Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heating technology, and more specifically, to a combined heating module and a cleaning system. Background Technology
[0002] When cleaning workpieces with cleaning fluid, existing technologies typically involve immersing the workpiece in a cleaning tank, submerging it in the cleaning fluid. To improve cleaning efficiency, a heater is used to heat the cleaning fluid, increasing the reaction rate between the cleaning fluid and the dirt on the workpiece surface. However, due to limitations in manufacturing technology, the size of existing heaters cannot be designed to be large. When cleaning large workpieces—that is, when the workpiece size is larger than the largest heater model—the heater cannot completely cover the corresponding area of the workpiece surface. This results in a large temperature difference between the edge and center of the workpiece, uneven heating of the workpiece and the cleaning fluid, and poor cleaning effect.
[0003] The inventors discovered during their research that the existing heater-workpiece mating structure has at least the following drawbacks:
[0004] The size of the heater cannot meet the needs of workpieces of different sizes, resulting in low cleaning efficiency and poor cleaning effect. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0029] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0033] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0034] In existing technologies, the size of the heater is limited. In some scenarios, the size of the heater is smaller than the size of the workpiece. When the heater heats the workpiece, the surface of the workpiece to be cleaned is heated unevenly, resulting in poor cleaning effect and reduced cleaning efficiency.
[0035] In view of this, the designers have provided a modular heating module that can adaptably adjust the number of heating modules according to the size of the workpiece. By cooperating with multiple heating modules, the heating surface can be increased, thereby completely covering the surface of the workpiece to be cleaned. The workpiece is heated evenly, resulting in good cleaning effect and high cleaning efficiency.
[0036] Please refer to Figures 1-4This embodiment provides a combined heating module, including a support mechanism 100 and multiple heating modules 200, wherein:
[0037] The support mechanism 100 includes a suspension frame 110 and a fixing frame 120, with the suspension frame 110 connected to the fixing frame 120; each heating module 200 includes a housing 210, a heating plate assembly 220, and a thermometer 230, with the heating plate assembly 220 and the thermometer 230 fixed to the housing 210; the housing 210 of each heating module 200 is detachably mounted to the fixing frame 120, and the housings 210 of adjacent heating modules 200 are connected together.
[0038] As described above, the working principle of the combined heating module provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0039] Depending on the size of the workpiece, multiple heating modules 200 are configured below the fixing frame 120 as needed, so that the overall structure formed by the splicing of multiple heating modules 200 can cover the surface of the workpiece to be cleaned. In this way, when dealing with workpieces of different sizes, the number and arrangement of heating modules can be selected as needed, so that the corresponding number of heating modules 200 spliced together can completely cover the surface of the workpiece to be cleaned, ensuring uniform heating of the surface of the workpiece to be cleaned, improving the cleaning effect, and improving cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, the outer shell 210 of the heating module is detachably connected to the fixing frame 120, which facilitates the combined installation of multiple heating modules.
[0040] The following embodiments illustrate the details of the combined heating module of this application by way of example.
[0041] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, optionally, the combined heating module includes a support mechanism 100, multiple heating modules 200, a cover plate 300, and a moving platform (not shown). The multiple heating modules 200 are detachably mounted on the support mechanism 100. The cover plate 300 is mounted on the top of the support mechanism 100 to protect the top of the support mechanism 100 and improve its aesthetics. The moving platform is connected to the support mechanism 100 and can drive the support mechanism 100 and the heating modules 200 to reciprocate in a set direction, thereby adjusting the position of the heating modules 200 relative to the workpiece and improving flexibility.
[0042] In this embodiment, optionally, the support mechanism 100 includes a suspension frame 110 and a fixed frame 120. The suspension frame 110 is connected to the fixed frame 120 and is also connected to the mobile platform. The heating module 200 is detachably installed below the fixed frame 120.
[0043] Please refer to Figures 1-2Optionally, the mounting bracket 120 includes an outer frame 121 and multiple skeletons 122, all located within the area enclosed by the outer frame 121. Each skeleton 122 can be fixedly connected to the outer frame 121. The number of skeletons 122 can be selected as needed, and some of the skeletons 122 can be arranged crosswise to improve the stability and reliability of the structure. It should be understood that the skeletons 122 and the outer frame 121 can be connected by welding or by structural components such as bolts. A cover plate 300 is located above the multiple skeletons 122. The cover plate 300 can be connected to the skeletons 122 and the outer frame 121, concealing the skeletons 122. The wiring harness can be hidden within the cover plate 300, improving the aesthetics.
[0044] In addition, the number of cover plates 300 can be the same as the number of heating modules 200. Each heating module 200 can be independently equipped with a cover plate 300, which facilitates assembly and saves costs.
[0045] Optionally, the suspension bracket 110 includes multiple suspension components, all of which are fixed to the fixing frame 120 and distributed around the fixing frame 120. For example, the suspension components can be fixed to the outside of the outer frame 121 of the fixing frame 120 by means of structural components such as bolts, which results in a simple connection structure and convenient operation.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 Specifically, the suspension component includes a first fixing strip 111 and a second fixing strip 112. Both the first fixing strip 111 and the second fixing strip 112 can be rectangular strips. One end of the first fixing strip 111 is fixed to one end of the second fixing strip 112, and the two are set at a 90° angle. Simultaneously, the side of the second fixing strip 112 away from the first fixing strip 111 has a folded edge 113 that bends towards the first fixing strip 111. The design of the folded edge 113 effectively increases the structural strength of the second fixing strip 112. It should be understood that the suspension component can be set as a one-piece structure, that is, the suspension component is formed by bending a metal strip, and after bending, the first fixing strip 111, the second fixing strip 112, and the folded edge 113 are connected in sequence. Obviously, in other embodiments, the angle between the first fixing strip 111 and the second fixing strip 112 is not limited to 90°.
[0047] Furthermore, both the first fixing strip 111 and the second fixing strip 112 are provided with fixing holes 114 for bolts to pass through. During assembly, the first fixing strip 111 is fixed to the outer frame 121 with bolts. The second fixing strip 112 can be fixed to the bottom of the moving platform with bolts.
[0048] In this embodiment, the moving platform can optionally be configured as a linear moving platform, a two-dimensional moving platform, or a three-dimensional moving platform. A linear moving platform can only drive the support mechanism 100 and the heating module to move in a single direction. A two-dimensional moving platform can drive the support mechanism 100 and the heating module to move in two mutually perpendicular directions. A three-dimensional moving platform can drive the support mechanism 100 and the heating module to move in three mutually perpendicular directions. The moving platform can be controlled by at least one stepper motor.
[0049] To facilitate the installation of the support mechanism 100, a mounting base can be set at the mobile end of the mobile platform, and the second fixing strip 112 can be fixed on the mounting base.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, optionally, each heating module 200 includes a housing 210, a heating plate assembly 220, and a thermometer 230. Both the heating plate assembly 220 and the thermometer 230 are fixed to the housing 210. The thermometer 230 can be an infrared thermometer, capable of real-time monitoring of the workpiece temperature. The housing 210 of each heating module 200 can be detachably mounted to the frame 122 using bolts or other structural components, with adjacent heating module housings 210 mating together. It should be understood that to avoid interference, a 3-5mm installation gap can be provided between adjacent housings 210 without affecting the uniformity of heating.
[0051] It should be understood that the heating plate assembly 220 may include stacked heat insulation plates and heating plates, with the heating plates located on the side closer to the workpiece.
[0052] The combined heating module provided in this embodiment can select the corresponding number of heating modules 200 as needed according to the size of the workpiece, and the multiple heating modules 200 are positioned and installed by the support mechanism 100. After the multiple heating modules 200 are combined, the heating area is increased and the coverage area is wide, which can completely cover the surface of the workpiece to be cleaned, improve the heating uniformity, and improve the cleaning effect.
[0053] This embodiment also provides a cleaning system, which includes a rotating platform, a drive mechanism, and a combined heating module. The drive mechanism can be positioned on the ground, and the rotating platform is mounted on the rotating end of the drive mechanism, enabling the drive mechanism to rotate the rotating platform in a horizontal plane. The upper part of the rotating platform can hold the workpiece to be cleaned. The combined heating module is located above the workpiece.
[0054] When cleaning a workpiece is required, the cleaning solution is poured onto its upper surface. A drive mechanism rotates the rotating platform, causing the workpiece to rotate relative to the combined heating module, further improving the uniformity of heating between the workpiece and the cleaning solution. Because the cleaning solution is only applied to the surface of the workpiece, the amount used is reduced, saving resources and lowering cleaning costs.
[0055] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
