[0027] To make the technical solution of the present utility model clearer, the following further describes the present utility model in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] As Figure 1-2 , this embodiment provides a cleaning device for the rotor of a rheometer, including: an outer shell 1, the outer shell 1 includes a housing 11 and a cover 12 that are detachably connected to each other; at least one cleaning assembly 2, the cleaning assembly 2 includes three roller brush units 21 arranged in a ring, an accommodation cavity 23 formed within the three roller brushes, and three gas-liquid injection units 22 arranged in a ring. The three roller brush units 21 and the three gas-liquid injection units 22 are arranged alternately, and the three roller brush units 21 and the three gas-liquid injection units 22 are both located within the housing 11.

[0030] Specifically, when cleaning is required, first place the rotor 5 of the rheometer in the accommodation cavity 23, then fit the cover 12 and the housing 11, and finally start the three roller brush units 21 and the three gas-liquid injection units 22 simultaneously to facilitate automatic cleaning of the rotor 5; In summary, the cleaning device for the rotor 5 of the rheometer in this application facilitates automatic cleaning of the rotor 5, without the need for manual use of a brush to clean the relatively high-temperature rotor 5 at close range, which helps prevent staff from being scalded. At the same time, the detachably connected housing 11 and cover 12 facilitate cleaning the rotor 5 of the rheometer in this application in a relatively closed environment and prevent the materials cleaned from the rotor 5 from splashing.

[0031] Among them, the detachable connection between the housing 11 and the cover 12 not only facilitates the taking and placing of the rotor 5 but also facilitates cleaning the rotor 5 in a relatively closed environment; the arrangement of the three roller brush units 21 in a ring facilitates the formation of the accommodation cavity 23, thereby facilitating the accommodation cavity 23 to exert an effective radial limiting effect on the rotor 5, and the three roller brush units 21 are used for comprehensive brushing of the rotor 5; the three gas-liquid injection units 22 are used for comprehensive flushing of the rotor 5; the number of cleaning assemblies 2 is at least one. When the number of cleaning assemblies 2 is one, it facilitates the cleaning device for the rotor 5 of the rheometer in this application to clean one rotor 5. When the number of cleaning assemblies 2 is two or more, it facilitates the cleaning device for the rotor 5 of the rheometer in this application to clean two or more rotors 5 simultaneously.

[0032] Further, as shown in Figure 1 , the roller brush unit 21 includes: a driver; a roller 211 connected to the output shaft of the driver; a plurality of bristles 212 connected to the outside of the roller 211; wherein, the driver, the roller 211 and the plurality of bristles 212 are all located inside the housing 11. Specifically, when cleaning is required, the output shaft of the driver drives the roller 211 to rotate, the roller 211 drives the plurality of bristles 212 to rotate, and the plurality of bristles 212 perform a comprehensive brushing action on the rotor 5; the driver can be specifically connected inside the housing 11, and the driver can be a servo motor, a stepper motor, etc.; the material of the plurality of bristles 212 is preferably flexible metal such as soft copper wire, which is convenient for preventing damage to the rotor 5 while ensuring the cleaning performance.

[0033] Further, as shown in Figure 1 , the gas-liquid injection unit 22 includes a gas injection module and a liquid injection module both located inside the housing 11. Specifically, the gas injection module is mainly used to inject high-pressure gas, which is convenient for flushing the rotor 5 with the high-pressure gas; the liquid injection module is mainly used to inject cleaning liquids such as alcohol.

[0034] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , the gas injection module includes: an air pump; a plurality of gas nozzles 221 all communicated with the air pump; wherein, the air pump and the plurality of gas nozzles 221 are all located inside the housing 11; the liquid injection module includes: a liquid storage tank; a pump body, one end of the pump body is communicated with the liquid storage tank; a plurality of liquid nozzles 222 all communicated with the other end of the pump body; wherein, the liquid storage tank, the pump body and the plurality of liquid nozzles 222 are all located inside the housing 11. Specifically, the air pump can be specifically connected inside the housing 11, and the air pump is used to provide high-pressure gas and discharge it to the rotor 5 through the plurality of gas nozzles 221; the liquid storage tank can be specifically connected inside the housing 11, and the liquid storage tank is used to store cleaning liquids such as alcohol and discharge it to the rotor 5 through the pump body and the plurality of liquid nozzles 222.

[0035] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , the plurality of gas nozzles 221 and the plurality of liquid nozzles 222 are arranged axially staggered along the axial direction of the roller brush unit 21. Specifically, the axial staggered arrangement is convenient for making the high-pressure gas and the cleaning liquid discharged to the rotor 5 be axially staggered, so as to increase the cleaning uniformity of the rotor 5.

[0036] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , the gas-liquid injection unit 22 further includes a fixing plate 223 connected inside the housing 11, and the plurality of gas nozzles 221 and the plurality of liquid nozzles 222 are both connected to the fixing plate 223. Specifically, the fixing plate 223 is carried by the housing 11 and is used to carry the plurality of gas nozzles 221 and the plurality of liquid nozzles 222.

[0037] Further, as shown in Figure 1-2, it further includes a filter screen 3 connected inside the housing 11. The three roller brush units 21 and the three gas-liquid injection units 22 both penetrate through the filter screen 3. Specifically, the filter screen 3 is used to support the rotor 5 to a certain extent, and enables the materials cleaned from the rotor 5 to be discharged in time, ensuring the cleanliness of the surface of the filter screen 3 and preventing the materials cleaned from the rotor 5 from adhering to the rotor 5 again.

[0038] Furthermore, as Figure 1-2 , the filter screen 3 and the housing 11 are detachably connected. Specifically, the detachable connection facilitates the timely replacement of the filter screen 3.

[0039] Furthermore, as Figure 2 , it further includes a collection bin 4 detachably connected to the housing 11. Along the direction of gravity, the filter screen 3 and the collection bin 4 are arranged in sequence. Specifically, the collection bin 4 is used to collect the materials cleaned from the rotor 5 from the filter screen 3. Since the collection bin 4 and the housing 11 are detachably connected, it is convenient to pour out the materials cleaned from the rotor 5 in the collection bin 4 in time.

[0040] Furthermore, as Figure 1-2 , it further includes a handle 41 connected to the collection bin 4. Specifically, the handle 41 facilitates the staff to hold, thereby facilitating the staff to achieve the detachable connection between the collection bin 4 and the housing 11.

[0041] The above embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present utility model shall be subject to the appended claims.
