Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of catering cleaning equipment, and in particular relates to a catering kitchenware cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Hot pot generally refers to a cooking method that uses a pot as a utensil, a heat source to burn the pot, and boils water or soup to cook various foods. It can also refer to the pot used for this cooking method. Its characteristics are that the food is cooked and eaten at the same time, or the pot itself has a heat-keeping effect, so the food is still steaming hot when eating, and the soup is combined. Since hot pot is more suitable for many people to eat together, and different people have different tastes, there are currently double-flavored pots or field-shaped hot pots, so that a variety of soup bases can be placed in one hot pot to satisfy the tastes of different people.

[0003] Although the Tianzi-shaped hot pot can hold four flavors of soup base in one pot, when it comes to cleaning the Tianzi-shaped hot pot, each cavity inside the Tianzi-shaped hot pot is smaller than that of an ordinary hot pot, making it difficult for actual catering staff to clean the Tianzi-shaped hot pot well, especially at the four corners of the cavity. If it is not cleaned properly, it will lead to bacterial growth, seriously affecting the safety of diners.

[0004] For this reason, we propose a dining utensils and kitchenware cleaning device to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0026] The field-shaped hot pot to be cleaned can be placed in the fixed groove 13, and then the suction pump 16 can generate negative pressure in the vent 14, thereby fixing the field-shaped hot pot. At the same time, the nozzle 12 will spray an aqueous solution containing a detergent, thereby making it easier to remove the oil stains in the field-shaped hot pot, and the water in the fixed groove 13 can also be discharged through the vent 14.

[0027] A plurality of vertically arranged support rods 2 are fixedly connected to the base 1 , a top plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top end of the support rods 2 , and a lifting mechanism 4 is arranged at the lower end of the top plate 3 .

[0028] The lifting mechanism 4 is composed of a cylinder 41 and a lifting plate 42 . The top end of the cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the top plate 3 , the bottom end of the cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 42 , and the lifting plate 42 is slidably connected to the support rod 2 .

[0029] Four cleaning mechanisms 5 are provided at the bottom end of the lifting mechanism 4. The cleaning mechanism 5 is composed of cleaning cotton 51, a connecting shaft 52, a rotating part 53 and a limiting sleeve 54. The limiting sleeve 54 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 42. The rotating part 53 is located in the limiting sleeve 54 and is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 52. The connecting shaft 52 is located at the bottom end of the limiting sleeve 54 and is fixedly connected to the cleaning cotton 51.

[0030] The inner horizontal cross-section of the limiting sleeve 54 is a square groove structure, the horizontal cross-sections of the rotating member 53 and the cleaning cotton 51 are both Reuleaux triangle structures, and the central axis of the connecting shaft 52 is arranged to coincide with the central axis of the rotating member 53.

[0031] The cleaning cotton 51 is equal to the side length of the field-shaped hot pot chamber, the width of the rotating part 53 is equal to the side length of the square groove inside the limiting sleeve 54, and the rotating part 53 has four points in contact with the four sides of the square groove inside the limiting sleeve 54 at any time (not necessarily tangent) and the positions of the contact points are constantly changing.

[0032] A driving mechanism 6 serving as a power source for the cleaning mechanism 5 is provided inside the lifting mechanism 4. The driving mechanism 6 consists of an inner gear ring 61, a driven gear 62 and a driving gear 63. A groove 43 opening downward is provided at the bottom end of the lifting plate 42. The inner gear ring 61 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the groove 43. The driving gear 63 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 64 and is rotatably connected to the top wall of the groove 43 through the rotating shaft 64. The central axis of the rotating shaft 64 coincides with the central axis of the limiting sleeve 54, and the driving gear 63 coincides with the central axis of the inner gear ring 61.

[0033] When the driving gear 63 rotates, the driving gear 63 will drive the driven gear 62 to rotate. When the driven gear 62 rotates, it will cooperate with the inner gear ring 61 to realize the driven gear 62 to revolve around the driving gear 63. During this process, the driven gear 62 will drive the connecting shaft 52 connected thereto to move.

[0034] The top of the groove 43 is connected to a ring-shaped limiting groove 44 . The top of the connecting shaft 52 is located in the limiting groove 44 and fixedly connected to a limiting block 55 . The limiting block 55 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 44 .

[0035] A transmission mechanism 7 is provided between the four driving mechanisms 6 and the four driving mechanisms 6 are connected in transmission via the transmission mechanism 7 .

[0036] A transmission chamber 45 is provided in the lifting plate 42, and a transmission mechanism 7 is located in the transmission chamber 45. The transmission mechanism 7 is composed of a motor 71, a synchronous belt 72, a driving wheel 73 and a driven wheel 74. The motor 71 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate 42, and a rotating shaft 64 passes through the bottom wall of the transmission chamber 45 and extends into the transmission chamber 45. One of the rotating shafts 64 is fixedly connected to the driving wheel 73, and the remaining three rotating shafts 64 are fixedly connected to three driven wheels 74 respectively. The three driven wheels 74 and one driving wheel 73 are distributed in a regular quadrilateral. The three driven wheels 74 and one driving wheel 73 are connected by a synchronous belt 72. The rotating shaft 64 fixedly connected to the driving wheel 73 passes through the top wall of the transmission chamber 45 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 71.

[0037] When the motor 71 is working, the motor 71 will drive the rotating shaft 64 fixedly connected thereto to rotate, and the rotating shaft 64 will drive the driving wheel 73 fixedly connected thereto to rotate, and the driving wheel 73 will drive the driven wheel 74 to rotate through the synchronous belt 72, so that the three driven wheels 74 will drive the other three rotating shafts 64 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 64 will drive the driving gear 63 fixedly connected thereto to rotate.

[0038] The operating principle of the present invention is now described as follows:

[0039] The field-shaped hot pot to be cleaned can be placed in the fixing groove 13, and then the suction pump 16 can be used to generate negative pressure in the vent 14, thereby fixing the field-shaped hot pot, and controlling the cylinder 41 to drive the lifting plate 42 to move downward until the four cleaning cottons 51 are all located inside the field-shaped hot pot chamber.

[0040] Then the motor 71 is controlled to rotate. When the motor 71 is working, the motor 71 will drive the rotating shaft 64 fixedly connected thereto to rotate, and the rotating shaft 64 will drive the driving wheel 73 fixedly connected thereto to rotate, and the driving wheel 73 will drive the driven wheel 74 to rotate through the synchronous belt 72, so that the three driven wheels 74 will drive the other three rotating shafts 64 to rotate, and so that the rotating shaft 64 will drive the driving gear 63 fixedly connected thereto to rotate.

[0041] When the driving gear 63 rotates, the driving gear 63 will drive the driven gear 62 to rotate. When the driven gear 62 rotates, it will cooperate with the inner ring 61 to realize the driven gear 62 to revolve around the driving gear 63. During the process, the driven gear 62 will drive the connecting shaft 52 connected to it to move. Since the width of the rotating member 53 is equal to the side length of the square groove inside the limiting sleeve 54, and the rotating member 53 has four points in contact with the four sides of the square groove inside the limiting sleeve 54 at any time, the rotating member 53 will continue to rotate during the process, and the rotating member 53 will cause the cleaning cotton 51 to rotate through the connecting shaft 52.

[0042] The rotation of the cleaning cotton 51 will clean the internal cavity of the field-shaped hot pot together with the aqueous solution sprayed from the nozzle 12. Since the movement trajectory of the edge of the cleaning cotton 51 is a quadrilateral structure at this time, the cleaning cotton 51 can clean the internal cavity of the field-shaped hot pot very well, and still has a good cleaning effect on the corners of the field-shaped hot pot cavity.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
