Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metal cleaning agent technology, and in particular relates to a metal cleaning agent viscosity detection device. Background Technology

[0002] Metal cleaning agents are chemical cleaning agents specifically designed to remove contaminants such as oil, rust, and particulate impurities from metal surfaces. They are commonly used in industries such as machining, automobile manufacturing, and electronics to improve the cleanliness of parts and the effectiveness of subsequent processing. Their performance stability and cleaning effect are closely related to viscosity. Viscosity testing reflects the fluidity and wetting properties of the cleaning agent and is an important indicator for evaluating its quality and performance. Accurate viscosity testing helps control product ratios, ensure cleaning efficiency, and extend equipment lifespan, meeting the demands of modern industry for efficient and environmentally friendly cleaning processes.

[0003] However, existing technologies have some problems: after testing the viscosity of metal cleaning agents, the cleaning agent is usually injected into a test chamber or equipment housing to simulate the actual use environment for flowability assessment. After the test, the residual metal cleaning agent is difficult to completely remove or recycle, especially at high viscosity, where it is more likely to adhere to the inner wall surface. This not only leads to a large waste of cleaning agent and increases production costs, but may also affect the accuracy of the next round of testing, reduce the working efficiency and reusability of the testing equipment, and restrict the cleanliness and economy of the overall process. Therefore, we propose a metal cleaning agent viscosity testing device. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a metal cleaning agent viscosity detection device.

[0005] This invention is implemented as follows: a metal cleaning agent viscosity testing device includes a testing tank, and further includes: a motor fixedly installed on the upper part of the testing tank; a support frame fixedly installed on the lower part of the motor output shaft, the support frame being rotatably installed inside the testing tank; an impeller rotatably installed on the outside of the support frame, the impeller rolling and adhering to the inner wall of the testing tank; a gear fixed on the upper part of the impeller; and a gear ring fixed on the upper part of the testing tank, the gear ring meshing with the gear. When the motor starts, it drives the impeller to revolve around the support frame and rotate around itself, performing a rapid cleaning action on the inner wall of the testing tank.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the upper part of the testing tank is covered with a tank cover, the motor is fixedly installed on the upper part of the tank cover, and the gear ring is fixed on the lower part of the tank cover.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the motor is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft passing through the lower part of the can lid, and the support frame is fixed to the outside of the rotating shaft.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, multiple impellers are provided, and the multiple impellers are evenly arranged circumferentially on the upper part of the support frame.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, each impeller is fixedly connected to a plurality of helical blades. When the impeller rotates, the metal scraped from the inner wall of the detection tank is transferred to the bottom of the detection tank by the influence of the helical blades.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a plurality of shovels are fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame, and each shovel is provided with a collection trough for collecting residual metal cleaning agent. The collection trough receives the residual metal cleaning agent scooped up by the shovels and the residual metal cleaning agent transmitted down by the impeller.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the detection device further includes a detection component. The detection component includes a base fixed outside the rotating shaft. A sliding plate is slidably mounted inside the base via a guide plate. One end of the sliding plate extends through the base to the outside and is fixedly connected to a blade for contacting the metal cleaning agent. There are two sliding plates, and a rotating ring fixed between the two sliding plates is rotatably mounted inside the base. One end of the guide plate is fixedly connected to a piston plate slidably mounted inside the air chamber of the base. A pressure detection element for communicating with the outside is fixedly mounted inside the base. When the motor starts, the blade is obstructed and drives the piston plate to move and compress the gas. The pressure detection element monitors the real-time air pressure and transmits it to an external computer for translating the real-time viscosity of the metal cleaning agent.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention utilizes a motor mounted on the upper part of the testing tank to drive a support frame connected below the output shaft to rotate. This, in turn, drives an impeller mounted on the support frame to move synchronously. The impeller maintains rolling contact with the inner wall of the testing tank through its outer edge. Driven by the motor, it generates a dual motion through gear meshing with a gear ring fixed on the upper part of the testing tank: on one hand, the impeller revolves along the inner wall of the testing tank, and on the other hand, the impeller rotates around its own axis, achieving all-round wiping and cleaning of the inner wall of the tank. By replacing manual or single-point rinsing with mechanical motion, this invention not only significantly improves cleaning efficiency but also quickly removes the high-viscosity metal cleaning agent residue on the tank wall after viscosity testing, preventing its adhesion and reducing cleaning agent waste. At the same time, it effectively ensures the accuracy of subsequent test data and the clean use of the equipment. This facilitates the integrated operation of viscosity testing and tank cleaning, improving the automation level and economy of the entire testing process. It is particularly suitable for high-frequency, batch metal cleaning agent performance testing scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To further understand the utility model content, features and effects of this utility model, the following embodiments are provided, and detailed descriptions are given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] The structure of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a metal cleaning agent viscosity testing device, including a testing tank 1, and further including: a motor 3 fixedly installed on the upper part of the testing tank 1; a support frame 5 fixedly installed on the lower part of the output shaft of the motor 3, the support frame 5 being rotatably installed inside the testing tank 1; an impeller 6 rotatably installed on the outside of the support frame 5, the impeller 6 rolling and adhering to the inner wall of the testing tank 1; a gear 7 fixed on the upper part of the impeller 6; and a gear ring 9 fixed on the upper part of the testing tank 1, the gear ring 9 being meshed with the gear 7. When the motor 3 is started, it drives the impeller 6 to revolve around the support frame 5 and rotate around itself, performing a rapid cleaning action on the inner wall of the testing tank 1.

[0023] The aforementioned metal cleaning agent viscosity testing device uses a motor 3 installed on the upper part of the testing tank 1 to drive the support frame 5 connected below the output shaft to rotate, thereby driving the impeller 6 installed on the support frame 5 to achieve synchronous movement.

[0024] Impeller 6 maintains rolling contact with the inner wall of the detection tank 1 through its outer edge, and under the drive of motor 3, it generates a dual motion by relying on gear 7 meshing with the gear ring 9 fixed on the upper part of the detection tank 1: on the one hand, impeller 6 revolves along the inner wall of the detection tank 1, and on the other hand, impeller 6 rotates around its own axis, thereby achieving all-round wiping and cleaning of the inner wall of the tank.

[0025] This structure replaces manual or single-point rinsing with mechanical motion, which not only significantly improves cleaning efficiency but also quickly removes high-viscosity metal cleaning agent residues on the tank wall after viscosity testing, preventing adhesion and reducing waste. At the same time, it effectively ensures the accuracy of subsequent test data and the clean use of the equipment, facilitating the integrated operation of viscosity testing and tank cleaning, improving the automation level and economy of the entire testing process, and is particularly suitable for high-frequency, batch metal cleaning agent performance testing scenarios.

[0026] In this embodiment, the upper part of the testing tank 1 is covered with a tank cover 2, the motor 3 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the tank cover 2, and the gear ring 9 is fixed on the lower part of the tank cover 2. The motor 3 passes through the lower part of the tank cover 2 and is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 4. The support frame 5 is fixed outside the rotating shaft 4. Multiple impellers 6 are provided, and the multiple impellers 6 are evenly arranged on the upper part of the support frame 5. Several spiral blades 12 are fixedly connected to the outside of each impeller 6. When the impeller 6 rotates, it is affected by the spiral blades 12 and the metal scraped from the inner wall of the testing tank 1 is transferred to the bottom of the testing tank 1.

[0027] A set of linkage cleaning mechanisms is driven by a motor 3 installed at the top; the motor 3 passes through the tank cover 2 set at the top of the detection tank 1 through its output shaft and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4 installed inside the tank, forming a vertical rotation transmission path; the lower end of the rotating shaft 4 is connected to a support frame 5, which serves as a power output platform for mounting multiple impeller 6 assemblies.

[0028] These impellers 6 are evenly distributed around the support frame 5, so that they can cover the entire inner wall of the test tank 1 during rotation. Each impeller 6 has several spiral blades 12 on its outside. The outer edge of the blades is in close contact with the inner wall of the test tank 1. When rotating, it can not only scrape off the high-viscosity metal cleaning agent adhering to the tank wall, but also effectively transport and push the cleaning agent to the bottom of the tank due to the flow guiding function of the spiral structure.

[0029] Furthermore, by setting a fixed toothed ring 9 at the lower part of the tank cover 2, the toothed ring 9 meshes with the gear 7 on the upper part of the impeller 6, forming the structural basis for the rotation of the impeller 6. After the motor 3 starts, the rotating shaft 4 drives the support frame 5 to revolve, and at the same time, the toothed ring 9 and the gear 7 cooperate to make the impeller 6 rotate on its own. In this way, the impeller 6 can perform high-speed, uniform and effective scraping of the tank wall in the dual rotation trajectory of revolution and rotation, thereby quickly removing residual metal cleaning agent and transferring it to the bottom, significantly improving the cleaning speed and residual liquid recovery efficiency.

[0030] In this embodiment, a number of shovels 10 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame 5. Each shovel 10 is provided with a collection tank 11 for collecting residual metal cleaning agent. The collection tank 11 receives the residual metal cleaning agent shoveled up by the shovels 10 and the residual metal cleaning agent transmitted by the impeller 6.

[0031] Several shovels 10 are evenly spaced along the circumference at the bottom of the support frame 5. Each shovel 10 is structurally inclined or flat and is close to the bottom surface of the test tank 1. When the motor 3 drives the rotating shaft 4 and the support frame 5 to rotate, these shovels 10 revolve synchronously with the support frame 5. Their movement trajectory covers the entire bottom of the tank. During the rotation, the shovels 10 sweep the residual liquid at the bottom like a sweeper, and push the residual cleaning agent at the bottom of the tank that has not been recovered to a specific direction or concentration point.

[0032] To further improve collection efficiency, each shovel plate 10 is equipped with an integrated collection tank 11. The collection tank 11 has a groove-shaped structure with an upward opening, which can directly receive two sources of residual liquid: one is the liquid at the bottom actively scooped up by the shovel plate 10 during rotation, and the other is the cleaning agent that is naturally dripped to the bottom by the spiral blades 12 of the impeller 6. This avoids the cleaning agent remaining in the tank after testing, improves resource utilization, reduces the risk of secondary pollution, and provides convenience for subsequent recycling, discharge or reuse.

[0033] In this embodiment, the detection device further includes a detection component 8, which includes a base 801 fixed outside the rotating shaft 4. Inside the base 801, a slide plate 802 is slidably mounted via a guide plate 803. One end of the slide plate 802 extends through the base 801 to the outside and is fixedly connected to a blade 805 for contacting the metal cleaning agent. There are two slide plates 802. A rotating ring 806 fixed between the two slide plates 802 is rotatably mounted inside the base 801. One end of the guide plate 803 is fixedly connected to a piston plate 804 slidably mounted in the air chamber of the base 801. A pressure detection element for communicating with the outside is fixedly mounted inside the base 801. When the motor 3 starts, the blade 805 is obstructed and drives the piston plate 804 to move and compress the gas. The pressure detection element monitors the real-time air pressure and transmits it to an external computer to translate the real-time viscosity of the metal cleaning agent.

[0034] The detection component 8 works in conjunction with the rotating mechanism via a base 801 mounted outside the rotating shaft 4. The base 801 contains two sets of sliding plates 802, which are precisely guided by a guide plate 803, enabling the sliding plates 802 to move smoothly back and forth along a specific trajectory. One end of the sliding plate 802 extends out of the base 801 and connects to a blade 805 located inside the tank.

[0035] The blade 805 is the component that comes into direct contact with the metal cleaning agent. Its function is to use the liquid to create resistance to its movement. The magnitude of the resistance reflects the viscosity of the cleaning agent. When the device is running, the blade 805 enters the surface of the cleaning agent liquid along with the rotating mechanism. Under the action of the liquid resistance, it drives the slide plate 802 to push towards the rear end. The other end of the slide plate 802 is fixedly connected to the piston plate 804 in the air chamber, thereby converting this mechanical resistance into a gas compression process.

[0036] As the slide plate 802 is obstructed, it pushes the piston plate 804, and the piston moves in the air chamber, compressing the air in the chamber. At this time, the air pressure detection device set inside the base 801 collects the pressure change of the compressed gas in real time and sends its signal data to the external computer system. The external computing system translates the corresponding viscosity value of the metal cleaning agent in real time based on the relationship model between air pressure and liquid resistance.

[0037] This detection principle transforms the complex fluid resistance problem into the measurement of physical quantities of mechanical motion and air pressure changes, avoiding the cumbersome steps of traditional viscometers such as sampling, cleaning, and maintenance of cleaning agents, while realizing dynamic, non-contact, and high-precision viscosity detection functions.

[0038] The working principle of this utility model:

[0039] In use, a motor 3 is installed on the upper part of the detection tank 1, which drives the support frame 5 connected below the output shaft to rotate, thereby driving the impeller 6 installed on the support frame 5 to achieve synchronous movement. The impeller 6 keeps rolling contact with the inner wall of the detection tank 1 through its outer edge, and under the drive of the motor 3, it generates a dual movement by relying on the meshing of the gear 7 and the gear ring 9 fixed on the upper part of the detection tank 1: on the one hand, the impeller 6 revolves along the inner wall of the detection tank 1, and on the other hand, the impeller 6 rotates around its own axis, so as to achieve all-round wiping and cleaning of the inner wall of the tank.
