Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ultrasonic cleaning technology, specifically an ultrasonic cleaning device for tableware production. Background Technology
[0002] During the production process, tableware is usually cleaned using ultrasonic cleaning machines to remove contaminants such as lubricating oil, stretching oil, and metal powder used in the tableware processing.
[0003] During the cleaning process, the ultrasonic cleaner generates high-frequency electrical signals through its internal ultrasonic generator. The mechanical vibrations radiate high-frequency sound waves into the cleaning liquid through the walls of the cleaning tank, forming countless tiny vacuum bubble nuclei. These tiny bubbles are compressed during the positive pressure phase of the sound waves and rapidly expand and burst during the negative pressure phase. The bursting of the tiny bubbles generates shock waves of thousands of atmospheres, which continuously impact every corner of the tableware surface, peeling away contaminants from the substrate.
[0004] Traditional ultrasonic tableware cleaners typically involve stacking large quantities of tableware directly in a cleaning basket and then immersing it in the cleaning tank. Under vibration, the tableware is prone to shifting, resulting in close contact between the tableware. This creates a physical shield at the contact surface, making it difficult for ultrasonic energy and cleaning fluid to reach these areas. This leads to uneven cleaning of the tableware surface and creates cleaning dead spots.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides an ultrasonic cleaning device for tableware production. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Specific implementation examples are given below.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 5As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, an ultrasonic cleaning device for tableware production includes an ultrasonic cleaner 1; a cleaning tank 11 is provided in the middle of the ultrasonic cleaner 1; two electric push rods 12 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the ultrasonic cleaner 1; the two electric push rods 12 are arranged opposite each other; a connecting rod 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 12; a placement rack 14 is fixedly connected to the ends of the two connecting rods 13; several sets of rubber blocks 15 are installed in the middle of the placement rack 14; each set consists of two rubber blocks 15; the rubber blocks 15 are arranged at an angle; the several sets of rubber blocks 15 are equidistantly distributed; an installation component 2 is provided between the rubber blocks 15 and the placement rack 14; a placement mesh plate 16 is fixedly connected to the middle of the placement rack 14; a liquid storage component 3 is installed in the middle of the ultrasonic cleaner 1; during operation, when the tableware is being cleaned, the control system first controls the electric push rods 12 to open, the output end of the electric push rods 12 drives the connecting rods 13 to move upward, and the connecting rods 13 move the tableware upward. The rack 14 rises from inside the washing tank 11, and then the tableware is placed in two corresponding rubber blocks 15. The bottom edge of the tableware enters the two rubber blocks 15, and the tableware is fixed by the two rubber blocks 15, so that the tableware is spaced a certain distance apart. Chopsticks and spoons are placed in the placement mesh plate 16. The electric push rod 12 is opened again. The electric push rod 12 drives the rack 14 to move downward through the connecting rod 13, so that the rack 14 enters the washing water flow and discharges the stored cleaning agent into the water flow. The tableware is cleaned by the bursting bubbles generated by ultrasonic waves. The above structure can maintain a fixed distance between the tableware, so that the surface of each tableware can be evenly surrounded and impacted by cavitation impact and cleaning liquid. It reduces the dead corners formed by the contact surface due to traditional direct stacking, and reduces the collision and friction between tableware during the washing process, reducing the scratches and deformation of the tableware.
[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, the mounting assembly 2 includes an elastic retaining ring 21; the elastic retaining ring 21 is fixedly connected to the middle of the rubber block 15; two elastic retaining blocks 22 are fixedly connected to the ends of the elastic retaining ring 21; the two elastic retaining blocks 22 are fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the elastic retaining ring 21; the placement frame 14 has several sets of slots 23 in the middle; the elastic retaining blocks 22 are installed inside the corresponding slots 23; during operation, when a rubber block 15 is worn or damaged, a certain force can be used to pull the two ends of the elastic retaining ring 21 outward, and the elastic retaining blocks 22 will undergo elastic deformation under pressure. When the elastic locking block 22 detaches from the slot 23, the designated rubber block 15 can be directly removed from the rack 14. During installation, the elastic locking blocks 22 at both ends of the elastic locking ring 21 are locked into the slot 23, allowing for quick replacement of the rubber block 15. With the above structure, the rubber block 15 will wear, age, or deform under long-term use. Damaged or deformed rubber blocks 15 can be disassembled and replaced individually. Furthermore, it can be customized according to the unique shape of specific tableware to meet the cleaning needs of different products, making maintenance convenient.
[0023] like Figure 5As shown, the liquid storage assembly 3 includes a liquid storage box 31; the liquid storage box 31 is installed on the side wall of the cleaning tank 11; the top of the ultrasonic cleaner 1 has two mounting slots 32; two mounting blocks 33 are fixedly connected to the top of the liquid storage box 31; the two mounting blocks 33 are installed in the middle of the corresponding mounting slots 32; one end of the top of the mounting block 33 is provided with a liquid inlet 34; a drain assembly 4 is installed inside the liquid storage box 31; during operation, the cleaning agent is injected into the liquid storage box 31 through the liquid inlet 34, the ends of the mounting blocks 33 at both ends of the liquid storage box 31 are placed in the corresponding positions of the mounting slots 32, and moved downwards to allow the mounting blocks 33 to enter the mounting slots 32, thereby fixing the liquid storage box 31 to one side of the cleaning tank 11 through the mounting blocks 33, thus storing the cleaning agent. When used, the cleaning agent is discharged quantitatively through the drain assembly 4. The above structure can reduce the need for operators to repeatedly pick up and put in the cleaning agent when cleaning tableware, facilitate frequent small-dose replenishment by operators, improve cleaning efficiency, and reduce the mess caused by random placement of the cleaning agent.
[0024] like Figure 5 As shown, the drainage assembly 4 includes two slide rods 41; the two slide rods 41 are slidably connected to the middle of the liquid storage box 31; a pressing plate 43 is fixedly connected to the top of the two slide rods 41; a spring 42 is fixedly connected between the pressing plate 43 and the liquid storage box 31; a baffle 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the two slide rods 41; the baffle 44 is located at the bottom of the liquid storage box 31; multiple sealing blocks 45 are fixedly connected to the middle of the baffle 44; multiple drainage holes 46 are opened at the bottom of the liquid storage box 31; the sealing blocks 45 are correspondingly arranged with the drainage holes 46; during operation, when using cleaning agent, the pressing plate 43 is pressed first, and the slide rods 41 under pressure move in the liquid storage box 31. When the middle part slides downward, the spring 42 elastically contracts, at which point the baffle 44 separates from the bottom of the liquid storage box 31, and multiple sealing blocks 45 move out from the bottom of the liquid storage box 31. The cleaning agent is evenly discharged through multiple drain holes 46 and enters the cleaning fluid. When the pressing plate 43 is released, the spring 42 elastically resets, causing the slide bar 41 to move upward. The sealing block 45 enters the middle of the corresponding drain hole 46, sealing the bottom of the liquid storage box 31 and preventing the cleaning agent from flowing out. Through the above structure, the cleaning agent can be evenly discharged from the bottom of the liquid storage box 31, allowing it to enter the cleaning fluid in a measured amount, and the stored cleaning fluid can be replenished as needed.
[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, an anti-slip pad 5 is fixed to the middle of the rubber block 15; the anti-slip pad 5 is set inside the rubber block 15; during operation, when the tableware is placed between the two rubber blocks 15, the anti-slip pad 5 increases the friction between the rubber block 15 and the tableware. Through the above structure, the tableware can be firmly locked inside the rubber block 15, reducing the risk of it coming loose from the rubber block 15 due to vibration, and maintaining the stability of the tableware during the washing process.
[0026] like Figure 3As shown, a baffle 6 is installed in the middle of the placement mesh plate 16; the baffle 6 is fixed inside the placement mesh plate 16; during operation, the tableware placed inside the placement mesh plate 16 is separated by the baffle 6 to prevent mechanical vibration from causing it to shift and stack. The above structure can prevent some chopsticks and spoons from coming into direct contact during the washing process and prevent collision damage between tableware.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the rubber block 15 has a toothed groove 7 in the middle; the toothed groove 7 is located on both sides of the rubber block 15; during operation, the toothed groove 7 increases the contact area between the cleaning liquid and the tableware. Through the above structure, the cleaning liquid can penetrate into the tableware by forming a network through the toothed groove 7, reducing the shielding effect between the rubber block 15 and the tableware, which is conducive to the exhaust of air and allows the cleaning liquid to better contact the tableware in the rubber block 15.
[0028] During operation, when washing tableware, the control system first activates the electric push rod 12. The output end of the electric push rod 12 drives the connecting rod 13 upward, which lifts the placement rack 14 from inside the washing tank 11. Then, the tableware is placed in two corresponding rubber blocks 15, with the bottom edges of the tableware entering the two rubber blocks 15, which hold and fix the tableware in place, maintaining a certain distance between them. Chopsticks and spoons are then placed in the placement mesh plate 16. The electric push rod 12 is activated again, and through the connecting rod 13, it drives the placement rack 14 downward, causing the placement rack... 14. The stored cleaning agent is discharged into the water flow. The tableware is cleaned by the bursting bubbles generated by ultrasonic waves. When a rubber block 15 is worn or damaged, a certain force can be used to pull the two ends of the elastic retaining ring 21 outward. Under pressure, the elastic retaining block 22 will deform elastically. When the elastic retaining block 22 disengages from the groove 23, the designated rubber block 15 can be directly removed from the placement rack 14. During installation, simply lock the elastic retaining blocks 22 at both ends of the elastic retaining ring 21 into the groove 23. The rubber block 15 can be quickly replaced. The cleaning agent is introduced through the liquid inlet 3. 4. Inject the cleaning agent into the storage box 31. Place the mounting blocks 33 at both ends of the storage box 31 into the mounting grooves 32, and move them downwards to allow the mounting blocks 33 to enter the mounting grooves 32. The storage box 31 is then fixed to one side of the cleaning tank 11 by the mounting blocks 33, thus storing the cleaning agent. When in use, the cleaning agent is discharged through the drain assembly 4. When using the cleaning agent, first press the pressing plate 43. The slide bar 41, under pressure, slides downwards in the middle of the storage box 31, and the spring 42 elastically contracts. At this time, the baffle 44 separates from the bottom of the storage box 31, and multiple sealing blocks 45 exit from the storage box 31. The bottom is removed, and the cleaning agent is evenly discharged through multiple drain holes 46 and enters the cleaning solution. Releasing the pressing plate 43 causes the slide bar 41 to move upward through the elastic reset of the spring 42. The sealing block 45 enters the middle of the corresponding drain hole 46 and seals the bottom of the liquid storage box 31 to prevent the cleaning agent from flowing out. When the tableware is placed between the two rubber blocks 15, the anti-slip pad 5 increases the friction between the rubber block 15 and the tableware. The baffle 6 separates the tableware placed inside the placement mesh plate 16 to prevent mechanical vibration from causing it to shift and stack. The toothed groove 7 increases the contact area between the cleaning solution and the tableware.
