Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ultrasonic cleaning technology, specifically to an ultrasonic spray cleaning device for gear processing. Background Technology

[0002] Ultrasonic spray cleaning combines the ultrasonic cavitation effect with high-pressure spray technology. The principle is that a high-pressure pump sprays liquid containing cavitation bubbles at high speed through a nozzle. The mechanical scouring force of the liquid flow and the cavitation burst effect work together to enhance the cleaning effect, making it especially suitable for objects with uneven surfaces or those that are difficult to soak.

[0003] For example, patent CN116237304B, published on July 8, 2023, discloses a through-type ultrasonic spray cleaning device, relating to the field of ultrasonic cleaning technology. It includes a body with multiple working areas arranged from left to right, comprising an ultrasonic cleaning area, a spray cleaning area, an air-drying area, and a spray rust-prevention area; and a conveying device including a circulating conveyor line arranged along the multiple working areas. The circulating conveyor line is spaced apart by multiple tooling sections, each tooling section having a front-to-back extending placement groove, allowing cylindrical workpieces to be supported on the tooling sections for conveying. The conveying and rotating structure includes a friction rotating structure in at least one of the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the spray cleaning zone. The friction rotating structure includes a friction part that abuts against the outer periphery of the cylindrical workpiece during conveying and moving, generating a tangential frictional force on the cylindrical workpiece. The friction part is configured to drive the cylindrical workpiece to rotate during conveying and moving. The friction part is adjustable along the radial direction perpendicular to the conveying direction and simultaneously along the radial direction of the cylindrical workpiece. The friction part is also adjustable along the axial direction of the cylindrical workpiece. The tooling part has a plurality of V-shaped positioning slots arranged at left and right intervals, and the V-shaped positioning slots form placement slots.

[0004] In existing ultrasonic spray cleaning of gears, the gears are mostly transported to the spraying area by a conveyor mechanism, and then sprayed with liquid containing cavitation bubbles through nozzles. Since most of the existing nozzles are fixed, that is, the direction of the water flow from the nozzle is fixed, and the gear is placed stationary on the conveyor mechanism, when the water flow in one direction sprays the stationary gear, the spray water may not be able to effectively impact hidden areas such as the tooth root or the tooth groove wall, thus affecting the cleaning effect of the gear. Summary of the Invention

For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] like Figure 1-8 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an ultrasonic spray cleaning device for gear processing, including a conveying mechanism 1 and an ultrasonic spraying mechanism 2. A spraying area is formed between the ultrasonic spraying mechanism and the conveying mechanism 1. The conveying mechanism 1 is used to feed and discharge the gear 5 from the spraying area. The device also includes an adjusting mechanism 3, which drives the gear 5 to rotate when it moves within the spraying area.

[0031] Specifically, the conveying mechanism 1 is preferably a chain conveyor, with gears 5 horizontally placed on the chain plate of the conveying mechanism 1. Support plates 4 are installed on both sides of the conveying mechanism 1, arranged vertically. The ultrasonic spraying mechanism 2 is installed on the support plates 4, and the channel space formed by the distance between the two sets of support plates 4 is the spraying area. That is, the conveying mechanism 1 is located below the spraying area, the ultrasonic spraying mechanism 2 is located above the area, and the support plates 4 are located on both sides of the spraying area. The ultrasonic spraying mechanism 2 includes at least a water tank, nozzles, an ultrasonic transducer, and a high-pressure water pump. The nozzles are located at the bottom of the water tank and are connected to the water tank, the high-pressure water pump, and the ultrasonic transducer through pipes. All components are installed inside a water tank. The water tank uses a high-pressure water pump to deliver the cleaning fluid to the nozzles, which then spray it out through the bottom opening of the nozzles. The ultrasonic transducer converts electrical energy into high-frequency mechanical vibration, causing cavitation bubbles to be generated in the cleaning fluid inside the water tank. After the cleaning fluid with cavitation bubbles is sprayed out of the nozzles, the impact of the cleaning fluid and the impact force of the bursting bubbles remove the dirt from the surface of the gear 5. This ultrasonic spraying mechanism is existing technology and will not be described in detail. In addition, there are multiple sets of nozzles, which are equidistantly arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1. Furthermore, the bottom of the conveying mechanism 1 is equipped with a draining mechanism 6, which is used to transport the wastewater flowing down from the chain plate of the conveying mechanism 1 to the outside.

[0032] The adjusting mechanism 3 includes a limiting member 31 and a passive member 32. When the conveying mechanism 1 is a chain plate conveyor, the limiting member 31 is installed on the chain plate of the conveying mechanism 1, and the passive member 32 is installed in the spraying area and connected to the support plate 4. In actual use, the gear 5 is first placed on the limiting member 31. When the conveying mechanism 1 transports the gear 5 to the spraying area, the gear 5 contacts the passive member 32 in the spraying area. The passive member 32 drives the gear 5 to rotate in the spraying area. Through rotation, the cleaning liquid sprayed from the nozzle can be sprayed more evenly on each position of the gear 5, reducing the occurrence of spray dead angles during the spraying process and improving the cleaning effect on the gear 5.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, preferably, the limiting member 31 includes a column 311, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to the conveying part of the conveying mechanism 1, such as a chain plate, and the gear 5 is sleeved on the column 311.

[0034] Specifically, the column 311 is perpendicular to the chain plate, and the gear 5 is mounted on the column 311. When the conveying mechanism 1 is running, the chain plate transports the gear 5 to the spraying area. At this time, the gear 5 contacts the driven part 32 during its movement. The driven part 32 can be a rack installed in the spraying area. The rack meshes with the gear 5, driving the gear 5 to rotate on the column 311. The rotation of the gear 5 during the spraying process can improve its own cleaning effect, reduce the cleaning dead corners in hidden areas such as racks and tooth grooves, and improve the cleaning effect on the gear 5. In addition, the column 311 can also limit the gear 5, preventing some of the lighter gears from being impacted by the high-pressure water flow from the nozzle and moving on the chain plate. That is, the gear 5 will move backward during the spraying process, thus affecting the movement and cleaning of the gear 5 in the spraying area.

[0035] Because gears 5 of different specifications and sizes have different tooth grooves and number of teeth, in order to enable gears 5 of different specifications and sizes to rotate on the column 311, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the passive component 32 includes a passive plate 321, and a friction pad 322 is installed on the side of the passive plate 321, and the friction pad 322 is in frictional contact with the gear 5.

[0036] Specifically, the passive plate 321 is vertically arranged in the spray area. In an optional embodiment, the passive plate 321 is connected to the inner wall of the support plate 4 via a connecting rod 323. The length direction of the passive plate 321 is consistent with the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1. In actual use, the gear 5 is mounted on the column 311 and is horizontally fed into the spray area, where it contacts the friction pad 322 on the side of the passive plate 321. Through the friction contact between the friction pad 322 and the gear 5, and the continuous horizontal movement of the gear 5, the gear 5 rotates during the horizontal movement, that is, it rotates on the column 311. The friction pad 322 can be a rubber pad, etc. By setting the friction pad 322, the gear 5 can rotate on the column 311. The principle of friction drive is used to drive the gear 5 to rotate, which avoids the problem that when a rack drives the gear 5 to rotate, a single rack can only drive the gear 5 of a single specification and size to rotate. In this embodiment, the gear 5 only needs to contact the friction pad 322 to drive it to rotate during the movement. In some alternative embodiments, an electric push rod, an electric telescopic rod, or other linear drive mechanism (not shown) can also be set on the support plate 4. The linear drive mechanism can drive the passive plate 321 to move horizontally along the width direction of the conveying mechanism 1, that is, adjust the distance between the passive plate 321 and the column 311 so that gears 5 of different diameters can contact the friction pad 322 and rotate in the spray area.

[0037] To prevent the gear 5 from rubbing against the chain plate during rotation, in another embodiment of the present invention, the column 311 is further shaped into a convex shape.

[0038] Specifically, the column 311 includes a first column 312 and a second column 313. The first column 312 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the second column 313, and the lower end of the second column 313 is fixedly connected to the chain plate on the conveying mechanism 1. The central axis of the first column 312 and the central axis of the second column 313 are collinear. The diameter of the second column 313 is larger than the diameter of the shaft hole on the gear 5, and the diameter of the first column 312 is smaller than the diameter of the shaft hole on the gear 5. When the gear 5 is placed on the column 311, the gear 5 rests on the upper end of the second column 313. At this time, the gear 5 is suspended above the chain plate, which avoids the gear 5 from contacting the chain plate when rotating and reduces the phenomenon of scratches on the surface of the gear 5 during rotation.

[0039] More specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the passive plate 321 is slidably connected to the connecting rod 323. The upper end of the passive plate 321 is provided with a T-shaped slider 324. The connecting rod 323 has a groove 325 inside that matches the slider 324. The slider 324 is located within the groove 325 and forms a sliding guide engagement with the groove 325. A first spring 326 is also installed inside the groove 325. One end of the first spring 326 is fixedly connected to the slider 324, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 325. In this embodiment, the passive plate 321 has a V-shaped structure, meaning it consists of a horizontal holding section 3211 and an inclined guiding section 3212. Both the holding section 3211 and the guiding section 3212 are provided with friction pads 322. Figure 6As shown, the guide section 3212 is located on the side of the holding section 3211 away from the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1. In actual use, the gear 5 will first contact the guide section 3212 during horizontal movement. Gears 5 of different sizes will first contact different positions of the guide section 3212. When the radius of the gear 5 is greater than the initial distance between the holding section 3211 and the column 311, the gear 5 will contact the guide section 3212 during horizontal movement and push the guide section 3212 to move away from the gear 5 during continuous movement. That is, the passive plate 321 slides on the connecting rod 323 and moves away from the column 311. The movement of the passive plate 321 increases the distance between the holding section 3211 and the column 311, that is, it increases the distance between the passive plate 321 and the column 311. At the same time, the gear 5 is also on the second column 313. As the gear moves upward, the inside of the gear 5 is pressed against the first column 312. The central axis of the gear 5 is located on the side of the second column 313 opposite to the passive plate 321, that is, the gear 5 is located at an eccentric position on the first column 312. When the gear 5 contacts the friction pad 322 on the guide section 3212 and the holding section 3211, the gear 5 rotates eccentrically on the first column 312. Through the sliding setting of the passive plate 321, it can adapt to gears of different sizes. That is to say, the passive plate 321 can passively adjust the distance between itself and the column 311 according to the size of the gear 5, and the elastic force provided by the first spring 326 clamps the gear 5 between the column 311 and the passive plate 321, so that the gear 5 can stably contact the friction pad 322 on the passive plate 321 and can stably rotate during horizontal movement, that is, rotate eccentrically on the column 311.

[0040] In another embodiment of the present invention, the passive plate 321 is further provided in multiple sets, and the multiple sets of passive plates 321 are arranged at equal intervals along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1. The multiple sets of passive plates 321 are used to drive the gear 5 to rotate intermittently in the spraying area. A trigger 33 is installed in the second column 313. The trigger 33 is used to drive the gear 5 to swing into an inclined state when the gear 5 moves between two adjacent sets of passive plates 321.

[0041] Specifically, such as Figure 6As shown, the passive plate 321 is provided in multiple sets, and there is a certain distance between each set of passive plates 321. In actual use, when the gear 5 moves in the spray area, the gear 5 first contacts the passive plate 321 and rotates on the column 311. As the gear 5 continues to move, when the gear 5 passes the set of passive plates 321, the trigger 33 drives the gear 5 to tilt upward on the side close to the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1. That is, at this time, the gear 5 is tilted on the column 311. Through the tilting setting of the gear 5, the tooth groove on the tilted part of the gear 5 can face the nozzle. At this time, the cleaning liquid sprayed by the nozzle can directly enter the tooth groove, so that the tooth groove can be thoroughly rinsed. At the same time, the cleaning liquid can also improve the rinsing of the tooth root and the tooth groove wall.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, preferably, the trigger 33 includes a trigger rod 331, a wedge 332, and a push rod 333. The second column 313 has a receiving groove 334 inside. The trigger rod 331 is located in the receiving groove 334 and forms a sliding guide engagement with the receiving groove 334. One end of the trigger rod 331 extends out of the receiving groove 334, and the other end is located in the receiving groove 334 and is fixedly connected to the wedge 332. The push rod 333 is also installed in the receiving groove 334 and forms a sliding guide engagement with the receiving groove 334. The lower end of the push rod 333 forms a wedge-shaped engagement with the wedge 332. A limit plate 336 is also installed in the spray area, and the limit plate 336 forms a wedge-shaped engagement with the trigger rod 331.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the trigger rod 331 and the top rod 333 are arranged perpendicular to each other. A second spring 335 is fitted onto the portion of the trigger rod 331 located within the receiving groove 334. One end of the second spring 335 is fixedly connected to the trigger rod 331, and the other end is fixedly connected to the groove wall of the receiving groove 334. A guide slope is provided at the lower end of the top rod 333. The top rod 333 forms a wedge-shaped fit with the wedge block 332 through the guide slope. The limiting plate 336 is located within the spray area and is fixedly connected to the support plate 4. The limiting plate 336 is also located between two adjacent sets of passive plates 321 and below the passive plates 321, limiting the movement of the water. The side of plate 336 near column 311 is provided with inclined section 337 and horizontal section 338. The limiting plate 336 forms a wedge-shaped engagement with trigger rod 331 through inclined section 337. That is, when gear 5 moves between two adjacent sets of passive plates 321, trigger rod 331 contacts limiting plate 336. The stroke when gear 5 contacts passive plate 321 is called the first stroke, and the stroke when trigger rod 331 contacts limiting plate 336 is called the second stroke. When column 311 drives gear 5 to move in the spray area, the first stroke and the second stroke are provided in multiple segments, and the first stroke and the second stroke are performed alternately.

[0044] In the first stroke, the conveying mechanism 1 drives the column 311 and its gear 5 to slowly enter the spraying area, so that the gear 5 on the column 311 contacts the friction pad 322 on the passive plate 321. Through friction transmission, the gear 5 rotates during the movement. Since the diameter of the first column 312 is smaller than the internal diameter of the gear 5, after the gear 5 contacts the passive plate 321, the first column 312 is located at the eccentric position of the gear 5. However, under the resistance of the friction pad 322 on the passive plate 321, the gear 5 can still rotate on the first column 312. The rotation of the gear 5 in the spraying area improves its cleaning effect.

[0045] When the first stroke ends, gear 5 disengages from the passive plate 321 and remains stationary on the column 311. Then, at the start of the second stroke, the trigger rod 331 extends one end of the receiving groove 334 and contacts the inclined section 337 on the limiting plate 336. Driven by the inclined section 337, the limiting plate 336 is forced to retract into the receiving groove 334, and the second spring 335 begins to contract. At this point, the limiting plate 336 moves towards the side closer to the push rod 333, causing the wedge block 332 to move synchronously. The wedge block 332, through its wedge-shaped engagement with the push rod 333, rises within the receiving groove 334 and extends from the upper opening of the receiving groove 334. At this time, the rising push rod 333 contacts the stationary gear 5 and pushes it upwards from its eccentric position. That is, the side of gear 5 closest to the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1 tilts upwards. Then, the trigger rod 331... The contact between the trigger rod 31 and the limiting plate 336 moves from the inclined section 337 to the horizontal section 338. The horizontal section 338 is used to keep the trigger rod 331 retracted into the receiving groove 334, while the push rod 333 is also kept in the upward extended state. The gear 5 is also kept in the state of tilting upward on one side and moving in the spray area until the movement of the column 311 causes the trigger rod 331 to disengage from the horizontal section 338 of the limiting plate 336. That is, the trigger rod 331 loses the resistance and limitation of the limiting plate 336. The second spring 335 begins to reset and pushes the trigger rod 331 to reset and slide in the receiving groove 334. The wedge block 332 moves away from the lower end of the push rod 333. At the same time, the push rod 333 begins to reset under the influence of gravity. The gear 5 also begins to reset after losing the push rod 333. That is, the push rod 333 resets into the receiving groove 334, the gear 5 resets to the horizontal state, and the second stroke ends.

[0046] Furthermore, since there are multiple sets of passive plates 321, and each set of passive plates 321 is equipped with a limiting plate 336, after the gear 5 completes the second stroke, it will immediately contact another set of passive plates 321 and rotate under the drive of the passive plates 321 before proceeding to the next first stroke. At this time, the rotation of the gear 5 driven by the passive plates 321 also adjusts the position of the gear 5 on the column 311, causing the other parts of the gear 5 to move above the push rod 333, and the trigger rod 331 contacts the subsequent limiting plate 336. At this time, the limiting plate 336 drives the push rod 333 to rise again and pushes the side of the gear 5 closer to the conveying direction upward. Since the gear 5 has rotated, that is, eccentrically rotated on the first column 312, it adjusts its different positions to move above the push rod 333. Therefore, the part pushed by the push rod 333 at this time is not the same as before. That is, different positions of the gear 5 are pushed upward, so that the tooth grooves of different positions of the gear 5 correspond to the nozzles during the spraying process, so that the nozzles can thoroughly wash each tooth groove on the gear 5.

[0047] In summary, when gear 5 moves within the spray area, it alternates between several first and second strokes. In the first stroke, the rotation of gear 5 is not only to improve the cleaning effect, but also to adjust different positions of gear 5 to move above the push rod 333 in the subsequent second stroke. This allows the push rod 333 to sequentially lift different positions of gear 5 upwards in several second strokes, ensuring that each tooth groove of gear 5 corresponds to a nozzle within the spray area, enabling the nozzle to spray and rinse each tooth groove of gear 5.

[0048] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
