Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of titanium rod filter element cleaning equipment, specifically relating to an ultrasonic titanium rod cleaner. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of graphite anode materials, because the product is a high-performance powder at the micron level, it is very easy to cause the titanium rod filter element to become clogged. As a single carbon crystal, it has good adsorption properties, and it is extremely difficult to completely clean the filter element with existing technology. In addition, the cylindrical design of the titanium rod requires a special structural container to effectively clean the inside of the filter element.

[0003] The core mechanism of ultrasonic cleaning lies in its cavitation effect. When ultrasound propagates in a liquid, it generates sound pressure waves that alternate between compression and rarefaction, causing tiny vacuum bubbles to form inside the liquid. These bubbles grow rapidly in localized low-pressure areas; during the positive-pressure phase, the bubbles collapse rapidly due to the pressure of the surrounding liquid. The instantaneous collapse of the bubbles generates extremely high temperatures and pressures; this phenomenon is called "cavitation." The strong localized shock waves generated by the cavitation effect can break down and remove dirt, grease, and other deposits from the surface of an object, achieving the purpose of cleaning.

[0004] The document with authorization announcement number CN214718922U discloses an ultrasonic filter element titanium rod cleaning machine, including a frame, a cleaning tank, an ultrasonic generator, and an ultrasonic transducer; two titanium rod placement racks are arranged side by side in the cleaning tank; a drain placement rack is slidably arranged on the top of the cleaning tank; each titanium rod placement rack includes a drive shaft, a driven shaft, and planetary bearings; the drive shaft and the driven shaft are mounted on one side wall of the cleaning tank via planetary bearings; the planetary bearings of the driven shaft are distributed around the drive shaft; the drive shaft is driven to rotate by a drive motor; and the driven shaft is threadedly connected to the titanium rods.

[0005] However, the device still has the following problems: the use of a planetary gear structure to drive the titanium rod holder to rotate is costly, occupies a large space, and has many connection nodes, which makes it easy for liquid to leak and contaminate the transmission structure, resulting in increased cleaning and maintenance costs.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0038] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0039] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "set" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0040] This embodiment provides an ultrasonic titanium rod cleaner, as shown in the attached image. Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 4 As shown, it includes a bracket 1 and a cleaning tank 2 mounted on the bracket 1.

[0041] In this embodiment, the cleaning tank 2 includes a tank body 21 with an internal cavity, a connection port 22 disposed on the side wall of the tank body 21, and an ultrasonic transducer 23 connected to the connection port 22. The tank body 21 is made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and mechanical strength, ensuring that the internal cleaning fluid, such as acetone, will not corrode the tank body. The connection port 22 is used to connect the ultrasonic transducer 23 to fix it onto the cleaning tank 2. Multiple connection ports 22 are distributed at intervals along the height of the tank body 21, or they can be distributed at intervals circumferentially at the same height. Multiple ultrasonic transducers 23 work together to clean collaboratively, which helps to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning fluid on the titanium rod a and also helps to improve the uniformity of cleaning. The connection port 22 and the ultrasonic transducer 23 are existing structures, so they will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0042] It is understandable that, in order to reduce the noise and vibration of the cleaning tank 2, sound insulation cotton, shock-absorbing pads, etc. can be installed on the side wall of the tank 21. These structures are existing structures, so they will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0043] Furthermore, a liquid level sensor can be installed inside the tank 21 to monitor the liquid level of the cleaning fluid. The liquid level sensor is protected by a shell made of stainless steel or corrosion-resistant material. Liquid level sensors are common structures in the art, so they will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0044] In this embodiment, the support 1 includes a frame 11, and a plurality of reinforcing members 12 disposed on the frame 11 and located on the outer periphery of the tank 21 for fixing the tank 21. Preferably, the frame 11 and the reinforcing members 12 are made of stainless steel. The frame 11 is placed vertically along the cleaning tank 2, and the reinforcing members 12 are all located at the upper end of the cleaning tank 2, numbering 2 to 5, and distributed circumferentially at certain intervals to reinforce the cleaning tank 2. More preferably, the reinforcing members 12 can also be disposed in the middle and lower parts of the cleaning tank 2 to further enhance the fixing effect on the cleaning tank 2.

[0045] Specifically, the reinforcement component 12 includes a fixed horizontal plate 121, a vertical clamping plate 122 disposed on the side end of the fixed horizontal plate 121 and connected to the side wall of the tank body 21, a fixing hole 123 disposed on the fixed horizontal plate 121, a connecting hole 124 disposed on the frame 11, a connecting bolt 125 for connecting the fixing hole 123 and the connecting hole 124, a buffer pad 126 disposed between the fixed horizontal plate 121 and the frame 11, and a buffer block 127 disposed on the side of the vertical clamping plate 122 near the tank body 21. The fixed horizontal plate 121 and the vertical clamping plate 122 are integrally formed, and there are multiple fixing holes 123 or connecting holes 124 to facilitate the adjustment of the connection position between the reinforcement 12 and the frame 11. The vertical clamping plate 122 abuts against the side wall of the tank 21. The buffer block 127 can be made of rubber to enhance the friction between the vertical clamping plate 122 and the side wall of the tank 21 and improve the reinforcement effect on the tank 21. The buffer pad 126 can also be made of rubber and is mainly used to reduce the wear caused by vibration between the fixed horizontal plate 121 and the frame 11.

[0046] As a preferred embodiment, the upper end of the tank body 21 is open, and the cleaning tank 2 further includes a sealing cover 24 disposed on the upper end of the tank body 21, an upper fixing plate 25 rotatably connected to the sealing cover 24 for fixing the titanium rod a, a lower fixing plate 26 rotatably connected to the inner bottom surface of the tank body 21, and a driving structure 27 disposed on the lower end of the tank body 21 for driving the lower fixing plate 26 to rotate. The sealing cover 24 is used to seal the tank 21 to prevent the cleaning liquid from evaporating into the external environment during the cleaning process. The upper fixed plate 25 and the lower fixed plate 26 are of the same specifications, and the space between them is used to place titanium rods a. The titanium rods a are placed vertically and distributed circumferentially. The number of titanium rods a can be 2 to 6, which increases the number of titanium rods a that can be cleaned in a single cleaning cycle by the cleaning tank 2. The driving structure 27 is used to drive the lower fixed plate 26 to rotate. The lower fixed plate 26 transmits the rotation to the upper fixed plate 25 through the titanium rods a. The upper fixed plate 25 is rotatably connected to the sealing cover 24. Therefore, after the titanium rods a are placed between the two plates, the upper fixed plate 25 and the lower fixed plate 26 are connected to form a synchronously rotating whole, which drives the titanium rods a to rotate in the cleaning tank 2, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the titanium rods a.

[0047] Preferably, the sealing cover 24 includes a main body 241, an extended ring plate 242 disposed on the outer periphery of the main body 241, and an internal thread 243 disposed on the inner sidewall of the extended ring plate 242; the upper outer wall of the tank body 21 is provided with an external thread matching the internal thread 243. It is worth noting that when the sealing cover 24 is rotated to complete the connection with the tank body 21, since the upper fixed plate 25 is rotatably connected to the sealing cover 24, the rotation of the upper fixed plate 25 will not cause the titanium rod a to have an unfavorable tendency to twist.

[0048] Preferably, the upper fixing plate 25 includes an upper plate body 251, a connecting shaft 252 disposed at the center of the upper end of the upper plate body 251, a groove 253 disposed on the lower surface of the sealing cover 24 and rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 252, a plurality of fixing blocks 254 distributed in a ring on the lower surface of the upper plate body 251, and a fixing groove 255 disposed on the fixing block 254 and connected to the interface of the titanium rod a; a bearing 256 is provided at the connection between the connecting shaft 252 and the groove 253. It can be understood that the titanium rod a itself has an interface, generally a threaded interface, and the fixing groove 255 is a corresponding internal thread groove that matches the threaded interface, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the titanium rod a.

[0049] Preferably, the lower fixed plate 26 includes a lower plate body 261, a limiting ring 262 disposed on the outer periphery of the lower plate body 261, a rotating shaft 263 disposed at the lower center of the lower plate body 261 and extending to the outside of the tank body 21 for connection with the drive structure 27, and ball bearings 264 disposed on the side wall of the limiting ring 262. The limiting ring 262 is located at the outer end of the titanium rod a, preferably abutting against the side end of the titanium rod a, thereby supporting the titanium rod a. A sealing connector is provided at the connection between the rotating shaft 263 and the tank body 21 to prevent leakage. The sealing connector can directly adopt an existing structure, so it will not be described in detail in this embodiment. The ball bearings 264 are used to reduce wear between the limiting ring 262 and the titanium rod a.

[0050] Preferably, the drive structure 27 includes a drive motor 271 and a coupling 272 disposed on the output end of the drive motor 271 and connected to the rotating shaft 263.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the lower fixed plate 26 further includes a fixing post 265 disposed at the center of the upper surface of the lower plate body 261, and a slot 266 disposed on the fixing post 265; a plug rod 257 matching the slot is disposed at the center of the lower surface of the upper plate body. This arrangement enhances the connection between the upper fixed plate 25 and the lower fixed plate 26, reducing the problem of uneven force distribution at the upper and lower ends of the titanium rod a at the start or end of rotation.

[0052] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
