Abstract
Description
A wax liquid cleaning and recycling device Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wax cleaning and recycling technology, and in particular relates to a wax cleaning and recycling device. Background Technology
[0002] A wax model is a casting mold used for recyclability. It is mainly obtained by melting wax at high temperature and then molding it into a mold. Due to its high casting precision, strong plasticity, and convenient operation, wax models are widely used in the casting process, especially in the production of small and highly irregular workpieces.
[0003] After casting a workpiece using a wax model, a large amount of waste wax material is generated upon demolding and removing the workpiece. This waste wax material contains numerous impurities, including those generated during the wax model making process when high-temperature molten wax is poured into the mold, and those introduced during the casting process. Therefore, the waste wax material has a high impurity content, often including casting sand.
[0004] Impurities are difficult to separate from the solidified wax mold because they are integrated with it. Furthermore, the cost of separation is high, so currently, most wax mold waste is discarded in production workshops. Clearly, this method not only causes serious resource waste, but also presents a significant challenge in the environmentally friendly disposal of the large quantity of waste wax generated from mass casting.
[0005] Therefore, in actual production processes, if a method that is economical, environmentally friendly, and easy to recycle is used to recycle and reuse the large amount of waste wax generated during production, it will not only achieve energy conservation and environmental protection, but also realize waste utilization. More importantly, it will avoid the high costs associated with large-scale waste wax disposal. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Based on the above background, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a wax liquid cleaning and recycling device.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A wax liquid cleaning and recycling device includes a cleaning container mechanism, wherein a cloth-making mechanism is installed inside the cleaning container mechanism.
[0009] The wax liquid is spread into the cleaning container through a cloth-spreading mechanism. During the cleaning process, the wax liquid, which has a density less than water, floats above the water layer.
[0010] The cleaning container mechanism is equipped with a wax liquid discharge pipe, with the inlet end of the wax liquid discharge pipe located at the upper end inside the cleaning container mechanism and the outlet end located on the outside of the cleaning container mechanism.
[0011] The fabric feeding mechanism includes a feeding structure, the discharge end of which is connected to the fabric feeding structure, and the fabric feeding structure includes a fabric bin; the fabric bin has several fabric through holes.
[0012] It also includes the fabric outlet pipe connected to the bottom of the fabric bin.
[0013] Preferably, the cleaning container mechanism includes an inner cleaning cylinder;
[0014] And the outer insulation sleeve fitted onto the outside of the inner inclined cylinder;
[0015] The cleaning container mechanism also includes a top seat bracket fixedly connected to the top of the inner cleaning cylinder, and the top of the inner cleaning cylinder is integrally formed with a tube section.
[0016] The tube section extends through the top support;
[0017] The top of the outer insulation sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top bracket.
[0018] Preferably, the space between the outer insulation sleeve and the inner cleaning cylinder is filled with insulation material.
[0019] Preferably, the feeding structure includes a feeding hopper, and the feeding hopper is connected to a feeding pipe;
[0020] The feed pipe passes through the cylindrical section and is fixedly connected to the cylindrical section.
[0021] Preferably, a cover is fixedly connected to the feed pipe, which covers the top of the fabric hopper.
[0022] Preferably, the fabric structure further includes several baffles fixedly connected in the fabric bin, with adjacent baffles forming a fabric section.
[0023] Preferably, the bottom of the fabric bin has a bottom fabric hole; the fabric outlet pipe is connected to the bottom fabric hole.
[0024] Preferably, a fabric tray is fixedly connected inside the bottom fabric hole, and the fabric tray has several through holes that connect to the fabric outlet pipe.
[0025] Preferably, the bottom of the inner cleaning cylinder is connected to a sewage drain pipe, which passes through the bottom of the outer insulation sleeve;
[0026] A valve is installed on the sewage pipe.
[0027] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0028] 1. During the fabric application process, the wax liquid is applied through the fabric structure and diffused out through the fabric's openings, ensuring even application and washing in water. Since the fabric container is submerged in the washing water, the wax liquid first comes into contact with the water for washing after draining from the openings before floating back to the surface. This repeated application process ensures thorough cleaning. This method achieves the removal of sand particles from the wax liquid through dispersed contact with water.
[0029] 2. During the fabric application process, some of the wax liquid is applied to the water through the fabric through-hole in a radial manner as described above, while some of the wax liquid is applied vertically downwards from the fabric outlet pipe (after passing through the fabric disc and through-hole structure). Due to its low density, the wax liquid eventually floats to the surface and mixes with the wax liquid mentioned above.
[0030] This method achieves dispersed fabric application. The advantage of dispersed fabric is that the dispersed wax liquid spreads out in the water, increasing the washing effect. In contrast, with centralized discharge methods, the wax liquid rises rapidly and its interaction with the water is less effective, resulting in a large amount of fine sand particles in the wax liquid not being washed away.
[0031] 3. The cleaning device disclosed in this utility model effectively solves the technical defect that the waste wax generated during wax mold demolding cannot be easily recycled. By washing with water, impurities in the wax are fully removed, making the wax liquid recyclable. It is not only economical and environmentally friendly, but also easy and simple to operate.

[0042] Example 1
[0043] As shown in Figures 1-5, a wax liquid cleaning and recovery device includes a cleaning container mechanism, the specific structure of which is as follows:
[0044] Similar to existing heat-insulating cleaning devices, the cleaning container mechanism adopts a double-layer structure. The reason for this is that the cleaning process is high-temperature cleaning, because under high temperature conditions, the waste wax melts into wax liquid and is then cleaned with high-temperature cleaning water.
[0045] During the cleaning process, the fat-soluble wax model floats above the water layer because its density is lower than that of water, while impurities in the wax model, such as sand and gravel particles, settle at the bottom of the water layer or dissolve in the water, thus achieving cleaning.
[0046] Specifically, the cleaning container mechanism includes an inner cleaning cylinder 1 and an outer insulation sleeve 2 fitted onto the outside of the inner inclined cylinder.
[0047] Specifically, the cleaning container mechanism also includes a top support bracket 7 (with a circular cross-sectional shape) fixedly connected to the top of the inner cleaning cylinder 1. The top of the inner cleaning cylinder 1 is integrally formed with a tube section. The tube section passes through the top support bracket 7 and is fixed to the mounting hole opened at the through position of the bracket, so that the top support bracket 7 can fix the inner cleaning cylinder 1.
[0048] Similarly, the top of the outer insulation sleeve 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top support 7. Furthermore, insulation material is filled between the outer insulation sleeve 2 and the inner cleaning cylinder 1 to form an insulation layer 3. The insulation material is a conventional insulation material disclosed in the prior art, such as insulating asbestos powder. This insulation design ensures that the high-temperature wax liquid and high-temperature water are kept warm during the cleaning process, thereby increasing the cleaning effect.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] As shown in Figures 1-5, this embodiment is based on the structure of embodiment 1. In order to increase the cleaning effect, when high-temperature wax liquid is added to the inner cleaning cylinder 1 for cleaning, the wax liquid is dispersed into the cleaning water to increase the cleaning effect.
[0051] Specifically, a cloth-spreading mechanism is installed within the cleaning container. This mechanism includes a feeding structure, the discharge end of which is connected to a cloth-spreading structure 53. The cloth-spreading structure 53 includes a cloth-spreading bin 531 (a cylindrical bin). The bin 531 has several rectangular cloth-spreading through-holes located on its outer wall. During the cloth-spreading process, the wax liquid is spread from the cloth-spreading structure and diffused through the through-holes, ensuring even distribution and cleaning in the water. Since the bin 531 is submerged in the cleaning water, after the wax liquid is discharged from the through-holes, it first comes into contact with the water for cleaning before floating back to the surface. This repeated cloth-spreading process achieves thorough cleaning.
[0052] Meanwhile, the fabric structure also includes a fabric outlet pipe 54 connected to the bottom of the fabric bin 531.
[0053] Specifically, the bottom of the fabric bin 531 has a bottom fabric hole; the fabric outlet pipe 54 is connected to the bottom fabric hole.
[0054] A fabric tray 534 is fixedly connected inside the bottom fabric hole, and the fabric tray 534 has several through holes 5341 that connect to the fabric outlet tube 54.
[0055] During the fabric application process, some of the wax liquid is applied to the water in a radial manner from the side through the fabric through hole 5341 as described above, while some of the wax liquid is applied vertically downwards from the fabric outlet pipe 54 (after passing through the fabric disc 534 and the through hole structure), and finally floats to the surface and mixes with the wax liquid due to its low density.
[0056] This method achieves dispersed fabric application. The advantage of dispersed fabric is that the dispersed wax liquid spreads out in the water, increasing the washing effect. In contrast, with centralized discharge methods, the wax liquid rises rapidly and its interaction with the water is less effective, resulting in a large amount of fine sand particles in the wax liquid not being washed away.
[0057] Example 3
[0058] As shown in Figures 1-5, based on the structure of Embodiment 2, this embodiment further enhances the effect of dispersing the material by including several baffles 532 fixedly connected within the material storage bin 531, with adjacent baffles forming a material distribution section. Specifically, the baffles 532 form a cross-shaped structure, dividing the material storage bin 531 into four material distribution sections, thereby further dispersing the wax liquid during operation into the water.
[0059] The aforementioned cleaning container mechanism is equipped with a wax discharge pipe 4. The inlet end of the wax discharge pipe 4 is located at the upper end of the cleaning container mechanism (i.e., the position corresponds to the position of the floating wax liquid, specifically extending into the lower end of the wax liquid layer), and the outlet end is located on the outside of the cleaning container mechanism.
[0060] During operation, the valve on the wax discharge pipe 4 is opened (in the existing way, the valve is installed at the discharge end) and the wax is discharged from the wax discharge pipe 4.
[0061] In actual operation, the procedure is as follows: high-temperature cleaning water is added to the inner cleaning cylinder 1 beforehand, and the water is added through the feeding structure mentioned above. Then, the operator adds a fixed amount of wax liquid according to the above method (in actual operation, the amount of water and wax is calculated and added) to ensure that the upper end of the wax liquid discharge pipe 4 can extend to the lower end of the wax layer.
[0062] In actual work, the above process is all obtained by calculating based on the volume of the container.
[0063] Meanwhile, the bottom of the inner cleaning cylinder 1 is connected to a wastewater drain pipe 11, which passes through the bottom of the outer insulation sleeve 2; a valve is installed on the wastewater drain pipe 11. After cleaning, when the wax liquid is discharged, the cleaning wastewater is discharged.
[0064] Example 4
[0065] As shown in Figures 1-5, this embodiment, based on the structure of embodiment 3, includes a feeding structure comprising a feeding hopper 51, which is connected to a feeding pipe 52; the feeding pipe 52 extends through the cylindrical section and is fixedly connected to the cylindrical section. A cover is fixedly connected to the feeding pipe 52, which covers the top of the fabric storage bin 531.
[0066] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
