Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of powder cylinder cleaning technology, specifically an automatic water cleaning device for powder cylinders. Background Technology

[0002] Powder hopper contamination refers to the situation where the surface of the material hopper becomes contaminated due to various reasons during the storage or transportation of materials. This contamination may affect product quality, production efficiency, and hopper life. At the same time, frequent replacement of material hoppers will cause economic losses.

[0003] Existing cleaning processes mostly involve burning the powder cylinders for a certain period of time, then removing them and allowing them to cool before using wire brushes to remove the carbonized layer. However, this cleaning method has many drawbacks: Firstly, it is difficult to precisely control the temperature during the burning process, and excessively high temperatures may cause deformation of the powder cylinders, affecting their structural strength and performance. Secondly, manually removing the carbonized layer with wire brushes is extremely labor-intensive and has very low cleaning efficiency, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. In addition, the burning process generates a large amount of harmful gases, which not only pollutes the environment but also harms the health of the operators. Utility Model Content

[0021] To make the technical means, creative features, achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper," "lower," "inner," "outer," "front end," "rear end," "both ends," "one end," and "the other end," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and 2This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic water cleaning device for powder cylinders, including a frame 8. A cleaning component 14 and a drying component 15 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the frame 8, and the cleaning component 14 and drying component 15 are arranged in parallel. A flexible conveyor 9 is also provided on the upper surface of the frame 8, and the flexible conveyor 9 works in conjunction with the cleaning component 14 and the drying component 15. An industrial hot air blower 16 is installed inside the frame 8, and the industrial hot air blower 16 works in conjunction with the drying component 15. A water receiving tank 7 is provided inside the frame 8, and a water storage tank 11 is provided on the inner side wall of the frame 8. The water receiving tank 7 and the water storage tank 11 are interconnected. A water circulation component 10 is provided inside the frame 8, and a filter box 12 is provided on one side of the frame 8. The water storage tank 11 is interconnected with the filter box 12 through the water circulation component 10. On-site operators neatly place the powder cylinders to be cleaned at the front discharge position of the flexible conveyor 9. This discharge end has a total of 22... At each location, batch feeding can be achieved, improving operational efficiency. After placement, the flexible conveyor belt 9 starts, conveying the powder cylinders forward sequentially at a stable speed. When the powder cylinders are conveyed to the cleaning position, the flexible conveyor belt 9 automatically stops. At this time, the three-dimensional cleaning head installed on the frame 8 starts, rises vertically into the powder cylinder, and then begins 360° cleaning. The all-around cleaning operation involves simultaneously cleaning the inside of the material cylinder with the three-dimensional cleaning head, while the fan-shaped spray device around the cleaning component 14 is activated to rinse the outside of the material cylinder in a fan-shaped spray pattern, ensuring that the dirt on both the inner and outer walls of the powder material cylinder is effectively washed away. After the cleaning operation is completed, the flexible conveyor belt 9 starts again to transport the cleaned powder material cylinder to the next station. After the powder material cylinder is transported to the drying position, the drying system is immediately activated. The hot air device located below the drying position blows hot air upwards to dry the inside of the material cylinder; at the same time, the air duct arranged in the frame 8 blows hot air into the box to dry the outside of the material cylinder, achieving simultaneous drying inside and outside of the material cylinder. It is worth noting that the cleaning station and the drying station can operate simultaneously, that is, when the next powder material cylinder is being cleaned at the cleaning station, the previous powder material cylinder can be dried simultaneously at the drying station, which greatly improves the operating efficiency of the equipment. It is estimated that the cleaning efficiency of a single powder material cylinder can reach 3 minutes / cylinder.

[0023] In this embodiment, a mounting frame is provided at one end of the frame 8, and a three-axis robot 2 is mounted on the mounting frame. A material pad 3 is mounted on the three-axis robot 2. The mounting frame is provided with double-opening inlet and outlet doors 5. A material cart 4 is provided on one side of the material pad 3. Cleaning workpieces 17 are mounted on the material cart 4 and the flexible conveyor 9. A guardrail 13 is provided on one side of the frame 8. A manual operation interface 6 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame, and an electrical control box 1 is provided on one side of the mounting frame. After the powder cylinders have been dried, they continue to be conveyed to the receiving end by the flexible conveyor 9. At this time, the three-axis robot 2 on the mounting frame is activated, and through the material pad 3 at the end, it grabs the powder cylinders at the receiving end one by one and places them on the material cart 4. The material cart 4 adopts a 3-axis robot 4. The layered design allows for the placement of eight material carts per layer, effectively increasing the quantity of material collected at one time and accelerating material turnover. Once the material cart 4 is full, the operator can remove it and replace it with a new material cart 4 to continue the next round of cleaning operations. Wastewater generated during the cleaning process is collected through a water receiving trough 7 within the frame 8. The water receiving trough 7 is connected to a water storage tank 11. The wastewater flows from the water receiving trough 7 into the water storage tank 11 for temporary storage. Subsequently, the water circulation component 10 within the frame 8 is activated, transporting the wastewater from the water storage tank 11 to a filter box 12 on one side of the frame 8. The filter box 12 employs a triple water filtration system to treat the wastewater in multiple stages, effectively removing impurities, pollutants, and other harmful substances from the water. The filtered water meets discharge standards. It can be directly discharged into the sewage treatment system to realize the recycling of water resources and practice the concept of green production. Operators can accurately set and adjust the operating parameters of the equipment, such as cleaning time, drying temperature, and conveying speed, through the manual operation interface 6 fixedly connected to the mounting frame. At the same time, the manual operation interface 6 has functions such as real-time monitoring of equipment operation status and fault alarm prompts, so that operators can keep abreast of the equipment operation status. The electrical control box 1 set on one side of the mounting frame serves as the control core of the equipment, integrating the electrical control system of various components of the equipment to ensure stable and reliable operation of the equipment. In addition, the guardrail 13 set on one side of the frame 8 provides safety protection for operators and avoids accidents during equipment operation.

[0024] On-site operators first place the powder cylinder to be cleaned at one of the 22 feeding positions at the front end of the flexible conveyor belt 9, and the conveyor belt starts feeding. When the powder cylinder reaches the cleaning position, the belt stops, and the three-dimensional cleaning head enters the cylinder for 360° cleaning, while the fan-shaped spray device cleans the outside of the cylinder simultaneously. After cleaning, the conveyor belt feeds the powder to the drying position, where the hot air device below dries the inside of the cylinder, and the air duct on the frame 8 dries the outside of the cylinder. The cleaning and drying positions can be operated simultaneously. After drying, the powder cylinder is conveyed to the receiving end by the conveyor belt, where the three-axis robot 2 grabs and places it into the three-layer material cart 4. The cleaning wastewater passes through the water receiving tank 7 and the water storage tank 11, and is then sent to the filter box 12 for treatment by the water circulation component 10 before being discharged in compliance with standards. Operators control the equipment through the manual operation interface 6, the electrical control box 1 ensures operation, and the guardrail 13 ensures safety.

[0025] This automatic water washing equipment for powder cylinders establishes a fully automated operation system. The flexible conveyor 9 automatically transports the cylinders, precisely delivering them to the areas below the washing and drying components 14 and 15. Combined with automatic positioning technology, this ensures efficient and stable execution of the washing and drying processes. The three-axis robotic arm 2 on the mounting frame automatically grabs the cylinders and stacks them onto the material cart 4. The entire process requires minimal manual intervention, significantly reducing labor intensity and costs, while effectively improving production efficiency and product quality stability to meet the needs of large-scale industrial production. The equipment's structural design is fully optimized to enhance washing efficiency. The conveyor chain has 22 feeding positions at its discharge end, enabling batch feeding of cylinders and reducing waiting time. The three-axis robotic arm 2 at the receiving end quickly and accurately grabs the washed and dried cylinders onto the material cart 4. The material cart 4 features a three-layer design, with each layer holding eight cylinders, significantly increasing the quantity received per batch and accelerating material turnover. Furthermore, the industrial hot air blower 16 installed inside the frame 8 works closely with the drying component 15 to quickly and thoroughly remove water stains from inside and outside the drum. Compared to traditional natural air drying or inefficient drying methods, this significantly shortens the drying time. The entire system is compact, effectively reducing floor space and maximizing space utilization. The equipment features a triple water filtration system, with the water receiving tank 7, water storage tank 11, water circulation component 10, and filter box 12 working together to form a complete wastewater treatment and recycling system. The water receiving tank 7 promptly collects the wastewater generated during cleaning and directs it to the water storage tank 11. From there, it is transported to the filter box 12 via the water circulation component 10. After triple filtration, impurities and pollutants are effectively removed, ensuring the treated water meets discharge standards and can be directly discharged into the wastewater treatment system. This avoids environmental pollution from wastewater discharge, embodying the concept of green production and simultaneously achieving water resource recycling, reducing water consumption costs during equipment operation.
