Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a cleaning device, in particular to a cleaning device for chemical barrel connector. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of semiconductor, wafer foundry, liquid crystal flat panel display, solar cell and other electronic fields, various chemicals will be used. In order to avoid the chemical exposure to air resulting in chemical deterioration or pollution, the chemical barrel is directly connected with the connector in the process, and the chemical in the chemical barrel is extracted for operation.

[0003] When the chemical in the chemical barrel is used up, the operator separates the connector from the chemical, and replaces the new chemical barrel. According to the standard operation process, once the connector is separated from the chemical barrel, the connector must be cleaned to avoid pollution of the connector, which leads to pollution of the chemical in the next chemical barrel. However, the removal of the connector from the pipeline for cleaning each time will cause the delay of operation schedule, time-consuming and laborious. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0004] The utility model provides a connector cleaning device, which can be used to carry a connector and can be cleaned with a liquid at the same time, and then dried with a gas.

[0005] The connector cleaning device provided by the utility model has:

[0006] A body, which forms a cleaning space inside;

[0007] A baffle, which is arranged in the body and located above the cleaning space; the baffle has:

[0008] A through hole, which communicates with the cleaning space and is used to carry the connector;

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The present utility model provides a joint cleaning device, which can be used to carry a joint A, clean the joint A with a liquid, and dry the joint A with a gas. The joint cleaning device has a body 10, a baffle 20, a liquid pipeline 30, a gas pipeline 40, a liquid discharge hole 50, an ultrasonic wave transmitter 60, a detection pipeline 70, and a control device 80.

[0032] The body 10 has a cleaning space 11 formed inside. The baffle 20 is arranged in the body 10 and located above the cleaning space 11. The baffle 20 has a through hole 21. The through hole 21 is formed through the center of the baffle 20 and communicates with the cleaning space 11. The joint cleaning device carries the joint A through the through hole 21 of the baffle 20. The aperture of the upper side of the through hole 21 is larger than the aperture of the lower side of the through hole 21, and the aperture of the upper side of the through hole 21 is larger than the diameter of the joint A, and the aperture of the lower side of the through hole 21 is smaller than the diameter of the joint A. In other words, the through hole 21 is conical, and the wall surface of the through hole 21 is inclined. When the baffle 20 carries the joint A, the joint A is arranged in the through hole 21, and the part of the joint A that needs to be cleaned is located in the cleaning space 11.

[0033] The liquid pipeline 30 is arranged around the body 10 and can flow liquid. The liquid pipeline 30 has a liquid inlet 31 and a plurality of liquid outlets 32. The liquid outlets 32 are formed through the wall surface of the body 10 and communicate with the cleaning space 11. The liquid flows into the liquid pipeline 30 from the liquid inlet 31 and is injected into the cleaning space 11 from the liquid outlets 32. The gas pipeline 40 is arranged around the body 10 and can flow gas. The gas pipeline 40 has a gas inlet 41 and a plurality of gas outlets 42. The gas outlets 42 are formed through the wall surface of the body 10 and communicate with the cleaning space 11. The gas flows into the gas pipeline 40 from the gas inlet 41 and is injected into the cleaning space 11 from the gas outlets 42.

[0034] When the fitting A is placed in the fitting cleaning device, the liquid outlet 32 is directed to the portion of the fitting A that needs to be cleaned, and liquid can be sprayed from the liquid outlet 32 to the fitting A, thereby cleaning the fitting A. Similarly, when the fitting A is placed in the fitting cleaning device, the gas outlet 42 is directed to the portion of the fitting A that needs to be dried, and gas can be sprayed from the gas outlet 42 to the fitting A, thereby drying the fitting A. In this embodiment, the gas conduit 40 is above the liquid conduit 30, and the gas outlet 42 is horizontally through the wall of the body 10, while the liquid outlet 32 is obliquely through the wall of the body 10, but not limited thereto.

[0035] The drain hole 50 is formed at the bottom of the body 10, and can communicate or block the cleaning space 11 and the outside of the body 10. When the drain hole 50 communicates the cleaning space 11 and the outside of the body 10, the drain hole 50 can drain the liquid in the cleaning space 11. When the drain hole 50 blocks the cleaning space 11 and the outside of the body 10, the liquid can accumulate in the cleaning space 11, thereby the portion of the fitting A that needs to be cleaned can be soaked in the liquid. The ultrasonic transmitter 60 is disposed in the cleaning space 11. When the portion of the fitting A that needs to be cleaned is soaked in the liquid, the ultrasonic transmitter 60 can be activated, and clean the fitting A with ultrasonic waves.

[0036] The detection conduit 70 is disposed beside the body 10, and the detection conduit 70 is connected to the body 10, and communicates the cleaning space 11. In this embodiment, the detection conduit 70 communicates the cleaning space 11 at the bottom of the body 10, but not limited thereto. The control device 80 is disposed in the detection conduit 70, and can detect the liquid level of the liquid in the detection conduit 70. According to the communication principle, the liquid level of the liquid in the cleaning space 11 and the liquid level of the liquid in the detection conduit 70 are in the same plane. Therefore, the control device 80 can determine the amount of liquid in the cleaning space 11 by detecting the liquid level of the liquid in the detection conduit 70, thereby controlling the liquid flow into the liquid conduit 30. Specifically, when the liquid level reaches a predetermined position, the control device 80 can stop the liquid flow into the liquid conduit 30. In this embodiment, when the portion of the fitting A that needs to be cleaned is soaked in the liquid, it means that the liquid level reaches the predetermined position, but not limited thereto.

[0037] First, the joint A to be cleaned is placed in the through hole 21 of the baffle 20, the part of the joint A to be cleaned passes through the through hole 21 and is located in the cleaning space 11. Then the liquid flows into the liquid pipe 30 from the liquid inlet 31, and then sprays onto the joint A from the liquid outlet 32, thereby cleaning the joint A. As the liquid cleans the joint A, the liquid accumulated in the cleaning space 11 reaches a predetermined position, the control device 80 stops the liquid from flowing into the liquid pipe 30. Then the ultrasonic wave emitter 60 is started, and the joint A is cleaned by ultrasonic waves. Then the drain hole 50 is connected to the cleaning space 11 and the outside of the body 10 to drain the liquid in the cleaning space 11. Finally, the gas sprays onto the joint A from the gas outlet 42, thereby drying the joint A to complete the cleaning of the joint A.

[0038] The joint cleaning device can carry the joint A through the through hole 21 of the baffle 20, clean the joint A through the liquid pipe 30, and dry the joint A through the gas pipe 40. For example, when the user replaces the chemical barrel, the joint A connected to the original chemical barrel can be temporarily placed in the joint cleaning device, and the joint A is cleaned and dried at the same time through the joint cleaning device. Then the cleaned joint A is installed on the new chemical barrel to complete the standard operation process of replacing the chemical barrel. In this way, the joint cleaning device can reduce the labor and time consumed in disassembling and cleaning the joint A.

[0039] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in any form. Although the utility model has been disclosed as above, it is not intended to limit the utility model. Any skilled person in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above disclosed technical content without departing from the scope of the utility model technical solution. Any simple modification, equivalent change and modification of the above embodiment according to the technical essence of the utility model are still within the scope of the utility model technical solution.
