It is constructed so that net containers filled with objects are immersed and moved one after another.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a side view of the washing/drying device, and FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the same device. Four immersion tanks 2, 3, 4, 5 are arranged in parallel on the base 1, and these immersion tanks 2, 3, 4, 5 are, for example, an ultrasonic cleaning tank equipped with an ultrasonic generator, a heating tank, etc. It consists of a hot liquid tank containing a cleaning solution, a hot water tank containing hot water, and a drying tank that blows dry air. Here, the items to be washed and dried, such as mechanical parts, are placed in a mesh container 6 having a rod-shaped support member 7 at the top, as shown in FIG. 6, and this support member 7 will be described later. It has a shape that protrudes to both sides so as to be suspended and supported by both sides of each dipping tank and the transverse frame 11. At the front and rear of the base 1, two hydraulic cylinders 8 and 9 forming an elevating drive mechanism are disposed vertically upward, and a rectangular elevating frame 10 is horizontally connected and supported on the tip of the piston rod. This elevating frame 10 is arranged so as to surround the immersion tanks 2 to 5 with the fluid pressure cylinders 8 and 9 lowering their piston rods, and to have its long sides facing the sides of each of the immersion tanks 2 to 5. Ru.
In addition to the hydraulic cylinder, a mechanism using a motor and a rack pinion, a mechanism using a motor and a screw shaft, etc. can also be used as the lifting mechanism.

On the other hand, a transverse frame 11 having a substantially same rectangular shape as the elevator frame 10 is placed on the elevator frame 10 so as to be horizontally movable on the elevator frame 10 in its longitudinal direction (horizontal direction in FIG. 1).
A rolling wheel 12 is provided at the bottom of the traversing frame 11 to ensure smooth movement of the traversing frame 11, but rollers or rollers may be provided on the elevating frame 10. Furthermore, a guide plate or a guide groove may be provided on the lifting frame 10 so that the traversing frame 11 can horizontally move on the lifting frame 10 along its longitudinal direction without coming off. Notch-shaped support portions 13 are formed at predetermined positions on both sides of the transverse frame 11 with a width approximately equal to that of the dipping tanks 2 to 5, and when the elevating frame 10 is raised, the support members 7 of the net container 6 are This structure is supported by a support part 13. Note that the support portion can also be provided in a projecting shape. A vertical groove 14 for inserting the support member 7 of the net container 6 is formed in the center upper part of both sides of each of the immersion tanks 2 to 5, and a lifting frame 10 is formed as shown in FIG.
is lowered and the transverse frame 11 is at the starting position on the left side in the figure, the support portions 13 of the transverse frame 11 are arranged to be located directly below the vertical grooves 14 provided in each of the immersion tanks 2 to 5. . A hydraulic cylinder 15 is used as a horizontal drive mechanism for horizontally driving the transverse frame 11, and the hydraulic cylinder 15 has its base pivoted on a vertical fixed part, and its piston rod is connected to the transverse frame 11.
It is arranged so that it is connected to the left end of. This fluid pressure cylinder 15 can also be a device using a motor, a rack pinion, a screw shaft, etc., as described above. Further, the lifting frame 10 is raised and lowered by the two fluid pressure cylinders 8 and 9, and in order to ensure that the lifting frame 10 is raised and lowered in a horizontal state, parallel movement devices using rack pinions are provided on both sides of the lifting frame 10. It is also possible.

Next, to explain the operation of the washing/drying apparatus having the above-mentioned structure, the net container 6 containing the washing items is first placed on the support part 13 at the left end of the transverse frame 11, as shown in FIG.
It is set by placing the supporting members 7 on both sides (on both sides). When the apparatus is started, first, the hydraulic cylinders 8 and 9 are operated to raise the elevator frame 10 to the uppermost position as shown in FIG. As a result, the transverse frame 11 placed on the elevating frame 10 also rises, and the net container 6 held on the transverse frame 11 is moved to the dipping tank 2.
Can be lifted higher than ~5. Next, the fluid pressure cylinder 15 performs a pushing operation, whereby the traversing frame 11 is horizontally moved to the right by approximately the width of the immersion tank on the lifting frame 10 in the raised position, as shown in FIG. do. At this time, the net container 6 placed on the left end of the transverse frame 11 reaches directly above the first dipping tank 2, and
Subsequently, as shown in FIG.
When the operator performs a pullback operation, the elevating frame 10 and the transverse frame 11 descend as they are, the support member 7 enters the vertical groove 14 and is supported, and the net container 6 is immersed in the dipping tank 2. Next, when the lifting frame 10 is lowered to the lowest position and the support part 13 of the transverse frame 11 and the support member 7 of the net container 6 are completely disengaged, the fluid pressure cylinder 1
5 performs a retracting operation, and the transverse frame 11 returns to its initial position as shown in FIG. And immersion tank 2
When the washing in the net container 6 that has been immersed in the water has been washed in this tank, a new net container 6 is then placed on the left end of the transverse frame 11 in the same manner as above, and the same operation as above is performed. As a result, the net container 6 that was immersed in the leftmost dipping tank 2 is transferred to the next dipping tank 3.
The net containers 6 newly brought in are immersed in the first dipping tank 2, and the items to be washed in each net container 6 are immersed and cleaned.

In this way, by repeating the lifting and lowering of the elevating frame 10, the horizontal reciprocating movement of the transverse frame 11, and the loading of new net containers 6, all the supports of the transverse frame 11 are removed, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. The net container 6 is now supported by the portion 13, and the net container 6, which has been put into the immersion tank 5 for final drying and has been dried, is then taken out to the right side of the immersion tank 5 as shown in FIG. At this point, the net container 6 that has been washed and dried is removed from the apparatus and carried out. Thereafter, by repeating the same operation, new mesh containers 6 are sequentially immersed in the immersion baths 2 to 5, and the cleaning items in the mesh containers are continuously washed and dried.

FIGS. 7 and 8 show another embodiment, in which the mesh container is rotated at a low speed in each dipping tank. For this purpose, the mesh container 26
As shown in FIG. 7, the net container 26 is formed into a box shape that can be closed, and rod-shaped support members 27 protrude from the center of both sides of the net container 26, and a gear 28 is attached to a part of the support member 27.
is pivoted. On the other hand, each immersion tank 22, 23 has a pair of gears 24 on one side, as shown in FIG.
25 are pivotally supported in parallel, and these gears 24, 25
When the support member 27 of the net container 26 is inserted into the longitudinal groove of each immersion tank 22, 23, the gear 28 which is pivotally attached to the support member 27 is received and engaged between the gears 24 and 25. be done. And one gear 25
It has a structure in which it is rotated at low speed by a drive device 29 attached at the bottom via a chain or the like. The configurations of other members such as the transverse frame 11 and the elevating frame 10 are the same as those in the above embodiment, and therefore their explanations will be omitted. In this embodiment, similarly to the above, the net container 26 is sequentially immersed in each dipping tank by the vertical movement of the elevating frame 10 and the horizontal reciprocating movement of the traversing frame 11. During the immersion, the drive device 29 is activated. However, since the mesh container 26 rotates around the support member 27 via the gears 25 and 28, the cleaning items inside the mesh container 26, that is, the soaking baths 22 and 23, are well stirred, and the cleaning and drying effects are improved. will improve.

<Effects of the Invention> As explained above, according to the washing and drying apparatus of the present invention, a support member is provided on the net container in which the washed items are placed, and the net container is supported at a fixed position on the traversing frame. Because the net container is moved horizontally back and forth on the lifting frame, and the lifting frame is raised and lowered to immerse the net container in each dipping tank in sequence, the net container does not shift its position or bend its direction during transportation. The net container can be sent to each dipping tank in a stable state at all times, and efficient dipping cleaning and drying can be performed with a device of relatively simple structure.
