The upper turntable 6 and the lower turntable 8 protrude laterally from the box body 7, and the circumferential side wall surfaces of the upper turntable 6 and the lower turntable 8 are covered with brushes 10. A shaft rod 70 extends upward from the top of the box body 7. A rope 2 is also included. One end of the rope 2 is tied to the hanging ring at the end of the shaft rod 70, and the other end of the rope 2 is sleeved on the rope winding and unwinding mechanism 1.

[0036] During use, the box body 7 is placed in an external pipeline to be cleaned. The brushes 10 on the circumferences of the upper turntable 6 and the lower turntable 8 are attached to the inner wall surface of the pipeline. Through the rotation of the upper turntable 6 and the lower turntable 8, and by pulling the box body 7 along the length direction of the pipeline by the rope 2, the automatic cleaning of the pipeline is realized.

[0037] In this embodiment, through the setting of the upper and lower double-layer turntables, and the two-layer turntables rotate in opposite directions, the overall balance and stability of the box body 7 during the cleaning operation are effectively maintained, the force is balanced, which helps to improve the service life and use effect of the cleaning device.

[0038] As Figure 4 shown, an upper plate 71 and a lower plate 72 are installed in the box body 7 at an upper and lower interval. A upper gear 94 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the upper turntable 6 above the upper plate 71, and a lower gear 95 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the lower turntable 8 below the lower plate 72. One of the upper gear 94 and the lower gear 95 is driven to rotate by the motor assembly 91, and drives the other to rotate in reverse synchronously through the transmission mechanism.

[0039] In this embodiment, the rotational power is transmitted between the upper gear 94 and the lower gear 95 through the transmission mechanism, so as to drive the upper turntable 6 and the lower turntable 8 to rotate simultaneously under the drive of the same power.

[0040] The structure of the transmission mechanism is as follows: it includes a transmission shaft 90 that penetrates up and down and is rotatably installed on the upper plate 71 and the lower plate 72. The transmission gears 92 at both ends of the transmission shaft 90 are directly meshed with one of the upper gear 94 and the lower gear 95, and are meshed with the other through an intermediate gear 93 to form a two-stage meshing transmission, as Figure 3 shown.

[0041] In this embodiment, the structure layout of the rotation driving mechanism 9 can be: the output end of the motor assembly 91 installed inside the box body 7 is connected downwardly with a rotating shaft 96, and the lower gear 95 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 96; the lower gear 95 is externally meshed with the transmission gear 92 at the lower end of the transmission shaft 90; the transmission gear 92 at the upper end of the transmission shaft 90 is externally meshed with the intermediate gear 93, and the intermediate gear 93 is externally meshed with the upper gear 94, so that the upper gear 94 and the lower gear 95 rotate in opposite directions simultaneously.

[0042] The box body 7 is of a rectangular cylindrical structure, as Figure 5 shown. The lower edge of the box body 7 extends downward and is equipped with a bottom plate 73. A through hole for accommodating the lower gear 95 is provided in the middle of the bottom plate 73. A flanging 730 extends downward from the edge of the through hole.

[0043] In this embodiment, the fitting of the flanging 730 and the annular groove 81 realizes the guiding function of the rotation of the lower turntable 8 relative to the box body 7, and can effectively prevent external dirt from entering the interior of the box body 7 through the settings of the bottom plate 73 and the flanging 730.

[0044] As Figure 6 shown, the upper edge of the box body 7 extends upward. The interior of the box body 7 between the upper plate 71 and the upper turntable 6 constitutes an accommodation space, and the upper gear 94 is accommodated in the accommodation space.

[0045] In this embodiment, a flanging folded inward can be fitted to the upper edge of the box body 7 to help reduce or even avoid external dirt from entering the accommodation space.

[0046] In this embodiment, the transmission gears 92, the intermediate gear 93, and the upper gear 94 on the upper part of the transmission shaft 90 are all accommodated and arranged in the accommodation space and sequentially form an external meshing transmission structure.

[0047] A shaft rod 70 is installed in the middle of the upper plate 71. The shaft rod 70 passes upward through the upper gear 94 and the upper turntable 6 in sequence; thus, the box body 7 can be supported and pulled by the rope 2 through the shaft rod 70.

[0048] A convex seat 721 extends upward from the middle of the lower plate 72. A rotating shaft 96 is rotatably fitted inside the convex seat 721. One end of the rotating shaft 96 is connected to the output end of the motor assembly 91, and the other end of the rotating shaft 96 is sleeved with a lower gear 95.

[0050] It further includes a support plate 3. A guide wheel 4 is rotatably installed on the support plate 3. The guide wheel 4 is directly above the top surface of the box body 7. The rope 2 between the rope winding and unwinding mechanism 1 and the hanging ring is wound around the guide wheel 4.

[0051] In this embodiment, the guide wheel 4 plays a role in turning and supporting the rope 2.

[0052] A touch switch 5 is installed on the support plate 3 below the guide wheel 4. A disc 50 is fixed on the rope 2 below the touch switch 5.

[0053] In this embodiment, when the rope 2 pulls the box body 7 upward, it can be limited by the contact between the disc 50 and the touch switch 5 to control the retractable rope mechanism 1 to stop working.

[0054] The structure of the retractable rope mechanism 1 is as follows: it includes spaced-apart supports 12, and a rope winding disc 13 around which the rope 2 is wound is rotatably installed between the supports 12, and the rope winding disc 13 is driven to rotate by a rope winding motor 11.

[0055] In this embodiment, through the operation of the rope winding motor 11, the rope winding disc 13 is driven to rotate forward or backward, so as to realize the winding or lowering of the rope 2.

[0056] In actual use, the support 12 can be fixed to the target pipeline via fasteners or the like to realize the fixation of the retractable rope mechanism 1 relative to the target pipeline, and the support plate 3 can be fixed to the target pipeline via fasteners or the like to realize the fixation of the guide wheel 4 relative to the target pipeline.

[0057] In this embodiment, according to the actual operation requirements and operation limitations, the supports 12 and the support plates 3 can be respectively assembled and fixed relative to the target pipeline, effectively ensuring the flexibility of actual use.

[0058] The usage mode of the present utility model is as follows:

[0059] As Figure 4 shown is a cleaning schematic diagram of a certain three-way pipeline. During operation, the retractable rope mechanism 1 is fixed to the side pipe orifice 101 of the pipeline 100 to be cleaned via the support 12, and the guide wheel 4 is fixed in the vertical pipeline of the pipeline 100 to be cleaned via the support plate 3. At this time, the cleaning components such as the box body 7 at the lower end of the rope 2 are located in the vertical pipeline of the pipeline 100 to be cleaned.

[0060] The motor assembly 91 in the rotation drive mechanism 9 operates, drives the upper gear 94 and the lower gear 95 to rotate synchronously and in opposite directions through the transmission mechanism, the upper turntable 6 and the lower turntable 8 rotate synchronously and in opposite directions, and the inner wall surface of the pipeline 100 to be cleaned is cleaned via the circumferential brush 10; at the same time, in combination with the operation of the rope winding motor 11 in the retractable rope mechanism 1, the rope 2 is wound or lowered, so that the box body 7 moves relative to the pipeline 100 to be cleaned in the vertical direction, thereby cleaning along the height direction of the pipeline 100 to be cleaned.

[0061] The present utility model realizes the automatic cleaning of the pipeline, is convenient to operate, effectively keeps the pipeline clean, improves the user experience, and maintains the surrounding environment.

[0062] In this specification, the various embodiments are described in a progressive manner. The key points of each embodiment are all the differences from other embodiments. The same and similar parts among the various embodiments can be referred to each other.
