Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for cleaning workpieces according to the preamble of claim 1
  • a known alternative to manual cleaning are cleaning machines in which the components are first exposed to a liquid cleaning medium and then dried. Such cleaning machines are extremely expensive and costly and cause by the required cycle times a significant slowdown of the production process.
  • DE 29 36 779 A shows a device for cleaning motor vehicle brakes, in which the brake to be cleaned is covered by a suction hood and is acted upon by movable nozzles with compressed air.
  • a similar device for cleaning air filters is described in US 4,808,234 A. However, it has been found that in practice such devices are not able to provide sufficient cleaning of workpieces within a short time.
  • Object of the present invention is to develop the method of the type described above so that even with firmly adhering and difficult to remove impurities within a short time sufficient cleaning is achieved.
  • the noise emissions should be minimized and the risk of injury as well as the pollution of the indoor air should be minimized.
  • the device should be simple and inexpensive to produce and have a small footprint.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for carrying out such a method.
  • An essential aspect of the present invention is that the loading of the workpiece by the individual jets so that selectively a sufficiently high energy is achieved to remove even firmly adhering impurities. It is also important that the individual beams are directed in different directions on the workpiece, on the one hand to reach concave or hard to reach area of the workpiece and on the other hand, to facilitate the detachment of firmly adhering residues.
  • the individual beams slide over the workpiece like a spatula and clean it of the adhering residues.
  • cleaning medium primarily compressed air is provided, since this is easily available and inexpensive.
  • other cleaning media such as inert gases, such as nitrogen, when issues of explosion protection or prevention of corrosion are essential.
  • the process of the invention can be used particularly favorably if the pressure of the cleaning medium is between 0.5 bar and 10 bar, preferably between 0.9 bar and 8 bar.
  • Another particularly advantageous embodiment variant of the method according to the invention provides that the workpiece is moved relative to the cleaning chamber. In this way, it is possible to reliably subject all areas of the workpiece to cleaning, thereby reliably preventing material entrainment in the respective next processing step.
  • the workpiece is rotated inside the cleaning chamber.
  • relatively compact workpieces such as some cylinder heads or the like, it is possible in this way to cause a relative movement of the workpiece within a cleaning chamber, the dimensions of which are not substantially greater than that of the workpiece.
  • a first group of individual jets are directed in an angle against the direction of rotation a second group of individual jets in one direction in the direction of the axis of rotation and a third group of individual jets in the direction of rotation on the workpiece. It has been found that a particularly favorable cleaning effect can be achieved by such a design.
  • the individual beams may also be inclined at an angle relative to the normal plane to the axis of rotation in order to detect less accessible areas of the workpiece.
  • a translatory movement may also be provided. It is preferably provided that a first group of individual jets are directed at an angle to the direction of movement of a second group of individual beams perpendicular to the direction of movement and a third group of individual jets at an angle in the direction of movement of the workpiece.
  • the relative movement of the type described above by a movement of the workpiece relative to the cleaning chamber or against nozzles for generating the jets done or by a movement of the cleaning chamber or the nozzle relative to the workpiece.
  • blind holes or threaded holes particularly intensely by one or more nozzles inserted into this, moved in them, may be briefly stopped and moved out again.
  • a particular simplification of the method according to the invention is achieved in that the cleaning medium flows freely out of the cleaning chamber. In this way, can be dispensed with a suction or the like.
  • the present invention relates to a device for cleaning workpieces of adhering working media and / or work residues with a cleaning chamber and means for introducing a gaseous cleaning medium.
  • the means for introducing a gaseous cleaning medium are designed as nozzles, which are arranged in at least three groups, and that the nozzles of the at least three groups are directed at different angles on the workpiece.
  • a particularly cost-effective operation of the device is achieved when the nozzles are designed as compressed air nozzles.
  • the structural design of the device according to the invention is particularly advantageous when the nozzles of a group are arranged on at least one common manifold. This design allows a simple conversion of the device, if this is to be converted to a new type of workpieces to be cleaned. A further simplification of the conversion is achieved in that the nozzles are made adjustable.
  • a first preferred embodiment variant of the device according to the invention provides a device for producing a relative movement between the workpiece and the nozzles.
  • This relative movement can be rotational or translatory, as described above.
  • Various variants are possible for producing the relative movement. So on the one hand, the workpiece can be moved within the cleaning chamber. On the other hand, the workpiece may be fixedly mounted in the cleaning chamber, but the nozzles are moved over the workpiece. Finally, it is possible for the cleaning chamber to be designed so that it can be lowered onto a conveyor for conveying workpieces or in the form of a tunnel through which the workpieces pass.
  • grid structures are provided in the interior of the cleaning chamber in order to collect and dissipate fluidized spray and liquid parts.
  • the spray which is formed from the blown-off residues, precipitates on the workpiece and this contaminated again.
  • any liquid droplets blown away from the workpiece may bounce off the walls of the cleaning chamber and be thrown back onto the workpiece.
  • the occurrence of these effects may be the required treatment duration of the Increase workpiece undesirably and reduce the cleaning performance.
  • the above-described grids are provided to which the spray adheres and forms larger drops, so that the spray no longer returns to the workpiece. Furthermore, a rebound of wegspritzenden residue is reliably prevented in this way.
  • the device of FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 consists of a cleaning chamber 1 with a lid 1 a, in which a workpiece 2 is mounted. Laterally of the workpiece 2, three blower strips 3a, 3b, 3c designed as distributor tubes are provided, which are provided with a multiplicity of nozzles 4.
  • the workpiece 2 is held by seats 5 rotatably disposed in the cleaning chamber 1 and driven by a motor 6 to rotate the workpiece 2 about a horizontal axis 8 in the direction of the arrow 7.
  • a first group 4a of nozzles 4 which are directed against the direction of rotation 7 on the workpiece 3, is provided on the first distributor pipes 3a.
  • a second group 4b of nozzles 4 on second distributor pipes 3b is aligned in the direction of the axis 8.
  • a third group 4 c of nozzles 4 on distribution pipes 3 c is directed at an angle in the direction of rotation 7 on the workpiece 2. In this way, recesses, holes, undercut area or the like of the workpiece 2 are reliably cleaned
  • an outflow opening 9 is provided, through which the cleaning medium can flow together with the blown-off working medium.
  • Compressed air generator 11 supply via distribution lines 12, the individual manifolds 3a, 3b, 3c.
