Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal workpiece surface treatment technology, specifically a workpiece cleaning device for powder zinc diffusion process. Background Technology

[0002] Powder zinc diffusion is a metal surface coating process that uses thermal diffusion to create a zinc-iron alloy layer on the surface of steel. Powder zinc diffusion offers advantages such as high hardness, material savings, simple operation, and no hydrogen embrittlement. It includes two methods: embedding and mechanical energy-assisted diffusion. The embedding method involves directly burying the workpiece in a zinc diffusion agent and heating it, allowing zinc atoms in the agent to penetrate the metal surface and form a protective zinc film. The mechanical energy-assisted diffusion method, building upon the embedding method, places the workpiece and zinc diffusion agent together in a rotating container. During heating, the container rotates, and the mechanical energy causes the zinc diffusion agent to continuously impact the heated workpiece surface, increasing diffusion efficiency and accelerating zinc layer formation. This is currently the mainstream powder zinc diffusion process.

[0003] However, in the powder zinc diffusion process, in order to ensure that the workpiece surface can achieve the best adhesion and effect during the zinc diffusion process, it is necessary to clean the metal workpiece first. Therefore, a workpiece cleaning device for the powder zinc diffusion process will be used. However, in the currently used traditional cleaning equipment, the workpiece is usually placed directly under the water source for rinsing. However, when the workpiece is attached with sticky dust or strong contaminants during production or transportation, it is difficult to clean the surface of the workpiece by rinsing alone, which will reduce the effect of subsequent powder zinc diffusion. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a workpiece cleaning device for powder zinc diffusion processes, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A workpiece cleaning device for powder zinc diffusion process includes a support box, a mounting frame on top of the support box, fixing frames on both sides of the mounting frame, a storage box at the bottom of the fixing frames, a water injection pipe connected to one side of the storage box, multiple nozzles connected to the bottom of the storage box, adjusting frames on both sides of the support box, an adjusting motor on one side of the adjusting frame, a first bidirectional lead screw fixed to the output end of the adjusting motor, two moving blocks threaded to the outer wall of the first bidirectional lead screw, a support plate fixed to the top of the moving blocks, a cleaning brush cylinder between the support plates, a servo motor fixed to one side of one support plate, and the output end of the servo motor fixedly connected to one end of the cleaning brush cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, a clamping motor is fixed inside the mounting frame, two sliding blocks are slidably installed inside the mounting frame, a second bidirectional lead screw is fixed to the output end of the clamping motor, the outer wall of the second bidirectional lead screw is threadedly connected to the inside of the sliding block, two connecting rods are fixed to the bottom of the sliding block, and a clamping plate is fixed to the bottom end of the connecting rod.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the support box has two limiting grooves, and a limiting block is slidably installed inside the limiting groove. The top of the limiting block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate.

[0009] Preferably, an anti-slip pad is fixed to one side of the clamping plate, and the anti-slip pad is made of rubber.

[0010] Preferably, a support plate is fixed on each of the two sides of the inner wall of the support box, a filter plate is provided inside the support box, and a plurality of insertion rods are fixed at the bottom of the filter plate, the insertion rods penetrating through the top of the support plate.

[0011] Preferably, the shape of the support plate and the shape of the connecting rod are both Z-shaped.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. Rinsing and wiping can make the workpiece cleaner and more tidy, effectively removing dust and contaminants from the workpiece surface. This helps to improve the effect of subsequent powder zinc diffusion, thereby improving the product quality of the workpiece.

[0014] 2. The output of the clamping motor rotates, which drives the second bidirectional lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the sliding block to move. When the sliding block moves closer to each other, it drives the clamping plate to move closer to each other, thus stably clamping and fixing the workpiece, avoiding shaking and falling during cleaning, which would result in poor cleaning effect; it can also clamp and fix various different sizes, improving practicality.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a workpiece cleaning device for powder zinc diffusion process, including a support box 1, an mounting frame 2 above the support box 1, fixing frames 3 on both sides of the mounting frame 2, a storage box 4 at the bottom of the fixing frame 3, a water injection pipe connected to one side of the storage box 4, multiple nozzles 5 connected to the bottom of the storage box 4, an adjustment frame 6 on both sides of the support box 1, an adjustment motor 7 on one side of the adjustment frame 6, a first bidirectional lead screw 8 at the output end of the adjustment motor 7, two moving blocks 9 threadedly connected to the outer wall of the first bidirectional lead screw 8, a support plate 10 fixed to the top of the moving blocks 9, a cleaning brush cylinder 11 between the support plates 10, the cleaning brush cylinder 11 being flexible, a servo motor 12 fixed to one side of one support plate 10, and the output end of the servo motor 12 being fixedly connected to one end of the cleaning brush cylinder 11;

[0023] The mounting bracket 2 has a clamping motor 13 fixed inside, and two sliding blocks 14 are slidably installed inside the mounting bracket 2. The output end of the clamping motor 13 is fixed with a second bidirectional lead screw 15. The outer wall of the second bidirectional lead screw 15 is threadedly connected to the inside of the sliding block 14. Two connecting rods 16 are fixed at the bottom of the sliding block 14, and a clamping plate 17 is fixed at the bottom end of the connecting rod 16.

[0024] The top of the support box 1 has two limiting grooves 18, and a limiting block 19 is slidably installed inside the limiting groove 18. The top of the limiting block 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate 10.

[0025] In this invention, the cleaning water in the storage tank 4 is sprayed onto the workpiece through the nozzle 5. Then, the output of the adjusting motor 7 drives the first bidirectional lead screw 8 to rotate, which in turn causes the two moving blocks 9 to move. When the moving blocks 9 approach each other, the support plates 10 approach each other, which in turn causes the two cleaning brush cylinders 11 to approach each other, thus making contact with the surface of the workpiece. After contact, the output of the servo motor 12 drives the cleaning brush cylinders 11 to rotate, thereby wiping and cleaning the surface of the workpiece. The combination of rinsing and wiping makes the workpiece cleaner and more tidy, effectively removing dust and contaminants from the surface of the workpiece. This helps to improve the effect in the subsequent powder zinc diffusion process, thereby improving the product quality of the workpiece.

[0026] The output of the clamping motor 13 rotates, which drives the second bidirectional lead screw 15 to rotate, thereby driving the sliding block 14 to move. When the sliding blocks 14 move closer to each other, the clamping plates 17 move closer to each other, thereby clamping and fixing the workpiece.

[0027] By sliding the limiting block 19 in the limiting groove 18, the stability of the support plate 10 during movement can be increased and its shaking reduced, thereby enabling the cleaning brush cylinder 11 to contact the workpiece more accurately, thus improving the cleaning effect and avoiding omissions.

[0028] More specifically, an anti-slip pad 20 is fixed to one side of the clamping plate 17, and the anti-slip pad 20 is made of rubber; a support plate 21 is fixed to both sides of the inner wall of the support box 1, a filter plate 22 is provided inside the support box 1, and multiple insertion rods 23 are fixed to the bottom of the filter plate 22, and the insertion rods 23 penetrate through the top of the support plate 21; the shape of the support plate 10 and the shape of the connecting rod 16 are both Z-shaped.

[0029] In this invention, the anti-slip pad 20 increases friction, reducing the possibility of falling during clamping and fixing; the filter plate 22 filters out impurities, facilitating subsequent water recycling and saving resources; at the same time, by removing the insertion rod 23 from the support plate 21, the filter plate 22 can be easily disassembled and removed, thus facilitating thorough cleaning and preventing any impact on subsequent filtration; the specific shape prevents obstruction during movement, allowing for smoother movement and improving efficiency.

[0030] Working principle: First, the output of the clamping motor 13 rotates, driving the second bidirectional lead screw 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the sliding block 14 to move. When the sliding blocks 14 approach each other, the clamping plates 17 also approach each other, thus clamping and fixing the workpiece. Then, the cleaning water in the storage tank 4 is sprayed onto the workpiece through the nozzle 5. Next, the output of the adjusting motor 7 rotates, driving the first bidirectional lead screw 8 to rotate, which in turn moves the two moving blocks 9. When the moving blocks 9 approach each other, the support plates 10 approach each other, which in turn moves the two cleaning brush cylinders 11 closer together, thus making contact with the surface of the workpiece. After contact, the output of the servo motor 12 rotates, driving the cleaning brush cylinders 11 to rotate, thus wiping and cleaning the surface of the workpiece. The combination of rinsing and wiping makes the workpiece cleaner and more tidy, effectively removing dust and contaminants from the surface of the workpiece, thus helping to improve the effect of subsequent powder zinc diffusion and improving the product quality of the workpiece.
