Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stainless steel wire cleaning technology, and in particular to a stainless steel wire surface cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Stainless steel wire, also known as stainless steel cord, is a type of wire product made from stainless steel in various specifications and models. After production, stainless steel wire needs to be cleaned to remove contaminants from its surface, allowing for better storage and use.
[0003] Most existing stainless steel wire surface cleaning devices use steel wire brushes to clean the surface of the stainless steel wire. In order to avoid damaging the stainless steel wire during the cleaning process, the steel wire brushes are often used to clean along the axial direction of the stainless steel wire. Since the stainless steel wire does not rotate during the cleaning process, the steel wire brushes can usually only cover a part of the outer circle of the stainless steel wire, making it difficult to clean the entire circumference at the same time, resulting in poor overall cleaning effect.
[0004] To address this issue, we have designed a stainless steel wire surface cleaning device to provide an alternative technical solution. Utility Model Content
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a stainless steel wire surface cleaning device that facilitates thorough cleaning of the circumference of stainless steel wire, addressing the aforementioned technical problems.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A stainless steel wire surface cleaning device includes a housing, an annular airbag is disposed inside the housing, and a friction element is disposed on the inner surface of the airbag. The friction element is used to abut against the stainless steel wire and isolate the airbag from the stainless steel wire.
[0008] Preferably, the device further includes a plurality of annular mounting blocks disposed within the housing. The airbag is fixedly disposed on the inner surface of the annular mounting block. An air inlet pipe is disposed at the top of the airbag. The air inlet pipe passes through the annular mounting block and is connected to an inflation pipe. The inflation pipe is fixedly disposed on the housing and one end of it passes through the side wall of the housing and extends to the outside of the housing.
[0009] Preferably, a plurality of mounting shaft blocks are provided below the inflation tube, wherein the mounting shaft blocks located on both sides are fixedly mounted on the side wall of the cleaning chamber, and the remaining mounting shaft blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inflation tube, and a slot is provided on one side of each pair of opposite mounting shaft blocks.
[0010] Preferably, the annular mounting block has mounting holes on both sides, and a locking block matching the locking groove is slidably engaged in the mounting hole. A handle for easy pulling is fixedly provided at the top of the locking block, and a compression spring is fixedly connected to the side of the locking block away from the locking groove. The end of the compression spring away from the locking block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole.
[0011] Preferably, the chamber contains a soaking chamber, a cleaning chamber, a washing chamber, and a drying chamber in sequence. Each of the four chambers is equipped with a winding shaft to facilitate the guidance of the stainless steel wire. The winding shaft located in the soaking chamber, washing chamber, and drying chamber is equipped with an annular guide block to restrict the winding position of the stainless steel wire. Both sides of multiple chambers are equipped with guide rings to facilitate the passage of the stainless steel wire. The guide rings, winding shafts, and annular guide blocks are all used to guide the stainless steel wire, so that the stainless steel wire travels along an S-shaped path in the chamber and is eventually guided out of the chamber.
[0012] Preferably, the drying chamber is equipped with a drying module for drying the surface of the stainless steel wire.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the soaking chamber and the cleaning chamber are provided with waste liquid outlets for discharging soaking waste liquid and cleaning waste liquid.
[0014] It is clear without a doubt that the technical solution described above in this application can solve the technical problem that this application aims to address.
[0015] At the same time, through the above technical solutions, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. The stainless steel wire surface cleaning device provided by this utility model utilizes an airbag to expand, causing the friction element arranged in a ring on the inner surface of the airbag to come into contact with the surface of the stainless steel wire. This cleans the contaminants attached to the surface of the stainless steel wire during the winding process, solving the problem that steel wire brushes are difficult to clean the entire circumference and have poor cleaning effect.
[0017] 2. The stainless steel wire surface cleaning device provided by this utility model utilizes the design of an soaking chamber, a cleaning chamber, a washing chamber, and a drying chamber. The stainless steel wire is first soaked in the soaking chamber, allowing the cleaning solution in the soaking chamber to fully penetrate the surface of the stainless steel wire. After soaking, the stainless steel wire is then transported to the cleaning chamber for physical cleaning, removing oil, oxides, and particulate impurities adhering to the surface of the stainless steel wire. Then, it is transported to the washing chamber for washing, allowing the cleaning solution, oil, oxide debris, and particulate impurities adhering to the surface of the stainless steel wire to fall off. Finally, it enters the drying chamber for drying treatment, thus obtaining a dry and clean stainless steel wire. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0027] Example
[0028] Reference Figure 1-6 A stainless steel wire surface cleaning device includes a housing 1, in which multiple airbags 2 with annular cross-sections are arranged. Friction elements 3 are arranged on the inner surface of the airbags 2. The friction elements 3 are used to abut against the stainless steel wire and isolate the airbags 2 from the stainless steel wire. The friction elements 3 are composed of multiple wear-resistant steel balls, which are arranged in multiple rows and staggered on the inner surface of the airbags 2.
[0029] It should be noted that the projection of the multiple rows of staggered wear-resistant steel balls on the inner surface of the airbag 2 is close to a circle, so that the wear-resistant steel balls can completely abut against the outer surface of the stainless steel wire. Thus, during the winding of the stainless steel wire, the wear-resistant steel balls are used to clean the oxides and particulate impurities attached to the surface of the stainless steel wire, thereby completely solving the problem of cleaning dead corners when using steel wire brushes to clean stainless steel wire, and effectively improving the cleaning effect of stainless steel wire.
[0030] Reference Figure 4-6 It also includes multiple annular mounting blocks 4 evenly arranged in the width direction of the box body 1. The airbag 2 is fixedly installed on the inner ring surface of the annular mounting block 4. The top of the airbag 2 is provided with an air inlet pipe 5. The air inlet pipe 5 passes through the annular mounting block 4 and is connected to an inflation pipe 6. The inflation pipe 6 is fixedly installed on the box body 1 and one end of it passes through the side wall of the box body 1 and extends to the outside of the box body 1.
[0031] It should be noted that a sealing rubber ring is provided at the top of the air intake pipe 5. When the air intake pipe 5 is inserted into the inflation pipe 6, the elastic deformation of the sealing rubber ring allows it to fit tightly against the inner wall of the air intake pipe 5. This prevents air from leaking out from the gap between the air intake pipe 5 and the inflation pipe 6 when the airbag 2 is inflated using the air intake pipe 5. At the same time, the insertion and connection between the air intake pipe 5 and the inflation pipe 6 facilitates the replacement of the annular mounting block 4 when the wear-resistant steel balls in the inner ring of the airbag 2 are severely worn or the airbag 2 is damaged and leaking air. This ensures that the wear-resistant steel balls always have a good cleaning effect on the stainless steel wire.
[0032] In use, an external air pump is connected to one end of the inflation tube 6 that extends out of the box 1, so that air flows from the inflation tube 6 into multiple air inlet tubes 5 to inflate multiple airbags 2. The airbags 2 expand so that multiple wear-resistant steel balls fixed on the inner surface of the airbags 2 gradually move toward the stainless steel wire and come into contact with the surface of the stainless steel wire. Then, the stainless steel wire passing through the airbags 2 is wound around, so that the wear-resistant steel balls can clean the oxides and particulate impurities attached to the surface of the stainless steel wire.
[0033] Reference Figure 5-6 The air tube 6 is provided with multiple mounting shaft blocks 7 below it. The mounting shaft blocks 7 located on both sides are fixedly installed on the side wall of the cleaning chamber 14, and the remaining mounting shaft blocks 7 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the air tube 6. The mounting shaft blocks 7 have slots 8 on opposite sides.
[0034] Reference Figure 5 The annular mounting block 4 has mounting holes 9 on both sides. A locking block 10 that matches the locking groove 8 is slidably locked in the mounting hole 9. A handle 11 that is easy to pull is fixedly set on the top of the locking block 10. A compression spring 12 is fixedly connected to the side of the locking block 10 away from the locking groove 8. The end of the compression spring 12 away from the locking block 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole 9.
[0035] When installing the annular mounting block 4, simply grip the handles 11 on both sides of the annular mounting block 4, so that the locking block 10 fixedly connected to the bottom of the handle 11 moves closer to the airbag 2 and squeezes the compression spring 12. After the locking block 10 is fully retracted into the mounting hole 9, insert the air inlet pipe 5 set at the top of the annular mounting block 4 into the inflation pipe 6, and align the locking block 10 with the slot 8 opened on the mounting shaft block 7. Then release the gripped handle 11, and the locking block 10 will be inserted into the slot 8 under the action of the compression spring 12. At this time, the annular mounting block 4 will be fixed on the mounting shaft block 7.
[0036] When the wear-resistant steel balls on the annular mounting block 4 are severely worn or the airbag 2 is damaged and leaking air, you can hold the handles 11 on both sides of the annular mounting block 4 to move the locking block 10 fixedly connected to the bottom of the handle 11 towards the airbag 2 and squeeze the compression spring 12. After the locking block 10 is fully retracted into the mounting hole 9, the air inlet pipe 5 set at the top of the annular mounting block 4 can be pulled out from the inflation pipe 6.
[0037] Reference Figure 1-3 The chamber 1 is provided with a soaking chamber 13, a cleaning chamber 14, a washing chamber 15 and a drying chamber 16 in sequence. Each of the four chambers is provided with a winding shaft 17 to facilitate the guidance of stainless steel wire. The winding shaft 17 located in the soaking chamber 13, the washing chamber 15 and the drying chamber 16 is provided with annular guide blocks 18 to restrict the winding position of stainless steel wire. Guide rings 19 are provided on both sides of multiple chambers to facilitate the passage of stainless steel wire. The guide rings 19, the winding shaft 17 and the annular guide blocks 18 are all used to guide the stainless steel wire, so that the stainless steel wire travels along an S-shaped path in the chamber 1 and is finally guided out of the chamber 1.
[0038] It should be noted that the liquid levels in both the soaking chamber 13 and the cleaning chamber 15 are below the guide ring 19 to prevent water from flowing into the cleaning chamber 14 or the drying chamber 16 through the guide ring 19, thus ensuring the normal operation of the device. At the same time, the guide ring 19, which is located on the adjacent wall of the cleaning chamber 15 and the drying chamber 16, is filled with microfiber cloth. The microfiber cloth has a high specific surface area and capillary effect. If placed in a well-ventilated and low-humidity environment, it can usually dry naturally within 2-4 hours. Therefore, when workers take a lunch break, eat dinner, or change shifts, the moisture absorbed by the microfiber cloth will dry naturally to maintain good adsorption of moisture on the surface of the stainless steel wire. This is used to absorb a large amount of moisture adhering to the surface of the stainless steel wire after cleaning, thereby reducing the moisture content on the surface of the stainless steel wire transported to the drying chamber 16 and improving the drying effect of the stainless steel wire after drying in the drying chamber 16.
[0039] On the other hand, the stainless steel wire traveling in an S-shaped path extends its processing time in the soaking chamber 13, cleaning chamber 14, washing chamber 15 and drying chamber 16 within a limited space, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the stainless steel wire.
[0040] Reference Figure 3 The drying chamber 16 is equipped with a drying module 20 for drying the surface of stainless steel wire.
[0041] By setting up the drying module 20, the small amount of moisture adhering to the surface of the stainless steel wire is dried, thereby preventing the moisture from adhering to the surface of the stainless steel wire and forming an electrolyte film, which would then combine with impurities adhering to the surface of the stainless steel wire and cause surface pitting corrosion.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 The bottom of the soaking chamber 13 and the cleaning chamber 15 are provided with waste liquid outlets 21 for discharging soaking waste liquid and cleaning waste liquid.
[0043] In use, simply open the waste liquid outlet 21 corresponding to the soaking chamber 13 and the cleaning chamber 15 respectively to discharge the waste liquid in the soaking chamber 13 and the cleaning chamber 15. Then, pour the new liquid into the soaking chamber 13 and the cleaning chamber 15 to complete the replacement of the liquid inside the soaking chamber 13 and the cleaning chamber 15.
[0044] The stainless steel wire surface cleaning device provided by this utility model is used as follows:
[0045] Workers sequentially wind stainless steel wire along guide ring 19, winding shaft, and annular guide block 18, and then exit through housing 1. During this process, the stainless steel wire is soaked in cleaning chamber 15, then passes through guide ring 19 and winds into cleaning chamber 14. After passing the stainless steel wire through airbags 2, an external air pump is connected to one end of the corresponding inflation tube 6 extending out of housing 1, allowing air to flow from inflation tube 6 into multiple air inlet tubes 5, inflating multiple airbags 2. This inflates the airbags 2, causing multiple wear-resistant steel balls fixed on the inner surface of the airbags 2 to gradually move towards the stainless steel wire and come into contact with its surface. Then, the process continues to inflate the stainless steel wire passing through the airbags 2. The stainless steel wire is wound around a series of steel balls to clean the oxide layer and particulate impurities on its surface. The cleaned stainless steel wire is then wound into a cleaning tank for further cleaning, which removes oil, oxide fragments, and fine particulate impurities from its surface. After cleaning, the stainless steel wire is conveyed to the drying chamber 16 for drying. During the drying process, the microfiber cloth inside the guide ring 19 absorbs any residual moisture on the surface of the stainless steel wire. The heating module then dries the stainless steel wire and it continues to be wound until it exits from the left side of the drying chamber 16.
