Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of porcelain bottle cleaning technology, and in particular to an automatic cleaning device for open-type porcelain bottles. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, flashover of insulating porcelain insulators in open-type equipment in substations is a serious problem, especially in coastal areas. When the effect of flushing with energized water is not good, the porcelain insulators are more likely to discharge to ground due to flashover, causing equipment tripping, affecting the normal operation of the substation, and posing a huge safety hazard.

[0003] Currently, the main method for cleaning insulating porcelain insulators is manual cleaning during power outages. However, manual cleaning is time-consuming and labor-intensive. For insulators with high voltage levels and numerous, high-altitude work platforms are required, which poses significant risks and increases the workload. Moreover, power outage time is limited, human resources are limited, and the quality of insulator cleaning cannot be guaranteed when the workload is heavy.

[0004] In response to this situation, some companies have made improvements. For example, Chinese invention patent CN114101139A discloses a porcelain insulator cleaning device. In this solution, a lifting platform is used in conjunction with a cleaning ring to clean the insulating porcelain insulator. This solution basically solves the problems caused by relying solely on manual labor to clean porcelain insulators. However, the equipment can only move horizontally and rotate, while the positions of the insulating porcelain insulators are complex and cannot clean some hard-to-reach areas. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model proposes an automatic porcelain bottle cleaning device with strong applicability, high cleaning efficiency and good cleaning effect.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an open-type automatic cleaning device for porcelain bottles, comprising a lifting platform with a drive wheel, a slide table slidably engaged on the lifting platform via a slide rail assembly, a slide table drive device provided at the lower part of the slide table, a rotating disk rotatably engaged at the upper part of the slide table via a gear transmission mechanism, a cleaning component fixedly installed at the upper end of the rotating disk, the gear transmission mechanism comprising a driving wheel and a driven wheel meshing with each other, a drive motor fixedly engaged on the shaft of the driving wheel, and the driven wheel disposed at the lower end of the rotating disk and coaxially engaged.

[0007] Based on the above, the lifting platform equipped with the drive wheels can automatically travel to a designated location and then clean the porcelain bottles using the cleaning components, achieving automated cleaning, improving cleaning efficiency, and reducing the workload of workers. The sliding table, in conjunction with the rotating disc, increases the cleaning range of the cleaning components, enabling the cleaning of porcelain bottles located in hard-to-reach areas, thus improving the applicability of this invention.

[0008] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly includes a support rod, a telescopic linkage mechanism, a cleaning ring, and a water tank. A high-pressure water pump is installed on the side of the water tank. One end of the support rod is fixedly installed on the rotating disk, and the other end is fitted with the cleaning ring. The telescopic linkage mechanism is located at the lower end of the support rod and cooperates with the cleaning ring.

[0009] Based on the above, the telescopic connecting rod is used to control the size of the cleaning ring, enabling this invention to adapt to porcelain bottles of various sizes and improving compatibility. Before cleaning the porcelain bottle, the telescopic connecting rod is pushed forward to increase the diameter of the cleaning ring, allowing it to fit onto the porcelain bottle. Subsequently, the telescopic connecting rod is retracted to decrease the diameter of the cleaning ring, ensuring it fits snugly onto the porcelain bottle. The water storage tank provides water to the cleaning ring, and the high-pressure water pump pressurizes the water flow, enhancing the cleaning force of the cleaning ring on the porcelain bottle.

[0010] Furthermore, a visual sensing device is also provided on the support rod, and a guide rail for adjusting the visual sensing device is provided on the support rod.

[0011] Based on the above, the visual sensing device can collect data on the surface of the porcelain bottle, and the cleaning component can perform targeted cleaning based on the collected information. It can also arrange repairs if damage is detected, reducing safety hazards. The guide rail is used to adjust the position of the visual sensing device, ensuring that its focal length is maintained at the optimal position.

[0012] Furthermore, the slide drive device includes a slide drive motor, a drive clamping plate, and a synchronous pulley set. The synchronous pulley set includes a first synchronous pulley and a second synchronous pulley respectively disposed at both ends of the lifting platform. A synchronous belt is disposed between the first synchronous pulley and the second synchronous pulley. The first synchronous pulley is fixedly engaged with the output shaft of the slide drive motor. The drive clamping plate is clamped and meshed with the transmission teeth on the synchronous belt. The drive clamping plate is fixedly connected to the slide.

[0013] Based on the above, the slide drive motor is started, and the first synchronous pulley, together with the second synchronous pulley, drives the synchronous belt to move, and the slide slides horizontally under the synchronous belt.

[0014] Furthermore, baffles and positioning sensors are provided at both ends of the guide rail.

[0015] Based on the above, when the slide table touches the positioning sensor, the drive motor stops running. The baffle is used to limit the travel of the slide table and prevent it from exceeding its travel range.

[0016] Furthermore, the rotating disk is also provided with an angle limiting device, which includes a sensor disposed on the slide and a sensing plate disposed on the rotating disk.

[0017] Based on the above, the angle limiting device is used to limit the rotation amplitude of the rotating disk and prevent the support rod from exceeding the swing range and colliding with other parts of the device.

[0018] Furthermore, a control cabinet is also installed on the lifting platform.

[0019] Based on the above, the information collected by the visual sensing device will be transmitted to the control cabinet, thereby controlling the cleaning assembly to perform cleaning through the control cabinet.

[0020] Furthermore, a lifting frame is installed inside the lifting platform.

[0021] Based on the above, the lifting frame is used to control the height of the cleaning assembly.

[0022] To more clearly illustrate the above-mentioned features of this utility model and the objectives it aims to achieve, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will further explain this utility model. Attached Figure Description

The driven wheel 9 is located at the lower end of the rotating disk 6 and is coaxially aligned with it. The lifting platform 2, equipped with the drive wheel 1, can automatically travel to a designated location and then clean the porcelain bottle through the cleaning component 7, achieving automated cleaning, improving cleaning efficiency, and reducing the workload of workers. The slide 4, in conjunction with the rotating disk 6, increases the cleaning range of the cleaning component 7, enabling cleaning of porcelain bottles located in hard-to-reach areas, thus improving the applicability of this invention.

[0026] Preferably, the cleaning assembly 7 includes a support rod 11, a telescopic linkage mechanism 12, a cleaning ring 13, and a water tank 14. A high-pressure water pump 15 is provided on the side of the water tank 14.

The telescopic linkage mechanism 12 is located at the lower end of the support rod 11 and cooperates with the cleaning ring 13. The telescopic linkage is used to control the size of the cleaning ring 13, enabling this invention to adapt to porcelain bottles of various sizes and improving compatibility. Before cleaning the porcelain bottle, the telescopic linkage is pushed forward to increase the diameter of the cleaning ring 13, allowing the cleaning ring 13 to fit onto the porcelain bottle. Then, the telescopic linkage is retracted to decrease the diameter of the cleaning ring 13, so that the cleaning ring 13 fits snugly onto the porcelain bottle. The water tank 14 provides water to the cleaning ring 13, and the high-pressure water pump 15 pressurizes the water flow, increasing the cleaning power of the cleaning ring 13 on the porcelain bottle.

[0027] Preferably, a visual sensing device 16 is also provided on the support rod 11, and a guide rail 17 for adjusting the visual sensing device 16 is provided on the support rod 11. The visual sensing device 16 can collect information on the surface of the porcelain bottle, and the cleaning assembly 7 can perform targeted cleaning based on the collected information. It can also arrange repairs if damage is detected, reducing safety hazards.

[0028] Preferably, the slide drive device 5 includes a slide drive motor 18, a drive clamping plate 19, and a synchronous pulley set. The synchronous pulley set includes a first synchronous pulley 20 and a second synchronous pulley 21 respectively disposed at both ends of the lifting platform 2. A synchronous belt 22 is disposed between the first synchronous pulley 20 and the second synchronous pulley 21. The first synchronous pulley 20 is fixedly engaged with the output shaft of the slide drive motor 18. The drive clamping plate 19 is clamped and meshed with the transmission teeth on the synchronous belt 22. The drive clamping plate 19 is fixedly connected to the slide 4. When the slide drive motor 18 is started, the first synchronous pulley 20, in conjunction with the second synchronous pulley 21, drives the synchronous belt 22 to move, and the slide 4 slides horizontally under the influence of the synchronous belt 22.

[0029] Preferably, the guide rail 17 is provided with baffles 23 and position sensors 24 at both ends.

[0031] Preferably, the lifting platform 2 is also equipped with a control cabinet 28. The information collected by the visual sensing device 16 is transmitted to the control cabinet 28, thereby controlling the cleaning assembly 7 to perform cleaning through the control cabinet 28.

[0032] Preferably, the lifting platform 2 is internally provided with a lifting frame 29, and a support frame is provided at the lower end of the lifting platform 2. The lifting frame 29 is used to control the height of the cleaning assembly 7.

The support legs at the lower end of the lifting platform 2 are raised, and the lifting frame 29 is activated. The lifting frame 29 drives the cleaning component 7 to a specified height. Then, the position of the cleaning ring 13 is adjusted by the cooperation of the sliding table 4 and the rotating disk 6. Then, the telescopic linkage mechanism 12 puts the cleaning ring 13 onto the porcelain bottle and clamps it. The high-pressure water pump 15 delivers water from the water storage tank 14 to the cleaning ring 13 to clean the porcelain bottle. At the same time, the visual sensing device 16 detects the condition on the porcelain bottle and feeds the information back to the control cabinet 28.
