The outer bottoms of the two lower shelves 904 that are away from each other are provided with driven wheels 905. A placement box 3 for storing tools is rotatably connected between the two lower shelves 904, and the driven wheel 905 is connected to the placement box 3 through a connecting shaft. The driving wheel 906 and the driven wheel 905 are connected by a synchronous belt to realize belt transmission. In use, the rotary motor 901 is started, and the rotary motor 901 can simultaneously drive the driving shafts 902, the two driving wheels 906 and the two driven wheels 905 at both ends to rotate, and finally realize the flipping and cleaning of the placement box 3 for storing tools.

[0027] The outer box 1 is fixedly arranged, and a lifting drive device 7 is arranged between the box cover 2 and the outer box 1. The lifting drive device 7 can be a telescopic mechanism driven by pneumatic or hydraulic means.

[0029] Combination Figures 3 to 5 As shown, a cover opening mechanism 8 is provided between the placement box 3 and the frame cover 4. The cover opening mechanism 8 comprises a rectangular frame 801 and a threaded rod 802, wherein the rectangular frame 801 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the placement box 3, the threaded rod 802 is rotatably connected inside the rectangular frame 801, the bottom end of the threaded rod 802 is fixedly connected to a knob, the outer surface of the threaded rod 802 is threadedly connected to a threaded plate 803, the threaded plate 803 is slidably connected inside the rectangular frame 801, two symmetrical vertical plates 804 are fixedly connected at both ends of the threaded plate 803, the sides of the two vertical plates 804 away from the threaded plate 803 all penetrate the rectangular frame 801 and extend to the outside of the rectangular frame 801, the ends of the two vertical plates 804 away from the threaded plate 803 are fixedly connected to the frame cover 4 respectively, and a guide groove adapted to the vertical plate 804 is provided inside the rectangular frame 801. When in use, the threaded plate 803 can drive the frame cover 4 to open or close through the vertical plate 804 by rotating the knob at the end of the threaded rod 802.

[0030] The outer box 1 is provided with a cleaning part, which mainly includes an ultrasonic cleaner, and the ultrasonic cleaner includes a transducer 5 and a controller 6. The transducer 5 is installed in the bottom wall of the bottom of the outer box 1. The principle of the ultrasonic cleaning machine is mainly to convert the sound energy of the power ultrasonic frequency source into mechanical vibration through the transducer 5. When in use, the ultrasonic wave is radiated to the cleaning liquid in the outer box 1 through the bottom wall of the outer box 1. Due to the radiation of the ultrasonic wave, the microbubbles in the liquid in the outer box 1 can maintain vibration under the action of the sound wave. The bubbles will expand rapidly and then suddenly close. During this process, a shock wave is generated at the moment of bubble closure, which generates a pressure of 1012-1013pa around the bubbles. The huge pressure generated by this ultrasonic cavitation can destroy insoluble dirt and make them differentiated in the solution. The placement box 3, the frame cover 4 and the grille 10 are all woven meshes, so that the cleaning liquid can be better poured into the interior of the placement box 3. A drain pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the outer box 1, and a valve is installed on the outer surface of the drain pipe. After the valve is opened, the cleaning liquid inside the outer box 1 will be discharged through the drain pipe.

[0031] When cleaning machine tools, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, firstly, a batch of mechanical tools are placed in each grid 10 inside the placement box 3 to avoid contact between adjacent mechanical tools and the generation of a cleaning dead angle, and then the knob is turned counterclockwise, the knob can drive the threaded rod 802 to rotate counterclockwise, and the threaded rod 802 can drive the threaded plate 803 and the frame cover 4 to move downward, and when the frame cover 4 moves to contact with the upper surface of the placement box 3, the mechanical tools can be prevented from falling out of the placement box 3, and then the lifting drive device 7 is started to drive the box cover 2, the placement box 3 and the mechanical tools to move downward, and when the box cover 2 moves to contact with the upper surface of the outer box 1, the placement box 3 and the mechanical tools are moved downward. The mechanical tools will be completely immersed in the cleaning liquid inside the outer box 1, and then the lifting drive device 7 is turned off and the ultrasonic cleaner is started. The ultrasonic cleaner can control the microbubbles in the cleaning liquid inside the outer box 1 to directly and repeatedly impact the debris on the mechanical tools, thereby cleaning the mechanical tools; at the same time, in order to avoid cleaning dead corners of the mechanical tools, the rotating motor 901 is controlled to start and drive the placement box 3 to rotate horizontally. The rotation speed should be controlled within 6r / min. After cleaning, when the tools need to be salvaged, the rotating motor 901 and the cleaning part are controlled to stop, and the lifting drive device 7 is started to extend, so that the placement box 3 is automatically raised, and then the basket cover 4 can be opened to remove the cleaned tools.

[0032] Embodiment 2, combined with Figures 6 to 7As shown, a batch cleaning device for mechanical tools is provided. The difference from the first embodiment is that the placement box 3 is a cylindrical shape with the rotation center arranged horizontally. The placement box 3 is provided with openings 31 on two radially opposite sides respectively. The outsides of the two radially opposite openings 31 are provided with barrel covers 32 with arc-shaped cross sections respectively. The two barrel covers 32 are respectively connected to connecting frames 321 at both axial ends respectively. The symmetric axes of the two barrel covers 32 are coaxially connected to the rotation axes at both ends of the placement box 3 through the connecting frames 321. A plurality of cells 30 are provided in the placement box 3, each cell 30 is communicated with the opening 31 respectively, a locking handle 33 is provided between the barrel cover 32 and the placement box 3 and is locked by a thread, and a lid opening handle 34 is provided in the outer wall of the barrel cover 32.

[0033] When using, combine Figures 6 to 7 As shown, by rotating the barrel cover 32, the two opposite openings 31 can be opened at the same time, and the tools to be cleaned can be placed at two stations at the same time, which improves the operation efficiency. By setting the cells 30 of different sizes, tools of different sizes can be stored, and the adaptability is strong. After the placement is completed, the barrel cover 32 is rotated in the opposite direction to close the placement box 3, and the barrel cover 32 and the placement box 3 are locked by tightening the locking handle 33 to prevent the tools from being thrown out during the flipping of the placement box 3. Here, the side walls of the placement box 3, the barrel cover 32 and the cell 30 are all mesh-shaped with certain permeability.

[0034] The control method of the present invention is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be realized by simple programming by technicians in this field, which belongs to the common knowledge in this field. Therefore, the present invention will not explain the control method and circuit connection in detail.
