Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of piston ring technology, and in particular to a piston ring hanger. Background Technology

[0002] Piston rings are critical components of internal combustion engines, and their surface cleanliness directly affects the engine's sealing performance and service life. During piston ring manufacturing, multiple cleaning processes are required to remove cutting fluid, metal shavings, and oil from the surface, typically using spray cleaning or immersion cleaning methods. Because the cleaning fluid has a certain adhesion, and the piston rings themselves have annular gaps and microscopic surface roughness, a large amount of cleaning fluid inevitably adheres to the surface after cleaning. If this is directly followed by subsequent processing or storage, it can easily lead to problems such as corrosion and decreased precision. Therefore, it is necessary to hang them on a rack to drain or dry them.

[0003] Currently, most piston ring hangers used in the industry are simple rod-shaped or frame-type structures, with the hanger directly fixed to the bracket without a corresponding water collection device. When piston rings with cleaning fluid adhering to them are suspended on the hanger, the liquid drips from the piston ring surface under gravity. Because existing hangers lack an effective liquid collection structure, this dripping cleaning fluid falls directly onto the workshop floor. Although some hangers subsequently include a water collection tray below the hanger, the end of the hanger is usually located outside the tray. This means that while the tray can collect the liquid dripping from the piston rings, it cannot collect the liquid dripping from the end of the hanger, thus failing to completely solve the floor contamination problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a piston ring hanger. The hanger rod is located above the water collection tank. The piston ring is suspended from the U-shaped tube through the slot, with its upper end located inside the U-shaped tube. Most of the liquid adhering to the piston ring will drip into the water collection tank, while the liquid dripping from the piston ring inside the U-shaped tube will fall into the U-shaped tube. Since the bottom of the U-shaped tube is arc-shaped, the liquid falling into the U-shaped tube will drip from the openings on both sides of the U-shaped tube into the water collection tank below. This hanger can effectively avoid problems such as dampness, liquid accumulation, and chemical residue stains caused by cleaning liquid dripping onto the workshop floor after the piston ring is suspended, thereby reducing the frequency of workshop cleaning and environmental maintenance costs.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A piston ring hanger includes a base, with columns fixed on both sides of the base. Several hanging rods are installed on one side of each column. Each hanging rod is a U-shaped tube with an open top. The bottom of the U-shaped tube protrudes upward to form an arc surface. Several slots are provided on one side of the U-shaped tube. A water receiving groove is provided on the top of the base. The hanging rods are all located above the water receiving groove.

[0006] Furthermore, a plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water receiving tank, and the top center of the plate protrudes upward, forming a drainage channel between the plate and the side wall of the water receiving tank.

[0007] Furthermore, a drain pipe is installed at the bottom of the base, the top of the drain pipe is connected to a drain channel, and a valve is provided on the drain pipe.

[0008] Furthermore, a heater is provided on one of the columns via a plug-in assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the plug-in assembly includes a cross tube fixed to the column, one channel of the cross tube is into which a plug rod is inserted, the top end of the plug rod is fixedly connected to the heater, and a limit plate is fixed around the plug rod.

[0010] Furthermore, a crossbar is fixed to the top of each of the two columns.

[0011] Furthermore, the base is equipped with several casters at its bottom.

[0012] Furthermore, the slot is V-shaped.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The hanging rod of this utility model is located above the water receiving tank. After the piston ring is suspended from the U-shaped tube through the slot, its upper end is located inside the U-shaped tube. Most of the liquid adhering to the piston ring will drip into the water receiving tank, while the liquid dripping from the piston ring inside the U-shaped tube will fall into the U-shaped tube. Since the bottom of the U-shaped tube is arc-shaped, the liquid falling into the U-shaped tube will drip from the openings on both sides of the U-shaped tube into the water receiving tank below. This hanging device can effectively avoid problems such as dampness, liquid accumulation, and chemical residue stains caused by cleaning liquid dripping onto the workshop floor after the piston ring is suspended, thereby reducing the frequency of workshop cleaning and environmental maintenance costs.

[0014] The water receiving trough of this utility model forms an inclined surface with a high center and low edges through the plate body. Liquid dripping onto the surface of the plate body can flow into the drain channel, and the liquid in the drain channel can be quickly discharged through the drain pipe. Compared with the case where the liquid is evenly distributed in the flat bottom water receiving trough, the design of the water receiving trough of this hanging fixture can make the liquid gather in the drain channel, which can minimize the amount of liquid residue in the water receiving trough and avoid the long-term accumulation of residual liquid that will produce odor, corrode the water receiving trough, or breed bacteria.

[0015] The two openings at the top of the cross tube of this invention are inclined, allowing the operator to select the opening to which the rod is inserted based on the actual suspension position of the piston ring, thereby flexibly adjusting the orientation of the heater so that the heat can be precisely directed at the piston ring to be dried.

[0021] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0023] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0024] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a piston ring hanger includes a base 1, with columns 3 fixed on both sides of the base 1. Several hanging rods 4 are installed on one side of the columns 3. The hanging rods 4 are U-shaped tubes with open tops. The bottom of the U-shaped tubes protrudes upwards to form an arc surface. Several slots 401 are opened on one side of the U-shaped tubes. A water receiving groove 105 is opened on the top of the base 1. The hanging rods 4 are all located above the water receiving groove 105.

[0026] In this embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the piston rings can be suspended through the slots 401 on the same hanging rod 4. Since the hanging rods 4 are all located above the water receiving tank 105, the cleaning liquid adhering to the piston rings will fall into the water receiving tank 105 under the action of gravity. Furthermore, since the bottom of the U-shaped tube protrudes upward to form an arc surface, the liquid falling into the U-shaped tube will also flow to both sides of the U-shaped tube under the action of gravity, and thus fall from both sides of the U-shaped tube into the water receiving tank 105 under the action of gravity. This effectively prevents the cleaning liquid on the piston rings from falling to the ground and causing pollution to the workshop.

[0027] The slot 401 is V-shaped, with a large opening at the top and a small opening at the bottom, making it easy for personnel to insert the piston ring into the slot 401.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a plate 102 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water receiving tank 105. The top center of the plate 102 protrudes upward. A drainage channel 101 is formed between the plate 102 and the side wall of the water receiving tank 105. A drain pipe 103 is installed at the bottom of the base 1. The top of the drain pipe 103 is connected to the drainage channel 101. A valve 104 is provided on the drain pipe 103.

[0029] Because the top center of the plate 102 protrudes upwards, the liquid falling on the plate 102 will flow into the drain 101 under the action of gravity. Therefore, when the personnel open the valve 104, the liquid in the water tank 105 can be discharged. The liquid is evenly distributed in the water tank 105, which can more effectively avoid liquid residue.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a heater 9 is installed on one of the columns 3 via a plug-in assembly. The plug-in assembly includes a cross tube 6 fixed to the column 3. A plug rod 7 is inserted into one of the channels of the cross tube 6. The top end of the plug rod 7 is fixedly connected to the heater 9. A limit plate 8 is fixed around the plug rod 7.

[0031] Since the limiting plate 8 cannot enter the cross tube 6, the length of the insertion rod 7 into the cross tube 6 can be determined. Thus, the heater 9 can be fixed to one side of the hanging rod 4 using the insertion rod 7. When the heater 9 is working, it can dissipate heat, thereby quickly drying the piston ring and removing moisture from its surface.

[0032] Furthermore, the two openings at the top of the cross tube 6 are set at an angle, allowing personnel to insert the rod 7 into one of the openings to change the position of the heater 9 and thus change the drying direction of the heater 9 as needed.

[0033] Heater 9 is a tubular electric heater, and it is existing technology, so we will not go into details here.

[0034] Among them, the tops of the two columns 3 are fixed with crossbars 5, thereby improving the stability of the columns 3.

[0035] The base 1 has several casters 2 installed at its bottom, making the hanger easy to move.

[0036] Working principle: The piston ring is suspended by the adjacent V-shaped grooves 401 on the hanging rod 4. The cleaning fluid adhering to the piston ring will fall into the water receiving tank 105 under the action of gravity. Since the hanging rod 4 is a U-shaped tube with an upward-protruding arc surface, the liquid in the tube flows to both sides and falls into the water receiving tank 105. Since the bottom plate 102 of the water receiving tank 105 has an upward-protruding center at the top, the liquid flows into the drain channel 101. At this time, the personnel open the valve 104 and the liquid can be discharged through the drain pipe 103 to reduce residue. Next, the personnel insert the insertion rod 7 into the cross tube 6 to fix the heater 9. The insertion port of the cross tube 6 is selected according to the position of the piston ring suspension so that the drying direction of the heater 9 is aligned with the suspended piston ring. Next, the personnel control the heater 9 to work, and its heat dissipation quickly dries the moisture on the surface of the piston ring to facilitate the subsequent treatment of the piston ring.

[0037] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent transformations or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
