[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of manipulators, and in particular to a manipulator for hoisting a cleaning basket for a stop valve. Background Art

[0002] The globe valve, also called a stop valve, is the most widely used type of valve. It is popular because of the small friction between the sealing surfaces during opening and closing, its durability, small opening height, easy manufacturing, and convenient maintenance. It is suitable not only for medium and low pressures, but also for high pressures. The closing principle of the globe valve is to rely on the valve stem pressure to make the valve disc sealing surface fit closely with the valve seat sealing surface to prevent the flow of the medium.

[0003] The pipe body of the stop valve needs to be cleaned during the production process. In the prior art, the staff generally puts the pipe body directly into the cleaning pool for cleaning and then salvages it. This cleaning method has low work efficiency, poor cleaning effect, and high labor intensity.

[0004] Therefore, our company has developed a cleaning equipment specially used for cleaning stop valves, which includes a cleaning machine and a cleaning basket.

At the same time, in order to make the washing basket move up and down accurately, reliably and stably, linear slide rails are installed on both sides of the bracket 1;

[0029] The hoisting mechanism includes a hoisting assembly 3 symmetrically mounted on the lifting frame 23, the hoisting assembly 3 includes a decoupling cylinder 31, a slider 32 and a suspension rod 33, the two ends of the slider 32 are symmetrically fixed with suspension rods 33, one side of the suspension rod 33 has a hook portion 331 folded outward, the slider 32 is slidably connected to the lifting frame 23, the decoupling cylinder 31 is fixed to the lifting frame 23, and is used to drive the slider 32 to move along the length direction of the lifting shaft 22;

[0030] An upper detection mounting member 4 and a lower detection mounting member 5 are respectively provided on the upper and lower sides of the bracket 1 , and both the upper detection mounting member 4 and the lower detection mounting member 5 are displacement sensors.

[0031] Reference Figure 3-5 A power mechanism 6 for driving the washing basket to rotate is also provided on one side of the bottom of the bracket 1. The power mechanism 6 includes a driving motor 61, a slide 62, a moving cylinder 63, a rotating wheel 64 and a connecting frame 11. The connecting frame 11 is fixed on the bracket 1, the slide 62 is slidably installed on the connecting frame 11, the moving cylinder 63 is fixed on the connecting frame 11, and is used to drive the slide 62 to move, the driving motor 61 is fixed on the slide 62, and the rotating wheel 64 is fixed on the output shaft of the driving motor 61.

Specifically, a plurality of mounting holes are opened on the surface of the rotating wheel 64, and a transmission rod 641 is movably connected in the mounting hole, and a spring 642 is connected between the transmission rod 641 and the mounting hole.

[0032] By providing a power mechanism 6, when the lifting mechanism lifts the cleaning basket and moves it to the upper detection mounting part 4 (i.e., the upper protection position of the lifting high position), the moving cylinder 63 pushes the driving motor 61 to approach the cleaning basket, and the transmission rod 641 on the rotating wheel 64 is inserted into the turntable of the central axis.
