Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fin cleaning equipment, and in particular to a fin cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Fins are metal components attached to the surface of heat exchange devices. They increase the heat transfer efficiency by increasing the heat exchange surface area and are mainly used in scenarios that require enhanced heat exchange, such as boiler economizers and air coolers.

[0003] In the process of punching and bending fins, the fin blanks are first soaked in oil due to process requirements. This process improves the processing quality of the fin blanks, but oil stains will remain on the surface of the fins. To clean these oil stains, the traditional method is to manually clean the surface with cleaning agents and water. This method is simple and convenient when the production quantity is small, but it is inefficient for large-scale production in factories, which will greatly affect the production efficiency and has shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems associated with traditional methods, this application provides a fin cleaning device.

[0005] The fin cleaning equipment provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A fin cleaning device includes a cleaning table and a frame. The frame is provided with a track. An alkaline water tank, a first clear water tank, a weak acid tank, and a second clear water tank are arranged sequentially on the cleaning table along the length of the track. An end seat is slidably mounted on the frame along the length of the track. A sliding component is provided on the end seat to drive its reciprocating movement. A lifting frame is slidably mounted vertically on the end seat. A lifting component is provided on the end seat to drive the lifting frame to slide vertically. A hanging basket is slidably mounted on the lifting frame. A rocking component is provided on the lifting frame to drive the hanging basket to slide reciprocatingly.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, workers load a large number of fins into a basket. Then, the sliding component drives the end seat to move above the alkaline water tank. Subsequently, the lifting component drives the lifting frame to slide vertically, immersing the basket in the alkaline water tank. Afterward, the swaying component drives the basket to slide back and forth, causing the basket to sway in the alkaline water tank, ensuring that the fins in the basket fully contact the alkaline water in the tank, thereby removing the oil stains on the fins. Then, the basket is passed through the first clean water tank, the weak acid tank, and the second clean water tank in the same manner, which helps to improve the efficiency of fin cleaning.

[0007] Optionally, the sliding member includes a mounting plate disposed on the end seat, and a plurality of I-beam wheels are rotatably disposed on the mounting plate along the length direction of the track. The I-beam wheels are in rolling cooperation with the track. A sliding motor electrically connected to the control system is disposed on the mounting plate, and one of the I-beam wheels is coaxially disposed on the output shaft of the sliding motor.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the control system starts the sliding motor, and the output shaft of the sliding motor drives a connected I-beam wheel to rotate. The I-beam wheel causes the mounting plate to slide along the length of the track through friction, thereby causing the end seat to drive the basket to pass through the alkaline water tank, the first clear water tank, the weak acid tank and the second clear water tank in sequence.

[0009] Optionally, the lifting component includes a lifting screw rotatably mounted on the end seat, a guide post mounted on the end seat with its axis parallel to the axis of the lifting screw, a fixing plate threadedly connected to the lifting screw, the fixing plate mounted on the lifting frame, the fixing plate slidably mounted on the guide post, and a lifting motor electrically connected to the control system mounted on the end seat, with the lifting screw coaxially mounted on the output shaft of the lifting motor.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the control system starts the lifting motor, and the output shaft of the lifting motor drives the lifting screw to rotate in the forward direction. Under the guidance of the guide column, the lifting frame slides along the axis of the guide column, thereby causing the basket to slide back and forth in the vertical direction.

[0011] Optionally, the swaying assembly includes a horizontal frame slidably mounted on the lifting frame, a connecting member for connection between the basket and the horizontal frame, a guide rail on the lifting frame, the horizontal frame slidingly engaging with the guide rail, an electric cylinder electrically connected to the control system on the lifting frame, and the horizontal frame mounted on the piston rod of the electric cylinder.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, after the fins are installed in the basket, the workers connect the basket to the horizontal frame through the connectors. When the basket is immersed in the alkaline water tank, the control system starts the electric cylinder. The piston rod of the electric cylinder extends and retracts, causing the horizontal frame to drive the basket to slide back and forth in the alkaline water tank, thereby realizing the effect of the basket swaying in the alkaline water tank, which is conducive to the fins in the basket fully contacting the alkaline water tank.

[0013] Optionally, the connector includes a hook disposed on the horizontal frame, and a steel cable is disposed on the basket, the steel cable being hung on the hook.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, workers hook the hooks onto the steel cables. During the reciprocating sliding of the horizontal frame, the steel cables can reduce the impact of the sudden sliding of the horizontal frame, thereby reducing the possibility of liquid splashing caused by the sudden movement of the basket in the pool.

[0015] Optionally, cameras are provided on both sides of the lifting frame along the length of the track, and the cameras are electrically connected to the control system.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the camera provides real-time feedback on the position of the suspended platform, which helps improve the accuracy of the platform entering the pool, reduces the difficulty of manual operation, and improves the processing efficiency of the fins.

[0017] Optionally, a drying box is provided on the side of the second clear water tank facing away from the weak acid tank. The drying box is hollow inside and open at the top. Multiple fans are provided on the circumferential sidewalls of the drying box, and the fans are electrically connected to the control system.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, after the basket is cleaned in the second clear water tank and falls into the drying box, the control system starts the fan. The fan increases the airflow speed in the drying box, thereby drying the surface of the fins in the basket.

[0019] Optionally, a water supply pipe is provided on the gantry, and multiple water supply valves are provided on the water supply pipe along the length of the gantry rail.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, workers can replenish water to each pool in a timely manner through the water supply valve.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. Workers load a large number of fins into a basket. Then, the sliding component drives the end seat to move above the alkaline water tank. Subsequently, the lifting component drives the lifting frame to slide vertically, immersing the basket in the alkaline water tank. Then, the rocking component drives the basket to slide back and forth, causing the basket to rock in the alkaline water tank, ensuring that the fins in the basket are fully in contact with the alkaline water in the tank, thereby removing the oil stains on the fins. Then, the basket is passed through the first clean water tank, the weak acid tank, and the second clean water tank in the same way, which helps to improve the efficiency of fin cleaning. 2. The control system starts the lifting motor. The output shaft of the lifting motor drives the lifting screw to rotate in the forward direction. Under the guidance of the guide column, the lifting frame slides along the axis of the guide column, thereby causing the basket to slide back and forth in the vertical direction. 3. After the fins are installed in the suspended basket, the workers connect the basket to the horizontal frame using connectors. When the basket is immersed in the alkaline water tank, the control system starts the electric cylinder. The piston rod of the electric cylinder extends and retracts, causing the horizontal frame to move the basket back and forth in the alkaline water tank. This creates a swaying effect in the alkaline water tank, which helps the fins in the basket to fully contact the alkaline water. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0027] This application discloses a fin cleaning device.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 A fin cleaning device includes a cleaning table 1 and a frame 2. A rail 3 is bolted to the frame 2. An alkaline water tank 4, a first clear water tank 5, a weak acid tank 6, and a second clear water tank 7 are arranged sequentially on the cleaning table 1 along the length of the rail 3.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 A water supply pipe 17 is bolted to the frame 2. Four water supply valves 18 are bolted to the water supply pipe 17 along the length of the track 3. There is a corresponding water supply valve 18 at the alkaline water tank 4, the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, and the second clear water tank 7.

[0030] Workers add appropriate amounts of clean water to alkaline water tank 4, first clear water tank 5, weak acid tank 6 and second clear water tank 7 through water supply valve 18. Then, they add alkaline solution to alkaline water tank 4 and acid solution to weak acid tank 6, thereby adjusting alkaline water tank 4 and weak acid tank 6 to have appropriate pH values.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 A drying box 15 is arranged on the side of the second clear water tank 7 facing away from the weak acid tank 6. The drying box 15 is hollow inside and open at the top. Multiple fans 16 are bolted to the circumferential side wall of the drying box 15. The fans 16 are electrically connected to the control system.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An end seat 8 is arranged on the frame 2 and slides back and forth along the length of the rail 3. A sliding member 9 is arranged on the end seat 8 to drive its back and forth sliding. The sliding member 9 includes a mounting plate 91 bolted to the end seat 8. Multiple I-beam wheels 92 are rotatably connected to the mounting plate 91 along the length of the rail 3. The I-beam wheels 92 roll with the rail 3.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A sliding motor 93, which is electrically connected to the control system, is bolted to the mounting plate 91. The sliding motor 93 can be a forward and reverse motor as in the prior art. One of the I-beams 92 is coaxially bolted to the output shaft of the sliding motor 93. A lifting frame 10 is vertically slidably arranged on the end seat 8. A basket 12 is horizontally and reciprocally slidably arranged on the lifting frame 10. Cameras 14 are bolted to both sides of the lifting frame 10 along the length of the track 3. The cameras 14 are electrically connected to the control system.

[0034] Workers load a large number of fins into the suspended basket 12, and then the control system starts the sliding motor 93 and the camera 14. The camera 14 feeds back the position information of the suspended basket 12 to the control system in real time, and the control system controls the rotation direction and speed of the sliding motor 93.

[0035] The output shaft of the sliding motor 93 drives the I-beam wheel 92 to rotate. Through the friction between the I-beam wheel 92 and the track 3, the end seat 8 drives the lifting frame 10 to pass through the top of the alkaline water tank 4, the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, the second clear water tank 7 and the drying box 15 in sequence.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 The end seat 8 is provided with a lifting component 11 that drives the lifting frame 10 to slide vertically. The lifting component 11 includes a lifting screw 111 rotatably connected to the end seat 8. A guide post 112 is bolted to the end seat 8. The axis of the guide post 112 is parallel to the axis of the lifting screw 111.

[0037] Reference Figure 2A fixing plate 113 is threaded onto the lifting screw 111. The fixing plate 113 is bolted to the lifting frame 10. The fixing plate 113 is slidably sleeved on the guide post 112. A lifting motor 114 electrically connected to the control system is bolted to the end seat 8. The lifting motor 114 can be a forward and reverse motor in the prior art. The lifting screw 111 is coaxially bolted to the output shaft of the lifting motor 114.

[0038] When the lifting frame 10 moves to the top of the alkaline water tank 4, the control system stops the sliding motor 93 and starts the lifting motor 114. The output shaft of the lifting motor 114 drives the lifting screw 111 to rotate in the forward direction. Under the restriction and guidance of the guide column 112, the lifting frame 10 drives the basket 12 to gradually descend.

[0039] This immerses the basket 12 in the alkaline water tank 4, thereby removing the oil stains on the fins. Then, the basket 12 is immersed in the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, and the second clear water tank 7 in the same manner. Finally, the basket 12 is dried in the drying box 15.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The lifting frame 10 is provided with a rocking assembly 13 that drives the basket 12 to slide back and forth. The rocking assembly 13 includes a horizontal frame 131 that is horizontally slidably arranged on the lifting frame 10, and a connector 132 for connecting the basket 12 and the horizontal frame 131 is arranged between them.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connector 132 includes multiple hooks 1321 bolted to the horizontal frame 131. Multiple steel cables 1322 are attached to the basket 12. The hooks 1321 and steel cables 1322 correspond one-to-one. The steel cables 1322 are hung on the hooks 1321. The lifting frame 10 is bolted to the guide rail 133. The horizontal frame 131 and the guide rail 133 are in sliding fit. The lifting frame 10 is bolted to the electric cylinder 134 which is electrically connected to the control system. The horizontal frame 131 is bolted to the piston rod of the electric cylinder 134.

[0042] After the basket 12 is immersed in the alkaline water tank 4, the control system starts the electric cylinder 134. The piston rod of the electric cylinder 134 extends and retracts, causing the horizontal frame 131 to drive the basket 12 to slide back and forth in the alkaline water tank 4, so that the fins inside the basket 12 can fully contact the alkaline water. In the same way, the basket 12 can be shaken in the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, and the second clear water tank 7 in sequence.

[0043] The implementation principle of a fin cleaning device in this application embodiment is as follows: the worker adds an appropriate amount of clean water to the alkaline water tank 4, the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6 and the second clear water tank 7 through the water supply valve 18, then adds alkaline solution to the alkaline water tank 4 and acid solution to the weak acid tank 6, thereby adjusting the alkaline water tank 4 and the weak acid tank 6 to a suitable pH value.

[0044] Workers load a large number of fins into the suspended basket 12, and then the control system starts the sliding motor 93 and the camera 14. The camera 14 feeds back the position information of the suspended basket 12 to the control system in real time, and the control system controls the rotation direction and speed of the sliding motor 93.

[0045] The output shaft of the sliding motor 93 drives the I-beam wheel 92 to rotate. Through the friction between the I-beam wheel 92 and the track 3, the end seat 8 drives the lifting frame 10 to pass through the top of the alkaline water tank 4, the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, the second clear water tank 7 and the drying box 15 in sequence.

[0046] When the lifting frame 10 moves to the top of the alkaline water tank 4, the control system stops the sliding motor 93 and starts the lifting motor 114. The output shaft of the lifting motor 114 drives the lifting screw 111 to rotate in the forward direction. Under the restriction and guidance of the guide column 112, the lifting frame 10 drives the basket 12 to gradually descend.

[0047] This immerses the basket 12 in the alkaline water tank 4, thereby removing the oil stains on the fins. Then, the basket 12 is immersed in the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, and the second clear water tank 7 in the same manner. Finally, the basket 12 is dried in the drying box 15.

[0048] After the basket 12 is immersed in the alkaline water tank 4, the control system starts the electric cylinder 134. The piston rod of the electric cylinder 134 extends and retracts, causing the horizontal frame 131 to drive the basket 12 to slide back and forth in the alkaline water tank 4, so that the fins inside the basket 12 can fully contact the alkaline water. In the same way, the basket 12 can be shaken in the first clear water tank 5, the weak acid tank 6, and the second clear water tank 7 in sequence.

[0049] 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.
