Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasonic cleaning equipment technology, and specifically discloses an ultrasonic cleaning bracket adapted to bearing components. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of bearing components, ultrasonic cleaning is a key process for removing grease, metal debris, and polishing residue from the surfaces of bearing rings, rollers, and other parts. Bearing components typically have high-precision mating surfaces and complex geometries, and their cleanliness directly affects the assembly quality, rotational performance, and service life of the bearing.

[0003] Currently, ultrasonic cleaning machines generally use fixed holding racks, which have the following technical drawbacks:

[0004] Poor versatility: Traditional brackets mostly use fixed-spacing slots or clamping plate structures, which can only be used to fit a single specification of bearing rings. When cleaning parts with different inner diameters (such as Φ20mm~Φ200mm) or different thicknesses, it is necessary to frequently replace the bracket or manually adjust the clamping mechanism, resulting in low production efficiency and easy positioning deviation caused by manual operation.

[0005] The cleaning effect is insufficient. Existing brackets mostly use solid base plates (such as perforated steel plates), which hinders the propagation of ultrasonic waves in the cleaning fluid, resulting in "cleaning blind spots" in the bearing raceways, oil holes, and other parts. Residual dirt affects subsequent assembly.

[0006] There is a risk of damage to parts. Rigid clamping structures (such as metal claws) are prone to collision with the precision surfaces of bearings under high-frequency ultrasonic vibration, causing scratches or deformation. At the same time, the lack of anti-slip design may cause parts to shift and fall off during the cleaning process, or even hit the cleaning tank wall.

[0007] The low level of automation and the reliance on manual adjustment of the support height make it impossible to automatically adjust the immersion depth of parts according to the cleaning liquid level, resulting in unstable cleaning effect and increased operation complexity.

[0008] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an ultrasonic cleaning bracket that can be adapted to bearing components and solve problems such as versatility, cleaning effect, component protection and automated control. Utility Model Content

[0009] This utility model proposes an ultrasonic cleaning bracket adapted to bearing components. Through an adjustable positioning mechanism, a perforated base plate, an anti-slip buffer layer, automated lifting control, and lighting design, it achieves multiple advantages such as strong versatility, good cleaning effect, protection of components, high degree of automation, and convenient operation.

[0010] This utility model is implemented as follows: an ultrasonic cleaning bracket adapted for bearing components includes a bracket body disposed above an ultrasonic cleaning tank; the bracket body includes a crossbeam, a perforated base plate, connecting rods, slide rails, a positioning mechanism, a support, and a lifting device; the crossbeam is horizontally disposed above the ultrasonic cleaning tank, and the perforated base plate is parallel to the crossbeam below it and fixedly connected to the crossbeam by multiple connecting rods; at least two slide rails are fixed to the upper surface of the perforated base plate; the positioning mechanism is movably disposed on the slide rails for clamping and fixing bearing components; the supports are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the ultrasonic cleaning tank; the lifting device is installed on the supports, and the telescopic end of the lifting device is connected to the bottom of the crossbeam to drive the bracket body to rise and fall; the positioning mechanism includes two opposing clamping arms, each clamping arm having a V-groove on its inner side; the slide rail contains a bidirectional screw and two sliders that slide in cooperation with the slide rail, the two ends of the bidirectional screw being threadedly connected to the two sliders respectively, one end of which extends out of the slide rail and has a drive handle, and the upper ends of the two sliders are fixedly connected to the bottom of the two clamping arms respectively.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the ultrasonic cleaning bracket for adapting bearing components according to this utility model, the holes in the porous base plate are hollow grids distributed in a regular hexagonal array, with a grid hole diameter of 5-15mm.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the ultrasonic cleaning bracket for bearing components according to this utility model, a radar liquid level sensor is provided at the bottom of the crossbeam, and the radar liquid level sensor is offset from the position of the perforated base plate below. A controller is provided on the crossbeam; the controller is electrically connected to the radar liquid level sensor and the lifting device respectively, and the controller controls the lifting of the lifting device according to the water level signal detected by the radar liquid level sensor.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the ultrasonic cleaning bracket adapted to bearing components of this utility model, the bottom of the crossbeam is provided with a lighting lamp.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the ultrasonic cleaning bracket adapted to bearing components of this utility model, the lifting device is an electric hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic servo cylinder.

This improves cleaning efficiency, reduces operational difficulty and labor intensity, and the lifting device makes clamping, cleaning, and removal of parts more convenient and faster, improving work efficiency and operational accuracy.

[0019] 2. The perforated base plate's openwork mesh design reduces obstruction to ultrasonic wave propagation, avoiding "cleaning dead corners." The nozzle and spray head allow for water spraying and rinsing of parts, further enhancing the cleaning effect and ensuring the cleanliness of parts surfaces for a more thorough cleaning.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments to aid in understanding its content. Unless otherwise specified, the methods used in this invention are conventional methods; the raw materials and apparatus used, unless otherwise specified, are conventional commercially available products.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 An ultrasonic cleaning bracket adapted for bearing components includes a bracket body 1 positioned above an ultrasonic cleaning tank. The bracket body 1 includes a crossbeam 2, a perforated base plate 3, connecting rods 4, slide rails 5, a positioning mechanism 6, supports 7, and a lifting device 8. The crossbeam 2 is horizontally positioned above the ultrasonic cleaning tank, and the perforated base plate 3 is parallel to the crossbeam 2 below it and fixed to the crossbeam 2 via multiple connecting rods 4. At least two slide rails 5 are fixed to the upper surface of the perforated base plate 3. The positioning mechanism 6 is movably mounted on the slide rails 5 for clamping and fixing bearing components. The supports 7 are symmetrically arranged on the support body 8. On both sides of the ultrasonic cleaning tank; the lifting device 8 is installed on the support 7, and the telescopic end of the lifting device 8 is connected to the bottom of the crossbeam 2 to drive the support body 1 to rise and fall; the positioning mechanism 6 includes two clamping arms 9 arranged opposite to each other, and V-shaped grooves 10 are provided on the inner sides of the two clamping arms 9 respectively; the slide rail 5 is provided with a bidirectional screw 11 and two sliders 12 that slide with the slide rail 5, the two ends of the bidirectional screw 11 are respectively threaded to the two sliders 12, one end of which extends out of the slide rail 5 and is provided with a drive handle 13, and the upper ends of the two sliders 12 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the two clamping arms 9.

[0029] In this embodiment: the bearing components are placed on the slide rail 5 above the porous base plate 3. The drive handle 13 of the rotary positioning mechanism 6 drives the bidirectional screw 11 to rotate, causing the two sliders 12 to move on the slide rail 5, thereby adjusting the distance between the two clamping arms 9 and clamping the toothed sleeve in the V-groove 10 of the clamping arm 9. The radar liquid level sensor 17 detects the water level signal in the ultrasonic cleaning tank in real time and transmits the signal to the controller 18. The controller 18 controls the extension and retraction of the lifting device 8 according to the preset program and the water level signal, so that the support body 1 and the clamping toothed sleeve are clamped together. The sleeve is placed stably in the appropriate position in the cleaning tank; during the ultrasonic cleaning process, ultrasonic waves are transmitted to the surface of the parts through the hollow mesh 16 of the porous base plate 3 to clean the sleeve; due to the presence of the anti-slip buffer layer 14, the parts will not be displaced or damaged by collision during the cleaning process; after cleaning, the porous base plate 3 is moved above the water level, the pump 22 is started, and the parts are sprayed with water through the spray pipe 20 and the nozzle 21. Finally, the controller 18 controls the lifting device 8 to lift the support body 1 from the cleaning tank, making it convenient for the operator to take out the cleaned parts.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the inner surface of the V-groove 10 of the clamping arm 9 is provided with an anti-slip buffer layer 14, which is made of silicone and has densely distributed hemispherical protrusions 15 on its surface.

[0031] In this embodiment: the anti-slip buffer layer 14 prevents the parts from shifting and being damaged during the cleaning process, effectively protects the surface quality of the parts, improves the stability and safety of the parts during the cleaning process, and avoids an increase in the scrap rate due to damage to the parts.

[0032] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the holes of the porous base plate 3 are hollow grids 16 arranged in a regular hexagonal array, and the grid hole diameter is 5-15mm.

[0033] In this embodiment, the structure of the porous base plate 3 reduces the obstruction to the propagation of ultrasonic waves, ensuring that the ultrasonic waves can fully act on the surface of the parts, eliminating "cleaning dead corners", improving the cleaning effect, and making the parts cleaner more thoroughly.

[0034] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a radar liquid level sensor 17 is provided at the bottom of the crossbeam 2, and the radar liquid level sensor 17 is staggered from the position of the porous base plate 3 below. A controller 18 is provided on the crossbeam 2. The controller 18 is electrically connected to the radar liquid level sensor 17 and the lifting device 8 respectively, and is used to control the lifting of the lifting device 8 according to the water level signal detected by the radar liquid level sensor 17.

[0035] In this embodiment: the radar level sensor 17 detects the water level height, and the controller 18 automatically adjusts the position of the support body 1 according to the water level signal, thereby improving the automation of the cleaning process, ensuring the stability of the cleaning effect, and avoiding equipment failure or cleaning quality problems caused by improper human operation.

[0036] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a lighting lamp 19 is provided at the bottom of the crossbeam 2.

[0037] In this embodiment: the lighting lamp 19 provides illumination for the cleaning process, making it easier for operators to observe the cleaning situation, improving the convenience and accuracy of operation, and helping to promptly identify and address problems that arise during the cleaning process.

[0038] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a nozzle 20 is provided at the bottom center of the crossbeam 2 along the length direction. The nozzle 20 is provided at equal intervals at the bottom of the nozzle 20, corresponding to the number of slide rails 5. The nozzles 21 are located at the top center of the slide rails 5. A pump 22 is provided on the crossbeam 2. The input end of the pump 22 is connected to the water source pipe, the output end is connected to the nozzle 20, and the pump 22 is connected to the controller 18 via signal.

[0039] In this embodiment: after the bearing components are cleaned and moved above the water level, the controller 18 starts the pump 22 to deliver water into the spray pipe 20, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect and further improving the cleaning function of the bracket.

[0040] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the lifting device 8 is an electric hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic servo cylinder.

[0041] In this embodiment, the lifting device 8 adopts an electric hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic servo cylinder to ensure the smoothness and accuracy of the lifting action of the support body 1, meet the usage requirements under different working conditions, and improve the reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0042] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0043] The bearing components are placed on the slide rail 5 above the porous base plate 3. According to the size of the gear sleeve, the spacing of the clamping arms 9 is adjusted by the drive handle 13 of the rotating positioning mechanism 6 to firmly clamp the gear sleeve in the V-groove 10. The anti-slip buffer layer 14 is used to prevent the gear sleeve from sliding. The radar liquid level sensor 17 detects the water level in the ultrasonic cleaning tank and feeds the signal back to the controller 18. The controller 18 controls the lifting device 8 according to the water level signal to accurately place the bracket body 1 along with the gear sleeve into the cleaning tank at the appropriate immersion depth. The ultrasonic cleaner is started, and the ultrasonic waves are transmitted to the surface of the gear sleeve through the hollow mesh 16 of the porous base plate 3 to clean it from all directions, removing cutting oil, metal chips, etc. After cleaning, the controller 18 controls the lifting device 8 to move the bracket body 1 from the cleaning tank to above the water level, and starts the pump 22 to spray water to rinse the components through the spray pipe 20 and nozzle 21. After rinsing, the controller 18 controls the lifting device 8 to lift the bracket body 1 from the cleaning tank, and the operator takes out the cleaned components to complete the cleaning work.
