Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-temperature steam cleaning technology, and more specifically, to a high-temperature steam cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] In high-temperature steam cleaning applications, precise flow control can significantly improve cleaning efficiency and ensure the safety of the cleaning process. In some special industry applications, such as biopharmaceuticals and food processing, steam cleaning not only needs to remove contaminants efficiently, but also needs to ensure that it does not cause any side effects on sensitive equipment and materials. Taking the food processing industry as an example, when cleaning production line equipment, excessive steam flow may cause the equipment surface to overheat or become damp, thereby affecting the service life or hygiene and safety of the equipment. Therefore, equipment that can precisely adjust the steam flow according to different working conditions has become essential.

[0003] However, most high-temperature steam cleaning equipment on the market today lacks this precise flow control function. Although some equipment indirectly adjusts the flow by changing nozzles, adjusting the outlet, or using manual valves, these methods cannot provide precise flow regulation and are complicated and inefficient. Especially in environments where precise flow and temperature regulation is required, existing technologies often cannot meet the needs of efficient and precise cleaning. Utility Model Content

The adjustment mechanism includes a connecting sleeve, a rotating sleeve, a connecting pipe, a mating sleeve, a screw, a connecting frame, baffles, a guide groove, a support plate, a guide block, and a limiting mechanism. The connecting sleeve is fixed to the top of the output pipe, the rotating sleeve rotates at the top of the connecting sleeve, the connecting pipe fixes the input end of the spray gun and is rotatably connected to the rotating sleeve, the mating sleeve is fixed inside the rotating sleeve, the screw is threaded into the mating sleeve, the connecting frame is fixed to the top of the screw, multiple sets of baffles are fixed to the top surface of the connecting frame, the guide groove is located outside the multiple sets of baffles, multiple sets of support plates are fixed to the inner wall of the connecting sleeve, and the guide block is fixed to the outer wall of the multiple sets of support plates and is slidably connected to the multiple sets of baffles.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the limiting mechanism includes a limiting block, a limiting groove, a limiting sleeve, an outer ring, and a push spring. The limiting block is provided in multiple sets and slides on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve. The limiting groove is provided in multiple sets and distributed on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve. The limiting sleeve slides on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve. The outer ring is fixed on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve. The push spring is provided in multiple sets and its two ends are respectively connected to the outer ring and the limiting sleeve.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that both the input pipe and the output pipe are flexible hoses. This design makes the input and output pipes more flexible and adaptable, allowing for easier adjustment of the layout of the cleaning equipment to suit different operating environments, thus improving the flexibility and convenience of the equipment.

[0010] The present invention is further provided with an anti-slip sleeve fixedly provided on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve, the anti-slip sleeve being made of rubber. The anti-slip sleeve increases the friction during operation, preventing the rotating sleeve from becoming difficult to adjust due to slippage during use, and providing a more stable and precise control experience.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a guide plate is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the connecting frame, and a guide groove is provided on the inner wall of the connecting sleeve. Multiple sets of guide plates and guide grooves are provided and slidably connected. The slidable connection between the guide plates and guide grooves ensures that the connecting frame can slide smoothly and steadily during adjustment, thereby avoiding jamming between components and improving the overall adjustment accuracy and smoothness.

[0012] This invention is further characterized in that all of the multiple sets of baffles are elastic plates. The elastic baffles can automatically adjust their angle according to changes in steam flow, ensuring more precise flow regulation, improving the uniformity of airflow distribution, and enhancing the stability and efficiency of the cleaning effect.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that each of the multiple sets of guide blocks is cylindrical and slides within multiple sets of guide grooves. The cylindrical guide blocks can slide freely within the guide grooves, reducing frictional resistance and ensuring coordinated movement of all components during adjustment, thereby improving the accuracy of adjustment and overall stability.

[0014] This invention is further configured such that each of the multiple sets of limiting blocks is connected to a return spring at its top, and the bottom of each of the multiple sets of return springs is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating sleeve. The return springs ensure that after the adjustment operation is completed, the limiting blocks can quickly return to their original position, fixing the adjustment state, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the equipment during long-term use and preventing adjustment failure.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a high-temperature steam cleaner, which has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. By setting up components such as a water tank, water pump, water inlet pipe, steam generator, steam outlet pipe, and spray gun, a complete steam cleaning process is formed, which can realize continuous operation from water source extraction, water flow transportation, steam heating to spray cleaning. This structure not only ensures stable steam generation and transmission, but also enhances the flexibility and adaptability of the equipment through hose connection, making it suitable for a variety of complex cleaning environments. At the same time, the setting at the end of the spray gun makes it easy for the operator to hold and operate, improving the flexibility and efficiency of cleaning, and meeting the application needs of high-temperature steam cleaning in various scenarios such as industry, medical, and food.

[0018] 2. Through the coordinated operation of components such as the connecting sleeve, rotating sleeve, connecting pipe, mating sleeve, screw, connecting frame, baffle plate, guide groove, support plate, and guide block between the spray gun and the output pipe, precise adjustment of the steam output can be achieved. During operation, rotating the rotating sleeve drives the screw to rotate, causing the connecting frame and the multiple sets of baffle plates above it to change their positions, thereby changing the flow path and space of the steam airflow and effectively controlling the amount of steam output. This structural design allows users to flexibly adjust the steam flow according to cleaning needs, avoiding the problems of fixed or inconvenient steam flow adjustment in traditional equipment, improving the practicality and energy-saving effect of the equipment, and is especially suitable for fine cleaning tasks that require multi-level steam control.

[0019] 3. Through the cooperation of components such as limit blocks, limit grooves, limit sleeves, outer rings, push springs, and return springs, precise locking of the adjustment state is achieved. After adjustment, the limit sleeve is reset under the action of the push spring, causing the limit block to re-engage in the limit groove. At the same time, the return spring is compressed to form a reaction force, thereby firmly restricting the rotation of the rotating sleeve and preventing adjustment failure due to external force or vibration. This limiting method is simple to operate and responds quickly. It not only ensures the reliability of the adjustment results but also improves the safety performance and service life of the whole machine, providing an important guarantee for the stable operation of the equipment.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 A high-temperature steam cleaner includes a water tank 1, a water suction pipe 2 inside the water tank 1, a water pump 3 connected to the top of the water suction pipe 2, an input pipe 4 connected to the output end of the water pump 3, a steam generator 30 connected to the top of the input pipe 4, an output pipe 5 connected to the output end of the steam generator 30, a spray gun 6 at the top of the output pipe 5, and an adjustment mechanism between the output pipe 5 and the spray gun 6. The adjustment mechanism includes a connecting sleeve 7, a rotating sleeve 8, a connecting pipe 9, a mating sleeve 10, a screw 11, a connecting frame 12, a baffle plate 13, a guide groove 14, a support plate 15, a guide block 16, and a limit switch. The structure consists of a connecting sleeve 7 fixed to the top of the output pipe 5, a rotating sleeve 8 rotating on the top of the connecting sleeve 7, a connecting pipe 9 fixed to the input end of the spray gun 6 and rotatably connected to the rotating sleeve 8, a mating sleeve 10 fixed inside the rotating sleeve 8, a screw 11 threadedly connected inside the mating sleeve 10, a connecting frame 12 fixed to the top of the screw 11, multiple sets of baffles 13 fixed to the top surface of the connecting frame 12, guide grooves 14 on the outside of the multiple sets of baffles 13, multiple sets of support plates 15 fixed to the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 7, and guide blocks 16 fixed to the outer wall of the multiple sets of support plates 15 and slidably connected to the multiple sets of baffles 13 respectively.

[0030] The limiting mechanism includes a limiting block 17, a limiting groove 18, a limiting sleeve 19, an outer ring 20, and a push spring 21. The limiting block 17 is provided with multiple sets that slide on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 8. The limiting groove 18 is provided with multiple sets that are distributed on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 7. The limiting sleeve 19 slides on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 7. The outer ring 20 is fixed on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 7. The push spring 21 is provided with multiple sets and its two ends are respectively connected to the outer ring 20 and the limiting sleeve 19.

[0031] Both the input pipe 4 and the output pipe 5 are made of flexible hoses. This structure utilizes the flexibility of the hoses 4 and 5 to make the equipment more adaptable and adjustable during operation, making it easy to arrange in various spatial environments and improving the overall ease of use.

[0032] An anti-slip sleeve 22 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 8. The anti-slip sleeve 22 is made of rubber. The rubber anti-slip sleeve 22 is installed on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 8, which effectively enhances the friction between the operator's hand and the rotating sleeve, prevents slippage during adjustment, and thus achieves precise and stable operation control.

[0033] A guide plate 23 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the connecting frame 12, and a guide groove 24 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 7. Multiple sets of guide plates 23 and guide grooves 24 are provided and slidably connected. Through the sliding cooperation of multiple sets of guide plates 23 and guide grooves 24, the connecting frame 12 can maintain a stable linear motion trajectory during the adjustment process, which improves the coordination of the internal components and the adjustment accuracy.

[0034] All sets of baffles 13 are configured as elastic plates. The elastic plate-shaped baffles 13 have a certain degree of flexibility and can automatically make fine adjustments when the airflow pressure changes, thereby optimizing the steam flow direction and velocity adjustment capabilities and achieving more precise steam output control.

[0035] Multiple sets of guide blocks 16 are all cylindrical and slide within multiple sets of guide grooves 14. The cylindrical guide blocks 16 have low friction and smooth movement when sliding within the guide grooves 14, which helps the entire adjustment structure to operate smoothly and improves positioning accuracy and mechanical coordination efficiency.

[0036] Each of the multiple sets of limit blocks 17 has a return spring 25 connected to its top, and the bottom of each set of return springs 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 8. After adjustment, the return spring 25 can quickly drive the limit block 17 back to its original position and lock into the limit groove, effectively fixing the rotation state and preventing the equipment from shifting position due to vibration or misoperation, thus enhancing the safety and reliability of the adjustment structure.

[0037] In this embodiment, the water pump 3 is started to pump water from the water tank 1 through the water pipe 2, and then the water is delivered to the steam generator 30 through the input pipe 4. The steam generator 30 converts the water flow into steam and pressurizes it to the output pipe 5. Then, the water is sprayed out through the spray gun 6 for cleaning. When it is necessary to adjust the steam output, the limiting sleeve 19 is pushed to release the contact with the multiple limiting blocks 17. The multiple reset springs 25 pull the limiting blocks 17 away from the limiting grooves 18, releasing the limitation on the rotating sleeve 8. Then, the rotating sleeve 8 is rotated to drive the mating sleeve 10 to rotate. The mating sleeve 10 is threaded with the screw 11, so that the screw 11 drives the connecting frame 12 and the multiple baffles to move. The connecting frame 12 slides along the guide groove 24 through the multiple guide plates 23, and drives the multiple baffles to slide along the guide block 16 through the guide groove 14, thereby changing the tilt angle of the multiple guide plates, changing the flow space of the steam flow, and thus adjusting the steam output.

[0038] More specifically, after adjustment, the limiting sleeve 19 is released and pushed by multiple sets of push springs 21, so that the inner wall of the limiting sleeve 19 abuts against the top of multiple sets of limiting blocks 17, so that its bottom end is engaged in the limiting groove 18, and the multiple sets of reset springs 25 are squeezed to complete the limiting of the rotating sleeve 8.

[0039] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment: the water pump 3 is started to pump water from the water tank 1 through the water pipe 2, and then the water is delivered to the steam generator 30 through the input pipe 4. The steam generator 30 converts the water flow into steam and pressurizes it to the output pipe 5. Subsequently, the steam is sprayed out through the spray gun 6 for cleaning. When it is necessary to adjust the steam output, the limit sleeve 19 is pushed to release the contact with the multiple sets of limit blocks 17. The multiple sets of reset springs 25 pull the limit blocks 17 away from the limit groove 18, releasing the limit on the rotating sleeve 8. Then, the rotating sleeve 8 is rotated to drive the mating sleeve 10 to rotate. The mating sleeve 10 is threaded with the screw 11, which causes the screw 11 to drive the connecting frame 12 and the multiple sets of baffles to move. The connecting frame 12 slides along the guide groove 24 through the multiple sets of guide plates 23, which drives the multiple sets of baffles to slide along the guide block 16 through the guide groove 14, thereby changing the tilt angle of the multiple sets of guide plates, changing the flow space of the steam flow, and thus adjusting the steam output.

[0040] After adjustment, the limiting sleeve 19 is released and pushed by multiple sets of push springs 21, so that the inner wall of the limiting sleeve 19 abuts against the top of multiple sets of limiting blocks 17, so that its bottom end is engaged in the limiting groove 18, and the multiple sets of reset springs 25 are squeezed to complete the limiting of the rotating sleeve 8.
