Abstract

Disclosed is a hub cleaning device, including a base ( 1 ), a mounting transition plate ( 2 ), a nozzle adjusting module ( 3 ), hub conveying modules ( 4 ) and a work fixture ( 5 ), in which the nozzle adjusting module ( 3 ) is connected onto the mounting transition plate ( 2 ), and the mounting transition plate ( 2 ) is fixed on the base ( 1 ); the work fixture ( 5 ) is arranged at a position parallel to the base ( 1 ), so that the nozzle adjusting module ( 3 ) can face the front side of a hub ( 6 ); and the hub conveying modules ( 4 ) are arranged on two sides of the work fixture ( 5 ). The device is simple in structure, and one device can complete cleaning of multiple types of hubs, thereby greatly reducing the input of enterprises on cleaning devices and saving a lot of money for the enterprises.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A hub cleaning device, including a base, a mounting transition plate, a nozzle adjusting module, hub conveying modules and a work fixture, wherein
the nozzle adjusting module is connected onto the mounting transition plate, and the mounting transition plate is fixed on the base; the work fixture is arranged at such a position that the nozzle adjusting module can face a front side of a hub; one or more of the hub conveying modules are arranged on either sides of the work fixture;
the nozzle adjusting module includes a transverse drive motor, a transverse ball screw, a transverse substrate, transverse guide posts, a transverse slide block, water pipes, a longitudinal drive motor, a longitudinal substrate, a longitudinal ball screw, longitudinal guide posts, a longitudinal slide block, a nozzle mounting disc, an ultrasonic sensor and high pressure nozzles; the longitudinal substrate is fixed on the mounting transition plate, the longitudinal drive motor is fixed on the longitudinal substrate, the longitudinal ball screw is mounted on the longitudinal substrate, and a shaft of the longitudinal ball screw is connected with a shaft of the longitudinal drive motor; the longitudinal slide block is mounted on a nut of the longitudinal ball screw and moves together with the nut of the longitudinal ball screw; the longitudinal guide posts penetrate through the longitudinal slide block, and are fixed on the longitudinal substrate to provide linear guiding for the longitudinal slide block; the transverse substrate is connected onto the longitudinal slide block; the transverse drive motor is fixed on the transverse substrate, the transverse ball screw is mounted on the transverse substrate, and a shaft of the transverse ball screw is connected with a shaft of the transverse drive motor; the transverse slide block is mounted on a nut of the transverse ball screw and moves together with the nut of the transverse ball screw; the nozzle mounting disc is fixed on the transverse slide block, and the high pressure nozzles and the ultrasonic sensor are fixed on the nozzle mounting disc; each of the water pipes communicate with each of the high pressure nozzles respectively, and provide high pressure water for the high pressure nozzles;
the work fixture includes a support frame, V-shaped blocks, a baffle, a pressure block, a threaded rod, a water fender and a handle; the V-shaped blocks are arranged on the support frame and in two columns and used for center positioning on rims of two sides of the hub, and in each of the two columns there is provided one V-shaped block of the V-shaped blocks, the baffle is arranged on one side of the V-shaped blocks, and the pressure block is arranged on the other side of the V-shaped blocks and used for fixing the hub; the pressure block is adjusted via the handle, and the threaded rod is fixed with the pressure block and the handle and connected with a threaded hole in the support frame.
