Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of induction hardening technology, specifically a cleaning and drying component suitable for bell-shaped shell parts. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of induction hardening, the cleanliness of the workpiece surface and the presence of residual moisture have a significant impact on the final effect of induction hardening. Therefore, workpieces are often cleaned and dried before and after loading and unloading for induction hardening. The commonly used cleaning and drying method is through-type cleaning and drying, in which the workpiece passes through the cleaning mechanism and the drying mechanism in sequence on the conveyor chain. The cleaning mechanism and the drying mechanism are usually open cleaning and drying, and the workpiece is cleaned and dried by continuous high-pressure water flow and compressed air. This method consumes too much energy and is not environmentally friendly. Moreover, through-type cleaning and drying components are usually made large and occupy too much floor space. Based on the requirements, a new type of fixed-point cleaning and drying component is designed. Utility Model Content
