Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motorcycle parts technology, and in particular to a motorcycle shock absorber cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] The statements herein provide only background information related to this invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] Motorcycle shock absorbers are an important component of the motorcycle suspension system. Their main function is to reduce and absorb impacts and vibrations from the road surface, thereby improving riding comfort and vehicle handling stability. During the manufacturing process of shock absorbers, cutting fluid or coolant is usually used to reduce cutting temperature, reduce tool wear, and improve the surface quality of the machined parts. These liquids and cutting residues will remain on the surface and inside of the shock absorber after processing. If they are not removed in time, they will affect subsequent assembly and use.
[0004] Currently, when cleaning shock absorbers, motorcycle shock absorbers are usually placed in a cleaning basket, and then the cleaning basket is placed in an ultrasonic cleaning tank for cleaning. However, because the shock absorbers are stacked in the cleaning basket, they are very prone to collision and damage. Furthermore, after ultrasonic cleaning, there is still cleaning fluid residue on the surface and inside of the shock absorbers, which requires further cleaning in subsequent processes, resulting in low cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned shortcomings by providing a motorcycle shock absorber cleaning device that reduces damage to the shock absorber during cleaning and improves cleaning efficiency.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a motorcycle shock absorber cleaning device, comprising an ultrasonic cleaner with a cleaning water tank, wherein the cleaning water tank of the ultrasonic cleaner is provided with an ultrasonic cleaning zone and a rinsing zone distributed from bottom to top, and a plurality of positioning components are provided in the cleaning water tank for positioning the shock absorber in the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the rinsing zone. The cleaning water tank is also provided with a spray component for rinsing the shock absorber in the rinsing zone, and the ultrasonic cleaner is provided with a pushing mechanism for moving the shock absorber between the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the rinsing zone.
[0007] Furthermore, the positioning component includes an inner sleeve disposed within the ultrasonic cleaning zone, an outer sleeve capable of vertical movement fitted onto the inner sleeve, and a compression spring disposed at the bottom of the outer sleeve. When the compression spring is in its natural state, the outer sleeve is located within the rinsing zone, and when the compression spring is in its fully compressed state, the outer sleeve is located within the ultrasonic cleaning zone.
[0008] Furthermore, both the inner and outer sleeves are hollow tubes and are interconnected. The top of the outer sleeve has a water spray hole that communicates with the inner cavity of the outer sleeve. The cleaning tank of the ultrasonic cleaner is equipped with a water supply pipe for connecting with each inner sleeve, and the water inlet of the water supply pipe is connected to the water supply network.
[0009] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism includes a support platform mounted on the ultrasonic cleaner and a pressure plate located directly above the cleaning tank. The support platform is provided with a telescopic component for driving the pressure plate to move up and down. The telescopic component is used to drive the pressure plate to move down into the cleaning tank and push the outer sleeve down.
[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the pressure plate is detachably provided with a material picking plate for simultaneously picking up multiple shock absorbers. The material picking plate has through holes corresponding to the positions of the shock absorbers on each positioning component, and multiple rubber strips for abutting against the shock absorbers are provided in the through holes.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in:
[0012] This invention uses a positioning component to separate and position multiple shock absorbers, ensuring they do not shake or collide during cleaning and reducing damage. Simultaneously, by dividing the cleaning tank into an ultrasonic cleaning zone and a rinsing zone, a pushing mechanism first moves the shock absorbers to the ultrasonic cleaning zone for ultrasonic cleaning, vibrating and loosening any adhering substances on their surfaces. Then, the pushing mechanism moves the shock absorbers to the rinsing zone, where a spray component washes away any remaining liquid and residue. Thus, the entire cleaning process can be completed within this single device, improving cleaning efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[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 a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model discloses a motorcycle shock absorber cleaning device, including an ultrasonic cleaner 1 with a cleaning water tank. The cleaning water tank of the ultrasonic cleaner 1 is provided with an ultrasonic cleaning zone and a rinsing zone distributed from bottom to top. Multiple positioning components 2 are provided in the cleaning water tank for positioning the shock absorber in the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the rinsing zone. The cleaning water tank is also provided with a spray component 3 for rinsing the shock absorber in the rinsing zone. The ultrasonic cleaner 1 is provided with a pushing mechanism 4 for moving the shock absorber between the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the rinsing zone.
[0021] This invention uses a positioning component 2 to separate and position multiple shock absorbers, ensuring that they do not shake or collide during cleaning and reducing cleaning damage. Simultaneously, by dividing the cleaning tank into an ultrasonic cleaning zone and a rinsing zone, a pushing mechanism 4 first moves the shock absorbers to the ultrasonic cleaning zone for ultrasonic cleaning, causing surface deposits to vibrate and loosen. Then, the pushing mechanism 4 moves the shock absorbers to the rinsing zone, where a spray component 3 washes away residual liquid and debris. Thus, the entire cleaning process can be completed within this device, improving cleaning efficiency.
[0022] It should be noted that the ultrasonic cleaner 1 and the spray assembly 3 are common knowledge in the field, so their specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this article.
[0023] In one embodiment, the positioning component 2 includes an inner sleeve 21 disposed in the ultrasonic cleaning zone, an outer sleeve 22 that can be raised and lowered and moved is sleeved on the inner sleeve 21, and a compression spring 23 is disposed at the bottom of the outer sleeve 22. When the compression spring 23 is in the natural state, the outer sleeve 22 is located in the rinsing zone, and when the compression spring 23 is in the fully compressed state, the outer sleeve 22 is located in the ultrasonic cleaning zone.
[0024] This design allows the shock absorber to be fitted over the outer sleeve 22 and move between the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the rinsing zone as the outer sleeve 22 moves up and down, ensuring that the shock absorber can maintain the required position during ultrasonic cleaning and rinsing operations.
[0025] It should be noted that a rubber sleeve is provided on the outer sleeve 22 to reduce collision damage between the shock absorber and the outer sleeve 22 during cleaning.
[0026] In one embodiment, both the inner sleeve 21 and the outer sleeve 22 are hollow tubes, and the inner sleeve 21 and the outer sleeve 22 are interconnected. The top end of the outer sleeve 22 is provided with a water spray hole that communicates with the inner cavity of the outer sleeve 22. The cleaning water tank of the ultrasonic cleaner 1 is provided with a water supply pipe 5 for communicating with each inner sleeve 21. The water inlet end of the water supply pipe 5 is connected to the water supply network.
[0027] This design allows the shock absorber to not only have residual liquid and residue removed from its outer surface by the spray assembly 3 during the washing operation in the rinsing area, but also to have water supplied to the inner sleeve 21 through the water supply pipe 5. This allows the cleaning water to be sprayed into the inside of the shock absorber from the spray holes, removing residual liquid and residue from the inner surface of the shock absorber as well, thus further improving the comprehensiveness of the cleaning.
[0028] It should be noted that when water is sprayed from the spray nozzle, the pushing mechanism 4 must be positioned above the shock absorber to prevent the shock absorber from being pushed upwards by the water.
[0029] In one embodiment, the pushing mechanism 4 includes a support platform 41 disposed on the ultrasonic cleaner 1 and a pressure plate 42 located directly above the cleaning tank. The support platform 41 is provided with a telescopic component 43 for driving the pressure plate 42 to move up and down. The telescopic component 43 is used to drive the pressure plate 42 to move down into the cleaning tank and push the outer sleeve 22 down.
[0030] This design allows the pushing mechanism 4 to cooperate with the positioning component 2, and adjust the height of the pressure plate 42 through the telescopic component 43 to squeeze the shock absorber cylinder that is pre-placed on the outer sleeve 22 below, so that the shock absorber cylinder can move between the ultrasonic cleaning zone and the rinsing zone.
[0031] It should be noted that the telescopic component 43 can be a hydraulic telescopic component, a pneumatic telescopic component, or an electric telescopic component, all of which are common knowledge in the field. Therefore, its specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this article.
[0032] In one embodiment, the bottom of the pressure plate 42 is detachably provided with a material picking plate 6 for simultaneously picking up multiple shock absorbers. The material picking plate 6 has through holes corresponding to the positions of the shock absorbers on each positioning component 2, and multiple rubber strips for abutting against the shock absorbers are provided in the through holes.
[0033] This design allows the material receiving plate 6 to move down with the pressure plate 42 after being connected to it, and to be fitted onto each shock absorber during the downward movement. The material receiving plate 6 then abuts against the shock absorber through rubber strips, so that when the pressure plate 42 rises, it can pull each shock absorber out of the cleaning tank together, making it convenient for subsequent operators to take out and transfer the cleaned shock absorbers.
[0034] The specific workflow is as follows: Before cleaning the shock absorber, the material taking plate 6 is separated from the pressure plate 42. The shock absorber to be cleaned is placed on each outer tube 22 by manual operation. Then, the pressure plate 42 is pushed down by the telescopic component 43 to push the shock absorber into the ultrasonic cleaning area. Water is added to the cleaning tank through the spray component 3 until it covers the shock absorber. The ultrasonic cleaner 1 is started for ultrasonic cleaning. After ultrasonic cleaning is completed, the telescopic component 43 drives the pressure plate 42 to move up and retract, so that the shock absorber moves up with the outer tube 22 to the rinsing area under the push of the compression spring 23. The inner and outer tube walls of the shock absorber are rinsed by the spray component 3 and the water supply pipe 5. After rinsing is completed, the wastewater in the cleaning tank is drained and the material taking plate 6 is installed on the pressure plate 42. The pressure plate 42 moves down continuously, so that the shock absorber is pressed and inserted into the perforation of the material taking plate 6. Finally, the pressure plate 42 moves up to remove the cleaned shock absorber from the cleaning tank.
[0035] It should be noted that if the embodiments of this utility model involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.
[0036] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this utility model involve descriptions such as "first" or "second," these descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
[0037] Additionally, "multiple" refers to two or more.
[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
