BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a parts cleaning device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, cleaning of small parts manufactured by pressing or machining has been carried out by putting the parts in a barrel having a hexagonal cross section and rotating the parts in a cleaning tank.

[0003]

However, in the conventional method of cleaning parts by placing them in the barrel, the parts must be loaded into the barrel by removing the barrel from the cleaning layer and removing the lid. In addition, the same labor is required to take out the parts after cleaning, which is not preferable in terms of work efficiency. Furthermore, since the barrel rotation is in one direction,
In addition to poor cleaning efficiency, there is a problem that thin parts are entangled with each other.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the parts cleaning apparatus, and saves the labor of loading and unloading the parts into and from the cleaning layer, and has good cleaning efficiency, and An object of the present invention is to provide a parts cleaning device in which parts are not entangled with each other.

[0005]

The inventor first conceived of placing parts in a particular basket for cleaning. Also,
In order to prevent the entanglement of parts and improve the cleaning efficiency, it was newly found that it is extremely effective to give forward and reverse rotation at the same time as rocking, and completed the present invention.

The component cleaning apparatus of the present invention includes a cleaning tank, a rotating frame rotatably suspended in the cleaning tank, and a component basket mounted on the rotating frame so as to be horizontally rotatable. And a rotating device attached to the rotating frame for rotating the rotating frame in the forward and reverse directions, and a rotating device for rotating the rotating frame right and left by a predetermined angle.

[0007]

In order to wash the parts, first, the basket in which the parts are loaded is placed on the rotary table attached to the rotating frame. Therefore, the supply of parts to the cleaning device is extremely easy.

Next, since the rotating device fixed to the rotating frame rotates the rotating base forward and reverse, the basket repeats forward and reverse accordingly. Further, at the same time, since the rotating device rotates the rotating frame right and left by a certain angle, the basket repeats the normal rotation and the reverse rotation in the cleaning layer. Therefore, the parts are kept in the basket and efficiently cleaned, and the parts do not get entangled with each other. Also, if necessary, use a turning device
If you stop the tilting frame while tilting it by the desired angle,
The basket rotates forward and backward in a tilted state in the cleaning layer.
The stored parts can be
The shape of the parts to be cleaned as they are cleaned while rolling inside
Effective cleaning can be performed according to the above.

When the cleaning of the parts is completed, the basket containing the parts is taken out from the turntable. Therefore, the parts can be immediately taken out from the washing tank, and the taken out parts can be immediately transferred to the next hot water washing device or drying device while being put in the basket.

Although the present invention has been described as a cleaning apparatus, the apparatus of the present invention is not limited to a cleaning apparatus, but may be used as a degreasing apparatus in the degreasing step before the cleaning, or a hot water washing apparatus after the cleaning step. It can also be used as a drying device. When used as a degreasing device, the water tank is filled with a degreasing agent, and when used as a hot water washing device, the water tank is filled with hot water, but when used as a drying device, the water tank is empty. The lid is put on and hot air is blown in.

Further, the apparatus of the present invention can be used as a parts cleaning line by arranging, for example, a degreasing device, a cleaning device, a hot water cleaning device and a drying device in this order. In this case, since the parts move while they are still in the basket, by arranging the baskets containing the parts in each process and feeding the baskets in sequence, it is possible to operate the parts cleaning line with extremely high efficiency.
