摘要： This relates to an inexpensive blast wheel for applying abrasive particles to work pieces to be cleaned. The blast wheel provides a simple arrangement for supporting vanes in the form of a hub having a bowl shaped portion in which bases of vanes are seated with the bases being clamped in place by a plate portion of an impeller. Each vane includes a wide base connected to the vane by way of a spacer. The impeller plate has a notch for each vane with the notch receiving the spacer and overlying the base. The bowl portion of the hub includes a peripheral flange which engages an outer end of the vane base to restrain it against radial outwardly directed movement. The vanes may be changed by providing the hub flange with a notch through which a vane base may pass. By loosening the impeller plate relative to the hub, and aligning each vane in sequence with respect to the notch, the vane may be slid through the notch and removed from the hub. With smaller vanes, the vanes may be assembled with the impeller and clamped in place by a hose clamp and then the entire impeller and vane arrangement assembled with the hub. There is also an impeller case which is positioned between the impeller member of the impeller and the vanes to control the path of abrasive particles. The case is rotatable relative to a guard housing for varying the path along which the abrasive particles are thrown.

摘要翻译： 这涉及将磨料颗粒施加到待清洁的工件上的便宜的鼓轮。 喷砂轮提供了一种简单的布置，用于支撑具有碗状部分的毂的形式的叶片，其中叶片的基部被安置，其中底座被叶轮的板部分夹紧就位。 每个叶片包括通过间隔件连接到叶片的宽底座。 叶轮板具有用于每个叶片的凹口，凹口接收间隔件并且覆盖基部。 轮毂的碗部分包括周边凸缘，其接合叶片底座的外端以限制其抵抗径向向外的运动。 可以通过为轮毂凸缘提供叶片底座可以通过的凹口来改变叶片。 通过相对于轮毂松开叶轮板，并且相对于切口依次对准每个叶片，叶片可以滑动通过凹口并从轮毂移除。 对于较小的叶片，叶片可以与叶轮组装并通过软管夹夹紧就位，然后将整个叶轮和叶片装置与轮毂组装在一起。 还有一个叶轮壳体，其位于叶轮的叶轮构件和叶片之间以控制磨料颗粒的路径。 该壳体可相对于防护壳体旋转，以改变磨料颗粒抛出的路径。

摘要： A method and apparatus for cleaning a succession of workpieces such as automobile engine blocks includes a first cleaning mechanism wherein cleaning media such as steel shot is directed against the workpieces. After being discharged from the first cleaning mechanism, the workpieces are inverted and passed through a second cleaning mechanism where cleaning media again is directed against the workpieces. In the second cleaning mechanism, the workpieces are separated so that the ends of the workpieces can be cleaned. The invention includes turning mechanisms for inverting the workpieces one-by-one, as well as devices for controlling the movement of the workpieces through the different cleaning and turning mechanisms.
