[0024] To make the technical solution of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 A cylindrical workpiece internal cleaning device includes a shell 1, which is a hollow structure. An installation plate 2 is fixedly installed inside the shell 1. The installation plate 2 is fixedly installed on the upper and lower sides inside the shell 1. A telescopic cylinder 3 is fixedly installed between the upper and lower symmetrical installation plates 2. A cleaning block 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the telescopic shaft 31 of the telescopic cylinder 3.

[0027] The cleaning block 4 consists of a brush 41 and a fixing member 42 located on the upper side of the brush 41. The fixing member 42 and the brush 41 are combined and fixed to form the cleaning block 4. The bottom of the fixing member 42 is provided with a brush fixing screw 47. The brush 41 is sleeved on the brush fixing screw 47. A nut 48 can be inserted into the brush fixing screw 47. After the brush 41 is sleeved on the brush fixing screw 47, the brush is fixed on the brush fixing screw 47 by tightening the nut 48.

[0028] The shape of the brush 41 corresponds to the cylindrical part that needs to be cleaned. The brush 41 is preferably cylindrical and made of a soft material, preferably a sponge or rubber material, or other soft materials that can be elastically deformed. This prevents the brush from moving along the inner surface of the cylindrical part when it moves in the part that needs to be cleaned, thus preventing scratches from appearing on the inner surface of the cylindrical part.

[0029] The brush 41 is interference-fitted with the cylindrical part that needs to be cleaned, so that the brush 41 can fully and tightly fit the inner surface of the cylindrical part, thereby removing the processing debris attached to the inner surface of the cylindrical part when the brush moves.

[0030] The telescopic cylinder 3 on the mounting plate 2 is fixed to the side of the bushing seat 5. The bushing seat 5 is slidably provided with an air pipe 6. The air pipe 6 slides up and down in the bushing seat 5. The air pipe 6 passes through the bushing seat 5 and extends out of the mounting plate 2 located on the lower side. The bottom of the air pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the cleaning block 4. The air pipe 5 is directly fixedly connected to the fixing member 42.

[0031] The cleaning block 4 is fixed by the telescopic cylinder 3 and the air pipe 3, thereby preventing the cleaning block from rotating during use.

[0032] The air tube 6 has a hollow structure and is used for ventilation. The fixing member 42 is provided with a gas transmission channel 45. The fixing member 42 is preferably cylindrical. The gas transmission channel inside the fixing member 42 includes an air inlet channel 43, an upper blowing channel 44, a transmission channel 45, and a lower blowing channel 46.

[0033] The air intake channel 43 is connected to the bottom of the air pipe 6. The gas transmitted by the air pipe 6 enters the air intake channel 43. The lower side of the air intake channel 43 is connected to the upper air blowing channel 44. The upper air blowing channel 44 is arranged from the inside of the fixing member outward. The upper air blowing channel 44 consists of multiple pipes arranged around the lower side of the air intake channel 43. The outer ports of the upper air blowing channel 44 are distributed on the outer surface of the fixing member 42. The outer ports of the upper air blowing channel 44 are evenly spaced on the outer surface of the fixing member 42, so that the upper air blowing channel 44 can blow air to various positions on the inner surface of the cylindrical component when it vents.

[0034] The transmission channel 45 is set inside the brush fixing screw 47, and the upper air blowing channel 44 is set on the brush fixing screw 47 below the nut 48. The transmission channel 45 connects the upper air blowing channel 44 with the upper air blowing channel 44, so that when the air intake channel 43 intakes air, the airflow can enter the upper air blowing channel 44 and the upper air blowing channel 44.

[0035] After the nut 48 is tightened onto the brush fixing screw 47 to fix the brush, the outer port of the upper air blowing channel 44 is located below the nut 48, so that the nut 48 will not obstruct the air outlet of the upper air blowing channel 44. The ports of the upper air blowing channel 44 are also arranged equidistantly around the brush fixing screw 47.

[0036] The air blowing channels at the top and bottom of the cleaning block 4 blow up the inner surface of the cylindrical component before the brush, which can remove the impurities attached to the inner surface of the component before the brush pushes the impurities. This prevents the impurities from forming scratches on the inner surface of the cylindrical component when the brush pushes the impurities. The upper air blowing channel 44 located on the upper side can also blow the impurities on the top surface of the cylindrical component outward to prevent them from re-entering the cylindrical component.

[0037] The bottom of the outer casing 1 has an opening, the size of which is larger than that of the cleaning block 4. The telescopic shaft 31 of the telescopic air rod 3 and the air tube 6 extend out from the opening, and the cleaning block 4 can be suspended at the opening position at the bottom of the outer casing 1.

[0038] Sensors 7, preferably photoelectric sensors or magnetic sensors, are fixedly installed on the inner sides of the mounting plates 2 on both the upper and lower sides. These sensors 7 are used to determine the standby and extreme positions of the cleaning structure 4. A baffle 8 is fixedly installed on the air pipe 6, located on the upper side of the air pipe 6. When the cleaning block 4 is in the hovering position, the baffle 8 corresponds to the upper sensor 7. When the cleaning block 4 has finished cleaning the cylindrical component, the baffle 8 corresponds to the lower sensor 7. The sensor 7 and the baffle 8 cooperate. When the sensor 7 is a photoelectric sensor, the baffle blocks the sensor 7 to achieve position sensing. When the sensor 7 is a magnetic sensor, the baffle 8 and the sensor 7 are magnetically engaged.

[0039] The mounting plate 2 located on the lower side has a cleaning air blowing component 9 at the opening of the outer shell. The cleaning air blowing component 9 is located on both sides of the mounting position of the telescopic cylinder 3 on the lower mounting plate 2. When the cleaning block 4 is suspended at the opening position, the cleaning air blowing component 9 is opened to blow air to clean the brush and remove impurities from the brush.

[0040] The telescopic cylinder 3 is equipped with a magnetic induction switch and an external guide rod proximity switch to prevent unnecessary stoppages in the automatic line if the cylinder induction switch malfunctions. The telescopic cylinder 3 also features pilot one-way control. During up and down cleaning, the pilot one-way control prevents the cleaning head from falling down immediately after the air supply is cut off, and keeps it in the original position.

[0041] A limiting sleeve 51 can be fixedly installed inside the housing 1. The limiting sleeve 51 is installed on the lower side of the sensor located on the lower side to prevent the limiting sleeve 51 from blocking the baffle 8 from cooperating with the sensor 7 located on the lower side.

[0042] An air tank 10 is also fixedly installed inside the outer casing 1 on the side of the mounting plate 2. The air tank 10 is used to supply air to the telescopic air rod 3, the air pipe 6, and the cleaning air blowing component 9. An air supply hose is connected between the air tank 10 and the air supply to the telescopic air rod 3 and the air pipe 6.

[0043] The cleaning device can be directly installed on the machining line of the machine tool. It can be equipped with a bolt fixing structure that cooperates with the machine tool. The cleaning device is fixed to the production line by bolts, so that after the machine tool finishes processing the cylindrical workpiece, the cleaning device can directly clean the inside of the cylindrical workpiece, which is convenient and quick.

[0044] When in use, the telescopic air rod 3 is opened, which drives the telescopic shaft 31 to descend. The lower side of the telescopic shaft 31 drives the cleaning block 4 to move. The air tank 10 supplies air to the air pipe 6. The upper air blowing channel 44 and the lower air blowing channel 46 on the cleaning block 4 blow air. As the cleaning block 4 moves, it can initially blow away the iron filings attached to the inner wall of the cylindrical workpiece. Then the brush 41 cleans it, causing the iron filings to fall into the machine tool instantly.

[0045] After cleaning is completed, the telescopic cylinder 3 drives the cleaning block 4 to rise. The cleaning block 4 is suspended between the cleaning air blowers 9, and the cleaning air blowers 9 blow air onto the cleaning block 4 to remove the impurities left on the cleaning block 4.

[0046] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
