Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum shavings cleaning technology, and in particular to an aluminum shavings cleaning device for aluminum alloy wheel hubs. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum alloy wheels are automobile wheels made of aluminum as the base material, with appropriate additions of metal elements such as manganese, magnesium, chromium, and titanium. During the processing of aluminum alloy wheels, turning and milling processes are used, which generates a large amount of aluminum shavings. At the same time, due to the special shape of the spokes, there are usually a lot of aluminum shavings remaining on the spokes of the aluminum alloy wheels after processing.

[0003] A search of Chinese patent publication number "CN204523671U" reveals "An aluminum chip cleaning device for motorcycle aluminum alloy wheel hubs". The device uses an air blowing device mounted on a frame to blow away aluminum chips adhering to the surface of the wheel hub. Simultaneously, the rotation of a pneumatic rotating platform mounted on a synchronous air gripper drives the rotation of a nylon positioning gripper, flipping the wheel hub 180 degrees for further chip blowing. This effectively cleans the aluminum chips from the wheel hub, ensuring the processing quality and precision of the wheel hub and improving the production efficiency of the wheel hub.

[0004] Based on the above search and existing technology, it was found that the above patent has certain defects. When the device is in use, the aluminum shavings are cleaned by blowing them away with an air gun. After the air gun blows away the aluminum shavings, they will fly around irregularly in the surrounding environment, and may therefore re-adhere to the cleaned wheel hub surface. The cleaning quality is insufficient and needs to be improved. At the same time, it is not conducive to the subsequent unified treatment of aluminum shavings. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an aluminum shavings cleaning device for aluminum alloy wheel hubs, which solves the technical problem of insufficient cleaning quality of existing devices.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A device for cleaning aluminum shavings from aluminum alloy wheel hubs includes a vacuum cleaner and a bracket. The vacuum cleaner has a pipe connection point on its side wall, and a suction pipe is provided on the side wall of the pipe connection point. The bracket has an annular groove inside. The suction pipe and the bracket are slidably installed. A suction head is provided at the end of the suction pipe.

[0010] A cleaning structure is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the dust extraction pipe;

[0011] The cleaning structure includes a ring sleeve located inside a ring groove. A transmission plate is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the ring sleeve, and an expansion fixing strip is fixedly installed on the side wall of the bracket.

[0012] Preferably, a servo motor is threaded onto the side wall of the amplification fixing strip, the output shaft of the servo motor is fixedly installed with the transmission plate, the bracket is located on the side of the vacuum cleaner, the vacuuming pipe is partially exposed inside the annular groove, and the servo motor can be started by driving the vacuuming pipe and vacuuming head to perform rotary vacuuming through the annular sleeve and the transmission plate.

[0013] Preferably, the inner wall of the annular groove is provided with a sliding groove, and a slider is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the annular sleeve. The slider is located inside the sliding groove and is slidably installed with the sliding groove.

[0014] Preferably, a rotating joint is provided on the side wall of the pipe connection point, the vacuum pipe is rotatably installed with the pipe connection point through the rotating joint, and a handrail is provided on the side wall of the vacuum cleaner away from the pipe connection point.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Firstly, by setting up a cleaning structure, the servo motor output shaft generates a radial force behind the worker, driving the transmission plate to rotate, which in turn drives the dust collection head to rotate circumferentially inside the annular groove. This allows for the even collection of aluminum shavings remaining on the wheel spokes, improving convenience. Furthermore, since dust collection is used, compared to blowing away aluminum shavings, it not only prevents aluminum shavings from re-adhering to the wheel spokes but also facilitates the unified processing of aluminum shavings.

[0017] Secondly, by opening a groove and setting a slider on the surface of the ring, when the output shaft of the servo motor generates a radial force to drive the transmission plate to rotate, the transmission plate will drive the slider to rotate inside the groove, thereby providing a limit for the movement of the transmission plate and the cleaning structure and increasing stability.

[0024] This application provides an aluminum shavings cleaning device for aluminum alloy wheel hubs, effectively solving the technical problem of insufficient cleaning quality in existing devices. By setting up a cleaning structure, the servo motor output shaft generates a radial force behind the operator, driving the transmission plate to rotate. This, in turn, drives the suction head to rotate circumferentially inside the annular groove, thereby evenly sucking up the aluminum shavings remaining on the wheel spokes, improving convenience. At the same time, since it uses suction treatment, compared to blowing away aluminum shavings, it not only prevents aluminum shavings from re-adhering to the wheel spokes, but also facilitates the uniform treatment of aluminum shavings. Furthermore, by opening a sliding groove and setting a slider on the surface of the ring sleeve, when the output shaft of the servo motor generates a radial force to drive the transmission plate to rotate, the transmission plate will drive the slider to rotate inside the sliding groove, thereby providing limit to the movement of the transmission plate and the cleaning structure, increasing stability.

[0025] Example

[0026] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the technical problem of insufficient cleaning quality in existing devices. The overall idea is as follows:

[0027] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an aluminum shavings cleaning device for aluminum alloy wheel hubs, including a vacuum cleaner 11 and a bracket 12. The vacuum cleaner 11 has a pipe connection point 13 on its side wall, and a suction pipe 15 is provided on the side wall of the pipe connection point 13. The bracket 12 has an annular groove 14 inside. The suction pipe 15 and the bracket 12 are slidably installed, and a suction head 16 is provided at the end of the suction pipe 15.

[0028] A cleaning structure is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the suction pipe 15;

[0029] The cleaning structure includes a ring 17 located inside the ring groove 14. A transmission plate 18 is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the ring 17. An expansion fixing strip 19 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the bracket 12. A servo motor 21 is threadedly installed on the side wall of the expansion fixing strip 19. The output shaft of the servo motor 21 is fixedly installed with the transmission plate 18. The bracket 12 is located on the side of the vacuum cleaner 11. The vacuum pipe 15 is partially exposed inside the ring groove 14. The start of the servo motor 21 can drive the vacuum pipe 15 and the vacuum head 16 to perform rotary vacuuming through the ring 17 and the transmission plate 18.

[0030] By setting up a cleaning structure, the output shaft of the servo motor 21 generates a radial force behind the worker, driving the transmission plate 18 to rotate. This, in turn, causes the dust suction head 16 to rotate circumferentially inside the annular groove 14, thereby uniformly suctioning the aluminum shavings remaining on the wheel spokes, improving convenience. At the same time, since dust suction is used, compared to blowing away aluminum shavings, it not only prevents aluminum shavings from re-adhering to the wheel spokes, but also facilitates the unified treatment of aluminum shavings.

[0031] The inner wall of the annular groove 14 is provided with a sliding groove 22, and a slider 23 is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the ring sleeve 17. The slider 23 is located inside the sliding groove 22 and is slidably installed with the sliding groove 22.

[0032] By opening a groove 22 and setting a slider 23 on the surface of the ring 17, when the output shaft of the servo motor 21 generates a radial force to drive the transmission plate 18 to rotate, the transmission plate 18 will drive the slider 23 to rotate inside the groove 22, thereby providing a limit for the movement of the transmission plate 18 and the cleaning structure and increasing stability.

[0033] A rotating joint 24 is provided on the side wall of the pipe connection point 13. The vacuum pipe 15 is rotatably installed with the pipe connection point 13 through the rotating joint 24. A handrail 25 is provided on the side wall of the vacuum cleaner 11 away from the pipe connection point 13.

[0034] By setting a rotating joint 24 and connecting it to the suction pipe 15, the problem of tangling when the cleaning structure drives the suction pipe 15 to rotate can be avoided, thus improving reliability.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] The first step is to use the clamp to fix the aluminum alloy wheel hub vertically, and the spokes of the aluminum alloy wheel hub need to be facing the direction of the vacuum head 16. Then the staff can turn on the vacuum cleaner 11, so that the vacuum cleaner 11 transmits the suction power to the vacuum head 16 through the vacuum pipe 15. At this time, the vacuum head 16 can perform vacuuming work.

[0037] The second step involves the operator turning on the servo motor 21, which generates a radial force on the output shaft of the servo motor 21 to rotate the transmission plate 18. This causes the transmission plate 18 to rotate the ring sleeve 17 inside the ring groove 14. Simultaneously, the suction head 16 rotates circumferentially inside the ring groove 14, thus evenly suctioning the aluminum shavings remaining on the spokes. At the same time, the movement of the ring sleeve 17 will cause the slider 23 to slide inside the slide groove 22.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
