Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic cleaning machines, specifically relating to an ultrasonic cleaning machine with automatic water intake. Background Technology

[0002] An ultrasonic cleaner is a device that uses high-frequency sound waves to create cavitation in a liquid to clean objects. By propagating ultrasonic waves in the liquid, the liquid and the cleaning tank vibrate together at the ultrasonic frequency. The liquid and the cleaning tank have their own natural frequency when they vibrate, and this vibration frequency is the sound wave frequency, so people hear a buzzing sound.

[0003] The working principle of ultrasonic cleaners is mainly based on the ultrasonic cavitation effect. High-frequency sound waves generate tiny bubbles in the liquid, which then burst and release shock waves to remove dirt from the surface of objects. However, existing ultrasonic cleaners often lack auxiliary material loading and unloading functions, as well as automatic water filling functions, making them inconvenient to use. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an ultrasonic cleaner with automatic water filling.

[0004] The existing patent with publication number CN218282944U discloses an ultrasonic cleaner with automatic water intake. It is equipped with a handle, a sliding cover, a servo motor, a screw, a slider, a connecting column, and a placement basket. In use, the sliding cover is first opened by pulling the handle, and then the servo motor is started. The output shaft of the servo motor drives the screw to rotate, and the slider drives the placement basket connected to the connecting column to slide up and down, so that the placement basket moves outside the ultrasonic cleaner body, making it easy to put in and take out items.

[0005] However, the above solution requires not only opening the sliding cover in advance when picking up or placing items, but also starting the servo motor after opening the sliding cover to move the placement basket outside the ultrasonic cleaner body. The entire solution involves many steps, making it inconvenient to use and difficult to quickly pick up or place items, resulting in only average practical effect. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the problems existing in the background technology, this utility model provides an ultrasonic cleaning machine with automatic water intake.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: An ultrasonic cleaner with automatic water intake includes a base, on the top of which the ultrasonic cleaner body is fixedly mounted. The top of the ultrasonic cleaner body has a rotatable cover plate and a driving mechanism acting on the cover plate. Inside the ultrasonic cleaner body, a rotatable cam is mounted, and a drain basket is slidably mounted in a vertical direction. The driving mechanism engages with the cam via a first transmission component, and the cam engages with the drain basket via a second transmission component. The ultrasonic cleaner body has a fixedly connected pipe assembly and a float assembly. The pipe assembly is connected to an external water supply device and also engages with the float assembly.

[0008] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a motor. The motor is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the ultrasonic cleaner body via a support block. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly provided with a first rotating shaft, which is fixedly connected to the cover plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the first transmission component includes a transmission belt, a second rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the ultrasonic cleaner body, pulleys are fixedly sleeved on the outer surfaces of both the first and second rotating shafts, and the transmission belt is sleeved on the outer surfaces of the two pulleys; one end of the second rotating shaft extends rotatably into the ultrasonic cleaner body, and the end of the second rotating shaft located inside the ultrasonic cleaner body is fixedly connected to a cam.

[0010] Furthermore, the second transmission component includes sliding rods, and two sliding rods are fixedly installed on the drain basket, with the two sliding rods symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drain basket; two sliding grooves are opened in the body of the ultrasonic cleaner, with the two sliding grooves symmetrically arranged on the inner walls of both sides of the ultrasonic cleaner body; the sliding rods are both in a one-to-one limiting sliding cooperation with the sliding grooves and in a one-to-one transmission cooperation with the cams.

[0011] Furthermore, the pipeline assembly includes a branch pipe, which is fixedly connected to the ultrasonic cleaner body. The other end of the branch pipe is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe, and both ends of the connecting pipe are open. The top opening of the connecting pipe is connected to an external water supply device.

[0012] Furthermore, the float assembly includes a limiting rod, which is vertically slidably installed inside the ultrasonic cleaner body; a first float is fixedly installed at one end of the limiting rod inside the ultrasonic cleaner body, and a piston rod is fixedly installed at the other end of the limiting rod outside the ultrasonic cleaner body via a connecting plate; the piston rod is slidably and sealed inside the connecting pipe.

[0013] Furthermore, the pipeline assembly includes a fixed pipe, which is fixedly connected to the ultrasonic cleaner body. The fixed pipe has an opening outside the ultrasonic cleaner body that is connected to an external water supply device.

[0014] Furthermore, the float assembly includes a fixed rod. The fixed rod is fixedly installed inside the ultrasonic cleaner body, and a baffle is slidably installed in the vertical direction. A connecting rod is rotatably sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed rod, and a second float is fixedly installed on the connecting rod. The connecting rod is located below the baffle and the two are in contact transmission cooperation. The baffle transmission seals the pipe opening of the fixed pipe located inside the ultrasonic cleaner body.

[0015] This application has the following beneficial effects: 1. During the process of the drive mechanism rotating to open the cover, the cam will automatically rotate with the assistance of the first transmission component, thereby lifting the drain basket with the help of the second transmission component, so as to facilitate the loading and unloading of items. Similarly, during the process of the cover rotating to close, the drain basket will automatically descend into the body of the ultrasonic cleaner. The whole solution is simple to operate, more convenient to use, facilitates the quick loading and unloading of items, and has better practical effect.

[0016] 2. An external water supply device can inject water into the ultrasonic cleaner body through a pipeline assembly. When the water level inside the ultrasonic cleaner body rises to a certain height, the float assembly automatically seals the pipeline assembly. When the water level inside the ultrasonic cleaner body drops, the float assembly releases the seal on the pipeline assembly, allowing external water to flow back into the ultrasonic cleaner body, thus achieving an automatic water intake function and further improving the practical effect of this application.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments described below are only some, not all, of the embodiments disclosed. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0020] Example 1: As Figures 1-3 As shown, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an ultrasonic cleaner with automatic water intake includes a base 1, an ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, a cover plate 4 is rotatably installed on the top of the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, and a driving mechanism acting on the cover plate 4 is also provided; a cam 5 is rotatably installed inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, and a drain basket 8 is slidably installed in the vertical direction; the driving mechanism is driven and cooperated with the cam 5 through a first transmission component, and the cam 5 is driven and cooperated with the drain basket 8 through a second transmission component.

[0021] Furthermore, several support legs (not labeled in the figure) are fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 1.

[0022] The drive mechanism includes a motor 3. The motor 3 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 by a support block. The output shaft of the motor 3 is fixedly provided with a first rotating shaft 19, and the first rotating shaft 19 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 4.

[0023] The first transmission component includes a transmission belt 6. A second rotating shaft 20 is rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. Both the outer surfaces of the first rotating shaft 19 and the second rotating shaft 20 are fixedly fitted with pulleys (not labeled in the figure). The transmission belt 6 is driven and fitted on the outer surfaces of the two pulleys. One end of the second rotating shaft 20 extends rotatably into the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. The end of the second rotating shaft 20 located inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is fixedly connected to the cam 5.

[0024] Furthermore, the rotating connection between the second rotating shaft 20 and the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is sealed.

[0025] The second transmission component includes sliding rods 7. Two sliding rods 7 are fixedly installed on the drain basket 8, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drain basket 8. Two sliding grooves 14 are opened inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. The sliding rods 7 are both in a one-to-one limiting sliding engagement with the sliding grooves 14 and in a one-to-one transmission engagement with the cams 5.

[0026] In addition, the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is equipped with both a fixedly connected pipe assembly and a float assembly; the pipe assembly is connected to the external water supply device and also drives the float assembly, which can be used to seal the pipe assembly.

[0027] The pipeline assembly includes a branch pipe 9, which is fixedly connected to the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. The other end of the branch pipe 9 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 10. Both ends of the connecting pipe 10 are open, and the top opening of the connecting pipe 10 is connected to an external water supply device.

[0028] The float assembly includes a limiting rod 11, which is vertically slidably installed inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. The sliding connection between the limiting rod 11 and the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is sealed. A first float 13 is fixedly installed at one end of the limiting rod 11 inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, and a piston rod 12 is fixedly installed at the other end of the limiting rod 11 outside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 via a connecting plate 22. The piston rod 12 is sealed and slidably installed inside the connecting pipe 10.

[0029] In addition, the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is equipped with a water outlet pipe (not shown in the figure), and the water outlet pipe has a built-in control valve.

[0030] Working principle of Example 1: In use, the motor 3 is started, and the output shaft of the motor 3 drives the first rotating shaft 19 to rotate, causing the cover plate 4 to rotate and open. At the same time, during the rotation of the first rotating shaft 19, the second rotating shaft 20 also rotates with the assistance of the pulley and the transmission belt 6, thereby driving the cam 5 to rotate. The rotation of the cam 5 will push the sliding rod 7 and the drain basket 8 to rise under the guidance of the slide groove 14, so that the drain basket 8 moves to the outside of the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, so that items can be placed in the drain basket 8.

[0031] Subsequently, the output shaft of the control motor 3 rotates in the reverse direction, causing the drain basket 8 to carry the items into the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. At the same time, the top of the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 is covered and sealed by the cover plate 4 to facilitate ultrasonic cleaning.

[0032] Then, water is injected into the connecting pipe 10 through an external water supply device. Due to the blockage of the piston rod 12, the water in the connecting pipe 10 will flow directly into the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, causing the water level in the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 to gradually rise.

[0033] During this process, the first float 13 rises synchronously with the water level inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, thereby pulling the piston rod 12 up within the branch pipe 9 via the limit rod 11 and connecting plate 22, causing the piston rod 12 to block the branch pipe 9. After the piston rod 12 blocks the branch pipe 9, the water in the connecting pipe 10 stops flowing into the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, thus achieving automatic water intake.

[0034] Subsequently, the items in the drain basket 8 are ultrasonically cleaned. After cleaning, the motor 3 is started, which moves the drain basket 8 outside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 so that the items in the drain basket 8 can be removed.

[0035] During this process, the valve in the water outlet pipe is opened to drain the water that has been cleaned inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, causing the water level inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 to drop, thereby releasing the blockage of the piston rod 12 on the branch pipe 9, so that the next water filling operation can be carried out.

[0036] Example 2: Figure 4 Figure 5 As shown, the difference between this second embodiment and the first embodiment is that: The piping assembly includes a fixed pipe 15, which is fixedly connected to the ultrasonic cleaner body 2. The fixed pipe 15 has an opening outside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 that is connected to an external water supply device.

[0037] The float assembly includes a fixed rod 16. The fixed rod 16 is fixedly installed inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2, and a baffle 18 is slidably installed along the vertical direction. A connecting rod 17 is rotatably sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed rod 16, and a second float 21 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 17. The connecting rod 17 is located below the baffle 18, and the two are in contact transmission cooperation. The baffle 18 drives and seals the opening of the fixed pipe 15 located inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2.

[0038] Furthermore, the baffle 18 is provided with a sealing gasket (not shown in the figure) on one side of the fixed tube 15 to improve the sealing effect after sealing.

[0039] Working principle of Example 2: When in use, the fixed pipe 15 is connected to the external water supply device. Water from the external water supply device flows into the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 through the fixed pipe 15. The water level inside the ultrasonic cleaner body 2 gradually rises, and the second float 21 also rises, thereby driving the connecting rod 17 to rotate upward around the fixed rod 16.

[0040] During the upward rotation of the connecting rod 17, it will contact the baffle 18 and drive the baffle 18 to rise synchronously. The rise of the baffle 18 will block the fixed pipe 15 to enable automatic water intake. When the water level drops, the connecting rod 17 will automatically rotate downward due to gravity, and the baffle 18 will descend, thereby releasing the blockage of the fixed pipe 15.

[0041] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
