[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0027] As Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a flat washing device for cookware, which includes a housing 1, a bottom plate 2, a carrying mechanism, and a cleaning mechanism. The bottom plate 2 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the housing 1. The carrying mechanism is arranged on the bottom plate 2, and the cookware is placed on the carrying mechanism. The cleaning mechanism includes a screw sleeve 3, a screw rod 4, a mounting plate 5, a bending piece 6, and a cleaning part 7. A plurality of through slots 8 are formed in the side wall of the housing 1. The screw sleeve 3 is swingably arranged in the through slot 8. The swinging direction of the screw sleeve 3 is located in the plane where the axis of the housing 1 is located. The screw rod 4 is in threaded cooperation with the screw sleeve 3. The mounting plate 5 is rotatably arranged at the end of the screw rod 4 around the axis of the screw rod 4. The bending piece 6 is rotatably arranged on the mounting plate 5. The cleaning part 7 is arranged on the bending piece 6.

[0028] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is in a cylindrical shape. The bottom plate 2 is rotatably arranged at the inner bottom of the housing 1. A carrying mechanism is arranged on the bottom plate 2 for installing and positioning the cookware. A plurality of through slots 8 are evenly formed in the circumferential direction of the side wall of the housing 1. A screw sleeve 3 is swingably arranged in each through slot 8. The swinging direction of the screw sleeve 3 is located in the plane where the axis of the housing 1 is located. The screw rod 4 is in threaded cooperation with the screw sleeve 3. The screw rod 4 can adjust the length of its own penetration into the housing 1 by rotation. One end of the screw rod 4 penetrating into the housing 1 is rotatably provided with a mounting plate 5 around the axis of the screw rod 4. The end of the mounting plate 5 is hinged with a bending piece 6. The bending piece 6 is a deformable metal sheet. A plurality of cleaning parts 7 are arranged on the bending piece 6. The cleaning parts 7 can be sponge wipes, steel wool balls, or loofahs, etc. Different cleaning parts 7 can be selected according to needs during use.

[0029] During operation, a cleaning agent is placed in the cookware, and then the cookware is installed and positioned on the carrying mechanism. Then, the required cleaning part 7 is selected. First, the screw sleeve 3 rotates to adjust to a suitable direction facing the inner surface of the cookware. Then, the screw rod 4 rotates to shorten the distance between the cleaning part 7 and the inner surface of the cookware. During the rotation of the screw rod 4, the mounting plate 5 rotates relatively to ensure that the posture of the mounting plate 5 remains unchanged until the cleaning part 7 contacts the inner surface of the cookware. The inner surface of the cookware presses the cleaning part 7, causing the bending piece 6 to deform, so as to be more attached to the inner surface of the cookware. Subsequently, the bottom plate 2 rotates, driving the carrying mechanism and the cookware to rotate around the axis of the housing 1, so that a rubbing occurs between the cleaning part 7 and the inner surface of the cookware, thereby performing cleaning. The unfolding radius of the cleaning part 7 is larger than the inner surface of the cookware. After rotation between the two, the inner surface of the cookware can be covered, so that most positions of the inner surface of the cookware can be cleaned. This not only replaces the manual cleaning work in the prior art but also improves the cleaning effect. The cookware can be kept clean for a long time, thereby extending the service life of the cookware.

[0030] Furthermore, it also includes

[0031] The bearing mechanism includes a telescopic rod 9 and a supporting roller 10. The bottom end of the telescopic rod 9 is swingably arranged on the bottom plate 2. There are multiple telescopic rods 9, which are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction of the bottom plate 2. The supporting roller 10 is rotatably arranged at the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 9.

[0032] In this embodiment, multiple telescopic rods 9 are independently powered and can be independently telescoped and swung, or can move synchronously. The telescopic rods 9 are all inclined. Multiple supporting rollers 10 are all in contact with the bottom surface of the cookware to achieve the supporting effect. For some cookware with other shapes, multiple supporting rollers 10 can also jointly clamp the side wall or other parts of the cookware for positioning. The arrangement direction of the supporting rollers 10 is perpendicular to the radial direction of the housing 1, so that the supporting rollers 10 can slide more smoothly on the surface of the cookware. Generally, the cookware is in a horizontal state during operation. In some special cases where the cookware needs to be placed obliquely, the independent telescoping and independent swinging of multiple telescopic rods 9 can also be used to make the cookware finally present an inclined state, and the use is very flexible.

[0033] Furthermore, it also includes

[0034] A cover plate 11 is hinged to the top of the housing 1. A hollow tube 12 is slidably arranged along the axial direction at the center of the cover plate 11. A first semi-circular tube 13 and a second semi-circular tube 14 are arranged in the hollow tube 12. The side wall planes of the first semi-circular tube 13 and the second semi-circular tube 14 are attached to form a cylinder. An abutting portion 24 is rotatably arranged at the center of the bottom end of the hollow tube 12. After the hollow tube 12 slides, the abutting portion 24 abuts or disengages from the surface of the cookware.

[0035] In this embodiment, the hollow tube 12 is used to combine the first semi-circular tube 13 and the second semi-circular tube 14. The cylinder formed by the first semi-circular tube 13 and the second semi-circular tube 14 is inserted into the hollow tube 12 for positioning. By sliding the hollow tube 12 along the axial direction of the housing 1, the abutting portion 24 can abut against the surface of the cookware, can rotate with the rotation of the cookware, and jointly form axial clamping and positioning with the lower supporting roller 10, so that the positioning of the cookware is stable and firm, improving safety.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes

[0037] A water storage tank 15 is arranged on the cover plate 11. A water pump 16 is arranged in the water storage tank 15. A water pipe 17 is connected between the water pump 16 and the first semi-circular tube 13. A plurality of first arc-shaped branch pipes 18 are evenly arranged along the circumference at the bottom end of the first semi-circular tube 13.

[0038] In this embodiment, water can be added to the water storage tank 15. With the help of the water pump 16, water sequentially passes through the water pipe 17, the first semi-circular pipe 13, and the first arc-shaped branch pipe 18 and enters the cookware, realizing that the cookware can be placed in the housing 1 first and then water can be injected, solving the problem that when there is water in the cookware, it is heavy and not easy to pick up and place. The first arc-shaped branch pipe 18 is arc-shaped, which can better fit the inner surface of the iron wok, so that when water flows out, it can relatively fit the surface of the cookware and is not easy to splash.

[0039] Furthermore, it further includes

[0040] The bottom of the water storage tank 15 is provided with a sliding groove 19, and a tray 20 is slidably arranged in the sliding groove 19. Both ends of the water pump 16 respectively have a water inlet and a water outlet. The water pump 16 is rotatably arranged on the tray 20, and the water pipe 17 is communicated with the water inlet or the water outlet.

[0041] In this embodiment, by sliding the tray 20 in the sliding groove 19, enough space is provided for the rotation of the water pump 16, and the water inlet or the water outlet of the water pump 16 can be switched to be communicated with the water pipe 17, so as to switch between two states of the water pump 16 injecting water into the housing 1 or pumping water out of the housing 1. After the cleaning of the cookware is completed, the water in the cookware can be pumped out by means of the water pump 16, thereby reducing the weight when taking out the cookware and reducing the labor intensity of the user.

[0042] Furthermore, it further includes

[0043] An air pump 21 is arranged on the cover plate 11. An air pipe 22 is connected between the air pump 21 and the second semi-circular pipe 14. A plurality of second arc-shaped branch pipes 23 are arranged along the circumference at the bottom end of the second semi-circular pipe 14.

[0044] Furthermore, it further includes

[0045] The bottom plate 2 is a heating panel.

[0046] In this embodiment, the bottom plate 2 being a heating panel can heat the cookware. In actual life, sometimes due to improper operation, the surface of the cookware is overheated and black dirt appears. In order to remove the dirt, water and alkaline cleaner are added to the cookware and boiled, and then it will be easier to clean the dirt on the cookware. When the cookware has just been heated, it is easy to damage the cookware due to too large a temperature difference during direct cleaning. In this embodiment, after the cookware is cleaned and the water is pumped out, the air pump 21 operates to blow gas onto the inner surface of the cookware, accelerating the air circulation on the inner surface of the cookware, accelerating the cooling of the cookware without damaging the cookware, thereby improving the efficiency of cleaning the cookware.

[0047] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
