Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cleaning roller lint removal equipment, and in particular to a cleaning roller lint removal equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Cleaning rollers, as a key component of modern cleaning equipment, are widely used in industrial and household cleaning. With the increasing prevalence of cleaning rollers, they inevitably accumulate a large amount of lint and debris during use, affecting cleaning effectiveness and equipment lifespan. To ensure the efficient operation of cleaning rollers, the development of lint removal equipment has gradually become a focus of industry attention. Such equipment not only extends the lifespan of cleaning rollers but also significantly improves cleaning efficiency, meeting users' high performance requirements for cleaning equipment.

[0003] In existing technologies, the following methods are commonly used to solve the problem of removing lint from cleaning rollers: one is manual cleaning, where the operator uses a brush or blade to directly remove lint from the roller surface; another is using simple mechanical devices, such as a fixed brush combined with a vacuum cleaner; and yet another is using a flexible scraper to scrape off lint from the roller surface as it rotates. While these methods can solve the problem to some extent, they generally have limitations.

[0004] However, the aforementioned existing technologies have obvious drawbacks: manual cleaning is inefficient and can easily cause injury to operators; fixed brush cleaning methods are difficult to adapt to cleaning rollers of different sizes and have limited applicability; and flexible scraper cleaning may cause wear on the roller surface, affecting its normal use.

[0005] Therefore, based on the above problems, existing technologies need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a cleaning roller for removing lint and debris.

[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of this application is achieved through the following technical solution: a cleaning roller lint removal device, comprising a machine base, a first fixed rotating component on the machine base, a spacing adjustment component on the machine base, a second fixed rotating component on the spacing adjustment component, the spacing adjustment component adjusting the distance between the second fixed rotating component and the first fixed rotating component, and the two ends of the cleaning roller being fixedly installed on the first fixed rotating component and the second fixed rotating component respectively; the machine base is also provided with a position adjustment component, a lint removal brush on the position adjustment component, and a dust suction component corresponding to the lint removal brush on the machine base.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, and through the coordinated design of the dual fixed rotating components and the spacing adjustment system, stable clamping and rapid positioning of the cleaning roller are achieved, significantly improving the efficiency of hair removal and the versatility of the equipment. The position adjustment component can precisely control the contact pressure and action area between the cleaning brush and the roller surface, ensuring thorough and uniform hair removal. The matching dust collection component collects hair simultaneously during the cleaning process, effectively avoiding secondary pollution and ensuring a clean and hygienic working environment. Compared with traditional manual cleaning or single mechanical structures, this equipment, through its integrated design of automated adjustment, precise positioning, and efficient collection, significantly reduces labor intensity, shortens the cleaning cycle, and supports rapid switching between different roller sizes, significantly improving the practicality and economic benefits of the equipment.

[0009] Optionally, the first fixed rotating assembly includes a first fixed base fixedly mounted on the machine base, a first driving member on the first fixed base, a first rotating shaft being driven by the first driving member, and a first mounting head on the first rotating shaft for mounting the cleaning roller, and the first rotating shaft being driven to rotate by the first driving member.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, and directly connecting the first driving component to the first rotating shaft, high-precision rotation drive of the cleaning roller is achieved, ensuring that the roller maintains a stable rotation speed during the removal of debris and hair, thus improving the uniformity and thoroughness of debris removal. The detachable first mounting head design supports quick replacement of cleaning rollers of different specifications, significantly improving the equipment's versatility and production efficiency. The modular structure design separates the drive unit from the mounting interface, facilitating equipment maintenance and component replacement, and reducing downtime and maintenance costs. At the same time, the rigid support structure of the first fixed base effectively reduces vibration and noise during rotation, improving equipment operational stability and safety, and providing a reliable power foundation for debris removal.

[0011] Optionally, the first mounting head is provided with a mounting slot.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the roller and the first mounting head are ensured to rotate precisely and synchronously, the power transmission is stable, and the uniformity and thoroughness of hair removal are improved. The operation is convenient for operators to load and unload, and the roller can be replaced quickly, shortening downtime and reducing labor intensity. It can be adapted to a variety of cleaning rollers, broadening the scope of application of the equipment and enhancing its market competitiveness.

[0013] Optionally, the spacing adjustment component includes a guide rail disposed on the machine base, a slider disposed on the guide rail, and a spacing adjustment drive connected to the slider. The spacing adjustment drive drives the slider to slide towards or away from the first fixed rotation component, and the second fixed rotation component is disposed on the slider.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination of the guide rail and the slider provides stable and precise movement guidance for the second fixed rotating component, enabling the cleaning roller to be quickly and accurately adjusted to the appropriate distance with the first fixed rotating component during installation. This greatly improves the assembly efficiency of the equipment and effectively avoids installation difficulties or operational malfunctions caused by improper spacing. The driving action of the spacing adjustment drive component realizes automated spacing control. Operators can easily handle cleaning rollers of different lengths with simple operation, which not only reduces labor intensity but also significantly shortens equipment debugging time. Furthermore, the integrated structure of placing the second fixed rotating component on the slider makes the entire device compact and rationally laid out, reducing space occupation and also improving the overall stability of the equipment. This ensures that the cleaning roller maintains stable operation during the lint removal process, laying a solid foundation for efficient and high-quality lint removal.

[0015] Optionally, the second fixed rotating assembly includes a second fixed base, on which a second driving member is provided. The second driving member is connected to a second rotating shaft, and on which a second mounting head is provided for mounting the cleaning roller. The second rotating shaft is driven to rotate by the second driving member.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the transmission connection between the second drive component and the second rotating shaft, in conjunction with the drive structure of the first fixed rotating assembly, achieves synchronous dual-end drive of the cleaning roller. Compared to single-end drive, this allows the roller to operate more smoothly and at a more uniform speed during lint removal, greatly improving the efficiency and uniformity of lint removal and avoiding cleaning dead zones caused by uneven force. Secondly, the second mounting head facilitates the installation of the cleaning roller, and together with the first mounting head, ensures quick replacement of rollers of different specifications, broadening the applicability of the equipment and meeting diverse production needs. Furthermore, the second fixed base provides stable support for the entire rotating assembly, reducing vibration and shaking during operation, lowering noise interference, ensuring the reliability and stability of equipment operation, extending equipment lifespan, and creating favorable conditions for continuous and efficient lint removal operations.

[0017] Optionally, the position adjustment component includes a horizontal slide rail, on which a mounting bracket is provided, and on which a brush mounting seat is provided, the mounting bracket being movable along the horizontal slide rail toward or away from the cleaning roller.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the horizontal slide rail combined with the movable mounting bracket provides a precise and stable horizontal displacement path for the brush mounting base. This allows the cleaning brush to flexibly and accurately approach or move away from the cleaning roller, thus easily adjusting the action distance between the brush and the roller according to the actual wear condition of the roller and the degree of hair adhesion. This ensures that the brush always contacts the roller with optimal force for efficient hair removal. On the other hand, this modular structural design not only facilitates daily maintenance and component replacement, but also allows operators to quickly locate and replace worn brushes, reducing downtime. Furthermore, the combination of the mounting bracket and the horizontal slide rail results in a compact layout of the entire position adjustment component, achieving efficient space utilization within the limited machine space. This lays the foundation for the overall miniaturization and integration of the equipment, enhancing its practicality and adaptability to meet the needs of cleaning roller hair removal in different scenarios.

[0019] Optionally, the machine base is provided with a horizontal adjustment scale, and the mounting frame is provided with a horizontal reference block.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the horizontal adjustment ruler and the horizontal reference block work together to form a precise distance adjustment reference system. Operators can accurately control the movement distance of the mounting frame based on the ruler reading and the block position, thereby precisely adjusting the distance between the cleaning brush and the cleaning roller. This ensures that the brush is at the optimal distance from the roller, avoiding both incomplete removal of debris due to excessive distance and damage to the roller surface due to excessive closeness. Furthermore, this design greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of distance adjustment, reduces the time spent on repeated adjustments, and allows the equipment to quickly reach its optimal working state, improving the overall quality and efficiency of debris removal operations.

[0021] Optionally, the machine platform is equipped with a lifting component, and the lifting component is equipped with a receiving seat. The lifting component drives the receiving seat to move towards or away from the cleaning roller.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the receiving seat can be moved closer to or away from the cleaning roller using a lifting mechanism, allowing for flexible adjustment of its height. When the cleaning roller is being installed, disassembled, or maintained, the receiving seat can rise to a suitable position in a timely manner, providing stable support and preventing damage to the roller due to unstable installation or imbalance, thus ensuring operational safety. During the removal of debris and hair, the receiving seat can be lowered to a position that does not affect the normal rotation of the roller, ensuring smooth equipment operation. Furthermore, this adjustable receiving seat design allows the equipment to adapt to cleaning rollers of different sizes and specifications, broadening its applicability, improving its versatility and practicality, and saving users the cost of equipment replacement.

[0023] In summary, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. Through the cooperation of the first and second fixed rotating components, and the precise adjustment of the spacing adjustment component, stable installation and synchronous dual-end drive are achieved at both ends of the cleaning roller. This ensures smooth and uniform operation of the roller during the removal of debris and hair, avoiding cleaning dead zones caused by uneven force, and improving the efficiency and uniformity of debris and hair removal. Simultaneously, the design of the first and second mounting heads facilitates quick replacement of rollers of different specifications, broadening the applicability of the equipment.

[0025] 2. The position adjustment component allows the cleaning brush to precisely move closer to or further away from the cleaning roller. Adjusting the effective distance between the brush and roller according to their actual size ensures optimal brush contact and efficient removal of debris. The horizontal adjustment scale on the machine base, in conjunction with the horizontal reference block on the mounting bracket, precisely adjusts the distance between the brush and roller, improving the efficiency and accuracy of distance adjustment and further enhancing the quality of debris removal. Furthermore, the lifting mechanism and support seat on the machine base allow for flexible adjustment of the support seat's height, providing stable support for the roller, accommodating rollers of different sizes, and preventing interference with roller rotation during debris removal.

[0032] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1, in this example, refers to Figures 1-2 A cleaning roller lint removal device includes a machine base 1, a first fixed rotating assembly 2, a spacing adjustment assembly 3, a second fixed rotating assembly 4, a position adjustment assembly 5, a cleaning brush 6, and a dust collection assembly 7. The machine base 1 is equipped with the first fixed rotating assembly 2. The spacing adjustment assembly 3 is mounted on the machine base 1 and connected to the second fixed rotating assembly 4. The spacing adjustment assembly 3 adjusts the distance between the second fixed rotating assembly 4 and the first fixed rotating assembly 2. The two ends of the cleaning roller are fixedly mounted on the first fixed rotating assembly 2 and the second fixed rotating assembly 4, respectively. The machine base 1 also has a position adjustment assembly 5, which is equipped with the cleaning brush 6. A dust collection assembly 7 is mounted on the machine base 1 corresponding to the cleaning brush 6, achieving effective fixing and lint removal of cleaning rollers of different sizes through an adjustable structure.

[0034] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 The first fixed rotating assembly 2 includes a fixed base fixed on the machine base 1. A first driving component 22 is mounted on the fixed base. The first driving component 22 is connected to a first rotating shaft 23. The first rotating shaft 23 is provided with a first mounting head 24 for mounting the cleaning roller. The first driving component 22 drives the first rotating shaft 23 to rotate. The first mounting head 24 is provided with a mounting groove 8. The mounting groove 8 can be a horizontal bar structure, and the contact stability with the cleaning roller can be improved by adding rubber gaskets. The first driving component 22 can be a servo motor or a stepper motor, and the power transmission with the first rotating shaft 23 is realized through a transmission belt or gear set.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 The spacing adjustment component 3 includes a guide rail 31 mounted on the machine base 1, a slider 32 mounted on the guide rail 31, and a spacing adjustment drive component 33 connected to the slider 32. The spacing adjustment drive component 33 drives the slider 32 to slide closer to or further away from the first fixed rotating component 2. A second fixed rotating component 4 is mounted on the slider 32. The guide rail 31 can be a linear guide rail 31 or a rolling guide rail 31. The slider 32 slides against the guide rail 31 with low friction via ball bearings or a sliding pair. The spacing adjustment drive component 33 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a lead screw and nut mechanism. Precise positioning of the slider 32 is achieved by controlling the stroke of the drive component.

[0036] Reference Figure 3The second fixed rotating assembly 4 includes a second fixed base 41, on which a second driving member 42 is mounted. The second driving member 42 is connected to a second rotating shaft 43, and the second rotating shaft 43 is equipped with a second mounting head 44 for mounting the cleaning roller. The second driving member 42 drives the second rotating shaft 43 to rotate. The second mounting head 44 may have a similar structure to the first mounting head 24, or may use a different mounting method to adapt to different types of cleaning rollers. The second driving member 42 may also be a servo motor or a stepper motor, and its transmission method is the same as that of the first driving member 22.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 The position adjustment component 5 includes a horizontal slide rail 51, a mounting bracket 52 on the horizontal slide rail 51, and a brush mounting seat 53 on the mounting bracket 52. The mounting bracket 52 can move along the horizontal slide rail 51 towards or away from the cleaning roller. The horizontal slide rail 51 can have a rectangular or circular cross-section design, and the mounting bracket 52 is connected to the horizontal slide rail 51 via a sliding pair or a rolling pair. The brush mounting seat 53 can be used to install cleaning brushes 6 of different types and sizes as needed. The cleaning brushes 6 can use nylon bristles or steel wire brushes to adapt to the surface of the cleaning roller made of different materials.

[0038] Reference Figure 4 The machine base 1 is equipped with a horizontal adjustment scale 54, and the mounting frame 52 is equipped with a horizontal reference block 55, which are used to precisely adjust the distance between the cleaning brush 6 and the cleaning roller. The horizontal adjustment scale 54 can be a ruler or a digital display device, and the horizontal reference block 55 can be fixed to the mounting frame 52 by bolts or magnetic attraction.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The machine base 1 is equipped with a lifting component 9, and a receiving seat 10 is mounted on the lifting component 9. The lifting component 9 drives the receiving seat 10 to move closer to or further away from the cleaning roller. The lifting component 9 can be an electric push rod, a pneumatic cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder, which can flexibly adjust the height of the receiving seat 10. When the cleaning roller is being installed, disassembled, or maintained, the receiving seat 10 can rise to a suitable position in a timely manner to provide stable support for the roller, preventing damage to the roller due to unstable installation or imbalance of the center of gravity, and ensuring the safety of the operation process. During the removal of debris and hair, the receiving seat 10 can also be lowered to a position that does not affect the normal rotation of the roller, ensuring smooth operation of the equipment. Moreover, this adjustable receiving seat 10 design allows the equipment to adapt to cleaning rollers of different sizes and specifications, broadening the scope of application of the equipment, improving its versatility and practicality, and saving users the cost of replacing equipment.

[0040] The vacuum assembly 7 includes a vacuum hood, a vacuum pipe, and a vacuum cleaner. The vacuum hood is positioned above the cleaning brush 6, with its opening facing the cleaning roller, and is used to collect the hair removed by the cleaning brush 6. One end of the vacuum pipe is connected to the vacuum hood, and the other end is connected to the vacuum cleaner, conveying the hair from the vacuum hood into the vacuum cleaner. A household or industrial vacuum cleaner of moderate power can be selected, providing sufficient suction to remove the hair. An internal filter is installed to trap the sucked-in hair, allowing filtered air to escape. For easy cleaning, the filter can be designed to be removable for regular cleaning or replacement. When the equipment is running, starting the vacuum cleaner creates negative pressure at the vacuum hood. Hair generated by the cleaning brush 6 while cleaning the cleaning roller is drawn through the vacuum hood into the vacuum pipe under this negative pressure and ultimately sucked into the filter within the vacuum cleaner, achieving effective hair collection and maintaining a clean working environment.

[0041] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: the first fixed rotating component 2 and the second fixed rotating component 4 work together to securely fix the cleaning roller; the position of the second fixed rotating component 4 is adjusted using the spacing adjustment component 3 to accommodate cleaning rollers of different sizes; the position adjustment component 5 maintains an appropriate distance between the cleaning brush 6 and the surface of the cleaning roller, while the vacuuming component 7 effectively removes debris. This solution not only improves cleaning efficiency but also protects the surface of the cleaning roller from damage, demonstrating good practicality and promotional value.

[0042] In Example 2, the spacing adjustment component 3 adopts a double guide rail 31 structure, with ball bearings on both sides of the slider 32 to improve sliding stability. The position adjustment component 5 adds height and angle adjustment functions. By adding a cylinder to the mounting bracket 52 and mounting the brush mounting seat 53 on the output end of the cylinder, the height of the cleaning brush can be adjusted simultaneously when adjusting the horizontal distance according to the cleaning roller. Furthermore, the angle of the cleaning brush 6 is adjusted via a rotating hinge to adapt to different shaped cleaning roller surfaces. The double guide rail 31 structure further improves the running accuracy and stability of the slider 32. The height-adjustable and angle-adjustable position adjustment component 5 enhances the applicability of the cleaning brush 6, enabling the equipment to better cope with various complex working conditions, thereby further improving cleaning efficiency and equipment reliability.

[0043] In Example 3, clamping devices are added to the first fixed rotating assembly 2 and the second fixed rotating assembly 4 to automatically clamp the cleaning roller using pneumatic or hydraulic grippers. A limiting device is added to the position adjusting assembly 5 to prevent excessive movement of the mounting bracket 52 that could damage the equipment. The introduction of the clamping device increases the automation level of the equipment and reduces the need for manual operation; the limiting device effectively avoids equipment damage caused by misoperation, improving the safety and durability of the equipment and further optimizing its overall performance.

[0044] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
