[0019] This application provides a crucible cleaning device that effectively solves the problem of cleaning metal residues from the inner wall of crucibles after casting in metal smelting. Manual cleaning is inefficient, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and often leaves residues on the inner wall. This device is highly automated, using a motor to drive the lifting and lowering of the cleaning components and the rotation of the scraper, reducing the difficulty of manual operation. Its cleaning efficiency far exceeds that of manual cleaning, quickly removing residues. It can adapt to crucibles of different sizes and shapes. Utilizing common and mature mechanical components with reasonable connections, it has a low failure rate, effectively solving the problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive crucible cleaning and incomplete residue removal. Example

The manual cleaning process is inefficient, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and difficult to clean completely, leaving residue on the inner wall of the crucible. The overall idea is as follows: A crucible cleaning device includes a lifting assembly 10 and a cleaning assembly 20. The lifting assembly 10 includes a lifting motor 11, a guide rail 12, a slider 13, a lead screw assembly 14, a drag chain 15, a frame 16, and a lifting mounting base 17. The lifting motor 11 is installed at the rear end of the frame 16, the guide rail 12 is fixed to both sides of the front end of the frame 16, the slider 13 is slidably installed on the guide rail 12, the lead screw assembly 14 is fixedly installed in the middle of the front end of the frame 16, the drag chain 15 is installed on one side of the guide rail 12, and the lifting mounting base 17 connects the slider 13 and the lead screw assembly 14. The lifting mounting base 17 is threaded onto the lead screw assembly 14. The cleaning assembly 20 includes... The equipment includes a rotary motor 21, a scraper assembly 22, a double diaphragm coupling 23, and a protective frame 24. The cleaning assembly 20 is fixedly mounted on a lifting mounting base 17. The rotary motor 21 and the scraper assembly 22 are connected through the double diaphragm coupling 23. The rotary motor 21 is fixedly mounted inside the protective frame 24. When in use, the lifting motor 11 is started, which rotates the lead screw assembly 14. Since the slider 13 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 12, the lead screw assembly 14 and the slider 13 are connected through the lifting mounting base 17. The lifting mounting base 17 is threaded onto the lead screw assembly 14. The cleaning assembly 20 is fixed on the lifting mounting base 17, so the cleaning assembly 20 will move down to the designated position with the lifting mounting base 17. At this time, the rotary motor 21 inside the cleaning assembly 20 rotates, which drives the scraper assembly 22 to rotate through the double diaphragm coupling 23, cleaning the metal residue on the inner wall of the crucible. This equipment is simple to operate, greatly improves cleaning efficiency, and has the advantages of strong adaptability and low failure rate.

[0021] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a crucible cleaning device. This device is highly automated in operation, using a motor to drive the lifting and lowering of the cleaning components and the rotation of the scraper, reducing the difficulty of manual operation. The cleaning efficiency far exceeds that of manual cleaning, and it can quickly remove residues. It can adapt to crucibles of different sizes and shapes. It uses common and mature mechanical parts with reasonable connections, resulting in a low failure rate and effectively solving the problems of time-consuming and laborious crucible cleaning and incomplete residue removal.

[0022] in:

[0023] Working principle:

[0024] When in use, the lifting motor 11 is started. At this time, the lifting motor 11 rotates, driving the lead screw assembly 14 to rotate. Since the slider 13 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 12, the lead screw assembly 14 and the slider 13 are connected through the lifting mounting seat 17. The lifting mounting seat 17 is threaded onto the lead screw assembly 14. The cleaning assembly 20 is fixed on the lifting mounting seat 17. Therefore, the cleaning assembly 20 will follow the movement of the lifting mounting seat 17 and descend to the designated position. At this time, the rotary motor 21 inside the cleaning assembly 20 rotates, driving the scraper assembly 22 to rotate through the double diaphragm coupling 23, cleaning the metal residue on the inner wall of the crucible. This equipment is simple to operate, greatly improves the cleaning efficiency, and has the advantages of strong adaptability and low failure rate.
