Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning and drying devices, and in particular to a device for cleaning and drying the surface of pen parts. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of fountain pens, the cleaning and drying of the parts is a crucial step. As a precision writing instrument, the parts of a fountain pen, such as the nib, feed, converter (ink cartridge), and grip, come into contact with various impurities such as grease, dust, and metal shavings during production. If these impurities are not thoroughly removed, they will affect the writing performance of the fountain pen, causing problems such as poor ink flow, paper scratching, and skipping, and may even lead to damage to the pen.

[0003] However, existing pen parts surface cleaning and drying devices mainly rely on hot air drying and water cleaning. Such cleaning and drying methods are difficult to completely remove stains from the surface of pen parts, and are prone to leaving residues. Moreover, traditional drying methods are often slow and cannot guarantee uniform drying of the parts surface, which can easily lead to secondary pollution.

[0004] Therefore, in order to address the problems of low cleaning efficiency, incomplete cleaning, and slow drying speed of the traditional pen parts surface cleaning and drying devices, a pen parts surface cleaning and drying device can be designed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the problems of low cleaning efficiency, incomplete cleaning, and slow drying speed of traditional pen parts cleaning and drying devices.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a pen parts surface cleaning and drying device, including a cleaning tank, a support frame, a mounting groove, a drying component, a push cylinder, a connecting arm, a bearing groove, and a water spray pipe; the support frame is fixedly connected to the outside of the cleaning tank; a long strip-shaped mounting groove is opened at the upper end of the support frame; a drying component capable of repeatedly moving along a path to dry the surface of the pen parts is installed inside the mounting groove; the drying component includes a linear drive mechanism, a hot air blower, and a fan hood; a hot air blower is installed at the lower end of the linear drive mechanism; a fan hood is fixedly connected to the lower end of the hot air blower outlet; symmetrical push cylinders are installed on the inner side of the support frame; a connecting arm is installed at the upper end of the piston rod of the push cylinder; a bearing groove is welded between the connecting arm and another connecting arm; a water spray pipe for spraying and cleaning the pen parts placed in the bearing groove is installed inside the cleaning tank.

[0007] Preferably, the first step is to place the pen parts to be cleaned in the carrier tank, ensuring that the parts are evenly distributed and do not pile up. Then, the push cylinder is activated, and the carrier tank is smoothly pushed into the cleaning tank through the connecting arm, ensuring that the carrier tank is completely immersed in the cleaning solution for a period of time.

[0008] The second step is to push the cylinder to lift the carrier tank, allowing it to detach from the cleaning fluid, and then turn on the water spray nozzle on the water spray pipe to spray and clean the pen parts in the carrier tank evenly.

[0009] The third step involves restarting the push cylinder to raise the bearing groove, activating the linear drive mechanism, and rotating the threaded rod driven by the motor. This causes the threaded sleeve and the hot air blower and hood mounted on it to move repeatedly along the path of the mounting groove. The hot air generated by the hot air blown evenly onto the surface of the pen parts in the bearing groove through the hood, achieving rapid drying. Excess water falls into the cleaning pool.

[0010] Preferably, the linear drive mechanism consists of a motor, a threaded rod, and a threaded sleeve.

[0011] As a preferred option, the bottom surface of the bearing trough adopts a mesh design.

[0012] Preferably, the support frame has limit grooves at both ends; a connecting arm is slidably connected to the inside of the limit groove.

[0013] Preferably, the water spray pipe is equipped with equally spaced spray heads at one end near the bearing tank; the spray heads are designed with an inclination; and a pumping pipe is installed on the outer side of the water spray pipe to transport the water stored in the cleaning tank upwards.

[0014] Preferably, a baffle is installed at the lower end of the inner side of the cleaning tank; the water pump of the water pumping pipe is located at the upper end of the baffle.

[0015] Preferably, a sealing sleeve is provided on the lower rear side of the cleaning tank; a sliding rod is slidably connected to the inner side of the sealing sleeve; a push plate is fixedly connected to the front end of the sliding rod; and a slag discharge channel with a sealing plug is provided on the lower front side of the cleaning tank.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] This invention achieves automated cleaning and drying of pen parts by coordinating the operation of a cylinder, connecting arm, bearing tank, cleaning pool, water spray pipe, and drying components. This reduces manual operation and lowers labor costs. Soaking helps soften stains, while spraying powerfully washes them away. The combination of these two methods ensures a comprehensive and thorough cleaning of the pen parts. A linear drive mechanism moves the hot air blower and fan hood repeatedly along the mounting groove path, blowing hot air evenly onto the parts surface for rapid drying. The cleaning solution can be recycled, reducing water waste. The push plate at the bottom facilitates cleaning and reduces maintenance difficulty and cost. Attached Figure Description
