Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of alumina crucible technology, and specifically to a cleaning device for alumina crucibles. Background Technology

[0002] Alumina crucibles are widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, scientific research and other fields due to their high temperature resistance and strong chemical stability. However, after use, the inner wall of the crucible is prone to residual molten material, chemical reagents and other impurities, so it is necessary to clean it in time to ensure the accuracy and safety of secondary use.

[0003] The aforementioned problems are as follows: Traditional cleaning methods mainly suffer from the following issues: First, during manual cleaning, operators need to use brushes, sponges, and other tools to wipe the inside of each crucible individually, which is not only labor-intensive and inefficient but also makes it difficult to ensure consistent cleaning results. Second, existing mechanical cleaning equipment, such as spray cleaning machines, often cannot penetrate the interior of multiple crucibles due to limitations in nozzle layout and cleaning fluid spray angle, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the inner walls. With the expansion of alumina crucible usage scenarios and the increase in usage frequency, developing a device capable of simultaneously performing deep cleaning of the inner walls of multiple alumina crucibles has become an urgent need to improve cleaning efficiency, reduce labor costs, and ensure the performance of crucibles. Therefore, a cleaning device for alumina crucibles is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning device for alumina crucibles to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A cleaning device for alumina crucibles includes a fixed plate and alumina crucibles. A rotating assembly for rotating and cleaning multiple alumina crucibles is disposed on the top of the fixed plate. The rotating assembly includes a rotating rod whose outer wall is rotatably connected to the interior of the fixed plate. A fixed block is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate, and a mounting block is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed block. A first motor is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting block. A worm gear is rotatably connected to the interior of the fixed block. A worm wheel is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and the outer wall of the worm wheel meshes with one side of the worm gear. A rotating block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and the interior of the rotating block contacts the outer wall of the alumina crucibles. A positioning assembly for positioning the alumina crucibles is disposed on the outer wall of the rotating block. A cleaning assembly for cleaning the alumina crucibles is disposed on the top of the fixed plate.

[0007] The above technical solution involves the coordinated operation of a first motor, a worm gear, a worm wheel, and a rotating block. The first motor drives the worm gear to rotate, and through the meshing transmission of the worm wheel and worm gear, the rotating rod and the rotating block rotate, causing the alumina crucible to rotate accordingly. This achieves multi-angle cleaning. Compared with traditional static cleaning, rotary cleaning allows the cleaning fluid and cleaning brush to fully contact all parts of the crucible, improving cleaning efficiency and cleanliness.

[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that the cleaning assembly includes a protective box, the bottom of the protective box and the top of the fixing plate are fixedly connected, an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective box, and a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod.

[0009] The above technical solution involves the coordinated use of a protective box, an electric push rod, and a connecting frame. The electric push rod inside the protective box is telescopic, which drives the connecting frame to move up and down, thereby flexibly adjusting the height of the cleaning brush. Whether cleaning alumina crucibles of different heights or adjusting the cleaning position at different stages of cleaning, precise control can be achieved through the electric push rod, improving the applicability of the cleaning device.

[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a drive rod and a linkage rod are rotatably connected inside the connecting frame; a cleaning brush is fixedly connected to the outer wall of both the linkage rod and the drive rod; the outer wall of the cleaning brush contacts the inner wall of the alumina crucible; a protective shell is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame; a second motor is fixedly installed inside the protective shell; and the output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive rod.

[0011] The above technical solution involves the coordinated operation of a drive rod, a linkage rod, a protective shell, and a second motor. The second motor drives the drive rod to rotate, which in turn drives the cleaning brush to rotate, thus powerfully scrubbing the alumina crucible. The linkage rod rotates synchronously with the drive rod via a synchronous wheel and a transmission belt, allowing both sets of cleaning brushes to work simultaneously, improving cleaning efficiency and ensuring that the stains inside the crucible are effectively removed.

[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a synchronous wheel is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drive rod, and a transmission belt is internally connected to the synchronous wheel; the outer wall of another set of synchronous wheels is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the linkage rod.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the synchronous pulley, transmission belt and linkage rod are set up to cooperate with each other. The transmission method of the synchronous pulley and transmission belt ensures that the drive rod and linkage rod rotate synchronously, so that the speed and direction of rotation of the two cleaning brushes are the same. This not only avoids uneven cleaning caused by the difference in speed, but also enhances the stability of the cleaning process, prevents the cleaning brush from being damaged due to uneven force, and extends its service life.

[0014] A further improvement of the present invention is that the positioning component includes a connecting block, the outer wall of the connecting block and the outer wall of the rotating block are fixedly connected, a screw is threadedly connected to the inside of the connecting block, a clamping plate is fixedly connected to one end of the screw, and the inside of the clamping plate is in contact with the outer wall of the alumina crucible.

[0015] The above technical solution involves the cooperation of a connecting block, a screw, and a clamping plate. By rotating the screw, the screw and the connecting block are driven by a thread, which moves the clamping plate. The position of the clamping plate can be precisely adjusted according to the outer diameter of the alumina crucible, so that it fits tightly against the outer wall of the crucible. This achieves stable clamping of the crucible, prevents it from shifting or shaking during the rotation cleaning process, and ensures the cleaning effect and safety.

[0016] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a sliding groove is provided inside the connecting block, a slider is slidably connected inside the sliding groove, the top of the slider is fixedly connected to the bottom of the clamping plate, and a rotating block is fixedly connected to the other end of the screw.

[0017] The above technical solution utilizes the interaction of a sliding groove, a sliding block, and a rotating block. The sliding groove within the connecting block engages with the sliding block to provide stable guidance for the movement of the clamping plate. When the clamping plate position is adjusted by rotating the screw, the sliding block slides along the sliding groove, ensuring smooth movement of the clamping plate and preventing tilting or jamming. This allows the clamping plate to accurately and reliably fix the alumina crucible.

[0018] A further improvement of this utility model is that a limiting frame is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate, and the interior of the limiting frame is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0019] The above technical solution involves the cooperation of a fixed plate, a limiting frame, and a rotating rod. The limiting frame provides stable support for the rotating rod, ensuring its stability during rotation and reducing swaying. With the support of the limiting frame, the rotating rod can smoothly drive the rotating block and crucible to rotate, ensuring the stability of the rotation cleaning process and making the cleaning operation more precise and efficient.

[0020] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical progress achieved by this utility model compared with the prior art is as follows: compared with traditional static cleaning, rotary cleaning allows the cleaning liquid and cleaning brush to fully contact all parts of the crucible, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and cleanliness.

[0021] 1. This utility model provides a cleaning device for alumina crucibles. By setting up a first motor, a worm, a worm wheel and a rotating block in cooperation, the first motor drives the worm to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the worm wheel and worm, the rotating rod and the rotating block are driven to rotate, so that the alumina crucible rotates accordingly, realizing multi-angle cleaning. Compared with traditional static cleaning, rotational cleaning allows the cleaning liquid and cleaning brush to fully contact all parts of the crucible, improving cleaning efficiency and cleanliness.

[0022] 2. This utility model provides a cleaning device for alumina crucibles. By setting up a protective box, an electric push rod and a connecting frame in cooperation, the electric push rod in the protective box can be extended and retracted, driving the connecting frame to move up and down, thereby flexibly adjusting the height of the cleaning brush. Whether cleaning alumina crucibles of different heights or adjusting the cleaning position at different stages of cleaning, precise control can be achieved through the electric push rod, improving the applicability of the cleaning device.

[0023] 3. This utility model provides a cleaning device for alumina crucibles. By setting up a connecting block, a screw, and a clamping plate in cooperation, the screw is rotated and driven by the threaded transmission between the screw and the connecting block, which drives the clamping plate to move. The position of the clamping plate can be precisely adjusted according to the outer diameter of the alumina crucible, so that it fits tightly against the outer wall of the crucible, achieving stable clamping of the crucible and preventing the crucible from shifting or shaking during the rotation cleaning process, thus ensuring the cleaning effect and safety.

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0031] Example 1

[0032] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a cleaning device for alumina crucibles, including a fixed plate 1 and alumina crucibles 2. A rotating assembly for rotating and cleaning multiple alumina crucibles 2 is provided on the top of the fixed plate 1. The rotating assembly includes a rotating rod 3, the outer wall of which is rotatably connected to the interior of the fixed plate 1. A fixed block 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 1, and a mounting block 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed block 4. A first motor 6 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting block 5. A worm gear 7 is rotatably connected to the interior of the fixed block 4, and a worm wheel 8 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 3. The outer wall of the worm gear 8 meshes with one side of the worm 7. The outer wall of the rotating rod 3 is fixedly connected to a rotating block 9. The interior of the rotating block 9 is in contact with the outer wall of the alumina crucible 2. The outer wall of the rotating block 9 is provided with a positioning component for positioning the alumina crucible 2. The top of the fixed plate 1 is provided with a cleaning component for cleaning the alumina crucible 2. The cleaning component includes a protective box 10. The bottom of the protective box 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 1. The inner wall of the protective box 10 is fixedly connected to an electric push rod 11. The output end of the electric push rod 11 is fixedly connected to a connecting frame 12.

[0033] In this embodiment, by setting up the cooperation of the first motor 6, worm 7, worm wheel 8 and rotating block 9, the first motor 6 drives the worm 7 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the worm wheel 8 and worm 7, the rotating rod 3 and rotating block 9 are driven to rotate, so that the alumina crucible 2 rotates accordingly, realizing multi-angle cleaning. Compared with traditional static cleaning, rotational cleaning allows the cleaning liquid and cleaning brush 15 to fully contact all parts of the crucible, improving cleaning efficiency and cleanliness. By setting up the cooperation of the protective box 10, electric push rod 11 and connecting frame 12, the electric push rod 11 in the protective box 10 can be extended and retracted, driving the connecting frame 12 to move up and down, thereby flexibly adjusting the height of the cleaning brush 15. Whether cleaning alumina crucible 2 of different heights or adjusting the cleaning position at different stages of cleaning, precise control can be achieved through the electric push rod 11, improving the applicability of the cleaning device.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] like Figure 1-5As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, a drive rod 13 and a linkage rod 14 are rotatably connected inside the connecting frame 12. Cleaning brushes 15 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both the linkage rod 14 and the drive rod 13. The outer wall of the cleaning brushes 15 contacts the inner wall of the alumina crucible 2. A protective shell 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 12. A second motor 17 is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 16. The output end of the second motor 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive rod 13. A synchronous pulley 18 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drive rod 13. A transmission belt 19 is internally connected to the synchronous pulley 18. The outer wall of another set of synchronous pulleys 18... The positioning assembly includes a connecting block 20, whose outer wall is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating block 9. A screw 21 is threadedly connected inside the connecting block 20. A clamping plate 22 is fixedly connected to one end of the screw 21. The inside of the clamping plate 22 contacts the outer wall of the alumina crucible 2. A sliding groove 23 is opened inside the connecting block 20. A slider 24 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 23. The top of the slider 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the clamping plate 22. A rotating block 25 is fixedly connected to the other end of the screw 21. A limit frame 26 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 1. The inside of the limit frame 26 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 3.

[0036] In this embodiment, by setting up the drive rod 13, linkage rod 14, protective shell 16, and second motor 17 in cooperation, the second motor 17 drives the drive rod 13 to rotate, and the drive rod 13 drives the cleaning brush 15 to rotate, performing powerful scrubbing on the alumina crucible 2. The linkage rod 14 rotates synchronously with the drive rod 13 through the synchronous pulley 18 and transmission belt 19, so that the two sets of cleaning brushes 15 work simultaneously, improving cleaning efficiency and ensuring that the stains inside the crucible are effectively removed. The coordinated operation of the synchronous pulley 18 and the transmission belt 19 ensures that the drive rod 13 and the linkage rod 14 rotate synchronously, making the rotation speed and direction of the two cleaning brushes 15 consistent. This not only avoids uneven cleaning caused by differences in rotation speed, but also enhances the stability of the cleaning process, prevents damage to the cleaning brushes 15 due to uneven force, and extends their service life. Through the coordinated operation of the connecting block 20, the screw 21, and the clamping plate 22, the screw 21 rotates, and the screw 21 is threadedly driven with the connecting block 20, driving the clamping plate 22. 2. The position of the clamping plate 22 can be precisely adjusted according to the outer diameter of the alumina crucible 2, ensuring a tight fit against the outer wall of the crucible and achieving stable clamping. This prevents the crucible from shifting or shaking during the rotation cleaning process, ensuring both cleaning effectiveness and safety. The clamping plate 22 is moved by the cooperation of the sliding groove 23, the slider 24, and the rotating block 25. The sliding groove 23 in the connecting block 20 engages with the slider 24, providing stable guidance for the movement of the clamping plate 22. When the screw 21 is rotated to adjust the position of the clamping plate 22, the slider 24 moves along the sliding groove 25. 3. Sliding ensures that the clamping plate 22 moves smoothly and avoids tilting or jamming, so that the clamping plate 22 can accurately and reliably fix the alumina crucible 2. Through the cooperation of the fixing plate 1, the limiting frame 26 and the rotating rod 3, the limiting frame 26 provides a stable support for the rotating rod 3, ensuring that the rotating rod 3 remains stable during rotation and reducing shaking. Under the support of the limiting frame 26, the rotating rod 3 can smoothly drive the rotating block 9 and the crucible to rotate, ensuring the stability of the rotation cleaning process and making the cleaning operation more accurate and efficient.

[0037] The working principle of the cleaning device for the alumina crucible 2 will be explained in detail below.

[0038] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the alumina crucible 2 is placed inside the rotating block 9. The operator rotates the rotating block 25 at one end of the screw 21 in the positioning assembly. The screw 21 and the connecting block 20 are threadedly driven, which drives the clamping plate 22 to move. The slider 24 at the bottom of the clamping plate 22 slides in the groove 23 inside the connecting block 20 to ensure smooth movement until the clamping plate 22 is tightly attached to the outer wall of the crucible, thus fixing the crucible securely.

[0039] The first motor 6 on the top of the mounting block 5 is started, which drives the worm 7 inside the fixed block 4 to rotate. Since the worm 7 meshes with the worm wheel 8 on the outer wall of the rotating rod 3, the rotation of the worm 7 drives the worm wheel 8 and the rotating rod 3 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating block 9 and the crucible to rotate. At the same time, the limiting frame 26 on the top of the fixed plate 1 provides support for the rotating rod 3 to ensure the stability of the rotation process.

[0040] Once the crucible begins to rotate, the cleaning assembly is activated. The electric push rod 11 inside the protective housing 10 extends and retracts, causing the connecting frame 12 to rise and fall, adjusting the cleaning brush 15 to a suitable height. Subsequently, the second motor 17 inside the protective shell 16 starts, driving the drive rod 13 to rotate. The synchronous wheel 18 on the outer wall of the drive rod 13 drives the linkage rod 14 to rotate synchronously via the transmission belt 19, causing the cleaning brushes 15 on the drive rod 13 and linkage rod 14 to rotate simultaneously. During the rotation, the two sets of cleaning brushes 15 thoroughly clean the rotating alumina crucible 2. Through the cooperation of the rotating assembly and the cleaning assembly, the surface stains of the crucible are efficiently removed, completing the entire cleaning process.

[0041] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
