Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange processing technology, specifically a flange hole cleaning device for flange processing. Background Technology

[0002] A flange is typically a disc-shaped metal structure with multiple mounting holes. These mounting holes are used to connect components such as pipes, valves, and mechanical equipment. During the machining of flange mounting holes, impurities such as metal shavings and cutting fluid residue are generated. For example, when drilling mounting holes with a drill press, the friction between the drill bit and the flange metal produces metal shavings. Therefore, the flange mounting holes after machining need to be cleaned to remove burrs and other attachments.

[0003] Commonly used cleaning devices mainly use clamps to hold and fix the flange, and then a motor drives a wire brush to rotate and clean inside the flange hole. Although this type of device can improve the cleaning efficiency of flanges by replacing manual labor, it can only clean the flange hole of a single flange at a time, which is not conducive to cleaning the flange holes of multiple flanges at the same time. In addition, after completing the cleaning of one flange hole, the traditional cleaning device needs to adjust the position of the wire brush to clean the flange holes in other positions, and adjusting the position of the wire brush also consumes a lot of cleaning time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flange hole cleaning device for flange processing, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A flange hole cleaning device for flange machining, comprising:

[0007] Processing table;

[0008] A cleaning mechanism is arranged on the surface of a processing table. The cleaning mechanism includes a panel fixedly connected to the processing table. Multiple support tubes are rotatably connected to the panel. A wire brush is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the support tubes. A gear ring that meshes with and drives the multiple support tubes is rotatably connected to the outside of the panel.

[0009] The placement box is slidably connected to the processing table and can hold multiple flanges in a snap-fit ​​configuration.

[0010] A linear slide rail is fixedly connected to the processing table. A slider is slidably connected to the top surface of the linear slide rail. Two L-shaped blocks are fixed to the top surface of the slider and are evenly inserted into the placement box.

[0011] The dust collection component, connected to one end of multiple support tubes, can suck up adhering impurities inside the flange holes through the support tubes.

[0012] Furthermore, the dust collection assembly includes an inverted box fixed to the processing table, the support tube is rotatably connected to the inverted box, the outer side of the support tube is provided with multiple slots, and the outer side of the inverted box is connected to and fixed with a dust collection pipe.

[0013] Furthermore, both ends of the processing table are fixed with support legs, and a connecting block is fixedly connected between the support legs and the linear slide rail.

[0014] Furthermore, the inner side of the placement box is provided with multiple placement slots at equal intervals, and both sides of the bottom surface of the placement box are provided with slots that can be movably inserted into the corresponding L-shaped blocks.

[0015] Furthermore, one end of the placement box is rotatably connected to multiple bushings, and the top surface of the processing table has two sliding grooves for the L-shaped blocks to slide.

[0016] Furthermore, a gear is fixedly fitted to one end of the support tube, and the gear ring meshes with the gear for transmission.

[0017] Furthermore, one end of the processing table is fixed with a bracket, and a motor capable of driving the gear ring to rotate is fixed inside the bracket.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. By opening multiple placement slots inside the placement box, each slot can hold a flange, allowing the placement box to hold multiple flanges. The placement box containing the flanges is then placed on top of the slider. The slider moves along a linear guide rail, allowing the flange holes of multiple flanges to be inserted into the outside of the wire brushes of multiple support tubes. The motor drives the gear ring to rotate, causing multiple support tubes to rotate. This causes multiple wire brushes on the outside of the support tubes to rotate simultaneously, cleaning multiple flange holes on multiple flanges. This eliminates the need for adjusting the position of the wire brushes to clean multiple flange holes on a single flange, as required by traditional cleaning devices, thus improving the efficiency of flange hole cleaning.

[0020] 2. Multiple slots are drilled through the outer side of the support tube. The open end of the support tube is rotatably connected to the C-shaped box. The suction pipe of the external vacuum cleaner is connected to the suction pipe, which in turn is connected to the C-shaped box. This allows the suction pipe to draw airflow from inside the C-shaped box, enabling the slots in the support tube to suck up impurities inside the flange holes. Before cleaning with a wire brush, the slots in the support tube can be used to preliminarily suck up impurities inside the flange holes. Then, the wire brush can be used to clean the flange holes. Finally, the slots in the support tube can be used again to suck up impurities inside the flange holes, which helps to efficiently clean the impurities inside the flange holes. Furthermore, the slots on the outer side of the support tube can rotate while sucking up impurities inside the flange holes, allowing the slots on the support tube to suck up impurities inside the flange holes from all directions, further improving the cleaning effect of the flange holes.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] 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.

[0028] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5In this embodiment of the present invention, a flange hole cleaning device for flange processing includes a processing table 100. A cleaning mechanism 200 is fixed on the top surface of the processing table 100. The cleaning mechanism 200 includes a panel 210 fixedly connected to the processing table 100. Multiple support tubes 220 are rotatably connected to the panel 210 at equal angles in a ring. A wire brush 221 is sleeved and fixed on the outside of the support tubes 220. A gear ring 230 that meshes with and drives the multiple support tubes 220 is rotatably connected to the outside of the panel 210. A placement box 300 is slidably connected to the top surface of the processing table 100. A linear slide rail 400 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the processing table 100. A slider 410 is slidably connected to the top surface of the linear slide rail 400. Two L-shaped blocks 411, both of which are movably inserted into the placement box 300, are fixed on the top surface of the slider 410. A dust collection component 500 is arranged connected to one end of the multiple support tubes 220.

[0029] Specifically, multiple flanges are placed in a placement box 300, and then the linear slide rail 400 moves the slider 410 to move the multiple flanges toward the support tube 220. The number of support tubes 220 is the same as the number of flange holes on each flange, so that the multiple flange holes of multiple flanges can move simultaneously to be fitted onto the outside of the wire brush 221. The motor 111 drives the multiple support tubes 220 to rotate, so that the multiple wire brushes 221 rotate to clean the flange holes, thereby achieving simultaneous cleaning of multiple flange holes of multiple flanges, which helps to improve the efficiency of flange hole cleaning.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, support legs 120 are fixed on both ends of the bottom surface of the processing table 100. A connecting block 121 is fixedly connected between the support legs 120 and the linear slide rail 400, so that the linear slide rail 400 is fixed on the bottom surface of the processing table 100. The linear slide rail 400 and the slider 410 cooperate to achieve linear movement, which is the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, multiple placement slots 310 are equally spaced on the inner side of the placement box 300. The width of the placement slots 310 is the same as the thickness of the flange, so that the flange can be snapped into the placement box 300. The cleaning device in this application can be equipped with multiple placement boxes 300. When one placement box 300 is used for cleaning multiple flanges, the user can pre-fill the remaining placement boxes 300 with flanges for cleaning and use.

[0032] In this embodiment, slots are provided on both sides of the bottom surface of the placement box 300, which are respectively movably inserted into the L-shaped blocks 411 at the corresponding positions. When the placement box 300 is placed on the surface of the processing table 100, the slots are fitted onto the L-shaped blocks 411. The L-shaped blocks 411 can not only position the multiple flanges on the placement box 300, making it convenient for the support tube 220 to be inserted into the flange hole later, but also move the placement box 300 linearly back and forth along the direction of the support tube 220. When moving towards the support tube 220, cleaning is performed, and when leaving the support tube 220, the cleaning is completed.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, one end of the placement box 300 is rotatably connected to a plurality of bushings 320. When the placement box 300 moves toward the support tube 220, the sealed end of the support tube 220 can be inserted into the bushing 320. The bushing 320 rotates with the placement box 300, which helps to support the high-speed rotating support tube 220 and helps to improve the stability of the rotation of the support tube 220.

[0034] In this embodiment, the top surface of the processing table 100 has two sliding grooves 140 for the L-shaped block 411 to slide, so that the L-shaped block 411 can move smoothly with the placement box 300 on the surface of the processing table 100. The end of the support tube 220 away from the panel 210 is sealed.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a gear 223 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the support tube 220. The gear ring 230 meshes with the gear 223 for transmission, so that the motor 111 drives the gear ring 230 to rotate, which in turn drives multiple gears 223 to rotate multiple support tubes 220, so that the support tubes 220 can complete the cleaning work.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a bracket 110 is fixed at one end of the processing table 100, and a motor 111 capable of driving the gear ring 230 to rotate is fixed inside the bracket 110.

[0037] Example 2, based on Example 1, aims to improve the cleaning effect of the flange hole by removing impurities from the inside of the flange hole.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the vacuuming assembly 500 includes an inverted box 510 fixed to the processing table 100, a support tube 220 rotatably connected to the inverted box 510, and a plurality of slots 222 extending through the outer side of the support tube 220 along its length. A baffle 520 is detachably fixed to the open side of the inverted box 510, and a vacuuming pipe 530 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the baffle 520. The vacuuming pipe 530 is connected to the vacuuming pipe 530 of an existing vacuum cleaner.

[0039] In this embodiment, the vacuum cleaner draws airflow from inside the cubit box 510 through the suction pipe 530. The cubit box 510 draws air from inside the flange hole through the slot 222 on the support pipe 220, which helps to draw impurities inside the flange hole into the cubit box 510 through the support pipe 220. After the cubit box 510 has been used for a period of time, the baffle 520 can be opened to clean the impurities remaining inside the cubit box 510.

[0040] In this embodiment, an inverted plate 130 is fixed between the inverted box 510 and the processing table 100, and the inverted plate 130 supports and fixes the inverted box 510 at a suitable position and height.

[0041] 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.

[0042] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
