Detailed Implementation
[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Specific implementation examples are given below.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 This utility model provides a metal parts cleaning device, including a water tank 1, a top plate 15 fixed to the top of the water tank 1, a cleaning box 16 fixed to the top plate 15, a conveyor belt 3 below the cleaning box 16, and fixed plates 2 on both sides of the conveyor belt 3, which are fixed to the water tank 1. The conveyor belt 3 has multiple filter holes 5. Multiple baffles 4 are rotatably connected between the two fixed plates 2 via a rotating shaft. Two first connecting blocks 6 are fixed to the side walls of the baffles 4. A connecting rod 10 is rotatably connected to each of the first connecting blocks 6 via a pin. The conveyor belt 3 has multiple grooves 7. A sliding column 8 is fixed to each groove 7. A second connecting block 11 is slidably connected to the outside of each sliding column 8. A spring 9 is sleeved on the outside of each sliding column 8. The two ends of the spring 9 are fixed to the side walls of the grooves 7 and the second connecting blocks 11, respectively. A drain pipe is connected to the bottom of the water tank 1.
[0028] During operation, the parts are cleaned in the cleaning tank 16. After cleaning, the sewage flows out by slightly opening the sealing plate 27, and the parts are cleaned again to rinse the cleaning solution off the surface of the metal parts. The water in the water tank 1 flows out through the drain pipe. Then the sealing plate 27 is fully opened, and the metal parts fall onto the conveyor belt 3. As the conveyor belt 3 runs, the metal parts are conveyed upward. During the conveying process, the water on the metal parts flows out through the filter holes 5. When the metal parts move to the top of the conveyor belt 3 for the return trip, in order to prevent some metal parts from sticking to the baffle 4, when the baffle 4 rotates at one end of the conveyor belt 3, the center of gravity changes and the baffle 4 tilts. The baffle 4 drives the connecting rod 10 to rotate through the first connecting block 6. The connecting rod 10 drives the second connecting block 11 to slide. Under the action of the spring 9, the second connecting plate slides back and forth, thereby making the baffle 4 shake, so that the metal parts can slide onto the conveyor 12 below.
[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a top cover 17 is inserted into the top of the cleaning tank 16. A first motor 18 is fixedly connected to the top cover 17. A first rotating rod 19 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 18. The first rotating rod 19 is rotatably connected to the top cover 17. A cavity is opened inside the top cover 17. A first gear 21 is provided in the cavity. The first gear 21 is fixedly connected to the first rotating rod 19. Four second rotating rods 20 are rotatably connected to the top cover 17. A second gear 22 is fixedly connected to each of the second rotating rods 20. The second gears 22 mesh with the first gears 21. Cleaning brushes are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the first rotating rod 19 and the second rotating rods 20.
[0030] During operation, to promote thorough cleaning of metal parts, the first motor 18 is turned on, and the output shaft of the first motor 18 drives the first rotating rod 19 to rotate. The first rotating rod 19 drives the connected cleaning brush to rotate. When the first rotating rod 19 rotates, it drives the first gear 21 to rotate. The first gear 21 drives the four second gears 22 to rotate in the opposite direction. The second gears 22 drive the second rotating rod 20 to rotate. The second rotating rod 20 drives the connected cleaning brush to rotate in the opposite direction to the cleaning brush connected to the first rotating rod 19, which facilitates cleaning and achieves the function of rapid cleaning of metal parts.
[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a water storage chamber 24 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning tank 16, and a water inlet pipe 25 is connected to the outer wall of the water storage chamber 24. Multiple water spray pipes 23 are connected to the inner wall of the water storage chamber 24, and all the water spray pipes 23 penetrate into the cleaning tank 16.
[0032] During operation, water is delivered to the water storage chamber 24 through the water inlet pipe 25. The water in the water storage chamber 24 is sprayed into the cleaning tank 16 through the water spray pipe 23 to rinse the metal parts in the cleaning tank 16. The cleaning brush is used to easily remove oil and dust.
[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, a bidirectional ball screw 29 is rotatably connected to the water tank 1 via bearings. Two sealing plates 27 are threaded onto the bidirectional ball screw 29. The sealing plates 27 are tightly fitted to the bottom of the cleaning tank 16. Two guide rods 30 are fixedly connected to the water tank 1. The sealing plates 27 slide on the guide rods 30. A second motor 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water tank 1. The output shaft of the second motor 28 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional ball screw 29.
[0034] During operation, after the brushing is completed, when the bottom of the cleaning tank 16 needs to be opened, the second motor 28 is turned on. The output shaft of the second motor 28 drives the bidirectional ball screw 29 to rotate, which in turn drives the two sealing plates 27 to move to both sides. During the movement, the sealing plates 27 slide on the guide rod 30, which limits the sealing plates 27 to the horizontal direction. During brushing, the sealing plates 27 are in a closed state to save water. During the secondary cleaning process, the sealing plates 27 should be slightly opened to facilitate the flow of cleaning fluid and debris. When unloading, the sealing plates 27 need to be fully opened.
[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, a conveyor 12 is provided on one side of the water tank 1, and a drying box 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor 12. The conveyor 12 is located directly below the conveyor belt 3.
[0036] During operation, metal parts on conveyor belt 3 fall onto conveyor 12, which then transports them to the bottom of drying chamber 13 for drying, making them ready for the next processing step.
[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, a handle 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 17, and a feed hopper 26 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cleaning tank 16.
[0038] During operation, the feed hopper 26 facilitates the entry of metal parts into the cleaning chamber 16 for cleaning, and the handle 14 facilitates the opening of the top cover 17.
[0039] Working principle: The parts are cleaned in the cleaning tank 16. After cleaning, the sealing plate 27 is slightly opened to allow the sewage to flow out. The parts are cleaned again to rinse the cleaning solution off the surface of the metal parts. The water in the water tank 1 flows out through the drain pipe. Then the sealing plate 27 is fully opened and the metal parts fall onto the conveyor belt 3. As the conveyor belt 3 runs, the metal parts are conveyed upward. During the conveying process, the water on the metal parts flows out through the filter holes 5. When the metal parts move to the top of the conveyor belt 3 for the return trip, in order to prevent some metal parts from sticking to the baffle 4, when the baffle 4 rotates at one end of the conveyor belt 3, the center of gravity changes and the baffle 4 tilts. The baffle 4 drives the connecting rod 10 to rotate through the first connecting block 6. The connecting rod 10 drives the second connecting block 11 to slide. Under the action of the spring 9, the second connecting plate slides back and forth, thereby making the baffle 4 shake, so that the metal parts can slide onto the conveyor 12 below.
[0040] To facilitate thorough cleaning of metal parts, the first motor 18 is activated. The output shaft of the first motor 18 drives the first rotating rod 19 to rotate. The first rotating rod 19 then drives the connected cleaning brush to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating rod 19 drives the first gear 21 to rotate, which in turn drives four second gears 22 to rotate in the opposite direction. The second gears 22 then drive the second rotating rod 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the connected cleaning brush to rotate in the opposite direction to the cleaning brush connected to the first rotating rod 19. This facilitates cleaning and achieves a rapid cleaning function for the metal parts. After cleaning is complete... When the bottom of the cleaning tank 16 needs to be opened, the second motor 28 is turned on. The output shaft of the second motor 28 drives the bidirectional ball screw 29 to rotate, which in turn drives the two sealing plates 27 to move to both sides. During the movement, the sealing plates 27 slide on the guide rod 30, which limits the sealing plates 27 to the horizontal direction. During the brushing process, the sealing plates 27 are in a closed state to save water. During the secondary cleaning process, the sealing plates 27 should be slightly opened to allow the cleaning fluid and debris to flow out. When unloading, the sealing plates 27 need to be fully opened.
[0041] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
