Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water tank cleaning, in particular to a water tank with an automatic cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] In secondary water supply systems, stainless steel water tanks are often used to store water, providing regular water supply to high-rise residents when municipal water pressure is insufficient. Stainless steel water tanks require regular cleaning to ensure water quality. Typically, the interior of these tanks needs to be cleaned every six months to ensure the water meets national epidemic prevention standards and poses no health risks to users.

[0003] The existing utility model patent document, authorized with publication number CN205085105U, discloses a water tank cleaning system comprising multiple washers mounted on the water tank and a water quality detector. The water inlet of each washer is connected to the outlet of a water inlet pipe. The system also includes a PLC controller for controlling the electric device. The water spray pipes of the washers are located inside the water tank, and the washers are secured to the water tank via a mounting bracket. The washers include a water inlet, an axial reciprocating motion mechanism, an axial reciprocating rotational motion mechanism, and a nozzle with multiple water spray outlets.

[0004] During cleaning, water flows through the water inlet of the cleaning device, enters the nozzle, and is ejected outward through the nozzle's nozzle, forming a high-speed water flow that flushes the side walls and internal structure of the water tank. However, long-term accumulation of dirt has firmly adhered to the inner wall of the water tank. Water spraying alone cannot thoroughly clean the inner wall of the water tank, and the cleaning effect is not obvious. Utility Model Content

[0021] The embodiment of the utility model provides a water tank with an automatic cleaning device, which is added to the existing water spray cleaning system. Figure 1-3As shown, the cleaning system comprises a water tank 1, within which is located a cleaning mechanism comprising two annular tracks 2, cleaning rollers 3, and a drive assembly. Tracks 2 are arranged circumferentially along the inner wall of the water tank 1, symmetrically positioned at the front and rear sides of the water tank 1. Tracks 2 adhere closely to the inner wall, allowing the cleaning rollers 3 more space to clean the inner wall. A space is reserved between the tracks 2 and the water tank 1 for guide wheels 6 to enter. The drive assembly drives the cleaning rollers 3 to move along the tracks 2.

[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly includes a bracket 4, a drive wheel 5, a guide wheel 6, and a motor 7. The drive wheel 5 and the guide wheel 6 are pivotally connected to the bracket 4 and are slidably adapted to the upper and lower sides of the track 2, respectively. The motor 7 is disposed on the bracket 4 and connected to the drive wheel 5. The motor 7 is used to drive the drive wheel 5 to rotate, causing the cleaning roller 3 to travel along the length of the track 2 to clean the wall of the water tank 1. The cleaning roller 3 is disposed on the bracket 4.

[0023] In order to prevent the driving wheel 5 and the guide wheel 6 from escaping from the track 2, Figure 3 As shown, the upper and lower sides of the track 2 are provided with concave slideways 15 for embedding the driving wheel 5 and the guide wheel 6. The concave slideway 15 is semicircular and inwardly concave.

[0024] The driving assembly can be in a disassembly and assembly mode, that is, the driving wheel 5 and the cleaning roller 3 can be detachably assembled. Specifically, the driving wheel 5 is sleeved on the driving shaft of the motor 7, and the end of the driving shaft is limited by a transverse pin shaft. A rotating shaft is set on the bracket 4, and the end shaft of the cleaning roller 3 is sleeved on the rotating shaft and limited by the transverse pin shaft.

[0025] In order to enable the cleaning roller 3 to rotate with the rotation of the driving wheel 5, a gear 1 8 is coaxially provided on the driving wheel 5. The end of the cleaning roller 3 is rotatably connected to the bracket 4. A gear 2 9 is coaxially provided on the rotating shaft of the cleaning roller 3. Gear 1 8 meshes with gear 2 9. When the driving wheel 5 rotates, the cleaning roller 3 rotates in conjunction with the transmission of gears 1 8 and 2 9, so that the cleaning roller 3 rotates synchronously during the process of travel, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, a slide groove 10 is vertically provided on the bracket 4, and a slider 11 is adapted to slide vertically in the slide groove 10. The guide wheel 6 is pivotally connected to the slider 11, and a spring 12 is provided between the bottom of the slider 11 and the bottom of the slide groove 10. When installing the guide wheel 6 and the drive wheel 5, the guide wheel 6 can be slid upward. After both the drive wheel 5 and the guide wheel 6 are engaged in the concave slideway 15, the guide wheel 6 is released, and the guide wheel 6 is engaged in the concave slideway 15 under the action of the spring 12.

[0027] The back of the slider 11 is provided with a positioning hole 13, and the chute 10 is transversely threaded with a positioning bolt 14 corresponding to the positioning hole 13. When the guide wheel 6 is fully inserted into the concave slide 15, the positioning hole 13 and the positioning bolt 14 exactly correspond, and the positioning bolt 14 restricts the position of the guide wheel 6 and prevents it from leaving the track 2.

[0028] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
