[0027] Next, reference is made to Figure 1 - Figure 2 Describe the cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present utility model

[0028] According to the cleaning device 100 for a coater of the present utility model, the coater is provided with a lip 11 for coating. The cleaning device 100 includes: a vibration generator 12 and a vibration plate. The vibration plate is connected to the vibration generator 12. A cleaning surface 15 spaced apart from the lip 11 is formed on the vibration plate. A plurality of detergent outlets 103 are formed on the vibration plate at the cleaning surface 15. The vibration plate vibrates with the vibration generator 12 and introduces detergent into the gap between the cleaning surface 15 and the lip 11 through the detergent outlets 103.

[0029] In some specific embodiments, the cleaning device 100 is composed of a vibration generator 12 and a vibration plate. The vibration generator 12 is mechanically connected to the vibration plate. A cleaning surface 15 facing the lip 11 is formed on the vibration plate. The cleaning surface 15 is spaced from the lip 11, and a plurality of detergent outlets 103 are formed on the cleaning surface 15. When the cleaning device 100 starts to work, the vibration generator 12 generates ultrasonic radiation, radiates the ultrasonic radiation to the detergent through the vibration plate, and then sprays the detergent containing ultrasonic radiation towards the lip 11 through the detergent outlets 103. The microbubbles in the detergent can continuously vibrate under the action of the sound wave. When the sound pressure or sound intensity decreases to a certain extent under the action of pressure, the microbubbles will rapidly expand and then suddenly close. A shock wave will be generated at the moment when the bubbles close, generating a certain degree of pressure around the bubbles. The huge pressure generated by this ultrasonic cavitation can break down the insoluble or hardly soluble dirt on the lip 11 and disperse them in the detergent, thereby effectively removing the stubborn stains and crystals on the lip 11 of the coater, improving the cleaning effect and efficiency of the lip 11 of the coater. At the same time, this process does not require manual intervention and does not require the coater to stop working, improving the production efficiency of the product.

[0030] It can be understood that, in some embodiments, the vibration generator 12 can be an exciter, which is used to generate vibration and drive the detergent to vibrate and impact the lip 11, thereby removing the insoluble or hardly soluble dirt on the lip 11.

[0031] According to the cleaning device 100 of the present utility model, the vibration generator 12 is mechanically connected to the vibration plate. A cleaning surface 15 facing the lip 11 is formed on the vibration plate. The cleaning surface 15 is spaced from the lip 11, and a plurality of detergent outlets 103 are formed on the cleaning surface 15. The vibration generator generates ultrasonic radiation, radiates the ultrasonic radiation to the detergent through the vibration plate, and the microbubbles in the detergent will rapidly expand and then suddenly close. A shock wave will be generated at the moment when the bubbles close, thereby effectively removing the stubborn stains and crystals on the lip 11 of the coater, improving the cleaning effect and efficiency of the lip 11 of the coater.

[0032] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the vibrating plate is formed with a receiving groove 102. The shape and size of the receiving groove 102 can be designed according to the shape and size of the lip 11 of the coater. The lip 11 is received in the receiving groove 102. At least a part of the inner wall of the receiving groove 102 is configured as a cleaning surface 15. The inner wall of the receiving groove 102 can directly spray the detergent onto the lip 11 to achieve the cleaning of the lip 11. The detergent after cleaning the lip 11 can converge in the receiving groove 102. On the one hand, it helps to collect and recycle the used detergent, reducing resource waste. On the other hand, it can reduce the pollution of the detergent to the surrounding environment.

[0033] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the vibrating plate includes: a first plate 13 and a second plate 14. The end of the first plate 13 and the end of the second plate 14 are connected and connected to the vibration generator 12. The other end of the first plate 13 and the other end of the second plate 14 are inclined away from the vibration generator 12 in a direction away from each other. A receiving groove 102 is formed between the first plate 13 and the second plate 14. The surfaces of the first plate 13 and the second plate 14 facing away from the vibration generator 12 are formed with a cleaning surface 15.

[0034] In some specific embodiments, the vibrating plate is composed of a first plate 13 and a second plate 14. One end of the first plate 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the second plate 14, and these two ends are connected to the vibration generator 12, ensuring that the first plate 13 and the second plate 14 can synchronously receive the ultrasonic waves generated by the vibration generator 12. The other end of the first plate 13 and the other end of the second plate 14 are inclined in a direction away from each other. The inclined design makes an open space, namely the receiving groove 102, formed between the first plate 13 and the second plate 14, facilitating the accommodation of the lip 11 of the coater and the detergent. The surfaces of the first plate 13 and the second plate 14 facing away from the vibration generator 12 constitute the cleaning surface 15. The cleaning surface 15 is inclined to match the shape of the lip 11, so that the detergent can be sprayed onto the lip 11 over a larger area, improving the cleaning efficiency and effect of the lip 11. According to some embodiments of the present utility model, detergent channels 101 penetrating in the thickness direction are respectively formed on the first plate 13 and the second plate 14. The detergent flows in the detergent channels 101, realizing the direct spraying of the detergent onto the lip 11. The detergent channels 101 are arranged in the first plate 13 and the second plate 14. The first plate 13 and the second plate 14 can directly transmit the ultrasonic waves generated by the vibration generator 12 to the washing liquid in the detergent channels 101, simplifying the ultrasonic wave conduction path and improving the cleaning efficiency and effect of the cleaning device 100.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the cleaning device 100 further includes: a liquid supply device, which is respectively communicated with the inlet of the detergent channel 101 and is used for conveying the detergent to the cleaning surface 15.

[0036] In some specific embodiments, a liquid supply device is further provided inside the cleaning device 100. The liquid supply device can control the flow rate of the detergent to ensure that the detergent flows according to a predetermined demand and a specified path. The liquid supply device includes a liquid storage tank and a pump. The liquid storage tank is used to store the detergent. The pump is disposed inside the storage tank and is connected to the inlet of the washing channel through a delivery pipe. The pump can extract the detergent from the liquid storage tank and transport it into the detergent channel 101, thereby realizing the delivery of the detergent from the detergent channel 101 to the cleaning surface 15, reducing the workload of on-site operators, and improving the cleaning efficiency and convenience of the cleaning device 100.

[0037] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the detergent channels 101 are configured as a plurality of channels that are perpendicular to the cleaning surface 15 and spaced apart. The plurality of detergent channels 101 arranged perpendicular to the cleaning surface 15 can ensure that the detergent is evenly sprayed onto the lip 11, avoiding excessive or insufficient detergent in some areas of the lip 11, and improving the consistency of the cleaning effect on the lip 11 of the coater. By providing a plurality of independent detergent channels 101, the flow rate and distribution of the detergent can be more precisely controlled. An appropriate amount of detergent can be sprayed onto each part of the lip 11, avoiding the cost increase caused by excessive use of the detergent. At the same time, according to the actual pollution degree of the lip 11, the flow rate of the detergent in each detergent channel 101 can be adjusted to adapt to different cleaning requirements. For example, the amount of detergent can be increased in areas with heavier pollution. The plurality of spaced-apart detergent channels 101 can reduce the risk of affecting the overall cleaning effect after a single detergent channel 101 is blocked. Even if a certain detergent channel 101 has a problem, the other detergent channels 101 can still continue to work, improving the stability and reliability of the cleaning device 100 during operation.

[0038] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cleaning device 100 further includes: a driving device, which is connected to the vibration generator 12 and is adapted to drive the vibration generator 12 to move in the extending direction of the lip 11.

[0039] In some specific embodiments, an output end that can move along the length direction of the coater blade head is provided on the driving device. The output end of the driving device is connected to the vibration generator 12. The output end can drive the vibration generator 12 and its attached cleaning member to reciprocate along the length direction of the lip 11, thereby ensuring that all areas of the lip 11 are effectively cleaned, improving the cleaning effect of the lip 11. At the same time, by moving the cleaning device 100 in the extending direction of the lip 11, it can be ensured that each part of the lip 11 receives the same intensity of ultrasonic cleaning action, enhancing the consistency of the cleaning effect on the lip 11. At this time, the length of the vibration plate 13 can be set shorter, and both ends of the receiving groove 102 in the length direction of the lip are provided in a through manner.

[0040] In addition, the operating parameters of the driving device, such as the moving speed, path, etc., can be adjusted according to actual requirements to adapt to different types and specifications of coating machines.

[0041] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the vibration generator 12 is configured as an ultrasonic generator. When the ultrasonic generator starts to work, it vibrates at a high speed and radiates ultrasonic waves into the detergent through the vibration plate. The microbubbles in the detergent can continuously vibrate under the action of the sound waves. When the sound pressure or sound intensity decreases to a certain extent under the action of pressure, the microbubbles will rapidly expand and then suddenly close. At the moment when the bubbles close, a shock wave will be generated, causing a certain degree of pressure around the bubbles. The huge pressure generated by this ultrasonic cavitation can break the insoluble or hardly soluble dirt on the lip 11 and cause them to disperse in the detergent, so as to effectively loosen and remove the stubborn stains and crystals on the lip 11 of the coating machine. The cavitation effect of the ultrasonic waves is evenly distributed throughout the receiving tank 102, which means that the cleaned parts of the lip 11 can all receive the same cleaning intensity, thus ensuring the consistency of the cleaning effect of the lip 11.

[0042] In addition, since ultrasonic cleaning is non-contact, it will not cause wear to the surface of the object to be cleaned, improving the service life of the coating machine.

[0043] The coating machine according to the present invention will be briefly described below.

[0044] The coating machine according to the present invention is provided with the cleaning device 100 described in any one of the above embodiments. Since the coating machine according to the present invention is provided with the cleaning device 100 described in any one of the above embodiments, the coating machine further includes a coating machine body. A protruding lip 11 is formed on the coating machine body, and a coating port is formed at the end in the protruding direction of the lip 11. A crystallization surface 111 is formed on at least one side of the lip 11 in the width direction of the coating port; the cleaning surface 15 of the cleaning device 100 faces the crystallization surface 111. Therefore, the production efficiency of the coating machine according to the present application is higher, and the quality of the products produced by the coating machine is better.

[0045] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, at least a part of the crystal plane 111 is arranged parallel to the cleaning surface 15, which helps to accurately align the crystal plane 111 and the cleaning surface 15, enabling the detergent to be accurately sprayed onto the area to be cleaned, ensuring that the detergent sprayed on the cleaning surface 15 can directly act on the crystal plane 111, avoiding the phenomenon of incomplete cleaning or waste of detergent caused by improper angles. On the other hand, the parallel arrangement of the crystal plane 111 and the cleaning surface 15 means that the area where the detergent is sprayed onto the crystal plane 111 is maximized, improving the cleaning efficiency of the lip 11.
