However, over long-term use, dust, fibers, and other impurities tend to accumulate in these chambers and channels. Furthermore, during operation, the adsorbed material may leave some impurities around the adsorption pores, affecting the normal operation of the vacuum adsorption roller. Traditional cleaning methods, such as rinsing, are cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a vacuum roller that is easy to clean to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 The vacuum roller shown includes a vacuum roller body 1, a rotating component 2 and a vacuum component 3 respectively on both sides of the vacuum roller body 1, a support foot 4 installed at the bottom of the rotating component 2 and the vacuum component 3, a wastewater collection device 5 at the bottom of the vacuum roller body 1, and a cleaning component 6 inside the vacuum roller body 1.

[0030] Specifically, the vacuum roller body 1 is provided with a plurality of uniformly arranged adsorption holes 11;

[0031] Reference Figure 1-2 The rotating component 2 includes a rotating disk 21, a motor 22 connected to one side of the rotating disk 21, the rotating disk 21 is disposed on both sides of the vacuum roller body 1 and supports the vacuum roller body 1, and a cleaning component 6 is installed on the rotating disk 21.

[0032] Specifically, the vacuum assembly 3 includes a negative pressure motor 31 disposed on the other side of the vacuum roller body 1 and a negative pressure pipe 32 disposed in the middle of the two rotating disks 21.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 The cleaning component 6 includes a rotating motor 61 mounted on a rotating disk 21. A rotating track 62 is also provided inside the rotating disk 21. A cleaning rod 63 is installed in the rotating track 62. The rotating motor 61 drives the cleaning rod 63 in the rotating track 62 to rotate.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 The rotating track 62 has a T-shaped cross section and houses the cleaning rod 63. The cleaning rod 63 has turntables 64 at both ends, which are placed inside the rotating track 62. The cleaning rod 63 is also provided with a cleaning brush 65 on the outside, and the outer wall of the cleaning brush 65 is attached to the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1.

[0035] Specifically, the overall length of the cleaning brush 65 corresponds to the farthest distance between the adsorption holes 11 on the vacuum roller body 1, and the cleaning component 6 rotates inside the vacuum roller body 1, with its outer wall constantly brushing the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1.

[0036] Reference Figure 3-4 The negative pressure pipe 32 is also provided with an air jet hole 33 and a liquid spray hole 34, both of which act on the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 Wastewater collection device 5 is placed at the bottom of vacuum roller body 1 and includes collection box 51. The upper end of collection box 51 is provided with opening 52. The shape of opening 52 corresponds to the shape of the outer wall of vacuum roller body 1. The bottom of the inner side of collection box 51 is provided with inclined surfaces that slope to both sides, and the outer walls on both sides are provided with drain outlets 53.

[0038] Specifically, the jet nozzle 33 and the liquid injection nozzle 34 both act on different chambers of the negative pressure pipe 32.

[0039] In this embodiment, the rotating disk 21 of the rotating assembly 2 is installed on both sides of the vacuum roller body 1 to ensure that the rotating disk 21 can stably support the vacuum roller body 1. Simultaneously with the installation of the rotating disk 21, the cleaning assembly 6 is installed onto the rotating disk 21. Specifically, the cleaning rod 63 is placed inside the rotating track 62, so that the turntables 64 at both ends of the cleaning rod 63 are located within the rotating track 62, and the cleaning brush 65 on the outside of the cleaning rod 63 can adhere to the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1.

[0040] Specifically, a vacuum assembly 3 is installed on one side of the vacuum roller body 1. A negative pressure motor 31 is installed on the other side of the vacuum roller body 1, and a negative pressure pipe 32 is installed in the middle of the two rotating disks 21. An air jet hole 33 and a liquid spray hole 34 are respectively provided on the negative pressure pipe 32 to ensure that the air jet hole 33 and the liquid spray hole 34 can act on different chambers on the negative pressure pipe 32, and both can act on the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1.

[0041] Furthermore, support feet 4 are installed at the bottom of the rotating assembly 2 and the vacuum assembly 3 to provide stable support for the entire device. Finally, a wastewater collection device 5 is installed at the bottom of the vacuum roller body 1, and the collection box 51 is placed in a suitable position so that the opening 52 at the top of the collection box 51 is aligned with the outer wall of the vacuum roller body 1, and the drain ports 53 on both sides of the outer wall of the collection box 51 are in normal drainage condition.

[0042] In this embodiment, when cleaning of the vacuum roller body 1 is required, the motor 22 in the rotating assembly 2 is activated, causing the rotating disk 21 to drive the vacuum roller body 1 to rotate. Simultaneously, the rotating motor 61 in the cleaning assembly 6 is activated, driving the cleaning rod 63 within the rotating track 62 to rotate. As the cleaning rod 63 rotates, its external cleaning brush 65 performs a roller brush cleaning of the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1. Since the overall length of the cleaning brush 65 corresponds to the farthest distance between the adsorption holes 11, it can comprehensively cover all areas of the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1, including the area around the adsorption holes 11, effectively removing dirt from the inner wall.

[0043] Furthermore, during the cleaning process, the negative pressure motor 31 in the vacuum assembly 3 can be activated to generate negative pressure in the negative pressure pipe 32, depending on the type of dirt and cleaning needs. Simultaneously, gas is ejected through the air jet holes 33 on the negative pressure pipe 32, which can blow away loose dirt, such as dust, from the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1. If there is stubborn dirt on the inner wall, such as dried ink or adhered impurities, cleaning fluid can be sprayed through the spray holes 34. The cleaning fluid can dissolve these stubborn dirt particles, which are then either brushed away by the cleaning brush 65 or carried away by the gas blown from the air jet holes 33.

[0044] Furthermore, both the cleaning fluid sprayed from the nozzle 34 and the mixture of cleaned dirt and water will flow to the bottom of the vacuum roller body 1 under gravity. Since the shape of the upper opening 52 of the wastewater collection tank 51 corresponds to the shape of the outer wall of the vacuum roller body 1, this wastewater and impurities will flow into the collection tank 51. The inclined design of the bottom inner side of the collection tank 51 allows the wastewater and impurities to converge towards the drain ports 53 on both sides, facilitating the discharge of wastewater and impurities from the collection tank 51.

[0045] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1 can be thoroughly cleaned by rotating the cleaning rod 63 of the cleaning component 6 and using the roller brush 65. The cleaning brush 65 can cover the area around the adsorption holes 11, ensuring that the adsorption holes 11 are unobstructed and maintaining the adsorption function of the vacuum roller. At the same time, the auxiliary cleaning effect of the air jet holes 33 and liquid spray holes 34 on the negative pressure pipe 32 can effectively remove various types of dirt, whether it is loose dust or stubborn stains, and a good cleaning effect can be achieved.

[0046] Specifically, since the cleaning component 6 cleans inside the vacuum roller body 1 as the rotating disk 21 rotates, and the cleaning function of the negative pressure pipe 32 can work in conjunction with the cleaning component 6, this multi-mode cleaning mechanism can complete the cleaning task in a shorter time, thus improving cleaning efficiency.

[0047] Specifically, effective cleaning prevents excessive dirt buildup inside and on the inner wall of the vacuum roller body 1. Dirt buildup can affect the normal operation of the vacuum roller, such as clogging the adsorption holes 11 leading to decreased adsorption capacity, or increasing wear and tear on the equipment. Effective cleaning reduces these risks of failure and ensures stable equipment operation.

[0048] Specifically, because the cleaning process can remove dirt in a timely manner, it reduces the corrosion and wear of equipment components. For example, the cleaning brush 65 promptly removes chemical dirt that may corrode the inner wall of the vacuum roller 1, and the cleaning function of the negative pressure pipe 32 prevents dirt from accumulating inside the negative pressure pipe 32 and causing damage, thereby extending the service life of the equipment.

[0049] In this embodiment, if the performance of the vacuum roller is found to be affected by dirt during the production process, since the vacuum roller has the cleaning function of the internal cleaning component 6 and the negative pressure pipe 32, partial cleaning operations can be performed without stopping the production equipment. For example, the air jet hole 33 can be activated for simple air blowing cleaning or the cleaning component 6 can be activated for short-term roller brush cleaning, thereby reducing the production interruption time and improving production efficiency.

[0050] Specifically, a cleaned vacuum roller can perform its adsorption and other functions effectively, allowing for better adsorption and transport of materials during the production process. For example, in the printing industry, a cleaned vacuum roller can accurately adsorb paper, preventing problems such as paper shifting due to insufficient adsorption force, thereby improving product quality.

[0051] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
