Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable processing technology, and in particular to a vegetable cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Vegetables refer to plants or fungi that can be cooked and eaten. Because they provide essential vitamins and minerals, vegetables have become an indispensable part of people's daily diet. Vegetables usually need to be washed during processing, thus requiring specialized washing equipment.
[0003] Existing vegetable washing devices generally involve placing vegetables inside the device and adding water to wash them. For example, in a vegetable washing device with existing patent publication number CN221430196U, weeds, rotten leaves, and other impurities float on the water surface during the washing process. In addition, the device lacks an integrated structure to remove these floating objects. As a result, these floating objects re-adhere to the vegetables during the process of taking them out or draining the washing water, thereby reducing the washing effect. Therefore, we provide a vegetable washing device. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problem in the aforementioned background technology that the difficulty in removing floating debris generated during washing reduces the effectiveness of vegetable cleaning, this utility model provides a vegetable cleaning device.
[0005] This utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: a vegetable washing device, including a washing tank and a floating object removal component, wherein a wire mesh frame is provided inside the washing tank.
[0006] The floating debris removal assembly includes a partition fixedly connected inside the cleaning tank. Four sets of vertical rods are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the mesh frame, and the vertical rods are slidably connected to the partition. A bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected below the partition. A motor is fixedly connected to the lower part of one side of the cleaning tank, and the end of the motor rotor is coaxially fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw. Movable plates are threaded to both sides of the bidirectional lead screw. The movable plates and the vertical rods are hinged to a connecting rod through a hinge. Two sets of filter screens are symmetrically rotatably connected inside the cleaning tank through a rotating shaft. Slag discharge ports are opened on both sides of the upper part of the cleaning tank, and a collection frame is fixedly connected to the outside of the slag discharge ports.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above solution, two sets of sliding rods are symmetrically fixedly connected to the surface of the filter screen, and the same sliding plate is slidably connected to the outside of the two sets of sliding rods. A cleaning brush plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate, and a counterweight plate is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above solution, two sets of guide rods are symmetrically fixedly connected below the partition, and the guide rods are slidably connected to the movable plate.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above solution, a sealing element is added to the sliding connection between the vertical rod and the partition.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above solution, a mesh cover is fixedly connected to the top of the mesh frame by a pin.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, the length of the cleaning brush plate is matched with the length of the filter screen.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, an inlet pipe and a drain pipe are fixedly connected to the upper and lower parts of one side of the cleaning tank, respectively, and valves are installed on both the inlet pipe and the drain pipe.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. When the washed vegetables are pushed to the upper part of the inner cavity of the washing box, the mesh frame will push the two sets of filter screens during the vertical movement. The rotation between the filter screens and the washing box will cause the downward-sloping filter screens to flip upward. As the mesh frame moves upward, the two sets of filter screens will be pushed to the horizontal and eventually tilted upward. During this process, the two sets of filter screens can pick up the floating objects on the water surface, thus avoiding the problem of reducing the washing effect of vegetables due to the difficulty in removing floating objects generated during washing.
[0015] 2. When the filter screen is pushed to an upward tilted state, the present invention utilizes the gravity of the counterweight plate and the sliding cooperation between the sliding plate and the sliding rod to make the sliding plate drive the cleaning brush plate to slide to the lowest point of the sliding rod, thereby automatically sweeping the floating objects on the filter screen to the slag discharge port, thus achieving the purpose of automatic slag discharge and further improving the practicality of the device.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0023] Example 1:
[0024] Please combine Figure 1-4 The vegetable washing device of this embodiment includes a washing tank 1, and a wire mesh frame 2 is provided inside the washing tank 1.
[0025] A floating debris removal assembly for automatic cleaning of floating debris includes a partition 101 fixedly connected inside a cleaning tank 1. Four sets of vertical rods 102 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of a mesh frame 2, and the vertical rods 102 are slidably connected to the partition 101. A bidirectional lead screw 103 is rotatably connected below the partition 101. A motor is fixedly connected to the lower side of one side of the cleaning tank 1, and the end of the motor rotor is coaxially fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 103. Moving plates 104 are threaded to the outer sides of both sides of the bidirectional lead screw 103. Connecting rods 105 are hinged between the moving plates 104 and the vertical rods 102 via hinges. Two sets of filter screens 106 are symmetrically rotatably connected inside the cleaning tank 1 via a rotating shaft. The filter screens 106 are wide. The size of the inner cavity of the cleaning tank 1 is half the size of the inner cavity. The upper two sides of the cleaning tank 1 are provided with slag discharge ports. The outside of the slag discharge ports is fixedly connected to a collection frame 107. Two sets of guide rods 108 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the partition plate 101, and the guide rods 108 are slidably connected to the moving plate 104, which can play a certain guiding role in the horizontal movement of the moving plate 104. A sealing element is added to the sliding connection between the vertical rod 102 and the partition plate 101 to prevent water from seeping down. The upper and lower parts of one side of the cleaning tank 1 are respectively fixedly connected to a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe. Valves are added to the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe to facilitate the addition of cleaning water into the cleaning tank 1 and the discharge of the used water inside the cleaning tank 1.
[0026] Two sets of sliding rods 201 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the surface of the filter screen 106. The same sliding plate 202 is slidably connected to the outside of the two sets of sliding rods 201. A cleaning brush plate 203 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 202, and a counterweight plate 204 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate 202. The length of the cleaning brush plate 203 matches the length of the filter screen 106, which can ensure the thorough cleaning of the filter screen 106.
[0027] The implementation principle of a vegetable washing device in this embodiment is as follows: First, the vegetables to be washed are placed in the mesh frame 2. Then, sufficient clean water is added into the washing tank 1 through the water inlet pipe. Subsequently, the motor is started, which drives the bidirectional lead screw 103 to rotate. Under the threaded connection between the bidirectional lead screw 103 and the moving plate 104, and the sliding connection between the moving plate 104 and the guide rod 108, the two sets of moving plates 104 can be driven to move in opposite directions. Under the hinged connection between the moving plate 104, the vertical rod 102, and the connecting rod 105, the mesh frame 2 can be driven to move vertically downward and immerse in the water to soak and wash the vegetables. Weeds, rotten leaves, and other impurities attached to the vegetables will automatically float to the surface. Then, the motor is started in reverse. When the washed vegetables are pushed to the upper part of the inner cavity of the washing tank 1, the mesh frame 2 will push the two sets of filter screens 106 during the vertical movement. Utilizing the rotational connection between the filter screens 106 and the washing tank 1, the downward-sloping filter screens 106 will... As the mesh frame 2 moves upward, the two sets of filter screens 106 are pushed to a horizontal position and eventually tilted upward. During this process, the two sets of filter screens 106 can remove floating objects on the water surface, thus avoiding the problem of reduced cleaning effect on vegetables due to the difficulty in removing floating objects generated during washing. At the same time, when the filter screen 106 is pushed to the tilted upward position, the sliding action between the sliding plate 202 and the sliding rod 201, under the action of gravity on the counterweight plate 204, causes the sliding plate 202 to drive the cleaning brush plate 203 to slide towards the lowest point of the sliding rod 201, thereby automatically sweeping the floating objects on the filter screen 106 towards the slag discharge port, thus achieving the purpose of automatic slag discharge. The set collection box 107 can collect the swept floating objects. Then, the washed vegetables can be taken out. Finally, the above operation is repeated to continue washing the vegetables. When the mesh frame 2 descends into the water again, the cleaning brush plate 203 will automatically reset.
[0028] Example 2:
[0029] Based on Example 1, this embodiment is further improved in that: the top of the mesh frame 2 is fixedly connected to the mesh cover 3 by a pin. The mesh cover 3 can prevent vegetables from floating, and the pin facilitates quick assembly and disassembly of the mesh cover 3.
[0030] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
