Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange processing technology, specifically to a flange hole chip blowing device. Background Technology
[0002] During flange drilling or machining, metal shavings, dust, and other debris inevitably remain. The presence of these impurities not only affects the cleanliness of the flange connection surfaces but can also lead to poor sealing, thereby impacting the performance and safety of the entire system. Therefore, thoroughly removing these impurities is crucial for ensuring the quality of the flange connection.
[0003] Currently, flanges are typically cleaned manually after processing. Operators use small blowers to clean each flange hole in turn. Processing each hole individually cannot ensure that all holes are cleaned evenly. Manual operation is time-consuming, reduces overall production efficiency, and increases labor costs. Furthermore, the debris generated during the blowing process is prone to flying everywhere, increasing the risk of recontamination after cleaning. Therefore, there is a need for an efficient and environmentally friendly flange hole debris blowing device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is the low cleaning efficiency and the overflow of debris. This invention provides a high-efficiency and environmentally friendly flange hole debris blowing device.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a flange hole chip blowing device, including a flange body, a base, a top plate, a blowing plate and a dust collector;
[0006] After the base is placed on the ground, the top is connected to the top plate by a support rod. Multiple support rods are evenly arranged around the edge of the top surface of the base. A cavity is formed on the top surface of the base, and a detachable wire basket is placed in the cavity to hold the flange body to be cleaned. Multiple flange holes are evenly opened on the flange body.
[0007] The blower plate is located on the bottom surface of the top plate and is connected to the air inlet pipe on the top plate. It has multiple evenly distributed small nozzles to generate concentrated and powerful airflow.
[0008] The vacuum cleaner located at the bottom of the base is connected to the inside of the cavity and is positioned opposite the blower plate to collect the blown debris in real time.
[0009] As an improvement, the base has a cavity for holding the vacuum cleaner, making it easier to install the vacuum cleaner.
[0010] As an improvement, a hydraulic telescopic rod is also included. The blower plate and the air inlet pipe are connected by a telescopic hose. After the hydraulic telescopic rod is fixed in the center of the bottom surface of the top plate, it pushes the blower plate closer to or away from the flange body. The small nozzle is pushed into the flange hole, which facilitates the thorough cleaning of the flange body. The small nozzle is pushed into the flange hole, which can improve the efficiency and quality of chip removal.
[0011] As an improvement, a positioning sleeve is also included. Multiple positioning sleeves are evenly fixed inside the wire mesh basket and are matched with the small nozzles. After the flange body is placed inside the wire mesh basket, it is fixed by the positioning sleeve through the flange hole, which makes it convenient to limit the placement of the flange body so that its flange hole corresponds to the small nozzle, making it convenient for the small nozzle to enter the flange hole for operation.
[0012] As an improvement, a limiting rod is fixed inside the cavity. After the wire mesh basket is placed inside the cavity, the limiting sleeve on the bottom is placed around the limiting rod, which facilitates the installation of the wire mesh basket and allows for regular cleaning.
[0013] As an improvement, an installation and fixing mechanism is also included. The installation and fixing mechanism includes an arc-shaped plate and an arc-shaped groove. The arc-shaped plate is formed on the outer wall of the wire mesh basket and multiple arc-shaped plates are set along the edge. The top surface of the base is provided with an arc-shaped groove that matches the arc-shaped plate. After the wire mesh basket is placed in the cavity, each arc-shaped plate enters into its respective arc-shaped groove. Multiple bolts pass through the arc-shaped plate and are threadedly connected to the pre-set threaded holes in the arc-shaped groove, which facilitates the fixing of the wire mesh basket and improves its stability.
[0014] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:
[0015] 1. Compressed air works through the blower plate to ensure that each flange hole is fully covered, and with the fixed nozzles extending into the flange holes, it effectively removes internal chips, burrs and other contaminants;
[0016] 2. The bottom vacuum cleaner instantly collects the blown debris, preventing it from settling again or spreading into the surrounding environment;
[0017] 3. Compared to the accidental scratches or damage that may be caused by hand tools, this non-contact chip blowing method is gentler on the flange surface and reduces the possibility of physical damage. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] A flange hole chip blowing device, combined with an attached Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a base 2 and a top plate 3; after the base 2 is placed on the ground, the top plate 3 is connected to the top of the base 2 by a support rod 6, and multiple support rods 6 are evenly arranged around the edge of the top surface of the base 2.
[0028] The flange body 1 and the base 2 have a cavity 7 formed on their top surfaces. A detachable wire mesh basket 8 is placed inside the cavity 7 to accommodate the flange body 1 to be cleaned. Multiple flange holes are evenly distributed on the flange body 1. A limit rod 14 is fixed inside the cavity 7. After the wire mesh basket 8 is placed inside the cavity 7, the limit sleeve 15 on the bottom surface is placed around the limit rod 14 to facilitate the installation of the wire mesh basket 8 for regular cleaning. The system also includes an installation and fixing mechanism, which includes an arc plate 16 and an arc groove 17. The arc plate 16 is formed on the outer wall of the wire mesh basket 8 and multiple arc plates are provided along the edge. The top surface of the base 2 has an arc groove 17 that matches the arc plate 16. After the wire mesh basket 8 is placed inside the cavity 7, each arc plate 16 enters into each arc groove 17, and multiple bolts pass through the arc plate 16 and are threadedly connected to the threaded holes 18 in the arc groove 17 to facilitate the fixing of the wire mesh basket 8 and improve its stability.
[0029] The blowing plate 4, located on the bottom surface of the top plate 3, is connected to the air inlet pipe 9 on the top plate 3 and has multiple evenly distributed small nozzles 10 for generating concentrated and powerful airflow. It also includes a hydraulic telescopic rod 12. The blowing plate 4 and the air inlet pipe 9 are connected by a telescopic hose. After the hydraulic telescopic rod 12 is fixed in the center of the bottom surface of the top plate 3, it pushes the blowing plate 4 closer to or away from the flange body 1. The small nozzles 10 are pushed into the flange hole, which facilitates the thorough cleaning of the flange body 1. The small nozzles 10 being pushed into the flange hole can improve the cleaning efficiency and quality. It also includes a positioning sleeve 13. Multiple positioning sleeves 13 are evenly fixed in the wire mesh basket 8 and are matched with the small nozzles 10. After the flange body 1 is placed in the wire mesh basket 8, it is limited and fixed by the positioning sleeve 13 through the flange hole, which facilitates the limited placement of the flange body 1 and makes its flange hole correspond to the small nozzles 10, so that the small nozzles 10 can enter the flange hole to work.
[0030] The vacuum cleaner 5 is located at the bottom of the base 2 and is connected to the interior of the cavity 7. It is arranged opposite to the blower plate 4 to collect the blown debris. The base 2 has a receiving cavity 11 to accommodate the vacuum cleaner 5, which facilitates the installation of the vacuum cleaner 5.
[0031] In practical implementation, the flange body 1 to be cleaned is placed in the wire mesh basket 8, with each flange hole fitted onto the positioning sleeve 13. Then, the air inlet pipe 9 is connected to an external compressed air machine, and compressed air is sprayed out through multiple small nozzles 10 on the blower plate 4 to blow off the residue on the flange body 1. The residue is quickly collected by the vacuum cleaner 5 through the mesh on the wire mesh basket 8. While cleaning the debris, the hydraulic telescopic rod 12 pushes the blower plate 4 downward, making it continuously approach the flange body 1 until the small nozzles 10 enter the flange holes, which can clean the inside of the flange holes. After cleaning the debris, the hydraulic telescopic rod 12 is pulled away to remove the cleaned flange body 1.
