Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fruit processing, in particular to a conveying and cleaning machine used for fruit processing. Background Art
[0002] The conveyor cleaning machine is a vital equipment in the fruit processing industry. It is designed to improve production efficiency and ensure the hygiene and safety of fruits. This equipment is usually integrated into the fruit processing production line as a pretreatment step. The bubble cleaning machine is a widely used cleaning equipment in the fruit processing field. Its core advantage lies in its high efficiency, environmental protection and automated cleaning capabilities. It is suitable for the cleaning of a variety of fruits and can clean the fruits efficiently and comprehensively.
[0003] There are still some inconveniences in the existing bubble cleaning machines. Traditional bubble cleaning machines usually only have limited water pressure adjustment functions, which makes it difficult to find a suitable water pressure balance point when cleaning both soft and hard fruits at the same time. Soft fruits such as grapes are extremely sensitive to water pressure due to their thin skin and tender flesh. Excessive water pressure can easily cause them to break and damage the skin, thereby affecting the integrity and quality of the fruit. Hard fruits such as apples have thick skins and require higher water pressure to effectively remove surface dirt and pesticide residues. Therefore, when the existing equipment processes these two types of fruits at the same time, it is often difficult to balance the cleaning effect and the integrity of the fruit. In addition, when cleaning fruits with special shapes, such as pears and peaches with concave or convex bottoms, traditional bubble cleaning machines are prone to form cleaning dead corners. Although the equipment is designed with bubble disturbance and stirring devices, these devices often cannot ensure that the fruit can be evenly turned in the water when facing large and heavy fruits, resulting in the bottom dirt and pesticide residues of fruits that have been in the cleaning dead corners for a long time. It is difficult to effectively remove. Summary of the invention

[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0017] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , a conveying and cleaning machine for fruit processing, comprising: A base 1, a feed conveyor belt 2 is arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, a cleaning pool 4 is arranged on the primary surface of the feed conveyor belt 2, a water storage tank 16 is provided inside the cleaning pool 4, a water level mark 12 is also provided on the inner side surface of the cleaning pool 4, a plurality of shower nozzles 5 are arranged on the upper surface of the cleaning pool 4, a water supply pipe 6 for conveying water to the shower nozzles 5 is arranged on the primary surface of the shower nozzles 5, a discharge conveyor belt 3 is arranged on the side surface of the cleaning pool 4 away from the feed conveyor belt 2, a frame for carrying the feed conveyor belt 2 and the discharge conveyor belt 3 is arranged below them, and a blower 8 is arranged on the upper surface of the discharge conveyor belt 3; When in use, the staff adds water to the water storage tank 16 through an external water source according to the cleaning needs, until the water level reaches the appropriate water level line indicated by the water level mark 12 on the inner side surface of the cleaning pool 4. The design of the water level mark 12 is convenient for the operator to quickly and accurately adjust the water volume, ensuring the cleaning effect while avoiding water resource waste. Then the feed conveyor 2 is started, and the fruit to be cleaned is placed on the feed conveyor 2. With the continuous movement of the feed conveyor 2, the fruit is smoothly transported to the inside of the cleaning pool 4. When the fruit enters the cleaning pool 4, the shower head 5 starts to work, and the water source is supplied to each shower head through the water pipe 6 to form a uniform and dense water flow to wash the fruit in all directions. The washed fruit continues to move forward driven by the water flow and finally arrives at the discharge conveyor 3 adjacent to the cleaning pool 4. At this time, the discharge conveyor 3 is started to transport the fruit to the next processing area. A blower 8 is arranged on the upper surface of the discharge conveyor 3. When the fruit passes by, the blower is started to quickly remove the residual moisture on the surface of the fruit, so as to achieve preliminary drying for subsequent processing.
[0018] The above process is the basic process of fruit processing and cleaning.
[0019] However, in the actual fruit processing industry, bubble cleaning machines are used as a common cleaning equipment and are widely used in the pre-processing stage of various fruits. However, in actual operation, in order to speed up the processing efficiency and to meet the processing needs, different types of fruits are often cleaned at the same time, and the fruits cleaned at the same time generally have different characteristics. For example, the more common soft fruits (such as grapes) and hard fruits (such as apples), the existing bubble cleaning machines usually have only one or a limited number of water pressure adjustment gears, which is difficult to meet the cleaning needs of multiple fruits. In the case where the multiple fruits to be cleaned include both soft fruits and hard fruits, Because smaller and softer fruits have thin skins and tender flesh, they are extremely sensitive to water pressure. Excessive water pressure will directly cause the fruits to break and the skins to be damaged, thus affecting the integrity and quality of the fruits. On the contrary, larger and harder fruits have thick skins, which require higher water pressure to effectively remove surface dirt and pesticide residues. When washing both soft and hard fruits at the same time, how to find a balance in water pressure that will not damage soft fruits while ensuring that hard fruits are thoroughly cleaned has become a thorny issue. Separating the two types of fruits and washing them one by one will increase the workload and processing time, resulting in reduced processing efficiency. In addition, due to their special shapes, such as depressions or protrusions on the bottom, some fruits (such as pears, peaches, etc.) are often difficult to be directly washed by the shower head 5 when floating in the water. If they are in this state for a long time, the bottom of the fruit is prone to form a cleaning dead corner, and dirt and pesticide residues are difficult to be effectively removed. Although the bubble cleaning machine is designed with bubble disturbance and stirring devices, these devices often cannot ensure that all fruits can be evenly turned over in the water when facing fruits of different shapes. In particular, for fruits with larger volume and heavier weight, it is more difficult to turn them over and it is more likely to form a cleaning dead corner.
[0020] Therefore, based on the above problem, we first design a cleaning mechanism, which includes a feeding component, a washing component and a discharging component. The feeding component includes: a baffle plate 10, which is arranged inside the cleaning pool 4, and the lower surfaces on both sides of the baffle plate 10 are fixedly connected to the inner side surfaces of the cleaning pool 4. A surface of the baffle plate 10 is provided with a movable plate body 29 that can be lifted and lowered, and both side surfaces of the movable plate body 29 are provided with limited side rods 26, and a shaft body is provided at the connection between the limited side rod 26 and the movable plate body 29, and the other end of the limited side rod 26 can slide on the side surface of the baffle plate 10, and a slideway is provided on the side surface of the baffle plate 10 for facilitating the sliding of the limited side rod 26, and a plurality of fruit separation combs 27 are provided on the side surface of the movable plate body 29 opposite to the baffle plate 10, and a plurality of electric telescopic rods 28 are provided on the side surface of the movable plate body 29 away from the fruit separation comb 27, and the electric telescopic rod 28 is arranged inside the frame below the feed conveyor belt 2; When it is necessary to wash different kinds of fruits, when multiple kinds of fruits enter the washing tank 4 through the feeding conveyor belt 2, when the fruits leave the upper surface of the feeding conveyor belt 2 and fall into the water storage tank 16, the fruits are first blocked by the baffle plate 10 and roll down to the top of the movable plate body 29. Then, the electric telescopic rod 28 is extended through the signal to drive the movable plate body 29 to move upward. The distance between the movable plate body 29 and the baffle plate 10 can be maintained during the movement through the limiting side rods 26 on both sides. During the rising process of the movable plate body 29, the water on the side of the movable plate body 29 The fruit separation comb 27 carries the fruits and moves. At this time, the smaller soft fruits fall downward from the gap of the fruit separation comb 27 and enter the interior of the washing component below, while the larger hard fruits gradually lose the shielding of the baffle plate 10 as the movable plate body 29 rises, and roll downward along the inclined surface of the fruit separation comb 27 and fall into the water again, and then continue to move forward driven by the water flow, while the soft fruits move synchronously with it from the interior of the washing component, and are finally fished out from the inside of the cleaning tank 4 through the discharging component and transported to the upper surface of the discharging conveyor belt 3.
[0021] The washing assembly includes: a water flow transmission belt 17, which is arranged at the center of the washing pool 4 and located on the inner upper surface of the water storage tank 16. A control motor for driving the water flow transmission belt 17 is arranged inside the water flow transmission belt 17. A plurality of internal support rods 20 for supporting are also arranged inside the water flow transmission belt 17. A plurality of water deflecting plates 21 are also arranged on the upper surface of the water flow transmission belt 17. A lower washing pipe 15 that can be lifted and lowered is arranged above the water flow transmission belt 17. A lower feed pipe 1 is arranged on one side of the lower washing pipe 15. 1. A waterproof spring rod 25 is provided at the connection between the lower feed pipe 11 and the lower cleaning pipe 15. Both sides of the lower feed pipe 11 are fixedly connected to the inner side surface of the cleaning tank 4. The inlet of the lower feed pipe 11 is located directly below the feeding assembly. A plurality of bottom arc frames 23 are also provided on the bottom surface of the lower cleaning pipe 15. A plurality of fixed support plates 22 are also provided on the inner side surface of the cleaning tank 4. A waterproof spring rod 25 is also provided above the fixed support plate 22. The top of the waterproof spring rod 25 is connected to the bottom surface of the lower cleaning pipe 15. The separation and washing component is used to clean the soft fruits separated from the hard fruits. After the soft fruits fall from the surface of the feeding component, they fall downward with their own weight and enter through the upper opening of the lower feeding pipe 11, and finally enter the interior of the lower cleaning pipe 15 through the lower feeding pipe 11. Then, the water flow transmission belt 17 on the bottom surface of the cleaning pool 4 operates, and uses the water-displacing plate 21 on its surface to shift the water flow, so that the water flow generates a continuous shifting force in one direction, and uses the water flow to drive the fruits to be transported. The bottom surface of the lower cleaning pipe 15 is provided with a plurality of bottom arc frames 23, and the bottom surface of the bottom arc frame 23 has an arc surface. When the water-displacing plate 21 shifts the water flow, when the water flow impacts the bottom arc surface of the bottom arc frame 23, the impact force generated will cause the lower cleaning pipe 15 to achieve an upward lifting force. During the upward movement of the lower cleaning pipe 15, the lower cleaning pipe 15 limits its movable position through the waterproof spring rod 25 connected to the lower feed pipe 11 and the fixed support plate 22, and continuously shakes up and down with the resetting effect of the waterproof spring rod 25 and the continuous water flow, and drives the soft fruits inside to shake up and down, so that the surface of the fruit and the water body have a sufficient friction cleaning effect, and after the hard fruits on the upper water surface are rinsed by the shower head 5, the generated water flow is weakened by the water body and rinses the hard fruits inside through the upper surface opening of the lower cleaning pipe 15, so as to avoid the soft fruits from being directly impacted by the excessively strong water flow and being damaged. After passing through the interior of the lower cleaning pipe 15, the soft fruits leave from the other side and finally merge with the hard fruits.
[0022] The discharge assembly includes: a drain conveyor belt 7, which is arranged at the junction of the cleaning tank 4 and the discharge conveyor belt 3, and a water retaining plate 18 is also arranged on one side surface of the cleaning tank 4, and a plurality of mounting base plates 33 are arranged on the surface of the drain conveyor belt 7, and a limiting base plate 30 is fixedly installed on one side surface of the mounting base plate 33, and a rotatable bearing frame 31 is also arranged on one side surface of the mounting base plate 33, and a rotating shaft is arranged at the connection between the bearing frame 31 and the mounting base plate 33, and a drain mesh 32 for draining water is provided on the bottom surface of the bearing frame 31; After being washed, the hard fruits and soft fruits reach one side of the washing pool 4, and then the draining conveyor belt 7 operates to drive multiple supporting frames 31 to rise from below the water surface, and the fruits on the water surface are scooped up and leave the water surface as the draining conveyor belt 7 operates. After leaving the water surface, the draining mesh 32 can drain the water on the surface of the fruit. When the supporting frame 31 reaches the other side of the draining conveyor belt 7, the supporting frame 31 loses the restricting effect of the restricting bottom plate 30 and turns over downward, and then pours out the fruits inside, and makes the fruits fall onto the top of the discharge conveyor belt 3 for drying and transportation.
[0023] At the same time, based on the previous problems, we have also designed a water-draining component, which includes: multiple push-up plates 14, the push-up plates 14 are located on the upper surface of the cleaning tube 15 below, and the upper surface of the push-up plates 14 is provided with branch push-up piles 24. The upper surface of each push-up plate 14 is provided with a fixed horizontal plate 13 matched with it, and two liftable lifting rods 35 are provided at the center of the fixed horizontal plate 13. The upper surface of the lifting rod 35 is provided with a shifting arc plate 9, and the surface of the lifting rod 35 is also provided with an anti-slip ring 34 for preventing the lifting rod 35 from detaching from the fixed horizontal plate 13. Multiple rotating shafts 38 are also provided inside the cleaning pool 4, and a rotating shaft 38 is provided between each fixed horizontal plate 13 and the cleaning tube 15 below, and sliding plates 19 are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 38. A rotating shaft is arranged between the shaft rod 38 and the sliding plate 19, a force-bearing sheet 40 is arranged on one side surface of the rotating shaft, a groove for absorbing the impact force of the water flow is arranged on one side surface of the force-bearing sheet 40, a terminal load-bearing block 41 is arranged on one side surface of the force-bearing sheet 40, a coupling block 39 is arranged on one side surface of the rotating shaft rod 38, arc grooves matching the two sides of the coupling block 39 are arranged on the bottom surface of the lifting rod 35 and the upper surface of the branch top pile 24, arc grooves matching the two sides of the coupling block 39 are arranged on the top surfaces of the two protrusions on the upper surface of the branch top pile 24, and arc grooves matching the coupling block 39 are arranged on the inner side surface of the cleaning tank 4 to facilitate the sliding of the sliding plate 19, a connecting spring 37 is arranged on the upper surface of the sliding plate 19, a fixing block 36 is arranged on the top of the connecting spring 37, and the fixing block 36 is fixedly connected to the inner side surface of the cleaning tank 4; When the water-displacing assembly is working, it is also started. When the lower cleaning pipe 15 is shaken up and down by the water flow, the multiple push plates 14 on the upper surface of the lower cleaning pipe 15 are also pushed upward, and the rotating shaft 38 above the lower cleaning pipe 15 is also rotated by the water flow. The force-bearing plate 40 on the side surface of the rotating shaft 38 is impacted by the water flow and swings, and the weight of the end load-bearing block 41 on one side of the force-bearing plate 40 is quickly swung back in the opposite direction, thereby driving the rotating shaft 38 to rotate, and thereby driving the coupling block 39 to swing synchronously. When the coupling block 39 swings randomly to one side with the water flow, the lower cleaning pipe 15 rises and pushes upward through one of the branch top piles 24 at the top of the push plate 14, and fills the gap between it and the lifting rod 35 through the coupling block 39. The distance between the lifting rods 35 and the cleaning pipe 15 below can be synchronously raised because the lifting rods 35 and the ends of the branch top piles 24 have two lifting rods 35 at random when the joint block 39 swings, and the arc plate 9 is moved upward to apply an upward thrust to the hard fruits floating on the water surface. The impact force of the shower head 5 can make the fruits more easily overturned, and the surface of the fruits can be more easily washed. The random downward thrust can make the stability of the fruits in the water lower and increase the probability of the fruits overturning. The upward thrust generated by moving the arc plate 9 can also weaken the water flow sprayed by the shower head 5 to a certain extent, so as to ensure that the soft fruits below are subjected to a weaker impact effect and prevent them from being damaged.
[0024] The working principle of the present invention is: When in use, the staff adds water to the water storage tank 16 through an external water source according to the cleaning needs, until the water level reaches the appropriate water level line indicated by the water level mark 12 on the inner side surface of the cleaning pool 4. The design of the water level mark 12 is convenient for the operator to quickly and accurately adjust the water volume, ensuring the cleaning effect while avoiding water resource waste. Then the feeding conveyor belt 2 is started, and the fruits to be washed are placed on the feeding conveyor belt 2. With the continuous movement of the feeding conveyor belt 2, the fruits are smoothly transported to the inside of the cleaning pool 4. When the fruits enter the cleaning pool 4, the shower nozzle 5 starts to work, and the water source is supplied to each shower nozzle through the water pipe 6, forming a uniform and dense water flow, and the fruits are washed in all directions; When it is necessary to wash different kinds of fruits, when multiple kinds of fruits enter the washing tank 4 through the feeding conveyor belt 2, when the fruits fall from the upper surface of the feeding conveyor belt 2 to the inside of the water storage tank 16, the fruits are first blocked by the baffle plate 10 and roll down to the top of the movable plate body 29. Then, the electric telescopic rod 28 is extended through the signal to drive the movable plate body 29 to move upward. The limiting side rods 26 on both sides can maintain the distance between the movable plate body 29 and the baffle plate 10 during the movement. During the rising process, the fruit separation comb 27 on the side of the movable plate 29 carries the fruits to move, and at this time, the smaller soft fruits fall downward from the gap between the fruit separation comb 27 and enter the interior of the washing assembly below, while the larger hard fruits gradually lose the shielding of the baffle plate 10 as the movable plate 29 rises, and roll downward along the inclined surface of the fruit separation comb 27 and fall into the water again, and then continue to move forward driven by the water flow, while the soft fruits move synchronously with it from the interior of the washing assembly; After the soft fruit falls from the surface of the feeding component, it falls downward with its own weight and enters through the upper opening of the lower feeding pipe 11, and finally enters the interior of the lower cleaning pipe 15 through the lower feeding pipe 11. Then, the water flow transmission belt 17 on the bottom surface of the cleaning pool 4 operates, and uses the water-displacing plate 21 on its surface to shift the water flow, so that the water flow generates a continuous shifting force in one direction, and uses the water flow to drive the fruit to be transported. The bottom surface of the lower cleaning pipe 15 is provided with a plurality of bottom arc frames 23, and the bottom surface of the bottom arc frame 23 has an arc surface. When the water-displacing plate 21 shifts the water flow, when the water flow impacts the bottom arc surface of the bottom arc frame 23, the impact force generated will cause the lower cleaning pipe 15 to achieve an upward lifting force, and the lower cleaning pipe 15 is moved upward. During the upward movement, the lower cleaning pipe 15 is limited in its movable position by the waterproof spring rod 25 connected to the lower feeding pipe 11 and the fixed support plate 22, and continuously shakes up and down with the reset effect of the waterproof spring rod 25 and the continuous water flow, and drives the soft fruits inside to shake up and down, so that the surface of the fruit and the water body have a sufficient friction cleaning effect, and after the hard fruits on the upper water surface are washed by the shower head 5, the generated water flow is weakened by the water body and then washed by the upper surface opening of the lower cleaning pipe 15 to the hard fruits inside, so as to avoid the soft fruits being directly impacted by the overly strong water flow and being damaged. After passing through the interior of the lower cleaning pipe 15, the soft fruits come out from the other side and finally merge with the hard fruits; When the water-displacing assembly is working, the water-displacing assembly is also started. When the lower cleaning pipe 15 is shaken up and down by the water flow, the multiple push-up plates 14 on the upper surface of the lower cleaning pipe 15 are also pushed upward, and the rotating shaft 38 above the lower cleaning pipe 15 is also rotated by the water flow. The force-bearing plate 40 on the side surface of the rotating shaft 38 is impacted by the water flow and swings, and the weight of the end load-bearing block 41 on one side of the force-bearing plate 40 is used to swing back in the opposite direction quickly, thereby driving the rotating shaft 38 to rotate, and thereby driving the coupling block 39 to swing synchronously. When the coupling block 39 swings randomly to one side with the water flow, , the lower cleaning pipe 15 rises and is pushed upward by one of the branch top piles 24 at the top of the push plate 14, and the distance between it and the lifting rod 35 is made up by the joint block 39, so that one of the lifting rods 35 at the center of the fixed horizontal plate 13 can be synchronously raised with the current rise of the lower cleaning pipe 15, so that the surface of the fruit is more susceptible to a comprehensive washing effect, and the random oblique downward thrust can make the stability of the fruit in the water lower, and increase the probability of the fruit tipping over. The upward thrust generated by the arc plate 9 can also weaken the water flow sprayed by the shower head 5 to a certain extent, so as to ensure that the soft fruit below is subjected to a weaker impact effect and prevent it from being damaged; After being washed, the hard fruits and soft fruits reach one side of the washing pool 4, and then the draining conveyor belt 7 is operated to drive multiple supporting frames 31 to rise from below the water surface, and the fruits on the water surface are picked up and leave the water surface as the draining conveyor belt 7 operates. After leaving the water surface, the draining mesh 32 can drain the water on the surface of the fruit. When the supporting frame 31 reaches the other side of the draining conveyor belt 7, the supporting frame 31 loses the restricting effect of the restricting bottom plate 30 and turns down, and then pours out the fruit inside, and makes the fruit fall onto the top of the discharging conveyor belt 3 for drying and transportation. A hair dryer 8 is arranged on the upper surface of the discharging conveyor belt 3. When the fruit passes by, the hair dryer is started to quickly remove the residual moisture on the surface of the fruit, so as to achieve preliminary drying for subsequent processing.
