Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of automated production of stamping parts, and in particular to a stamping part degreasing device for an automated production line. Background Art

[0002] In traditional industrial production, the degreasing process for stamping parts mainly relies on manual cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, and automated cleaning lines. Manual cleaning is the earliest method of degreasing, but with the improvement of industrialization, this method has gradually been eliminated due to its low efficiency, cumbersome operation, and high labor intensity. Although ultrasonic cleaning is relatively effective in cleaning and can penetrate deep into the interior of complex parts for cleaning, its equipment occupies a large area, consumes high energy, and has high initial investment and operating costs, making it unsuitable for large-scale continuous production environments. In addition, the ultrasonic cleaning process consumes a lot of water resources and requires the use of specialized cleaning fluids, further increasing production costs.

[0003] On the other hand, while traditional automated cleaning lines can improve production efficiency and reduce the burden of manual operation, they generally use spraying or immersion methods to clean oil stains on the surfaces of stamped parts. These methods require large amounts of water and chemical cleaning agents, and also rely on high-powered spray systems or lengthy immersion processes to complete the cleaning task. This not only leads to high equipment operating costs, but also requires companies to configure complex water purification and wastewater treatment equipment to meet environmental requirements due to the large amount of wastewater and oil discharged. Therefore, the use of traditional automated cleaning lines is often accompanied by high environmental protection and equipment maintenance costs, further limiting their application in large-scale production.

[0004] Existing cleaning methods, whether manual, ultrasonic, or traditional automated cleaning lines, all have limitations. Especially when faced with high-efficiency, continuous production, manual cleaning cannot meet production demands, ultrasonic cleaning is uncompetitive due to cost and energy consumption, and traditional automated cleaning lines face significant pressure to deal with contamination. Therefore, developing a more efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly stamping part degreasing device would not only improve production efficiency but also effectively reduce production costs and environmental pressures, becoming a pressing need for technological development. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present application aims to overcome at least one shortcoming of the prior art by providing a stamping part degreasing device for use in automated production lines.

[0007] In some embodiments, a capillary groove structure extending from top to bottom is provided on the plate surface of the oil baffle plate, which is used to guide the oil to the second oil collecting tank below through capillary action to ensure effective collection of the oil.

[0008] In some embodiments, the oil removal device further includes side oil baffles installed on both sides of the conveying assembly and cooperating with the tornado knife, and the lower ends of the side oil baffles are inclined to receive the oil plates.

[0009] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket in the drum degreasing assembly is an electric lifting mounting bracket driven to rise and fall by a motor.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0024] like Figure 1-3As shown, this embodiment discloses a stamping part degreasing device for an automated production line. The overall structure of the device includes a conveying assembly 1, at least one roller degreasing assembly 2 installed above the conveying assembly by a bracket, a tornado knife 3 installed above the conveying assembly, and a plurality of auxiliary assemblies that cooperate with the degreasing device. Specifically, the conveying assembly adopts a loop-shaped mesh conveyor belt 101 to drive the stamping parts to move in the degreasing device. The mesh conveyor belt is supported and tensioned by a plurality of wheel sets, at least one of which is driven by a motor to realize the circulating motion of the conveyor belt. A horizontal oil receiving plate 102 is installed under the conveyor belt, and the oil receiving plate is inclined toward the first oil collecting tank 103 arranged opposite to it, so that the lubricating oil generated during the degreasing process can be effectively collected into the first oil collecting tank 103, thereby realizing efficient recovery of the lubricating oil.

[0025] The roller degreasing assembly 2 in the degreasing device is installed above the conveyor belt via a height-adjustable mounting bracket 201. The mounting bracket adopts an electric lifting structure, which is driven by a motor to achieve height adjustment, so that it can be precisely positioned according to the shape and thickness of the stamping part to ensure maximum degreasing efficiency. The surface of the roller 202 is covered with a large number of bristles, and the direction of rotation of the roller is toward the matching arc-shaped oil baffle 203, so that the lubricating oil attached to the surface of the stamping part is brushed off and flows along the oil baffle. The oil baffle adopts an arc-shaped design and fits tightly against the roller, which can effectively guide the oil to flow to the second oil collecting tank 204 to prevent the oil from splashing to the outside of the device. In addition, a capillary groove structure extending from top to bottom is provided on the surface of the oil baffle 203, which quickly guides the oil brushed off the roller 202 to the second oil collecting tank 204 located below it through capillary action, thereby further improving the oil collection efficiency.

[0026] In practice, the materials used for each component of the drum degreasing assembly 2 are carefully selected to ensure durability and efficiency. The mounting bracket 201 is constructed of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, while the bristles of the drum 202 are made of wear-resistant nylon, providing excellent degreasing performance and extending the life of the device. The oil baffle 203 is made of aluminum alloy, which is lightweight and provides excellent oil conduction performance. The capillary grooves are precision-machined to ensure stable and effective capillary action. The overall design, through the optimal selection and coordination of materials, achieves high operational stability and reliability.

[0027] In this embodiment, the oil removal device is also provided with a tornado knife 3 and a side oil baffle plate 4 to further control the flow direction of the oil. The tornado knife 3 is located after the roller oil removal assembly 2 and is installed above the conveyor belt 101 to blow away the residual oil on the surface of the stamping parts through a strong airflow. The structural design of the tornado knife 3 enables it to generate a high-pressure airflow to quickly blow away the oil on the surface of the stamping parts, and guide the oil to the oil receiving plate 102 by cooperating with the side oil baffle plates 4 arranged on both sides of the conveying assembly 1. The lower end of the side oil baffle plate 4 is inclined toward the oil receiving plate 102, so that the oil flows into the first oil collecting tank 103 along the inclined oil receiving plate 102, avoiding the oil from splashing everywhere, thereby reducing pollution to the environment.

[0028] The working process of the entire device is as follows: First, the stamping parts enter the degreasing device through the conveying assembly 1. Part of the oil automatically slides onto the mesh conveyor belt 101 due to gravity. Due to the hollow structure of the mesh conveyor belt 101, the oil falls into the oil receiving plate 102. At the same time, the roller degreasing assembly 2 brushes off the main lubricating oil on the surface of the stamping parts and collects it into the second oil collecting tank 204, while cooperating with the arc-shaped oil baffle 203 to guide the oil. During the contact process with the stamping parts, the bristles of the roller 202 efficiently remove the surface oil through reasonable pressure and rotation speed to ensure the surface cleanliness of the stamping parts. The height-adjustable design of the roller 202 enables it to adapt to stamping parts of different sizes and shapes, thereby enhancing the versatility of the device. Subsequently, the stamping parts undergo a blowing process by the tornado knife 3 to remove the trace oil remaining on the surface. The blown oil is intercepted by the side oil baffle 4 and guided to the oil receiving plate 102. The high-pressure airflow design of the Tornado Blade 3 can effectively blow away tiny oil droplets on the surface of stamping parts, ensuring that the stamping parts have a good surface condition when entering the next process.

[0029] The coordination between the tornado blade 3 and the drum degreasing assembly 2 is crucial in the design of the device. The tornado blade 3 not only removes residual oil but also uses the impact of the airflow to blow away tiny particles adhering to the surface of the stamped parts, further improving the cleanliness of the stamped parts. The side oil deflector 4 plays a crucial guiding role in this process. Its design allows oil and particles to flow along a predetermined path toward the oil receiving plate 102 and the first oil sump 103, thereby preventing contamination of the surrounding environment.

[0030] In actual production processes, such as in the production of stamped parts in the automotive industry, this device can effectively remove lubricating oil remaining on the surface of the workpiece during the stamping process. Especially in situations where strict requirements are placed on oil contamination before surface treatment or painting, pre-treatment using this device can significantly improve the quality and stability of subsequent processes. In the automotive industry in particular, the surface quality of stamped parts is crucial to the final effect of the painting process. Excessive oil residue on the surface may cause contamination of other parts. Using this oil removal device can significantly reduce the probability of these defects.

[0031] Furthermore, compared to traditional manual cleaning methods, automated drum degreasing equipment significantly improves degreasing efficiency, reduces operator workload, and increases production automation and productivity. Traditional manual cleaning methods, due to their reliance on manual labor, suffer from high labor intensity, low efficiency, and poor consistency, particularly when faced with large-scale production demands. The automated degreasing device in this embodiment, through a series of optimized designs, achieves efficient, stable, and consistent degreasing, reducing manual intervention and improving the controllability of the entire production process.

[0032] For example, in the mass production of automotive parts, the automated degreasing device not only ensures consistent degreasing quality across every stamped part, but also adapts to the varying needs of the workpiece by precisely adjusting the height and rotational speed of the roller, thereby accommodating a variety of production scenarios. Thanks to its electric lift mechanism, the height adjustment of roller 202 can be automated via a pre-set program, eliminating the need for manual intervention and further reducing errors and inconsistencies caused by manual operation. This precise control capability makes the device crucial for the production of a wide variety of stamped parts.

[0033] Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure have been described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure without departing substantially from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, all such changes and modifications are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present disclosure as defined by the appended claims. The present disclosure is defined by the appended claims, and equivalents of these claims are intended to be included therein.
