面変動手段により容器内の洗浄液の液面が変動される。
その結果、超音波によるキャビテーションの発生部位が
変化してそのキャビテーションが被洗浄物に均一に当た
り、被洗浄物が洗浄される。With the object to be cleaned placed in the cleaning liquid, the liquid level changing means changes the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the container.
As a result, the site where cavitation is generated by ultrasonic waves changes, the cavitation uniformly hits the object to be cleaned, and the object to be cleaned is cleaned.
【００１３】従って、従来技術のように被洗浄物を揺動

従来技術と比較して装置全体の構成が簡単になり、コス
トがダウンする。Therefore, since it is not necessary to rock the object to be cleaned as in the prior art, the rocking mechanism becomes unnecessary,
Compared with the prior art, the structure of the entire device is simplified and the cost is reduced.
【００１４】上記第２の技術的手段は、以下のように作

物に均一に当たり、被洗浄物が洗浄される。When the first pump is operated while the object to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning liquid, the cleaning liquid in the container is pumped into the spare tank. At this time, the second pump is not operating.
As a result, the amount of cleaning liquid in the container is reduced and the liquid level is lowered. On the other hand, when the second pump is operated while the object to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning liquid, the cleaning liquid in the spare tank is pressure fed into the container. At this time, the first pump is not operating.
As a result, the amount of cleaning liquid in the container increases and the liquid level rises. In this way, the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the container is changed. Therefore, as described above, the portion where cavitation is generated by ultrasonic waves changes, the cavitation uniformly hits the object to be cleaned, and the object to be cleaned is cleaned.

浄される。When the object to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning liquid in the first cleaning tank, the pressurizing / depressurizing means pressurizes the sealed space between the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid in the second cleaning tank and the lid. The liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the second cleaning tank is lowered, which pushes the cleaning liquid in the first cleaning tank upward and raises the liquid level. On the other hand, when the object to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning liquid in the first cleaning tank, the pressurizing / depressurizing means reduces the pressure in the closed space between the liquid surface of the cleaning liquid in the second cleaning tank and the lid. The liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank rises, which pushes the cleaning liquid in the first cleaning tank downward and lowers the liquid level. In this way, the liquid level of the cleaning liquid in the container is changed. Therefore, as described above, the portion where cavitation is generated by ultrasonic waves changes, the cavitation uniformly hits the object to be cleaned, and the object to be cleaned is cleaned.

イド移動させて被洗浄物が洗浄される。First, the object to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning liquid near one side surface of the container. Thereafter, a negative pressure supply means supplies a negative pressure of equal pressure to each cleaning tank through each passage. Here, since the diameter of each of the passages is gradually increased toward the one side surface of the container, a large suction force is inclined toward each of the cleaning tanks toward the one side surface of the container. Added to As a result, the height of the liquid surface of each cleaning tank is gradually increased toward one side surface of the container. In this state, the object to be cleaned is slid toward the other side surface to clean the object to be cleaned.

外部に取り出される。First, the article to be cleaned 14 is placed on the dish 14, the article to be cleaned 14 is moved downward in the drawing by the air cylinder 35, and is immersed in the cleaning liquid 13. Thereafter, the negative pressure supply means 32 supplies a constant negative pressure to each cleaning tank 28 through each passage 29. Here, the passage 29 is the first passage 2
Since the diameter gradually increases from 9a toward the eighth passage 29h, the suction force in each washing tank 28 increases as it goes from the first washing tank 28a to the eighth washing tank 28h. Added to As a result, the height of the liquid surface of each cleaning tank 28 is from the first cleaning tank 28a to the eighth cleaning tank 28h.
Increasingly higher toward. In this state, the object to be cleaned 14 is cleaned by sliding the object to be cleaned 14 to the left in the drawing by the slide mechanism 33.
Thereafter, the washed object 14 is placed on the dish 39 and moved upward in the drawing by the air cylinder 36 to move the cleaning liquid 13
It is taken out.
