Abstract
Description

[0053] See Figures 1 to 3 , the present utility model provides a sandblasting water knife 200a, which includes an air inlet assembly 1, a water inlet assembly 2, a wind knife assembly 3, a water passing assembly 4, and a nozzle assembly 5.
[0054] The air inlet assembly 1 is provided with an air inlet chamber 1011 and an air inlet gap 1021 that communicates the air inlet chamber 1011 to the external space of the air inlet assembly 1. The water inlet assembly 2 is installed at the bottom of the air inlet assembly 1 and cooperates with the air inlet assembly 1 to enclose and form a water knife inner cavity. The wind knife assembly 3 is located in the water knife inner cavity, and is provided with an air inlet channel 301 that extends downward and communicates with the air inlet gap 1021, and a water inlet groove 303 is provided on the surface of the wind knife assembly 3 close to the water inlet assembly 2.
[0055] The upper part of the water passing assembly 4 is located between the wind knife assembly 3 and the water inlet assembly 2, and cooperates with the water inlet assembly 2 to enclose and form two water inlet channels 4011a that communicate with the water inlet groove 303; wherein, the two water inlet channels 4011a are symmetrically arranged with respect to the air inlet channel 301; the lower part of the water passing assembly 4 extends below the wind knife assembly 3 and is provided with a mixing channel 402 that communicates with the air inlet channel 301 and the water inlet channels 4011a;
[0056] The nozzle assembly 5 is located below the water inlet assembly 2 and is provided with a sandblasting gap 501 that communicates with the mixing channel 402; wherein, the length dimensions of the air inlet channel 301, the water inlet channels 4011a, and the mixing channel 402 are equal.
[0057] Optionally, the sandblasting water knife 200a further includes a water inlet joint 201 that communicates with the water inlet groove 303.
[0058] The sandblasting water knife 200a provided in this embodiment works as follows: Compressed air is sent into the air inlet chamber 1011, and sand water is sent into the water inlet groove 303. The compressed air is conveyed downward through the air inlet gap 1021 and the air inlet channel 301 to the mixing channel 402, and the sand water is conveyed to the mixing channel 402 through the water inlet channels 4011a; After the compressed air and the sand water are mixed in the mixing channel 402, they are sprayed out through the sandblasting gap 501 to wash the surface of the workpiece and complete the surface treatment operation on the workpiece.
[0059] In the above process:
[0060] On the one hand, the two water inlet channels 4011a inside the water knife are symmetrically distributed left and right with respect to the air inlet channel 301, and the length dimension of each water inlet channel 4011a is equal to the length dimension of the air inlet channel 301, ensuring uniform air and water intake in the entire mixing channel 402;
[0061] On the other hand, sand water flows down from the two - side water inlet troughs 303 through the water inlet channels 4011a, and compressed air blows down through a certain air inlet channel 301. The high - speed air flow pressurizes the sand water in the mixing channel 402, causing it to accelerate and eject the sand water. At the same time, the high - speed air flow also forms a low - pressure adsorption phenomenon on the sand water in the two water inlet channels 4011a above the mixing channel 402, enabling it to flow evenly and quickly into the mixing channel 402, further improving the uniformity of the ejected sand water.
[0062] Therefore, the sand - blasting water jet 200a provided by the present utility model can effectively improve the uniformity of the ejected sand water, and further improve the sand - blasting treatment effect.
[0063] In this embodiment, the air intake assembly 1 includes an air cavity cover 101 and an air intake partition 102. The air cavity cover 101 is provided with the air intake chamber 1011 with an opening facing downwards; the air intake partition 102 is located below the air cavity cover 101 and is provided with the air intake gap 1021 communicating with the air intake chamber 1011. A plurality of air intake connectors 103 communicating with the air intake chamber 1011 are connected to the air cavity cover 101.
[0064] Optionally, an upper gasket 6 is provided between the air cavity cover 101 and the air intake partition 102, and a lower gasket 7 is provided between the water inlet assembly 2 and the nozzle assembly 5.
[0065] In this embodiment, the air cavity cover 101 is locked to the top surface of the air intake partition 102 by bolts from top to bottom, and the water - passing assembly 4 is locked to the bottom surface of the air intake partition 102 by bolts from bottom to top.
[0066] In this embodiment, both the air knife assembly 3 and the water - passing assembly 4 are made of tungsten steel. Inside the sand - blasting water jet 200a, the flow rates of air and sand water are very fast, and the width dimensions of the air inlet channel 301 and the water inlet channel 4011a are relatively small, with severe wear. Using conventional metal materials has a very short service life. In this embodiment, both the air knife assembly 3 and the water - passing assembly 4 are made of tungsten steel to extend the service life.
[0067] Optionally, a T - shaped groove 302 is further provided on the surface of the air knife assembly 3 close to the water inlet assembly 2, and an internal insert 8 for tightly connecting with the water inlet assembly 2 is inserted into the T - shaped groove 302. The tapping of tungsten steel parts is difficult. Therefore, in this embodiment, an internal insert 8 that is easy to tap is embedded inside the air knife assembly 3 to facilitate the tight connection between the air knife assembly 3 and the water inlet assembly 2.
[0068] Further, a plurality of threaded holes are provided in the internal insert 8, and bolt holes 202 are provided in the water inlet assembly 2 corresponding to each of the threaded holes. After a bolt is horizontally passed through the bolt hole 202 and then threadedly connected to the corresponding threaded hole, the air knife assembly 3 and the water inlet assembly 2 can be locked.
[0069] In this embodiment, the water passing assembly 4 includes two oppositely arranged water passing blocks 401. The upper part of the water passing block 401 is an inclined plate 4011 matching the air knife assembly 3, and the lower part is a vertical plate 4012; the lower part of the air knife assembly 3 is inserted between the two inclined plates 4011, and the air knife assembly 3 and each inclined plate 4011 cooperate to form a water inlet channel 4011a.
[0070] Optionally, the width dimension of the air inlet channel 301 is 1.1 mm to 1.3 mm, the width dimension of the water inlet channel 4011a is 0.4 mm to 0.6 mm, the width dimension of the mixing channel 402 is 1.8 mm to 2.0 mm; the width dimension of the sandblasting gap 501 is 1.3 mm to 1.5 mm.
[0071] After a large amount of research and experiments, it is found that when the sandblasting water knife 200a with the above-mentioned size combination is used for sandblasting operations, the sprayed sand water curtain is most evenly distributed, and the appearance uniformity of the workpiece after sandblasting is very excellent.
[0072] Optionally, the nozzle assembly 5 includes a nozzle outer frame 502 and two oppositely arranged boron carbide cutter bodies 503. The nozzle outer frame 502 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the water passing assembly 4; the two boron carbide cutter bodies 503 are located inside the nozzle outer frame 502 and enclose to form the sandblasting gap 501.
[0073] It should be noted that the sandblasting gap 501 is the position with the largest wear. The sand water is pressurized by compressed air, and the flow rate is greater, and the friction between the sand grains and the inner wall of the nozzle is the most serious. In this embodiment, the sandblasting gap 501 is formed by enclosing with boron carbide cutter bodies 503 with a relatively high hardness, which can be compatible with sandblasting of sand grains with different hardnesses. At present, it can withstand the sandblasting of silicon carbide sand grains, with a service life of more than 1000 hours, and can be quickly repaired and reused.
[0074] In summary, the sandblasting water knife 200a provided in this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:
[0075] ①Improve the sandblasting uniformity: By designing two symmetric water inlet channels 4011a and a mixing channel 402 of the same length as the air inlet channel 301, the uniform mixing of compressed air and sand water is ensured, thereby improving the sandblasting uniformity.
[0076] ②Enhance the sandblasting effect: The high-speed air flow pressurizes the sand and water, accelerating its ejection. At the same time, a low-pressure adsorption phenomenon is formed, making the sand and water flow more evenly and quickly towards the mixing channel 402, further enhancing the sandblasting effect.
[0077] ③Prolong the service life: Tungsten steel parts are used as the air knife assembly 3 and the water passing assembly 4, improving wear resistance and prolonging the service life of the sandblasting water knife 200a.
[0078] ④Facilitate maintenance and replacement: By setting the T-shaped groove 302 and the internal insert 8, the connection method between the air knife assembly 3 and the water inlet assembly 2 is simplified, facilitating maintenance and replacement.
[0079] ⑤Precise dimension design: By precisely designing the width dimensions of the air inlet channel 301, the water inlet channel 4011a, the mixing channel 402, and the sandblasting gap 501, it is ensured that the ejected sand and water curtain is evenly distributed, improving the uniformity of the workpiece appearance.
[0080] ⑥High-wear-resistant nozzle design: The boron carbide tool body 503 is used to form the sandblasting gap 501, improving the wear resistance of the nozzle, being compatible with sand grains of different hardnesses, prolonging the service life of the nozzle, and facilitating secondary repair and reuse.
[0081] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of the specification of this application, the patent protection scope of this application cannot be limited thereby. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process substitution or modification generated by using the content recorded in the text and drawings of the specification of this application based on the essential concept of this application, as well as directly or indirectly implementing the technical solutions of the above embodiments in other related technical fields, etc., are all included in the patent protection scope of this application.
