TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of cleaning, in particular to a cleaning device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the processing and manufacturing industry, such as injection molding, molding, etc., the molding machine and other processing and manufacturing machinery are widely used as basic equipment. However, with the improvement of production requirements and the continuous progress of technology, the molding machine and other processing and manufacturing machinery have exposed more and more limitations in the cleaning of processing tools. Taking the molding machine as an example, after the molding machine completes the work, a large amount of residual material is often left on the surface of the mold for some materials that are easy to produce dust and debris. These residues not only affect the appearance and quality of the next product, but also accelerate the wear of the mold if not cleaned in time and effectively, resulting in damage to the mold cavity and shortening the service life of the mold. The traditional cleaning method is to use a brush to clean the mold by manual labor. However, this cleaning method has the problems of high labor intensity, long time consumption, poor cleaning effect, etc., and manual cleaning is more and more difficult to match the faster and faster production rhythm, which seriously affects the production efficiency of the product. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

The cleaning component comprises a dust collecting hood, a dust suction pipeline, a blowing assembly and at least one brush. The brush is arranged in the dust collecting hood, a ventilation opening is formed in the side wall of the dust collecting hood, the ventilation opening is communicated with the dust suction pipeline, the blowing assembly is arranged outside the dust collecting hood and spaced apart from the dust collecting hood, and the blowing assembly and the dust collecting hood are connected with each other through a fixed support.
[0005] The beneficial effects of the present application are that when the cleaning device is used for cleaning, the brush in the dust collecting hood cleans the area to be cleaned, the processing residues raised are sucked away through the dust suction pipeline and the ventilation opening arranged on the dust collecting hood, so as to avoid the residues from being left in the area to be cleaned again, and the blowing assembly spaced apart from the dust collecting hood is used to clean the area to be cleaned before the brush in the dust collecting hood cleans the area to be cleaned, so as to clean the residues that are difficult to be cleaned by the brush, thereby improving the cleaning performance and cleaning efficiency of the cleaning device.
