Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cleaning, in particular to a device which uses a jet spraying method to clean the outer surface and blind holes of a camshaft. Background Art

[0002] A certain type of camshaft is about 1 meter long and has a blind hole. The centerline of the blind hole is arranged along the axis of the camshaft and the depth is close to 1 meter. The blind hole is used as an oil passage. When drilling radial holes in the camshaft, iron filings will enter the blind hole. The blind hole needs to be cleaned to ensure that the cleanliness of the camshaft meets the requirements.

[0003] There are two main existing cleaning methods: the first is cleaning by spraying + ultrasonic waves, and the second is cleaning by jets. External spraying + ultrasonic waves has a good cleaning effect on the outer surface of the camshaft, but it is not effective at the bottom of the blind hole. Under ultrasonic vibration, iron filings cannot be smoothly discharged from the blind hole. Jet cleaning of the blind hole from the outside of the blind hole, due to the large depth and small aperture of the blind hole, the jet cannot fully enter the blind hole. The jet can only clean the orifice area, and the cleaning effect on the bottom of the blind hole is not good, and the entire hole wall and bottom of the blind hole cannot be cleaned.

Due to the large depth of the blind hole, it is not easy to clean the inside of the blind hole. The utility model extends the flushing rod into the blind hole to perform jet cleaning to ensure that the cleanliness of the camshaft meets the requirements. Figure 1 The camshaft cleaning device of the utility model comprises a frame 1, a movable frame 2 and a roller 3. The frame 1 plays a supporting role and is generally a metal frame. In order to facilitate the movement of the frame 1, a universal wheel 8 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1, for example, a universal wheel 8 is respectively arranged at the four corners of the bottom of the frame 1. Among the four universal wheels 8, at least one universal wheel 8 is equipped with a brake, for example, two universal wheels 8 are equipped with brakes.

[0020] The mobile frame 2 is mounted on the frame 1 and can reciprocate along a straight line. In order to facilitate the stable reciprocating motion of the mobile frame 2, the direction of the reciprocating motion is preferably horizontal. The reciprocating motion of the mobile frame 2 can be driven manually or automatically. For example, the frame 1 is equipped with a second driving device that drives the mobile frame 2 to reciprocate along a straight line. For example, the second driving device is a cylinder. In order to ensure the stability of the reciprocating motion of the mobile frame 2 and avoid the reciprocating motion from being offset, at least two sets of sliding mechanisms are provided between the frame 1 and the mobile frame 2. For example, the sliding mechanism includes a slide rail and a slide groove adapted to the slide rail.

[0021] The mobile frame 2 is equipped with at least two rollers 3, each roller 3 is arranged along a straight line, each roller 3 is connected by a rotating shaft 4, the rotating shaft 4 is used to drive each roller 3 to rotate synchronously, and the axial direction of the rotating shaft 4 is consistent with the reciprocating direction of the mobile frame 2. The rotating shaft 4 is also connected to a first driving device for driving the roller 3 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 4, and the first driving device is generally a motor and equipped with a reducer. The roller 3 is used to be inserted between two adjacent cams of the camshaft, and can drive the camshaft to reciprocate synchronously with the mobile frame 2 along its axial direction. The roller 3 rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft 4, and the camshaft is driven to rotate around its axis by friction. The diameters of the rollers 3 are consistent, and the thickness of the rollers 3 is not greater than the net spacing between the two adjacent cams of the camshaft, so that each roller 3 can be inserted between the two adjacent cams of the camshaft. In order to ensure that there should be a sufficiently large friction coefficient between the roller 3 and the camshaft to ensure that the camshaft and the roller 3 rotate synchronously, the tread of the roller 3 is a non-slip material, for example, the material of the roller 3 is resin or rubber.

The center line of the flushing rod 5 is parallel to the axis of the rotating shaft 4. One end of the flushing rod 5 is a cantilevered end. The cantilevered section of the flushing rod 5 is located at the camshaft placement position to ensure that when the camshaft reciprocates with the moving frame 2, the flushing rod 5 can smoothly extend into the blind hole and can also be smoothly pulled out of the blind hole.
