Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of chemical equipment cleaning technology, and in particular relates to a cleaning device for color paste tanks used in color paste production. Background Technology
[0002] In pigment production, cleaning of pigment tanks is essential. If pigment tanks are not cleaned after use, residual pigment will dry and adhere, mixing with new pigment during subsequent production. This leads to color deviations and uneven color, failing to meet customers' stringent requirements for color accuracy. Furthermore, since different pigments may share the same pigment tank, incomplete cleaning can cause cross-contamination, altering the pigment composition and properties, ultimately rendering the product unusable.
[0003] Existing cleaning devices are not convenient for adjusting the nozzle angle when cleaning pigment tanks. The nozzle can only spray and clean the same spot at a fixed point, which means that the inner wall of the tank, especially the corners and welds, cannot be fully rinsed. The residual pigment is difficult to remove, which not only affects the purity of subsequent pigment production and increases the risk of cross-contamination when changing pigment colors, but also has low cleaning efficiency and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning device for color paste tanks used in color paste production. By setting up a rinsing mechanism, it ensures that the cleaning range can be increased when the spray pipe rotates, avoiding the problem of cleaning dead corners, and at the same time greatly improving the cleaning efficiency. It solves the problem that existing cleaning devices are not convenient to adjust the angle of the spray head when cleaning color paste tanks, and the spray head can only spray and clean the same position at a fixed point, resulting in the inner wall of the tank, especially the corners and welds, not being fully rinsed.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model is a cleaning device for color paste tanks used in color paste production, including a base, on which a rinsing mechanism and a positioning mechanism are provided;
[0007] The flushing mechanism includes a water tank fixedly connected to the top surface of the base. A water inlet is provided on the top surface of the water tank. A liquid pump is fixedly connected to the top surface of the water tank. A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the input end of the liquid pump. The bottom end of the connecting pipe extends to the inner bottom of the water tank. A water guide pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the liquid pump. A diverter is provided at the top end of the water guide pipe. Several diverter pipes are provided on the outer wall of the diverter.
[0008] The positioning mechanism includes a fixed frame fixedly connected to the top surface of the base. A support ring is fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed frame. Several slots are opened on the top surface of the support ring. Several washers are fixedly connected to the top surface of the support ring. A color paste tank is placed inside each of the several washers.
[0009] Furthermore, spray pipes are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the ends of the several diverter pipes away from the diverter, connecting sleeves are fixedly connected to the ends of the several diverter pipes away from the diverter, and limit rings are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the several spray pipes.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer walls of several connecting sleeves and several limiting rings are slidably connected, and several balls are provided in the preset raceways between the several connecting sleeves and several limiting rings.
[0011] Furthermore, each of the spray pipes has a spray head connected to its top end, and each of the spray heads has three nozzles connected to its outer wall.
[0012] Furthermore, a support frame is fixedly connected to the top surface of the water storage tank, and an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the top surface of the support frame.
[0013] Furthermore, the output end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to a connecting frame, and the bottom surface of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to several connecting rods, with a pad fixedly connected to the end of each connecting rod away from the connecting frame.
[0014] Furthermore, several of the pads are in contact with the top surfaces of several pigment tanks respectively, and a water collection trough is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing frame. The water collection trough is located below the support ring, and a drain outlet is provided on the outer wall of the water collection trough.
[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. By setting up a rinsing mechanism, the spray pipe is rotated under the action of the nozzles that are set in the same direction and inclined. The connecting sleeve, the limiting ring and the ball cooperate with each other, so that the spray pipe can rotate inside the connecting sleeve. The ball and the roller groove cooperate with each other to reduce the friction between the spray pipe and the diversion pipe, thereby ensuring that the spray pipe can increase the cleaning range when rotating, avoiding the problem of cleaning dead corners, and greatly improving the cleaning efficiency.
[0017] 2. With the positioning mechanism, the pad contacts the top of the pigment tank and works with the support ring to position the pigment tank, preventing it from shaking during cleaning and ensuring stability. The waste liquid after cleaning will drip into the water collection tank through the holes and grooves of the support ring and be discharged through the drain.
