Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, specifically to a tracked vehicle roof cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] EMU, short for high-speed rail vehicles, refers to vehicles equipped with power units in rail transit systems. It includes two main categories: locomotives and power carriages. They are railway vehicles equipped with wheel-drive machinery. The EMUs and high-speed trains operating in my country are mainly pure white, with streamlined structures and high speeds. This makes it very easy for the outer surface of EMUs and high-speed trains to get dirty. Therefore, special equipment is needed to clean their roofs.
[0003] The prior art discloses an adjustable tracked high-speed train roof cleaning machine with publication number CN204279376U, including a walking device, a sweeping device, a water spraying device, and a drying device. The sweeping device is located directly in front of the walking device, the water spraying device is located in the middle of the walking device, and the drying device is located directly behind the walking device. This utility model adopts an adjustable tracked walking mechanism, which is not only easy to assemble and disassemble, but also adapts well to the movement at the connection points of various carriages of high-speed trains, showing strong adaptability. By adding lateral walking bases that can move on the arc sections on both sides of the high-speed train roof, it not only provides support but also improves the stability of the movement of this utility model. It integrates adjustable tracked walking, rotary sweeping, pressurized multi-nozzle water spraying and wiping with a roof-shaped design, resulting in good and comprehensive cleaning effect.
[0004] The aforementioned utility model uses a separate rotary motor to drive the cleaning mechanism to achieve the purpose of cleaning the roof of the train. However, the separate rotary motor not only increases the weight of the device and the power consumption during its movement, but also further increases the power consumption rate of the device, thereby reducing its battery life.

[0008] To achieve the aforementioned advantage of using the power provided by the drive motor to drive the transmission shaft and synchronously drive the cleaning mechanism to rotate and clean the roof of the EMU, eliminating the need for a separate rotary motor and reducing the weight and power consumption of the device, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A tracked EMU roof cleaning machine includes a body, on which tracked walking mechanisms are symmetrically installed on both sides. A motor base is fixedly installed on one side of the top surface of the body, and a drive motor is mounted on the motor base. The output end of the drive motor is connected to a transmission shaft, which is driven and connected to the tracked walking mechanism. The front end of the body is fixedly welded... An extension plate is attached, and a bearing bracket is fixedly installed on the top surface of the extension plate. A first rotating shaft is installed on the bearing bracket. A first transmission wheel is symmetrically fixedly installed on the transmission shaft, and a second transmission wheel is symmetrically fixedly installed on the first rotating shaft. A transmission belt is sleeved between the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel. Extension bearing brackets are symmetrically welded on both sides of the extension plate. A second rotating shaft is installed between the two extension bearing brackets, and a cleaning roller is fixedly installed on the second rotating shaft. A first gear is symmetrically fixedly installed at both ends of the first rotating shaft, and a second gear is symmetrically fixedly installed at both ends of the second rotating shaft. The first gear and the second gear mesh with each other.
[0009] Furthermore, a fixing frame is fixedly welded to the bottom surface of the extension plate, and a liquid leveling plate is fixedly installed on the fixing frame. Several nozzles are evenly installed on the bottom surface of the liquid leveling plate. A water storage tank is fixedly installed on the top surface of the machine body. One end of a water supply pipe is connected to the inner cavity of the water storage tank, and the other end of the water supply pipe passes through the extension plate and connects to the inner cavity of the liquid leveling plate. A water pump is installed on the water supply pipe.
[0010] Furthermore, a lateral walking mechanism is fixedly installed on the side wall of the tracked walking mechanism.
[0011] Furthermore, a drying mechanism is fixedly installed at the tail end of the machine body.
[0012] Furthermore, the machine body is electrically connected to the drive motor and the water pump.
[0013] Furthermore, a water supply pipe is connected to the top surface of the water storage tank.
[0014] Furthermore, the liquid distribution plate and the cleaning roller are of equal length, and the length of the liquid distribution plate and the cleaning roller is greater than the width of the train roof.
[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a tracked EMU roof cleaning machine, which has the following advantages:
[0017] (1) This utility model is equipped with a drive shaft, a first rotating shaft, a second rotating shaft, and a cleaning roller. When in use, the user places the machine body on the roof of the train, so that the tracked walking mechanism installed symmetrically on both sides of the machine body contacts the roof of the train, and the lateral walking mechanism installed symmetrically on both sides of the tracked walking mechanism abuts against the arcs on both sides of the train. Then, the drive motor installed on the motor base is started to drive the drive shaft to rotate. The drive shaft is connected to the tracked walking mechanism, which drives the tracked walking mechanism to move the machine body forward along the roof of the train. On the other hand, an extension plate is fixedly welded to the front end of the machine body, and a bearing bracket is fixedly installed on the top surface of the extension plate. The first rotating shaft is installed on the bearing bracket. The second drive wheel is symmetrically installed on the first rotating shaft, and the first drive wheel is symmetrically installed on the drive shaft. The first drive wheel and the second drive wheel are connected. A drive belt is connected between the two sides of the extension plate, so the drive shaft can drive the first rotating shaft to rotate. Since the extension plate has symmetrically installed extension bearing brackets on both sides, and the second rotating shaft is installed on the extension bearing brackets, and the cleaning roller is fixedly installed on the second rotating shaft, the first gear fixedly installed on both ends of the first rotating shaft and the second gear fixedly installed on both ends of the second rotating shaft mesh with each other. Therefore, the first rotating shaft can drive the second rotating shaft to rotate in the opposite direction. The second rotating shaft can then drive the cleaning roller to rotate, thereby cleaning the roof of the EMU. This realizes that the power provided by the drive motor to drive the drive shaft can be used to synchronously drive the cleaning mechanism to rotate and clean the roof of the EMU. There is no need to add a separate rotary motor for driving, which reduces the weight and power consumption of the tracked EMU roof cleaning machine and improves its endurance.
[0018] (2) This utility model is equipped with a liquid distribution plate, nozzles, a cleaning roller, and a drying mechanism. As described above, when the machine body moves forward, it can synchronously drive the cleaning roller to rotate and clean the roof of the train. At the same time, the water pump installed on the water supply pipe starts synchronously. The water pump can pump the cleaning water in the water storage tank into the inner cavity of the liquid distribution plate installed on the bottom surface of the extension plate through the water supply pipe, and finally spray it onto the roof of the train through several nozzles installed on the bottom surface of the liquid distribution plate. Since the nozzles of this utility model are located at the front end of the machine body in the direction of travel, they can be used first. High-pressure cleaning water sprayed from nozzles washes away dust and impurities adhering to the roof of the train. A rotating sweeping roller then thoroughly removes all the dust. This method is more effective than dry brushing followed by nozzle spraying. Finally, a drying mechanism fixed to the rear of the machine wipes away any remaining cleaning water, completing the cleaning process. The uniform liquid plate and sweeping roller are longer than the width of the train, ensuring effective, comprehensive, and thorough cleaning of the roof for superior results.

[0029] In one embodiment, a fixing frame 24 is fixedly welded to the bottom surface of the extension plate 13, and a liquid leveling plate 15 is fixedly installed on the fixing frame 24. A plurality of nozzles 25 are evenly installed on the bottom surface of the liquid leveling plate 15. A water storage tank 10 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the body 1. One end of a water supply pipe 14 is connected to the inner cavity of the water storage tank 10, and the other end of the water supply pipe 14 passes through the extension plate 13 and is connected to the inner cavity of the liquid leveling plate 15. A water pump 17 is installed on the water supply pipe 14, which can first use the high-pressure cleaning water sprayed from the nozzles 25 to wash away the dust and impurities adhering to the roof of the train.
[0030] In one embodiment, a lateral walking mechanism 11 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the track walking mechanism 9, which serves to make the lateral walking mechanism 11 abut against the arcs on both sides of the vehicle to prevent the device from deviating when moving.

[0033] In one embodiment, a water supply pipe 2 is connected to the top surface of the water storage tank 10, which serves to replenish the water storage tank 10 with cleaning water.
[0034] In one embodiment, the liquid distribution plate 15 and the cleaning roller 12 are of equal length, and the length of the liquid distribution plate 15 and the cleaning roller 12 is greater than the width of the train roof, which ensures that the liquid distribution plate 15 and the cleaning roller 12 can thoroughly clean the train roof.
[0035] Working principle: This utility model is equipped with a drive shaft 7, a first rotating shaft 16, a second rotating shaft 21, and a cleaning roller 12. In use, the user places the machine body 1 on the roof of a train car, so that the symmetrically mounted track walking mechanisms 9 on both sides of the machine body 1 contact the roof of the train car, and the symmetrically mounted lateral walking mechanisms 11 on both sides of the track walking mechanisms 9 abut against the arcs on both sides of the train car. Then, the drive motor 6 mounted on the motor base 4 is started to drive the drive shaft 7 to rotate. The drive shaft 7 connects with the track walking mechanisms 9, thus driving the track walking mechanisms 9 to move the machine body 1 forward along the roof of the train car. On the other hand, an extension plate 13 is fixedly welded to the front end of the machine body 1, and a bearing bracket 19 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the extension plate 13. A first... The first rotating shaft 16 has a second transmission wheel 18 symmetrically mounted on it, and the first transmission wheel 8 is symmetrically mounted on the transmission shaft 7. A transmission belt 3 is connected between the first transmission wheel 8 and the second transmission wheel 18. Therefore, the transmission shaft 7 can drive the first rotating shaft 16 to rotate. Furthermore, the extension plate 13 has extension bearing brackets 20 symmetrically mounted on both sides, and a second rotating shaft 21 is mounted on the extension bearing brackets 20. A cleaning roller 12 is fixedly mounted on the second rotating shaft 21. Simultaneously, the first gear 22 symmetrically fixed at both ends of the first rotating shaft 16 meshes with the second gear 23 symmetrically fixed at both ends of the second rotating shaft 21. Therefore, the first rotating shaft 16 can drive the second rotating shaft 21 to rotate in the opposite direction. Thus, the second rotating shaft 21 can drive the cleaning roller 12 to rotate, thereby cleaning the cleaning roller. The cleaning operation on the roof of the train is achieved by using the power provided by the drive motor 6 and the transmission shaft 7 to synchronously drive the cleaning mechanism to rotate and clean the roof of the train. This eliminates the need for a separate rotary motor, reducing the weight and power consumption of the tracked train roof cleaning machine and improving its endurance. Furthermore, this invention includes a liquid distribution plate 15, nozzles 25, a cleaning roller 12, and a drying mechanism 5. As described above, when the machine body 1 moves forward, it synchronously drives the cleaning roller 12 to rotate and clean the roof of the train. Simultaneously, the water pump 17 installed on the water supply pipe 14 starts synchronously, pumping the cleaning water from the water storage tank 10 through the water supply pipe 14 into the extended... The liquid is dispensed into the cavity of the uniform liquid plate 15 on the bottom surface of the plate 13, and finally sprayed onto the roof of the train through several nozzles 25 installed on the bottom surface of the uniform liquid plate 15. Since the nozzles 25 of this invention are located at the foremost point of the machine body 1 in the direction of travel, the high-pressure cleaning water sprayed from the nozzles 25 can first be used to wash away the dust and impurities adhering to the roof of the train. Then, the rotating cleaning roller 12 can thoroughly brush away all the dust on the roof. Compared with dry brushing by the cleaning mechanism first and then spraying with the nozzles 25, the cleaning effect is better. Finally, the remaining cleaning water on the roof is wiped clean by the drying mechanism 5 fixedly installed at the rear end of the machine body 1, thus completing the cleaning of the roof of the train. The length of the uniform liquid plate 15 and the cleaning roller 12 is greater than the width of the train.It can effectively, comprehensively, and thoroughly clean the roof of high-speed trains, resulting in better cleaning effects.
