Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of material bucket cleaning technology. Specifically, this utility model relates to a material bucket cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Before being used in the plant, all coal materials need to be sampled and tested for their corresponding bulk density. Currently, sampling is generally done manually using 10L volumetric containers. Due to the high moisture content and sticky nature of coal, containers that have held raw coal often require manual cleaning to ensure thorough cleaning. Conventional container cleaning methods are either manual, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, making unmanned and automated processes difficult, or involve liquid impact on the container, causing liquid and material splashing, resulting in poor equipment hygiene, the risk of internal water accumulation, and requiring further equipment cleaning. For materials like coal, without using high-pressure water or airflow for cleaning, the containers are difficult to clean thoroughly, thus affecting the results of subsequent tests.
[0003] Chinese Patent (Publication No.: 212419007U) discloses a cleaning device for chemical raw material drums, relating to the technical field of raw material drum cleaning devices. It includes a liquid pump, with a cleaning liquid pipe fixedly connected to the outlet of the liquid pump. A cleaning pipe is fixedly connected to the end of the cleaning liquid pipe away from the liquid pump, and an air pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning pipe. An air pump is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air pipe. However, this raw material drum cleaning device uses liquid to impact the drum, causing liquid and material to splash, resulting in poor equipment hygiene, requiring a large amount of water resources, wasting water, and posing a risk of internal water accumulation.

[0020] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in order to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, and to facilitate its implementation.
[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a material barrel cleaning device includes a material barrel 1 and a first connecting plate 2. A cleaning mechanism 3 is provided on the first connecting plate 2, and the material barrel 1 is placed on the cleaning mechanism 3. A first lifting unit 4 is connected to the first connecting plate 2. After the material barrel 1 is used, there will be residual material to be cleaned. The material barrel 1 is gripped by an industrial robotic arm and placed on the cleaning mechanism 3, where it is cleaned for future use. The first lifting unit 4 lifts the cleaning tank 301, which can cover the material barrel 1 for thorough cleaning.
[0022] The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a cleaning tank 301, which is mounted on the first connecting plate 2. A second lifting unit 31 is connected inside the cleaning tank 301. The second lifting unit 31 is connected to a first fixing pipe 302. One end of the first fixing pipe 302 is connected to a rotating cleaning ball 303. A first threaded hole 304 for connecting to a water pipe is opened on the first fixing pipe 302. The first connecting plate 2 is used to fix the cleaning tank 301. The second lifting unit 31 can drive the lifting of the first fixed pipe 302. The first fixed pipe 302 is a T-shaped pipe. One end of the first fixed pipe 302 is sealed for connection with the second lifting unit 31. The first threaded hole 304 on the first fixed pipe 302 is used for connection with the water pipe. The other end of the first fixed pipe 302 is connected to the rotating cleaning ball 303. Water in the water pipe enters the first fixed pipe 302 through the first threaded hole 304 and is finally sprayed out by the rotating cleaning ball 303. When the water flows through the rotating cleaning ball 303, it will drive the rotating cleaning ball 303 to rotate. The water flow is sprayed out by the rotating cleaning ball 303 and flows out along the cleaning tank 301. The cleaning tank 301 is connected to the discharge funnel, which collects all the cleaned material and discharges it out of the equipment. It can achieve all-round cleaning of the material tank 1.
[0023] The second lifting unit 31 includes a second connecting plate 311 connected inside the cleaning tank 301. A third connecting plate 312 is connected to the second connecting plate 311, and a first cylinder 313 is connected to the third connecting plate 312. A first push rod 314 is connected to the first cylinder 313 and is connected to a first fixed tube 302. The second connecting plate 311 is fixedly connected inside the cleaning tank 301. One end of the third connecting plate 312 is fixedly connected to the second connecting plate 311, and the other end is fixedly connected to the first cylinder 313, used to fix the first cylinder 313. The first cylinder 313 pushes the first push rod 314, which in turn moves the first fixed tube 302 and the rotating cleaning ball 303, enabling cleaning at different heights of the material tank 1.
[0024] The first lifting unit 4 includes a second cylinder 401, which is connected to a second push rod 402. The second push rod 402 is connected to a fixing component 41, which is connected to a first connecting plate 2. When the industrial robotic arm clamps and fixes the material bucket 1, the second cylinder 401 can push the second push rod 402. The second push rod 402, through the fixing component 41, drives the first connecting plate 2 and the cleaning bucket 301 to move upward and cover the material bucket 1.
[0025] The fixing component 41 includes a first circular plate 411, which is fixedly connected to a first connecting plate 2. A fourth connecting plate 412 is connected to the first circular plate 411 and is connected to a second push rod 402. The first circular plate 411 can provide a wider force-bearing area. The second push rod 402 pushes the fourth connecting plate 412, which in turn pushes the first circular plate 411. The first circular plate 411 then moves the first connecting plate 2 and the washing tank 301 to cover the material tank 1.
[0026] The second cylinder 401 is connected to a fixing plate 5 at one end, and the fixing plate 5 is fitted onto the cleaning tub 301. The fixing plate 5 can be used to fix the second cylinder 401, and by placing the fixing plate 5 on the worktable, the second cylinder 401 is located inside the worktable, which can make it more stable during use.
[0027] A first fixing ring 101 and a second fixing ring 102 are fitted onto the material barrel 1. A gap is left between the first fixing ring 101 and the second fixing ring 102. The position between the first fixing ring 101 and the second fixing ring 102 when the industrial robotic arm clamps the material barrel 1 can make the industrial robotic arm clamp the material barrel 1 more stably.
[0028] At least two first lifting units 4 are provided. Multiple first lifting units 4 are provided and symmetrically arranged. By providing multiple first lifting units 4, the first connecting plate 2 and the washing tank 301 can be moved more quickly, allowing the washing tank 301 to cover the material tank 1. At the same time, the movement of the first connecting plate 2 and the washing tank 301 is more stable.
[0029] The third connecting plate 312 has a weight-reducing hole 6. The weight-reducing hole 6 can reduce the weight of the third connecting plate 312 itself, and at the same time save materials and reduce costs.
[0030] The role and effect of the embodiments
[0031] In use, the position of the industrial robotic arm between the first fixing ring 101 and the second fixing ring 102 ensures a more stable grip on the material bucket 1. The second cylinder 401 pushes the second push rod 402, which, through the fixing assembly 41, moves the first connecting plate 2 and the cleaning bucket 301 upwards to cover the material bucket 1. The first cylinder 313 pushes the first push rod 314, which in turn moves the first fixing tube 302 and the rotating cleaning ball 303, enabling cleaning at different heights of the material bucket 1.
[0032] The present invention has been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention; or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
