Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of art supplies technology, specifically to a brush cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] The brush includes a handle and brush bristles below the handle, and the handle has a rectangular cross-section.

[0003] When in use, the brush bristles pick up paint. When not in use, the brush needs to be cleaned using a cleaning tank to wash away the paint from the brush bristles for the next use. In the current technology, there are no other parts in the cleaning tank to help clean the brush bristles. Therefore, cleaning the brush bristles requires handling them by hand, which will cause hand contamination and is inconvenient to use. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing a brush cleaning device that is easy to use and does not require manual manipulation of the brush bristles.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: a brush cleaning device includes a cleaning tank, the inside of which is a cavity. The cleaning tank has an upper opening and a lower drain hole, with a plug installed at the drain hole. The device is characterized by having left-right sliding grooves on both the front and rear sides of the cavity, and a sliding plate installed within the grooves. The sliding plate has upward-facing brush bristles. A rocker arm is also installed on the right side of the cavity, and is mounted within the cavity via a first rotating shaft. The rocker arm is connected to the sliding plate via a connecting rod. By rocking the rocker arm left and right, the sliding plate can slide left and right within the grooves. A protrusion for positioning the brush is also installed at the opening, with grooves between adjacent protrusions for holding the brush. Furthermore, the right side of the connecting rod is hinged to the bottom of the rocker arm via a second hinge pin; the left end of the connecting rod is hinged to the sliding plate via a third hinge pin.

[0006] Furthermore, when the rocker arm is cranked, the brush that is being cleaned can be moved from the left side to the right side of the brush.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: such a brush cleaning device has the advantages of not needing to manipulate the brush bristles by hand and being easy to use. Attached Figure Description

[0013] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0014] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, a brush cleaning device includes a cleaning tank 1, the inside of which is a cavity 11. The cleaning tank has an upper opening 12 and a lower drain hole 13, with a plug installed at the drain hole. The device is characterized by: left-right oriented sliding grooves 2 on the front and rear sides of the lower cavity, and a sliding plate 3 installed within the sliding grooves. The sliding plate has upward-facing brush bristles 4. A rocker arm 5 is also installed on the right side of the cavity, and is mounted within the cavity via a first rotating shaft 51. The rocker arm is connected to the sliding plate via a connecting rod 6. Shaking the rocker arm left and right allows the sliding plate to slide left and right within the sliding grooves. A protrusion 71 for positioning the brush is also installed at the opening, with a groove 72 between adjacent protrusions to hold the brush.

[0015] The above-described configuration of this utility model allows the brush handle to be placed in the groove, and washing water to be placed inside the groove. By shaking the rocker arm, the brush bristles are touched, which helps to remove the paint from the brush bristles, thus achieving the purpose of this utility model.

[0016] The grooves 72 between the adjacent protrusions hold the brush in place, ensuring that the brush does not move during the cleaning process. Furthermore, the right side of the connecting rod is hinged to the bottom of the rocker arm via the second hinge pin 62; the left end of the connecting rod is hinged to the sliding plate via the third hinge pin 63.

[0017] This design allows for greater flexibility when rocking the rocker arm.

[0018] Furthermore, when the rocker arm is cranked, the brush that is being cleaned can be moved from the left side to the right side of the brush.

[0019] This design also has the advantage of improving the cleaning effect on the brush bristles.

[0020] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
