Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning and drying technology, and in particular to a device for removing water droplets from the surface of a product after cleaning. Background Technology
[0002] In square lithium batteries, metal materials such as cover plates, positive and negative electrode connecting pieces, and sealing aluminum nails are stamped and formed. Stamping lubricant adheres to the surface of the parts. When cleaning the oil stains with cleaning equipment, water droplets will be attached to the product surface. Personnel need to use compressed air to remove the surface water droplets to ensure that water droplets do not remain on the surface of the parts.
[0003] If water droplets remain on the surface of the parts after cleaning, they will form watermarks on the product surface after baking, causing the product to be scrapped, increasing the defect rate and production costs!
[0004] Currently, the existing cleaning method involves cleaning the product with equipment, removing it, and then having workers use compressed air to remove water droplets from the surface of the parts. This method has three drawbacks: First, it requires an extra step in the cleaning process, resulting in low efficiency, increased cleaning cycle time, and high time costs; second, the manual operation using compressed air leaves some residue that cannot be completely blown away, leading to a high product scrap rate; and third, the workers are engaged in manual operation continuously after the initial cleaning, resulting in high labor intensity.
[0005] Therefore, a device is needed to remove water droplets from the surface of a product after cleaning in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] This invention addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing a device for removing water droplets from the surface of a product after cleaning.

[0026] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0027] like Figures 1-5 As shown, an apparatus for removing water droplets from the surface of a product after cleaning includes a drying chamber 2 and a drying chamber 1, with the drying chamber 1 located at the rear end of the drying chamber 2. The drying chamber 2 includes a frame 21, inside which multiple parallel conveyor rollers 22 are installed. The multiple conveyor rollers 22 are connected to a motor via a transmission component, and the motor drives the multiple conveyor rollers 22 to rotate synchronously. Stamped parts are placed in a cleaning basket 5, and the cleaning basket 5 is placed on the conveyor rollers 22. The conveyor rollers 22 then transport the cleaning basket 5 and the stamped parts into the drying chamber 2, and subsequently into the drying chamber 1.
[0028] A water receiving trough 26 is provided at the bottom of the conveyor roller 22. The water receiving trough 26 is fixed on the frame 21. A drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the water receiving trough 26, and a water collection tank 3 is placed below the drain outlet. Four air pipe supports 23 are provided on the upper side of the conveyor roller 22. The air pipe supports 23 are fixed on the frame 21, and all four air pipe supports 23 are arranged parallel to the conveyor roller 22. Multiple air pipes 24 are fixed on the air pipe supports 23 at equal intervals. One end of the air pipe 24 is connected to a high-pressure air source, and the other end (lower end) of the air pipe 24 is connected to a nozzle 25. Specifically, the upper end of the nozzle 25 is provided with a threaded connector 251, and the lower end of the air pipe 24 has an internal thread. The threaded connector 251 is threadedly connected to the air pipe 24. The nozzle 25 is made of stainless steel and is perpendicular to the conveyor table surface.
[0029] The nozzle 25 includes a blowing chamber 252, the cross-section of which decreases from top to bottom to increase the blowing air pressure. A row of blowing pipes 253 is connected to the lower end of the blowing chamber 252, with multiple blowing pipes 253 arranged equidistantly. A duct support 254 is fixed to the lower end of the blowing chamber 252, through which the lower ends of the blowing pipes 253 pass, ensuring the stability of each blowing pipe 253. The outlet ends of the blowing pipes 253 are parallelly blocked by the duct support 254 on both sides, ensuring a uniform distribution of airflow from each blowing pipe 253 and preventing any product from being missed.
[0030] A control box 4 is installed on the side of the drying chamber 2. The control box 4 can control the blowing time and is connected to the table sensor on the frame 21. When the cleaning basket 5 containing the product is placed in, the conveyor roller 22 transports the cleaning basket 5 to the designated position. The sensor transmits the signal to the control box 4, and the top blowing nozzle 25 starts to operate. The blown water flows into the bottom water receiving tank 26. The water receiving tank 26 is leaky and finally guides the water into the water receiving tank 3. After the water receiving tank 3 receives a certain amount of water, it can be removed in time.
[0031] Working principle: The staff places the washed products in the washing machine along with the washing basket 5 directly onto the conveyor roller and transports them to the designated position. With the cooperation of the sensor and the control box 4, the air pipe valve opens and the blower nozzle 25 starts working to dry the water droplets attached to the products. The water droplets flow into the water receiving tank 26 and are then guided into the water receiving box 3. After the blowing time set by the control box 4 is completed, the blowing work ends, and the conveyor roller continues to send the products forward until they are delivered to the drying chamber 1.
