Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cleaning devices, in particular to an automatic wiping device for surfaces of special-shaped parts. Background Art
[0002] In modern industrial production systems, the application range of special-shaped parts is constantly expanding, from complex titanium alloy structures in the aerospace field, special-shaped engine parts in the automotive industry, to micro-shaped components in precision instruments. These parts are often designed with special structures such as deep holes, curved surfaces, corners, and grooves due to functional requirements. Their surface cleanliness is directly related to product performance and service life. However, current surface cleaning processes still face many technical pain points that need to be addressed.
[0003] Traditional wiping methods are dominated by manual labor, which has significant efficiency and quality shortcomings. Manual wiping relies on the operator's experience and physical strength. Not only is the cleaning efficiency low, but it is also difficult to ensure the consistency of the cleaning effect. Parts from the same batch may experience fluctuations in surface residue due to uneven wiping force and different dwell times, resulting in large deviations. Operator fatigue during long hours of operation will lead to a further decline in cleaning quality, and may even cause secondary contamination of the part surface due to sweat and grease from the hands. Even more seriously, if hard wiping materials are used during manual operation, it is very easy to cause scratches on the thin walls and sharp corners of special-shaped parts. Such damage can even directly lead to the scrapping of parts.
[0004] At the same time, the negative impact of residual impurities on subsequent processes far exceeds expectations. Residual cutting fluid film, metal debris, dust, and other contaminants adhering to part surfaces can cause increased wear on mating surfaces during assembly, increasing equipment operating noise and shortening service life. During the coating process, particulate impurities can cause defects such as bubbling and peeling, leading to high rework rates and significantly extended production cycles. For special-shaped parts requiring sealing performance, such as the irregularly shaped valve blocks in hydraulic systems, residual oil on the surface can accelerate seal aging and create leakage risks.
[0005] The technical limitations of existing automated wiping devices further highlight the industry's predicament. When it comes to cleaning blind spots, the rigid wiping arms of traditional devices are unable to reach deep holes and inner corners on unusually shaped parts, while the flexible wiping heads are prone to misalignment due to a lack of precise guidance. Furthermore, existing equipment is often customized for specific part models. Switching to parts with significantly different diameters or shapes requires recalibrating the robotic arm trajectory and replacing the wiping components, which takes a long time.
[0006] In summary, with the continuous improvement of the surface quality requirements for special-shaped parts in the high-end manufacturing field, the development of a surface wiping device that can take into account the adaptability of complex structures, multi-model compatibility and cleaning efficiency has become the key to breaking through production bottlenecks and ensuring product quality.

[0031] The following describes the technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0032] See also Figure 1-2In this embodiment, an automatic wiping device for the surface of special-shaped parts includes a workbench 1, which is equipped with a moving mechanism 2, a wiping mechanism 3 and a rotating clamping mechanism 4. The moving mechanism 2 includes a vertical moving component 22 and a horizontal moving component 21. The vertical moving component 22 is used for the wiping mechanism 3 to move vertically up and down, and the horizontal moving component 21 is used for the wiping mechanism 3 to move back and forth horizontally; the wiping mechanism 3 includes a cloth roll driving component 31, a tensioning component 32 and a flexible profiling component 33. The cloth roll driving component 31 includes a unwinding wheel 311, a winding wheel 312, a winding motor 313, a connecting wheel and a dust-free cloth roll 317. The dust-free cloth roll 317 is installed on the unwinding wheel 311, and the dust-free cloth of the dust-free cloth roll 317 is wound on the winding wheel through the connecting wheel. On 312, the winding motor 313 drives the winding wheel 312 to rotate for winding, the tensioning component 32 is used to tension the dust-free cloth, the dust-free cloth between the unwinding wheel 311 and the winding wheel 312 is the wiping working area, and the flexible profiling component 33 is arranged directly above the dust-free cloth in the wiping working area. The flexible profiling component 33 is used to press the dust-free cloth in the wiping working area onto the outer surface of the part and perform profiling; the rotating clamping mechanism 4 includes a clamping component 41 and a rotating component 42. The clamping component 41 includes several high-precision barrel clamps 411 for clamping parts. Several high-precision barrel clamps 411 are arranged along the length direction of the dust-free cloth, and the high-precision barrel clamps 411 are located directly below the dust-free cloth in the wiping working area. The rotating component 42 is used to drive several high-precision barrel clamps 411 to rotate.
[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4As shown, the horizontal moving component 21 includes a horizontal driving motor 211, a horizontal slide 212 and a horizontal fixed plate 213. The horizontal driving motor 211 drives the horizontal fixed plate 213 to move on the horizontal slide 212. The vertical moving component 22 includes a vertical driving motor 221, a vertical slide 222 and a vertical fixed plate 223. The vertical driving motor 221 drives the vertical fixed plate 223 to move vertically on the vertical slide 222. The vertical moving component 22, the cloth roll driving component 31 and the tensioning component 32 are all fixed on the horizontal fixed plate 213, and the flexible profiling component 33 is fixed on the vertical fixed plate 223. It should be noted that the horizontal moving component 21 and the vertical moving component 22 adopt a split drive structure. The horizontal driving motor 211 independently controls the horizontal movement of the horizontal fixed plate 213, and the vertical driving motor 221 independently drives the vertical movement of the vertical fixed plate 223, which can be realized. The precise linkage control of the wiping mechanism 3 in the horizontal and vertical directions greatly improves the alignment accuracy between the wiping working area and the part surface; at the same time, the vertical moving component 22, the cloth roll driving component 31 and the tensioning component 32 are integrated and fixed on the horizontal fixed plate 213, and the flexible profiling component 33 is separately fixed on the vertical fixed plate 223, which not only ensures the coordination of the movement of each component, but also simplifies the overall structural layout through modular integration, reducing the space occupied by the equipment; in addition, the guiding effect of the horizontal slide 212 and the vertical slide 222 can effectively reduce the vibration and deviation during the movement, ensuring that the dust-free cloth always maintains a stable tension state and fitting pressure during the wiping process, thereby improving the uniformity and consistency of wiping the surface of special-shaped parts; this structural design also facilitates the flexible adjustment of the horizontal and vertical movement parameters according to the wiping requirements of special-shaped parts of different specifications, thereby enhancing the adaptability and practical value of the equipment.
[0034] It should be noted that the horizontal moving component 21 drives the horizontal fixed plate 213 to move through the horizontal drive motor 211 and the internal screw transmission, and the vertical moving component 22 drives the vertical fixed plate 223 to move through the vertical drive motor 221 and the internal screw transmission.
[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, the connecting wheels include a first connecting wheel 314, a second connecting wheel 315 and a third connecting wheel 316, and the three connecting wheels are located on the same horizontal plane. The second connecting wheel 315 and the third connecting wheel 316 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the flexible profiling component 33. The first connecting wheel 314 is arranged on the left side of the second connecting wheel 315. The tensioning component 32 includes a tensioning wheel 321, and the tensioning wheel 321 is located between the first connecting wheel 314 and the second connecting wheel 315. The dust-free cloth roll 317 passes through the unwinding wheel 311, the first connecting wheel 314, the tensioning wheel 321, the second connecting wheel 315, the third connecting wheel 316 and the reeling wheel 312 in sequence. It should be noted that the three connecting wheels are arranged in the same horizontal plane, which can ensure that the dust-free cloth maintains a horizontal running state during the transmission process to avoid The wrinkles or offsets caused by the height difference provide a basic guarantee for the flatness of the subsequent wiping work area; the second connecting wheel 315 and the third connecting wheel 316 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the flexible contoured component 33, so that the wiping work area of the dust-free cloth can form a stable horizontal support section. When the flexible contoured component 33 is pressed down, the support section can be evenly stressed and tightly fit the surface of the part, effectively improving the consistency of the wiping contact; the position of the first connecting wheel 314 and the tensioning wheel 321 is set on the left side of the second connecting wheel 315, so that the dust-free cloth passes through the tensioning wheel 321 to adjust the tension before entering the wiping area. The tension fluctuations of the dust-free cloth during the winding and unwinding process can be compensated in real time through the tensioning wheel 321, and the pre-tensioning effect of this section of the path can be used to avoid the problem of false contact caused by the loose dust-free cloth during wiping.
[0036] In some embodiments, as Figure 5When the cam 321 is in the unlock state, the locking cam 324 is locked and the locking cam 325 is locked, so the cam 321 is locked. The elastic tension of 322 forms an adaptive tension adjustment mechanism; when the dust-free cloth changes in length due to unwinding and rewinding, the tensioning wheel 321 can slide flexibly along the arc groove 2131, and automatically compensate for the tension fluctuation by stretching the elastic member 322, ensuring that the dust-free cloth always maintains a stable tension, avoiding poor fit during wiping due to excessive looseness or damage to the dust-free cloth due to excessive tightness; the hinged design of the connecting plate 323 and the horizontal fixed plate 213 converts the sliding of the tensioning wheel 321 into rotation around the hinge point, reducing the rigid friction between components, reducing mechanical loss, and improving the smoothness of the tension adjustment; this design does not require complex electronic control adjustment, and dynamic tension balance can be achieved only through mechanical structure, which not only simplifies the control logic, but also provides continuous and uniform tension for the dust-free cloth during the wiping process, ensuring its close fit with the surface of the part, thereby improving the stability of the wiping effect on the surface of special-shaped parts.
[0037] In some embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the cloth roll drive assembly 31 includes an unwinding motor 318, which drives the unwinding wheel 311 to unwind, a height sensor 319 is provided on the connecting rod 324, and the winding motor 313 drives the winding wheel 312 to rewind, and the unwinding wheel 311 is used as a driven wheel to unwind, and the tensioning wheel 321 slides to the lowest point of the arc groove 2131 under the tension of the dust-free cloth, and the height sensor 319 senses the height position, so that the winding motor 313 stops running and starts the unwinding motor 318 to drive the unwinding wheel 311 to unwind, until the tensioning wheel 321 slides to the highest point of the arc groove 2131, the height sensor 319 senses the height position, and the unwinding motor 313 stops running and starts the unwinding motor 318 to drive the unwinding wheel 311 to unwind, until the tensioning wheel 321 slides to the highest point of the arc groove 2131, the height sensor 319 senses the height position, and the unwinding motor 3 18 stops running. It should be noted that this structure monitors the position of the tensioning wheel 321 in the arc groove 2131 in real time through the height sensor 319, and realizes the intelligent linkage control of the unwinding motor 318 and the rewinding motor 313: when the tensioning wheel 321 slides to the lowest point of the arc groove 2131 due to the increase of the dust-free cloth tension, the height sensor 319 triggers the rewinding motor 313 to stop and the unwinding motor 318 to start unwinding, so as to avoid the dust-free cloth from breaking due to excessive tension; when the tensioning wheel 321 slides to the highest point of the arc groove 2131 as the unwinding relaxes, the sensor controls the unwinding motor 318 to stop, so as to ensure that the dust-free cloth always maintains an appropriate tension. This automatic adjustment mechanism does not require human intervention, which not only ensures the stable fit of the dust-free cloth and the surface of the part, but also avoids damage to the cloth roll due to abnormal tension, significantly improving the stability and continuity of the wiping process. At the same time, the unwinding wheel 311 acts as a driven wheel and cooperates with the rewinding wheel 312 to actively rewind, combined with the active feeding of the unwinding motor 318, so that the conveying rhythm of the dust-free cloth is accurately matched with the wiping requirements, further improving the degree of automation and operational reliability of the equipment.
[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 6-Figure 9As shown, the vertical fixing plate 223 is provided with a mounting hole 2231 for mounting the flexible profiling component 33, and the flexible profiling component 33 includes a pressure head 331, a pressure rod seat 332, an outer spring 333, a mounting seat 334 and a limit block 335. The pressure head 331 is fixed to the lower end of the pressure rod seat 332 by a bolt. The lower end surface of the pressure head 331 is provided with a profiling groove 3311 consistent with the shape of the outer surface of the part. The mounting seat 334 is fixed just below the mounting hole 2231, and the center hole of the mounting seat 334 is aligned with the mounting hole 2231. The cam 332 is provided with a screw bolt 333 on the top of the cam 334 so that the cam 333 can be screwed in. The cam 333 is provided with a screw bolt 333 on the top of the cam 334 so that the cam 333 can be screwed in. The cam 332 is pressed against the top of the workpiece 331 and the cam 333 is pressed against the workpiece 331 so that the workpiece 333 is in a state of contact with the workpiece 331. The cam 332 is pressed against the workpiece 331 and the cam 333 is pressed against the workpiece 331.
[0039] In some embodiments, as Figure 6-Figure 7The cam 338 is a hole that is fixed on the cam 339 of the embodiment of the invention, and the cam 339 is a hole that is fixed on the cam 339 of the invention. , achieving synchronous and all-round cleaning of the part's outer surface and hole structure, the elastic support of the inner spring 338 enables the profiling needle 336 to have a certain buffer adjustment ability, and can automatically adjust the extension and contraction amount according to the depth of the hole or the slight size difference, to avoid scratches or deformation of the part hole wall caused by rigid contact, and at the same time ensure that the profiling needle 336 and the inner wall of the hole always maintain appropriate fitting pressure, thereby improving the wiping effect. In addition, the threaded connection design of the locking screw 337 facilitates the rapid replacement of profiling needles 336 of different specifications, and cooperates with the outer surface profiling function realized by the outer spring 333 to form a dual adaptation structure in which the outer profiling groove 3311 cooperates with the profiling needle 336, which greatly enhances the adaptability of the equipment to complex and special-shaped parts; this modular design also simplifies the maintenance process, reduces the debugging cost for different parts, and further improves the practical value and operational flexibility of the equipment.
[0040] It should be noted that the blind hole includes a second inner hole 3324 , which is located above the first inner hole 3322 , and an inner diameter of the second inner hole 3324 is larger than that of the first inner hole 3322 .
[0041] In some embodiments, as Figure 8As shown, the rotating assembly 42 includes a fixed seat 421, a tooling base 422, a rotating rod 423, a rotating motor 424, a bearing 425, a connecting gear 426 and a transmission gear 427. The high-precision collet 411 is fixed on the fixed seat 421. A connecting gear 426 and a transmission gear 427 are provided in the accommodating cavity 4221 of the tooling base 422. The fixed seat 421 is arranged above the tooling base 422. The two ends of the rotating rod 423 are respectively connected to the fixed seat 421 and the transmission gear 427. The rotating rod 423 is connected to the tooling base 422 through a bearing 425. The transmission gear 427, the rotating rod 423 and the fixed seat 421 are coaxially arranged. Adjacent transmission gears 427 are engaged and transmitted through the connecting gear 426. The rotating motor 424 is arranged under the tooling base 422. On the one hand, the output gear 4241 of the rotating motor 424 is meshed with the transmission gear 427. It should be noted that the adjacent transmission gears 427 are meshed through the connecting gear 426, and the output gear 4241 of the rotating motor 424 directly drives the transmission gear 427 to form a stable transmission chain, ensuring that multiple high-precision collet chucks 411 rotate synchronously, avoiding the problem of uneven wiping of parts due to speed differences, and is particularly suitable for batch wiping operations of special-shaped parts of the same batch; the transmission gear 427, the rotating rod 423 and the fixed seat 421 are coaxially arranged, combined with the supporting role of the bearing 425 on the rotating rod 423, which greatly improves the concentricity of the rotation process, effectively reduces the radial runout of the part during rotation, ensures the stability of the fit between the outer surface of the part and the dust-free cloth, and thus improves the wiping accuracy.
[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 8As shown, the rotating clamping mechanism 4 includes a disengagement component 43, which includes a mounting frame 431, a telescopic cylinder 432, a disengagement slide 433, a disengagement slider 434 and a support seat 435. The mounting cavity 4311 of the mounting frame 431 accommodates the tooling base plate 422, and the disengagement sliders 434 are symmetrically fixed on the left and right sides of the tooling base plate 422. The disengagement slider 433 is installed on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 4221 of the mounting frame 431, and the disengagement slider 433 is coordinated with the disengagement slider 434. The telescopic cylinder 432 is fixed on the mounting frame 431, and the telescopic cylinder 432 is located directly above the disengagement slider 434. The piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 432 is fixedly connected to the disengagement slider 434. The piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 432 pushes the disengagement slide 433 to move vertically up and down. The support seat 435 is arranged at the bottom of the mounting cavity 4311 of the mounting frame 431, and the support seat 435 is located at the bottom of the tooling base plate 422. The lower part is used to support the tooling base plate 422. It should be noted that the disengagement component 43 drives the disengagement slide 434 to move vertically along the disengagement slide 433 through the telescopic cylinder 432, thereby realizing the automatic lifting and lowering of the tooling base plate 422 without the need for manual handling and adjustment, which greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of parts loading and unloading. The precise coordination between the disengagement slide 433 and the disengagement slide 434 provides a stable guide for the lifting and lowering of the tooling base plate 422, effectively avoiding offset or shaking during movement, ensuring the accuracy of the high-precision collet 411 and the part position, and reducing the wiping error caused by positioning deviation; and when it is necessary to pick and place parts, the telescopic cylinder 432 pushes the tooling base plate 422 down to the support seat 435, forming a space that is convenient for operation, realizing rapid switching between working state and loading and unloading state. This structural design not only ensures the stability of the equipment during the wiping process, but also simplifies the parts loading and unloading process and reduces the intensity of manual operation.
[0043] In some embodiments, as Figure 8 As shown, several transmission gears 427 and several connecting gears 426 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the output gear 4241 of the rotating motor 424, and the output gear 4241 of the rotating motor 424 simultaneously meshes with adjacent transmission gears 427. It should be noted that the transmission mode in which the output gear 4241 of the rotating motor 424 simultaneously meshes with adjacent transmission gears 427 can evenly transmit the motor power to the transmission mechanisms on both sides, effectively avoiding the transmission deviation caused by excessive force on one side, and significantly improving the synchronization and stability of the rotation of multiple sets of high-precision collet clamps 411; this symmetrical structure can reduce the transmission error caused by the gear meshing gap, ensure that all clamped special-shaped parts maintain a consistent rotation speed, ensure that the wiping force and frequency of the surface of each part are uniform, and improve the consistency of batch wiping; at the same time, the design of a single motor driving multiple sets of gear transmission simplifies the number of power sources, reduces equipment energy consumption and failure rate, and the symmetrical layout makes the overall transmission structure more compact, saves installation space of the workbench 1, and facilitates the integrated design and maintenance of the equipment.

After the position adjustment is completed, the horizontal moving component 21 and the vertical moving component 22 stop running.
[0046] S3, start wiping stage: the rotating motor 424 of the rotating component 42 is started, and its output gear 4241 drives the transmission gear 427 to rotate, and the adjacent transmission gears 427 are engaged and transmitted through the connecting gear 426, so that the rotating rod 423 drives the fixed seat 421 and the high-precision collet chuck 411 to rotate, and then drives the parts to rotate continuously to achieve self-cleaning of the parts; when the dust-free cloth has worked for a period of time, the rotating motor 424 stops running, and the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 432 of the disengagement component 43 pushes the disengagement slider 434 to move the tooling base 422 downward, and the parts are disengaged from the dust-free cloth. The cloth roll driving assembly 31 continues to work, the winding motor 313 drives the winding wheel 312 to rotate and rewind the used dust-free cloth, and the unwinding wheel 311 acts as a driven wheel to release the new dust-free cloth accordingly. The tensioning assembly 32 always keeps the dust-free cloth in a tensioned state. After the replacement is completed, the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 432 drives the part to move up and contact the dust-free cloth, and through the flexible profiling assembly 33, the outer spring 333 and the inner spring 338 are used to make the pressure head 331 conform to the outer surface of the part, and the surface is wiped by utilizing the relative movement between the rotation of the part and the dust-free cloth.
[0047] S4, end stage of wiping: the rotating component 42 stops working, and the high-precision collet 411 stops driving the part to rotate; the vertical drive motor 221 of the moving mechanism 2 drives the vertical fixed plate 223 to move upward, so that the pressure head 331 of the flexible contouring component 33 leaves the surface of the part; the horizontal drive motor 211 drives the horizontal fixed plate 213 to move, driving the wiping mechanism 3 to reset as a whole, and the cloth roll driving component 31 continues to work, and the winding motor 313 drives the winding wheel 312 to rotate and wind up the used dust-free cloth, and the unwinding wheel 311 acts as a driven wheel to release the new dust-free cloth accordingly for the next wiping; at the same time, in the disengagement component 43 of the rotating clamping mechanism 4, the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 432 pushes the disengagement slider 434, so that the tooling base plate 422 moves down along the disengagement slide 433 to the support seat 435, and the high-precision collet 411 releases the part, making it easy to remove the part.
