Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of container manufacturing technology, and in particular to a container assembly line cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] In container manufacturing, drilling is a crucial preliminary step before assembling the container frame and floor, generating a large amount of metal shavings. If these shavings remain inside the container, they can scratch the surface of the subsequently installed wooden flooring, jam connectors, and even affect the container's sealing performance. Therefore, shavings removal has become an indispensable process in container production lines. As the container manufacturing industry transforms towards large-scale and automated production, the industry has placed higher demands on the automation level and environmental standards of shavings removal processes, making traditional manual cleaning methods unsuitable for the needs of assembly line production.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN218659643U discloses a container assembly line cleaning system, which includes a cleaning trolley, a trolley parking platform, a debris screw conveyor, a debris separator, woven bags for iron filings, and woven bags for wood chips. The cleaning trolley is parked on the trolley parking platform. When the cleaning trolley needs to enter the container for cleaning, the trolley parking platform rotates and lowers an entry plate. One end of the entry plate is hinged to the trolley parking platform, and the other end is mounted on the container opening. The cleaning trolley enters the container along the entry plate of the trolley parking platform to clean and collect the debris inside the container.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, after the inlet plate rotates and is lowered, it will come into contact with the bottom opening of the container, causing the cleaning trolley to be unable to clean the debris at the contact point. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to clean up debris in the blind spot formed by the entry plate and the container opening, this application provides a container assembly line cleaning device.

[0006] The container assembly line cleaning device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A container assembly line cleaning device includes a cleaning trolley and a trolley parking platform. The cleaning trolley is also equipped with an air jet pipe and an adjustment assembly for rotating and adjusting the air jet pipe. The adjustment assembly includes a rotating base fixed to the cleaning trolley, a rotating disk rotatably mounted on the rotating base, and a fixing screw connecting the rotating disk and the rotating base. The air jet pipe is fixed to the rotating disk. The rotating base has a threaded hole that is threaded to the fixing screw. The rotating disk has a through hole for the fixing screw to be inserted.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cleaning trolley is working, the angle of the jet pipe can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment component: loosen the fixing screw, rotate the rotating disk around the axis of the fixing screw to drive the jet pipe to turn, so that the jet nozzle of the jet pipe is aligned with the blind area of ​​the contact between the entry plate and the container opening floor; after adjustment, tighten the fixing screw so that it passes through the through hole and locks with the threaded hole, fix the angle between the rotating disk and the jet pipe, thereby cleaning the debris in the blind area by the jet airflow, improving the comprehensiveness of the container assembly line cleaning system.

[0008] Optionally, the rotating base is provided with a fixed protrusion, and the rotating disk is provided with a plurality of fixed blocks that abut against the fixed protrusion. Adjacent fixed blocks form a positioning gap for arranging the fixed protrusion. The rotating disk is provided with a fixing groove for arranging the fixing blocks. A compression spring is provided on the inner wall of the fixing groove. One end of the compression spring is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing groove, and the other end of the compression spring is fixedly connected to the fixing block.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the rotating disk is rotated, the fixed protrusion squeezes the fixed block to compress the spring and retract into the fixed groove, which facilitates the smooth rotation of the rotating disk; when the target angle is reached, the fixed protrusion is embedded in the positioning gap formed by the adjacent fixed block, and the fixed block is reset under the action of the compressed spring and abuts against the fixed protrusion, realizing the pre-positioning of the rotating disk, reducing the angle offset when tightening the fixed screw, and improving the adjustment accuracy.

[0010] Optionally, the fixing block is provided with a guide slope for the fixing protrusion to abut against.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide slope can convert the radial thrust of the fixed protrusion into the axial contraction force of the fixed block, making it easier for the fixed protrusion to squeeze the fixed block into the fixed groove when the rotating disk rotates, reducing jamming during the adjustment process, reducing operating force, and improving the smoothness of angle adjustment.

[0012] Optionally, the jet pipe is provided with a locking part that is fixed to the rotating disk, and the jet pipe is fixedly connected to the rotating disk through the locking part.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking part provides a stable connection structure between the jet pipe and the rotating disk, ensuring that the jet pipe will not loosen or deviate when rotating synchronously with the rotating disk, and ensuring that the jet direction is aligned with the cleaning blind area; at the same time, the detachable design of the locking part also facilitates the individual disassembly, maintenance or replacement of the jet pipe.

[0014] Optionally, the jet pipe is provided with an extension plate at one end near the rotating disk, and the locking part is a plug-in post provided on the side of the extension plate near the rotating disk, and the rotating disk has a mounting hole for inserting the plug-in post.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the extension plate can increase the connection contact area between the jet pipe and the rotating disk. The cooperation between the plug and the mounting hole enables the jet pipe and the rotating disk to be quickly positioned and installed, simplifying the assembly process. At the same time, it provides basic structural support for the subsequent circumferential limiting or locking of the jet pipe.

[0016] Optionally, the cross-section of the plug post is rectangular.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the rectangular cross-section plug and mounting hole can restrict the circumferential rotation of the jet pipe relative to the rotating disk, avoid the jet pipe from rotating due to the reaction force during jetting, and ensure the stability of the jetting direction; the plug-in connection also facilitates the quick disassembly and assembly of the jet pipe, improving maintenance efficiency.

[0018] Optionally, the side wall of the insertion post is provided with an elastic plunger component for locking with the rotating disk. The elastic plunger component includes a plunger housing, a plunger spring, and a plunger ball head. The insertion post has an installation groove for installing the plunger housing. The plunger housing has a plunger groove for arranging the plunger spring. One end of the plunger spring is fixed to the inner wall of the plunger housing, and the other end of the plunger spring is fixedly connected to the plunger ball head. The inner wall of the installation hole has a plunger ball groove for locking with the plunger ball head.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the plug is inserted into the mounting hole, the plunger ball head is squeezed and compressed by the inner wall of the mounting hole, and retracts into the plunger groove, which facilitates smooth insertion. When it is inserted into place, the plunger ball head pops out under the action of the plunger spring and embeds into the plunger ball groove, forming a lock to prevent the jet pipe from accidentally falling off and enhance the connection stability. When disassembling, only a pulling force needs to be applied to retract the ball head into the groove, which is convenient to operate and takes into account both connection reliability and disassembly efficiency.

[0020] Optionally, the locking part includes a rectangular pressure plate and a fixing screw. One end of the rectangular pressure plate is hinged to the rotating disk, and the other end of the rectangular pressure plate has a fixing through hole for the fixing screw to pass through. The rotating disk has a fixing screw hole that corresponds to the fixing through hole and is threadedly engaged with the fixing screw.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, another structural form of the locking part is disclosed. After the jet pipe is placed in the preset position of the rotating disk, the rectangular pressure plate is flipped to fit against the outer wall of the jet pipe. Then, the jet pipe is firmly fixed by locking the fixing screw through the fixing through hole and the fixing screw hole. The rectangular pressure plate can increase the contact area with the jet pipe and improve the fixing stability. The hinge design allows the rectangular pressure plate to be flipped quickly, simplifying the disassembly and assembly process of the jet pipe.

[0022] Optionally, the rectangular pressure plate is provided with an abutting surface that abuts against the jet pipe, and the abutting surface is provided with an anti-slip washer.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip washer can increase the friction coefficient between the rectangular pressure plate and the jet pipe, preventing the jet pipe from slipping relative to the rectangular pressure plate during jetting or adjustment, and further improving the fixing reliability; at the same time, the anti-slip washer can also buffer the pressure during locking, avoiding direct squeezing by the rectangular pressure plate and causing wear on the surface of the jet pipe, thus protecting the jet pipe structure.

[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The angle of the jet pipe can be adjusted by adjusting the components, so that the jet pipe is aimed at the blind spot where the entry plate meets the container opening floor, eliminating the cleaning dead corners of traditional cleaning devices and improving the comprehensiveness of the container assembly line cleaning system; 2. The positioning gap between the fixed protrusion and the adjacent fixed block is locked together, allowing for multi-level adjustment of the jet pipe angle. The locking structure of the elastic plunger component improves the connection stability of the cleaning device, optimizes the device performance in many aspects, and makes the jet pipe angle adjustable and reliably fixed. 3. The locking part discloses two detachable designs: one is the insertion and connection of the plug and the plug hole, and the other is the rectangular pressure plate pressing the air pipe. This ensures that the air pipe is installed firmly and is easy to disassemble and maintain, which is suitable for the high-efficiency cleaning requirements of the production line.

[0033] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-7 This application will be described in further detail.

[0034] This application discloses a container assembly line cleaning device.

[0035] Example 1: Reference Figure 1 The container assembly line cleaning device includes a trolley parking platform 1 and a cleaning trolley 2. The trolley parking platform 1 is equipped with an entry plate 11 for the cleaning trolley 2 to enter the container; one end of the entry plate 11 is hinged to the trolley parking platform 1. When the cleaning trolley 2 enters the container, the trolley parking platform 1 rotates and lowers the entry plate 11, causing the other end of the entry plate 11 to abut against the floor at the container opening. The entry plate 11 and the bottom plate of the container opening form a cleaning blind zone.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 The cleaning trolley 2 is equipped with an air jet pipe 3 for cleaning debris in blind spots and an adjustment component 4 for rotating and adjusting the air jet pipe 3. One end of the air jet pipe 3 is connected to the gas hose 31 of the plant's gas source, and the other end extends to the opening of the container to clean debris in blind spots with air jets.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The adjustment assembly 4 includes a rotating base 41 fixed to both sides of the sweeping cart 2, a rotating disk 42 rotatably mounted on the rotating base 41, and a fixing screw 43 connecting the rotating disk 42 and the rotating base 41. Both the rotating base 41 and the rotating disk 42 are disc-shaped, and the rotating base 41 is integrally formed with the sweeping cart 2. The rotating disk 42 has several fixing blocks 421, with positioning gaps 422 formed between adjacent fixing blocks 421. The rotating base 41 has fixing protrusions 411 that abut against the fixing blocks 421. The fixing protrusions 411 achieve pre-positioning of the rotating disk 42 by embedding into the positioning gaps 422 between two adjacent sets of fixing blocks 421.

[0038] The rotating disk 42 has a fixing groove 423 for arranging the fixing block 421. A compression spring 424 for connecting the fixing block 421 and the rotating disk 42 is installed on the inner wall of the fixing groove 423. One end of the compression spring 424 is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing groove 423, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixing block 421. When the rotating disk 42 rotates, the fixing protrusion 411 presses against the fixing block 421, causing it to compress the spring 424 and retract into the fixing groove 423, facilitating smooth rotation of the rotating disk 42. The fixing protrusion 411 is a rectangular cuboid, and the fixing block 421 has a right-angled trapezoidal cross-section. The fixing block 421 has a guide slope 425 for the fixing protrusion 411 to abut against, making it easier for the fixing protrusion 411 to press the fixing block 421 into the fixing groove 423 when the rotating disk 42 rotates.

[0039] The rotating base 41 has a threaded hole 412 that mates with the fixing screw 43, and the rotating disk 42 has a through hole 426 for inserting the fixing screw 43. The end of the fixing screw 43 near the rotating disk 42 has a clamping surface 431 for pressing the rotating disk 42. The fixing screw 43 passes through the through hole 426 and locks itself in place with the threaded hole 412, thus clamping the rotating disk 42 with the clamping surface 431, thereby fixing the rotating disk 42 to the rotating base 41.

[0040] Reference Figure 5 The jet pipe 3 is equipped with a locking part 5 that is fixed to the rotating disk 42. The jet pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk 42 through the locking part 5. An extension plate 6 is installed at one end of the jet pipe 3 near the rotating disk 42. The locking part 5 is a plug-in post 51 on the side of the extension plate 6 near the rotating disk 42. The rotating disk 42 has a mounting hole 427 for the plug-in post 51 to be inserted. The plug-in post 51 is a cuboid with a rectangular cross-section. The extension plate 6 is inserted into the mounting hole 427 through the plug-in post 51, realizing the quick positioning and installation of the jet pipe 3 and the rotating disk 42. The plug-in post 51 and the mounting hole 427 cooperate to circumferentially limit the jet pipe 3.

[0041] An elastic plunger component 7 is installed on the side wall of the insertion post 51. The elastic plunger component 7 includes a plunger housing 71, a plunger spring 72, and a plunger ball head 73. The insertion post 51 has an installation groove 511 for installing the plunger housing 71, and a plunger groove 711 for arranging the plunger spring 72. One end of the plunger spring 72 is fixed to the inner wall of the plunger housing 71, and the other end of the plunger spring 72 is fixedly connected to the plunger ball head 73. The inner wall of the mounting hole 427 has a plunger ball groove 4271 that locks into the plunger ball head 73. When the insertion post 51 is inserted into the mounting hole 427, the plunger ball head 73 is compressed by the inner wall of the mounting hole 427, causing the plunger spring 72 to retract into the plunger groove 711, facilitating the insertion of the insertion post 51. When the plug 51 is fully inserted, the plunger ball head 73 pops out under the action of the plunger spring 72 and embeds into the plunger ball groove 4271, forming a lock between the plug 51 and the rotating disk 42, thus enhancing the connection stability.

[0042] The implementation principle of Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows: The insertion post 51 of the extension plate 6 is aligned with the mounting hole 427 and inserted. When the insertion post 51 is fully inserted, the plunger ball head 73 and the plunger ball groove 4271 are locked together, achieving a fixed connection between the jet pipe 3 and the rotating disk 42. When the rotating disk 42 is rotated, the fixing protrusion 411 on the rotating base 41 contacts the fixing block 421 of the rotating disk 42. The fixing protrusion 411 is embedded in the positioning gap 422 between two adjacent sets of fixing blocks 421, so that the jet nozzle of the jet pipe 3 is aligned with the cleaning blind area, achieving the pre-positioning of the jet pipe 3. The fixing screw 43 is tightened, and the fixing screw 43 presses the rotating disk 42 through the pressing surface 431, thus fixing the rotating disk 42 to the rotating base 41.

[0043] The air source is delivered to the jet pipe 3 via the gas hose 31, and then extended from the jet pipe 3 to one end of the container opening where it is ejected. The high-pressure airflow acts directly on the debris in the blind spot where the entry plate 11 meets the container, blowing the debris into the container and removing residual debris in the blind spot. Finally, the trolley parking platform 1 rotates and lowers the entry plate 11, and the cleaning trolley 2 enters the container along the entry plate 11 to clean, effectively solving the problem of blind spots in traditional cleaning devices.

[0044] Example 2: Except for the structure of the locking part 5, the structure of this example is the same as that of Example 1.

[0045] Reference Figure 7The locking part 5 includes a rectangular pressure plate 52 and a fixing screw 53. The rectangular pressure plate 52 is a hollow rectangular body with a contact surface 521 that abuts against the jet pipe 3. One end of the rectangular pressure plate 52 is hinged to the rotating disk 42, and the other end of the rectangular pressure plate 52 has a fixing through hole 522 for the fixing screw 53 to pass through. The rotating disk 42 has a fixing screw hole 428 that corresponds to the fixing through hole 522 and is threadedly engaged with the fixing screw 53. The rectangular pressure plate 52 is locked by inserting the fixing screw 53 into the fixing screw hole 428, thereby fixing it to the rotating disk. The jet pipe 3 is fixed to the rotating disk 42 by the pressure of the rectangular pressure plate 52. An anti-slip washer 523 is provided on the contact surface 521 and is glued to the contact surface 521.

[0046] The implementation principle of Embodiment 2 of this application is as follows: Rotate the rotating disk 42 to move it to a preset position, then flip the rectangular pressure plate 52 so that the anti-slip washer 523 fits against the outer wall of the jet pipe 3. Then, pass the fixing screw 53 through the fixing through hole 522 and tighten the fixing screw 53 to lock it with the fixing screw hole 428, thus fixing the jet pipe 3 to the rotating disk 42. Finally, repeat the operation in Embodiment 1 to clean the inside of the container.

[0047] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
