Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette processing equipment, and more specifically to an online cleaning device for the copper chain of a stem cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette manufacturers use SD EVO type shredders. Due to the high moisture content of the incoming tobacco stems, tar and soot easily adhere to the surface and links of the copper busbar chain during production. If not removed promptly, this can cause the chain to slip and become unstable, ultimately affecting the shredding effect. Currently, after production, maintenance personnel use tools to clean and maintain the upper and lower copper busbar chains. Because the tar and soot adhering to the surface of the copper busbar chain are squeezed by the upper cutter, they adhere quite tightly, requiring repeated scraping of the chain surface and links with tools. This maintenance process is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, and repeated scraping can easily cause wear and tear on the chain surface. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0016] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2This embodiment discloses an online cleaning device for a copper busbar chain of a wire cutting machine. The copper busbar chain of the wire cutting machine has an end face wall plate at one end along the running direction. A cleaning device is provided on the side of the end face wall plate facing the copper busbar chain. The cleaning device includes a connecting frame 7 detachably mounted on the end face wall plate. The connecting frame 7 has mounting holes 8 for mounting to the end face wall plate. The connecting frame 7 is connected to the end face wall plate by screws. The connecting frame 7 has connecting rods 5 extending left and right. Specifically, two opposite mounting seats 6 are welded and fixed to the connecting frame 7. The left and right ends of the connecting rods 5 are respectively fixed to the two mounting seats 6 by screws. Two nozzle assemblies are detachably connected to the connecting rods 5. Each nozzle assembly includes an adjusting seat 4 and a dual-medium nozzle 1 fixedly mounted on the adjusting seat 4. The dual-medium nozzle 1 has a compressed air connector 2 and a cleaning water connector 3. The adjusting seat 4 is detachably mounted on the connecting rod 5 and can be adjusted in both circumferential and axial directions on the connecting rod 5.

[0017] The adjusting seat 4 has a lateral screw hole. A lateral locking screw is screwed into the lateral screw hole of the adjusting seat 4 and pressed against the connecting rod 5 to achieve a locking installation between the adjusting seat 4 and the connecting rod 5. Loosening the lateral locking screw allows adjustment of the circumferential and axial positions of the adjusting seat 4 on the connecting rod 5, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the dual-medium nozzle 1 mounted on the adjusting seat 4. The two nozzle assemblies are located outside the channel between the upper and lower rows of copper busbar chains. By adjusting the tilt angle of the dual-medium nozzle 1, convenient blowing cleaning of the upper copper busbar chain 9 and the lower copper busbar chain 10 can be achieved, meeting the cleaning needs of the upper and lower copper busbar chains.

[0018] In use, connect the compressed air connector 2 of the dual-media nozzle 1 to an external compressed air pipeline, and the cleaning water connector 3 to an external cleaning water pipeline. Adjust the axial position and tilt angle of the dual-media nozzle 1 by adjusting the axial and circumferential positions of the adjusting seat 4 on the connecting rod 5 to meet the cleaning requirements of the upper and lower copper busbar chains. Then connect the compressed air source and the cleaning water source, and spray the atomized water onto the surface of the copper busbar chain through the dual-media nozzle 1. Manually run the copper busbar chain until both the upper and lower surfaces are thoroughly wetted with water mist. Then disconnect the compressed air source and the cleaning water source. Maintenance personnel then use a brush and compressed air to further treat the soot and grease on the surface of the copper busbar chain. At this point, because the soot and grease have been softened by the atomized water, they are easily cleaned off, reducing the labor intensity of maintenance personnel and avoiding wear on the surface of the copper busbar chain caused by frequent scraping with maintenance tools due to the tight adhesion of soot and grease.

[0019] 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.
