[0031] Working principle: When cleaning the milling cutter body 20, place the milling cutter body 20 on the flip plate 52, then control the reset plate 55 to move downwards. The clamping rod 54, under the action of the spring, will clamp the milling cutter bodies 20 of different diameters. Then tighten the fixing screw to prevent the clamping rod 54 from loosening. At this time, the cutting head of the milling cutter body 20 is located in the cleaning frame 2. Then control the first cylinder 3 to retract, and the telescopic inner rod 81 will move back into the air rod 8. At this time, the telescopic inner rod 81 is connected to the external air pipe 10, and the gas will be blown out from the first drying plate 14 to blow away the chips from the milling cutter body 20. The protective plate 6 can reduce the splashing of chips. After completion... The first motor 4 is controlled to rotate, and the lead screw 17 drives the flipping part 5 to move. After moving to the designated position, the second motor 53 is controlled to rotate, and the flipping plate 52 moves the milling cutter body 20 into the soaking box 9. During the soaking process, the ultrasonic cleaning is started. After the cleaning is completed, the flipping plate 52 is rotated back, and then the flipping part 5 is moved to one side of the drying rack 12. The milling cutter body 20 is dried once through the second drying plate. The dried liquid flows into the soaking box 9 through the return pipe 15. Then the milling cutter body 20 is disassembled and inserted into the corresponding sized insertion slot 13. The heating plate 19 dries the milling cutter body 20 a second time.
