Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of thermocouple processing equipment, and more specifically, to a thermocouple cleaning and drying integrated machine. Background Technology

[0002] As a core temperature sensor in industrial production, thermocouples are widely used in various working environments such as metallurgy, chemical industry, power, and machinery manufacturing. During the production, processing, repair, and reuse of thermocouples, the surface of their temperature probes and protective tubes is easily contaminated with oil, dust, metal shavings, oxide impurities, and other pollutants. If they are not cleaned thoroughly in time, they will seriously affect the temperature measurement accuracy of the thermocouple, accelerate probe corrosion and aging, and affect the stability and safety of the production process.

[0003] Currently, traditional thermocouple cleaning methods mostly involve manual wiping, rinsing with water, or ultrasonic cleaning alone. After cleaning, the thermocouples need to be manually transferred to drying equipment for unified drying. During drying, the thermocouples are piled up together, and the thermocouples are stuck to each other, which can easily create drying dead corners, resulting in uneven heating, water stains, and incomplete drying. It is difficult to ensure consistent drying and cannot meet the needs of batch standardized operations. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.

[0005] Therefore: The first aspect of this utility model proposes a thermocouple cleaning and drying integrated machine, which is used to clean and dry thermocouples. The integrated cleaning and drying machine includes an ultrasonic cleaning chamber, a drying component, and a fixing component. The upper end of the ultrasonic cleaning chamber is open. The drying component includes a drying chamber, several fixing cylinders, an air outlet pipe, a heater, and an air pump. The drying chamber is fixed to the upper end of the ultrasonic cleaning chamber, and a buffer chamber is provided inside the drying chamber. The fixing cylinders are fixed to the drying chamber, and a portion of the fixing cylinder is located in the buffer chamber. The portion of the fixing cylinder located in the buffer chamber has several air outlets. One end of the air outlet pipe is connected to the drying chamber, and the air outlet pipe communicates with the buffer chamber. The heater is connected to the other end of the air outlet pipe. The air outlet end of the air pump is connected to the end of the heater away from the air outlet pipe. The fixing component is located above the drying chamber and is used to fix the thermocouples.

[0006] This utility model provides a thermocouple cleaning and drying integrated machine. In use, the thermocouple to be treated is first inserted into the limiting hole of the fixed base and clamped in place. The electric push rod is then activated, pushing the fixed base downwards along the slide rail with the slider, allowing the lower end of the thermocouple to pass through the fixed cylinder and extend into the ultrasonic cleaning chamber. Ultrasonic vibration is used to remove oil and impurities from the workpiece surface. After cleaning, the electric push rod slowly moves the thermocouple upwards to its original position. Then, the air pump and heater are activated, and the heated air is sent through the air outlet pipe into the buffer chamber for pressure stabilization. It is then evenly sprayed out through the circumferential air outlets of the fixed cylinder. The downward-sloping hot air quickly sweeps across the outer wall of the thermocouple, carrying away surface water stains and blowing them down into the ultrasonic cleaning chamber below, completing the drying process.
