[0032] It should be noted that all uses of "first" and "second" in the embodiments of this utility model are for the purpose of distinguishing two entities or parameters with the same name but different names. It is clear that "first" and "second" are only for the convenience of expression and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this utility model. Subsequent embodiments will not explain this in detail.

[0033] The directional and positional terms used in this utility model, such as "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," "top," "bottom," and "side," are merely for reference to the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional and positional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this utility model, and not for limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, a self-cleaning sight glass assembly suitable for a filter washing and drying machine includes a vessel body 1 and a sight glass 2 fixed on the vessel body 1.

[0035] It also includes a swinging component 3 and a rotary drive assembly. The swinging component 3 is located inside the vessel body 1 and is parallel to and attached to the lower end face of the sight glass 2. One end of the swinging component 3 is a fixed end. The rotary drive assembly drives the swinging component 3 to swing back and forth around its fixed end to form a fan-shaped motion trajectory. The swinging component 3 is always attached to the lower end face of the sight glass 2 during the swinging process.

[0036] With this setup, the rotary drive assembly drives the oscillating component to oscillate back and forth. The oscillating component can remove moisture or materials adhering to the lower end face of the sight glass, thereby forming a fan-shaped clean area for observation.

[0037] The rotary drive assembly includes a telescopic cylinder 51, a first connecting rod 52, a linkage 53, a second connecting rod 54, all arranged parallel to the lower end face of the sight mirror 2, and a fixing assembly arranged perpendicular to the lower end face of the sight mirror 2.

[0038] One end of the linkage 53 is provided with a first strip-shaped hole 531 extending towards the center.

[0039] One end of the first connecting rod 52 is fixedly connected to the driving end of the telescopic cylinder 51, and the other end is provided with a vertically extending limiting post 521 that is adapted to the shape of the first strip hole 531. The limiting post 521 is inserted into the first strip hole 531 to form a linkage with the linkage member 53.

[0040] The sight glass 2 has a first limiting through hole 21 vertically penetrating it at the fixed end of the swing member 3, and the fixing component is horizontally and vertically limited within the first limiting through hole 21 at a certain position in the vertical direction, forming a rotational engagement with it.

[0041] One vertical end of the fixing component is fixedly connected to the fixed end of the swing member 3, and the other end is fixedly connected to one end of the second connecting rod 54. The other end of the second connecting rod 54 is fixedly connected to the end of the linkage member 53 away from the first connecting rod 52.

[0042] The reciprocating telescopic drive of the swing member 3 via the telescopic cylinder 51 drives the swing member 3 to swing back and forth around its fixed end.

[0043] With this configuration, the linkage, the second connecting rod, the fixed component, and the swinging component form a fixed fit, that is, the four components form a linkage that can only rotate relative to the first through hole. The extension and retraction of the telescopic cylinder drive end drives the extension and retraction of the first connecting rod. Through the fit between the limiting pin and the first strip hole, the linkage of the four components—the linkage, the second connecting rod, the fixed component, and the swinging component—rotates forward / reverse relative to the first through hole, making the structure stable and reliable.

[0044] The outer shell of the telescopic cylinder needs to be fixed on another carrier, which can be the vessel body or other separately set carrier.

[0045] The fixing component includes a first fixing member 55 and a second fixing member 56 arranged from top to bottom. The upper end of the first fixing member 55 is fixedly connected to the first connecting rod 52, and the lower end of the second fixing member 56 is fixedly connected to the swing member 3.

[0046] The lower end of the first fixing member 55 is larger than the first limiting through hole 21 and abuts against the upper surface of the sight glass 2. The first fixing member 55 has a mounting hole 551 that extends vertically to the bottom at its center.

[0047] The second fixing member 56 includes a first connecting part 561 and a second limiting part 562 connected from top to bottom. The first connecting part 561 is clearance-fitted with the first limiting through hole 21 and its upper end passes through the first limiting through hole 21 and is fixedly connected to the mounting hole 551. The second limiting part 562 is larger than the first limiting through hole 21 and abuts against the lower end surface of the sight glass 2.

[0048] This design allows for easy assembly and disassembly of the fixed components while ensuring the stability of the connection between the fixed components and the viewing mirror.

[0049] The mounting hole 551 is a threaded hole, and the outer periphery of the first connecting part 561 has a threaded section that is adapted to the mounting hole 551. The first connecting part 561 is threadedly connected to the mounting hole 551.

[0050] This design further improves the ease of assembly and disassembly between the first and second fasteners, and allows for easy installation and adjustment of the installation depth of the second fastener.

[0051] The swing member 3 includes a fixed handle 31 and a cleaning brush 32. The fixed handle 31 is detachably connected to the second limiting part 562 via a first threaded part 33.

[0052] This feature facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the swing component.

[0053] The fixed handle 31 has a first threaded hole 311 that forms a threaded engagement with the first threaded member 33.

[0054] The second limiting part 562 has a horizontally arranged mounting adjustment groove 563 that is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the fixed handle part 31. The bottom of the second limiting part 562 is provided with a second strip hole 564 that communicates with the mounting adjustment groove 563 at the position corresponding to the mounting adjustment groove 563. The first threaded part 33 passes through the second strip hole 564 and is threadedly connected to the first threaded hole 311.

[0055] This setting allows the position of the swing element to be adjusted according to actual usage, improving the flexibility of the application.

[0056] The cleaning brush part 32 includes a support plate 321 connected to the fixed handle part 31 and a flexible layer 322 connected to the upper end of the support plate 321. The flexible layer 322 abuts against the lower end surface of the sight glass 2.

[0057] This design allows the flexible layer to deform, improving the fit between the cleaning brush and the sight glass, thus enhancing the cleaning effect and preventing moisture and materials from easily entering between them. The flexible layer is specifically made of silicone material.

[0058] The cross-section of the flexible layer 322 is convex arc-shaped.

[0059] This design further improves the fit between the cleaning brush and the sight glass, making it less likely for moisture and materials to enter between them.

[0060] It also includes a fixed upper seat 6 that is fixed to the vessel body 1 by a second threaded component 62.

[0061] The upper inner circumference of the vessel body 1 is provided with a first mounting groove 11 that matches the shape of the lower outer circumference of the sight glass 2, and the lower inner circumference of the fixed upper seat 6 is provided with a second mounting groove 61 that matches the shape of the upper outer circumference of the sight glass 2. The sight glass 2 is located between the first mounting groove 11 and the second mounting groove 61.

[0062] This design enables convenient assembly and disassembly between the sight glass and the vessel body.

[0063] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent variations made in accordance with the claims of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
