2. Description of the Related Art Recently, in the drawing process in the production of a wire, the demand for surface cleanliness of the drawn wire has become extremely high, and the importance of cleaning has been increasing. It is increasing. By the way, conventionally, the surface cleaning of the drawn wire has been performed by cleaning while spraying a cleaning liquid onto a running wire through a required nozzle.

However, in such a conventional example, the injection pressure varies depending on the positional relationship of the nozzle with respect to the running wire, and the cleaning cannot be performed with a uniform injection pressure over the entire outer peripheral surface of the wire. A reliable cleaning effect could not be expected.

[0004] The present invention solves the problems of the prior art at a glance, and allows the cleaning liquid to be sprayed at a uniform spray pressure over the entire circumference of the traveling wire, thereby always cleaning and cleaning the wire reliably. An object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for cleaning a wire.

[0005]

That is, according to the present invention, an annular cleaning liquid chamber 6 is formed concentrically around at least one outer periphery of at least one end of a substantially cylindrical main body 2 into which a wire P can be inserted. A high-pressure washing liquid supply port 11 is formed on the top wall, and an annular nozzle 7 is formed concentrically on the bottom wall so as to communicate with the entire circumference of the cylindrical body 2. The gist of the present invention is as follows.

The wire cleaning apparatus according to the present invention allows the wire P to pass through the cylindrical main body 2 while running.
The high-pressure cleaning liquid is sprayed from the annular cleaning liquid chamber 6 through the annular nozzle 7 inward from the entire circumference of the tubular main body 2 at a uniform injection pressure, and the entire outer circumference of the traveling wire P is evenly cleaned and reliably cleaned. It can be done.

[0008] Reference numeral 11 denotes a liquid supply port formed on the outer peripheral wall of the outer member 9 for supplying liquid to the cleaning liquid chamber 6 through a required high-pressure liquid sending means. Reference numeral 12 denotes an outer member 9 for communicating with the cylindrical main body 2. An insertion hole for a wire formed in the center of the bottom wall 10, a zero ring 13 interposed between the cylindrical main body 2 and the partition member 8, and a non-interrupted ring 14 interposed between the partition member 8 and the outer member 9. 0 ring,
Reference numeral 15 denotes a fixing bolt for fixing the partition member 8 to the cylindrical body 2 via the mounting flange 4, and reference numeral 16 denotes a partition member 8 via the mounting flange 4 to adjust the width of the cleaning liquid chamber 6.
Reference numeral 17 denotes a fixing bolt which is in contact with the base end face, and a fixing bolt 17 for fixing the outer member 9 to the partition member 8 via the mounting flange 18 thereof. 19 is a bolt 2 attached to the outer surface of the bottom wall 10 of the outer member 9 so that the tip of the cylindrical main body 2 is located on the side.
And a substantially rectangular box-shaped liquid collecting chamber 21 attached through the center of the cylindrical main body 2, and an insertion hole for a wire having a required diameter formed in the outer wall of the liquid collecting chamber 19 so as to be located on the center line of the cylindrical main body 2. Is the collection chamber 19
A drain port 23 formed on the bottom wall of the frame 1 is for discharging the cleaning waste liquid discharged from the drain port 22 to the outside.
A drain pipe 24 attached to the frame 1 is a shatterproof shutter with an insertion hole 25 provided in the front and rear portions of the frame 1 respectively, and 26 is a frame for covering the shatterproof shutter 24 and the like. A cover standing upright on the room 1

A higher-pressure cleaning liquid is sequentially supplied into the cleaning liquid chamber 6. Then, the high-pressure cleaning liquid supplied to the cleaning liquid chamber 6 is sequentially supplied to the nozzles 7.
And is sprayed into the cylindrical main body 2 to clean the traveling wire P to remove the deposits such as lubricating oil and metal soap adhering to the outer surface thereof. At this time, since the nozzle 7 is formed in a ring shape over the entire circumference of the cylindrical main body 2 together with the cleaning liquid chamber 6, the cleaning liquid is injected through the nozzle 7 inward from the entire circumference of the cylindrical main body 2 with a uniform injection pressure. Therefore, the entire outer periphery of the traveling wire P can be always uniformly cleaned and cleaned. The cleaned wire P is sequentially discharged to the outside through the rear insertion hole 27 of the cover body 26, and the cleaning waste liquid is collected in the collection chamber 19, and then discharged to the drain port 22.
Through the drainage pipe 23 to the outside.

Similarly, the wire P drawn into the cylindrical body 2 is caused to travel while being inserted into the cylindrical body 2, and the high-pressure cleaning liquid is uniformly distributed from the cleaning liquid chamber 6 to the inside of the entire circumference of the cylindrical body 2 via the nozzle 7. The entire outer periphery of the wire P is cleaned and cleaned by injecting at the injection pressure.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the cleaning liquid chamber 6 and the nozzle 7 are formed only at the tip of the cylindrical main body 2. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Alternatively, it may be formed only at the base end. Further, the cleaning liquid chamber 6 and the nozzle 7 are configured by assembling the cylindrical body 2, the partition wall member 8, and the outer shell member 9. The cleaning liquid chamber 6 and the nozzle 7 are formed separately and attached to the cylindrical main body 2. It may be configured as desired.
