Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning machine technology, specifically to an automated cleaning machine for grinding linear guide rail sliders. Background Technology

[0002] Linear guides, also known as linear rails, slide rails, or linear guideways, are precision parts used in linear reciprocating motion applications. They can withstand a certain amount of torque and achieve high-precision linear motion under high loads. The slider is the moving part on the linear guide, which works with the guide to achieve linear motion. A linear guide slider grinding and cleaning machine is a device used to clean the linear guide slider after grinding. Currently, most linear guide sliders are cleaned using ultrasonic cleaning after grinding. However, in the past, the practice relied on manual cleaning of each linear guide slider individually, or manually placing the product in an ultrasonic cleaning device to complete the cleaning process. This method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, inefficient, and difficult to adapt to the fast-paced demands of large-scale production. Utility Model Content

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automated cleaning machine for grinding linear guide sliders, including a support frame 1, a rotating support column 3 rotatably mounted on the top of the support frame 1, a hydraulic cylinder 4 installed inside the rotating support column 3, a first support top plate 5 fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4, a support base frame 7 symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the first support top plate 5, a support base plate 8 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support base frame 7, and a first fixed base plate 9 symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the support base plate 8. A second fixed base plate 10 is connected, and a side hanging block 11 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the second fixed base plate 10. A storage net box 12 is provided below the supporting base plate 8. A hanging top block 13 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the storage net box 12. A hanging groove 14 that cooperates with the side hanging block 11 is opened at the bottom of the hanging top block 13. An ultrasonic cleaning box 2 is provided at the top of the support frame 1. The side hanging block 11 is hung through the hanging groove 14 opened at the bottom of the hanging top block 13, so that the storage net box 12 is hung and fixed inside the second fixed base plate 10.

[0018] The top of the support frame 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting bracket 20, and the top of the connecting bracket 20 is fixedly connected to the fixing bracket 17, so that the fixing bracket 17 is supported by the connecting bracket 20.

[0019] The side hanging block 11 has a fixed side groove 15 on one side, and the hanging top block 13 has a limiting bolt 16 that cooperates with the fixed side groove 15. The limiting bolt 16 cooperates with the fixed side groove 15 on one side of the hanging top block 13 to limit and fix the position of the side hanging block 11 in the hanging groove 14, thereby improving the stability of the hanging of the storage cage 12.

[0020] The support frame 1 is equipped with a servo motor 18. The output end of the servo motor 18 is fixedly connected to the rotating support column 3. The output end of the servo motor 18 drives the rotating support column 3 to rotate back and forth, with a rotation angle of 180 degrees, which facilitates the interchange of the positions of the attached storage cage 12.

[0021] The top of the fixed bracket 17 is fixedly connected to a second support plate 19, which supports and places the storage cage 12.

[0022] Among them, the rotating support column 3 is symmetrically and slidingly equipped with a limit rod 6. The top end of the limit rod 6 is fixedly connected to the first support plate 5. When the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the first support plate 5 to adjust its height, the first support plate 5 drives the limit rod 6 to move synchronously. The limit rod 6 slides within the rotating support column 3, which improves the stability of the adjustment of the first support plate 5.

[0023] Specifically, in use, a storage net box 12 is placed on the second support top plate 19, and a linear guide slider that needs to be cleaned after grinding is placed inside the storage net box 12. Then, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the first support top plate 5, the limit rod 6, and the support base 7 to move downwards for adjustment, misaligning the hanging top block 13, the hanging groove 14 with the second fixed base plate 10 and the side hanging block 11. Then, the hanging groove 14 at the bottom of the hanging top block 13 on the top of the storage net box 12 is matched with the side hanging block 11, moving the hanging groove 14 above the side hanging block 11, and the misalignment is resolved. The hanging top block 13, the hanging groove 14, and the storage net box 12 can then be lifted by the second fixed base plate 10 and the side hanging block 11. Then, the limit bolt 16 can be rotated to enter the fixed side groove 15, and the side hanging block 11 and the second fixed base plate 10 can be aligned with the hanging top block 13. The position within the hanging slot 14 is restricted to stably attach the storage net box 12. After attachment, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the first support top plate 5, support base frame 7, and support base plate 8 to move upward. The output end of the servo motor 18 drives the rotating column 3 to rotate 180 degrees, swapping the positions of the two storage net boxes 12. Then, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the first support top plate 5, support base frame 7, and support base plate 8 to move downward, attaching a new storage net box 12 and the stored linear guide slider to the side hanging block 11 that was not previously attached. The storage net box 12 with the linear guide slider enters the ultrasonic cleaning box 2 for ultrasonic cleaning. The other storage net box 12 has completed the cleaning of the next batch of linear guide sliders, improving efficiency.
