Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to cleaning equipment for rubber hoses used in the automotive industry, specifically a rubber hose cleaning device, belonging to the field of automotive rubber product processing technology. Background Technology

[0002] After automotive rubber hoses are manufactured, they require a cleaning process, which is accomplished using appropriate cleaning equipment. Existing cleaning equipment uses a drum design, placing the hoses to be cleaned directly inside the drum and using a "washing machine" cleaning principle to perform the cleaning work.

[0003] However, depending on the specific production model of the hoses, there are many types of hoses produced. The existing cleaning method is to put the above products into their respective mesh bags according to different categories, and then put all the mesh bags into the washing equipment drum for mixed cleaning. The problem with the above multi-variety mixed cleaning method is that after the products are cleaned, each mesh bag needs to be taken out of the equipment and placed on the sorting board for manual sorting, and then put into a basket for the next process. The disadvantages are that the labor intensity of workers is high, the sorting and basketing process wastes time, the work efficiency is low, and the product quality risk is increased. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the technical drawbacks of the above-mentioned automotive rubber hose cleaning operations, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rubber hose cleaning device. This cleaning device optimizes and improves the original cleaning structure by using a unitized approach to place and clean the hoses in a fixed manner inside the drum. This improves the problem of manual sorting after cleaning caused by traditional multi-variety mixed cleaning, saves the time of removing products from the equipment, and allows them to directly enter the next process without manual sorting. This reduces labor intensity, increases work efficiency, and reduces product quality risks.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a rubber hose cleaning device, comprising: a drum, the inside of which is a hollow structure, and at least two partitioned integrated cleaning tanks of the same size and specifications are arranged in the cavity of the drum along the length of the drum, with a partition between each cleaning tank; a loading basket matching the size and specifications of the cleaning tank is placed in each cleaning tank; several rubber hoses of the same specifications are placed in each loading basket; each cleaning tank is also equipped with a safety cover and a locking mechanism; the partitioned form of the cleaning tanks and the corresponding loading baskets constitute a unitized cleaning method for the rubber hoses;

[0006] Furthermore, the rubber tubing in each loading basket is adapted to the loading basket. Before cleaning, the rubber tubing is neatly stacked in the loading basket, with the ends of the rubber tubing close to the inner side wall of the loading basket. Then the loading basket is placed in the corresponding washing tank.

[0007] Furthermore, each loading basket contains hoses to form a hose unit; and a cleaning device drum is used to clean multiple hose units. Typically, the drum in this solution holds 2-4 hose units.

[0008] Furthermore, the roller is a notched cylindrical body with a hollow structure on the outer circumference. The outer circumference has a square grid-like hollow design, and the two end faces are open. The area between each two adjacent grids of the cylinder is a connecting beam. A cleaning tank is welded into the cavity below the notch of the cylinder, so that the cleaning tank is welded to the corresponding connecting beam on the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, the notch on the roller is an opening that extends axially along the outer circumference of the roller; a cylinder cover is matched at the notch position of the cylinder body, and the cylinder cover and the cylinder body itself below it constitute the entire cylindrical cylinder body; the cylinder cover and the cylinder body itself are fixed in the equipment, and they are closed together and rotate synchronously during operation.

[0010] Furthermore, the washing tank is an open-top cuboid, with its opening corresponding to the notch in the cylinder; the four corners of the washing tank's cross-section form four welding points at their contact points with the cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the washing tank and the two front and rear surfaces are evenly provided with a number of horizontally and vertically arranged flow holes for the flow of cleaning liquid.

[0012] Furthermore, the structure of the loading basket is an open cuboid with an opening at the top and several flow holes on the bottom and surrounding surfaces; the size of the loading basket is designed to be able to be placed in the washing tank.

[0013] Furthermore, the loading basket is made of plastic; the washing tank is made of stainless steel or other metal.

[0014] Furthermore, a safety cover is rotatably hinged to one edge of the opening above each washing tank along its length. The safety cover has one hinged end in the washing tank as the hinge point and the other end as the free end. The safety cover rotates around the hinge point as the center of rotation so that it can close the opening of the washing tank, with the free end of the safety cover corresponding to the other edge of the opening along its length and fixed by a locking mechanism, thereby preventing product leakage.

[0015] Furthermore, the locking mechanism comprises two structural parts corresponding to the free end of the safety cover and the other edge of the opening above the washing tank along the length direction. The two structural parts cooperate to lock the safety cover. A first connecting ring is fixed to each side of the free end of the safety cover. A second connecting ring, corresponding to the position of the first connecting ring, is provided on the other edge of the opening above the washing tank along the length direction. The first and second connecting rings are connected together by a hand-held pin, thus forming a lock. When the safety cover needs to be opened, the hand-held pin is pulled out from the first and second connecting rings to open the locking mechanism.

[0016] The purpose of the safety cover and locking mechanism of the washing tank is to prevent product leakage, improve work efficiency, reduce manual labor intensity, prevent product contamination during the washing process, and eliminate potential quality risks.

[0017] The specific operating procedure for the rubber hose cleaning device with the above structure is as follows:

[0018] (1) Prepare several hose units for use.

[0019] The hoses are placed in different loading baskets according to their classification, and the hoses in each loading basket are stacked neatly, forming different hose units within each loading basket.

[0020] (2) Different hose units are placed into the corresponding cleaning tanks.

[0021] Place each of the above-mentioned material baskets containing the rubber hoses into the corresponding washing tank in sequence;

[0022] (3) Secure the hose using the safety cover and locking mechanism of the washing tank.

[0023] After placing the above-mentioned material baskets into the washing tank, rotate the safety cover hinged to the washing tank so that the safety cover covers the opening of the washing tank, and lock the safety cover on the opening of the washing tank through the locking mechanism to prevent the rubber tube from flowing out during the rotation of the drum.

[0024] After fixing each hose unit, start the device to rotate the roller to clean the hose; after cleaning, remove the entire loading basket from the cleaning tank and proceed directly to the next process without sorting or loading.

[0025] The cleaning principle described above is based on the technical principles of existing washing machines.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model rubber hose cleaning device are:

[0027] This cleaning device optimizes and improves the original cleaning structure by using a unitized hose system for fixed placement and cleaning within the drum. This unitized hose system essentially separates and limits the same type of products into individual baskets, improving upon the manual sorting issues that arise from traditional multi-variety mixed cleaning. It saves time in removing products from the equipment, eliminating the need for manual sorting and allowing them to proceed directly to the next process. This reduces labor intensity, increases work efficiency, and lowers product quality risks. Attached Figure Description

[0037] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below. Example

[0038] As shown in the figure, a rubber hose cleaning device includes: a drum 1, the inside of which is a hollow structure. At least two identical, partitioned, integrated cleaning tanks 2 are arranged along the length of the drum 1 within the cavity, with a partition 3 between each cleaning tank 2; each cleaning tank 2 contains a loading basket 4 matching its size; each loading basket 4 contains several rubber hoses of the same specifications; each cleaning tank 5 is also equipped with a safety cover 5 and a locking mechanism; the partitioned form of the cleaning tanks 2, along with the corresponding loading baskets 4, constitutes a unitized cleaning method for the rubber hoses.

[0039] The rubber tubing in each loading basket 4 is compatible with the loading basket 4. Before cleaning, the rubber tubing is neatly stacked in the loading basket 4, with the ends of the rubber tubing close to the inner wall of the loading basket 4. Then the loading basket 4 is placed in the corresponding washing tank 5. It should be noted that the ends of the rubber tubing are close to but not in complete contact with the inner wall of the loading basket 4.

[0040] This solution is designed for special work items. A loading basket contains four hoses to form a hose unit; a cleaning drum is used to clean multiple hose units. In this implementation, the drum four in this solution holds two hose units.

[0041] The roller 4 is a notched cylindrical body with a hollow structure on the outer circumference. The outer circumference is a square grid-like hollow design, and the two end faces are open designs. The area between each two adjacent grids of the cylinder is a connecting beam 6. A washing tank 2 is welded into the cavity below the notch of the cylinder, so that the washing tank 2 is welded to the corresponding connecting beam 6 on the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0042] The notch on the roller 1 is an opening that extends axially along the outer circumference of the roller 1; the notch of the cylinder is matched with a cylinder cover 7, and the cylinder cover 7 and the cylinder itself below it constitute the entire cylindrical cylinder; the cylinder cover 7 and the cylinder itself are fixed in the equipment, and they are closed together and rotate synchronously during operation.

[0043] The washing tank 2 is an open-top cuboid, with its opening corresponding to the notch in the cylinder; the four corners of the washing tank 2's cross-section form four welding points at their contact points with the cylinder.

[0044] The bottom and the two front and rear surfaces of the washing tank 2 are evenly provided with a number of horizontal and vertical flow holes 8 for the flow of cleaning liquid.

[0045] The structure of the loading basket 4 is an open cuboid with an opening at the top and several flow holes 8 on the bottom and surrounding surfaces; the size of the loading basket 4 is designed to be able to be placed in the washing tank 2.

[0046] The loading basket 4 is made of plastic; the washing tank 5 is made of stainless steel or other metal.

[0047] A safety cover 5 is rotatably hinged to one edge 2.1 of the opening above each washing tank along its length. The safety cover 5 has one end hinged to the washing tank 2 as the hinge point and the other end as the free end. The safety cover 5 rotates around the hinge point as the center of rotation so that it can close the opening of the washing tank 2, and the free end of the safety cover 5 corresponds to the other edge 2.2 of the opening above the washing tank along its length and is fixed by a locking mechanism to prevent product leakage.

[0048] Furthermore, the locking mechanism comprises two parts corresponding to the other edge 2.1 of the opening above the safety cover 5 and the other side of the opening along the length direction. The two parts are locked together. The safety cover 2 has a first connecting ring 9 fixed on each side of its free end. The other edge 2.2 of the opening above the washing tank, corresponding to the first connecting ring 9, is provided with a second connecting ring 10 corresponding to the position of the first connecting ring 9. The first connecting ring 9 and the second connecting ring 10 are connected together by a hand-held pin 11, thus forming a lock. When the safety cover 5 needs to be opened, the hand-held pin 11 is pulled out from the first connecting ring 9 and the second connecting ring 10, thereby opening the locking mechanism.

[0049] As another embodiment of this solution, the locking mechanism can also be locked by means of a snap-fit ​​between the safety cover 5 and the washing tank 5.

[0050] The purpose of the safety cover 5 and locking mechanism of the washing tank 2 is to prevent product leakage, improve work efficiency, reduce manual labor intensity, prevent product mixing during the washing process, and eliminate potential quality hazards.

[0051] The specific operating procedure for the rubber hose cleaning device with the above structure is as follows:

[0052] (1) Prepare two hose units for use.

[0053] The hoses are placed into two loading baskets 4 according to their classification, and the hoses in each loading basket 4 are neatly stacked, forming different hose units in each loading basket 4.

[0054] (2) Different hose units are placed into the corresponding cleaning tanks.

[0055] Place the two material baskets 4 containing the rubber hoses into the corresponding washing tanks 2 in sequence;

[0056] (3) The hose is fixed by the safety cover 5 and locking mechanism of the washing tank 2.

[0057] After placing the two loading baskets 4 into the washing tank, rotate the safety cover 5 hinged to the washing tank 2 so that the safety cover 5 covers the opening of the washing tank 2, and lock the safety cover 5 on the opening of the washing tank 2 through the locking mechanism to prevent the rubber tube from flowing out during the rotation of the roller 1.

[0058] After the two hose units are fixed, the starting device roller 1 is rotated to clean the hoses. After cleaning, the entire loading basket 4 is taken out of the washing tank 2 and directly enters the next process without sorting or loading.

[0059] The cleaning principle described above is based on the technical principles of existing washing machines.

[0060] Based on specific operational cases, this solution significantly improves the cleaning capacity of hoses compared to the traditional mixed cleaning method. The traditional mixed cleaning method cleans approximately 9,000 hoses per day, while the unitized cleaning method of this solution cleans approximately 20,000 hoses per day.
