The thick pipe 14 is slidably connected to the escape groove 31. The right side of the cleaning box 3 is fixedly connected to the telescopic head of the electric telescopic rod 13.

[0042] The sewage discharge and turning-over mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the cleaning box 3.

[0043] Preferably, the sewage discharge turning mechanism includes a circular frame 41, a rotating shaft 42 and a motor 43; the circular frame 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning box 3, and a grille 44 is evenly fixedly connected in the circular frame 41, and a turning seat 45 is fixedly connected between the middle parts of the grille 44, and the front and rear sides of the turning seat 45 are inclined. The inner walls of the front and rear side plates of the circular frame 41 are fixedly connected with a seat body 46 at a position corresponding to the position between two adjacent grille nets 44, and an arc-shaped recess is provided on the side of the seat body 46 close to the turning seat 45. The rotating shaft 42 is rotatably connected between the left and right side plates of the circular frame 41, and the axis of the rotating shaft 42 coincides with the center of the recess. A transmission wheel 47 is fixedly connected to the position of the rotating shaft 42 corresponding to the seat body 46, and the two corresponding front and rear transmission wheels 47 are linked by a conveyor belt 48, and the top of the conveyor belt 48 is flush with the top of the grille net 44. The motor 43 is fixedly connected to the right side of the circular frame 41, and the motor 43 is used to drive the rotating shaft 42 on the front side to rotate.

[0044] Preferably, a scraper seat 49 is fixedly connected to the inner walls of the front and rear side plates of the circular frame 41 at positions corresponding to the conveyor belt 48 , and the scraper seat 49 is tapered on one side close to the turning seat 45 .

[0045] Preferably, a hot air blower 51 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the collecting box 1 , and the hot air outlet of the hot air blower 51 is connected to the thick pipe 14 at the rear side through a hot air pipe 52 .

[0046] Preferably, a spring 53 is fixedly connected to one end of the thick tube 14 away from the support rod 15, and a valve seat 54 is fixedly connected to the head of the spring 53. The valve seat 54 is slidably connected in the thick tube 14, and a positioning ring 55 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the thick tube 14. The inner diameter of the positioning ring 55 decreases in the direction pointing to the valve seat 54. When the valve seat 54 contacts the positioning ring 55, the valve seat 54 is located at the connection position between the thin tube 17 and the thick tube 14.

[0047] Preferably, when the valve seat 54 contacts the positioning ring 55 , the spring 53 is in a natural state.

[0048] Preferably, a water guide seat 56 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the collection box 1, and the thickness of the water guide seat 56 decreases from right to left.

[0049] Preferably, a pair of sliders 57 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the front and rear side panels of the cleaning box 3 , and a slide groove 58 is provided on the collection box 1 , and the sliders 57 are slidably connected in the slide groove 58 .

[0050] A specific embodiment of the present invention is:

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the equipment to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning box 3, and the electric telescopic rod 13 is started to drive the cleaning box 3 to move back and forth left and right. When the cleaning box 3 moves, the thick pipe 14 will not interfere with the movement of the cleaning box 3 due to the avoidance groove 31. The setting of the slider 57 and the slide groove 58 can limit the cleaning box 3, making its movement more stable.

[0052] like Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the water pump 2 draws the cleaning liquid in the water tank 21 through the water inlet pipe 22, the cleaning liquid is transported to the thick pipe 14 on the front side through the water outlet pipe 23, and is sprayed out from the nozzle 18 through the thin tube 17. The equipment moves left and right with the cleaning box 3. During this process, the cleaning liquid is sprayed to rinse the equipment, and the flexible brush rod 16 brushes the equipment.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, after cleaning is completed, the hot air generated by the hot air blower 51 enters the thick pipe 14 at the rear side through the hot air pipe 52, and is sprayed out from the nozzle 18 through the thin pipe 17 to dry the cleaned equipment with hot air.

[0054] like Fig. 9 As shown, a valve seat 54 is provided. In the initial state, under the action of the spring 53, the valve seat 54 contacts the positioning ring 55, thereby closing the head of the capillary 17. When the equipment is rinsed, the cleaning liquid enters from the outlet pipe 23, and the cleaning liquid pushes the front valve seat 54 to move backward, so that the front end of the capillary 17 is opened, and the rear valve seat 54 closes the rear end of the capillary 17, and the cleaning liquid enters the capillary 17 and is sprayed out from the nozzle 18. Conversely, when drying, the rear end of the capillary 17 is opened and the front end is closed, so that the cleaning and drying operations can be performed independently without interfering with each other.

[0055] like Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, during the cleaning and drying process, the motor 43 drives the front rotating shaft 42 and the transmission wheel 47 to rotate, and then drives the conveyor belt 48 to rotate. When the conveyor belt 48 rotates, it drives the equipment to move. When the equipment passes the position of the turning seat 45, the equipment is turned over. The motor 43 is a servo type, and the motor 43 reciprocates forward and reverse, thereby driving the equipment to move back and forth. The equipment is constantly turned over, so that the cleaning and drying of the equipment are more comprehensive and faster.

[0056] During the cleaning process, the cleaned sewage leaks out from the grille net 44. When the debris in the sewage falls on the conveyor belt 48, the debris is driven by the conveyor belt 48. When it reaches the position of the scraper seat 49, the debris is scraped off the conveyor belt 48, passes through the conical scraper seat 49, and is guided to the grille net 44 to leak out.

[0057] like Figure 3 As shown, the sewage slides from right to left on the water guide seat 56. After cleaning and drying are completed, the cover body 12 can be opened to discharge the sewage from the sewage pipe 11.

[0058] The preferred embodiments of the present invention disclosed above are only used to help explain the present invention. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the invention to only specific implementation methods. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments in order to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present invention, so that those skilled in the art can understand and use the present invention well. The present invention is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
