Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sweet potato cleaning, in particular to a cleaning machine for sweet potato processing. Background Art
[0002] A cleaning machine is a mechanical device used to clean various objects or surfaces. It uses high-pressure water flow, chemical solvents, steam, ultrasound or other physical or chemical means to effectively remove dirt, grease, rust, dust, etc. on the surface of objects to achieve the purpose of cleaning, disinfection or sterilization. The application range of cleaning machines is very wide, including but not limited to industrial manufacturing, food processing, medical care, automobile maintenance, household cleaning and other fields. Cleaning machines play an important role in improving work efficiency, ensuring product quality, and extending equipment life. It is one of the indispensable equipment in modern industrial production and daily life. During the food processing operation of sweet potatoes, a cleaning machine is needed to remove dirt from the surface of the sweet potatoes. After the sweet potatoes are dug out of the ground, a large amount of soil, sand and other impurities will adhere to the surface. If these dirt are not thoroughly cleaned, it will directly affect the quality and taste of subsequent processed products. For example, when making sweet potato starch, if there is mud and sand on the surface of the sweet potato, the produced starch will also contain mud and sand, affecting the purity and taste of the starch. The cleaning process can also remove non-potato impurities such as gravel, ironware, mud and vine stems and leaves contained in the sweet potatoes.
[0003] Sweet potatoes grow in the soil, and there is a lot of mud and sand remaining on their surface. Although manual cleaning is relatively clean, it is labor-intensive. Mud and sand are likely to remain in the gaps and other places of the sweet potatoes, affecting later processing. The cleaning machine cannot thoroughly clean the dirt and residue on the surface of the sweet potatoes when in use, which may affect the quality of the product and reduce the appearance and performance of the product. The cleaning machine without a water circulation and filtration system cannot recycle water resources during the cleaning process and needs to frequently replace the cleaning water, resulting in a waste of water resources.
