Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasonic cleaning equipment clamping technology, specifically a multi-station rotary clamping mechanism for ultrasonic cleaning equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Ultrasonic cleaning equipment generates high-frequency electrical signals through an ultrasonic generator, which are then converted into mechanical vibrations by a transducer, forming ultrasonic waves in the liquid. These ultrasonic waves cause the liquid molecules to vibrate violently, producing cavitation bubbles. The shock waves generated when these bubbles burst can peel away dirt from the surface of objects, while the liquid flow can penetrate deep into crevices for cleaning.
[0003] However, existing ultrasonic cleaning equipment requires operators to fix the objects to be cleaned onto a clamp, then use a moving module to control the clamp and objects to enter a water tank for cleaning. After cleaning, the moving module again removes the clamp and objects from the water tank, removes the cleaned objects from the clamp and collects them, and then fixes the uncleaned objects back onto the clamp. This process of removing and installing objects is time-consuming, resulting in a long idle time for the ultrasonic cleaning equipment and affecting overall work efficiency. Therefore, a multi-station rotating clamp mechanism for ultrasonic cleaning equipment is proposed. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0020] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figs. 1 to 4 As shown in this embodiment, a multi-station rotating clamp mechanism for an ultrasonic cleaning device includes a base 1, a connecting plate 2 fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 1, a column 3 arranged above the base 1, a rotating seat 11 fixedly connected to the bottom of the column 3, the rotating seat 11 being rotatably installed in a rotating groove 12 opened on the upper surface of the base 1, an internal motor acting on the rotating seat 11 being provided inside the base 1, the column 3 having an equilateral triangular cross-section, connecting arms 6 being provided on the three side walls of the column 3 respectively, the connecting arms 6 being movable relative to the column 3 through a lifting mechanism, the connecting arms 6 having an L-shaped structure, an mounting plate 9 being fixedly connected to the end of the connecting arm 6, and a clamping mechanism being provided at the upper end of the mounting plate 9.
[0021] The clamping mechanism consists of a clamping base 10 and multiple clamping components. The clamping base 10 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 9 by multiple locking screws 13. Multiple clamping components are provided on the upper end of the clamping base 10, and the multiple clamping components are distributed in multiple rows at equal intervals.
[0022] The clamping assembly consists of a fixed plate 14, a fixed clamping plate 15, a movable clamping plate 16, a slider 17, a threaded rod 19, and a rotating component 20. The fixed plate 14 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the clamping seat 10. The fixed clamping plate 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the fixed plate 14, and the movable clamping plate 16 is provided on the other side of the upper end of the fixed plate 14. The slider 17 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable clamping plate 16. The slider 17 is slidably installed in a groove 18 opened on the upper surface of the fixed plate 14. The threaded rod 19 is provided in the groove 18. The two ends of the threaded rod 19 are rotatably connected to the two inner walls of the groove 18, respectively. The slider 17 is threaded onto the outer wall of the threaded rod 19. One end of the threaded rod 19 extends to the outside of the fixed plate 14 and is fixedly connected to the rotating component 20.
[0023] In use, the object to be cleaned is placed between the fixed clamping plate 15 and the movable clamping plate 16. The rotating part 20 is manually rotated to drive the slider 17 to slide in the slide groove 18, controlling the movable clamping plate 16 to move towards the fixed clamping plate 15, so that the object to be cleaned is clamped between the fixed clamping plate 15 and the movable clamping plate 16. It should be noted that the clamping method of this application is suitable for small objects and the objects are not easily damaged or deformed. For delicate or large objects, specially designed matching clamps are required.
[0024] The sidewalls of the fixed clamping plate 15 and the movable clamping plate 16 that are close to each other are both sanded.
[0025] This setup increases the friction between the object to be cleaned and the clamping plate.
[0026] The lifting mechanism consists of a lifting block 5, a fixed side plate 7, and a cylinder 8. The fixed side plate 7 is located above the connecting arm 6 and is fixedly connected to the column 3. The cylinder 8 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the fixed side plate 7. The telescopic rod of the cylinder 8 slides through the fixed side plate 7 and is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting arm 6.
[0027] In use, the height of the connecting arm 6 is controlled by controlling the length of the telescopic rod of the cylinder 8.
[0028] Among them, a lifting block 5 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting arm 6 near the column 3, and the lifting block 5 is slidably installed in the lifting groove 4 opened in the side wall of the column 3.
[0029] The lifting block 5 and lifting groove 4 make the connecting arm 6 more stable when moving up and down.
[0030] This utility model provides a multi-station rotary clamping mechanism for an ultrasonic cleaning equipment, the specific working principle of which is as follows:
[0031] The three clamping seats 10 are divided into three workstations. During installation, one workstation is positioned above the water tank of the ultrasonic cleaning equipment. In operation, the worker at one workstation uses multiple clamping components to fix multiple objects onto the clamping seat 10. After installation, the built-in motor inside the base 1 controls the column 3 to rotate 120 degrees, causing the clamping seat 10 to rotate to the next workstation, i.e., above the water tank of the ultrasonic cleaning equipment. Then, the extension rod of the cylinder 8 is extended, causing the connecting arm 6 and the clamping seat 10 to move downwards, allowing the clamping seat 10 and... The object to be cleaned is submerged in the water tank, and the ultrasonic cleaning equipment cleans the object. After cleaning the outer wall, the length of the telescopic rod of the cylinder 8 is shortened, which drives the clamp seat 10 to return to its initial position. Then, the built-in motor controls the column 3 to rotate 120 degrees again, which drives the clamp seat 10 to move to the last station. At this time, the workers at this station can disassemble and collect the object on the clamp seat 10. In this way, while the object is being cleaned at one station, the other two stations can install and disassemble the object separately, thereby effectively improving the overall efficiency of object cleaning.
[0032] The frequency of the built-in motor's rotation and the timing of the extension and retraction of the cylinder 8 telescopic rod are all controlled by the PLC control program. The programmer only needs to program a fixed program to make the device operate in the manner described above.
[0033] The built-in motor can be a large stepper motor to ensure that the rotation angle of the column 3 can be controlled;
[0034] It should also be noted that the clamping method of this application is suitable for small objects and the objects are not easily damaged or deformed. For delicate or large objects, specially designed matching clamps are required.
[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
