A sealing ring is provided between the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 and the bearing ring body 101. The sealing ring ensures the sealing between the bearing ring body 101, the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 to prevent water from flowing out of the nozzle body 100 and affecting the effect of the subsequent cleaning water flow; the outer wall of the top of the first frustum cover 110 is fixedly connected with a connecting The ring body 111, the connecting ring body 111 is connected to the external water pipe, the bottom end of the second frustum cover 120 is in a closed state, and is fixedly connected to a stainless steel nozzle 121; the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 are processed with evenly distributed water holes around them, the water holes on the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 are staggered with each other and the number is the same, the number of water holes on the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 is 2-8, the water holes on the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 are staggered with each other to avoid repeated cleaning of water sprayed from the upper and lower water holes, and the mutual staggering can speed up the cleaning speed;

[0034] It also includes an adjustment mechanism 200, which includes a movable mobile connecting rod 210 connected to an external driving device, and the outer wall of the bottom end of the mobile connecting rod 210 is fixedly connected to a support connecting rod 211.

The projection of the adjusting link 221 on one of the movable supporting columns 220 on the horizontal plane is located at the bisector of the angle of the projection of the two adjusting links 221 on the other movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane. The projection of the movable link 210 on the horizontal plane is located at the bisector of the angle of the projection of the two adjacent adjusting links 221 on the upper and lower movable supporting columns 220 on the horizontal plane. The movable link 210 is located between the upper and lower adjusting links 221 and has a larger movable area in the case of its own shape, thereby avoiding collision with the adjusting link 221.

[0035] The apparatus also includes a plurality of telescopic nozzles 300, which are respectively disposed at the water outlets of the first and second truncated cone covers 110 and 120, and whose inner walls are fixedly connected to the cross spray ring 223.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the preferred angle between the adjusting connecting rod 221 and the horizontal line of the present invention is 30°;

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, the preferred number of water outlets on the first conical cover 110 and the second conical cover 120 in this embodiment is four, that is, the angle between the projections of two adjacent adjusting links 221 on the same movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane is 90°, and the angle between the projection of the adjusting link 221 on one movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane and the two adjacent adjusting links 221 on the other movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane is 45°, and the angle between the rotating link 212 and the adjacent adjusting link 221 on the horizontal plane is 22.5°; the four water outlets on the first conical cover 110 and the second conical cover 120 can fully clean the four directions of the front, back, left and right inside the tank body, and the water outlet holes on the first conical cover 110 and the second conical cover 120 are staggered with each other, further increasing the cleaning area;

[0038] In this embodiment, the device is installed on the water pipe through the connecting ring body 111, the movable connecting rod 210 is connected to the external driving device, and then the nozzle device is placed inside the tank to be cleaned, and water is passed into the water pipe. At this time, the water flows into the nozzle body 100, and then passes through the water outlet holes on the first frustum cover 110 and the second frustum cover 120 and the telescopic nozzles 300 and 213 to flush the inside of the tank. The staff adjusts the height of the spray according to the position of the water sprayed by the nozzle device, that is, the external driving device drives the two movable connecting rods 210 to move closer to each other. At this time, the two movable supporting columns 220 move away from each other, and the adjusting link 221 located inside the first conical cover 110 moves upward, causing the telescopic nozzle 300 on the first conical cover 110 to flip upward and extend, while the adjusting link 221 located inside the second conical cover 120 moves downward, causing the telescopic nozzle 300 on the second conical cover 120 to flip downward and extend, thereby increasing the angle between the upper and lower water sprays. When the two movable links 210 are driven away from each other, the angle between the upper and lower water sprays becomes smaller, thereby adjusting the cleaning range inside the tank. Example

[0039] like Figure 6As shown, the preferred number of water outlets on the first conical cover 110 and the second conical cover 120 in this embodiment is six, that is, the angle between the projections of two adjacent adjusting links 221 on the same movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane is 60°, and the angle between the projection of the adjusting link 221 on one movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane and the two adjacent adjusting links 221 on the other movable supporting column 220 on the horizontal plane is 30°, and the angle between the rotating link 212 and the adjacent adjusting link 221 on the horizontal plane is 15°, totaling twelve water outlets. Although more water is required, the cleaning effect is better and the cleaning speed is faster than that of a total of eight water outlets.

[0040] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
