Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of guide wheel surface treatment technology, and in particular to an automated cleaning device for degreasing the surface of guide wheels. Background Technology

[0002] A guide wheel is a mechanical part used to guide, support, or transmit moving components, typically in the form of a wheel or roller. Its core functions include motion guidance, load support, and power transmission. Guide wheels often face challenges such as wear, corrosion, and high-temperature oxidation during operation, leading to performance degradation or shortened lifespan. Thermal spraying technology forms a high-performance coating on the surface of the guide wheel, improving its wear resistance, corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, and reducing friction and energy consumption.

[0003] The surface cleanliness of the guide wheel directly affects the coating quality and service life. Oil stains form a physical isolation layer, hindering the bonding between the sprayed material and the guide wheel substrate. Therefore, the guide wheel needs to be degreased and cleaned before thermal spraying. Ultrasonic cleaning is a highly efficient and environmentally friendly cleaning technology. It uses an ultrasonic transducer to convert electrical energy into high-frequency mechanical oscillations, generating a cavitation effect in a liquid medium. When ultrasound propagates in a liquid, it generates tens of thousands of alternating compression and decompression forces per second, forming tiny bubbles (vacuum nucleus bubbles). These bubbles expand under decompression and rapidly burst under compression, releasing a large amount of energy and forming shock waves that peel away dirt and stubborn particles adhering to the surface of objects. Simultaneously, the propagation of ultrasound generates a direct flow in the liquid, accelerating the convection of the cleaning fluid on the surface of the object being cleaned, carrying away dirt and improving cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, at high frequencies, ultrasound propels liquid particles, causing high-acceleration collisions between liquid particles and dirt, making it more suitable for ultra-precision cleaning.

[0004] In existing technologies, the loading and unloading of ultrasonic cleaning equipment used for degreasing and cleaning guide wheel surfaces is done manually. For large-scale degreasing and cleaning of guide wheels, manual handling is extremely laborious and can cause water from the cleaning equipment to drip onto the ground, affecting hygiene. Therefore, this invention proposes an automated cleaning device for degreasing and cleaning guide wheel surfaces to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automated cleaning device for degreasing the surface of guide wheels. A linear movement mechanism is installed on the support frame at the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank to drive the mounting base to move linearly. An automatic lifting mechanism located on the mounting base can lift a cleaning basket containing a large number of guide wheels from a lower loading pallet into the ultrasonic cleaning tank for ultrasonic cleaning. Furthermore, it can automatically lift the cleaning basket, after cleaning in the ultrasonic cleaning tank, into an unloading pallet for automatic discharge. This process eliminates the need for frequent manual handling of the cleaning basket, resulting in low labor consumption.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An automated cleaning device for degreasing the surface of guide wheels includes an ultrasonic cleaning tank, a support frame, and an automatic lifting mechanism.

A cleaning basket is provided inside the ultrasonic cleaning tank, and booms are hinged to both sides of the top of the cleaning basket.

[0008] A further improvement is that the support frame includes support beams and cross beam plates. Support beams are provided on both the front and rear sides of the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank. A cross beam plate is provided between the upper ends of the two support beams. The linear movement mechanism is located on the top of the cross beam plate.

[0009] A further improvement is that the linear movement mechanism includes a linear lead screw, a guide groove, and a first motor. The linear lead screw is rotatably provided on the rear side of the top of the cross beam plate. The linear lead screw is driven by the first motor. The top of the cross beam plate below the linear lead screw is provided with a guide groove. The mounting base is slidably connected to the guide groove, and the mounting base is threadedly connected to the linear lead screw.

[0010] A further improvement is that a second motor is provided on one side wall of the mounting base, and the winch is driven by the second motor.

[0011] A further improvement is that a through groove is provided on the front side of the top of the cross beam plate, and one end of the sling is led out downward from the through groove.

[0012] A further improvement is that: first columns are symmetrically arranged on the left side wall of the ultrasonic cleaning tank, and the loading tray is rotatably connected to the lower ends of the two first columns via a rotating shaft; second columns are symmetrically arranged on the right side wall of the ultrasonic cleaning tank, and the unloading tray is rotatably connected to the lower ends of the two second columns via a rotating shaft.

[0013] A further improvement is that the loading and unloading trays are magnetically fixed to the upper sides of the left and right walls of the ultrasonic cleaning tank after being flipped over.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model drives the mounting base to move linearly by setting a linear movement mechanism on the support frame at the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank. The automatic lifting mechanism located on the mounting base can lift the cleaning basket equipped with a large number of guide wheels from the loading tray at the bottom to the ultrasonic cleaning tank for ultrasonic cleaning, and can lift the cleaning basket after cleaning in the ultrasonic cleaning tank to the unloading tray for automatic discharge. In this process, there is no need for frequent manual handling of the cleaning basket, resulting in low labor consumption. In addition, the setting of the loading and unloading trays can effectively receive the cleaning water brought out from the ultrasonic cleaning tank, avoiding pollution of the ground environment.

Finally, the cleaning basket 9 is lifted again, and the mounting base 3 is moved above the unloading tray 8 via a linear movement mechanism. Finally, the cleaning basket 9 is lowered to complete one round of cleaning.

[0021] The support frame 2 includes a support beam 201 and a cross beam plate 202. Support beams 201 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 1.
