Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and in particular to a cleaning device for processing aerospace parts. Background Technology

[0002] In the aerospace industry, complex and precision parts such as discs and shafts are used. Common cleaning methods for these parts include manual cleaning, organic solvent cleaning, steam cleaning, and high-pressure water jet cleaning. However, a significant proportion of these methods result in surfaces that do not meet usage requirements, and parts may exhibit scratches, minor corrosion, adhered metal layers, and dimensional deformation at thin-walled areas and precision-machined dimensions. Furthermore, the cleaning process is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and costly. Therefore, a novel cleaning method is needed that can ensure cleanliness while avoiding deformation and damage to the parts.

[0003] Ultrasonic cleaning is internationally recognized as the most efficient and effective cleaning method currently available, achieving a cleaning efficiency of over 98% and the highest level of cleaning effect. Typically, parts are placed in a basket, which sinks into the cleaning solution, where they undergo ultrasonic cleaning.

[0004] However, the contact points between the parts and the frame, as well as the overlapping areas between the parts, are obstructed, making it impossible to effectively clean the parts thoroughly. Workers still need to rearrange the parts and perform a second ultrasonic cleaning, resulting in poor cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above problems, this utility model provides a cleaning device for the processing of aerospace parts.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A cleaning device for processing aerospace parts is provided, comprising a main body, a cleaning tank on the main body, a storage frame raised and lowered within the cleaning tank, a first drive component on the main body for vertically raising and lowering the storage frame, multiple placement slots for storing parts arranged side by side on the storage frame, a water inlet pipe connected to the side wall of the cleaning tank, a water outlet pipe connected to the bottom wall of the cleaning tank, several ultrasonic generators on both sides of the cleaning tank, two symmetrical positioning slots on the bottom wall of the storage frame penetrating each placement slot, a mounting frame located below the storage frame within the cleaning tank, a rotating roller rotatably mounted on the mounting frame corresponding to each positioning slot, and a second drive component on the mounting frame for rotating the rotating roller.

[0007] Furthermore, the first driving component includes a hydraulic cylinder, which is fixedly mounted on the main body of the equipment, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the storage frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the second driving component includes a motor, which is fixedly mounted on the main body of the equipment, and the output end of the motor is connected to each rotating roller via a synchronous belt.

[0009] Furthermore, an anti-slip layer is fitted onto the outer wall of the roller.

[0010] Furthermore, the storage frame is hollowed out, and ball bearings for contacting the end faces of parts are rolled on the inner walls on both sides of the placement slot inside the storage frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the storage frame includes an outer frame and several detachable partitions disposed within the outer frame, which divide the outer frame into several storage slots. Multiple mounting rods are arranged in parallel on the partition plates of the outer frame. Several support petals are fixedly installed on the partition plates. The support petals are used to fit and contact the support rods. At least two support petals are hinged with connecting petals. Ear plates are fixedly connected to the connecting petals and the support petals on which the connecting petals are located. The connecting petals and support petals are used to clamp the mounting rods. The two ear plates on the connecting petals and support petals are connected by connecting bolts.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When cleaning disc-shaped parts used in aviation, the parts are placed in the various placement slots of the storage frame, and the parts are separated by the partition plates. Then, the storage frame is lowered and submerged in the cleaning tank, so that the rotating rollers on the mounting frame in the cleaning tank enter the positioning slots on the storage frame, supporting the parts in each placement slot.

[0017] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0018] This application discloses a cleaning device for machining aerospace parts, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The device includes a main body 1, which may be made of stainless steel. A cleaning tank 11 is mounted on the main body 1, and a vertically mounted storage frame 2 is installed within the cleaning tank 11 to store parts to be cleaned. The main body 1 has a first driving component 21 for vertically raising and lowering the storage frame 2. In this embodiment, the first driving component 21 can be a hydraulic cylinder, which is bolted to the main body 1, and its output end is fixedly connected to the storage frame 2. Multiple storage slots 22 for storing parts are arranged side-by-side on the storage frame 2. An inlet pipe 12 and an outlet pipe 13 are connected to the side wall of the main body 1. The inlet pipe 12 is connected to the side wall of the cleaning tank 11, and the outlet pipe 13 is connected to the bottom wall of the cleaning tank 11. The inlet pipe 12 is connected to a water source, and valves are connected to both the inlet pipe 12 and the outlet pipe 13 to control the opening and closing of their respective pipes. Several ultrasonic generator heads 14 are also provided on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 11.

[0019] In this embodiment, two symmetrical positioning grooves 23 are provided on the bottom wall of the storage frame 2. The positioning grooves 23 penetrate each placement groove 22 along the arrangement direction of the placement grooves 22. A mounting frame 3 is provided below the storage frame 2 in the cleaning tank 11. A rotating roller 31 corresponding to each positioning groove 23 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 3. A second driving member is provided on the mounting frame 3 to drive the rotating roller 31 to rotate. By driving the storage frame 2 to rise and fall, the rotating roller 31 can enter and exit the placement groove 22. When cleaning disc and shaft-type aerospace parts, the parts are placed in the storage frame 2 corresponding to each placement groove 22, and the storage frame 2 is submerged in the cleaning tank 11. The rotating roller 31 supports the parts in the placement groove 22. By driving the rotating roller 31 to rotate, multiple parts in the storage frame 2 are rotated simultaneously, realizing comprehensive ultrasonic cleaning of the parts.

[0020] Specifically, the second driving component can be a motor 32, which is fixed to the top of the main body 1 of the equipment. A driven synchronous pulley is coaxially connected to one end of at least one rotating roller 31. An active synchronous pulley is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the motor 32. A synchronous belt 33 is wound around the outer sides of the active and driven synchronous pulleys, thereby enabling the motor 32 to drive at least one rotating roller 31 to rotate, causing the roller 31 to drive the part to rotate through friction. To increase the friction between the rotating roller 31 and the surface of the part, in this embodiment, an anti-slip layer is also sleeved on the outer side of the rotating roller 31. Specifically, the anti-slip layer can be a rubber sleeve. Further, to reduce the friction between the part and the inner wall of the placement groove 22 during rotation, in this embodiment, ball bearings 24 are rolled on the inner walls of both sides of the placement groove 22 within the storage frame 2 for contacting the end face of the part. The ball bearings 24 roll and contact the part, allowing the rotating roller 31 to smoothly drive the part to rotate.

[0021] In this embodiment, the storage frame 2 is hollowed out, which facilitates the entry of liquid from the cleaning tank 11 into the storage frame 2 to contact the parts, and also facilitates the smooth transmission of ultrasonic waves to the surface of the parts when the ultrasonic generator head 14 is working. To allow the placement slots 22 in the storage frame 2 to flexibly adapt to parts of different thicknesses, in this embodiment, the storage frame 2 consists of an outer frame 201 and several partition plates 202 detachably installed inside the outer frame 201. The outer frame 201 consists of end plates on both sides and several mounting rods 203 parallelly and fixedly connected between the two end plates. The mounting rods are parallel to the arrangement direction of the partition plates 202. The placement slots 22 for accommodating parts are located between the partition plates 202 and between the partition plates 202 and the end plates. The partition plates 202 are also hollowed out, with ball bearings 24 located on the side of the end plate facing the partition plate 202 and on both sides of the partition plate 202.

[0022] Several support petals 204 are fixed on the partition plate 202, and the support petals 204 are used to fit against the support rods. Connecting petals 205 are hinged to at least two support plates. The connecting petals 205 and the support petals 204 can respectively hug the two sides of the mounting rod 203. The connecting petals 205 and the support petals 204 on which the connecting petals 205 are located are connected and fixed by connecting bolts 206, thereby allowing the position of the partition plate 202 in the outer frame 201 to accommodate parts of different thicknesses. Specifically, there are four support petals 204, which are used to correspondingly fit against the four mounting rods 203 on the outer frame 201. There are two connecting petals 205, symmetrically hinged to the support petals 204 on both sides of the partition plate 202. Ear plates are fixedly connected to both the connecting petals 205 and the support petals 204 on which the connecting petals 205 are located. Through holes are opened on the ear plates, and the connecting bolts 206 pass through the through holes on the ear plates of the connecting petals 205 and the support petals 204 and are threadedly connected to the nuts.
