Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and more specifically to a cleaning device for insulating gloves used in live-line work. Background Technology

[0002] In live-line work, YS insulating gloves are core protective equipment for ensuring the personal safety of workers. Their insulation performance and hygiene directly affect work safety and personnel health. Currently, the cleaning methods for insulating gloves mainly rely on manual wiping or simple rinsing, which presents the following problems: 1. Incomplete cleaning: Manual cleaning cannot reach the folds inside the gloves. Long-term accumulation of sweat residue and dirt can easily breed bacteria, causing the inside of the gloves to smell bad and causing health problems such as skin allergies and infections for workers. 2. Risk of damage to insulation performance: Some cleaning methods use strong acid and alkali cleaning agents or high-pressure washing, which can easily damage the insulation layer structure of the gloves, reduce insulation performance, and create safety hazards. 3. Low efficiency: Manual cleaning is time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it difficult to meet the rapid processing needs of batches of gloves; Existing automatic glove cleaning devices (such as patent number CN202323299846.0) are mainly designed for dipped gloves used in industrial production. They adopt a roller brush cleaning + high-pressure spray structure, but do not consider the special protection requirements of insulating gloves, which poses a risk of damage to the insulation layer. Furthermore, they lack targeted sterilization and deodorization functions and cannot meet the usage needs of live-line working scenarios.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a dedicated cleaning device that combines cleaning effectiveness, insulation protection, and automated operation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a live-line working insulating glove cleaning device to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0005] This invention provides the following technical solution: A live-line working insulating glove cleaning device includes a water tank and a circulating conveyor belt. Clamps for holding the cuffs of insulating gloves are evenly arranged along the conveying track of the circulating conveyor belt. An ultrasonic cleaner is installed in the water tank. An inflation component, a first inflation / deflation component, and a sterilization and drying module are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the circulating conveyor belt. The area where the circulating conveyor belt is located in the inflation component and the first inflation / deflation component is located in the water tank and is designated as the first cleaning area. The area where the circulating conveyor belt is located between the first inflation / deflation component and the sterilization and drying module is located in the water tank and is set as the second cleaning area. A first flipping component is provided at the position corresponding to the first inflation / deflation component to flip the clamp up and down; The corresponding position of the sterilization and drying module is provided with a second flipping component for flipping the clamp up and down, and a second inflation and deflation component.

[0006] Preferably, the ultrasonic cleaner includes a low-frequency ultrasonic generator and a temperature control system; the low-frequency ultrasonic generator operates at a frequency of 28kHz-40kHz and has adjustable power; the temperature control system stabilizes the temperature of the cleaning solution in the pool at 30℃-40℃.

[0009] Preferably, the hollow cylinder has a hollow interior with openings at both ends at the vertical end, and the clamp also includes a flexible plug with elastic deformation capability, which is used to open and close the opening on the side of the hollow cylinder's vertical end away from the horizontal end.

[0010] Preferably, a rotating shaft is provided on the outside of the fixed seat, and the rotating shaft is connected to a movable shaft through a magnetic clutch. One end of the movable shaft is fixed on the circulating conveyor belt.

[0011] Preferably, a gear is coaxially mounted on the rotating shaft, and both the first and second flipping components are rack structures that mesh with the gear, rotating 180° when the gear meshes with the corresponding rack structure; and a magnetic component is mounted on the rack structure, which magnetically engages with the magnetic clutch to control the magnetic clutch to be in a disengaged state.

[0012] Preferably, the flexible plug has a channel extending through its opposite sides.

[0013] Preferably, the inflation assembly includes a first lifting device and a first air needle installed at the movable end of the first lifting device.

The inner contour of the sleeve is adapted to the outer contour of the flexible plug and the outer contour of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder. A second air needle is provided inside the sleeve. The second air needle is inserted into the inner cavity of the hollow cylinder through the channel on the flexible plug for inflating or deflating the insulating glove. The push block inside the sleeve is driven by a telescopic component to move along the lifting direction of the second lifting device. The circulating conveyor belt adopts intermittent motion; the first inflation / deflation assembly and the second inflation / deflation assembly are respectively driven by the first moving assembly and the second moving assembly to move along the local trajectory of the corresponding circulating conveyor belt in a consistent manner; The structure of the second inflation / deflation assembly is similar to that of the first inflation / deflation assembly.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial technical effects: The inner and outer surfaces of the insulating gloves of this invention are interchangeable.

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example: A device for cleaning insulating gloves for live-line work, such as Figures 1-4As shown, it includes a water tank 1, a circulating conveyor belt 2, a clamp 3, an ultrasonic cleaner 4, a sterilization and drying module 5, an inflation assembly 6, a first inflation / deflation assembly 7, a first tilting assembly 8, a first moving assembly 9, a second tilting assembly 10, a second inflation / deflation assembly 11, and a second moving assembly 12. Multiple ultrasonic cleaners 4 are evenly installed in a water tank 1, which contains cleaning fluid. A temperature control component is also installed in the water tank 1 to keep the temperature of the cleaning fluid within a set range.

[0020] The circulating conveyor belt 2 is driven by an intermittent motion power device to achieve equidistant intermittent movement. Multiple sets of clamps 3 are evenly distributed on the side of the circulating conveyor belt 2 along its movement trajectory. When the circulating conveyor belt 2 moves equidistantly once, the clamps 3 move to the original position of the next adjacent set of clamps 3.

[0021] The clamp 3 includes a hollow cylinder 31, a fixed seat 32, a rotating shaft 33, a movable shaft 34, a magnetic clutch 35, a gear 36, and a plug 37. One end of the movable shaft 34 is fixed relative to the side wall of the circulating conveyor belt 2, and the other end of the movable shaft 34 is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft 33 through the magnetic clutch 35. The gear 36 is coaxially fixedly installed on the outer side wall of the rotating shaft 33. The fixed seat 32 is fixed at the end of the rotating shaft 33 away from the movable shaft 34. The hollow cylinder 31 is internally threaded to the fixed seat 32, and the center of the hollow cylinder 31 is consistent with its thread direction and perpendicular to the rotating shaft 33. The hollow cylinder 31 is a rotating body with a T-shaped cross-section. The hollow cylinder 31 is designed with openings at both ends along its vertical direction and is hollow inside. The outer diameter of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31 is adapted to the inner diameter of the cuff of the insulating glove. The insulating glove has a certain elastic deformation capability, so that the cuff of the insulating glove can be tightly fitted onto the outer wall of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31. Then, the hollow cylinder 31 is manually driven to rotate spirally relative to the fixed seat 32, so that the horizontal end of the hollow cylinder 31 and the fixed seat 32 cooperate to clamp and fix the cuff of the insulating glove.

[0022] The stopper 37 is made of a flexible material with elastic deformation. The stopper 37 has a two-stage stepped structure. The outer diameter of the smaller section matches the inner diameter of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31, and the outer diameter of the larger section matches the outer diameter of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31. A through channel 371 is provided between the upper and lower surfaces of the stopper 37. Due to the elastic deformation capability of the stopper 37, the channel 371 is closed by the action of the stopper 37 itself under normal conditions.

[0023] The circulating conveyor belt 2 is partially located within the water tank 1, forming a first cleaning zone and a second cleaning zone. The direction of movement of the circulating conveyor belt 2 is as follows: Figure 1As indicated by the arrows, an inflation component 6 is installed in front of the conveyor in the first cleaning zone. A first inflation / deflation component 7, a first tilting component 8, and a first moving component 9 are installed between the first and second cleaning zones and above the water tank 1. A sterilization and drying module 5 is installed behind the conveyor in the second cleaning zone. A second inflation / deflation component 11, a second moving component 12, and a second tilting component 10 are installed at the location of the sterilization and drying module 5.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the inflation assembly 6 includes a first lifting device 61 and a first air needle 62. The first air needle 62 is installed opposite to the downward-facing output end of the first lifting device 61, and the input end of the first air needle 62 is connected to an external positive pressure air source. like Figure 4 As shown, the first inflation / deflation assembly 7 includes a second lifting device 71, a sleeve 72, and a second air needle 73. The sleeve 72 is installed opposite to the downward-facing output end of the second lifting device 71. The sleeve 72 is hollow inside with an open lower end. The inner cavity of the sleeve 72 is adapted to the outer diameter of the larger section of the plug 37 and the outer diameter of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31. The inner cavity of the sleeve 72 also houses the second air needle 73. The input end of the second air needle 73 is connected to an external positive pressure air source and a negative pressure air source through a three-way valve. A telescopic assembly 74 is installed on the outer wall of the sleeve 72. The telescopic end of the telescopic assembly 74 extends into the sleeve 72 and is fitted with a push block 75. The lifting direction of the second lifting device 71 is consistent with the telescopic direction of the telescopic assembly 74.

[0025] The second inflation / deflation assembly 11 has a similar structure and the same function as the first inflation / deflation assembly 7, so it will not be described in detail here. The first moving component 9 and the second moving component 12 can be linearly moved by means of a gear and rack transmission structure, a screw transmission mechanism, a telescopic cylinder structure, etc. The first moving component 9 is used to drive the first inflation / deflation component 7 to move linearly (consistent with the local movement trajectory of the adjacent circulating conveyor belt 2), and the second moving component 12 is used to drive the second inflation / deflation component 11 to move linearly (consistent with the local movement trajectory of the adjacent circulating conveyor belt 2).

[0026] The first flipping assembly 8 and the second flipping assembly 10 have similar structures. Both can adopt a rack structure that is fixed relative to the ground. The rack structure meshes with the gear 36, and a corresponding magnetic component is also installed on the rack structure. The magnetic component is magnetically (attracted or repelled) engaged with the magnetic clutch 35.

[0027] Working principle: The circulating conveyor belt 2 moves intermittently. During its stationary period, the staff manually puts the cuff of the insulating glove to be cleaned onto the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31 (the cuff of the insulating glove and the plug 37 of the hollow cylinder 31 face downwards), and rotates the hollow cylinder 31 so that its horizontal end is close to the fixed seat 32. The cuff of the insulating glove put on the outer wall of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31 is clamped by the cooperation between the horizontal end of the hollow cylinder 31 and the fixed seat 32.

[0028] When the circulating conveyor belt 2 moves the insulating glove to the working position below the inflation assembly 6 (with the cuff of the insulating glove and the plug 37 of the hollow cylinder 31 facing upwards), while the circulating conveyor belt 2 is stationary, the first lifting device 61 drives the first air needle 62 to descend vertically. During this process, the first air needle 62 passes through the channel 371, penetrates the plug 37, and enters the inner cavity of the hollow cylinder 31. The external positive pressure air source is delivered to the inner cavity of the hollow cylinder 31 through the first air needle 62 and enters the inside of the insulating glove, inflating the inside of the insulating glove to prevent wrinkles. Afterwards, the first lifting device 61 drives the first air needle 62 to rise vertically and return to its original position.

[0029] After being inflated, the insulated gloves continue to move under the conveyor belt 2 to the first cleaning zone for cleaning.

[0030] Then, it continues to move forward to the first working position on the left side of the first inflation / deflation assembly 7. During the period when the circulating conveyor belt 2 is stationary, the second lifting device 71 drives the sleeve 72 to descend vertically a set distance L1. During this process, the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31, together with its plug 371, is inserted into the matching sleeve 72. The second air needle 73 passes through the channel 371, penetrates the plug 37, and enters the inner cavity of the hollow cylinder 31. Then, the external negative pressure air source extracts the gas inside the insulating glove through the second air needle 73. After that, the second lifting device 71... The lowering device 71 drives the sleeve 72 to rise vertically a set distance L2. At this time, the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31 is still inside the sleeve 72. The second air needle 73 is pulled out and separated from the plug 37. Under the action of negative pressure, the plug 371 is first attracted away from the opening of the sleeve 72, and the second air needle 73 passes through the channel 371 and penetrates the plug 37 again. Under the continued action of negative pressure, the insulating glove is turned inward and enters the sleeve 72 through the hollow cylinder 31. The large inner cavity of the sleeve 72 provides space to accommodate the insulating glove. Afterward, the second lifting device 71 drives the sleeve 72 to rise vertically and reset.

[0031] After being flipped, the insulating glove continues to move one station under the conveyor belt 2. At the same time, the first moving component 9 drives the first inflation / deflation component 7 to move to the right to the second working position, which is still above the flipped insulating glove. During this process, the clamp 3 that clamps the flipped insulating glove passes the first flipping component 8. As the clamp 3 approaches the rack structure of the first flipping component 8, the magnetic clutch 35 in the clamp 3, which was originally in the engaged state, is disengaged by the magnetic force of the magnetic element on the rack structure. Thus, when the gear 36 in the clamp 3 meshes with the rack structure, the movement of the gear 36 is converted into its own rotation of 180°, thereby realizing the rotation of the hollow cylinder 31 by 180° (the horizontal end of the hollow cylinder 31 is facing upward), so that the cuff of the flipped insulating glove faces upward. After the gear 36 completely passes over the meshing rack structure and moves away, the magnetic clutch 35 is reduced by the magnetic force of the magnetic element on the rack structure and returns to the engaged state.

[0032] Subsequently, while the circulating conveyor belt 2 is stationary, the second lifting device 71, which is in the second working position, drives the sleeve 72 to descend vertically by a set distance L3, so that the lower surface of the sleeve 72 presses against the upper surface of the horizontal end of the hollow cylinder 31. Then, the external positive pressure air source is delivered to the inside of the sleeve 72 through the second air needle 73, thereby causing the inner cavity of the flipped insulating glove to inflate and prevent wrinkles. After that, the telescopic component 74 drives the push block 75 to descend, and the descending push block 75 pushes the plug 37 that is in contact with it to descend and insert it into the upper opening of the vertical end of the hollow cylinder 31 to close it. During this process, the plug 37 can elastically deform and reduce its outer diameter by one circle. Then, the telescopic component 74 drives the push block 75 to rise and reset, and the second lifting device 71 drives the sleeve 72 to rise and reset. The first moving component 9 drives the first inflation / deflation component 7 to move to the left and reset to the first working position.

[0033] After being flipped over and inflated, the insulated gloves continue to be conveyed by the circulating conveyor belt 2 through the second cleaning zone for cleaning.

[0034] The gloves are then conveyed by the recirculating conveyor belt 2 to the sterilization and drying module 5, where they are sterilized and dried. After sterilization and drying on the outside of the gloves, the gloves are inflated again by the second flipping component 10, the second air extraction component 11, and the second moving component 12, and then sterilized and dried again. The specific process is detailed above and will not be repeated here.

[0035] Finally, the stopper 37 returns to the opening on the side of the original hollow tube 31, away from its horizontal end, to facilitate subsequent new processes.

[0036] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of specific implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
