[0028] The transfer mechanism is arranged between the cleaning mechanism 3 and the centrifugal drying mechanism 5. The transfer mechanism is used to transfer the bearings in the cleaning mechanism 3 to the centrifugal drying mechanism 5. The transfer mechanism includes a bidirectional conveyor 4. The bidirectional conveyor 4 is provided with a U-shaped guide frame on the surface. A second pushing module 41 is provided next to the bidirectional conveyor 4. The second pushing module 41 is used to push the bearings to the centrifugal drying mechanism 5.

[0029] The centrifugal drying mechanism 5 includes a housing 51, a material shifting assembly, a polygonal rotating body 52, and a motor.

[0030] The centrifugal drying mechanism 5 is connected to a bridge groove 7 on both sides.

[0032] The implementation principle of the fully automated cleaning and drying equipment for deep groove ball bearing production in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0033] The bearing is fed into the feeding conveyor belt 21 by the previous process and is pushed onto the bridge platform 23 by the first pushing module 22. The dividing plate 26 in the dividing module moves back and forth and respectively sends the bearing to the material transfer channels 31 on both sides. Thereafter, the X-direction moving component 32 in the material transfer drive module drives the material transfer piece 34 to move one bearing position to the left, and then the Y-direction moving component 33 pushes the material transfer piece 34 to clamp the bearing, and the X-direction moving component 32 is reset, and the cycle is repeated in sequence, which can drive the bearings to pass through the material transfer channel 31 one by one. In this process, the lifting cylinder 36 in the spray component drives the spray head 38 to press on the bearing, and uses the spray pressure to flush the upper surface and groove of the bearing with the cleaning liquid. At the same time, the pressure cleaning can also clean the lower surface of the bearing in a limited space. When the bearing passes through the material transfer channel 31, it will undergo a total of eight spray cleanings, with a long cleaning time and good cleaning effect.

[0034] After the cleaned bearings are turned by the bidirectional conveyor 4, they are pushed into the bridge groove 7 by the second pushing module 41. The first ball screw 54 in the material-dispensing assembly drives the material-dispensing rack 56 to dispense the bearings into the card slot 521. Generally, two bearings are dispensed at a time. After the card slots 521 on the side walls of the polygonal rotating body 52 are full of bearings, the motor drives the polygonal rotating body 52 to rotate at high speed. The cleaning medium on the surface of the bearing is thrown out and removed by the principle of centrifugation. The bearings are then sent to the unloading conveyor belt 6 through the material-dispensing assembly and pushed out of the unloading conveyor belt 6 by the third pushing module 61 to complete the unloading.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
