[0025] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, an automatic scrubbing device for a spool includes a frame 1. A plurality of scrubbing mechanisms are arranged in parallel on the frame 1. The plurality of scrubbing mechanisms are mounted on the frame 1 in parallel. A protective cover 9 is provided outside the scrubbing mechanism. The protective cover 9 is slidably disposed on the frame 1 in the up and down direction. It further includes a lifting drive corresponding to the protective cover 9 one by one. The lifting drive is fixedly provided on the frame 1 and can drive the protective cover 9 to slide up and down respectively. The lifting drive includes a lifting motor and a lead screw assembly. The lifting motor is fixedly provided on the frame 1. The lead screw assembly includes a lead screw and a lead screw nut. The lifting motor can transmit the rotational motion to the lead screw. The lead screw nut is sleeved outside the lead screw and fixedly connected to the protective cover 9, so as to drive the protective cover 9 to slide up and down. In the working state, the protective cover 9 corresponding to the scrubbing mechanism that is scrubbing the spool descends to the bottom to cover the scrubbing structure and the spool, thus isolating the scrubbing mechanism and the spool spatially to avoid sewage splashing and polluting the environment; at the scrubbing mechanism where the spool scrubbing has been completed, the lifting drive drives the protective cover 9 to rise to the top to open the scrubbing mechanism, facilitating the staff to pick up and place the spool.
[0026] As Figure 2 shown, the scrubbing mechanism includes a control box 2, a water tank 3, a clamping unit, and a cleaning unit.
[0027] The water tank 3 is used for storing water and is connected with a water inlet 31 and a water outlet 32, and is used to provide water source for the cleaning unit;
[0028] As shown Figure 3 in the figure, the clamping unit includes a clamping assembly 4 and a clamping drive. The clamping assembly 4 is used to clamp the spool. Specifically, the clamping assembly 4 includes a stepped shaft rod 41 and a sleeve 42. The spool can be sleeved outside the stepped shaft rod 41 and is in clearance fit with the stepped shaft rod 41. The sleeve 42 can be fixedly sleeved outside the stepped shaft rod 41. Specifically, it further includes a setscrew. The setscrew can pass through the sleeve 42 and abut against the outer wall surface of the shaft rod to fix the sleeve 42 and the stepped shaft rod 41. During operation, when the sleeve 42 is fixedly sleeved outside the stepped shaft rod 41, the sleeve 42 can press the spool against the shoulder of the stepped shaft rod 41 to clamp and fix the spool. In this embodiment, the clamping drive includes a clamping motor, and the clamping motor can transmit the rotational motion to the stepped shaft rod 41.
[0029] The cleaning unit includes a wheel brush 5 and a wheel brush drive. The wheel brush 5 includes a disc-shaped scouring pad wheel brush. In other embodiments of the present utility model, a wheel brush with nylon bristles or wire strips can also be used.
[0030] Under the action of the clamping drive and the wheel brush drive, the wheel brush 5 can act on the bottom surface and side surface of the groove of the spool, as well as the outer surface of the spool in contact with the wheel brush to complete the scrubbing operation. Specifically, the clamping drive includes a clamping motor. The clamping motor is fixedly arranged on the frame 1, and the clamping motor can transmit the rotational motion to the spool;
[0031] The wheel brush drive can drive the wheel brush 5 to approach or move away from the spool and axially displace along the spool. Specifically, the wheel brush drive includes a horizontal drive member, a front and rear drive member and a sliding seat. The horizontal drive member includes a horizontal motor. The horizontal motor drives the sliding seat to horizontally slide through a lead screw pair to approach or move away from the spool. The front and rear drive member includes an axial motor. The axial motor is fixedly arranged on the sliding seat and drives the wheel brush 5 to axially slide back and forth along the spool through a lead screw pair.
[0032] As Figure 2 shown in the figure, the water outlet 32 is connected with a flat nozzle 7 through a hose. The setting of the hose can conveniently move up and down with the scrubbing mechanism. The flat nozzle 7 faces the contact area between the wheel brush 5 and the spool, so that the dirt can be washed away in time.
[0033] A funnel 8 is further arranged on the frame below the scrubbing mechanism. The funnel 8 is used to receive sewage and communicate with the water tank 3 downward through a filter. The filter is a prior art and will not be elaborated here, and is used to filter dirt and recycle water resources.
[0034] A liquid level gauge is further arranged in the water tank 3. The liquid level gauge is electrically connected with the control box 2 and is used to monitor the liquid level height in the water tank 3. When the liquid level in the water tank 3 is lower than the set range value, the liquid level gauge sends a signal to the control box, and the control box 2 controls an external water pump to pump clean water into the water tank 3.
[0035] The above has described the present utility model by way of example, but the present utility model is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and any modification or variation based on the present utility model falls within the scope of protection claimed by the present utility model.
