[0011] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 6 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0012] Embodiment 1 of this utility model Reference Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model discloses an internal cleaning device for quartz tubes, including a device support 1 and a test tube brush 2. A test tube clamping assembly 3 is installed on the device support 1. The test tube clamping assembly 3 includes two elastic retaining rings 31 arranged vertically. A connecting rod 32 is fixed between the elastic retaining rings 31 and the device support 1. A clamping interface 311 is opened on the side of the elastic retaining rings 31 away from the connecting rod 32. The quartz tube is clamped and fixed to the elastic retaining rings 31 through the clamping interface 311. A cleaning agent tank is provided on one side of the device support 1. Before placing the quartz tube into the elastic retaining rings 31, the test tube is first placed into the cleaning agent tank for rinsing. The axis of the elastic retaining rings 31 coincides with the axis of the test tube brush.

[0013] A drive assembly 4 is installed on the equipment bracket 1 to drive the test tube brush 2 to rotate and move up and down. The drive assembly 4 includes a motor 41, the output shaft of which is fixedly connected to the top of the test tube brush 2. A first spring 42 is fixed to the top of the motor 41 and the top of the equipment bracket 1. Two sliders 43 are fixed to one side of the motor 41. A slide rail 44 is provided on the equipment bracket 1. A slide rail seat 45 is provided at both ends of the slide rail 44. The slide rail seat 45 is fixed to the equipment bracket 1, and the slide rail 44 is fixed between the two slide rail seats 45. The slide rail 44 passes through the slider 43, and the slider 43 is slidably connected to the slide rail 44. The slider 43 can slide up and down along the slide rail 44. The cross-section of the slide rail 44 is rectangular.

[0014] A mounting block 5 is fixed on the side wall of the motor 41. A button 51 for starting the motor 41 is installed on the mounting block 5. A toggle lever 52 is provided on the mounting block 5. A mounting hole 53 is opened on the mounting block 5. The toggle lever 52 passes through the mounting hole 53 and can move along the axial direction of the mounting hole 53.

[0015] One end of the actuating lever 52 is fixed with a plug-in block 54. The plug-in block 54 is cylindrical and has external threads on its outer circumferential wall. A limit block 6 is fixed on the equipment bracket 1. The limit block 6 has a limit hole 61, which is a threaded hole. The plug-in block 54 is threadedly connected to the limit hole 61. When the first spring 42 is not under tension or pressure, the axis of the plug-in block 54 is aligned with the axis of the limit hole 61, and the actuating lever 52 is pushed towards the limit hole 61, so that the plug-in block 54 is threadedly connected to the limit hole 61, thereby fixing the actuating lever 52.

[0016] A second spring 7 is fixed on the lower slide rail base 45, and the second spring 7 is sleeved on the slide rail 44. A connecting ring 71 is fixed to the end of the second spring 7 away from the slide rail base 45, and the connecting ring 71 is slidably connected to the slide rail 44. When the lower slider 43 slides to the bottom of the slide rail 44, it contacts the connecting ring 71, and the connecting ring 71 compresses the second spring 7, which can reduce the descent speed of the motor 41, thereby reducing the impact of the test tube brush 2 on the quartz tube. When the motor 41 moves upward, the second spring 7 exerts an upward pushing force on the motor 41, thereby facilitating the upward movement of the motor 41.

[0017] The implementation principle of Embodiment 1 of this utility model is as follows: When cleaning the quartz tube, first take the quartz tube out of the cleaning agent tank, place the quartz tube on the elastic retaining ring 31 and fix it, then press the button 51, hold the lever 52 to move the motor 41 downward, the first spring 42 is stretched, the motor 41 and the test tube brush 2 move downward together, the motor 41 drives the test tube brush 2 to rotate, the test tube brush 2 is inserted into the quartz tube and rotates, thereby cleaning the inside of the quartz tube.

[0018] Embodiment 2 of this application Reference Figure 4 The difference from Embodiment 1 is that a support plate 8 is fixed on the equipment bracket 1. The support plate 8 is located below the quartz tube. An installation groove 81 is opened on the support plate 8. A sponge pad 82 is fixed in the installation groove 81. When installing the test tube, the bottom of the quartz tube is brought into contact with the sponge pad 82.

[0019] When the test tube brush 2 moves downward, the bottom of the test tube brush 2 may push the quartz tube downward when it comes into contact with the bottom of the quartz tube. Since the sponge pad 82 is set under the bottom of the quartz tube, it can buffer the quartz tube and block the quartz tube, preventing the quartz tube from falling downward.

[0020] Embodiment 3 of this application Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The difference from Embodiment 3 is that a groove 9 is provided on the side wall of the equipment bracket 1 near the quartz tube. A movable plate 91 is slidably connected in the groove 9. The connecting rod 32 located below is fixed to the movable plate 91, and the support plate 8 is fixed to the movable plate 91. An elongated hole 92 is provided on the equipment bracket 1, corresponding to the groove 9. Two threaded rods 93 are fixed on the movable plate 91, arranged vertically. The threaded rods 93 pass through the elongated hole 92 and are threadedly connected to a locking nut 94. When the height of the quartz tube is high, the locking nut 94 can be loosened, the movable plate 91 can be moved downwards to an appropriate height, and then the locking nut 94 can be tightened. By adjusting the height of the movable plate 91, the height of the connecting rod 32 and the support plate 8 below can be adjusted to accommodate quartz tubes of the same diameter but different heights.

[0021] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
