Device and method for a rust-resistant cleaning process for a Continuous
Variable Transmission belt
The present invention relates to a device for a rust-resistant cleaning process and a method for a rust-resistant cleaning process for use with a continuously variable transmission belt (hereinafter referred to as "CVT4 belt"). ™
Figures 4A and 4B are schematic representations of a prior art CVT band. As shown in these views, a CVT band 1 is constructed by assembling two laminated bands 2 containing a plurality of metal rings 2a (e.g., a stack of about 12 endless layers) that. are supported by the thin trapezoidal layered elements 3 which are composed of a large number of metal elements 3a (for example approximately 400 consecutive steel elements).
Each of the metal elemental 3a consists of a small piece of metal that is punched from a metal plate and formed into a specified shape. For example, the specified shape is similar to the physical shape of the upper half of the appearance of a human body. In particular, a metal element 3a resembles a molded shape with a main part 3b and a breast part 3c, as well as a neck part 3d which forms the connection between the main part 3b and the breast part 3c. Moreover, on a surface side (front surface as shown in Fig. 4b) of the main part 3b a protrusion 3e (raised circular bulge) is formed and a recess 3f (circular indentation) is formed at the same position on the opposite surface side (rear surface in the drawing). Alignment of the metal elements 3a is achieved by successively inserting the protrusion 3e into the recess 3f of adjacent metal elements 3a.
Two laminated bands 2 are inserted into the indented parts 3g (band grooves) formed between the main part 3b and the breast part 3c of the metal elements 3a, respectively. When the space (the free width of the indented parts 3g) between the main part 3b and the breast part 3c is hereby defined as "L" (see Fig. 4B), the number of stacked layers for the laminated bands 2 is chosen such that the laminate thickness "D" for each of the laminated bands 2 (see Fig. 4A) is substantially the same or slightly smaller than "L".
After assembling a CVT belt 1 as described above, when manufacturing a push-type metal V-belt, each CVT belt 1 is immersed in lubricating oil (transmission fluid). As a result, there is no need to worry about the occurrence of rust
Apart from that, a CVT band 1 is not installed immediately after manufacture in a continuously variable transmission with V-band, but is installed after a (considerable time). Also, because the required number of CVT bands 1 is usually pre-stored, rust will form on every part of the CVT belt during this period, therefore the anticorrosion treatment of the CVT belt 1 is essential, for example immersing a composite CVT belt 1 in an oil tank and moving the tire in the oil tank to prevent rust from occurring until it is mounted in a continuously variable V-belt transmission
However, for obtaining a sufficient rust-resistant effect on a CVT belt 1 by immersing a composite CVT belt 1 in an oil tank and moving the belt in the oil tank, the problem arises that this procedure requires a considerable period of time
Basically, the laminated bands 2 are an integral part of a CVT band 1, each comprising a stacked layer of a plurality of metal rings 2a (e.g., 12 endless layers) in a laminated state. Furthermore, the layered elements form a second integral part comprising a plurality of metal elements 3a (e.g., 400 elements) in an aligned state. Therefore, anti-corrosion oil cannot easily penetrate between the contiguous surfaces between the laminated bands 2 and the layered elements 3.
Furthermore, when assembling a CVT belt 11, chlorides such as sweat (perspiration), etc. can adhere to the surface of the structure with metal rings 3a of the two laminated bands 2 or the structure with metal elements 3a of the layered elements 3 As mentioned above, anticorrosive oil cannot easily penetrate between these contiguous surfaces and it is not a simple task to flush out such chlorides with anticorrosive oil. With regard to this matter (chloride residue), these parts must be immersed in an oil tank for a considerable time and moved into the oil tank.
For these reasons, the present invention has been made in light of the above circumstances. Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide a device for a rust-resistant cleaning process and a method for a rust-resistant cleaning process for use with a continuously variable transmission belt (CVT belt), which allows anti-corrosion oil over the contiguous surfaces of a CVT -protecting band to obtain a sufficient rust-resistant effect, and with which chlorides, such as sweat, etc., which are adhered to these contiguous surfaces can easily be washed away.
The device for a rust-resistant cleaning process for a CVT belt according to the present invention comprises an oil tank filled with rust-resistant cleaning oil that is suitable for rust-resistant cleaning of a CVT belt and an ultrasonic excitation module for performing ultrasonic excitation of the rust-resistant cleaning oil.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the device for a rust-resistant cleaning process for a CVT belt provides an elastic material between the oil tank and the mounting surfaces of the oil tank.
In addition, the method for a rust-resistant cleaning process for a CVT belt according to the present invention comprises the steps of filling an oil tank with rust-resistant cleaning oil for rust-resistant cleaning of a CVT belt and immersing the CVT belt in the rust-resistant cleaning oil while ultrasonic excitation of the rust-resistant cleaning oil is carried out.
According to the present invention, ultrasonic excitation of the rust-resistant cleaning oil is used for rust-resistant cleaning of a CVT belt. In this way, the impulse force of the cavitation penetrates into the rust-resistant cleaning oil that is generated after that excitation not only the surface of a CVT belt, but also every part of the connecting surfaces. This allows this procedure to be carried out without thorough cleaning and rust protection of all parts of the contiguous surfaces, and it is able to easily remove chlorides, such as sweat, etc. through that impulsive force
Furthermore, by providing an elastic material between the oil tank and the mounting surface of the oil tank, the excitation force of the ultrasonic excitation module is isolated by an elastic material and transferred to the mounting surface of the oil tank. As a result, the loss of ultrasonic excitation energy can be canceled out.
The above and further objects and novel features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying figures. It will be understood, however, that the figures are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended as an i.

Furthermore, an explanation is omitted describing details of well-known methods, well-known procedures, well-known architecture, well-known circuit configurations, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "general knowledge") to obtain a brief explanation, but this includes this general knowledge are wholly or partly, not intentionally from. Therefore, relevant general knowledge that is already known to those skilled in the art at the time of filing the present invention is automatically included in the following description.
Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the device for a rust-resistant cleaning process for a CVT belt according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
As can be seen in the figure, a device for a rust-resistant cleaning process for a CVT belt comprises an oil tank 12 which is completely filled with rust-resistant cleaning oil 11 (e.g. transmission oil for a CVT belt) which is suitable for rust-resistant cleaning of a CVT belt. band 1; an ultrasonic excitation module 13 for performing ultrasonic excitation of a wall surface of the oil tank 12 (in Fig. 1 the bottom bottom wall surface and one side wall surface is acceptable); and an elastic material 15, such as rubber material, a spring material, etc., formed between the oil tank 12 and the mounting surface 14 (base surface, etc.), so that the sound pressure energy P in the ultrasonic excitation module 13 does not propagate
Figure 2A is a schematic representation of the configuration of the ultrasonic excitation module 13. In Figure 2A, the configuration of the ultrasonic excitation module 12 has a plurality of ultrasonic transducers 16 that are matrix-mounted to the wall surface of the oil tank 12; and a vibration generator 17 for driving the ultrasonic transducers.
Each of the ultrasonic transducers 16 can be designed, for example, as a Langevin type structure (Paul Langevin) which is mechanically combined with an electrostriction element (PZT (lead-zirconium titanate): also known as piezoelectric crystals or piezoelectric device).
In the case of a Langevin type ultrasonic transducers 16, each of the ultrasonic transducers 16 comprises three electrodes (hereinafter referred to as a 1st electrode 18, a 2nd electrode 19 and a 3rd electrode 20), two toric (circular) electrostriction elements ( hereinafter referred to as a 1 * electrostriction element 21 and a 2nd electrostriction element 22) consisting of a ceramic material, for example lead-zirconium titanate (PbZrC> 3, PbTiOs), etc. and a metal block 23. Each of these parts forms a stacked layer in a predetermined order (consecutive order of the 1st electrode 18, the electrostriction element 21.2th electrode 19.2th electrostriction element 22.3nd electrode 20 and the metal block 23). The layered transducer is sequentially formed with a bolt 25 inserted into holes 12a drilled in a matrix form into the wall surface of the oil tank 12, via a gasket 24 for preventing fluid leakage, which is joined by connecting it with a required torque tightening of a nut 26 mounted on a wall surface of the oil tank 12. ~
The 18 electrode 18 of all ultrasonic transducers 16 is connected to the vibration generator 17 via common signal lines 28,29. The 2nd electrode 19 and the 3C electrode 20 of each of the ultrasonic transducers 16 are connected to the vibration generator 17 via individual signal lines 30 * 35, respectively.
In such a configuration, the vibration generator 17, for example, generates a driving voltage with a repetition frequency of about several tens of kHz (10 kHz to 100 kHz). When this driving voltage is applied between the individual wiring 30-35 and the common wiring 28,29, the 1 * electrostriction element 21 and the 2nd electrostriction element 22 of each of the ultrasonic transducers 16 with the appropriate frequency pulses through the ptezoelectric effect as seen in Figure 2B (The physical dimension phenomenon that occurs when applying an electric field to a piezoelectric crystal, namely the positive and negative ion charge centers moving from uniformly distributed positions. This effect, also known as reverse piezoelectricity, generating elastic changes and displacing deformations). This pulsation (vibration) is transmitted to the rust-resistant cleaning oil 11 via the wall surfaces of the oil tank 12, and finally the generated cavity spreads the sound pressure energy P in the rust-resistant cleaning oil 11.
When a composite CVT band 1 as shown in Fig. 1 is immersed in the rust-resistant cleaning oil 11 while generating such cavitation, this CVT band 1 will be bombarded by the impulsive force of the cavitation that transmits the sound pressure energy P due to the fact that that the surface of the CVT belt 1 is cleaned and made rust-resistant with the rust-resistant cleaning oil 11, the above-mentioned impulse force also simply penetrates between the contiguous surfaces of each part of the CVT belt 1, the CVT belt 1 only has to be submerged and moved in the oil tank.
Also, as previously described with regard to the connecting surfaces in the prior art which require a considerable time to achieve a cleaning effect and an anti-rust effect, the present invention can achieve an excellent cleaning effect and an anti-rust effect in a considerably shorter time.
Figures 3A-3C are schematic representations of the cleaning and anticorrosive effect at the contiguous surfaces in each part of the CVT band 1..
As seen in these figures, the contiguous surfaces in each part of the CVT band 1 are in the following three locations. As shown in Fig. 3A, the 1st connecting surfaces are the contact surfaces of the metal elements 3a and the laminated bands 2. As indicated in Fig. 3B, the 2nd connecting surfaces are the corresponding contact surfaces of the configuration of each of the metal rings 2a of the laminated bands 2. As indicated in FIg.3C, the 3rd contiguous surfaces are the contact surfaces of the configuration of each of the metal elements 3a of the layered elements 3.
Since all of these contact surfaces are contiguous, according to the prior art embodiment, where the CVT belt 1 is only immersed in the oil tank and only moved in the oil tank, the liquid will not simply penetrate, and a long time required to obtain the desired cleaning effect and anti-rust effect In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, because the generated cavitation spreads the sound pressure energy P in the anti-rust cleaning oil, even when the component parts comprise such connecting surfaces, the anti-rust cleaning oil 11 can be simply penetrate in a short time.
Moreover, even in cases where chlorides, such as sweat etc. (see Fig. 3B, 3C fingerprint and 36.37 respectively) attached to any part of the CVT band 1, these human secretions can be easily removed by the impulsive force of the cavitation. As a result, a more effective rust-resistant treatment is also obtained by removing these chlorides.
In the above-mentioned preferred embodiment, although an ultrasonic transducer 16 of the Langevin type is used, the present invention is not limited thereto. The present invention may, for example, use an ultrasonic transducer of the resonance block type, the immersion type and other embodiments. . In addition, the mounting position of the ultrasonic transducers 16 is not limited to the wall surfaces of the oil tank 12. The mounting location need only be at a position where cavitation can be generated from the required sound pressure energy in the rust-resistant cleaning oil 11 with which the interior of the oil tank is 12 stuffed.
Although the present invention has been described with regard to the preferred embodiments, it is intended that the invention is not limited by any detail of the description, but that it encompasses all embodiments that fall within the scope of the appended claims.
