Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of metal barrel production equipment, specifically relating to a metal barrel body cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Metal drums, with their excellent sealing and impact resistance, are widely used as storage containers for various liquids. During the manufacturing process, the metal sheet undergoes a series of processes including cutting, rolling, straight-seam welding, and ribbing to complete the drum body. After cutting, rolling, and ribbing, the metal drum body is prone to accumulating dirt. During straight-seam welding, a significant amount of weld slag and burrs are easily generated. Therefore, to improve the cleanliness and smoothness of the metal drum body, it is necessary to perform a cleaning process after these steps.
[0003] Traditionally, cleaning metal drums is done manually using cleaning tools. However, manual cleaning is time-consuming, labor-intensive, slow, and inefficient, failing to meet the requirements of mass production. Therefore, various metal drum cleaning devices have been designed and manufactured to replace manual operation. For example, utility model patent CN214080543U discloses an automatic drum wall cleaning device for metal drum production, including a worktable and a rotating shaft. An upper support plate is fixedly installed on one side of the upper surface of the worktable, and a drive motor is fixedly installed on one side of the upper support plate. A grinding rotating ring is fixedly sleeved at the output end of the drive motor. A telescopic rod is movably sleeved on the side of the grinding rotating ring, and a grinding shell is fixedly installed at the top of the telescopic rod. A grinding sanding plate is fixedly installed on the outer side of the grinding shell.
[0004] This invention incorporates an adaptive spring inside the grinding rotating ring, connecting it to the bottom of a telescopic rod, thus enabling the rod to rise and fall. During use, the grinding diameter automatically adjusts according to the diameter of the metal bucket, improving the device's versatility. Furthermore, the separate design of the grinding shell and the grinding plate allows for direct replacement of the worn grinding plate, further enhancing practicality. However, this invention can only clean the inner wall of the metal bucket, not its outer wall. Therefore, improvements to the existing technology are necessary. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments, and are only used to illustrate this utility model, and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall be followed. Where the manufacturers of reagents or instruments are not specified, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.
[0025] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a metal barrel body cleaning device includes a conveying mechanism 1, an internal cleaning mechanism 2 on one side of the conveying mechanism 1, a lifting mechanism 3 on the other side of the conveying mechanism 1, and an external cleaning mechanism 4 above the conveying mechanism 1, the external cleaning mechanism 4 being connected to the lifting mechanism 3.
[0026] The external cleaning mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 401, on which two parallel first rollers 402 are rotatably mounted. The axis of the first rollers 402 is parallel to the axis of the metal drum. A cleaning component is detachably mounted on the outer surface of the first rollers 402. The cleaning component cooperates with the outer surface of the metal drum. Specifically, the cleaning component can be sandpaper, polishing cloth, or grinding brush, etc., for cleaning stains, welding slag, and burrs on the surface of the metal drum.
[0027] Below the conveying mechanism 1 is a driving mechanism 5, which cooperates with the outer surface of the metal barrel. The driving mechanism 5 is used to drive the metal barrel to rotate. The cleaning component is attached to the outer wall of the metal barrel and rotates relative to it, so that the outer wall of the metal barrel can be cleaned.
[0028] The internal cleaning mechanism 2 includes a first mounting base 201. A circular mounting plate 202 is fixedly mounted on one end face of the first mounting base 201. A sliding rod 203 is axially slidably provided on the mounting plate 202, passing through the mounting plate 202 and the first mounting base 201. A plurality of expansion blocks 204 are evenly provided around the sliding rod 203. The expansion blocks 204 are connected to the sliding rod by two parallel connecting rods 205 of equal length. Specifically, one end of the connecting rod 205 is rotatably connected to the expansion block 204, and the other end of the connecting rod 205... The end is rotatably connected to the sliding rod 203, and the two connecting rods 205 keep the sliding rod 203 and the expansion block 204 in a parallel state. Multiple T-slots 206 are provided radially on the end face of the mounting plate 202. One end of the expansion block 204 is slidably connected to the T-slots 206. The T-slots 206 are used to restrict the expansion block 204 from sliding in the radial direction of the mounting plate 202 and to provide force support for the expansion block 204. A cleaning component is detachably installed on the outer surface of the expansion block 204, and the outer surface of the cleaning component matches the inner surface of the metal bucket.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, when the sliding rod 203 slides to the left, the angle between the connecting rod 205 and the central axis of the sliding rod 203 decreases, and multiple expansion blocks 204 contract synchronously towards the center. At this time, the outer dimensions of multiple cleaning components are smaller than the inner diameter of the metal barrel, so the expansion blocks 204 can easily extend into or exit from the metal barrel. When the sliding rod 203 slides to the right, the angle between the connecting rod 205 and the central axis of the sliding rod 203 increases, and multiple expansion blocks 204 expand synchronously outward. The cleaning components on the expansion blocks 204 abut against the inner wall of the metal barrel, thus cleaning the inner wall of the metal barrel.
[0030] In this embodiment, a hydraulic cylinder 207 is fixedly mounted on the end of the first mounting base 201 away from the mounting plate 202, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 207 is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding rod 203. When the hydraulic cylinder 207 extends, it drives the sliding rod 203 to slide to the left; when the hydraulic cylinder 207 retracts, it drives the sliding rod 203 to slide to the right.
[0031] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 1 includes a conveying chain 101, on which a plurality of tooling bases 102 for carrying metal buckets are provided at intervals. The conveying chain 101 is driven by an external power source and drives the tooling bases 102 and the metal buckets to move.
[0032] In this embodiment, a second mounting base 208 is also included. A second guide rail 209 is fixedly mounted on the second mounting base 208. The extension direction of the second guide rail 209 is parallel to the axis of the metal barrel body. A lead screw 211 is rotatably mounted on the second mounting base 208. A slider 210 is slidably mounted on the second guide rail 209. A first mounting base 201 is fixedly mounted on the slider 210. The slider 210 and the lead screw 211 are threadedly connected. A second motor 212 is fixedly mounted on the second mounting base 208. The output shaft of the second motor 212 is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 211. The second motor 212 drives the lead screw 211 to rotate, and the lead screw 211 drives the slider 210 to move along the second guide rail 209, thereby driving the internal cleaning mechanism 2 to move forward or backward.
[0033] In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 5 includes a third mounting base 501, on which two parallel second rollers 502 are rotatably mounted. The outer wall of the metal bucket engages with the two second rollers 502. Specifically, the outer wall of the metal bucket contacts the outer walls of the two second rollers 502. One end of one of the second rollers 502 is fixedly connected to a first pulley 503. A fourth motor 504 is fixedly mounted on the third mounting base 501, and a second pulley 505 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the fourth motor 504. The first pulley 503 and the second pulley 505 are connected by a belt 506. When the fourth motor 504 rotates, it drives the second rollers 502 to rotate, and the second rollers 502 drive the metal bucket body to rotate.
[0034] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 3 includes a vertical arm 301, on which two vertical first guide rails 302 are spaced apart. A rack 303 is fixedly connected to the inner side of one of the first guide rails 302, and a first mounting plate 304 is slidably connected to the outer sides of the two first guide rails 302. A first motor 305 is fixedly mounted on the first mounting plate 304, and a first gear 306 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 305. The rack 303 meshes with the first gear 306. A mounting bracket 401 is fixedly mounted on the first mounting plate 304. The first motor 305 drives the first gear 306 to rotate, and drives the first mounting plate 304 to move up and down along the first guide rails 302, thereby driving the external cleaning mechanism 4 to move up and down.
[0035] In this embodiment, a second mounting plate 307 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 302. The second mounting plate 307 is located below the first mounting plate 304. A third motor 308 is fixedly mounted on the second mounting plate 307. A second gear 309 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the third motor 308. The second gear 309 meshes with a rack 303. A third mounting base 501 is fixedly connected to the second mounting plate 307. The third motor 308 drives the second gear 309 to rotate, and drives the second mounting plate 307 to move up and down along the first guide rail 302, thereby driving the third mounting base 501 to move up and down.
[0036] In this embodiment, the metal drum is placed horizontally on the tooling base 102 and moves with the conveyor chain 101. When the metal drum moves to below the external cleaning mechanism 4, the conveyor chain 101 stops moving. The second motor 212 drives the lead screw 211 to rotate. The lead screw 211 drives the slider 210 to move along the second guide rail 209, which in turn drives the internal cleaning mechanism 2 forward until the expansion block 204 extends into the metal drum body. The hydraulic cylinder 207 retracts, causing the sliding rod 203 to slide to the right. The angle between the connecting rod 205 and the central axis of the sliding rod 203 increases, and the expansion block 204 expands outward, causing the cleaning component to abut against the inner wall of the metal drum. The first motor 305 drives the first mounting plate 304 to move downward along the first guide rail 302, thereby driving the external cleaning mechanism 4 to move downward until the cleaning components on the two first rollers 402 abut against the metal barrel body. The third motor 308 drives the second mounting plate 307 to move upward along the first guide rail 302, thereby driving the drive mechanism 5 to move upward until the two second rollers 502 abut against the metal barrel body. The two first rollers 402 and the two second rollers 502 together radially limit the metal barrel body and make the axis of the metal barrel body coincide with the axis of the sliding rod 203, avoiding unstable rotation of the metal barrel. The fourth motor 504 drives the second rollers 502 to rotate, and the rotation of the second rollers 502 drives the metal barrel body to rotate. At this time, the cleaning components on the expansion block 204 and the cleaning components on the two first rollers 402 rotate relative to the metal barrel body, thereby cleaning the inner and outer walls of the metal barrel.
[0037] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
