[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a cleaning device for chemical paint buckets, comprising a cleaning chamber 1, an installation pipe 3 installed at one end inside the cleaning chamber 1, and four sets of first electric cylinders 2 evenly installed on the outer side of the installation pipe 3. The first electric cylinders 2 can be model J64RT2UNIVER. A water pump 6 is installed at the top of the cleaning chamber 1 near the installation pipe 3. The water pump 6 can be model ISGD. A second sliding assembly 28 is installed at the top of the cleaning chamber 1 away from the installation pipe 3. A water pump pipe 5 is installed at the input end of the water pump 6, and a water guide hose 7 extending into the cleaning chamber 1 is installed at the output end of the water pump 6. A second electric cylinder 11 is installed at the top of the cleaning chamber 1 away from the installation pipe 3. The second electric cylinder 11 can be model J64RT2UNIVER. A control panel 17 is installed at the bottom of the cleaning chamber 1 near the second electric cylinder 11. A sliding plate 10 is slidably installed at the bottom of the second sliding assembly 28, and a support plate 15 is installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 10. The output end of cylinder 11 passes through the cleaning chamber 1, and the output end of the second electric cylinder 11 is connected to the sliding plate 10. The second electric cylinder 11 pushes the sliding plate 10 to slide, which can drive the two sets of brushes 19 to move. The two sets of brushes 19 can be inserted into the paint bucket or moved to the outside of the paint bucket. A motor 14 is installed on the top of the support plate 15. The motor 14 can be a Y90S-2 model. A rotating shaft 13 is installed on the output end of the motor 14. A U-shaped plate 1 is installed on the end of the rotating shaft 13 away from the motor 14. 2. Two sets of first sliding components 24 are installed at the end of the U-shaped plate 12 away from the rotating shaft 13, and sliders 25 are slidably installed at the end of the first sliding components 24 away from the rotating shaft 13. The output end of the control panel 17 is electrically connected to the input end of the first electric cylinder 2, the water pump 6, the second electric cylinder 11 and the motor 14 respectively through wires. A door 18 is installed on one side of the cleaning chamber 1. Drain pipes 16 are installed at the bottom of both ends of the cleaning chamber 1. Wastewater generated during cleaning can be discharged from the inside of the cleaning chamber 1 through the drain pipes 16.

[0025] like Figure 1-4As shown, the output ends of the first electric cylinder 2 all pass through the mounting tube 3, and the output ends of the first electric cylinder 2 are all equipped with clamping plates 4. The operator can insert one end of the chemical paint bucket into the mounting tube 3, and then start the four sets of first electric cylinders 2 through the control panel 17, so that the first electric cylinder 2 pushes the clamping plates 4 to move and makes the clamping plates 4 fit tightly against the outside of the paint bucket, so that the paint bucket can be firmly clamped by the four sets of clamping plates 4.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a connecting rod 9 is installed at the end of the sliding plate 10 away from the second electric cylinder 11, and a ring 8 is installed at the end of the connecting rod 9 away from the sliding plate 10. An annular water pipe 26 is installed at the end of the ring 8 away from the connecting rod 9. The annular water pipe 26 is connected to the water guide hose 7, and nozzles 27 are evenly installed on the outside of the annular water pipe 26. The water pump 6 draws clean water into the annular water pipe 26, and the clean water is evenly sprayed onto the brush bristles 20 and the paint bucket through the nozzles 27, so as to rinse the paint bucket.

[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a bearing 21 is installed at the top inside the U-shaped plate 12, and a threaded rod 23 is installed inside the bearing 21. Two sets of threaded tubes 22 are threaded on the outer side of the threaded rod 23. The threaded tubes 22 are connected to the slider 25, and a brush plate 19 is installed at the end of the threaded tube 22 away from the rotating shaft 13. Brush bristles 20 are evenly installed on the outer side of the brush plate 19. The outer side of the threaded rod 23 is symmetrically provided with threads in opposite directions. In use, by rotating the threaded rod 23 clockwise or counterclockwise, the two sets of threaded tubes 22 can move simultaneously to both ends of the threaded rod 23 or simultaneously to the middle position of the threaded rod 23 through the threads. The spacing between the two sets of brush plates 19 can be adjusted so that the brush bristles 20 can fit tightly against the inner or outer wall of the paint bucket, thus cleaning plastic buckets of different sizes.

[0028] Working principle:

[0029] When in use, connect the device to the power supply and connect the water pipe 5 to the external water source. The staff can insert one end of the chemical paint bucket into the installation pipe 3, and then start the four sets of first electric cylinders 2 through the control panel 17, so that the first electric cylinders 2 push the clamping plate 4 to move and make the clamping plate 4 fit tightly against the outside of the paint bucket. The paint bucket can be firmly clamped by the four sets of clamping plates 4.

[0030] During rinsing, close the chamber door 18. The staff can first start the water pump 6 through the control panel 17 so that the water pump 6 draws clean water into the annular water pipe 26. The clean water is evenly sprayed onto the brush bristles 20 and the paint bucket through the nozzle 27 to rinse the paint bucket. The wastewater generated during rinsing can be discharged from the inside of the cleaning chamber 1 through the drain pipe 16.

[0031] During washing, open the compartment door 18. The operator can start the second electric cylinder 11 through the control panel 17, so that the second electric cylinder 11 pushes the sliding plate 10 to slide, which can drive the two sets of brush plates 19 to move. The two sets of brush plates 19 can be inserted into the paint bucket or moved to the outside of the paint bucket.

[0032] Then the staff can rotate the threaded rod 23 clockwise or counterclockwise. The two sets of threaded tubes 22 on the outside of the threaded rod 23 are limited by the slider 25, so that the threaded tubes 22 cannot rotate with the threaded rod 23. This means that the two sets of threaded tubes 22 can only move simultaneously to both ends of the threaded rod 23 or simultaneously to the middle position of the threaded rod 23 through the thread.

[0033] At this time, the threaded tube 22 drives the slider 25 to slide along a straight line on the first sliding assembly 24, and the threaded tube 22 drives the brush plate 19 to move together, so that the bristles 20 on the outer side of the two sets of brush plates 19 can be in contact with the inner wall of the paint bucket, or the bristles 20 on the inner side of the two sets of brush plates 19 can be in contact with the outer side of the paint bucket.

[0034] After adjustment, the staff can close the compartment door 18 and then start the motor 14 through the control panel 17. The motor 14 drives the U-shaped plate 12 to rotate through the rotating shaft 13, which in turn drives the brush plate 19 and brush bristles 20 to rotate. The brush bristles 20 can be used to scrub the inner or outer wall of the paint bucket.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
