[0026] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] A surface cleaning device for solid welding wire production, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a housing 1. Multiple input rollers 2 and output rollers 3 are respectively provided on the upper ends of the left and right side walls of the housing 1. A lower cleaning mechanism and an upper cleaning mechanism are arranged sequentially from left to right inside the housing 1. The lower cleaning mechanism includes guide rollers 4 and cleaning frames 5. Two guide rollers 4 are arranged on the left and right sides of the cleaning frame 5, and each guide roller 4 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1. The cleaning frame 5 is provided with cleaning components 6 for cleaning the surface of the welding wire, and the cleaning components 6 are detachably mounted on the cleaning frame 5. The upper cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning box 7. A drain outlet is provided on the left side of the cleaning box 7, and a discharge outlet 8 is provided on the right side of the cleaning box 7 to facilitate the passage of the welding wire. Multiple guide rollers 9 are provided inside the cleaning box 7 to guide the welding wire from left to right, and each guide roller 9 is rotatably mounted inside the cleaning box 7. A circulating water spray assembly is provided on the cleaning box 7 below the discharge outlet 8 to spray water towards the drain outlet. A clean water spray assembly is provided on the housing 1 above the discharge outlet 8. There is a water drop gap between the right side of the cleaning box 7 and the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0028] For example, the guide roller 4, input roller 2, and output roller 3 can all be installed on the housing 1 using a conventional rotating mounting method. The cleaning box 7 is fixed to the housing 1, and the guide roller 9 can also be installed on the cleaning box 7 using a conventional rotating mounting method. By sequentially arranging the input roller 2, guide roller 4, guide roller 9, and output roller 3, the welding wire can be guided, ensuring stable wire transmission.

[0029] Preferably, the circulating water jet assembly includes a jet pipe 10 disposed within the cleaning box 7, with a plurality of jet nozzles 11 on the side of the jet pipe 10 facing the drain outlet; a circulating water pump 18 is disposed on the housing 1, and the jet pipe 10 is connected to the outlet end of the circulating water pump 18 via a connecting pipe 12, and the inlet end of the circulating water pump 18 is connected to the housing 1 via a circulating inlet pipe 13. Exemplarily, the jet pipe 10 is fixed to the cleaning box 7, one end of the circulating water pipe is connected to the housing 1, and the other end is connected to the inlet end of the circulating water pump 18. All of the above pipes can be connected in a conventional manner to achieve pipe connectivity, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0030] In practical applications, the lower cleaning mechanism can perform a primary cleaning of the welding wire. By setting the spray pipe 10 towards the drain outlet, the circulating water pump 18 draws circulating water from the tank 1 and sprays it through the spray pipe 10. This not only provides a secondary cleaning of the welding wire in the cleaning box 7, but also allows the circulating water to flow through the cleaning box 7 and continuously rinse the cleaning rack 5 under the action of gravity. This enables the cleaning components 6 on the cleaning rack 5 to be cleaned and maintained, ensuring that the cleaning components 6 can effectively clean the welding wire for a long time.

[0031] Preferably, a removable filter screen 24 is provided on the housing 1 at the position corresponding to the circulating water inlet pipe 13. Exemplarily, the filter screen 24 can be removably installed on the housing 1 using conventional methods such as screws. Those skilled in the art can select a suitable filter screen 24 according to actual needs to achieve filtration of the circulating water entering the circulating water inlet pipe 13. By setting up the filter screen 24, impurities can be prevented from entering the circulating water inlet pipe 13. Furthermore, the removable installation of the filter screen 24 facilitates maintenance and replacement by operators.

[0032] Preferably, the cleaning rack 5 includes a base frame 20 and a top frame 21. The base frame 20 is mounted on the housing 1, and the top frame 21 is detachably connected to the base frame 20. A receiving gap exists between the top frame 21 and the base frame 20 to accommodate the cleaning component 6. Both the base frame 20 and the top frame 21 have several through holes 25 corresponding to the receiving gap, and each through hole 25 communicates with the receiving gap. For example, the base frame 20 is fixed to the housing 1, and the top frame 21 is detachably mounted on the base frame 20 using conventional methods such as screws. The detachable top frame 21 facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the cleaning component 6 by operators. Simultaneously, by providing through holes 25 on both the top frame 21 and the base frame 20, the circulating water flowing from the cleaning box 7 can directly rinse the cleaning component 6 through the through holes 25, continuously washing away dirt from the cleaning component 6 and ensuring that the cleaning component 6 can continuously provide a good cleaning effect on the welding wire for a long time.

[0033] Preferably, a guide plate 23 is provided on the cleaning box 7 at a position below the drain outlet, and the guide plate 23 has a bent portion facing the cleaning rack 5. For example, the guide plate 23 is fixed on the cleaning box 7. By providing the guide plate 23, the circulating water flowing out of the drain outlet of the cleaning box 7 can flow towards the cleaning rack 5 under the guidance of the guide plate 23, thereby achieving a better rinsing and cleaning effect on the cleaning components 6 on the cleaning rack 5.

[0034] Preferably, the cleaning component 6 is made of iron shavings or fiber cloth, and both the base frame 20 and the top frame 21 are provided with a number of protrusions 22 for limiting the cleaning component 6. By providing multiple protrusions 22, the friction between the surfaces of the top frame 21 and the base frame 20 can be increased, which helps to improve the stability of the cleaning component 6 on the cleaning rack 5.

[0035] Preferably, the bottom of the housing 1 has a sloping section, with the downward-sloping end of the sloping section facing the left side of the housing 1. A drain pipe 14 is located at the bottom of the housing 1 corresponding to the downward-sloping end of the sloping section, and a control valve 15 is provided on the drain pipe 14. Exemplarily, the drain pipe 14 is fixed to the housing 1, and the control valve 15 can be an existing shut-off valve or other valve. The control valve 15 and the drain pipe 14 can be connected in a conventional manner, which will not be elaborated here. In actual use, by providing a sloping section at the bottom of the housing 1, it is beneficial to guide sludge and impurities to flow towards the drain pipe 14, ensuring that the sludge from the circulating water rinsing and cleaning rack 5 and the welding wire can be conveniently discharged through the drain pipe 14, which helps to improve the cleanliness of the circulating water in the housing 1.

[0036] Preferably, the water purification spray assembly includes a spray pipe 16 disposed on the housing 1, and a plurality of nozzles 17 are provided on the side of the spray pipe 16 facing the cleaning box 7. Exemplarily, the spray pipe 16 is fixed to the housing 1, the nozzles 17 are fixed to the spray pipe 16, and the spray pipe 16 can be connected to an external water supply device.

[0037] In practical applications, in addition to using the circulating water in the tank 1 for welding wire cleaning, the spray pipe 16 can also be used to perform final cleaning of the welding wire after the secondary cleaning. This not only helps to improve the cleaning effect of the welding wire, but also replenishes the circulating water in the tank 1, ensuring that the circulating water in the tank 1 can meet the continuous cleaning needs of the welding wire.

[0038] In addition, the spray pipe 16 can also serve as a substitute for the spray pipe 10. Operators can temporarily replace the spray pipe 10 with the spray pipe 16 and stop the circulating water pump 18 to maintain or replace the filter screen 24. This allows the cleaning device to be cleaned and maintained without stopping the machine, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning efficiency of the welding wire.

[0039] Preferably, an ultrasonic generator 19 is installed on the housing 1 at a position corresponding to the lower cleaning mechanism. The ultrasonic generator 19 can be installed on the housing in a conventional manner. The ultrasonic generator 19 realizes ultrasonic vibration, and by utilizing the cavitation, acceleration and direct flow effects of ultrasonic waves in the liquid, it directly and indirectly acts on the liquid and dirt, causing the dirt layer to be dispersed, emulsified and peeled off, thereby achieving the cleaning purpose and improving the cleaning effect of the lower cleaning mechanism.

[0040] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0041] The welding wire moves sequentially through the input roller 2, guide roller 4, cleaning frame 5, guide roller 9, and output roller 3. During this process, the cleaning components 6 on the cleaning frame 5 perform an initial cleaning of the welding wire. Combined with the action of the ultrasonic generator 19, the wire is soaked and cleaned in the lower layer of the housing 1. The cleaned circulating water is filtered through the filter screen 24 and then enters the circulating water pump 18. As the welding wire moves, it enters the cleaning box 7 for a secondary cleaning to remove any residual sludge and impurities from the initial cleaning. The circulating water pump 18 continuously pumps circulating water to the spray pipe 10, which sprays out through the nozzle 11 of the spray pipe 10, continuously rinsing the welding wire. Finally, before the welding wire exits the housing 1 via the output roller 3, it is given a final rinse using external clean water connected to the spray pipe 16. As water is added to the spray pipe 16, the sludge inside the housing 1 is discharged through the drain pipe 14 by controlling the opening of the control valve 15, thus achieving a water level balance within the housing 1.

[0042] This utility model discloses a surface cleaning device for solid welding wire production, which can continuously clean the welding wire for a long time with good cleaning effect, is easy to use and maintain, and helps to improve the continuous production efficiency of welding wire. By setting up an upper cleaning mechanism and a lower cleaning mechanism, not only can continuous multi-stage cleaning of the welding wire be achieved, but the circulating water discharged from the upper cleaning mechanism can also continuously rinse and purify the cleaning components in the lower cleaning mechanism, which helps to improve the continuous cleaning effect of the cleaning components on the welding wire and ensures that the cleaning components can play a good cleaning role for the welding wire for a long time.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
