[0027] Example 1
[0028] An all-around cleaning device for aluminum alloy castings, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it includes a moving component 1 and a cleaning tank 6. The moving component 1 has the same combined structure of frame and sliding component as in the Chinese patent publication number CN220781596U. The moving end of the moving component 1 is fixedly connected to a fixed frame 2. Multiple telescopic rods 3 are fixedly installed on the bottom inner wall of the fixed frame 2. The telescopic ends of the telescopic rods 3 pass through the fixed frame 2 and are fixedly connected to a rotating frame 4. The inner wall of the rotating frame 4 is rotatably connected to a receiving chamber 5 for placing aluminum alloy castings.
[0029] The cleaning tank 6 has a cleaning chamber 7 inside. Multiple ultrasonic generators 16 are installed inside the cleaning tank 6, located on both sides of the bottom of the cleaning chamber 7. The ultrasonic generators 16 are existing mature technology and will not be described in detail here. A sliding groove 8 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning tank 6, and the bottom of the cleaning chamber 7 communicates with the sliding groove 8. A collection groove 9 is slidably fitted on the inner wall of the sliding groove 8, and a filter plate is located at the bottom of the collection groove 9. A connecting cavity 10 is provided below the sliding groove 8, communicating with it. A discharge pipe 11 is connected to one side of the connecting cavity 10, and a solenoid valve is installed in the middle section of the discharge pipe 11. A limiting groove 12 is provided on the side wall of the cleaning tank 6 at one end of the sliding groove 8. A sealing gasket 13 is fixed to the inner wall of the limiting groove 12. A fixing plate 14 is fixed to one end of the collection groove 9, and the fixing plate 14 is in a limiting fit with the limiting groove 12. Hand-tightening bolts 15 are threaded to the four corners of the outer wall of the fixing plate 14, and one end of each hand-tightening bolt is threaded to the cleaning tank 6.
[0030] The side wall of the receiving chamber 5 is provided with a door 20, and a fixing block 21 is fixed to the outer wall of the receiving chamber 5. A fixing groove is opened on the outer wall of the fixing block 21, and a limiting slide plate 23 is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the fixing groove. A limiting block 22 is fixed to one end of the door 20, and the limiting slide plate 23 is engaged with the limiting block 22. A spring connected to the side wall of the limiting slide plate 23 is installed on the inner wall of the fixing block 21.
[0031] Gears 18 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft of the receiving chamber 5, and rack 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cleaning chamber 7. The gears 18 and rack 17 are engaged in transmission.
[0032] During cleaning, the user pushes the limiting slide plate 23 to one side. The limiting slide plate 23 moves along the fixing groove, causing it to move away from the limiting block 22. The spring stretches and deforms, allowing the limiting block 22 to move out of the fixing groove, opening the door 20 to the outside of the receiving chamber 5. The user places the casting inside the receiving chamber 5, then reverses the door 20 to close the receiving chamber 5. Pushing the limiting slide plate 23 allows one end of the limiting block 22 to enter the fixing groove. Then, the user releases the limiting slide plate 23, and the spring moves one end of the limiting slide plate 23 above the limiting block 22, fixing the limiting block 22. The moving component 1 moves the receiving chamber 5 above the cleaning tank 6, and the telescopic rod 3 extends, moving the receiving chamber 5 into the cleaning chamber 7. The cleaning chamber 7 is filled with cleaning fluid. Wheel 18 meshes with rack 17, and telescopic rod 3 drives the receiving chamber 5 to move up and down reciprocally. Through the meshing of gear 18 and rack 17, the receiving chamber 5 is rotated, causing the casting to flip in the receiving chamber 5. At the same time, ultrasonic generator 16 works to clean the casting with ultrasonic waves. When changing the cleaning fluid, collection tank 9 filters the cleaning fluid, so that the dirt washed off is collected in collection tank 9. Then the cleaning fluid is discharged through discharge pipe 11. The solenoid valve is opened and the cleaning fluid is discharged from discharge pipe 11. After the cleaning fluid is completely discharged, multiple hand-tightening bolts 15 are unscrewed, and collection tank 9 is pulled out of sliding groove 8 for cleaning. This can prevent dirt from remaining in collection tank 9. Then collection tank 9 is inserted into sliding groove 8, fixing plate 14 enters limiting groove 12, and sealing gasket 13 seals.
[0033] With the addition of a sliding groove 8, a collection groove 9, a limiting groove 12, a sealing gasket 13, a fixing plate 14, and a hand-tightening bolt 15, the collection groove 9 can be pulled out from the sliding groove 8 and emptied for cleaning after the cleaning fluid is discharged, thus preventing dirt from remaining in the collection groove 9.
[0034] By incorporating a fixing block 21, a limiting block 22, and a limiting slide plate 23, the door 20 opens outwards, which avoids obstructing the removal of castings when the door 20 opens into the receiving chamber 5. Compared to opening inwards, the door 20 can be made larger to facilitate the placement of castings and avoids the door 20 being too large and affecting the removal of castings when opening inwards.
[0035] Example 2
[0036] An all-around cleaning device for aluminum alloy castings, this embodiment is based on embodiment 1, with the following improvements, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the inner walls of the receiving chamber 5 and the chamber door 20 are both fixed with multiple parallel buffer strips 19, which are arranged in a straight line along the axis of the receiving chamber 5.
[0037] When the casting is turned over in the receiving chamber 5, the buffer strip 19 can support the casting and prevent the casting from colliding directly with the inner wall of the receiving chamber 5, which may cause damage to the casting.
[0038] The buffer strip 19 can support the casting and prevent it from colliding directly with the inner wall of the container 5, thus avoiding potential damage to the casting.
[0039] Working principle: During cleaning, the user pushes the limiting slide plate 23 to one side. The limiting slide plate 23 moves along the fixed groove, causing it to move away from the limiting block 22. The spring stretches and deforms, allowing the limiting block 22 to move out of the fixed groove, opening the door 20 to the outside of the receiving chamber 5. The user places the casting inside the receiving chamber 5, then reverses the door 20 to close the receiving chamber 5. Pushing the limiting slide plate 23 allows one end of the limiting block 22 to enter the fixed groove. Then, the user releases the limiting slide plate 23, and the spring moves one end of the limiting slide plate 23 above the limiting block 22, fixing the limiting block 22. The moving component 1 moves the receiving chamber 5 above the cleaning tank 6. The telescopic rod 3 extends, moving the receiving chamber 5 into the cleaning chamber 7, which is filled with cleaning fluid. The gear 18 meshes with the rack 17, and the telescopic rod 3 moves the receiving chamber 5 into the cleaning chamber 7. The receiving chamber 5 moves up and down, and the meshing of gear 18 and rack 17 drives the receiving chamber 5 to rotate, causing the casting to flip in the receiving chamber 5. The buffer strip 19 can support the casting and prevent the casting from directly colliding with the inner wall of the receiving chamber 5, which may cause damage to the casting. At the same time, the ultrasonic generator 16 works to clean the casting with ultrasonic waves. When changing the cleaning fluid, the collection tank 9 filters the cleaning fluid, so that the dirt washed off is collected in the collection tank 9. Then the cleaning fluid is discharged through the discharge pipe 11. The solenoid valve is opened and the cleaning fluid is discharged from the discharge pipe 11. After the cleaning fluid is completely discharged, the multiple hand-tightening bolts 15 are unscrewed, and the collection tank 9 is pulled out of the sliding groove 8 and emptied for cleaning, which can prevent dirt from remaining in the collection tank 9. Then the collection tank 9 is inserted into the sliding groove 8, the fixing plate 14 is inserted into the limiting groove 12, and the sealing gasket 13 is sealed.
