Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of guardrail cleaning equipment. Specifically, this utility model relates to a guardrail cleaning vehicle cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] With urban development and the increase in population and vehicles, road guardrails, while playing a significant role in maintaining traffic order, are prone to rusting due to road pollution and dust, affecting road cleanliness and lowering the city's image. Therefore, regular cleaning is necessary. Currently, most guardrail cleaning vehicles on the market use a design with roller brushes on both sides of the vehicle to clean the guardrails on both sides. However, in actual operation, the vehicle often only uses one side's roller brush, leaving the other side idle. This not only increases structural complexity but also raises the overall vehicle cost.

[0003] Chinese Patent (Publication No.: 111188304A) discloses a novel guardrail and its matching cleaning device. The technical solution includes two hollow tubes, with a vertical tube fixed to the right end of each tube. Multiple vertical rods are detachably inserted into the two hollow tubes of each guardrail set. Each hollow tube contains a baffle that can fix and loosen the vertical rods. A rotating shaft is located above the guardrail, with multiple smooth rods corresponding one-to-one with the vertical rods running vertically through it. A first sleeve is located at the lower end of each smooth rod, and an electromagnet is installed inside each first sleeve. A metal block that can be attracted by the electromagnet is located at the upper end of each vertical rod. A brush roller is fixed to the front and rear sides of the lower end of a lower support fixed below the rotating shaft. The vertical rod passes between two brush rollers. A nozzle is installed above the brush rollers. A U-shaped bracket with an opening facing downwards is fixed above the rotating shaft, and a reciprocating drive device for the smooth rods is fixed on the U-shaped bracket. This novel guardrail and its matching cleaning device have a complex structure and poor cleaning effect. Utility Model Content

[0017] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in order to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, and to facilitate its implementation.

[0018] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a guardrail cleaning vehicle cleaning device includes a drive mechanism 1, which is mounted on the cleaning vehicle. A rotating structure 5 is provided between the drive mechanism 1 and the vehicle body. The drive mechanism 1 is connected to a cleaning mechanism 2. The drive mechanism 1 is located on one side of the cleaning vehicle. When cleaning is needed, the drive mechanism 1 pushes the cleaning mechanism 2 outside the vehicle; when not in use, the drive mechanism 1 pulls the cleaning mechanism 2 back inside the vehicle, and the cleaning mechanism 2 cleans the guardrail. When it is necessary to adjust the cleaning mechanism 2 to the left or right side of the vehicle frame, the rotating structure 5 rotates 180°, thereby moving the drive mechanism 1 and the cleaning mechanism 2 from one side of the vehicle frame to the other side for cleaning.

[0019] The cleaning mechanism 2 includes a first roller brush cleaner 201 and a second roller brush cleaner 202. The drive mechanism 1 is provided with a mounting bracket 3. The first roller brush cleaner 201 is mounted on the mounting bracket 3. The mounting bracket 3 is provided with a flipping structure 21, which is connected to the second roller brush cleaner 202. Mounting bracket 3 provides a mounting position for the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the flipping structure 21. During cleaning, the drive mechanism 1 pushes the mounting bracket 3 and the cleaning mechanism 2 out of the vehicle. Then, the flipping structure 21 flips the second roller brush cleaner 202 to a horizontal position. The drive mechanism 1 continues to push the mounting bracket 3 and the cleaning mechanism 2 until the first roller brush cleaner 201 contacts the guardrail. Then, the second roller brush cleaner 202 is flipped in the opposite direction so that the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 are parallel and located on both sides of the guardrail. Then, the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 are activated. The guardrail is cleaned by spraying water on it and the roller brushes acting on it.

[0020] The flipping structure 21 includes a flipping cylinder 211, and the second roller brush cleaner 202 is fixed on the flipping cylinder 211. The flipping structure 21 is configured as a flipping cylinder 211, which is fixed on the mounting bracket 3. The flipping cylinder 211 is activated to flip the second roller brush cleaner 202, and the drive mechanism 1 moves the second roller brush cleaner 202 to the other side of the guardrail. The first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 work together to clean both sides of the guardrail.

[0021] The drive mechanism 1 includes a drive cylinder 101, which is connected to a folding structure 11. The folding structure 11 is connected to a fixed plate 102, and a mounting bracket 3 is mounted on the fixed plate 102. The drive cylinder 101 is connected to the folding structure 11, and the drive cylinder 101 drives the folding structure 11 to unfold or retract, thereby causing the fixed plate 102, the mounting bracket 3, and the cleaning mechanism 2 to extend or retract. The fixed plate 102 connects the drive mechanism 1 and the mounting bracket 3, providing a mounting base for the mounting bracket 3.

[0022] The folding structure 11 includes cross-arranged connecting rods 111 connected to each other via a pivot. The connecting rods 111 are connected to the pivot of the fixed plate 102. The folding structure 11 is composed of two sets of cross-arranged connecting rods 111. One set of cross-arranged connecting rods 111 is connected at one end to the telescopic rod of the drive cylinder 101 and at the other end to the pivot of the base of the drive cylinder 101. The other set of cross-arranged connecting rods 111 is connected to the pivot of the fixed plate 102. When the drive cylinder 101 moves, it drives the connecting rods 111 to rotate around the pivot, thereby unfolding or retracting the entire folding structure 11, which in turn drives the cleaning mechanism 2 to extend or retract.

[0023] A lifting cylinder 4 is installed on the fixed plate 102, and a sliding plate 401 is connected to the lifting cylinder 4. The sliding plate 401 is movably connected to the fixed plate 102 and is connected to the mounting bracket 3. A sliding groove is provided on the fixed plate 102, and the sliding plate 401 cooperates with the sliding groove. The lifting cylinder 4 is connected to the bottom of the fixed plate 102 and is fixed on the fixed plate 102. The lifting cylinder 4 drives the sliding plate 401 and the mounting bracket 3 to move, thereby adjusting the height of the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202. When the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 are located on both sides of the guardrail, the lifting cylinder 4 can be activated to lower the sliding plate 401 and the mounting bracket 3. The mounting bracket 3 then lowers the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202, so that the lower part of the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 is lower than the bottom of the guardrail, thus achieving a more complete cleaning of the guardrail.

[0024] When cleaning is complete and the cleaning mechanism 2 needs to be retracted, first turn off the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202. Start the lifting cylinder 4 to drive the slide plate 401 and the mounting bracket 3 to rise to the top position. Then start the tilting cylinder 211 to tilt the second roller brush cleaner 202 to the horizontal position. Next, start the drive cylinder 101 to drive the folding structure 11 to retract, bringing the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 to one side of the guardrail. Then start the tilting cylinder 211 to tilt the second roller brush cleaner 202 in the opposite direction to the vertical position, so that the second roller brush cleaner 202 is flush with the first roller brush cleaner 201. Continue to start the drive cylinder 101 to drive the folding structure 11 to retract, and retract the entire guardrail cleaning vehicle cleaning device into the vehicle.

[0025] The rotary structure 5 includes a rotary cylinder 501, and a drive cylinder 101 is mounted on the rotary cylinder 501. When it is necessary to adjust the cleaning mechanism 2 to the left or right side of the frame, the cleaning mechanism 2 is first retracted into position, and then rotated 180° by the rotary cylinder 501, thereby driving the drive mechanism 1, the folding structure 11, and the cleaning mechanism 2 from one side of the frame to the other side of the frame. Then, the guardrail cleaning operation is carried out according to the steps. When the operation is completed, the cleaning mechanism 2 is retracted according to the retraction steps to complete the cleaning work.

[0026] Mounting bracket 3 includes a first mounting plate 301, which is connected to the slide plate 401. A first roller brush cleaner 201 is mounted on the first mounting plate 301. One end of the first mounting plate 301 is connected to a second mounting plate 302. A tilting cylinder 211 is mounted on the second mounting plate 302. The first mounting plate 301 is thicker and heavier than the second mounting plate 302. The connection between the first mounting plate 301 and the slide plate 401 allows it to withstand a greater load. The second mounting plate 302 is used to mount the tilting cylinder 211.

[0027] The role and effect of the embodiments

[0028] If the left or right guardrail of the vehicle needs to be cleaned, first rotate the drive mechanism 1, folding structure 11 and cleaning mechanism 2 as a whole by rotating structure 5 by 180° and adjust them to the corresponding working side.

[0029] The drive cylinder 101 is activated, causing the folding structure 11 to unfold and pushing the fixing plate 102, mounting bracket 3, and cleaning mechanism 2 out of the vehicle. Next, the tilting cylinder 211 is activated, tilting the second roller brush cleaner 202 to a horizontal position to avoid interference with the guardrail. The drive cylinder 101 continues to push the folding structure 11 to unfold, moving the mounting bracket 3 and cleaning mechanism 2 forward until the first roller brush cleaner 201 contacts the guardrail. Then, the tilting cylinder 211 reverses its action, tilting the second roller brush cleaner 202 until it is parallel to the first roller brush cleaner 201, at which point they are located on opposite sides of the guardrail. The lifting cylinder 4 is activated, causing the sliding plate 401 to move downwards along the groove of the fixing plate 102, causing the mounting bracket 3, the first roller brush cleaner 201, and the second roller brush cleaner 202 to descend synchronously, ensuring that their lower parts are below the bottom of the guardrail for complete coverage. Start the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202, and in conjunction with the water spray function, clean both sides of the guardrail through the friction of the rotating roller brushes and the rinsing of the water flow. Drive the vehicle slowly forward to complete the continuous cleaning operation.

[0030] When cleaning is complete and the cleaning mechanism 2 needs to be retracted, first turn off the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202. Start the lifting cylinder 4 to drive the slide plate 401 and the mounting bracket 3 to rise to the top position. Then start the tilting cylinder 211 to tilt the second roller brush cleaner 202 to the horizontal position. Next, start the drive cylinder 101 to drive the folding structure 11 to retract, bringing the first roller brush cleaner 201 and the second roller brush cleaner 202 to one side of the guardrail. Then start the tilting cylinder 211 to tilt the second roller brush cleaner 202 in the opposite direction to the vertical position, so that the second roller brush cleaner 202 is flush with the first roller brush cleaner 201. Continue to start the drive cylinder 101 to drive the folding structure 11 to retract, and retract the entire guardrail cleaning vehicle cleaning device into the vehicle.
