Figures 1 to 3As shown, the transmission assembly includes a cage support bearing 25 rotatably connected to the inside of the frame 11, a cage 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the cage support bearing 25, a spiral blade 5 is welded in the inner wall of the cage 4, a driven gear 12 is fixedly connected to the outside of the cage 4, a drive motor 6 is fixedly connected to the inside of the frame 11, a drive gear 7 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 6, the drive gear 7 and the driven gear 12 are meshed with each other, a cleaning auxiliary tank 23 and a cleaning main tank 24 are provided inside the frame 11, a circulating pump 22 is fixedly connected to the inside of the frame 11, the cleaning auxiliary tank 23 and the cleaning main tank 24 are located outside the cage 4, the cleaning auxiliary tank 23 and the cleaning main tank 24 are fixedly connected through a circulating pump 22 and a conduit. The inside of the frame 11 is fixedly connected There is a spray pipe 8, a spray drying tank 18 and a spray auxiliary tank 19 are opened inside the frame 11, a spray pump 20 is fixedly connected to the inside of the frame 11, the input end of the spray pump 20 is fixedly connected to the input end of the spray auxiliary tank 19, and the output end of the spray pump 20 is fixedly connected to the spray pipe 8. The spray pipe 8 is located inside the spray drying tank 18, and the spray drying tank 18 is located above the cage 4. A filter 21 is provided inside the frame 11, and two pipelines are provided inside the filter 21. The two pipelines are connected to the circulation pump 22 and the spray pump 20 respectively. Various parameters of the cleaning machine, such as cleaning time, spray intensity, drying temperature, etc., are set through the operation panel 2. The electric control box 14 receives instructions and controls the start-up sequence of each component, cleaning the auxiliary tank 23 and cleaning the main tank 24 is pre-added with an appropriate amount of water-based cleaning agent, and the circulation pump 22 is started to pump the cleaning liquid in the cleaning auxiliary tank 23 into the cleaning main tank 24 through the conduit, and at the same time, it flows back from the cleaning main tank 24 to the cleaning auxiliary tank 23 to form a closed-loop circulation to ensure that the cleaning liquid is evenly distributed and maintains a certain temperature. The hardware to be cleaned is poured into the loading hopper of the feeder 1, and the feeder 1 automatically feeds the hardware into the entrance of the cage 4, and the driving motor 6 is started. The driving gear 7 is engaged with the driven gear 12, driving the cage 4 to start rotating. The spiral blades 5 in the cage 4 push the hardware from the entrance to the outlet, and at the same time, the hardware is continuously rolled and collided in the cleaning liquid, fully contacted with the cleaning liquid, and the surface stains are removed. After the hardware passes through the cleaning section, it enters the spray drying tank 18. The spray pump 20 is started, and the clean water in the spray sub-tank 19 is evenly sprayed on the surface of the hardware through the spray pipe 8, further diluting and washing the cleaning agent residue on the hardware. The design of the cage conveyor and the spiral blade 5 makes the hardware fully roll and collide in the cleaning liquid, effectively removing surface stains and improving cleaning efficiency and quality. The whole process is automatically controlled, reducing manual intervention and labor intensity. The cleaning liquid and spray water are recycled, reducing water resources and cleaning agent consumption.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a hot air knife 9 is provided on the inner wall of the frame 11, and a medium-pressure fan 17 and an air heater 16 are provided inside the frame 11. The medium-pressure fan 17 and the air heater 16 are connected to the hot air knife 9, and the hot air knife 9 is located outside the cage 4. When it is necessary to dry the hardware, the air heater 16 is started through the operation panel 2, and the air heater 16 starts to work and heats the inhaled air to the set temperature. At the same time, the medium-pressure fan 17 is started, and the medium-pressure fan 17 generates pressure to transport the heated air to the hot air knife 9 through a pipe. The heated and pressurized air is ejected through the nozzle of the hot air knife 9 to form a hot air flow. The hot air flow directly acts on the outside of the cage 4 and the hardware passing through it for rapid drying. The medium-pressure fan 17 and the air heater 16 continue to work to keep the hot air knife 9 spraying Hot air with stable temperature is output until the moisture on the surface of the hardware is fully evaporated to achieve the drying effect. The hot air knife 9 directly dries the hardware, which improves the drying efficiency and shortens the production cycle. The hot air temperature and wind speed are adjustable and can be optimized according to different hardware and cleaning needs. The drying process is uniform and fast, avoiding rust or quality problems caused by residual moisture on the surface of the hardware, improving the overall cleanliness and dryness of the product, and facilitating subsequent processing and use. No large amount of external heat source or chemical desiccant is required during the drying process, reducing environmental pollution and waste generation. The addition of the hot air knife 9 makes the cleaning machine have multiple functions such as cleaning, spraying and drying in one, which improves the comprehensive performance and competitiveness of the equipment and meets the different needs of different industries and customers for hardware cleaning and drying.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, an ultrasonic generator 15 is provided on one side of the interior of the frame 11, and an ultrasonic vibration plate 13 is provided on one side of the ultrasonic generator 15. The ultrasonic vibration plate 13 is located above the cage 4. The ultrasonic generator 15 is started through the operation panel 2. The ultrasonic generator 15 converts the input electrical energy into a high-frequency electrical signal and transmits it to the ultrasonic vibration plate 13. After receiving the high-frequency electrical signal, the ultrasonic vibration plate 13 generates high-frequency vibration, thereby forming ultrasonic waves in the cleaning liquid. These ultrasonic waves propagate in the cleaning liquid, forming tiny bubbles that quickly burst, generating strong impact and shear forces. When the cage 4 drives the hardware in the cleaning process, the ultrasonic waves are generated. When rotating in the liquid, ultrasonic waves act on the surface of hardware and in the crevices. The impact force and shear force of ultrasonic waves can effectively remove dirt, grease and impurities on the surface of hardware. At the same time, ultrasonic waves can also promote the flow and penetration of cleaning liquid, thereby improving the cleaning effect. After ultrasonic cleaning, the hardware continues to be transported through the cage 4 to the spray drying tank 18 for spraying and drying. No harmful substances are produced during the cleaning process, which is friendly to both hardware and the environment. The addition of the ultrasonic generator 15 and the ultrasonic vibration plate 13 enables the cleaning machine to have ultrasonic cleaning function, thereby improving the comprehensive performance and competitiveness of the equipment.

[0023] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: first, the cleaning auxiliary tank 23 and the cleaning main tank 24 are filled with water-based cleaning agent, the spray auxiliary tank 19 is filled with clean water, the circulation pump 22 and the spray pump 20 are started, the cleaning liquid circulates back and forth between the cleaning auxiliary tank 23 and the cleaning main tank 24, and the clean water circulates back and forth between the spray drying tank 18 and the spray auxiliary tank 19 through the spray pipe 8; the medium-pressure fan 17 and the air heater 16 are started, and hot air is sprayed on the hot air knife 9; the ultrasonic generator 15 is started, and the ultrasonic vibration plate 13 starts to work; the drive motor 6 is started, and the drive gear 7 and the driven gear 12 are connected. The transmission of the machine causes the cage 4 to start directional rotation, and then the products to be cleaned are poured into the loading hopper of the feeder 1, and the products will be fed into the cage 4. Because the inner wall of the cage 4 is welded with spiral blades 5, as the cage rotates 4, the products will move from left to right, passing through the cleaning section, spraying section and drying section in turn. The grease and other attached pollutants on the products can be removed in the cleaning section, the cleaning agent attached to the products can be diluted in the spraying section, and the moisture on the products can be evaporated in the drying section. Finally, the products will be rotated out of the cage 4 and fall into the material box through the receiving hopper 10 to complete the entire cleaning process.

[0024] The present invention covers any substitution, modification, equivalent method and scheme made on the essence and scope of the present invention; in order to make the public have a thorough understanding of the present invention, specific details are described in detail in the above preferred embodiments of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can fully understand the present invention without the description of these details.
