Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and in particular to a gear bracket and a gear cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Gears, as a common mechanical part, are widely used in the transmission mechanisms of various mechanical equipment to transmit power. When repairing gears, it is necessary to clean the oil stains on the gear surface first.

[0003] In the existing technology, gear cleaning is generally carried out manually, by immersing the gears directly in cleaning solution and having workers wipe the various surfaces of the gears with cleaning tools such as cloths.

[0004] However, using the above method can easily cause the cleaned tooth surface to come into contact with the dirty cleaning solution again, resulting in secondary contamination of the tooth surface. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, this application provides a gear bracket and a gear cleaning machine that can provide support for gears during gear cleaning operations.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] This application provides a gear support, comprising:

[0008] Two columns, which are used to support the gear shaft on the gear;

[0009] The distance adjustment assembly includes two connectors, one end of which is slidably connected to one of the two columns, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the other column. The two connectors are symmetrically arranged and cross each other, and one of the two connectors rotates relative to the other to adjust the distance between the two columns and keep the two columns in their current position.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the column has a slot extending in the vertical direction;

[0011] The adjustable distance assembly also includes a slider, which passes through the slot and is connected to the end of the connector, so that the connector can be slidably connected to the column.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the top of the column is provided with an arc-shaped support portion, the arc surface of which is used to support the gear shaft.

[0013] In another aspect, this application also provides a gear cleaning machine, including a gear cleaning machine body and a gear bracket as described above, the gear bracket being disposed on the gear cleaning machine body.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the gear cleaning machine body includes:

[0015] The outer casing has a receiving cavity inside;

[0016] A support member is disposed within the receiving cavity, and the support member divides the receiving cavity into a first chamber and a second chamber located below the first chamber. The gear bracket is mounted on the support member and located within the first chamber, with a portion of the gear bracket extending outside the first chamber.

[0017] A filter assembly configured to filter cleaning fluid from the gears entering the second chamber.

[0018] In one possible implementation, a sliding assembly is also included, wherein one of the two columns of the gear bracket is slidably connected to the support member via the sliding assembly, and the other is fixedly connected to the support member.

[0019] In one possible implementation, the sliding assembly includes a roller and a groove, the roller being mounted on the bottom of the column;

[0020] The groove is provided on the support member, and the rolling element is located in the groove and rolls along the extension direction of the groove to drive the column to slide relative to the support member.

[0021] In one possible implementation, the receiving cavity has a support portion, the support member is mounted on the support portion, and there is a certain gap between the periphery of the support member and the inner wall of the receiving cavity;

[0022] The filtration assembly includes a filter element located below the support member, and the filter element is used to filter the cleaning fluid.

[0023] In one possible implementation, the filter element is configured as a filter plate having a plurality of through holes for allowing the filtered cleaning fluid to flow into the bottom of the second chamber.

[0024] In one possible implementation, a water spray assembly is also included, comprising a water pump and a nozzle, the water pump being connected to the second chamber and the nozzle respectively to deliver the cleaning fluid filtered in the second chamber to the nozzle.

[0025] This application provides a gear bracket, which includes two columns and an adjustment assembly, wherein the adjustment assembly includes two connectors.

[0026] Before cleaning the gears, the gear shafts inserted into the gears are mounted on two columns. At this time, the gears are located between the two columns. Since the columns themselves have a certain height, the gears can maintain a stable suspended state. The staff only needs to use cleaning tools such as rags to wipe the various surfaces of the gears to complete the gear cleaning operation.

[0027] Meanwhile, two symmetrically arranged connectors are installed between the two columns. One end of the connector is slidably connected to one of the two columns, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other of the two columns. One of the connectors can rotate relative to the other. By changing the included angle between the two connectors, the connectors will pull or push the two columns closer or further apart to adjust the distance between the two columns to accommodate the installation requirements of different types of gears.

[0028] Compared to existing gear cleaning methods, the gear bracket provided in this application can provide support for the gears during gear cleaning operations, preventing the gears from being directly immersed in the cleaning solution and causing secondary contamination of the gear surface.

[0057] Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0058] Gears, as a common mechanical part, are widely used in the transmission mechanisms of various mechanical equipment to transmit power. When repairing gears, it is necessary to clean the oil stains on the gear surface first.

[0059] In the existing technology, gear cleaning is generally carried out manually, by immersing the gears directly in cleaning solution and having workers wipe the various surfaces of the gears with cleaning tools such as cloths.

[0060] However, using the above method can easily cause the cleaned tooth surface to come into contact with the dirty cleaning solution again, resulting in secondary contamination of the tooth surface.

[0061] Based on this, an embodiment of this application provides a gear bracket, which includes two columns and an adjustment assembly, wherein the adjustment assembly includes two connectors.

[0062] Before cleaning the gears, the gear shafts inserted into the gears are mounted on two columns. At this time, the gears are located between the two columns. Since the columns themselves have a certain height, the gears can maintain a stable suspended state. The staff only needs to use cleaning tools such as rags to wipe the various surfaces of the gears to complete the gear cleaning operation.

[0063] Meanwhile, two symmetrically arranged connectors are installed between the two columns. One end of the connector is slidably connected to one of the two columns, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other of the two columns. One of the connectors can rotate relative to the other. By changing the included angle between the two connectors, the connectors will pull or push the two columns closer or further apart to adjust the distance between the two columns to accommodate the installation requirements of different types of gears.

[0064] Compared to existing gear cleaning methods, the gear bracket provided in this application can provide support for the gears during gear cleaning operations, preventing the gears from being directly immersed in the cleaning solution and causing secondary contamination of the gear surface.

[0065] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific examples. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments.

[0066] Reference Figure 1 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a gear bracket includes two columns 100, which are used to support the gear shaft on the gear.

[0067] In practice, the number of columns 100 is set to two. The number of columns 100 can also be adjusted according to the distribution of gears on the gear shaft, and can be set to three or more to provide support for each section on the gear shaft and improve the safety and stability of the gear cleaning process. This will not be elaborated on here.

[0068] The distance adjustment assembly 200 includes two connectors 210. One end of the connector 210 is slidably connected to one of the two columns 100, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other of the two columns 100. The two connectors 210 are symmetrically arranged and cross each other. One of the two connectors 210 rotates relative to the other to adjust the distance between the two columns 100 and keep the two columns 100 in their current position.

[0069] Before cleaning the gear, the gear shaft inserted on the gear is mounted on two columns 100. At this time, the gear is located between the two columns 100. Since the columns 100 themselves have a certain height, the gear can maintain a stable suspended state. The staff only needs to use a rag or other cleaning tools to wipe the various surfaces of the gear to complete the gear cleaning operation.

[0070] Meanwhile, two symmetrically arranged connecting pieces 210 are installed between the two columns 100. One end of the connecting piece 210 is slidably connected to one of the two columns 100, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other of the two columns 100. One of the two connecting pieces 210 can rotate relative to the other. By changing the included angle between the two connecting pieces 210, the connecting pieces 210 will pull or push the two columns 100 closer or further apart to adjust the distance between the two columns 100 to adapt to the installation requirements of different types of gears.

[0071] Compared to existing gear cleaning methods, the gear bracket provided in this application can provide support for the gears during gear cleaning operations, preventing the gears from being directly immersed in the cleaning solution and causing secondary contamination of the gear surface.

[0072] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the column 100 has a slot 110 extending in the vertical direction; the adjusting assembly 200 also includes a slider 220, which passes through the slot 110 and is connected to the end of the connector 210 so that the connector 210 can be slidably connected to the column 100.

[0073] Specifically, the end of the connector 210 is provided with a threaded hole, and the sliding member 220 is configured as a bolt adapted to the threaded hole. The sliding member 220 and the connector 210 are connected by threads.

[0074] When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the two columns 100, one of the two connectors 210 is driven to rotate relative to the other to change the included angle between the two connectors 210. At this time, one end of the connector 210 slides relative to the column 100 along the extension direction of the slot 110. After the connector 210 rotates to the appropriate position, the sliding member 220 is tightened to fix the connector 210 on the column 100, so that the connector 210 is kept in the current position, thereby fixing the current position of the two columns 100.

[0075] Therefore, by setting the slot 110 and the sliding member 220, it is not only convenient to assemble the column 100 and the connector 210, but also to form a reliable connection between the column 100 and the connector 210.

[0076] Reference Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the top of the column 100 is provided with an arc-shaped support portion 120, and the arc surface of the support portion 120 is used to support the gear shaft.

[0077] In practice, the support part 120 provided at the top of the column 100 can expand the bearing area at the top of the column 100, and prevent the gear shaft from slipping off the edge of the top of the column 100 during the gear cleaning process, which could pose a risk of injury to the staff.

[0078] Meanwhile, the arc-shaped surface on the lifting part 120 can not only adapt to gear shafts of different diameters to meet the cleaning needs of different gear models, but also the inward bending of the two sides of the arc-shaped surface makes it difficult for the gear shaft to sway left and right at the top of the column 100 under the action of gravity, further improving the safety and stability of the gear cleaning process.

[0079] Reference Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, this application also provides a gear cleaning machine, including a gear cleaning machine body and a gear bracket, with the gear bracket disposed on the gear cleaning machine body.

[0080] The gear bracket in this application embodiment has the same structure as the gear bracket provided in any of the above embodiments, and can bring the same or similar technical effects. It will not be described in detail here, but can be referred to the description of the above embodiments.

[0081] Reference Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the gear cleaning machine body includes: a housing 300, the housing 300 having a receiving cavity 310.

[0082] In practice, the width of the receiving cavity 310 needs to be slightly larger than the diameter of the gear, and the length of the receiving cavity 310 needs to be slightly larger than the length of the gear shaft, so as to ensure that the cleaning fluid after cleaning the gear can be completely collected in the receiving cavity 310, which is convenient for subsequent filtration and recycling of the cleaning fluid. As for the depth of the receiving cavity 310, it can be designed according to the height of the column 100, which will not be elaborated here.

[0083] A support member 400 is disposed within a receiving cavity 310 and divides the receiving cavity 310 into a first chamber 311 and a second chamber 312 located below the first chamber 311. A gear bracket is mounted on the support member 400 and located within the first chamber 311, with a portion of the gear bracket extending outside the first chamber 311. A filter assembly 500 is configured to filter the cleaning fluid entering the gear in the second chamber 312.

[0084] In practice, the gear bracket is mounted on the support 400 and located inside the first chamber 311, with a portion of the gear bracket extending outside the first chamber 311. After the workers clean the gears inside the first chamber 311, the dirty cleaning fluid flows to the filter assembly 500 located in the second chamber 312. The filter assembly 500 filters the cleaning fluid to facilitate its subsequent recycling and reduce the cost of cleaning the gears.

[0085] Furthermore, refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a sliding component 600 is also included, wherein one of the two columns 100 of the gear bracket is slidably connected to the support member 400 via the sliding component 600, and the other is fixedly connected to the support member 400.

[0086] Specifically, when adjusting the distance between the two columns 100, by changing the included angle between the two connectors 210, the connectors 210 will pull or push the column 100 that is slidably connected to the support 400 toward or away from the column 100 that is fixedly connected to the support 400, so as to adjust the distance between the two columns 100 to adapt to the installation requirements of different types of gears.

[0087] Meanwhile, the design of moving one-sided column 100 allows staff to focus only on the displacement of one-sided column 100, without having to record the displacement of both columns 100, making it easier for staff to control the distance between the two columns 100.

[0088] Furthermore, refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the sliding assembly 600 includes a rolling element 610 and a groove 620. The rolling element 610 is installed at the bottom of the column 100. The groove 620 is disposed on the support member 400. The rolling element 610 is located in the groove 620 and rolls along the extension direction of the groove 620 to drive the column 100 to slide relative to the support member 400.

[0089] In practical implementation, a groove 620 is provided on the support member 400, and a rolling element 610 is installed at the bottom of the column 100. The rolling element 610 is located within the groove 620 and rolls along the extension direction of the groove 620. This not only utilizes the guiding and limiting function of the groove 620 for the rolling element 610 to prevent the column 100 from swaying left and right when sliding on the support member 400, but also transforms the sliding connection between the column 100 and the support member 400 into a rolling connection, allowing the operator to move the column 100 with less force. Of course, the column 100 can also be placed directly on the support member 400 and slide, which will not be elaborated here.

[0090] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the receiving cavity 310 has a support portion 320, the support member 400 is mounted on the support portion 320, and there is a certain gap between the periphery of the support member 400 and the inner wall of the receiving cavity 310; the filter assembly 500 includes a filter element located below the support member 400, and the filter element is used to filter the cleaning fluid.

[0091] In specific implementation, the support member 400 is a support plate, and the receiving cavity 310 has a support part 320. The support part 320 is a boss protruding from the inner wall of the receiving cavity 310. The number of bosses is set to six, and the six bosses are set at the corners of the receiving cavity 310 to support the support member 400. The top of the boss is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove, and part of the support member 400 is embedded in the snap-fit ​​groove to limit the position of the support member 400 and prevent the support member from swaying left and right during the gear cleaning process, which could easily cause the gear shaft and gear to slip off the gear bracket and cause a safety hazard.

[0092] Meanwhile, there is a certain gap between the periphery of the support member 400 and the receiving cavity 310, so as to provide a channel for the cleaning fluid after cleaning the gears to flow to the filter assembly 500 located in the second chamber 312, and to prevent the cleaning fluid from accumulating on the support member 400 and increasing the supporting pressure on the support member 400. Of course, the size of the gap can be adjusted according to the actual amount of cleaning fluid used, and there is no limitation here.

[0093] Furthermore, refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the filter element is configured as a filter plate 510, which has a plurality of through holes 511 for allowing the filtered cleaning liquid to flow into the bottom of the second chamber 312.

[0094] In practical implementation, the through holes 511 on the filter plate 510 are elongated structures, and the extending direction of the through holes 511 is consistent with the length direction of the filter plate 510. Compared with round holes, the elongated through holes have a larger flow cross-sectional area, which improves the recovery efficiency of the cleaning fluid.

[0095] In other embodiments, the through holes 511 on the filter plate 510 can also be square holes or other shapes, and there are no restrictions on this.

[0096] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a water spray assembly 700 is also included, which includes a water pump 710 and a nozzle 720. The water pump 710 is connected to the second chamber 312 and the nozzle 720 respectively to deliver the cleaning fluid filtered in the second chamber 312 to the nozzle 720.

[0097] In practice, a nozzle 720 with a smaller nozzle size and a larger coverage area should be selected to save cleaning fluid while ensuring that the cleaning fluid is evenly sprayed onto the surface of the gear.

[0098] Because the friction generated when a worker wipes the gear with a hand cloth is insufficient to effectively remove oil stains from the gear surface, the above embodiment uses a water pump 710 and a nozzle 720 to spray cleaning fluid onto the gear surface. Combined with the cleaning fluid's own cleaning properties, this improves the cleaning effect of the gear cleaning machine. Simultaneously, the cleaning fluid forms a lubricating layer between the cloth and the gear, reducing wear on the gear surface.

[0099] It should be understood that the various forms of processes shown above can be used to reorder, add, or delete steps. For example, the steps described in the embodiments of this application can be executed in parallel, sequentially, or in different orders, as long as the desired result of the technical solution disclosed in the embodiments of this application can be achieved, and this document does not impose any restrictions.

[0100] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the embodiments of this application. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can be made according to design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the principles of the embodiments of this application should be included within the scope of protection of the embodiments of this application.
