Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of component repair technology, and in particular to a cleaning cotton divider. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of cleaning and maintaining electronic components, rice sponges are widely used due to their softness, strong cleaning power, and efficient adsorption of dirt. For ease of storage and transportation, these sponges are typically manufactured as standardized blocks with uniform length, width, and height. In practice, workers directly use these standard sponges to wipe precision electronic components to remove dust, flux, and other contaminants.
[0003] However, standard-sized rice sponges are relatively large, which is a serious mismatch with the size of tiny components, resulting in insufficient cleaning precision and low efficiency. To solve this problem, operators usually need to cut the whole rice sponge by hand with a knife before use. However, because rice sponges are quite thick and soft, they lack effective guidance and fixation during the cutting process, making it easy for problems such as skewed cut surfaces, irregular edges, or even overall damage to occur. It is difficult to obtain small pieces of sponge with regular shape and suitable size, affecting the subsequent cleaning effect and material utilization. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a cleaning sponge divider to solve the problems that commercially available rice sponges in the prior art are too large in size and are not suitable for wiping small components, while manually dividing rice sponges makes it difficult to obtain small pieces of sponge with regular shape and suitable size, which affects the subsequent cleaning effect and material utilization.
[0005] To achieve one, some, or all of the above objectives or other objectives, this utility model proposes a cleaning cotton divider, including a housing. The housing has a receiving cavity opening towards its top. The bottom wall of the receiving cavity has a plurality of mutually perpendicular and interconnected first guide grooves and second guide grooves. The plurality of first guide grooves extend along the width direction of the receiving cavity and penetrate a pair of side walls and the top wall of the housing, and are evenly distributed along the length direction of the receiving cavity. The plurality of second guide grooves extend along the length direction of the receiving cavity and penetrate another pair of side walls and the top wall of the housing, and are evenly distributed along the width direction of the receiving cavity.
[0006] Preferably, the depth of the accommodating cavity is 5mm-20mm.
[0007] Preferably, the width of both the first guide groove and the second guide groove is 0.2mm-1.5mm.
[0008] Preferably, the housing is rectangular, and the accommodating cavity is rectangular and is centrally symmetrically arranged on the housing.
[0009] Preferably, the housing is made of plastic.
[0010] Implementing the embodiments of this utility model will have the following beneficial effects: With the above-mentioned cleaning sponge divider, when using it, the operator only needs to put the whole rice sponge into the receiving cavity, and then the auxiliary cutter is oriented into the receiving cavity through the first guide groove and the second guide groove respectively. The sponge can be easily divided into multiple small squares of uniform size and regular shape, so that the user can use the appropriately sized small rice sponge to wipe tiny components, improving the cleaning effect and material utilization.

[0014] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; the terminology used herein in the specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.
[0015] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0016] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0017] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a cleaning sponge divider includes a housing 1 with a receiving cavity 2 opening towards its top for holding standard-sized rice sponge blocks to be divided. Multiple mutually perpendicular and interconnected first guide grooves 4 and second guide grooves 5 are formed on the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 2. The first guide grooves 4 extend along the width of the receiving cavity 2 and penetrate a pair of side walls and the top wall of the housing 1, and are evenly distributed along the length of the receiving cavity 2. The multiple second guide grooves 5 extend along the length of the receiving cavity 2 and penetrate another pair of side walls and the top wall of the housing 1, and are evenly distributed along the width of the receiving cavity 2. In use, the operator simply places the whole rice sponge into the receiving cavity 2, and then uses the first guide grooves 4 and second guide grooves 5 to guide the cutting tools into the receiving cavity 2, easily dividing the rice sponge into multiple small, uniformly sized, and regularly shaped squares. This allows users to use appropriately sized small pieces of rice sponge to wipe small components, improving cleaning efficiency and material utilization. In one embodiment, the bottom wall of the housing 1 is recessed upward to form a hollow cavity 3, which ensures the structural stability of the housing 1 while reducing the material used in the housing 1 and improving economic efficiency.
[0018] Furthermore, the depth of the accommodating cavity 2 is 5mm-20mm. This depth range is the optimal range proven in practice. If the depth is too shallow, it may not be able to accommodate sponge blocks of common thicknesses, while if the depth is too large, the shell 1 will be too tall and inconvenient to carry. This depth range is compatible with most sizes of block-shaped rice sponges, ensuring that they can be stably placed in the cavity for cutting.
[0019] Furthermore, the widths of both the first guide groove 4 and the second guide groove 5 are 0.2mm-1.5mm, a width range that can accommodate the thickness of most cutting blades (such as utility knives). This avoids situations where the blade is too narrow to allow for smooth insertion and movement, or too wide to cause the blade to wobble during cutting, resulting in an uneven cut surface on the rice sponge. This width range ensures both smooth blade passage and sufficient guiding precision to guarantee cutting quality.
[0020] Furthermore, the distance between two adjacent first guide grooves 4 is 1 cm, which is one of the most commonly used and suitable dimensions for cleaning micro-components. This uniformly distributed spacing ensures that the final segmented small sponge blocks are of uniform size and moderate dimensions, meeting the precision requirements for cleaning delicate parts while also facilitating handheld operation.
[0021] Furthermore, the top wall of the housing 1 is provided with chamfers 6 at the opening edge of the first guide groove 4 and the opening edge of the second guide groove 5. The chamfer 6 can be a bevel or an arc surface. Its main function is to provide a smooth transition guide surface for the tool when the tool is lowered, so as to smoothly guide the tool into the corresponding guide groove, avoid the tool tip from hard collision with the groove opening and deviate from the direction, and improve the smoothness and success rate of operation.
[0022] Furthermore, the housing 1 is rectangular, and the receiving cavity 2 is rectangular, both symmetrically arranged on the housing 1. Designing both the housing 1 and the receiving cavity 2 as rectangles is to match the shape of standard rectangular block-shaped rice sponges on the market. The symmetrical arrangement of the receiving cavity 2 on the housing 1 ensures that the center of gravity of the entire divider is centered, making it more stable during use and less prone to tipping over. It also ensures that the walls of the housing 1 have uniform thickness and consistent structural strength.
[0023] In this embodiment, all four corners of the housing 1 are rounded, eliminating sharp edges and corners, which can effectively prevent scratches or bumps to operators during use and carrying, and significantly improve the safety of the product.
[0024] Furthermore, the shell 1 is made of plastic. Plastic has many advantages, such as low cost, easy mass production through injection molding, light weight, and portability. In this embodiment, ABS engineering plastic is preferred.
[0025] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this utility model, but do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. This utility model can be implemented in many different forms; conversely, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing specific embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any equivalent structures made using the content of this utility model specification and drawings, directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are similarly within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
