[0023] The technical solution protected by the present utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, a cleaning device for a motor end cover includes a cleaning mechanism 1 for cleaning and drying the motor end cover that has completed production and processing.

[0025] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the cleaning mechanism 1 includes a frame 11, which is provided with a receiving chamber 12. The receiving chamber 12 contains a cleaning liquid for cleaning the surface of the motor end cover. The height of the cleaning liquid in the receiving chamber 12 is higher than the height of the motor end cover to ensure that the motor end cover can be completely immersed in the cleaning liquid and that debris on the surface of the motor end cover is thoroughly cleaned. A lifting drive 13 is provided on the frame 11. The output end of the lifting drive 13 is connected to a support plate 14, which is used to support the product. The support plate 14 is placed in the receiving chamber 12. A gap exists between the support plate 14 and the inner wall of the receiving chamber 12. The lifting drive 13 drives the support plate 14 to be repeatedly raised and lowered in the receiving chamber 12. During the repeated raising and lowering of the motor end cover in the receiving chamber 12, the cleaning liquid repeatedly flushes the surface of the motor end cover, ensuring that debris on the surface of the motor end cover is thoroughly cleaned, effectively improving the cleanliness and cleaning efficiency.

[0026] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, an air knife 15 is disposed on the inner wall of the upper end of the accommodating chamber 12, and the air outlet of the air knife 15 is directed toward the side of the supporting plate 14 to purge the motor end cover on the supporting plate 14 and dry the liquid residue on the motor end cover. Specifically, the lifting drive 13 drives the supporting plate 14 and the product placed on the supporting plate 14 to descend until the product is completely immersed in the cleaning liquid, and then descends again after rising to a certain height. This is repeated several times until the cleaning liquid washes away the debris on the surface of the motor end cover. The lifting drive 13 then drives the supporting plate 14 to rise to the upper part of the accommodating chamber 12, and the air knife 15 purges the motor end cover on the supporting plate 14 to dry the residual water stains on the surface of the motor end cover, thereby completing the cleaning of the motor end cover.

[0027] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the lifting drive 13 includes a screw guide rail module 131 disposed outside the frame 11 and a connector disposed at the output end of the screw guide rail module 131. The connector connects the support plate 14 and the screw guide rail module 131, and the screw guide rail module 131 drives the support plate 14 to move longitudinally. The connector includes a first connecting plate 132 disposed at the output end of the screw guide rail module 131. A transverse plate 133 is disposed above the first connecting plate 132. The end of the transverse plate 133 extends horizontally above the accommodating cavity 12 and is connected to a second connecting plate 134 extending downward. The lower portion of the second connecting plate 134 is connected to the support plate 14. Preferably, two sets of transverse plates 133 and second connecting plates 134 are provided to improve the stability of the support plate 14 during the lifting process.

[0028] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the first connecting plate 132, the transverse plate 133, and the second connecting plate 134 form a "J"-shaped structure. A longitudinally extending escape groove 121 is provided on the upper portion of the frame 11 at a position corresponding to the transverse plate 133, providing clearance for the transverse plate 133 to move during the raising and lowering of the connector. Preferably, the support plate 14 is provided with a raised positioning block 141 for securing the motor end cover in place.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, a cleaning device for a motor end cover further includes a loading mechanism 2, which is used to carry the motor end cover to be cleaned and place it on the cleaning mechanism 1, and to move the motor end cover that has been cleaned away from the cleaning mechanism 1.

[0030] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, the feeding mechanism 2 includes a robotic arm 21, and a mounting plate 22 is configured at the end of the robotic arm 21. Two sets of clamps are configured at both ends of the mounting plate 22 along the length direction. One set of clamps is used to clamp the motor end cap to be cleaned, and the other set of clamps is used to clamp the motor end cap that has been cleaned on the cleaning mechanism. The robotic arm 21 uses a set of clamps to carry and clamp the motor end cap to be cleaned from the previous processing station and moves it to the top of the cleaning mechanism 1; the robotic arm 21 uses another set of clamps to pick up the motor end cap that has been cleaned and dried on the support plate 14. The robotic arm 21 changes the direction of the mounting plate 22 and places the motor end cap to be cleaned on the support plate 14. The robotic arm 21 then drives the motor end cap that has been cleaned to move to the subsequent processing station.

[0031] like Figure 1 and 4 As shown, the clamping member includes a reference clamping jaw 23 arranged on the mounting plate 22, and a movable clamping jaw 24 and a transverse cylinder 25 that drives the movable clamping jaw 24 toward and away from the reference clamping jaw 23 are provided on one side of the width direction of the mounting plate 22 corresponding to the reference clamping jaw 23. The transverse cylinder 25 drives the movable clamping jaw 24 to move to adjust the distance between the reference clamping jaw 23 and the movable clamping jaw 24. It can be adaptively adjusted according to the distance between the two adjacent positioning blocks 141 on the support plate 14 and the distance between the two adjacent loading jigs on the preceding and subsequent processing stations of the cleaning mechanism 1. It has high flexibility and a wide range of applications. Preferably, the transverse cylinder 25 is arranged on the side of the mounting plate 22 away from the movable clamping jaw 24, and the push rod end of the transverse cylinder 25 is connected to the movable clamping jaw 24 through the support plate 27. Preferably, a transverse sliding rail 26 extending along the width direction is disposed on the mounting plate 22 , and the support plate 27 is slidably disposed on the transverse sliding rail 26 via a slider to improve the movement stability of the movable clamping jaw 24 .

[0032] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the description and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
