TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, and particularly relates to a veterinary tool cleaning device for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous development of modern animal husbandry towards scale and intensification, the cleaning and disinfection of veterinary tools play an increasingly key role in protecting animal health and preventing cross-infection. Veterinary tools often come into contact with blood, tissue fluid, drug residues and other pollutants during use, and are easy to become a transmission medium for pathogenic microorganisms. If not cleaned thoroughly, it not only affects the service life and performance of the tools, but also may cause serious biosecurity risks.
[0003] At present, common veterinary tool cleaning devices mainly include ultrasonic cleaning machines and spray cleaning machines. Ultrasonic cleaning machines rely on cavitation effect generated by high-frequency vibration to achieve dirt peeling, and have certain cleaning advantages for tools with complex structure, multiple joints or more internal cavities (such as surgical forceps). However, this technology also has obvious limitations: first, the strong vibration during cleaning may cause damage to tools containing electronic components or precise structures; second, the removal efficiency of stubborn dirt such as dry dirt is low, and the cleaning time often needs to be extended, affecting the overall processing capacity.
[0004] In contrast, spray cleaning machines impact the tool surface with high-pressure water flow, have adjustable cleaning strength, and are suitable for a wide range of tools, so they have gradually become the mainstream choice. However, in order to ensure the stability of the tools during cleaning, such devices usually need to fix the tools by means of clamping, hanging or adsorbing. Although such fixing structures help positioning, they inevitably block part of the tool surface, causing the clamping area to be unable to fully contact the water flow and forming a cleaning dead angle. More seriously, these dead angle areas are easy to accumulate pollutants, causing secondary pollution and affecting the final cleaning effect and subsequent use safety of the tools. For example, the patent with publication number CN118436441A provides a tool cleaning device for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, which can realize the expansion and fixation of tools such as surgical scissors and tweezers by setting symmetrically distributed fixing pipes and telescopic rod structures. However, the sleeve joint parts of the fixing pipes and tool handles and the clamping areas of the telescopic rods still cannot be effectively cleaned, resulting in dirt residues. Similarly, the patent with publication number CN221434094U also provides an adjustable clamping cleaning device, which realizes the clamping and rotary cleaning of tools of different sizes through the cooperation of limiting blocks and threaded rods. Although this structure improves the adaptability of operation, the clamping parts still block the cleaning surface, causing cleaning dead angles on the surface of the veterinary tools and affecting the subsequent safe use.

When the driving motor 53 is started, the two rotating drums 4 can be driven to synchronously and reversely rotate through the transmission shafts 51 and the transmission gears 52 engaged with each other.
[0024] Referring to Figures 2 to 6As shown, each of the two rotating drums 4 is provided with a clamping assembly, and the two clamping assemblies are located on the non-adjacent bottom walls of the two rotating drums 4, that is, one clamping assembly is arranged on the upper side of one rotating drum 4, and the other clamping assembly is arranged on the lower side of the other rotating drum 4. Each clamping assembly includes a driving part 6 and a plurality of clamping parts 7, each clamping part is used to clamp a separate veterinary tool to be cleaned; the driving part 6 of each clamping assembly is arranged at the end of the corresponding rotating drum 4, and the plurality of clamping parts 7 are arranged around the circumferential side of the corresponding rotating drum 4, preferably, the plurality of clamping parts 7 are distributed in a circumferential array around the circumferential side of the rotating drum 4. The plurality of clamping parts 7 in each clamping assembly correspond one-to-one, when the two corresponding clamping parts 7 are rotated to the opposite state by the rotation of the rotating drum 4, at this time, the two opposite clamping parts 7 are simultaneously driven to be opened by the corresponding driving part 6, so that the veterinary tool clamped in the upper clamping part 7 is released and slides downward into the corresponding lower clamping part 7 which does not clamp the veterinary tool, completing the transfer of the veterinary tool.
[0025] Specifically, in use, a plurality of veterinary tools to be cleaned are clamped in each clamping part 7 located on the upper side of the rotating drum 4 at this time, and the driving assembly 5 is used to drive the two rotating drums 4 to rotate synchronously, so that the two corresponding clamping parts 7 on the two rotating drums 4 can be intermittently arranged in the opposite state between the two rotating drums 4, and then when the two corresponding clamping parts 7 are rotated to the opposite position between the two rotating drums 4, at this time, the two corresponding clamping parts 7 are opened simultaneously under the driving of the corresponding driving part 6 on the two rotating drums 4, so that the veterinary tool clamped in the upper clamping part 7 falls and transfers to the corresponding lower clamping part 7 which does not clamp the veterinary tool under the action of gravity, realizing the transfer of the clamping position of the veterinary tool between the two corresponding clamping parts 7, that is, the transfer of the veterinary tool between the two rotating drums 4, and after the transfer of the veterinary tool, the clamping position of the veterinary tool between the two clamping parts 7 is changed, and the transfer of the veterinary tool between the two rotating drums 4 enables the veterinary tool to be turned over by at least 180 degrees, so that the surface of the veterinary tool can be completely exposed between the two rotating drums 4, so that the surface of the veterinary tool can be completely cleaned before and after the exchange between the two rotating drums 4 under the continuous spraying of the cleaning liquid by the two spraying ends of the spraying assembly 2, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the surface of the veterinary tool and providing safety guarantee for subsequent repeated use.
[0026] Referring to Figures 4 to 7As shown, further, in order to facilitate the exchange of the veterinary tool between the two rotating drums 4, the clamping part 7 comprises a sliding plate 71, an elastic member 72, a clamping plate 74 and at least one clamping rod 73. The sliding plate 71 is slidingly connected to the top wall or the bottom wall of the rotating drum 4, and the sliding direction of the sliding plate 71 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating drum 4; the elastic member 72 is preferably a tensile spring or a compression spring, which is arranged between the sliding plate 71 and the rotating drum 4, and in order to ensure the stability of the extension and contraction of the elastic member 72, a sliding groove 75 is formed on the rotating drum 4 for facilitating sliding, a guide column 76 is arranged in the sliding groove 75, and the elastic member 72 and the sliding plate 71 are sleeved on the guide column 76, so that the sliding plate 71 can be moved and reset under the action of the elastic member 72; the at least one clamping rod 73 is vertically arranged on the circumferential side of the rotating drum 4, one end of the clamping rod 73 is connected to the sliding plate 71, the clamping plate 74 is arranged between the rotating drum 4 and the clamping rod 73, the clamping plate 74 is arranged in parallel and offset with the clamping rod 73, and the clamping plate 74 is fixedly connected to the rotating drum 4. The driving part 6 is arranged between the sliding plate 71 and the support frame 3. During the cleaning process, when the clamping part 7 rotates to the position opposite to the other rotating drum 4, the driving part 6 pushes the sliding plate 71 to move against the elastic force of the elastic member 72, so as to realize the separation and opening between the clamping plate 74 and the clamping rod 73, and realize the release of the veterinary tool. Preferably, the clamping rod 73 and the clamping plate 74 are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, and in order to ensure the safety of the veterinary tool, the surfaces of the clamping plate 74 and the clamping rod 73 are provided with a corrosion-resistant rubber layer.
[0027] Referring to Figures 5 to 7As shown, in order to effectively cooperate with the clamping part 7, it is ensured that the clamping part 7 can be opened at the same time when the two rotating drums 4 are rotated to the position where the two rotating drums 4 are opposite to each other, that is, the corresponding clamping parts 7 on the two rotating drums 4 are opposite to each other, so as to realize smooth transfer of the veterinary tool. The driving part 6 comprises a column body 61 and a plurality of abutting blocks 63. The axis of the column body 61 is parallel to the axis of the rotating drum 4. The column body 61 is eccentrically fixedly installed on the support frame 3 and located at the end of the rotating drum 4. Meanwhile, one side of the column body 61 extends between the two rotating drums 4, that is, a part of the column body 61 is located on the upper side or the lower side of the spacing formed between the two rotating drums 4. A limiting plane 62 parallel to the axis of the column body 61 is formed on the side wall of the column body 61 away from the transmission shaft 51. The plurality of abutting blocks 63 correspond to the plurality of clamping parts 7 one by one. Each abutting block 63 is fixed on the corresponding sliding plate 71. The abutting block 63 has a wedge-shaped contour matched with the outer peripheral surface of the column body 61. When the rotating drum 4 rotates, the clamping plate 74 and the clamping rod 73 always remain in a closed state under the action of the elastic member 72 when the abutting block 63 is not in contact with the main body, so as to realize clamping of the veterinary tool. When the inclined surface of the abutting block 63 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the column body 61, the abutting block 63 is pushed at this time, thereby driving the sliding plate 71 to move. When the abutting block 63 moves to be opposite to the limiting plane 62 of the column body 61, the sliding plate 71 moves to the maximum stroke position. At this time, the clamping rod 73 and the clamping plate 74 are in a separated state. In order to ensure complete release and receiving of the veterinary tool, the width of the limiting plane 62 is at least 2 times the width of the abutting block 63, so as to ensure that the clamping rod 73 and the clamping plate 74 remain in an open state for a certain period of time. In addition, the driving part 6 further comprises an image detection module. The image detection module comprises a camera and a processor. The camera is used to collect images of the clamping parts 7 between the two rotating drums 4 in real time. The processor compares the image features with a preset reference picture, so as to judge that the corresponding two clamping parts 7 reach the relative position between the two rotating drums 4, and further sends an execution command to the driving assembly to form intermittent rotation of the two rotating drums 4 for a set time.
[0028] Based on the above device structure, taking pliers, tweezers, surgical knives and small trays as examples, the cleaning method is performed according to the following steps: S1, adjust the two rotating drums 4 through the support frame 3, so that the clamping part 7 on one of the rotating drums 4 is located on the upper side of the cleaning container 1, and the clamping part 7 on the other rotating drum 4 is located on the lower side of the cleaning container 1.
[0029] S2, open the cleaning container 1, and clamp and fix the veterinary tools to be cleaned, that is, the pliers, tweezers, surgical knives and small trays one by one on the clamping parts 7 of the rotating drum 4 located at the upper part of the cleaning container 1. It should be noted that when fixing the veterinary tools to be cleaned, the corresponding clamping part 7 on the other rotating drum 4 should be in an empty state.
[0030] S3, close the cleaning container 1, start the spray assembly 2, spray and clean the veterinary tools clamped on the upper side of the cleaning container 1, and set the cleaning time.
[0031] S4, start the driving assembly 5 to drive the two rotating drums 4 to rotate synchronously, and keep the two spray ends of the spray assembly 2 in a spraying state.
[0032] S5, when the two clamping parts 7 corresponding to each other on the two rotating drums 4 rotate to positions opposite to each other, the driving parts 6 on the two clamping parts 7 are simultaneously started to drive the two clamping parts 7 to open at the same time, so that the veterinary tools in the upper clamping part 7 fall under the action of gravity and are transferred to the lower clamping part 7, realizing the transfer of the clamping position of the veterinary tools between the two clamping parts 7. It should be noted that after the veterinary tools fall into the lower clamping part 7, the driving part 6 corresponding to the lower clamping part 7 is immediately started to clamp the veterinary tools.
[0033] S6, through the rotation of the two rotating drums 4 and the cooperation of the driving parts 6, all the veterinary tools such as forceps, tweezers, scalpels and small trays are completely transferred to the lower side of the cleaning container 1, the driving parts are controlled to make all the veterinary tools completely avoid the position between the two rotating drums 4, then the driving assembly 5 is closed first, the spray assembly 2 is kept in the started state, and the cleaning time is set.
[0034] S7, close the spray assembly 2, end the cleaning, and take out the cleaned veterinary tools.
[0035] Example 2: Referring to Figure 4 Further, in order to improve the cleaning effect of the veterinary tools, a turnover assembly 9 is further arranged on one side of the cleaning container 1, the output end of the turnover driving assembly is connected with the support frame 3, and is used to drive the support frame 3 to turn over integrally with the two rotating drums 4 in the cleaning container 1, so as to periodically exchange the upper and lower positions of the two rotating drums 4. Specifically, the turnover assembly 9 comprises a turnover motor 91 and a turnover frame 92, the turnover motor 91 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the cleaning container 1, the turnover motor 91 is preferably a servo motor, the output end of the turnover motor 91 extends into the cleaning container 1 and is fixedly connected with the turnover frame 92, the turnover frame 92 has a U-shaped structure and is fixedly connected with the support frame 3, and the U-shaped structure can avoid interference in the self-rotation process of the rotating drum 4. Thus, during use, the support frame 3 can be periodically turned over by 180 degrees through the cooperation of the turnover motor 91 and the turnover frame 92. In this way, the cleaned veterinary tools can be periodically transferred on the two rotating drums 4, and multiple turnover cleaning of the veterinary tools can be realized, so as to ensure that the surface of the veterinary tools can be thoroughly cleaned.
[0036] Based on the above structure, the cleaning method is carried out according to the following steps: S1, open the cleaning container 1, and clamp and fix the veterinary tools to be cleaned one by one on the clamping portions 7 on the circumferential side of each rotating drum 4; it should be noted that when fixing the veterinary tools to be cleaned, no corresponding clamping portion 7 should be in the opposite state.
[0037] S2, close the cleaning container 1, and start the turnover motor 91 to drive the support frame 3 to adjust the two rotating drums 4, so that the rotating drum 4 clamping the veterinary tools turns one end of the veterinary tools to the upper side of the cleaning container 1. That is, the clamping portion 7 on one rotating drum 4 clamping the veterinary tools is located above the cleaning container 1, and the opening of the clamping portion 7 faces downward; the clamping portion 7 on the other rotating drum 4 is located below the cleaning container 1, and the opening of the clamping portion 7 faces upward.
[0038] S3, start the spraying assembly 2 and the driving motor 53. The two spraying ends of the spraying assembly 2 spray cleaning liquid from both sides to continuously spray the positions of the clamping portions 7 on the two rotating drums 4, and the driving motor 53 drives the two rotating drums 4 to rotate synchronously and slowly. The rotating speed of the rotating drum 4 can be set to 5 rpm-10 rpm. It should be noted that the starting of the spraying assembly 2 and the driving assembly 5 is not arranged in a sequence, and they can be started synchronously.
[0039] S4, when the two clamping portions 7 on the two rotating drums 4 rotate to the opposite positions, the driving portions 6 on the two clamping portions 7 act simultaneously to drive the two clamping portions 7 to open, so that the veterinary tools in the upper clamping portion 7 fall under the action of gravity and are transferred to the lower clamping portion 7, realizing the transfer of the clamping position of the veterinary tools between the two clamping portions 7. Until all the veterinary tools are completely transferred to the lower side of the cleaning container 1.
[0040] S5, first close the driving assembly 5, keep the spraying assembly 2 in the starting state, and then start the turnover assembly 9 to make the two rotating drums 4 rotate by 180 degrees, so that the veterinary tools transferred to the lower side of the cleaning container 1 are turned over to the upper side of the cleaning container 1. S6, repeat steps S3-S5 to set the cleaning period.
[0041] S7, when the cleaning is completed, the driving assembly 5 and the spraying assembly 2 are closed in sequence, and the cleaned veterinary tools are taken out.
[0042] Example 3: Referring to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, based on example 1 or 2, further, in order to improve the cleaning quality and ensure that the surface of the veterinary tools is cleaned thoroughly, an exchange cavity 10 fixed with the support frame 3 is arranged between the two rotating drums 4, and a gap 11 for the clamping plate 74 and the clamping rod 73 to enter and exit is arranged on the side wall of the exchange cavity 10, and the exchange cavity 10 is used for the simultaneous entry of the two corresponding clamping portions 7 in the two clamping assemblies. As Figure 5As shown, the side wall of the exchange cavity 10 adjacent to the rotating drum 4 is uniformly distributed with a plurality of spray heads 12 in the vertical direction, the spray heads 12 are communicated with the output end of the spraying assembly 2, and the spray heads 12 are used for spraying and washing the falling veterinary tools when the corresponding two clamping parts 7 are opened in the exchange cavity 10. Specifically, the setting of the exchange cavity 10 realizes the limiting of the exchange of the veterinary tools, and only one set of corresponding clamping parts 7 can enter the exchange cavity 10 at the same time, which can better ensure that the veterinary tools are not disturbed during the exchange process and can smoothly fall. At the same time, the spray heads 12 can wash the veterinary tools during the transfer process, which can better ensure that the surface of the veterinary tools is cleaned without dead angles.
[0043] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, further, in order to ensure that the veterinary tool exchange process can proceed smoothly. A gap is provided between the clamping plate 74 and the side wall of the rotating drum 4, and the end of the clamping plate 74 away from the sliding plate 71 is provided with a resilient guide block 16. The exchange cavity 10 is fixed with an arc-shaped guide strip 17 at the positions opposite to the two rotating drums 4, and the arc-shaped guide strip 17 is fixed to the upper and lower walls of the exchange cavity through a fixed plate 20. The arc-shaped guide strip 17 is in close contact with the outer wall of the rotating drum 4. When the clamping part 7 rotates into the exchange cavity 10, the resilient guide block 16 is in contact with the arc-shaped guide strip 17 and is elastically deformed, the end of the clamping plate 74 is tilted outward to form a guide slope for the veterinary tools to slide down, which greatly facilitates the sliding of the tools from the upper clamping part 7 to the lower clamping part 7, and ensures the success rate of exchange.
[0044] During the rotation of the rotating drum 4, whenever a clamping part 7 rotates to meet the corresponding clamping part 7 in the exchange cavity 10, and is in the upper and lower opposite positions, the abutting blocks 63 of the two clamping parts 7 move to the positions opposite to the limiting plane 62 of the column 61 at the same time, and the two clamping parts 7 are opened at the same time. The veterinary tools in the upper clamping part 7 fall under the action of gravity and are caught and clamped by the corresponding lower clamping part 7 which is in an open state. Under the continuous rotation of the rotating drum 4, the lower clamping part 7 closes to clamp the transferred veterinary tools and exits the exchange cavity 10. And at the moment when the veterinary tools fall, the spray heads 12 in the exchange cavity 10 spray cleaning liquid to focus on washing the tools, especially the original clamping part 7 just exposed. Thus, the cleaning effect is effectively improved, the surface of the veterinary tools is thoroughly cleaned, and the residue of pollutants is avoided.
[0045] Example 4: As shown in Figures 9 to 11 Further, in order to ensure that the surface of the veterinary tools can be fully cleaned and avoid the residue of pollutants, the clamping part 7 comprises two clamping rods 73, both of which are cylindrical rods, and the clamping rods 73 are rotationally connected with the sliding plate 71. The ends of the two clamping rods 73 close to the sliding plate 71 are respectively sleeved with a straight gear 13, and the two straight gears 13 are meshed.Figure 11 As shown, in order to ensure the safety of the veterinary tools, the sliding plate 71 is provided with a mounting cavity inside, two spur gears 13 are arranged in the mounting cavity, so as to ensure that when the veterinary tools are clamped, the veterinary tools are directly in contact with the surface of the sliding plate 71, and the electric rotary device 14 is embedded in the sliding plate 71, that is, the electric rotary device is embedded in the side wall of the mounting cavity, the output end of the electric rotary device 14 is fixedly connected with one of the clamping rods 73, the electric rotary device 14 adopts an electric motor or a direct current motor, and the side wall of the clamping rod 73 is provided with soft cleaning brush 15. During cleaning, the electric rotary device 14 is started, and under the meshing cooperation of the two spur gears 13, the two clamping rods 73 are slowly rotated, the clamping position of the veterinary tools is brushed by the cleaning brush 15, so that the surface of the veterinary tools can be fully cleaned, and the cleaning effect of the surface of the veterinary tools is improved, and safety guarantee is provided for subsequent repeated use.
