Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of roadway palletizing machine technology, and in particular to a palletizing device for steel mesh storage. Background Technology
[0002] When steel mesh is received into the warehouse, stacker cranes are used. As a key piece of equipment in automated warehousing and logistics systems, stacker cranes are mainly used for the automatic stacking, storage, retrieval, and handling of goods within the warehouse. They offer advantages such as high efficiency, energy saving, and reduced manual labor intensity. Stacker cranes use rail or wireless guidance systems for precise positioning and navigation within the aisles. Combined with sensor detection of cargo information, and driven by instructions from the warehouse management system, they automatically transport and stack goods to designated storage locations, or retrieve them from storage locations and place them on conveyor lines, thus achieving automated warehouse storage and retrieval.
[0003] However, existing stacker cranes for aisle tunnels have the following drawbacks:
[0004] (1) Since warehouses are generally large and difficult to clean, the tracks of the stacker cranes in aisle areas will be covered with waste particles, dust, etc., which will cause uneven track surfaces, increase friction, affect the smooth operation of the stacker crane, easily cause track wear or abnormal noise, and may also lead to inaccurate movement, jamming or even equipment failure, affecting work efficiency and safety, and increasing maintenance costs. Therefore, regular cleaning of the tracks is crucial. However, existing stacker cranes in aisle areas generally use manual cleaning. Manual cleaning requires stopping the machine, which reduces the continuity of work and has low cleaning efficiency. It is impossible to achieve automated cleaning by utilizing the dynamic potential energy of the slide when it moves horizontally. As a result, existing stacker cranes in aisle areas cannot clean automatically and cannot make reasonable use of the dynamic potential energy of the slide, resulting in a waste of potential energy.
[0005] (2) When existing stacker cranes in roadways are in operation, their internal components, including but not limited to motors, electronic components in the control box, and moving parts such as slides and guide rails, inevitably generate heat during relative movement. This heat manifests as "waste heat" that is not effectively utilized during energy conversion (specifically, some resources in the "waste heat," such as water vapor, are wasted). Existing systems maintain the system within a safe temperature range by installing additional heat dissipation structures, such as forced convection cooling devices (cooling fans) and optimized heat conduction path designs (heat dissipation holes, heat sinks), through active or passive heat dissipation. This significantly increases the equipment's material costs, manufacturing costs (including processing and assembly time), operating energy consumption, and maintenance costs (fan lifespan, dust cleaning, etc.), and fails to make reasonable use of the "waste heat." Summary of the Invention

[0012] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the kinetic energy utilization structure includes a hollow plate inside a horizontal slide and a linear generator installed at the bottom of the base. A first threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the hollow plate and a first threaded block is slidably connected thereto. A support frame is fixed to one side of the first threaded block. A cleaning brush is slidably connected inside the support frame. A support block is fixed to the inner wall of the support frame. A first spring is fixed to the top of the support block. The top of the first spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning brush. A horizontal plate is fixed to the top of the cleaning brush. An inclined surface is provided at one end of the horizontal slide. One end of the hollow plate passes through the horizontal slide and is fixedly connected to one end of the wedge block.

[0013] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a support base is fixed to the bottom of the horizontal slide, and a second threaded block is slidably connected to the support base and a second threaded rod is rotatably connected to it. A second motor is installed at one end of the support base, and the second threaded rod passes through the second threaded block and is rotatably connected to it.

An atomizing nozzle is installed outside the horizontal slide, and a water pump is connected to the atomizing nozzle through a second drain pipe.
[0014] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the kinetic energy utilization structure further includes a cleaning unit, the cleaning unit including a support plate fixed to one side of the support frame, the support plate being slidably connected to a movable rod, the two ends of the movable rod being respectively fixed with a wedge block and a long strip plate, one side of the long strip plate being fixed with a hook, the support frame and the wedge block being connected by a second spring, and a second suction nozzle being installed inside the horizontal slide seat through a support column, the second suction nozzle being connected to a vacuum cleaner through a second suction tube.
[0015] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the vertical slide is provided with a material picking plate.
[0016] The present invention provides a warehousing and stacking device for steel mesh, which has the following advantages:
[0017] 1. The linear generator generates electricity by utilizing the kinetic energy of the palletizer slide working horizontally. During self-cleaning, the support frame extends from the horizontal slide, and the movement of the horizontal slide moves the cleaning brush to clean the base and track. The cleaned impurities are sucked into the vacuum cleaner through the first suction nozzle and the first suction tube to collect the impurities. The mist sprayed by the atomizing nozzle can reduce the floating of dust or fine particulate impurities during cleaning. Simultaneously, the movement of the second threaded block pulls the baffle downwards. At this time, the baffle presses against the wedge block through its up-and-down movement, but does not detach from the wedge block's surface. After being pressed, the wedge block moves via the movable rod, carrying the long plate and hook, stretching the second spring. The hook moves forward, pushing open the brush bristles. The baffle lifts slightly, causing the second spring to return the hook to its original position. As the hook returns to its original position, it pulls the brush bristles backward. These two actions—pushing and pulling the brush bristles—shake off impurities left on the brush bristles during track cleaning, preventing them from falling onto the track during the next cleaning. The shaken-off impurities are then sucked into the vacuum cleaner through the second suction nozzle and suction tube. In summary, the cleaning brush can clean the track and also self-clean the bottom bristles after returning to the horizontal slide.
[0018] 2. When the palletizer moves horizontally or vertically, it generates heat through friction with the rails and columns. This heat is transferred to the hollow base and columns via metal heat-conducting rods. Then, the exhaust fan starts, simultaneously extracting heat from the control box, base, and columns. The heat from the base enters the hollow tube through pipe number one, the heat from the columns enters the hollow tube through pipe number two, and the heat from the control box enters the hollow tube through the outer conical opening. This heat extraction achieves cooling and heat dissipation. The condensing plates inside the second guide tube cool the entire guide tube. When the gas enters from the outer conical opening, the spiral groove design allows for rapid gas flow, resulting in high-speed collision and rapid rotation with the cooled inner wall of the second guide tube. This ensures full contact between the gas and the inner wall of the second guide tube, improving the condensation effect. Furthermore, the array of guide grooves increases the contact area between the gas and the inner wall of the second guide tube, further enhancing the condensation effect. Furthermore, due to the special shape of the conical sleeve, the gas exiting from the first guide tube is separated and blown towards the inner wall of the second guide tube, preventing the gas from accumulating in the middle of the second guide tube. This accelerates the gas cooling efficiency and shortens the time for water droplet formation. As the gas containing moisture or water vapor passes through the second guide tube, its temperature decreases. By lowering the gas temperature, the moisture or water vapor in the gas condenses into liquid water on the inner wall of the second guide tube. The condensed liquid water is then collected in a water collection tank through a drain pipe for later use, thus realizing the utilization of moisture or water vapor in the "waste heat." In summary, this method achieves both cooling and utilization of "waste heat."
[0019] 3. When the exhaust fan suddenly stops or reverses due to an abnormality, the gas passing through the hollow tube will flow in the opposite direction, resulting in a reduction in the gas condensation effect. This design uses a tapered structure at the inner cone opening to force the airflow to compress and accelerate through a decreasing cross-sectional area. According to Bernoulli's principle, the increase in airflow velocity leads to a decrease in static pressure, thus forming a local low-pressure zone in the transition area between the cone and the first guide tube. The annular space of the baffle groove generates reverse resistance through the vortex effect. When the airflow attempts to flow backward, it will be blocked by the turbulence in the baffle groove and redirected to the direction of the inner cone opening. This combination of "Venturi effect + vortex damping" structure ensures the smooth flow of hot air in the forward direction while effectively suppressing the reverse flow of gas through physical barriers and pressure differences.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances. The following describes embodiments of the invention based on its overall structure.
[0043] A steel mesh palletizing device includes: a base 11, a column 12, a horizontal slide 13, a vertical slide 14, a track 15, and a control box 16. The track 15 is installed on the top of the base 11, the horizontal slide 13 is slidably connected to the track 15, the column 12 is fixed on the top of the horizontal slide 13, the vertical slide 14 is slidably connected to the column 12, the control box 16 is installed on one side of the bottom of the base 11, the vertical slide 14 is provided with a material picking plate 17, and the palletizing device is provided with a waste heat treatment structure and a kinetic energy utilization structure. The waste heat treatment structure is used to utilize the heat generated during the operation of the palletizing device and achieve cooling through heat conversion. The kinetic energy utilization structure uses the kinetic energy of the horizontal slide 13 during movement to achieve automated cleaning of the track 15.
[0044] Furthermore, the waste heat treatment structure includes a hollow disk 201 embedded inside the base 11. An exhaust fan 202 is installed inside the hollow disk 201. One end of the hollow disk 201 is connected to a hollow tube 203, and one end of the hollow tube 203 is located inside the control box 16. Both the base 11 and the column 12 are hollow designs, and heat-conducting rods 204 are provided on the base 11 and the column 12. The heat-conducting rods 204 extend into the interior of the base 11 and the column 12 and are flush with the surfaces of the base 11 and the column 12, facilitating the movement of the horizontal slide 13 and the vertical slide 14. The base 11 is connected to a first pipe 205, and the column 12 is connected to a stretchable second pipe 205. 6. Pipeline 205 and Pipeline 206 are both connected to the hollow tube 203. When the palletizer moves horizontally or vertically, it will generate heat through friction with the track 15 and column 12. The heat generated is transferred to the interior of the hollow base 11 and column 12 through the metal heat-conducting rod 204. Then, the exhaust fan 202 is started to simultaneously extract the heat from the control box 16, base 11 and column 12. The heat in the base 11 enters the hollow tube 203 through Pipeline 205, the heat in the column 12 enters the hollow tube 203 through Pipeline 206, and the heat in the control box 16 enters the hollow tube 203 through the outer conical opening 209. The purpose of cooling and heat dissipation is achieved by extracting heat.
[0045] Next, a first guide tube 207 is installed at the end of the hollow tube 203 near the control box 16. The first guide tube 207 contains a hollow cone 208, with an outer cone 209 and an inner cone 210 at its two ends. A spiral groove 211 is provided on the inner wall of the cone 208, forming a flow-blocking groove 212 between the cone 208 and the first guide tube 207. A second guide tube 213 is installed on one side of the hollow tube 203 near the first guide tube 207. A guide groove 214 is provided on the inner wall of the second guide tube 213, and a hollow groove 215 is provided on its wall. A condenser fin 216 is installed inside the hollow groove 215. Two pairs of... The support rods 217 are supported, and a conical sleeve 218 is fixed on one side of each support rod 217. One end of the conical sleeve 218 is located inside the inner conical opening 210, and the other end is located inside the second guide tube 213. The condenser 216 installed inside the second guide tube 213 cools the entire second guide tube 213. When the gas enters from the outer conical opening 209, the design of the spiral groove 211 allows the gas to flow rapidly and collide with the cooled inner wall of the second guide tube 213 at high speed and rotate rapidly, so that it can fully contact the inner wall of the second guide tube 213 to improve the condensation effect. Furthermore, due to the array of guide grooves 214, the contact area between the gas and the inner wall of the second guide tube 213 is increased, further improving the condensation effect. Furthermore, due to the special shape of the conical sleeve 218, the gas coming out of the first guide tube 207 is separated and blown toward the inner wall of the second guide tube 213, preventing the gas from accumulating in the middle of the second guide tube 213, thereby accelerating the gas cooling efficiency and shortening the time for water droplet formation. When the gas containing moisture or water vapor passes through the second guide tube 213, the temperature decreases accordingly. By lowering the gas temperature, the moisture or water vapor in the gas condenses into liquid water on the inner wall of the second guide tube 213. The condensed liquid water is then collected into the water collection tank 220 through the water pipe 221 for later use, thus realizing the utilization of moisture or water vapor in the "waste heat".
[0046] As an example, the control box 16 is provided with a cavity 219, and a water collection tank 220 is fixed to the bottom of the base 11. A hollow tube 203 is connected to a water pipe 221 extending into the water collection tank 220. A water pump 222 is installed on one side of the water collection tank 220. The water pump 222 is connected to a suction pipe 223 and a first drain pipe 224. The suction pipe 223 is located inside the water collection tank 220, and the first drain pipe 224 communicates with the cavity 219 of the control box 16. Another set of micro pumps is installed at the bottom of the base 11. The micro pumps draw the heated water in the cavity 219 into the atomizing nozzle 319 through the pipeline and spray water mist to reduce dust around the base 11 (not shown in the diagram). The water pump 222 starts and draws out the condensate in the water collection tank 220 through the suction pipe 223. Water is then injected into the cavity 219 of the control box 16 through the first drain pipe 224. Since the cavity 219 is set on the wall of the control box 16, the two are completely isolated, so there will be no leakage into the control box 16. The condensate in the cavity 219 absorbs the heat from the electronic components in the control box 16, thereby cooling the control box 16. However, the condensate will heat up after absorbing heat. At this time, the micro pump installed at the bottom of the base 11 pumps the heated water in the cavity 219 into the atomizing nozzle 319 through the pipeline and sprays water mist to reduce dust around the base 11 (the micro pump and pipeline are not shown in the diagram). This not only drains the heated water properly, but also reduces dust around the base 11 and improves the quality of the warehouse environment.
[0047] Preferably, the kinetic energy utilization structure includes a hollow plate 301 inside the horizontal slide 13 and a linear generator 321 installed at the bottom of the base 11. A first threaded rod 302 is rotatably connected inside the hollow plate 301 and a first threaded block 303 is slidably connected. A support frame 304 is fixed to one side of the first threaded block 303. A cleaning brush 323 is slidably connected inside the support frame 304. A support block 305 is fixed to the inner wall of the support frame 304. A first spring 306 is fixed to the top of the support block 305. The top of the first spring 306 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning brush 323. A horizontal plate 307 is fixed to the top of the cleaning brush 323. An inclined surface 308 is provided at one end of the horizontal slide 13. One end of the hollow plate 301 passes through the horizontal slide 13 and is fixedly connected to one end of the inclined surface 308. A first motor 309 is installed at one end of the hollow plate 301, and the output end of the first motor 309 is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 302.
[0048] Next, a support base 310 is fixed to the bottom of the horizontal slide 13. The support base 310 is slidably connected to a second threaded block 311 and rotatably connected to a second threaded rod 312. A second motor 313 is installed at one end of the support base 310. The second threaded rod 312 passes through the second threaded block 311 and is rotatably connected to it. One end of the second motor 313 is fixedly connected to the second threaded rod 312. The second threaded block 311 is rotatably connected to a first connecting rod 314. One end of the horizontal slide 13 is rotatably connected to... There is a baffle 315, which is rotatably connected to a second connecting rod 316. One end of the first connecting rod 314 is rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting rod 316. A first suction nozzle 317 is installed at one end of the horizontal slide 13. A vacuum cleaner 318 is installed inside the horizontal slide 13. The first suction nozzle 317 is connected to the vacuum cleaner 318 through a first suction pipe 322. An atomizing nozzle 319 is installed on the outside of the horizontal slide 13. A water pump 222 is connected to the atomizing nozzle 319 through a second drain pipe 320.
[0049] Specifically, motor 309 drives threaded rod 302 to rotate, which in turn moves threaded block 303 and support frame 304 towards vacuum cleaner 318. Then, motor 313 drives threaded rod 312 to rotate, which in turn moves threaded block 311. As threaded block 311 moves, it rotates connecting rod 314, which in turn pulls baffle 315 downwards via connecting rod 316. Baffle 315 then becomes parallel to the bottom surface of horizontal slide 13. This is to allow support frame 304 to extend from base 11. When support frame 304 extends, horizontal plate 307 contacts the inclined surface 308 at the top of horizontal slide 13, and then... The cleaning brush 323 descends and compresses the first spring 306, which facilitates the cleaning brush 323 to return to its original position and rise. By lowering the cleaning brush 323, the bristles can enter the gap between the track 15 and the base 11, which can be effectively cleaned. Furthermore, the descent of the cleaning brush 323 allows the bristles to fully contact the surface of the base 11, improving the cleaning effect. The cleaning brush 323 is moved by the movement of the horizontal slide 13 to achieve the cleaning of the base 11 and the track 15. This process is completed by the force of the horizontal slide 13 moving. The cleaned impurities are sucked into the vacuum cleaner 318 through the first suction nozzle 317 and the first suction tube 322 to achieve the collection of impurities.
[0050] In addition, the kinetic energy utilization structure also includes a cleaning unit, which includes a support plate 401 fixed to one side of the support frame 304. A movable rod 402 is slidably connected to the support plate 401. A wedge block 403 and a long strip plate 404 are fixed to both ends of the movable rod 402, respectively. A hook 405 is fixed to one side of the long strip plate 404. The support frame 304 and the wedge block 403 are connected by a second spring 406. A second suction nozzle 407 is installed inside the horizontal slide block 13 via a support column. The second suction nozzle 407 is connected to the vacuum cleaner 318 via a second suction tube 408. The movement of the second threaded block 311 pulls the baffle 315 downwards (e.g., ...). Figure 10 As shown), at this time, the baffle 315 presses the wedge block 403 by moving up and down, but will not leave the surface of the wedge block 403. After the wedge block 403 is pressed, it moves the long strip plate 404 and the hook 405 through the movable rod 402 and stretches the second spring 406. The hook 405 moves forward and pushes open the brush bristles. The baffle 315 is lifted up part of the way so that the second spring 406 and the hook 405 return to their original positions. When the hook 405 returns to its original position, it pulls the brush bristles backward. Through the two actions of pushing and pulling the brush bristles, the impurities left on the brush bristles when cleaning the track 15 can be shaken off, preventing the impurities on the brush bristles from falling onto the track 15 during the next cleaning. Then, the shaken-off impurities are sucked into the vacuum cleaner 318 through the second suction nozzle 407 and the second suction tube 408.
[0051] It should be explained that since the palletizer of this patent is used in a warehouse, and warehouses are usually enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces with poor air circulation, it is difficult for internal moisture to be discharged. The column 12 and the base 11 have ventilation holes, and air with moisture or water vapor enters the column 12 and the base 11 through the ventilation holes. Then it is drawn into the hollow tube 203 by the exhaust fan 202. In addition, there is a gap at the connection between the control box 16 and the box door, so the control box 16 is not completely sealed. Air with moisture or water vapor will also be introduced. Then this kind of air enters the hollow tube 203 through the outer cone 209. The specially designed condenser fins 216, the guide grooves 214 and the water collection tank 220 in this patent are designed to deal with this air containing water vapor or moisture.
[0052] Working principle: The material picking plates 17 are set on the vertical slide 14. The movement of the material picking plates 17 can be completed by the cooperation of screw drive or electromagnetic slide rail and electromagnetic slider, but not limited to the above two. For picking up the steel mesh, a movable clamping block can be set on the top of the material picking plate 17 to clamp the steel mesh during picking. Then, the horizontal and vertical movement of the aisle palletizer will place the steel mesh on the warehouse shelf (the material picking and placing of the aisle palletizer through the material picking plate 17 is existing technology and will not be described here).
[0053] Through the waste heat treatment structure, the palletizer in the aisle generates heat through friction with the track 15 and column 12 during horizontal or vertical movement. This heat is transferred to the hollow base 11 and column 12 via the metal heat-conducting rod 204. Then, the exhaust fan 202 starts, simultaneously extracting heat from the control box 16, base 11, and column 12. Heat from the base 11 enters the hollow tube 203 through pipe 205, heat from the column 12 enters the hollow tube 203 through pipe 206, and heat from the control box 16 enters the hollow tube 203 through the outer conical opening 209. This heat extraction achieves cooling. It should be noted that since the control box 16 integrates the palletizer's electronic components and control system, it is the primary heat source. The base 11 and column 12 generate relatively less heat and are secondary heat sources. A second cooling process (water cooling) is required for the control box 16 after the initial heat extraction.
[0054] By using condenser plates 216 installed inside the second guide tube 213, the condenser plates 216 cool down the entire second guide tube 213. When the gas enters from the outer cone opening 209, the design of the spiral groove 211 allows the gas to flow rapidly and collide with the cooled inner wall of the second guide tube 213 at high speed and rotate rapidly, so that it can fully contact the inner wall of the second guide tube 213 to improve the condensation effect. Furthermore, due to the array of guide grooves 214, the contact area between the gas and the inner wall of the second guide tube 213 is increased, further improving the condensation effect. Furthermore, due to the special shape of the conical sleeve 218, the gas coming out of the first guide tube 207 is separated and blown toward the inner wall of the second guide tube 213, preventing the gas from accumulating in the middle of the second guide tube 213, thereby accelerating the gas cooling efficiency and shortening the time for water droplet formation. When the gas containing moisture or water vapor passes through the second guide tube 213, the temperature decreases accordingly. By lowering the gas temperature, the moisture or water vapor in the gas condenses into liquid water on the inner wall of the second guide tube 213. The condensed liquid water is then collected into the water collection tank 220 through the water pipe 221 for later use, thus realizing the utilization of moisture or water vapor in the "waste heat".
[0055] It needs to be explained that when the exhaust fan 202 suddenly stops or reverses due to an abnormality, the gas passing through the hollow tube 203 will flow in the opposite direction, resulting in a reduction in the gas condensation effect. This design utilizes the tapered structure of the inner cone 210 to force the airflow to compress and accelerate through a decreasing cross-sectional area. According to Bernoulli's principle, the increased airflow velocity leads to a decrease in static pressure, thus creating a local low-pressure zone in the transition area between the cone 208 and the first guide tube 207. The annular space of the baffle groove 212 generates reverse resistance through the vortex effect. When the airflow attempts to flow backward, it is blocked by the turbulence within the baffle groove 212 and redirected towards the inner cone 210. This ensures the smooth flow of hot air in the forward direction while effectively suppressing reverse gas flow through physical barriers and pressure differences.
[0056] During the second cooling of the control box 16, the water pump 222 starts and draws condensate from the water collection tank 220 through the water pipe 223. Then, it is injected into the cavity 219 of the control box 16 through the first drain pipe 224. Since the cavity 219 is set in the wall of the control box 16, the two are completely isolated, so there will be no leakage into the control box 16. The condensate in the cavity 219 absorbs the heat from the electronic components in the control box 16, thereby cooling the control box 16. However, the condensate will heat up after absorbing heat. At this time, the micro pump installed at the bottom of the base 11 draws the heated water in the cavity 219 into the atomizing nozzle 319 through the pipeline and sprays water mist to reduce dust around the base 11 (the micro pump and pipeline are not shown in the diagram). This not only drains the heated water properly, but also reduces dust around the base 11 and improves the environmental quality of the warehouse.
[0057] Through the kinetic energy utilization structure, the stator of the linear generator 321 is fixed on the base 11 or structural frame of the stacker crane and remains stationary along the travel direction; while the mover of the linear generator 321 is installed on the horizontal slide 13. When the stator and mover move relative to each other, based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, when a conductor moves linearly in a magnetic field and cuts magnetic lines of force, an induced electromotive force is generated in the conductor, thereby generating current and directly converting linear mechanical energy into electrical energy (the linear generator 321 is existing technology and its application is mature, so it will not be described here). The electrical energy is stored in the warehouse's power grid or the storage battery built into the stacker crane. It generates electricity by utilizing the kinetic energy of the stacker crane when it is working horizontally, and uses self-generated power to power the electronic components of the stacker crane, saving energy and reducing operating costs.
[0058] When it is necessary to clean dust or waste particles and other impurities on track 15, motor 309 drives threaded rod 302 to rotate, and then moves threaded block 303 and support frame 304 towards vacuum cleaner 318. This is to increase the distance between support frame 304 and baffle 315, so that baffle 315 can rotate downward smoothly and not be blocked by support frame 304.
[0059] Then, motor 313 drives threaded rod 312 to rotate, which in turn drives threaded block 311 to move. When threaded block 311 moves, it drives connecting rod 314 to rotate, and through connecting rod 316, it pulls baffle 315 to rotate downward. Then baffle 315 is parallel to the bottom surface of horizontal slide 13. This is so that support frame 304 can extend from base 11. The purpose of baffle 315 is to prevent external impurities from entering horizontal slide 13. The automatic opening and closing of baffle 315 facilitates the extension of support frame 304. When cleaning brush 323 cleans, baffle 315 closes to prevent impurities from entering.
[0060] When the support frame 304 extends, the horizontal plate 307 contacts the inclined surface 308 at the top of the horizontal slide 13. Then, the cleaning brush 323 descends and compresses the first spring 306. The first spring 306 facilitates the return and repositioning of the cleaning brush 323. By lowering the cleaning brush 323, the bristles can enter the gap between the track 15 and the base 11, effectively cleaning this gap. Furthermore, the descent of the cleaning brush 323 ensures full contact between the bristles and the surface of the base 11, improving the cleaning effect. The movement of the horizontal slide 13 moves the cleaning brush 323, achieving the cleaning of the base 11 and the track 15. This process utilizes the horizontal slide... When the seat 13 moves, the cleaning impurities are sucked into the vacuum cleaner 318 through the first suction nozzle 317 and the first suction tube 322 to collect the impurities. At the same time, the first drain pipe 224 can be closed and the second drain pipe 320 can be opened through the electric valve. Then, the water collected in the water tank 220 enters the atomizing nozzle 319 through the second drain pipe 320. When the water in the cavity 219 is insufficient to meet the discharge of the atomizing nozzle 319, the second drain pipe 320 can replenish the water in time for the atomizing nozzle 319. The sprayed mist can reduce the floating of dust or fine particulate impurities during cleaning.
[0061] After the cleaning unit cleans the track 15, the support frame 304 returns to the horizontal slide block 13. Then, the movement of the second threaded block 311 pulls the baffle 315 downwards (as shown). Figure 10As shown in the diagram, the baffle 315 presses down on the wedge block 403 through its up-and-down movement, but it does not detach from the surface of the wedge block 403. After being pressed, the wedge block 403 moves along the movable rod 402, carrying the long strip 404 and the hook 405, and stretches the second spring 406. The hook 405 moves forward, pushing open the brush bristles. The baffle 315 lifts up partially, causing the second spring 406 to return to its original position along with the hook 405. When the hook 405 returns to its original position, it pulls the brush bristles backward. Through these two actions of pushing and pulling the brush bristles, the impurities left on the brush bristles during the cleaning of the track 15 are shaken off, preventing them from falling onto the track 15 during the next cleaning. Then, the shaken-off impurities are sucked into the vacuum cleaner 318 through the second suction nozzle 407 and the second suction tube 408. In summary, the track 15 can be cleaned using the cleaning brush 323, and the bottom brush bristles can be self-cleaned after the cleaning brush 323 returns to the horizontal slide 13.
