[0026] The structure of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, the surface treatment equipment for end cap processing provided by this utility model includes an ultrasonic cleaner 1. The inner cavity of the ultrasonic cleaner 1 is provided with a mesh basket 2. The top of the ultrasonic cleaner 1 is provided with a protective frame 3. Pushing devices 4 are provided on the left and right sides of the top of the mesh basket 2. A support frame 5 is provided on the top of the rear side of the mesh basket 2. A sliding column 6 is provided on the inner side of the support frame 5.

[0028] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The bottom of the protective frame 3 is fixedly connected to the ultrasonic cleaner 1, the front side of the support frame 5 is fixedly connected to the basket 2, and the front and rear sides of the sliding column 6 are fixedly connected to the support frame 5 and the basket 2 respectively.

[0029] The above solution, by setting up the support frame 5 and the sliding column 6, can support and limit the net basket 2, making it convenient for users to use the net basket 2.

[0031] The above solution is adopted: by setting the stroke hole 8, the moving wheel 403 can be squeezed and pushed to reciprocate during the process of the moving wheel 403 moving in the cavity of the stroke hole 8. By setting the rectangular through hole 9 and the limiting post 10, the push plate 703 can be limited.

[0033] The above solution is adopted: by setting up a pushing device 4, the net basket 2 can be pushed to move during the lifting and lowering process, so as to make the end cover of the inner cavity of the net basket 2 shake, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the end cover.

[0034] refer to Figure 3 The lifting device 7 includes a motor 701, a screw 702 is provided on the top of the motor 701, a push plate 703 is sleeved on the surface of the screw 702, and a connecting rod 704 is provided at the bottom of the push plate 703.

[0035] The above solution is adopted: by setting up the lifting device 7, the net basket 2 can be lifted and lowered, which makes it convenient for operators to place and retrieve the net basket 2.

[0036] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The bottom of the linkage rod 401 is fixedly connected to the basket 2. The side of the connecting post 402 near the linkage rod 401 is fixedly connected to the linkage rod 401. The side of the connecting post 402 away from the linkage rod 401 passes through the stroke hole 8 and extends into the inner cavity of the stroke hole 8 to be rotatably connected to the moving wheel 403. The side of the moving wheel 403 near the inner wall of the stroke hole 8 contacts the inner wall of the stroke hole 8.

[0037] The above scheme is adopted: by setting the linkage rod 401, the basket 2 can be driven to move back and forth, thereby causing the end cover of the inner cavity of the basket 2 to shake. By setting the connecting column 402, the linkage rod 401 can be driven to move. By setting the moving wheel 403, the connecting column 402 can be driven to move back and forth synchronously.

[0038] refer to Figures 1 to 4 The front side of the motor 701 is fixedly connected to the ultrasonic cleaner 1, the bottom of the screw 702 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 701, the rear side of the push plate 703 is threadedly connected to the screw 702, the front side of the push plate 703 passes through the rectangular through hole 9 and extends to the inner side of the protective frame 3 and is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 704, the middle of the push plate 703 is sleeved on the surface of the limiting post 10, the bottom of the connecting rod 704 is sleeved on the surface of the sliding post 6 and is slidably connected to the sliding post 6 through a linear bearing.

[0039] The above scheme is adopted as follows: by setting up motor 701, the screw 702 can be driven to rotate; by setting up screw 702, the push plate 703 can be driven to rise and fall; by setting up push plate 703, the connecting rod 704 can be driven to rise and fall synchronously; by setting up connecting rod 704, the sliding column 6, the support frame 5 and the basket 2 can be driven to rise and fall synchronously.

[0040] The working principle of this utility model:

[0041] In use, the operator places the end cap to be cleaned into the inner cavity of the mesh basket 2, and then starts the motor 701 to rotate forward, driving the screw 702 to rotate. During the rotation of the screw 702, it will drive the push plate 703 to move downward. The push plate 703 will drive the connecting rod 704 to move downward synchronously. The connecting rod 704 will drive the mesh basket 2 to move downward synchronously through the sliding column 6, so that the end cap of the inner cavity of the mesh basket 2 enters the inner cavity of the ultrasonic cleaner 1 for cleaning.

[0042] Simultaneously, during the process of moving the basket 2 downwards, the linkage rod 401 will also move downwards synchronously. The linkage rod 401 will drive the moving wheel 403 to move along the trajectory of the inner cavity of the stroke hole 8 through the connecting column 402. During the movement, the moving wheel 403 will drive the connecting column 402 to move back and forth. The connecting column 402 will drive the basket 2, the sliding column 6 and the support frame 5 to move back and forth synchronously through the linkage rod 401. During the back and forth movement of the basket 2, the end cap of the inner cavity will shake.

[0043] During the cleaning process of the end cap inside the ultrasonic cleaner 1, the motor 701 intermittently reverses forward and backward, causing the basket 2 to reciprocate up and down inside the ultrasonic cleaner 1. During the reciprocating up and down process, the basket 2 also moves back and forth, causing the end cap inside the basket 2 to shake, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the end cap. When the end cap is cleaned, the motor 701 is started to reverse, causing the basket 2 to move upward and reset, thereby removing the end cap from the inner cavity of the ultrasonic cleaner 1, completing the work.

[0044] In summary, this surface treatment equipment for end cap processing, through the coordinated use of a mesh basket 2, a protective frame 3, a pushing device 4, a support frame 5, a sliding column 6, and a lifting device 7, solves the problem of existing ultrasonic cleaning machines requiring operators to first place the end cap to be cleaned in the inner cavity of the mesh basket, then manually place it into the inner cavity of the ultrasonic cleaner for cleaning, and finally manually remove the mesh basket from the inner cavity of the ultrasonic cleaner after cleaning. This process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and during the cleaning process, the end cap is usually stationary in the inner cavity of the mesh basket, which may result in the contact area between the end cap and the mesh basket not being adequately cleaned, thus affecting the cleaning effect of the end cap.
