[0035] The specific embodiments of the bicycle washing machine of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] This utility model of bicycle washing machine is used in indoor places such as shopping malls. Indoor places only need to provide power and air supply to work. It occupies a small area, and the cleaning process is fast, efficient, simple and convenient.
[0037] See appendix Figures 1-4 The bicycle washing machine has a rectangular structure, approximately 2 meters in length and height, and less than 1 meter in depth, making it easy to place a bicycle inside for washing. The washing chamber is mounted on the work surface via casters 17 at the bottom, facilitating easy movement.
[0038] A hanging bracket 2 is installed inside the rear of the bicycle washing machine's compartment 1 for suspending bicycles. The hanging bracket 2 is fixed to a support rod on the rear side of the compartment 1. The hanging bracket 2 has multiple rows of mounting holes to adjust the installation height. The front end of the hanging bracket 2 is a T-shaped hanging head, which can form an insertion hole to accommodate different bicycle suspensions.
[0039] A guide plate 3 is installed in the lower middle part of the chamber 1, dividing the chamber 1 into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. A water outlet 4 is installed on the guide plate 3. The guide plate 3 has a structure with high sides and low water outlet 4. A filter tray 5 is also arranged in the upper chamber for placing disassembled bicycle parts.
[0040] A door 6 is installed on the upper compartment, which is made of transparent material or has a transparent observation window 7. A glove opening 8 and a glove 9 that extends into the compartment 1 are provided on the door 6, and the upper compartment and the door 6 form a relatively enclosed space. The door 6 is a double-opening type, with glove openings 8 and gloves 9 symmetrically arranged on the two doors 6.
[0041] The outlet 4 is connected to the cleaning agent tank 10 located below. A liquid supply pump 11 is also installed in the lower compartment. The liquid supply pump 11 is connected to the electrical control unit. The inlet of the liquid supply pump 11 is connected to the cleaning agent tank 10, and the outlet is connected to the spray gun 12 in the upper compartment through a pipeline. A foot switch 13 is installed on the operator's side of the compartment 1. The foot switch 13 is connected to the electrical control unit, which controls the opening and closing of the liquid supply pump 11.
[0042] A position sensor is installed on the door 6. The electronic control unit receives the door locking information fed back by the position sensor. When the door 6 is locked, the electronic control unit controls the liquid supply pump 11 to work. When the door 6 is in the open state, the electronic control unit ensures that the liquid injection pump will not be started, so as to prevent the spray gun 12 from spraying the cleaning agent out of the compartment 1 if the foot switch 13 is accidentally stepped on.
[0043] A sliding rod 14 is installed inside the upper compartment, and the pipeline of the liquid supply pump 11 is slidably mounted on the sliding rod 14. The pipeline can be suspended on the sliding rod 14 by a slider, and the extension length of the spray gun 12 can be adjusted for easy cleaning of different parts of the bicycle. For the compartment 1 with double doors and double gloves 9, there are also two spray guns 12, which are respectively set at the corresponding positions of the two gloves 9, and both spray guns 12 are connected to the liquid supply pump 11.
[0044] In addition, an air gun 15 is installed in the upper compartment. The air gun 15 is connected to an external air source through an air pipe, which is also slidably mounted on the slide bar 14.
[0045] A heating unit is installed inside the cleaning agent tank 10. The heating unit is connected to an electrical control unit, which controls the cleaning agent tank 10 to maintain a constant temperature of 40℃-50℃. A level gauge 16 is installed on the cleaning agent tank 10, located on the front side of the tank body 1.
[0046] The cleaning agent tank 10 is located in the space below the lower compartment, and rollers 17 are also installed below the cleaning agent tank 10. The liquid supply pump 11 is mounted on a support crossbar in the lower compartment. The cleaning agent tank 10 can be pulled out directly from below for cleaning agent replacement. A small door 18 is also provided on the lower compartment to protect the internal cleaning agent tank 10 and liquid supply pump 11. An observation hole is provided on the small door 18 corresponding to the position of the liquid level gauge 16 of the cleaning agent tank 10.
[0047] When cleaning a bicycle, first heat the cleaning agent in the cleaning tank to a constant temperature of 45°C. You can turn on the equipment one hour in advance to control the heating. Secure the bicycle to the hanger 2. If it's a bicycle part, place it in the filter tray 5. Close and lock the compartment door 6. Put your hand inside the glove 9 and step on the foot switch 13 to start the liquid supply pump 11. Use the spray gun 12 to rinse the bicycle or parts. The liquid supply pump 11 draws cleaning agent from the cleaning agent tank 10 and delivers it to the spray gun 12, outputting a liquid flow of 30-40 bar to clean the bicycle or parts. The cleaned liquid flows back into the cleaning agent tank 10 via the guide plate 3. After cleaning, use the air gun 15 to blow away the cleaned frame or parts. Finally, open the compartment door 6 and remove the cleaned bicycle or parts. If necessary, dry them with a dry cloth.
[0048] Because the cleaning agent used is VOC-free (volatile organic compounds) and contains antibacterial agents to effectively prevent microbial growth, it will not mold or smell bad even after long-term use. Therefore, the returned cleaning agent can be reused. The cleaning agent tank 10 has a capacity of 100L. When the liquid level is observed to be below 40L via the level gauge 16, or after a certain number of uses and time, the cleaning agent needs to be replenished or replaced. Simply open the small door 18 and pull out the cleaning agent tank 10 to replace or replenish the cleaning agent.
[0049] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
