[0002] In automobile production, the cleaning and pretreatment of automotive sheet metal surfaces directly impacts coating quality. A common cleaning method is alkaline degreasing, which removes grease and dirt from metal surfaces.

Therefore, accurately simulating and evaluating the performance of different coating products during the degreasing process is crucial for optimizing the coating process.

[0003] However, existing alkaline degreasing equipment is mostly production line equipment, which cannot accurately simulate the experimental environment, leading to discrepancies between test results and actual production processes. Furthermore, existing equipment lacks precise simulation and standardized evaluation of degreasing effects for different coating materials. Existing technologies suffer from problems such as unstable degreasing effects, poor coating adaptability, imprecise control of the experimental environment, and a lack of standards for evaluating degreasing effects.

[0023] The experimental apparatus described in this application is used for offline simulation of alkaline washing and degreasing operations on automotive panels. The apparatus includes a main body, a pretreatment component, a first connecting component, a second connecting component, a temperature sensor, a pH sensor, and a processor.

[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is intended to aid in understanding the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation thereof. The specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are only for describing exemplary embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention may be embodied in many alternative forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the experimental device provided in the embodiments of this application; an experimental device for offline simulation of alkaline washing and degreasing of automotive panels, which can effectively simulate the degreasing process in actual production and monitor and optimize the degreasing effect in real time. The experimental device includes a main body 100, a pretreatment component 200, a first connecting component 301, a second connecting component 302, a temperature sensor 402, a pH sensor 403, and a processor, wherein:

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the main body 100 has a first space 101 inside for accommodating the car panel 500. The arrangement of the first space 101 takes into full account the size and shape of the car panel 500 to ensure that it can be stably placed therein.

[0034] The pretreatment unit 200 has a second space 201 for containing the treatment liquid. The capacity and shape of the second space 201 are optimized according to actual needs to ensure that the treatment liquid can be evenly distributed and circulated efficiently.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, a first connecting member 301 is disposed between the first space 101 and the second space 201. A power member 304 is provided on the first connecting member 301. The power member 304 is used to drive the treatment liquid in the second space 201 to enter the first space 101 through the first connecting member 301.

[0036] A first connecting member 301 is disposed between the first space 101 and the second space 201 to ensure that the treatment fluid can flow smoothly from the second space 201 to the first space 101. A power component 304 is provided on the first connecting member 301. This power component 304 can be a pump or other driving device, used to drive the treatment fluid in the second space 201 through the first connecting member 301 into the first space 101. The motion principle of the power component 304 is based on fluid mechanics; by precisely controlling its rotational speed and flow rate, uniform distribution and efficient circulation of the treatment fluid can be achieved.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the second connecting member 302 is disposed between the first space 101 and the second space 201 to guide the processing liquid in the first space 101 into the second space 201.

[0038] The second connecting member 302 is disposed between the first space 101 and the second space 201. The function of the second connecting member 302 is to guide the treatment liquid in the first space 101 back into the second space 201, forming a closed circulation system. This circulation mechanism not only improves the utilization rate of the treatment liquid, but also ensures that it is always in the optimal degreasing state by continuously refreshing the treatment liquid.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, temperature sensor 402 and pH sensor 403 are respectively disposed within the second space 201. The processor is connected to both temperature sensor 402 and pH sensor 403, and is used to receive and process the signals output by both sensors. Temperature sensor 402 and pH sensor 403 are used to monitor the temperature and pH of the treatment solution in real time. These two parameters are key factors affecting the degreasing effect; accurate monitoring ensures the stability and consistency of the degreasing process. The processor is connected to both temperature sensor 402 and pH sensor 403, and is used to receive and process the signals output by both sensors. Based on these signals, the processor can dynamically adjust the movement state of the power component 304, and can also simultaneously control other equipment to replenish and adjust the treatment solution, ensuring that the treatment solution is always under optimal degreasing conditions.

[0040] From the perspective of motion principles, the movement of the power unit 304 drives the processing fluid to circulate between the first space 101 and the second space 201. By precisely controlling the movement speed and frequency of the power unit 304, the flow rate and volume of the processing fluid can be adjusted, thereby affecting the degreasing effect. Simultaneously, the real-time feedback mechanism of the temperature and pH sensors 403 allows the processor to dynamically adjust the movement state of the power unit 304 based on monitored parameter changes, ensuring the processing fluid is always under optimal degreasing conditions. This not only improves the stability of the degreasing effect but also enhances the device's adaptability to different coating materials.

[0041] This testing device is suitable for various automotive sheet materials and coating types, and can dynamically adjust degreasing conditions according to the characteristics of different materials. It can accurately simulate the degreasing process in actual production and monitor and optimize the degreasing effect in real time. Through this offline simulation method, users can evaluate the degreasing effect of different coating materials in advance in an experimental environment, thus providing strong technical support for optimizing coating processes.

[0042] The experimental device described in this application is used for offline simulation of alkaline washing and degreasing operations on automotive panels. The experimental device includes a main body 100, a pretreatment component 200, a first connecting component 301, a second connecting component 302, a temperature sensor 402, a pH sensor 403, and a processor. The main body 100 has a first space 101 for accommodating the automotive panel 500; the pretreatment component 200 has a second space 201 for accommodating the treatment liquid; the first connecting component 301 is disposed between the first space 101 and the second space 201, and a power component 304 is provided on the first connecting component 301. The power component 304 is used for... The processing liquid in the second space 201 is driven to enter the first space 101 through the first connecting member 301; the second connecting member 302 is disposed between the first space 101 and the second space 201 to guide the processing liquid in the first space 101 into the second space 201; a temperature sensor 402 and a pH sensor 403 are respectively disposed in the second space 201; the processor is connected to the temperature sensor 402 and the pH sensor 403 respectively, and is used to receive and process the signals output by the temperature sensor 402 and the pH sensor 403.

[0043] The experimental apparatus, through the separate arrangement of the main body 100 and the pretreatment component 200, places the automotive panel 500 and the treatment liquid in the first space 101 and the second space 201 respectively. This effectively prevents the treatment liquid from contacting the automotive panel 500 without precise control, thus ensuring the stability of the experimental environment. The power component 304 allows the treatment liquid to flow regularly from the second space 201 into the first space 101 under the guidance of the first connecting component 301, thereby contacting the automotive panel 500 and performing degreasing. This process simulates the dynamic flow of the treatment liquid in actual production, ensuring the uniformity and consistency of the degreasing effect.

[0044] The second connecting piece 302 allows the treatment solution to return to the second space 201 after degreasing, forming a stable circulation system. This not only improves the utilization rate of the treatment solution but also ensures it remains in optimal degreasing condition through continuous replenishment. Simultaneously, the temperature sensor 402 and pH sensor 403 monitor the two key parameters of the treatment solution in real time. The processor receives and processes the signals output from these sensors, thereby achieving precise control of the degreasing process. Through this real-time monitoring and control mechanism, the device can dynamically adjust degreasing conditions according to the characteristics of different coating materials, ensuring the stability and adaptability of the degreasing effect.

[0045] From the perspective of motion principles, the movement of the power component 304 drives the processing fluid to circulate between the first space 101 and the second space 201, simulating the dynamic degreasing environment in actual production. By precisely controlling the movement speed and frequency of the power component 304, the flow rate and volume of the processing fluid can be adjusted, thereby affecting the degreasing effect. Simultaneously, the real-time feedback mechanism of the temperature and pH sensors 403 allows the processor to dynamically adjust the movement state of the power component 304 based on monitored parameter changes, ensuring the processing fluid is always under optimal degreasing conditions. This improves the stability of the degreasing effect and enhances the device's adaptability to different coating materials, effectively solving the problems existing in the prior art, such as unstable degreasing effect, poor coating adaptability, imprecise experimental environment control, and lack of degreasing effect evaluation standards. It can accurately simulate the degreasing process in actual production and monitor and control process parameters in real time.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the test apparatus further includes a heating element 405 disposed in the second space 201 for heating the treatment liquid.

[0047] The arrangement of the heating element 405 is to ensure that the treatment liquid remains within a suitable temperature range during the degreasing process, which is crucial for improving degreasing efficiency and effectiveness. The heating element 405 can be an electric heating wire, heating rod, or other high-efficiency heating element, and its selection fully considers heating efficiency and safety.

[0048] In an optional embodiment, the processor is connected to the heating element 405 and can control the heating element 405 to start / stop and / or adjust its power.

[0049] The processor can control the start / stop and / or adjust the power of the heating element 405. By intelligently controlling the power of the heating element 405, the processor can dynamically adjust the heating power based on real-time temperature data fed back by the temperature sensor 402, ensuring that the temperature of the processed liquid remains stable at the set value. This intelligent control mechanism not only improves the stability of the degreasing process but also saves energy and reduces unnecessary energy consumption.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, one end of the second connecting member 302 is disposed through the side wall of the pretreatment member 200, and a first height difference is provided between one end of the second connecting member 302 and the bottom of the second space 201, and the first height difference is greater than the height of the car panel 500.

[0051] The arrangement height of one end of the second connecting member 302 is controlled. This ensures that the treatment fluid can flow smoothly from the first space 101 back to the second space 201 during circulation, while preventing the treatment fluid from splashing or overflowing during circulation, thus improving the stability and safety of the device.

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, a third connecting member 303 is provided between the main body 100 and the pretreatment member 200. The third connecting member 303 is connected to the bottom of the main body 100, and a control valve 401 is provided on the third connecting member 303.

[0053] The third connecting component 303 further optimizes the circulation path of the treatment fluid. By adjusting the control valve 401, the user can flexibly control the flow rate and velocity of the treatment fluid according to experimental needs. This arrangement not only improves the flexibility of the device but also provides users with more operating options to adapt to different experimental scenarios. It also facilitates the complete drainage of the treatment fluid within the main component 100, simplifying maintenance.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the main body 100 is provided with an openable and closable top cover 102. The top cover 102 facilitates easy placement and removal of the automotive panel 500 by the user during the experiment, and also provides good sealing for the experimental device, preventing external impurities from entering the first space 101 and affecting the degreasing effect. The top cover 102 can be made of transparent material, allowing the user to observe the experimental process in real time.

[0055] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a top view of the bracket 103 provided in an embodiment of this application. In an optional embodiment, the main body 100 is provided with a bracket 103 for supporting the automotive panel 500, and the bracket 103 is positioned higher than the bottom surface of the first space 101. The bracket 103 not only provides stable support for the automotive panel 500, but also ensures that the treatment fluid can fully contact all surfaces of the automotive panel 500, improving the degreasing effect. The height of the bracket 103 can be adjusted according to the size of the automotive panel 500 to accommodate different sizes of automotive panels 500.

[0056] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the bracket 103 is provided with a plurality of positioning members 104, and adjacent positioning members 104 are used to hold the automotive panel 500 in place. The positioning members 104 ensure that the automotive panel 500 remains stable during the degreasing process and avoids displacement due to the flow of the treatment liquid. This design improves the reliability and repeatability of the experiment.

[0057] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment, one side of the positioning member 104 is arranged as a slope. The slope facilitates the rapid positioning and locking of the vehicle panel 500, while reducing friction between the positioning member 104 and the vehicle panel 500, thus protecting the surface of the vehicle panel 500.

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, a display 404 is connected to both the temperature sensor 402 and the pH sensor 403, and the display 404 is located externally to the pretreatment unit 200. The arrangement of the display 404 allows the user to view the temperature and pH data of the treatment solution in real time, facilitating precise monitoring of the experimental process. Through the external display 404, the user can intuitively understand the changes in key parameters during the degreasing process, adjust experimental conditions in a timely manner, and ensure optimal degreasing results.
