Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning devices, specifically a quick cleaning device for a lower copper busbar chain. Background Technology

[0002] The copper chain is a mechanism used in tobacco stem cutting machines to transport tobacco stems and shreds. After prolonged use, the copper chain needs to be cleaned, thus requiring a tool for cleaning it. The copper chain consists of several end-to-end links, with adjacent links connected by pins. Therefore, cleaning the copper chain requires not only cleaning its upper and lower surfaces but also the gaps between the links, which are where dust and debris tend to accumulate, necessitating deep cleaning.

[0003] Currently, the tools for cleaning lower copper busbar chains include manual brushes and rotating brush wheels mounted on angle grinders. When using manual brushes to clean lower copper busbar chains, the process is not only slow but also results in uneven cleaning. While rotating brush wheels mounted on angle grinders can remove debris from the gaps in the chain links, the large size of angle grinders makes them unsuitable for cleaning smaller copper busbar chains. Furthermore, rotating the brush wheels on an angle grinder generates a large amount of dust, which can cause secondary pollution. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a quick cleaning device for the lower copper busbar chain, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A quick cleaning device for a lower copper busbar chain includes a bottom tank frame and a top tank frame, the bottom and top tank frames being of the same specifications. The rear ends of the bottom and top tank frames are connected by a hinge. A lower rotating shaft is rotatably connected horizontally in the middle of the inner cavity of the bottom tank frame. A lower friction roller is fixedly inserted through the middle of the lower rotating shaft, and a lower driving gear is fixedly inserted through the end of the lower rotating shaft. Two lower driven shafts are symmetrically rotatably connected to both sides of the lower rotating shaft, and lower driven gears are fixedly inserted through the ends of both lower driven shafts. The lower driving gears mesh with each other. Two lower driven gears are connected, and a lower roller brush is fixedly inserted through the middle of each of the two lower driven shafts; an upper rotating shaft is rotatably connected horizontally in the middle of the inner cavity of the top groove frame, an upper friction roller is fixedly inserted through the middle of the upper rotating shaft, an upper driving gear is fixedly inserted through the end of the upper rotating shaft, two upper driven shafts are symmetrically rotatably connected on both sides of the upper rotating shaft, and an upper driven gear is fixedly inserted through the end of each of the two upper driven shafts. The upper driving gear meshes with the two upper driven gears, and an upper roller brush is fixedly inserted through the middle of each of the two upper driven shafts.

[0007] Furthermore, a dust outlet is provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the bottom tray, the dust outlet is connected to a dust collection hopper, and a vacuum cleaner is connected to the bottom of the dust collection hopper.

[0008] Furthermore, both sides of the bottom and top slot frames are hinged to have side-flipping covers, and the four side-flipping covers are fitted with straight rows of bristles on the side closest to each other.

[0009] Furthermore, a lower handle is fixedly connected to the front end of the bottom groove frame, and an upper handle is fixedly connected to the front end of the top groove frame. An adjusting screw is screwed onto the upper handle, and the bottom end of the adjusting screw abuts against the top surface of the lower handle.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower friction roller and the upper friction roller are made of rubber or plastic, and the number of the lower friction roller and the upper friction roller are the same and they are arranged tangentially.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This invention utilizes the transmission power of the copper busbar chain itself, and drives four roller brushes through two friction rollers to perform rolling cleaning on the upper and lower surfaces of the copper busbar chain. The tangential rotation direction of the lower and upper roller brushes is opposite to the movement direction of the lower copper busbar chain, thus enabling better deep cleaning of the surface of the lower copper busbar chain and the gaps at the chain joints.

[0013] This utility model has a dust outlet hole in the middle of the bottom surface of the bottom groove frame. The dust outlet hole is connected to a dust collection hopper, and the bottom end of the dust collection hopper is connected to a vacuum cleaner. Dust and fine particles cleaned from the lower copper busbar chain will fall into the dust collection hopper through the dust outlet hole and then be absorbed by the vacuum cleaner, avoiding secondary pollution caused by dust flying. It has the advantages of simple operation, easy adjustment, high applicability, deep cleaning and good external environment during cleaning when cleaning copper busbar chains.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a quick cleaning device for a lower copper busbar chain, including a bottom trough frame 1 and a top trough frame 2. The bottom trough frame 1 and the top trough frame 2 are of the same specifications. The rear ends of the bottom trough frame 1 and the top trough frame 2 are connected by a hinge. A lower rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner cavity of the bottom trough frame 1 in the horizontal direction. A lower friction roller 4 is fixedly inserted through the middle of the lower rotating shaft 3. A lower driving gear 5 is fixedly inserted through the end of the lower rotating shaft 3. Two lower driven shafts 6 are symmetrically rotatably connected to both sides of the lower rotating shaft 3. A lower driven gear 7 is fixedly inserted through the end of each of the two lower driven shafts 6. The lower driving gear 5 meshes with... Two lower driven gears 7 are connected together, and lower roller brushes 8 are fixedly inserted through the middle of the two lower driven shafts 6; an upper rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner cavity of the top groove frame 2, an upper friction roller 10 is fixedly inserted through the middle of the upper rotating shaft 9, an upper driving gear 11 is fixedly inserted through the end of the upper rotating shaft 9, two upper driven shafts 12 are symmetrically rotatably connected to both sides of the upper rotating shaft 9, and upper driven gears 13 are fixedly inserted through the ends of the two upper driven shafts 12. The upper driving gear 11 meshes with the two upper driven gears 13, and an upper roller brush 14 is fixedly inserted through the middle of the two upper driven shafts 12.

[0021] In this embodiment, the bottom slot frame 1 and the top slot frame 2 are hinged together and closed. When they are hinged, the lower copper busbar chain to be cleaned is clamped at the opening junction. The cleaning personnel can manually hold the bottom slot frame 1 and the top slot frame 2 to fix their position. When the lower copper busbar chain moves horizontally, it moves relative to the fixed bottom slot frame 1 and the top slot frame 2. At this time, the bottom surface of the lower copper busbar chain drives the lower friction roller 4 to rotate. The lower friction roller 4 drives the two lower driven shafts 6 to rotate through the lower rotating shaft 3, the lower driving gear 5 and the lower driven gear 7, which in turn drives the lower roller brush 8 to rotate, brushing and cleaning the bottom surface of the lower copper busbar chain. Similarly, the top surface of the lower copper busbar chain drives the upper friction roller 10 to rotate. The upper friction roller 10 drives the two upper driven shafts 12 to rotate through the upper rotating shaft 9, the upper driving gear 11 and the upper driven gear 13, which in turn drives the upper roller brush 14 to rotate, brushing and cleaning the top surface of the lower copper busbar chain, thereby obtaining a good cleaning effect.

[0022] Because the lower drive gear 5 meshes with two lower driven gears 7, and the upper drive gear 11 meshes with two upper driven gears 13, the rotation directions of the lower rotating shaft 3 and the two lower driven shafts 6, and the upper rotating shaft 9 and the two upper driven shafts 12 are opposite. At this time, the rotation directions of the lower friction roller 4 and the lower roller brush 8 are opposite, and the rotation directions of the upper friction roller 10 and the upper roller brush 14 are opposite. This causes the tangential rotation directions of the lower roller brush 8 and the upper roller brush 14 to be opposite to the movement direction of the lower copper busbar chain. Therefore, the lower roller brush 8 and the upper roller brush 14 can better perform deep cleaning on the surface of the lower copper busbar chain and the gaps at the chain joints.

[0023] In this application, a dust outlet 15 is provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the bottom tray 1, the dust outlet 15 is connected to a dust collection hopper 16, and a vacuum cleaner is connected to the bottom end of the dust collection hopper 16.

[0024] Therefore, the dust and fine particles cleaned from the lower copper busbar chain will fall into the dust collection hopper 16 through the dust outlet 15 and then be absorbed by the vacuum cleaner, avoiding secondary pollution caused by flying dust and ensuring a good working environment for cleaning staff.

[0025] In this application, both sides of the bottom groove frame 1 and the top groove frame 2 are connected by hinges to side flip-up cover plates 17, and the four side flip-up cover plates 17 are fitted together on the side that is close to each other with straight rows of bristles 18.

[0026] The side-flipping cover 17 and the straight brush bristles 18 can perform preliminary cleaning of debris on the lower copper busbar chain. The straight brush bristles 18 can also seal the cleaning components such as the lower roller brush 8 and the upper roller brush 14 in the bottom slot frame 1 and the top slot frame 2, preventing the dust brushed out from flying everywhere.

[0027] In this application, a lower handle 19 is fixedly connected to the front end of the bottom groove frame 1, and an upper handle 20 is fixedly connected to the front end of the top groove frame 2. An adjusting screw 21 is screwed onto the upper handle 20, and the bottom end of the adjusting screw 21 abuts against the top surface of the lower handle 19.

[0028] Users can open and close the bottom slot frame 1 and the top slot frame 2 using the lower handle 19 and the upper handle 20 to clamp the lower copper busbar chain that needs to be cleaned between them; the distance between the lower handle 19 and the upper handle 20 can be controlled by turning the adjusting screw 21, thereby controlling the friction force of the lower friction roller 4 and the upper friction roller 10 on both sides of the copper busbar chain.

[0029] In this application, the lower friction roller 4 and the upper friction roller 10 are made of rubber or plastic, and the number of the lower friction roller 4 and the upper friction roller 10 are the same and they are arranged tangentially.

[0030] Therefore, the lower friction roller 4 and the upper friction roller 10 can increase the friction force through deformation, so as to drive the lower roller brush 8 and the upper roller brush 14 to rotate and clean the surface of the copper busbar chain.

[0031] In summary, this quick cleaning device has the advantages of simple operation, easy adjustment, high applicability, deep cleaning, and good external environment when cleaning copper busbar chains.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
