[0020] The present invention will now be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which presently preferred embodiments of the invention are shown. However, the present invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided for thoroughness and completeness and to fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.
[0021] Example: A cleaning device for plastic recycling proposed in this utility model, see below. Figures 1-5 As shown, the system includes a base 1, a mounting bracket 2, a cylinder 3, a motor 4, a stirring frame 5, a cleaning cylinder 6, a connecting shaft 7, a locking component, and a flipping component. The mounting bracket 2 connects the left and right sides of the top of the base 1. A cylinder 3 is mounted in the middle of the upper part of the mounting bracket 2. A motor 4 is mounted on the telescopic rod of the cylinder 3 via a connecting seat. The stirring frame 5 is mounted on the output shaft of the motor 4. The cleaning cylinder 6 is located directly below the stirring frame 5. The blades on the stirring frame 5 have an inclined torsional structure design, which facilitates the tumbling and agitation of the waste plastic inside the cleaning cylinder 6 during the cleaning process, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the waste plastic. A connecting shaft 7 is symmetrically fixed to the middle of the outer wall of the cleaning cylinder 6, and the connecting shaft 7 rotates with the mounting bracket 2. The base 1 is connected in a movable manner. A locking component is provided at the top center of the base 1 to lock and limit the cleaning cylinder 6. A tilting component is provided between the connecting shaft 7 and the retaining ring 10 on the locking component to tilt and discharge the cleaning cylinder 6. The tilting component includes a rotating plate 8, a limiting block 12 and a pedal 13. The rotating plate 8 is sleeved in the middle of the connecting shaft 7, and both ends of the rotating plate 8 are designed with rounded corners, which makes it easier to use when pulling the rotating plate 8 to tilt. The retaining ring 10 on the locking component is symmetrically provided with limiting blocks 12 for locking the rotating plate 8. The pedal 13 is connected to the front side of the limiting block 12, and the upper surface of the pedal 13 is provided with anti-slip grooves at intervals, which helps to prevent slipping during use and makes it convenient to use.
[0022] Further, see Figures 1-5 As shown, the locking component includes a guide rod 9, a retaining ring 10, and an elastic element 11. Two guide rods 9 are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the top of the base 1. A retaining ring 10 is vertically slidably sleeved between the two guide rods 9 and is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the cleaning cylinder 6. The retaining ring 10 has an opening at the front to avoid interfering with the cleaned waste plastic when the cleaning cylinder 6 is turned over to pour out the material, thus facilitating the pouring of the waste plastic. An elastic element 11 is sleeved on the lower part of the guide rod 9, and the upper end of the elastic element 11 is connected to the retaining ring 10. The lower end of the elastic element 11 is connected to the base 1. The elastic element 11 is a compression spring that can provide an upward restoring force to the retaining ring 10.
[0023] In addition, see Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the limiting block 12 has a limiting groove 121 that matches the rotating plate 8, which helps to clamp and limit the rotating plate 8, thereby further improving the stability of the cleaning cylinder 6 during operation.
[0024] In use, the waste plastic to be cleaned is poured into the cleaning drum 6. The guide rod 9, retaining ring 10, and elastic element 11 work together to lock and limit the lower part of the cleaning drum 6, ensuring stability during cleaning. The cylinder 3 extends its telescopic rod downwards, causing the connecting seat, motor 4, and stirring frame 5 to extend into the cleaning drum 6. Starting the motor 4 drives the stirring frame 5 to rotate and agitate the waste plastic. After cleaning, the motor 4 is turned off, and the cylinder 3 retracts its telescopic rod upwards, resetting the connecting seat, motor 4, and stirring frame 5. To discharge the cleaned waste plastic, simply step on the pedal 13 to release the waste plastic. The positioning block 12 can drive the retaining ring 10 to move downwards and disengage from the washing cylinder 6. Then, simply pulling the rotating plate 8 forward and swinging it over will cause the washing cylinder 6 to rotate forward with the axis of the connecting shaft 7. This facilitates the convenient turning and dumping of waste plastic in the washing cylinder 6, thereby improving the washing efficiency of waste plastic recycling. The dumped waste plastic can be collected using a filter container. The operation is simple and convenient. After the waste plastic in the washing cylinder 6 has been dumped, the rotating plate 8 can be flipped upwards to reset. Releasing the pedal 13 will cause the retaining ring 10, the limiting block 12, and the pedal 13 to be driven upwards by the elastic force of the elastic element 11. The limiting groove 121 on the limiting block 12 locks the rotating plate 8, which helps to further improve the stability of the washing cylinder 6 during operation.
[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
