[0027] As shown in the figure, a welding wire cleaning device includes a box 1 with an opening at the top. Multiple pressure rollers 2 are installed inside the box 1, and guide roller groups 3 are located at both the left and right ends of the top of the box 1. Both the pressure rollers 2 and the guide roller groups 3 are arranged along the width of the box 1. A connecting frame 4 is fixed to the right side of the box 1, and a wiping component 5 is inserted into and fixed in the connecting frame 4. Multiple wiping sleeves are arranged side-by-side on the wiping component 5. In this embodiment, the box 1 contains cleaning fluid for soaking and cleaning the welding wire, such as removing oil stains from the surface of the welding wire. The welding wire passes between the guide roller groups 3 at the end furthest from the wiping component 5, and sequentially winds around the pressure rollers 2, exiting from the other end of the guide roller group 3, and then exiting from the wiping sleeves on the wiping component 5. After being cleaned by the cleaning fluid in the box 1, the welding wire is wiped clean by the wiping sleeves and finally wound up by a winding wheel located on the right side of the device. Of course, to ensure more thorough drying of the cleaned welding wire, a hot air blower can be additionally installed above the connecting frame 4.

[0028] Multiple pressure rollers 2 are staggered and spaced apart, with the pressure rollers 2 at both ends located at the lower part of the box 1, ensuring that the welding wire is arranged in an up-and-down wavy manner inside the box 1, thus extending the contact time between the welding wire and the cleaning liquid inside the box 1.

[0029] The pressure roller 2 has multiple uniformly formed first annular grooves 201, and a first rubber layer is wrapped inside the first annular grooves 201. A through groove runs through the center of the pressure roller 2. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to each pressure roller 2 inside the housing 1, and the pressure roller 2 rotates and is sleeved onto the connecting rod. In this embodiment, the front and rear ends of the pressure roller 2 are respectively close to or in contact with the inner wall of the corresponding housing 1, ensuring that the pressure roller 2 does not move significantly in the front-to-back direction, thereby ensuring that the welding wire is confined within the corresponding first annular groove 201 and does not come out.

[0030] Mounting brackets 7 are fixedly attached to both the left and right ends of the top of the housing 1. Each mounting bracket 7 includes a base plate 701 and a support plate 702. The base plate 701 is fixedly attached to the upper side of the housing 1, and the support plates 702 are vertically fixedly attached to both the front and rear sides of the upper surface of the base plate 701. Each guide roller group 3 includes two guide rollers, and each guide roller includes a connecting shaft 301 and multiple I-beam wheels 302. The I-beam wheels 302 are movably sleeved on the connecting shaft 301 at intervals. Limiting blocks 303 are fixedly attached to both sides of each I-beam wheel 302 on the connecting shaft 301. In one mounting bracket 7, the two connecting shafts 301 of each guide roller group 3 are horizontally fixed between two support plates 702, and the second annular groove on each I-beam wheel 302 corresponds one-to-one with the first annular groove 201 on the pressure roller 2. In this embodiment, the limiting blocks 303 adopt a nut structure and are screwed onto the connecting shaft 301 to axially limit the I-beam wheels 302. Furthermore, the positions of the I-beams 302 on the two guide rollers in each guide roller group 3 correspond one-to-one, and the second annular groove corresponds one-to-one with the first annular groove 201, ensuring that the welding wire can pass through the middle of the two corresponding I-beams 302. In this embodiment, the two ends of the substrate 701 are fixed to the upper side of the housing 1 by fixing bolts.

[0031] The connecting frame 4 includes a U-shaped plate 401, with two side walls of the U-shaped plate 401 arranged front and rear. A U-shaped mounting block 402 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the side wall of the U-shaped plate 401 at a location corresponding to the erasing component 5. The erasing component 5 includes a lower support plate 501 and an upper support plate 502 fixed to the upper side of the lower support plate 501. The lower support plate 501 has outwardly extending locking edges 5011 on both its front and rear sides, which are inserted into the insertion slots of the corresponding mounting blocks 402. The lower support plate 501 protrudes from the U-shaped plate. A 401-type mounting plate is configured with multiple lower grooves 5012 corresponding to the first annular groove 201 arranged side-by-side on the upper side of the lower support plate 501. A lower wiping pad 5013 is fixedly connected in each lower groove 5012. An upper groove 5021 is formed on the lower side of the upper support plate 502 corresponding to each lower groove 5012. An upper wiping pad 5022 is fixedly connected in each upper groove 5021. The lower wiping pads 5013 and 5022 are joined together to form a wiping sleeve. In this embodiment, the lower wiping pads 5013 and 5022 can be made of rubber or sponge. The appropriate lower support plate 501 and upper support plate 502 are selected according to the thickness of the welding wire to ensure that the welding wire is squeezed when passing through the wiping sleeve, and the water stains on the surface of the welding wire are wiped clean by the wiping sleeve. In this embodiment, a suitable wiping sleeve can be selected according to the thickness of the welding wire, that is, by replacing the appropriate upper support plate 502 and lower support plate 501, so as to make the welding wire wiping more thorough. In addition, the wiping assembly 5 is set as a spliced ​​and fixed structure, which facilitates the replacement of components individually in the later stage.

[0032] The upper support plate 502 has first fixing blocks 5023 horizontally outward at both its front and rear ends, and the lower support plate 501 has second fixing blocks 5014 horizontally outward at both its front and rear ends on the upper side of the U-shaped plate 401. Both the first fixing blocks 5023 and the second fixing blocks 5014 have fixing holes, and the U-shaped plate 401 has threaded holes 403 corresponding to the fixing holes. The upper support plate 502 and the lower support plate 501 are fixed together with the U-shaped plate 401 by fixing pins 6 engaging with the corresponding fixing holes and threaded holes 403. In this embodiment, the fixing holes may also have internal threads, and the fixing pins 6 are bolts, vertically screwed into the two fixing holes and the corresponding threaded holes 403 to fix the upper support plate 502 and the lower support plate 501.

[0033] Multiple wiping components 5 are arranged at intervals and side by side to ensure that water stains on the surface of the welding wire are thoroughly wiped away.

[0034] The bottom of the U-shaped plate 401 is also provided with multiple drainage holes 404, so that water droplets falling from the welding wire into the connecting frame 4 can be discharged downwards when they accumulate.

[0035] A counterweight 9 is fixedly attached to the side of the housing 1 away from the connecting frame 4 to ensure that the housing 1 is stable when placed flat. In this embodiment, the counterweight 9 has a wedge-shaped structure and is located at the bottom of the inner side of the housing 1 to avoid interfering with the welding wire.

[0036] A drain outlet 101 is provided at the bottom of one side of the housing 1, and a switch valve (not shown in the figure) is provided at the drain outlet 101. In this embodiment, the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1 is set as a planar structure, a concave arc-shaped surface structure, or a conical surface structure, and the drain outlet 101 is located at the lowest point.

[0037] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 8 is also provided between the bottom of the connecting frame 4 and the box 1.

[0038] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0039] Cleaning fluid is placed inside the housing 1. Multiple welding wires pass through the I-beams 302 of the guide roller group 3 at the end furthest from the wiping component 5, and sequentially wrap around the corresponding first annular groove 201 on the pressure roller 2. They then exit through the corresponding I-beams 302 on the other end of the guide roller group 3, and finally pass through the wiping sleeve on the wiping component 5. After being cleaned by the cleaning fluid inside the housing 1, the welding wires are wiped clean by the wiping sleeve, and finally wound up by the winding wheel located on the right side of the device. Of course, since a large number of welding wires are being cleaned simultaneously, the positions of the winding wheels for releasing and winding the welding wires can be staggered to avoid mutual interference.

[0040] 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.
