PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a glass tube cleaning device which has such a simple constitution that the inside of the glass tube just after cut can be cleaned without requiring an exclusive power source and to provide a glass tube cleaning/cutting device.SOLUTION: The glass tube cleaning device for cleaning the inside of the glass tube G1, which is conveyed by a conveyor 400 in a parallel state to the direction perpendicular to the axis of the glass tube and has predetermined length, includes: partition means 31 for partitioning the glass tubes G1 at predetermined intervals in a conveying direction one by one; air injection means 32 for blowing clean air into an opening on one end side of each glass tube G1 partitioned by the partition means 31; and impact means 33 for making an impact on the outer peripheral surface of the glass tube G1, into which clean air A2 is blown by the air injection means 32, by tapping. The impact means 33 comprises an elastic member 331, the base end of which is fixed to a device frame Fr, and a tapping member 332 arranged on the tip side of the elastic member 331. The glass tube cleaning device is disposed just behind the glass tube cleaning/cutting device at a place where the continuous glass tube is cut by predetermined length. |
