Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dry ice cleaning technology, and in particular to a dry ice cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Dry ice cleaning technology is widely used in various industries such as food processing, automobile manufacturing, petrochemicals, and power. A dry ice cleaning machine is an industrial cleaning device that uses dry ice particles propelled by high-pressure air to impact the surface of the object being cleaned at supersonic speeds. At the same time, the dry ice particles rapidly sublimate (changing from a solid to a gaseous state), expanding in volume nearly 800 times, thereby causing the dirt layer to crack and fall off, achieving a highly efficient cleaning effect.

[0003] Traditional dry ice cleaning machines are not convenient for cleaning both the top and bottom of the device being cleaned. This means that after cleaning, the device needs to be disassembled and flipped over for cleaning, which is very time-consuming, inconvenient for workers to operate quickly, and greatly affects the cleaning progress, making it unsuitable for large-scale cleaning.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a dry ice cleaning machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
