5 on the left are started synchronously. The upper ends of the two linear actuators 2 3 slide inside the slot 1 411, driving the left ends of the two cross beams 41 to be lifted. The cross beam 41 drives the left end of the cross bar 1 43 to be lifted in turn through the U-shaped connector 2 422, the U-shaped connector 1 421 and the connecting plate 42. At the same time, the linear actuator 3 5 on the left drives the left end of the cross bar 2 44 to be lifted synchronously through the L-shaped limit plate 46. The third pin connected to the lower end of the vertical part of the L-shaped limit plate 46 is slidably and rotatably connected to the slot 2 set at the end of the cross bar 2 44, so that the telescopic rod 45 lifts the left end of the aluminum tube. The left end of the aluminum tube is tilted to accelerate the discharge of stains inside the aluminum tube.

[0045] In order to improve the structural strength of the basket 4, reinforcing rods 6 are spherically jointed between the corresponding connecting plates 42 in the transverse direction.

[0046] Reference Figure 3In order to further increase the rate of discharge of stains from the cavities between the aluminum tubes after cleaning, the front and rear inner walls of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 are linearly arrayed with wedge plates 10. The lower ends of the inclined surfaces of the wedge plates 10 are inclined outward, and the lower ends of the connecting plates 42 are provided with protrusions 11. The ends of the protrusions 11 abut against the inclined surfaces of adjacent wedge plates 10. When the connecting plates 42 are lifted, the protrusions 11 move toward the middle of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 under the guidance of the inclined surfaces of the wedge plates 10, so that the lifted side of the aluminum tubes gathers together and the other sides of the aluminum tubes disperse, thereby increasing the gap between the aluminum tubes.

[0047] It is worth mentioning that the linear actuator 1 2 , the linear actuator 2 3 and the linear actuator 3 5 are all oil cylinders, which are hydraulically driven and can withstand greater working pressure.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 , which also includes a circulation pump 7, the end of the water inlet pipe 8 of the circulation pump 7 is connected to the lower end of one side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1, and the end of the water outlet pipe 9 of the circulation pump 7 is arranged above the other side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1. The end of the water outlet pipe 9 of the circulation pump 7 is provided with a nozzle in a linear array. When the circulation pump 7 is started, the circulation pump 7 continuously extracts cleaning liquid from the bottom of one side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 and flows out from the upper end of the other side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1, so that the cleaning liquid inside the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 circulates, promoting the discharge of stains inside and between the aluminum tubes. In addition, the cleaning liquid is sprayed from the nozzle so that the cleaning liquid directly flows into the inside of the aluminum tube and between the gaps of the aluminum tubes when one end of the aluminum tube is lifted, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0049] The implementation principle of the aluminum tube cleaning device in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0050] Start the circulation pump 7, which continuously draws cleaning liquid from the bottom of one side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 and flows out from the upper end of the other side of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1, so that the cleaning liquid inside the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 circulates, promoting the discharge of stains inside and between the aluminum tubes. Start the linear actuator 1 2 and the linear actuator 2 3 on the rear side, and the rear crossbeam 41 drives the outer end of the telescopic rod 45 to rise through the connecting plate 42 and the crossbar 1 43, so that the aluminum tube above the telescopic rod 45 on the rear side is flipped to the upper layer of the aluminum tube on the front side. Conversely, start the linear actuator 1 2 and the linear actuator 2 3 on the front side, so that the aluminum tube above the telescopic rod 45 on the front side is flipped to the rear side, so that the stains between the aluminum tubes are discharged from the gaps during the flipping of the aluminum tubes, thereby improving the efficiency of stain discharge. At the same time, the aluminum tubes can be thoroughly cleaned by changing the upper and lower positions of the aluminum tubes.

[0051] The linear actuator 2 3 and the linear actuator 3 5 on the left are started synchronously. The two linear actuators 2 3 drive the left end of the crossbeam 41 to lift, and the left end of the crossbar 1 43 is lifted. At the same time, the linear actuator 3 5 on the left drives the left end of the crossbar 2 44 to lift synchronously, so that the telescopic rod 45 lifts the left end of the aluminum tube. The tilting of the left end of the aluminum tube accelerates the discharge of stains inside the aluminum tube. When the connecting plate 42 lifts and drives the protrusion 11 to lift, the protrusion 11 moves toward the inside of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 under the guidance of the inclined surface of the wedge plate 10. The connecting plate 42 squeezes the lifted end of the aluminum tube to make them gather together, and the other sides of the aluminum tubes are dispersed to increase the gap between the aluminum tubes, so that the stains are discharged from the cavity between the aluminum tubes after cleaning.

[0052] In addition, the cleaning liquid is sprayed out from the nozzle so that when one end of the aluminum tube is lifted, the cleaning liquid directly flows into the inside of the aluminum tube and between the gaps of the aluminum tube, thereby increasing the flow speed of the cleaning liquid and improving the cleaning effect.

[0053] In a second aspect, the present application provides an aluminum tube cleaning method, which is applied to an aluminum tube cleaning device according to the first aspect. The cleaning method comprises:

[0054] In step S1, the operator starts the ultrasonic cleaning chamber 1 to ultrasonically clean the aluminum tube. The linear actuators 1 and 2 corresponding to the left and right directions are activated to lift the crossbeam 41 on one side. The lifted crossbeam 41 drives the crossbar 1 43 to lift via the connecting plate 42. The crossbar 1 43 lifts the outer end of the telescopic rod 45, causing the aluminum tube on the lifted side to roll to the upper surface of the aluminum tube on the other side, flipping the aluminum tube up and down, accelerating the discharge of dirt between the aluminum tubes and ensuring uniform cleaning of aluminum tubes at different heights.

[0055] S2, synchronously start the two linear actuators 2 3 and the left linear actuator 3 5. The two linear actuators 2 3 drive the left end of the crossbeam 41 to tilt upward. The left linear actuator 3 5 drives the left end of the crossbar 2 44 to lift upward via the L-shaped limit plate 46, so that the height of the left telescopic rod 45 is higher than that of the right telescopic rod 45, thereby lifting one end of the stacked aluminum tubes upward.

[0056] S3, the raised block 11 moves inward under the guidance of the inclined surface of the wedge plate 10, so that the stacked aluminum tubes are lifted up to gather together at one end and dispersed at the other end, thereby increasing the gap between the aluminum tubes and improving the rate at which stains are discharged from the cavities between the aluminum tubes.

[0057] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0058] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present application. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present application.
