Inside the bearing seat 14, a screw rod 15 is rotatably connected. At one end of the screw rod 15, a forward and reverse motor 16 is fixedly connected. Outside the screw rod 15, a rotating member 17 is threadedly connected. Outside the rotating member 17, a first bracket 18 and a second bracket 19 are respectively rotatably connected. Inside the second bracket 19, a cleaning brush 20 is fixedly connected. By driving the forward and reverse motor 16 provided at the top of the frame 1, the rotating member 17 drives the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 to perform reciprocating movement under the screw rotation of the screw rod 15. However, the provided first bracket 18 and second bracket 19 are respectively rotatably connected to the rotating member 17, so that they can better fit the surface of the heat exchanger plate 7 by their own gravity. Driven by the forward and reverse motor 16, the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 can drive the cleaning brush 20 to clean the dust on the surface of the heat exchanger plate 7. And by using an external air pump to blow air into the shunt hose 21, the nozzles 22 provided inside the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 blow air on the surface of the heat exchanger plate 7. Thus, while wiping and blowing air, the cleaning effect of the molten salt heat exchanger can be improved.
[0026] In the present utility model, preferably, feet 2 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame 1.
[0027] In the present utility model, preferably, a first nut 6 is threadedly connected to one end of the support rod 4 outside the limiting frame 5.
[0028] In the present utility model, preferably, the heat exchanger plate 7 is located between the two support rods 4.

[0033] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: During use, the positive and negative motor 16 drives the rotation of the screw 15 in the bearing block 14, driving the rotating member 17 connected by threads, so that the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 achieve reciprocating movement. The rotation connection of these two brackets with the rotating member 17 enables them to closely adhere to the surface of the heat exchanger plate 7 by their own gravity. At the same time, the cleaning brush 20 on the inner side of the bracket wipes and cleans the surface of the plate. During the cleaning process, an external air pump jets air into the shunt hose 21, and the spray nozzles 22 provided in the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 blow air on the surface of the heat exchanger plate 7, achieving wiping and blowing simultaneously to improve the cleaning effect.
