[0018] Side supports 2 are installed on both sides of the lower surface of the support truss 1, providing additional support and stability for the entire device. Side supports 2 not only enhance the structural rigidity of the support truss 1, but also provide an installation platform for other auxiliary components.
[0019] The supporting truss 1 includes a support plate 11, a drive assembly 12, a vertical support hanger 13, and a cleaning assembly 14. The support plate 11 is located on the upper surface of the side support 2. The drive assembly 12 is disposed on the support plate 11. The vertical support hanger 13 is disposed at the movable end of the drive assembly 12. The cleaning assembly 14 is disposed at the connecting end of the vertical support hanger 13.
[0020] The support plate 11 is the foundation of the supporting truss 1, providing a flat and sturdy mounting platform for fixing the drive assembly 12.
[0021] The drive assembly 12 is mounted on the support plate 11 to provide power, and through the transmission mechanism such as the lead screw assembly 124, it causes the vertical support hanger 13 to move along a predetermined path.
[0022] The vertical support bracket 13 is located at the movable end of the drive assembly 12 and is used to support and guide the cleaning assembly 14 to ensure that it can accurately reach the position that needs to be cleaned.
[0023] The cleaning component 14 is directly responsible for the cleaning operation. Through actuators such as the telescopic cylinder 143, it achieves contact and cleaning action with the surface of the central tank, cleaning the area.
[0024] The cleaning assembly 14 mainly consists of a horizontal support plate 141, a mounting vertical plate 142, a telescopic cylinder 143, and a scraping assembly 144. The horizontal support plate 141 is connected to the end of the vertical support bracket 13. The mounting vertical plate 142 is located at the middle of the lower surface of the horizontal support plate 141. The telescopic cylinder 143 is installed on both sides of the mounting vertical plate 142. The end of the telescopic cylinder 143 is provided with a scraping assembly 144.
[0025] The cross brace 141 serves as the base for the cleaning assembly 14, providing a stable mounting platform. The cross brace 141 is typically designed with multiple mounting holes and reinforcing ribs to ensure its structural strength and stability.
[0026] Mounting plate 142 provides a mounting point for telescopic cylinder 143, ensuring the stability and accuracy of telescopic cylinder 143. Mounting plate 142 is set perpendicular to cross brace plate 141 to provide sufficient support.
[0027] The telescopic cylinder 143 controls the contact between the scraping assembly 144 and the surface of the central groove through its telescopic movement. By using compressed air to drive the piston rod to telescopically move the scraping assembly 144 left and right, the distance between the scraping assembly 144 and the surface of the central groove can be precisely adjusted to ensure cleaning effectiveness.
[0028] The scraping assembly 144 directly contacts the surface of the central tank to perform cleaning operations. The scraping assembly 144 selects the appropriate tool according to different cleaning needs. It can effectively remove dirt, dust, and other deposits from the surface of the central tank.
[0029] Furthermore, the side support 2 includes a vertical support frame 21, an upper support plate 22, and a horizontal movement electric cylinder 23. The vertical support frame 21 is provided at both ends of the lower surface of the upper support plate 22, and the horizontal movement electric cylinder 23 is provided on the upper surface of the upper support plate 22.

An adjusting cylinder 132 is provided on one side of the vertical frame plate 131, and the extension end of the adjusting cylinder 132 is connected to the horizontal support connecting frame 134. The horizontal support connecting frame 134 is disposed through the guide groove of the vertical frame plate 131, and the horizontal support connecting frame 134 is connected to the linear slide rail 133 provided on both sides of the vertical frame plate 131.
[0037] The vertical support plate 131 is the main body of the vertical support hanger 13, providing mounting positions for components and ensuring the stability and rigidity of the vertical support hanger 13. The vertical support plate 131 is designed with guide grooves for the movement of the cross brace connecting frame 134; linear slide rails 133 are also installed on both sides of the vertical support plate 131 to ensure the smooth movement of the cross brace connecting frame 134.
[0038] The adjusting cylinder 132 controls the position of the cross brace connecting frame 134 through its telescopic movement, adapting to different types of central troughs. The adjusting cylinder 132 enables the vertical movement of the cross brace connecting frame 134. Precise adjustment of the position of the cross brace connecting frame 134 ensures optimal contact between the cleaning assembly 14 and the surface of the central trough.
[0039] The linear guide rail 133 ensures smooth horizontal movement of the cross brace connecting frame 134. The linear guide rail 133 typically includes a guide rail and a slider, which connects to the cross brace connecting frame 134 to ensure its stability and accuracy during movement.
[0040] The cross brace connecting frame 134 connects to the cleaning assembly 14, and its position can be adjusted as needed to achieve the best cleaning effect. The cross brace connecting frame 134 achieves precise positional movement by adjusting the cylinder 132.

The motor mounting base 122 is perpendicular to the base support plate 121 and is connected to the base support plate 121 by bolts or other fasteners, ensuring that the drive motor 123 is securely installed.
[0043] The drive motor 123 is mounted on the motor mounting base 122; the vertical support hanger 13 is moved by rotating the drive screw assembly 124. The drive motor 123 is a high-precision servo motor or stepper motor, which can provide stable speed and torque to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the movement.
[0044] The lead screw assembly 124 is disposed between the base support plates 121 and connected to the output end of the drive motor 123, converting the rotational motion of the drive motor 123 into linear motion, and precisely controlling the movement of the vertical support hanger 13. The lead screw is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 123 through a coupling, and the nut is connected to the vertical support hanger 13 to ensure the smooth movement of the vertical support hanger 13.
[0045] In use: Adjust the stroke of the horizontal moving electric cylinder 23 according to the specific size of the central groove to be cleaned, so that the cleaning component 14 can cover the entire cleaning area. At the same time, the adjusting cylinder 132 on the vertical support bracket 13 is activated to adjust the horizontal support connecting frame 134 to the appropriate position. At this time, the telescopic cylinder 143 is activated to push the scraping assembly 144 of the cleaning component 14 to fit tightly against the surface of the central groove. After the above adjustments are completed, start the drive motor 123 of the drive component 12, and push the vertical support bracket 13 to move through the lead screw assembly 124 to start the cleaning operation, ensuring that the cleaning component 14 can fully cover the surface of the central groove.
