[0025] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0026] An easy-to-clean anchor winch includes an anchor winch body 1. A braking device 2 is installed on the power source of the anchor winch body 1. The braking device 2 includes a hub 3 and brake pads 4. The hub 3 is fixed to the power source. The brake pads 4 can grip the hub 3 to reduce speed or brake. A brush 5 and a bristle roller 6 are movably installed on the brake pads 4. When cleaning is required, i.e., in the working state, the brush 5 or the bristle roller 6 slides between the brake pads 4 and the hub 3. At this time, the two sides of the brush 5 or the two sides of the bristle roller 6 are in close contact with the brake pads 4 and the hub 3. The brush 5 can brush away the salt frost that has condensed on the working surface of the brake pads 4 and the hub 3. Then, the bristle roller 6 is used to wipe away the residual moisture on the surface, which can avoid the wear and corrosion of the working surface by salt frost or moisture, and extend the overall service life of the equipment.

[0027] The brake pad 4 includes a mounting block 41 for connecting to the brake device 2. A friction layer 42 is provided on the side of the mounting block 41 facing the wheel hub 3. A sliding groove 43 is provided on both end faces of the brake pad 4 perpendicular to the wheel hub 3. The sliding groove 43 is arc-shaped and coaxial with the friction layer 42. A retaining groove 44 is provided at the bottom end of the sliding groove 43. The retaining groove 44 is located on the side of the sliding groove 43 away from the wheel hub 3. An accommodating groove 45 is provided on the upper part of the brake pad 4 along the axial direction.

[0028] The brush 5 includes two mounting rods 51, which are slidably connected to two sliding grooves 43 respectively. The other ends of the two mounting rods 51 are fixed to a connecting rod 52. Both sides of the connecting rod 52 are provided with bristles 53. When brushing, the bristles 53 on both sides can be in contact with the brake pad 4 and the wheel hub 3 respectively. A handle 57 is provided on the side of the mounting rod 51 away from the brake pad 4. Pushing the handle 57 can drive the connecting rod 52 to move along the friction layer 42 through the two mounting rods 51, thereby performing the cleaning operation.

[0029] Mounting rod 51 can be snapped into slot 44. At this time, connecting rod 52 and brush bristles 53 are located below friction layer 42. That is, the brush 5 can be fixed below brake pad 4 through slot 44 without contacting wheel hub 3, so that it can be stored when cleaning is not required, avoiding affecting the normal operation of brake device 2.

[0030] A water distribution channel 54 is provided inside the connecting rod 52. The water distribution channel 54 is arranged in the same direction as the connecting rod 52. Several spray holes 56 are connected to the water distribution channel 54. The spray holes 56 are located on both sides of the connecting rod 52 and above the brush bristles 53 on both sides. One end of the water distribution channel 54 is connected to a water inlet 55, which is connected to an external water source. When brushing, cleaning water can be sprayed through the spray holes 56 to facilitate the removal of salt frost and improve the cleaning effect.

[0031] The roller 6 includes two mounting rods 62, which are slidably connected to two sliding grooves 43 respectively. The other ends of the two mounting rods 62 are fixed with a water-absorbing felt 61. The water-absorbing felt 61 can simultaneously adhere to the brake pad 4 and the wheel hub 3. A handle 63 is provided on the side of the mounting rod 62 away from the brake pad 4. In the working state, pushing the handle 63 can drive the water-absorbing felt 61 to move along the friction layer 42, thereby absorbing the water attached to the friction layer 42 and the wheel hub 3.

[0032] The second mounting rod 62 can rotate in the slide groove 43. When cleaning is not required, the absorbent felt 61 can rotate to the top of the brake pad 4 and be placed in the receiving groove 45, thereby fixing the felt roller 6 on the brake pad 4. This makes it easy to use and avoids affecting the normal operation of the brake device 2.

[0033] Specifically, a brush 5 and a bristle roller 6 are slidably arranged on the side of the brake pad 4. A receiving groove 45 is provided at the upper end of the sliding groove 43, and a slot 44 is connected to the other end of the sliding groove 43. Under normal conditions, the mounting rod 51 of the brush 5 can be inserted into the slot 44, so that the brush 5 is fixed at the bottom of the brake pad 4. The absorbent felt 61 of the bristle roller 6 can be rotated to the top and placed in the receiving groove 45, so that the bristle roller 6 is fixed at the top of the brake pad 4, thereby not affecting the contact between the brake pad 4 and the wheel hub 3, and ensuring normal braking operation.

[0034] When salt frost forms, the mounting rod 51 can be pulled out of the slot by the handle 57, allowing it to slide into the groove 43. At this time, the bristles 53 on both sides can contact the friction layer 42 and the wheel hub 3 respectively. With the water spray from the spray nozzle 56, the working surface of the brake device 2 can be cleaned. After brushing, the brush 5 is returned to its position. The absorbent felt 61 can be rotated between the friction layer 42 and the wheel hub 3 by the handle 63. The sliding roller 6 can absorb the residual moisture on the working surface of the brake device 2, preventing salt frost from forming or rust from developing.
