Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive plug cleaning technology, specifically to an ultrasonic cleaning machine for automotive plugs before painting. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive plugs typically refer to covers used to seal holes or specific components in the vehicle body, such as fuel tank caps and engine hoods. Before painting, the surface of the workpiece needs to be kept clean. Any grease, dust, oxides, or other contaminants can affect the adhesion between the coating and the substrate, leading to a decline in coating quality, problems such as blistering and peeling, and even shortening the service life of the workpiece. In this case, an ultrasonic cleaner is usually used to clean the automotive plugs.

[0003] However, current ultrasonic cleaning machines for automotive plugs before painting still have the following shortcomings: When using these machines, all the plugs to be cleaned are usually placed in the cleaning basket before the machine is started. However, this method has obvious drawbacks. The plugs are stacked on top of each other, making it difficult for the overlapping parts to be fully exposed to the cleaning fluid and ultrasonic waves, which greatly increases the cleaning difficulty. Although the plugs can eventually be cleaned by extending the cleaning time, it undoubtedly reduces the overall work efficiency. In addition, most ultrasonic cleaning machines on the market are equipped with cleaning baskets that do not have a flipping function, which further affects the cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an ultrasonic cleaning machine for automotive plugs before painting, which can lay automotive plugs in layers in a cleaning basket.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an ultrasonic cleaning machine for use before painting automotive plugs, comprising an ultrasonic cleaning machine, a cleaning basket installed inside the ultrasonic cleaning machine, a top cover installed on the cleaning basket, a T-shaped support column inserted at the bottom center of the cleaning basket, a holding basket fixed to the outer wall of the T-shaped support column, and a pressure plate installed on the holding basket.

[0006] Furthermore, guide posts are fixedly connected to both sides of the ultrasonic cleaner, guide grooves are provided on both guide posts, sliders are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two guide grooves, and rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the opposite faces of the two sliders. The opposite faces of the two rotating shafts are fixedly connected to both sides of the cleaning basket.

[0007] Furthermore, limit holes are provided through the side walls of both sliders, and limit grooves are provided through the upper ends of the side walls of both guide posts. The shape and size of the limit grooves are adapted to the limit holes, and limit bolts are threaded into the limit grooves.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the four corners of the top cover is threaded with a fixing bolt, which penetrates the top cover into the corner wall of the washing basket for bolt fastening.

[0009] Furthermore, a handle is fixed to the top center of the top cover, and the handle has an anti-slip texture.

[0010] Furthermore, symmetrical rectangular through holes are provided on both sides of the bottom center of the holding basket, and the rectangular through holes also penetrate the pressure plate. Limiting blocks are fixed to both sides of the bottom center of the holding basket in the areas where the rectangular through holes are not provided. The upper surface of the limiting block is in contact with the lower surface of the pressure plate. The limiting block is located in the basket body through hole area of ​​the top cover, and the rectangular through hole is located in the basket body solid area of ​​the top cover.

[0011] Furthermore, the holding basket is a basket body with an opening on one side and a hollow interior. Rectangular sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the holding basket near the opening. Long sliders are slidably connected in both rectangular sliding grooves. The opposite surfaces of the two long sliders are fixed to the two sides of the pressure plate. Fixing grooves are provided on the upper surfaces of both sides of the holding basket near the opening. The two fixing grooves penetrate the two long sliders to the lower surface of the holding basket. Fastening bolts are threaded into the two fixing grooves. A limiting groove is provided on the side wall of the pressure plate opposite to the opening of the holding basket. The outer wall of the T-shaped support column is slidably connected in the limiting groove. The arc diameter of the limiting groove is adapted to the cylindrical diameter of the T-shaped support column.

[0012] Furthermore, a blocking rod is fixedly connected to the basket body of the top cover. The blocking rod is inserted into a rectangular through hole, and the lower end of the blocking rod is in contact with the lower surface of the cleaning basket.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This utility model, through the cooperation of the cleaning basket, top cover, holding basket, pressing plate and rectangular through hole, eliminates the need to pour all the car plugs into the ultrasonic cleaner during cleaning. Instead, they can be laid flat in each holding basket, reducing the stacking of car plugs. The structure is simple, easy to operate and highly practical.

[0015] This invention utilizes the cooperation of a holding basket, a pressure plate, a rotating shaft, and a blocking rod. After a period of cleaning in an ultrasonic cleaner, when the basket needs to be rotated, the rotating shaft rotates the entire cleaning basket 180°. Under the spatial constraints of the pressure plate, the holding basket, and the limiting block, the car cover is not easily moved horizontally left or right. At the same time, during the rotation process, if there is a tendency to move to one side, it will be blocked by the blocking rod, so the car cover is not easily moved horizontally forward or backward.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an ultrasonic cleaning machine for automotive plugs before painting includes an ultrasonic cleaning machine 1, a cleaning basket 6 installed inside the ultrasonic cleaning machine 1, a top cover 7 installed on the cleaning basket 6, a T-shaped support column 13 inserted into the bottom center of the cleaning basket 6, a holding basket 14 fixed to the outer wall of the T-shaped support column 13, and a pressure plate 20 installed on the holding basket 14.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, in this utility model, the ultrasonic cleaning machine for pre-painting of car plugs is used by laying the car plugs flat on each holding basket 14, and then covering them with the pressure plate 20, and then ultrasonic cleaning can be performed.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, guide posts 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the ultrasonic cleaner 1. Guide grooves 3 are opened on both guide posts 2. Slider 4 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two guide grooves 3. Rotary shafts 5 are rotatably connected to the opposite faces of the two sliders 4. The opposite faces of the two rotating shafts 5 are fixedly connected to both sides of the cleaning basket 6.

[0029] Specifically, when the position needs to be adjusted, the cleaning basket 6 can be lifted and moved upward along the guide groove 3 by the slider 4. After reaching a certain position, it can be rotated and then put back into the original position to continue cleaning.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, limit holes 10 are provided through the side walls of both sliders 4, and limit grooves 11 are provided through the upper ends of the side walls of both guide posts 2. The shape and size of the limit grooves 11 are adapted to the limit holes 10, and limit bolts 12 are connected to the internal threads of the limit grooves 11.

[0031] Specifically, when adjusting the position, after the slider 4 moves to the predetermined position, the limiting groove 11 and the limiting hole 10 are located in the same horizontal area. At this time, tighten the limiting bolt 12 into the limiting groove 11, and then it can be rotated.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the top cover 7 has four corners threaded with fixing bolts 9. The fixing bolts 9 pass through the top cover 7 and into the corner wall of the cleaning basket 6 for bolt fastening. Through these fixing bolts 9, the top cover 7 can be fixed to the cleaning basket 6, so that the top cover 7 will not fall off when rotating or performing other operations.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a handle 8 is fixed to the top center of the top cover 7. The handle 8 has an anti-slip texture. The handle 8 makes the operation process more stable, and the anti-slip texture also reduces the accidental slippage.

[0034] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, symmetrical rectangular through holes 15 are provided on both sides of the bottom center of the holding basket 14. The rectangular through holes 15 also penetrate the pressure plate 20. Limiting blocks 16 are fixed to both sides of the bottom center of the holding basket 14 in the areas where the rectangular through holes 15 are not provided. The upper surface of the limiting block 16 is in contact with the lower surface of the pressure plate 20. The limiting block 16 is located in the basket body through hole area of ​​the top cover 7, and the rectangular through holes 15 are located in the basket body solid area of ​​the top cover 7.

[0035] Specifically, the rectangular through hole 15 ensures that liquid can enter the container basket 14, and at the same time, it can serve as a place for the car plug. In addition, the limiting block 16 will block and restrict the placed plug, preventing it from moving freely.

[0036] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the basket 14 is a basket body with an opening on one side and a hollow interior. Rectangular grooves 17 are provided on both sides of the basket 14 near the opening. Long sliders 19 are slidably connected in both rectangular grooves 17. The opposite surfaces of the two long sliders 19 are fixed to the two sides of the pressure plate 20. Fixing grooves 18 are provided on the upper surfaces of both sides of the basket 14 near the opening. The two fixing grooves 18 penetrate the two long sliders 19 to the lower surface of the basket 14. Fastening bolts 21 are threaded into the two fixing grooves 18. A limiting groove 22 is provided on the side wall of the pressure plate 20 opposite to the opening of the basket 14. The outer wall of the T-shaped support column 13 is slidably connected in the limiting groove 22. The arc diameter of the limiting groove 22 is adapted to the cylindrical diameter of the T-shaped support column 13.

[0037] Specifically, when the pressure plate 20 needs to be removed, with the assistance of the two long sliders 19, the pressure plate 20 can be removed more easily by holding the T-shaped support column 13. When the device is working, the pressure plate 20 can be fixed by the fastening bolts 21. Finally, with the assistance of the limiting groove 22, the T-shaped support column 13 will not block the extraction and closing of the pressure plate 20, allowing it to operate more smoothly.

[0038] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a blocking rod 23 is fixed to the solid area of ​​the basket body of the top cover 7. The blocking rod 23 is inserted into the rectangular through hole 15, and the lower end of the blocking rod 23 is in contact with the lower surface of the cleaning basket 6.

[0039] Specifically, during the rotation process, the car cover is not easy to slide freely left or right, nor is it easy to slide freely forward or backward. The entire car cover can be restricted, so the car cover is not easy to move forward during the rotation process and will not stack on the front cover, reducing the occurrence of front and back stacking.

[0040] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
