It can be understood that the specific implementation cases described herein are only used to explain the present invention rather than to limit the invention. It should also be noted that for ease of description, only the parts related to the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0028] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the features in the implementation cases and embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0029] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a modular automatic vegetable washing and cutting device includes a shell 1, a conveying device 2, a sewage discharge device 3, a vegetable washing device 4 and a vegetable cutting device 5.

[0030] A vegetable inlet 101 is provided on one side of the top of the shell 1, and a water tank 406 is provided on the other side. A conveying device 2 is provided inside the shell 1 below the vegetable inlet 101, a vegetable washing device 4 is provided above the conveying device 2, a vegetable cutting device 5 is provided at the end of the conveying device 2, a placing plate 503 is provided on the inside of the shell 1 at the end of the vegetable cutting device 5, and a sewage discharge device 3 is provided at the lower position inside the shell 1.

[0031] The conveying device 2 is located in the upper left part of the shell 1, and is composed of 7 rollers 201. The rollers 201 are cylindrical in shape and made of stainless steel. They are fixed to two side walls of the vegetable washing device and are driven by a motor. The rollers 201 are driven by gears. The 7 rollers are arranged in two consecutive bends as a whole, wherein the first and second rollers are arranged obliquely downward, the third, fourth and fifth rollers are arranged in parallel, and the sixth and seventh rollers are arranged obliquely downward.

[0032] The vegetable washing device 4 is located at the upper right part of the shell 1, and includes a water tank 406, a cleaner 401 and a nozzle 402. The water tank 406 is arranged on the upper part of the shell 1, and the nozzle 402 is connected to the water tank 406 through a water pipe 403. The cleaner 401 is arranged above the conveying device 2. There are three cleaners 401, which adopt a cylindrical brush structure and can roll with the rollers (driven by an independent motor to roll). The three cleaners 401 are all located in the parallel section of the conveyor. The first cleaner 401 is located between the third and fourth rollers, and the remaining two are located above the fourth and fifth rollers. The nozzle 402 is located above the second and third cleaners 401. The nozzle 402 is connected to the water tank 406 through a water pipe 403. Several nozzles 402 are arranged on both sides of the water pipe 403, which can effectively clean the dishes. The remaining water can return to the water tank 406 through the water pipe 403 for circulating water supply (a small water pump can be set in the water tank 406 for active water supply). The upper baffle 1 407 is located on the left side of the first roller, and the upper baffle 2 404 and the lower baffle 408 are located on the right side of the sixth roller to prevent the dishes from falling.

[0033] The vegetable cutting device 5 is located in the right middle part of the shell, just below the water tank 406, and includes a conveyor belt device 502, a blade 504 and an electromagnet 505. The conveyor belt 21 is composed of a number of rollers with the same spacing and size and a knife-resistant conveyor belt, which transports vegetables from left to right. The conveyor belt device 502 includes a transmission roller, a support roller and a conveyor belt. The transmission roller is arranged at both ends of the conveyor belt, and the support roller is arranged between the transmission rollers. The baffle 501 is located on both sides of the conveyor belt device 502, and a blade 504 is set at three quarters of the baffle 501. The baffle 501 is provided with a slide groove, and the slide groove is slidably matched with the end of the blade 504 to guide the movement of the blade 504. A magnet 506 is connected to the blade 504 at the top of the blade 504. An electromagnet 505 is provided at the bottom of the water storage tank 406, and the electromagnet 505 is located directly above the magnet 506, which can be used to control the speed of the up and down movement of the blade 504. At the tail of the vegetable cutting device 5, there is an inward placement plate 503 for placing vegetable supplies. The speed of the blade falling can also be adjusted by the speed of the magnetic conversion of the electromagnet. The size of the cut vegetables is different according to the different speeds of the blade falling.

[0034] The sewage discharge device 3 is located at the very bottom of the entire device, and the filter 302 runs through three quarters of the entire device. There is a handle 304 of the filter 302 on the outside of the left side of the entire device, which is convenient for the user to pull out the filter 302 for cleaning and replacement. The sewage storage tank 301 is located at the very bottom of the entire device, and the drain pipe 303 is connected to the sewage storage tank 301 at the lower left corner of the device for discharging sewage.

[0035] The workflow is:

[0036] 1) The user puts the dishes into the dish inlet, and the dishes will be brought into the dish washing device as the rollers of the conveyor roll. In the dish washing device, the dishes can be effectively cleaned as the three cleaners rotate and the top nozzles continuously rinse them.

[0037] 2) After cleaning, the vegetables follow the rollers into the vegetable cutting device. As the electromagnet operates, the blades fall and the vegetables are cut into strips of uniform size. The strips then follow the conveyor belt device onto the placement plate 503 and are taken out from the side opening.

[0038] 3) The sewage during cleaning flows into the sewage storage tank at the bottom of the device, and the sewage storage tank discharges the sewage out of the device through the drain pipe. The dirt washed during the cleaning process falls into the filter above the sewage storage tank with the water flow, and the dirt is left in the filter. The user can pull out the filter for cleaning and then put it back. The water storage tank 406 of the device can be opened from the top to facilitate the user to add clean water.

[0039] The data and specific operation methods in the above examples are only to show an applicable case and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any operation in any detail or corresponding modification of the data should not be considered as an improvement of the invention.
