[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0026] A cleaning structure for car hub maintenance includes a base plate 1, a controller 2 bolted to the top of the base plate 1, a rotating brush assembly 3 disposed on the top of the base plate 1, and an integrated liquid supply mechanism 4 disposed on the top of the base plate 1.

[0027] The rotating brush assembly 3 includes a fixing block 31. The bottom of the fixing block 31 is bolted to the left side of the top of the substrate 1. A first telescopic electric cylinder 32 is provided inside the fixing block 31. A mounting block 33 is provided on the top of the first telescopic electric cylinder 32. A second telescopic electric cylinder 34 is provided inside the mounting block 33. A connecting sleeve 35 is slidably sleeved on the left side of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34. A mounting plate 36 is bolted to the left side of the connecting sleeve 35. A rotary motor 37 is bolted to the top of the mounting plate 36. An adapter circular brush 38 is bolted to the output shaft of the rotary motor 37.

[0028] In this embodiment: the base plate 1 provides an installation platform for other components; the rotating brush assembly 3 provides brushing action during wheel hub cleaning; and the integrated liquid supply mechanism 4 provides the necessary clean water and cleaning fluid supply when the rotating brush assembly 3 is working. The controller 2 controls the operation of the entire cleaning structure. During the operation of the rotating brush assembly 3, the fixing block 31 provides stable support for the first telescopic electric cylinder 32, while the mounting block 33 bolted to its top provides installation conditions for the second telescopic electric cylinder 34. The telescopic end of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 is fitted with a connecting sleeve 35. 5. A mounting plate 36 is bolted to the left side, and a connecting sleeve 35 is the connecting structure. The mounting plate 36 provides a mounting platform for the rotary motor 37, and the adapter round brush 38 bolted to the output end of the rotary motor 37 can provide a suitable rotating brushing action for the wheel hub. Before the adapter round brush is brushed, the first telescopic electric cylinder 32 provides height adjustment for the adapter round brush 38, and the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 provides left and right position adjustment for the adapter round brush 38. This enables the cleaning structure to quickly perform overall rotating cleaning of the wheel hub and left and right movement cleaning through the extension and retraction of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the integrated liquid supply mechanism 4 includes an integrated liquid supply tank 41, the bottom of which is bolted to the top of the substrate 1.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the integrated liquid supply tank 41 is equipped with a clean water tank 42 and a cleaning liquid tank 43. The tops of the cleaning liquid tank 43 and the clean water tank 42 are fixedly connected to a connecting component 44.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the top of the connecting component 44 is fixedly connected to an infusion tubing 45, and the other ends of the two infusion tubing 45 are respectively fixedly connected to a clean water nozzle 46 and a cleaning fluid nozzle 47.

[0032] In this embodiment: After the controller 2 is started, the integrated liquid supply mechanism 4 starts to work. The integrated liquid supply tank 41 is located on the top of the base plate 1. The clean water tank 42 and the cleaning liquid tank 43 inside it store clean water and cleaning liquid respectively. When cleaning is required, the controller 2 issues a command, and the connecting component 44 on the top of the clean water tank 42 and the cleaning liquid tank 43 starts to work, drawing out the clean water and cleaning liquid respectively. The clean water and cleaning liquid are transported through the infusion hose 45 which is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting component 44. The other end of the infusion hose 45 is connected to the clean water nozzle 46 and the cleaning liquid nozzle 47 respectively. Finally, the clean water and cleaning liquid are sprayed out from the clean water nozzle 46 and the cleaning liquid nozzle 47 respectively, providing cleaning liquid for the wheel hub cleaning.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, support rods 5 are bolted to the front and rear sides of the top of the mounting plate 36, and the tops of the two support rods 5 are respectively bolted to the bottom of the water nozzle 46 and the cleaning liquid nozzle 47.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, a limit strip 6 is provided on the surface of the output end of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34, and a limit groove 7 is provided inside the connecting sleeve 35. The surface of the limit strip 6 is in contact with the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 35. A pressure sensor 8 is provided inside the connecting sleeve 35, and the two sides of the pressure sensor 8 are in contact with the connecting sleeve 35 and the second telescopic electric cylinder 34, respectively.

[0035] In this embodiment: the rotating brush assembly 3 is responsible for brushing the wheel hub during the cleaning process. The bottom of the fixing block 31 is bolted to the top left side of the base plate 1. The first telescopic electric cylinder 32 inside the fixing block 31 is activated, and the mounting block 33 on its top will rise or fall with the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod of the first telescopic electric cylinder 32 to adjust to a suitable cleaning height. The second telescopic electric cylinder 34 inside the mounting block 33 starts to work. Since the limiting strip 6 on the surface of the output end of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 cooperates with the limiting groove 7 inside the connecting sleeve 35, the connecting sleeve 35 will slide along the axial direction of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34, thereby driving the mounting plate 36 bolted to the left to move left and right, adjusting the horizontal position of the adapter round brush 38. The contact force between the adapter round brush 38 and the wheel hub will be transmitted to the connecting sleeve 35, and the connecting sleeve 3... The internal pressure sensor 8 detects the pressure between the connecting sleeve 35 and the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 in real time and feeds the pressure information back to the controller 2. If the pressure is abnormal, the controller 2 can adjust the extension and retraction of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 to achieve adaptive adjustment of the contact force of the adapter round brush 38 when cleaning the wheel hub. The rotary motor 37 on the top of the mounting plate 36 starts, and its output shaft drives the bolted adapter round brush 38 to rotate and brush the wheel hub. At the same time, the support rods 5 bolted to the front and rear sides of the top of the mounting plate 36 will move with the mounting plate 36, thereby driving the water nozzle 46 and the cleaning fluid nozzle 47 bolted to the top of the support rod 5 to move, ensuring that during the brushing process, water and cleaning fluid can be accurately sprayed onto the bristles of the adapter round brush 38 and the wheel hub to achieve process cleaning of the wheel hub.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a fixing frame 9 is bolted to both the front and rear sides of the top of the substrate 1, and a push handle 10 is bolted to the top of the fixing frame 9.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, four connecting posts 11 are bolted to the bottom of the base plate 1. Universal wheels 12 are rotatably mounted on the bottom of the connecting posts 11, and brake pedals 13 are mounted on the right side of the two universal wheels 12 on the right side.

[0038] In this embodiment: Before the cleaning work begins, the operator holds the push handle 10 on the top of the fixing frame 9. Since the bottom of the four connecting columns 11 at the bottom of the base plate 1 is equipped with casters 12, the entire cleaning structure can be easily moved to the vicinity of the car hub. When it reaches the appropriate position, the operator steps on the brake pedal 13 on the right side of the two casters 12 on the right side to stop the casters 12 from rotating and fix the cleaning structure in this position to prevent the cleaning structure from moving during the cleaning process and ensure the stable progress of the cleaning work. After the cleaning work is completed, the brake pedal 13 is released, and the push handle 10 can be pushed again to move the cleaning structure to another position for storage or to carry out the next cleaning operation.

[0039] Working principle: Before the cleaning operation begins, the operator holds the push handle 10 at the top of the mounting bracket 9 and uses the omnidirectional casters 12, which are rotatably mounted on the bottom of the four connecting posts 11 at the bottom of the base plate 1, to easily move the entire cleaning structure to the vicinity of the car hub. Once in the appropriate position, the operator presses the brake pedal 13 on the right side of the two omnidirectional casters 12 to stop their rotation, thus fixing the cleaning structure and preventing movement during cleaning, ensuring stable operation. Afterwards, the operator activates the controller 2 to control the operation of the entire cleaning structure, and the integrated liquid supply mechanism 4 begins to work. Inside the integrated liquid supply tank 41 at the top of plate 1, the clean water tank 42 and the cleaning liquid tank 43 store clean water and cleaning liquid respectively. When the controller 2 issues a command, the connecting component 44 at the top of the clean water tank 42 and the cleaning liquid tank 43 draws out the clean water and cleaning liquid, which are then delivered to the clean water nozzle 46 and the cleaning liquid nozzle 47 through the infusion hose 45 and sprayed out to provide liquid for cleaning the wheel hub. The rotating brush assembly 3 is responsible for brushing the wheel hub. The bottom of the fixing block 31 is bolted to the top left side of the base plate 1, and the first telescopic electric cylinder 32 inside it is activated, causing the top mounting block 33 to drive the adapted circular brush 38 to rise. Or lower to adjust to a suitable cleaning height; the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 inside the mounting block 33 works, and the limiting strip 6 on its output end surface cooperates with the limiting groove 7 inside the connecting sleeve 35, causing the connecting sleeve 35 to drive the left mounting plate 36 to move left and right, adjusting the horizontal position of the adaptable round brush 38. The contact force between the adaptable round brush 38 and the wheel hub is transmitted to the connecting sleeve 35. The pressure sensor 8 inside the connecting sleeve 35 detects the pressure and feeds it back to the controller 2. If the pressure is abnormal, the controller 2 adjusts the extension and retraction of the second telescopic electric cylinder 34 to achieve adaptive adjustment of the contact force. The rotary motor 37 at the top of the 36 starts, driving the adapted circular brush 38 to rotate and scrub. At the same time, the support rod 5 on the mounting plate 36 drives the water spray head 46 and the cleaning fluid spray head 47 to move, ensuring that the water and cleaning fluid are accurately sprayed onto the brush bristles and the wheel hub, thus achieving process cleaning. The height is adjusted by the first telescopic electric cylinder 32 and the left and right position is adjusted by the second telescopic electric cylinder 34, so as to achieve overall rotational cleaning and left and right movement cleaning of the wheel hub. After the cleaning work is completed, the brake pedal 13 is released and the push handle 10 is pushed to move the cleaning structure to another position for storage or for the next operation.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
