Among them, the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 each include a plurality of roller brushes, and the number of roller brushes of the upper roller brush assembly 2 is equal to the number of roller brushes of the lower roller brush assembly 3. The two roller brushes adjacent to each other on the left and right of the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 are close to each other, that is, there is no gap.

[0030] The upper roller brush assembly 2 is correspondingly arranged on the upper side of the lower roller brush assembly 3 and a gap 7 for the lobster to pass through is arranged between the upper roller brush assembly and the lower roller brush assembly 3. An entrance 13 is arranged at one end of the chassis 1 and a delivery outlet 14 is arranged at the other end. The axial direction of the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the crayfish in the chassis 1.

[0031] The rotation direction of the upper roller brush assembly 2 can be the same as or opposite to the rotation direction of the lower roller brush assembly, and the crayfish can be transferred from the entrance 13 through the gap 7 to the delivery outlet 14.

[0032] When the crayfish cleaning machine of this embodiment is in use, the lobster to be cleaned is placed at the entrance 13. At this time, the rotation directions of the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 are opposite, thereby driving the food into the gap 7 formed by the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3; when the food enters the gap 7, the rotation directions of the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 are the same, and the food is rolled back and forth between the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3, producing an action similar to manual rolling cleaning; after cleaning is completed, the rotation directions of the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 are opposite, thereby driving the food to move in the opposite direction to the delivery outlet 14, thereby completing the entire cleaning process.

[0033] The crayfish cleaning machine of this embodiment has a good cleaning effect on crayfish by simulating the action of repeated manual cleaning, replacing manual cleaning and achieving the effect of manual cleaning, thereby improving cleaning efficiency.

[0034] As a preferred implementation mode, Figure 3 As shown, the inlet opening 13, the gap 7 and the outlet opening 14 are at the same height.

[0035] When cleaning, the crayfish in this embodiment enters between the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 from the entrance 13, and is sent out of the chassis 1 from the delivery outlet 14 after passing through the roller brushes of the lower roller brush assembly 3 of the upper roller brush assembly 2. The entrance 13, the gap 7 and the delivery outlet 14 are at the same height, which improves the efficiency of the crayfish entering and being sent out of the chassis 1, so that when the food is not in the entrance 13 and the delivery outlet 14, it is in contact with the roller brush of the upper roller brush assembly 2 or the lower roller brush assembly 3 for brushing, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency. In addition, the two adjacent roller brushes of the upper roller brush assembly 2 and the lower roller brush assembly 3 are close to each other, so as to prevent the food from falling during the cleaning process, and further ensure the effectiveness of cleaning.
