After the entire cleaning process is automatically completed according to the set program, the washing outer cylinder 211 is exited and transported to the drying chamber of the drying outer cylinder 311. To ensure that the workpiece is completely cleaned and dried, the rotating basket can be rotated or swung. After the equipment automatically completes all processes, it automatically transports the washing basket 100 out and descends to the unloading position. After the operator finishes unloading, the start button automatically transports the empty basket to the loading position to complete the entire process.

[0083] The whole machined parts cleaning equipment is a fully enclosed structure. The housing 600 has a detachable inspection door. The appearance is beautiful and elegant. The front and rear door panels are both open and close, and a protection switch is set. When the door is opened, the spraying and rotating movements will stop. An observation and maintenance window is set on the side, and an inspection light is installed in front of the observation window to observe the spraying and drying effects of the workpiece during cleaning. The equipment adopts touch screen and PLC full-automatic control, which is simple to operate, high in production efficiency, and good in drying effect.

[0084] According to another aspect of the present application, an embodiment of the present application also provides a cleaning method. Based on the machined parts cleaning equipment in the above embodiment, the process of the cleaning method is as follows: feeding → spray cleaning + vacuum immersion ultrasonic cleaning → wind cutting → spray rinsing + vacuum immersion ultrasonic rinsing → wind cutting → hot air + vacuum drying → discharging.

[0085] The specific steps include:

[0086] The washing basket 100 containing the workpieces enters the washing carrier 212 in the washing cylinder 210 under the action of the conveying device 500, the washing sealing door 213 is closed, the vacuum device evacuates the inside of the washing outer cylinder 211, and the washing liquid storage tank 220 pumps the washing liquid to the nozzle 215 through the washing liquid delivery pipeline to spray the workpieces in the washing basket 100. When the washing liquid covers the washing basket 100, the spray cleaning is ended, and the ultrasonic vibration rod 251 is started to perform vacuum immersion ultrasonic cleaning. After the cleaning is completed, the washing liquid is discharged into the washing liquid storage tank 220 through the washing liquid reflux pipe 222; then, the compressed air source 240 delivers compressed air to the nozzle 215 through the air delivery pipe 241 to perform the first compressed gas wind shear;

[0087] After the first compressed gas wind shearing is completed, the vacuuming device vacuumizes the cleaning outer cylinder 211, and the rinsing liquid storage tank 230 pumps the rinsing liquid to the nozzle 215 through the rinsing liquid delivery pipeline to spray and rinse the workpieces in the washing basket 100. When the rinsing liquid covers the washing basket 100, the spray rinsing is ended, and the ultrasonic vibration rod 251 is started to perform vacuum immersion ultrasonic rinsing. After the rinsing is completed, the rinsing liquid is discharged into the rinsing liquid storage tank 230 through the rinsing liquid reflux pipe 232; then, the compressed gas source 240 delivers compressed air to the nozzle 215 through the air delivery pipe 241 to perform the second compressed gas wind shearing;

[0088] After the second compressed gas wind shear is completed, the cleaning sealing door 213 is opened, and the washing basket 100 is transported to the drying carrier 312 in the drying cylinder 310 through the conveying device 500, and the drying sealing door 313 is closed, and the hot air circulation system 320 is started to perform hot air circulation and vacuum drying. After the drying is completed, the drying sealing door 313 is opened, and the washing basket 100 is output through the conveying device 500;

[0089] Among them, during the processes of spray cleaning, vacuum immersion ultrasonic cleaning, the first compressed gas wind cutting, spray rinsing, vacuum immersion ultrasonic rinsing and the second compressed gas wind cutting, the first motor 214 drives the cleaning carrier 212 to drive the washing basket 100 to rotate or swing; during the hot air circulation and vacuum drying process, the second motor 314 drives the drying carrier 312 to drive the washing basket 100 to rotate or swing.

[0090] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0091] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the attached claims.
