Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of hose production equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic hose cleaning and assembly device. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber hoses are tubular rubber products used to transport gases, liquids, slurries, or granular materials. They typically consist of a supporting skeleton and inner and outer rubber layers covering the supporting skeleton. Depending on the application, the inner and outer rubber layers can be made of different materials: for general applications, natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, or butadiene rubber can be used; oil-resistant hoses use chloroprene rubber or nitrile rubber; acid and alkali resistant and high-temperature resistant hoses use ethylene propylene rubber, fluororubber, or silicone rubber, etc. Rubber hoses can adapt to most industrial application needs and are widely used in various fields.

[0003] Depending on the application scenario, some hoses need to be kept clean inside to avoid contamination during use. Therefore, during the manufacturing process, the hoses need to be cleaned and the openings sealed with closure components. The conventional production method is to manually clean the hoses by spraying liquid or gas through nozzles and then inserting the closure components. However, using manual cleaning and assembly methods has several drawbacks. First, the cleanliness of the hoses and the assembly precision vary from person to person, which can easily lead to incomplete cleaning and missing closure components. Second, manual cleaning of hoses and installation of closure components are inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0013] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0014] 1. This application provides an automatic hose cleaning and assembly device. By setting a cleaning structure and an assembly structure in the hose conveying structure, the automatic hose cleaning and assembly device transports the hose using the hose conveying structure and the sealing component using the assembly conveying structure. When the hose conveying structure transports the hose to the cleaning structure, the cleaning structure sprays cleaning liquid or cleaning gas onto the hose to clean it. When the assembly conveying structure transports the sealing component to the junction of the hose conveying structure, the assembly drive assembly drives the assembly pressure head to pick up the sealing component and assemble it onto the hose. The cleaning and assembly processes do not require manual operation, which can effectively ensure cleaning and assembly efficiency and assembly accuracy, and improve the production quality of hoses.

[0015] 2. The automatic cleaning and assembly device for rubber hoses provided in this application includes a cleaning nozzle and a drying nozzle in the cleaning structure. After cleaning the rubber hose, the drying nozzle can dry the hose in time, effectively reducing residue inside the hose, thereby enabling it to quickly cooperate with the subsequent assembly structure and improving efficiency. At the same time, by setting up a junction and using the assembly structure to pick up the sealing part from the junction for assembly, the assembly structure can move quickly and be compact, effectively ensuring assembly efficiency and assembly accuracy.

The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and the aforementioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0025] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing embodiments of this application only and is not intended to limit this application.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 This application provides an automatic hose cleaning and assembly device, including a base 1, a hose conveying structure 2 disposed on the base 1, and an assembly conveying structure 3. The hose conveying structure 2 is provided with a cleaning structure 4 and an assembly structure 5. When the automatic hose cleaning and assembly device is in operation, the hose conveying structure 2 is used to convey the hose, and the assembly conveying structure 3 is used to convey the sealing component. When the hose conveying structure 2 conveys the hose to the cleaning structure 4, the cleaning structure 4 sprays cleaning liquid or cleaning gas onto the hose to clean it. When the assembly conveying structure 3 conveys the sealing component to a designated position, the assembly structure 5 picks up the sealing component and assembles it onto the hose.

[0027] Specifically, the base 1 supports the various structures. The hose conveying structure 2 includes a hose loading tray 21 and a hose conveying guide rail 22 connected to the hose loading tray 21. The hose loading tray 21 is a vibrating plate, and it is filled with a certain amount of hose material. The hose conveying guide rail 22 is fixedly connected to the hose loading tray 21. Driven by the hose loading tray 21, the hose material is conveyed along the hose conveying guide rail 22. To limit the hose, the hose conveying guide rail 22 includes a first guide rail pair 221 and a second guide rail pair 222. The first guide rail pair 221 and the second guide rail pair 222 form a limiting groove for limiting the hose. The hose is clamped between the first guide rail pair 221 and the second guide rail so that the hose can be conveyed along the limiting groove.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 as well as Figure 3The assembly conveying structure 3 is located on one side of the hose output structure. The assembly conveying structure 3 includes an assembly loading tray 31 and an assembly conveying guide rail 32 connected to the assembly loading tray 31. The assembly loading tray 31 is a vibrating plate, filled with several sealing materials, which are pistons. To limit the sealing material, the assembly conveying guide rail 32 is provided with a first limiting pair 321 and a second limiting pair 322, forming a limiting cavity. The sealed object moves along the assembly conveying guide rail 32 within the limiting cavity. The assembly conveying guide rail 32 faces and intersects with the hose conveying guide rail 22. Driven by the assembly loading tray 31, the assembly conveying guide rail 32 moves to the intersection of the assembly conveying guide rail 32 and the hose conveying guide rail 22 for assembly.

[0029] Reference Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 The cleaning structure 4 and the assembly structure 5 are disposed on the hose conveying guide rail 22, with the cleaning structure 4 facing the hose conveying guide rail 22. Specifically, the cleaning structure 4 includes a cleaning support base 41 disposed on the hose conveying guide rail 22, which is fastened and installed above the hose conveying guide rail 22. The cleaning support base 41 is connected to a cleaning nozzle 42 and a drying nozzle 43, which are located inside the cleaning support base 41 and face the hose conveying guide rail 22. With the cleaning structure 4 disposed in this way, when the hose moves through the hose conveying guide rail 22 into the cleaning support base 41, the cleaning nozzle 42 sprays cleaning fluid to clean the hose, and the drying nozzle 43 dries the hose after cleaning, so that the hose can quickly mate with the assembly structure 5.

[0030] To ensure the positional stability of the hose during cleaning and to facilitate hose transport, the hose transport structure 2 also includes a transfer transport component 23. The transfer transport component 23 is arranged along the length of the hose transport guide rail 22. The transfer transport component 23 is used to stably clamp the hose and transport it orderly during cleaning and assembly. Specifically, the transfer transport component 23 includes a transfer guide rail 231 disposed on the base 1 and several transfer clamping components 232 disposed on the transfer guide rail 231. The transfer guide rail 231 includes a first transfer guide rail 2311 and a second transfer guide rail 2312 disposed on the first transfer guide rail 2311. The first transfer guide rail 2311 is laid along the direction of the hose transport guide rail 22, and the direction of the second transfer guide rail 2312 is perpendicular to the direction of the first transfer guide rail 2311.

[0031] The second transfer guide rail 2312 is equipped with a movable seat 2313, and several transfer clamping components 232 are disposed on the movable seat 2313. The transfer clamping components 232 include a transfer drive component 2321 and a gripper 2322 disposed on the transfer drive component 2321. Driven by the first transfer guide rail 2311 and the second transfer guide rail 2312, the gripper 2322 can grip the corresponding hose and move forward one stroke. During cleaning and assembly, the gripper 2322 grips the hose to fix it. After cleaning and assembly are completed, the gripper 2322 drives the hose to move one stroke to realize transportation.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 The assembly structure 5 is located at the junction of the assembly conveying guide rail 32 and the hose conveying guide rail 22. The assembly structure 5 includes an assembly drive assembly 51 and an assembly pressure head 52 disposed on the assembly drive assembly 51, with the assembly pressure head 52 facing the hose conveying guide rail 22. Specifically, an assembly limiting seat 323 is slidably disposed at the junction of the assembly conveying guide rail 32 and the hose conveying guide rail 22. The assembly limiting seat 323 is located above the hose conveying guide rail 22, and its end is closed to restrict closed objects moving there. The assembly limiting seat 323 is driven by a cylinder to achieve sliding. The assembly drive assembly 51 includes an assembly cylinder, and the assembly pressure head 52 is disposed on the output shaft of the assembly cylinder, located above the junction of the hose conveying guide rail 22 and the assembly conveying guide rail 32.

[0033] The assembly limit seat 323 is connected to or disconnected from the assembly conveying guide rail 32 by the cylinder to obtain and transport the closed object. During installation, the assembly limit seat 323 moves the closed object to the bottom of the assembly pressure head 52 under the drive of the cylinder. Under the drive of the assembly drive assembly 51, the assembly pressure head 52 first descends to pick up the closed object. After the assembly limit seat 323 is reset, the assembly pressure head 52 drives the closed object to install the closed object into the opening of the hose.

[0034] Looking back Figure 3 To ensure operational stability, the automatic hose cleaning and assembly device also includes a sensing structure 6, which comprises a first sensor 61 mounted on the hose conveying guide rail 22 and a second sensor 62 mounted on the assembly conveying guide rail 32. When no material passes the position corresponding to the first sensor 61 or the second sensor 62, the first sensor 61 or the second sensor 62 will issue an alarm or stop the machine to indicate a malfunction or the need for replenishment of raw materials.

[0035] Exemplary embodiments of this disclosure have been specifically shown and described above. It should be understood that this disclosure is not limited to the detailed structures, arrangements, or implementations described herein; rather, this disclosure is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements contained within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
