Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of chain oiling technology, specifically relating to an oil brush wheel for chain oiling and cleaning. Background Technology

[0002] To ensure smooth production, regular maintenance and upkeep of the equipment are necessary, and chain lubrication and cleaning are among the essential aspects. Chain lubrication primarily involves applying lubricating oil to the chain, allowing it to penetrate the gaps between the rollers and chain plates, or between the chain pins and chain plates. Currently, chain lubrication typically involves using a bristle-covered plate or wheel to contact the chain, thus achieving lubrication and cleaning. However, since industrial chains are generally quite large, the width of the plate or wheel must match the chain width to ensure effective lubrication. This leads to the following problems:

[0003] 1. In order to ensure that the bristles are covered with lubricating oil, the oil spray nozzles need to be arranged in a row, so that the bristles can be evenly covered with lubricating oil, thus increasing the amount of lubricating oil used.

[0004] 2. Because rollers are spaced apart in the middle of the chain, the bristles in the middle of the chain can only apply lubricant to the rollers intermittently, while the chain plates on both sides of the chain are continuously lubricated. Under the premise of ensuring the lubrication effect of the chain plates, there will be excess lubricant on the bristles in the middle of the chain. This causes excess lubricant to fall from the gaps between adjacent rollers, resulting in lubricant waste. It can also easily lead to pollution of the on-site working environment and may cause fire.

[0005] 3. Since the main purpose of lubrication is to allow the lubricating oil to penetrate into the gap between the roller and the chain plate or the gap between the chain pin and the chain plate, the existing method of applying lubricating oil to the surface of the roller is not cost-effective and is prone to causing waste of lubricating oil. Utility Model Content

[0006] This invention provides an oil brush wheel for chain lubrication and cleaning to address the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A brush wheel for lubricating and cleaning chains includes a wheel body, an oil inlet hole in the middle of one side of the wheel body, an oil groove with a V-shaped cross-section inside the wheel body, and multiple through holes symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the circumferential surface of the wheel body. The through holes are connected to the oil groove. Brush bristles are fixedly installed in the through hole area on the circumferential surface of the wheel body. A first rotating shaft is installed on one side of the wheel body and is threadedly connected to the oil inlet hole. The first rotating shaft has a hollow structure, and its inner cavity is connected to the oil inlet hole. The outer wall of the first rotating shaft is sealed to the oil inlet hole. A second rotating shaft is fixedly installed on the other side of the wheel body.

[0009] Furthermore, an arc-shaped groove is provided in the middle of the circumferential surface of the wheel to prevent the wheel from contacting the roller in the middle of the chain, which could damage the chain.

[0010] Furthermore, the bristles are made of nylon.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0012] This utility model features through holes and brush bristles on the chain plates on both sides of the chain, which can accurately apply lubricating oil to the chain plates, avoiding waste of lubricating oil, improving the cleanliness of the on-site working environment, and eliminating the fire hazard caused by lubricating oil dripping.

[0013] This invention features an arc-shaped groove in the center of the circumferential surface of the wheel, which effectively prevents the wheel from contacting the roller in the middle of the chain, thus avoiding damage to the chain. Attached Figure Description

[0014] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model;

[0015] In the diagram, 1 is the wheel body, 2 is the oil inlet, 3 is the oil groove, 4 is the through hole, 5 is the brush bristles, 6 is the first rotating shaft, 7 is the second rotating shaft, and 8 is the arc groove. Detailed Implementation

[0016] To further illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following embodiments will be used to further explain this utility model.

[0017] like Figure 1As shown, an oil brush wheel for chain lubrication and cleaning includes a wheel body 1. An oil inlet 2 is provided in the center of one side of the wheel body 1. An oil groove 3 with a V-shaped cross-section is provided inside the wheel body 1. Multiple through holes 4 are symmetrically provided on the left and right sides of the circumferential surface of the wheel body 1. The through holes 4 are evenly distributed along the circumferential surface of the wheel body 1 and are connected to the oil groove 3. Brush bristles 5 are fixedly installed within the area of ​​the through holes 4 on the circumferential surface of the wheel body 1. The material of the brush bristles 5 is... The wheel body 1 is made of nylon. A first rotating shaft 6 is provided on one side of the wheel body 1. The first rotating shaft 6 is threadedly connected to the oil inlet hole 2. The first rotating shaft 6 has a hollow structure. The inner cavity of the first rotating shaft 6 is connected to the oil inlet hole 2. The outer wall of the first rotating shaft 6 is sealed to the oil inlet hole 2. A second rotating shaft 7 is fixedly provided on the other side of the wheel body 1. An arc-shaped groove 8 is provided in the middle of the circumference of the wheel body 1 to prevent the wheel body 1 from contacting the roller in the middle of the chain, which would damage the chain.

[0018] In use, the wheel 1 is rotatably mounted on the support structure via the first rotating shaft 6 and the second rotating shaft 7, so that it comes into contact with the brush bristles 5 on both sides and the chain. At the same time, the contact friction drives the wheel 1 to rotate synchronously with the chain, thereby lubricating the chain. The first rotating shaft 6 is connected to the oil pipe through a rotary joint, which ensures rotation while achieving a sealed connection with the oil pipe, effectively ensuring the stable delivery of lubricating oil.
