Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning technology for knitting machine parts, and in particular to an adjustable knitting machine needle plate cleaning tool. Background Technology

[0002] The needle plate of a knitting machine is an important component of the machine. It is usually a plate-shaped structure made of metal and serves as the basic support for the entire needle plate. It is mainly used in flat knitting machines. The needles on the needle plate are arranged perpendicular to the running direction of the knitting machine. It can usually perform flat knitting or cylindrical knitting and can knit fabrics of various shapes and sizes, such as sweaters, scarves, and hats.

[0003] During long-term use, the needle plate of a knitting machine will be affected by the accumulation of impurities such as yarn fibers, dust, and oil, which will affect its working performance and knitting quality. Therefore, it needs to be cleaned regularly. However, if the staff only rinses the needle plate with water jets and cleaning solutions, the simple water jet rinsing is not enough to achieve a thorough cleaning effect, resulting in poor overall cleaning results.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes an adjustable knitting machine needle plate cleaning tool to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes an adjustable knitting machine needle plate cleaning tool to solve the problem in the prior art where the needle plate is only rinsed with water jets and cleaning fluid. Simple water jet rinsing is insufficient to achieve a thorough cleaning effect, resulting in poor overall cleaning performance.

[0006] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the present utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: an adjustable knitting machine needle plate cleaning tool, including a cleaning box, a clamping frame provided inside the cleaning box, two connecting rods fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the clamping frame, the connecting rods passing through the inside of the cleaning box on the side away from the clamping frame and fixedly installed with a fixing block, an electric telescopic rod fixedly installed on the top of the clamping frame, the power output shaft of the electric telescopic rod passing through the top of the clamping frame and fixedly installed with a clamping component, a rotating rod rotatably connected inside the cleaning box and located on the left and right sides of the clamping frame, a first cam fixedly installed near the center of the outer surface of the rotating rod and fitted with the clamping frame, a drive motor for driving the adjacent first cam to rotate fixedly installed on the rear side of the cleaning box, and a cleaning component provided inside the cleaning box and located on the front and rear sides of the clamping frame for cleaning the needle plate.

[0007] A further improvement is that a first grooved wheel and a second grooved wheel are rotatably connected to the front side of the cleaning box. The surfaces of the first grooved wheel and the second grooved wheel are connected by a belt drive. The rear ends of the first grooved wheel and the second grooved wheel pass through the front side of the cleaning box and are fixedly connected to the front end of the adjacent rotating rod.

[0008] A further improvement is that the cleaning component includes a mounting base, the side wall of which is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the cleaning box via a lifting groove, an adjusting plate is slidably connected to the side of the mounting base near the clamping frame, a brush is fixedly installed on the side of the adjusting plate away from the mounting base, support blocks are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the mounting base near the center, and a second cam is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating rod near the front and rear ends, with the top of the second cam fitting against the bottom of the adjacent support block.

[0009] A further improvement is that: a threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting base; a threaded hole adapted to the threaded rod is opened on the side of the mounting base away from the brush; a movable block is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting base away from the clamping frame; an movable opening is opened on the inner side of the cleaning box for the movable block to slide up and down; and an adjusting block that drives the threaded rod to rotate is rotatably connected to the surface of the movable block.

[0010] A further improvement is that two clips are fixedly installed on one side of the brush, and a slot adapted to the clips is provided on the inner side of the mounting base.

[0011] A further improvement is made in that: a lifting block is slidably connected to the inner side of the card block near the top and bottom; two lifting rods are slidably connected to the inner side of the lifting block; the top and bottom ends of the lifting rods are fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the card block; a spring is provided on the inner side of the card block and at the outer edge of the lifting rods to drive the lifting block to slide upward; a positioning block is fixedly installed on the side of the lifting block away from the spring; the positioning block extends through the inner side of the card block and outwards on the side away from the lifting block; and a positioning opening adapted to the positioning block is opened on the inner side of the mounting base.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The drive motor drives the rotating rod to rotate the first and second cams, which in turn pushes the clamping frame to move back and forth and the brush on the mounting base to move up and down. This causes the brush and the needle plate to move in a multi-dimensional relative motion, which can effectively remove stubborn impurities such as yarn fibers, dust, and oil accumulated on the needle plate. This makes up for the shortcomings of simply rinsing with water jets, which is difficult to clean thoroughly, and improves the cleaning effect.

[0014] 2. The threaded rod and adjusting plate can adjust the pressure and contact area between the brush and the needle plate according to the degree of impurity accumulation and the material of the needle plate. The brush is easy to replace through the structure of the clamping block and positioning block, making the cleaning tool suitable for different sizes of needle plates and cleaning scenarios, making it more flexible and convenient to use.

[0020] To enhance understanding of this utility model, the following detailed description will be provided in conjunction with embodiments. These embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0021] according to Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a solution: an adjustable knitting machine needle plate cleaning tool, including a cleaning box 1, a clamping frame 2 is provided inside the cleaning box 1, two connecting rods 3 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the clamping frame 2, the connecting rods 3 on the side away from the clamping frame 2 pass through the inside of the cleaning box 1 and are fixedly installed with a fixing block, an electric telescopic rod 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the clamping frame 2, the power output shaft of the electric telescopic rod 4 passes through the top of the clamping frame 2 and is fixedly installed with a clamping component 5, a rotating rod 6 is rotatably connected inside the cleaning box 1 and located on the left and right sides of the clamping frame 2, a first cam 7 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating rod 6 near the center and fits against the clamping frame 2, a drive motor 8 for driving the adjacent first cam 7 to rotate is fixedly installed on the rear side of the cleaning box 1, and a cleaning component is provided inside the cleaning box 1 and located on the front and rear sides of the clamping frame 2 for cleaning the needle plate.

[0022] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to clean the needle plate of the knitting machine, the needle plate is placed inside the clamping frame 2, and the electric telescopic rod 4 is activated. Its power output shaft drives the clamping component 5 to descend, firmly clamping and fixing the needle plate. Then, the drive motor 8 is turned on, and the drive motor 8 drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate. The first cam 7 on the rotating rod 6 rotates accordingly. Since the first cam 7 is in contact with the clamping frame 2, it will push the clamping frame 2 to move back and forth in the cleaning box 1. At the same time, in conjunction with the action of the cleaning component, the cleaning component moves up and down in the lifting groove on the inner side wall of the cleaning box 1, thereby cleaning the needle plate. Through the relative movement with the needle plate, the accumulated yarn fibers, dust, oil and other impurities on the needle plate are effectively removed.

[0023] The front side of the cleaning box 1 is rotatably connected to a first grooved wheel 9 and a second grooved wheel 10. The surfaces of the first grooved wheel 9 and the second grooved wheel 10 are connected by a belt drive. The rear ends of the first grooved wheel 9 and the second grooved wheel 10 pass through the front side of the cleaning box 1 and are fixedly connected to the front end of the adjacent rotating rod 6. Through the transmission connection of the first grooved wheel 9, the second grooved wheel 10 and the belt, the two rotating rods 6 are driven to rotate, so that the two first cams 7 push the clamping frame 2 to make left and right reciprocating motion inside the cleaning box 1.

[0024] The cleaning assembly includes a mounting base 11. The side wall of the mounting base 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cleaning box 1 via a lifting groove. An adjusting plate 12 is slidably connected to the side of the mounting base 11 near the clamping frame 2. A brush is fixedly installed on the side of the adjusting plate 12 away from the mounting base 11. Support blocks are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the mounting base 11 near the center. A second cam 13 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating rod 6 near the front and rear ends. The top of the second cam 13 is fitted with the bottom of the adjacent support block. When the rotating rod 6 rotates, the second cam 13 fixed on its outer surface near the front and rear ends also rotates. The top of the second cam 13 is fitted with the bottom of the support blocks on the left and right sides of the mounting base 11. As the second cam 13 rotates, it drives the mounting base 11 to move up and down in the lifting groove on the inner wall of the cleaning box 1, so that the brush continuously contacts and separates from the surface of the needle plate. The up and down reciprocating motion of the brush can more effectively remove stubborn impurities on the needle plate, making up for the inadequacy of simple water jet rinsing.

[0025] A threaded rod 14 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting base 11. A threaded hole matching the threaded rod 14 is provided on the side of the mounting base 11 away from the brush. A movable block 15 is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting base 11 away from the clamping frame 2. An movable opening for the movable block 15 to slide up and down is provided on the inner side of the cleaning box 1. An adjusting block 16 that drives the threaded rod 14 to rotate is rotatably connected to the surface of the movable block 15. When the adjusting block 16 is rotated, the adjusting block 16 drives the threaded rod 14 to rotate inside the mounting base 11. Since the threaded hole matching the threaded rod 14 is provided on the side of the mounting base 11 away from the brush, when the threaded rod 14 rotates, it will drive the adjusting plate 12 to slide along the mounting base 11 under the action of the thread, thereby adjusting the distance and pressure between the brush and the needle plate. The contact pressure and area between the brush and the needle plate can be flexibly adjusted according to the degree of impurity accumulation on the needle plate and the material of the needle plate.

[0026] Two clips 17 are fixedly installed on one side of the brush. The mounting base 11 has a slot that matches the clips 17. The brush is installed in the slot on the inside of the mounting base 11 through the clips 17, thus performing the initial installation of the brush.

[0027] A lifting block 18 is slidably connected to the inner side of the locking block 17 near its top and bottom. Two lifting rods 19 are slidably connected to the inner side of the lifting block 18. The top and bottom ends of the lifting rods 19 are fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the locking block 17. A spring 20 is provided on the inner side of the locking block 17 and at the outer edge of the lifting rods 19 to drive the lifting block 18 to slide upward. A positioning block 21 is fixedly installed on the side of the lifting block 18 away from the spring 20. The positioning block 21 extends through the inner side of the locking block 17 and outward on the side away from the lifting block 18. An opening is provided on the inner side of the mounting base 11. The positioning port 22 is compatible with the positioning block 21. When installation is required, press the lifting block 18 to make the lifting block 18 slide downward against the elastic force of the spring 20, which will drive the positioning block 21 to retract into the inner side of the locking block 17. At this time, the locking block 17 can be locked in the slot. The reaction force of the spring 20 will make the positioning block 21 extend again and insert into the positioning port 22 inside the mounting base 11, which will firmly fix the brush and facilitate the replacement of the brush. When the brush wears out after a period of use, it can be replaced quickly and conveniently, ensuring that the cleaning tool always maintains a good cleaning effect.

[0028] The above embodiment discloses an adjustable knitting machine needle plate cleaning tool. When cleaning the knitting machine needle plate is required, the needle plate is placed inside the clamping frame 2. The electric telescopic rod 4 is activated, and its power output shaft drives the clamping member 5 to descend, firmly clamping and fixing the needle plate. Then, the drive motor 8 is turned on, and the drive motor 8 drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate. The first cam 7 on the rotating rod 6 rotates accordingly. Since the first cam 7 is in contact with the clamping frame 2, it pushes the clamping frame 2 to move back and forth in the cleaning box 1. When the rotating rod 6 rotates, the second cam 13, which is fixed on its outer surface near the front and rear ends, also rotates accordingly. The top of the second cam 13 is in contact with the bottom of the support blocks on the left and right sides of the mounting base 11. As the second cam 13 rotates, it drives the mounting base 11 to move up and down in the lifting groove on the inner wall of the cleaning box 1, so that the brush continuously contacts and separates from the surface of the needle plate. The up and down reciprocating motion of the brush can more effectively remove needles. Stubborn impurities on the plate are effectively removed by water jets, overcoming the limitations of simple water jet cleaning. Before cleaning, press the lifting block 18 to allow it to slide downwards against the spring force of the spring 20, causing the positioning block 21 to retract into the inner side of the locking block 17. At this point, the locking block 17 can be engaged in the slot. The reaction force of the spring 20 causes the positioning block 21 to extend again and insert into the positioning port 22 inside the mounting base 11, firmly fixing the brush and facilitating brush replacement. When the brush wears out after a period of use, it can be quickly and easily replaced, ensuring that the cleaning tool always maintains a good cleaning effect. Rotate the adjusting block 16, which drives the threaded rod 14 to rotate inside the mounting base 11. Under the action of the thread, the adjusting plate 12 will slide along the mounting base 11, thereby adjusting the distance and pressure between the brush and the needle plate. The contact pressure and area between the brush and the needle plate can be flexibly adjusted according to the degree of impurity accumulation on the needle plate and the material of the needle plate.
