DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 12As shown: it includes a holding frame 1 for holding potatoes, a drain hole is opened at the lower part of the holding frame 1, and also includes a cleaning mechanism 2 and a separation and recovery mechanism; the cleaning mechanism 2 includes a placement structure 21 and a flushing structure 22, the placement structure 21 is arranged at the upper end of the separation and recovery mechanism, the placement structure 21 is used to place the holding frame 1 for holding potatoes, the flushing structure 22 is arranged at the upper end of the placement structure 21, the flushing structure 22 is used to flush the potatoes in the holding frame 1, the placement structure 21 includes a placement rack 211 and a diversion bin 212, the placement rack 211 is arranged inside the diversion bin 212, and the flushing structure 22 is installed at the upper end of the diversion bin 212; the separation and recovery mechanism includes a separation structure 3 and a recovery structure 4, the separation structure 3 and the recovery structure 4 are arranged up and down, and the separation structure 3 is arranged at the lower end of the placement structure 21, the separation structure 3 is used to separate the solid and liquid in the mixed liquid after washing the potatoes, the recovery structure 4 recovers the solid and liquid respectively, and the recovery structure 4 includes a liquid recovery bin 41 and a solid recovery bin 42.
[0038] After the potatoes are cut into pieces, starch will adhere to the cut surface of the potato pieces, which will have an adverse effect on the production of potatoes. Therefore, the potatoes will be rinsed, and the starch on the surface of the potatoes will be discharged with the waste water after rinsing, causing waste. By setting up a cleaning mechanism 2 and a separation and recovery mechanism, the staff will cut the potatoes into pieces and place them in a holding frame 1, and then place the holding frame 1 on a placement rack 211. The flushing structure 22 will rinse the potatoes in the holding frame 1, and the starch on the surface of the potatoes will be washed away. Then, the starch will quickly fall onto the separation structure 3 driven by the water flow. The water used for flushing passes through the separation structure 3, so that the starch that is not soluble in water in a large part is separated from the water, and this part of the starch is transferred to a fixed collection bin, while the starch that is soluble in water passes through the separation structure 3 with the water and falls into the liquid recovery bin 41. The starch is separated from the water through precipitation or other methods, thereby realizing the preliminary purification of the water used for flushing potatoes and the recovery of the starch on the surface of the potatoes.
[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown: the separation structure 3 includes a separation bin 32, a separation net 31 and a cleaning structure 33; the upper end of the separation bin 32 is connected to the lower end of the guide bin 212, and the lower end of the separation bin 32 is connected to the recovery structure 4; the separation net 31 is horizontally arranged inside the separation bin 32, and the separation net 31 is directly below the containing frame 1; the cleaning structure 33 is arranged above the separation net 31, and the cleaning structure 33 is used to clean the solids filtered out from the surface of the separation net 31.
[0040] The starch insoluble in water is separated from water under the action of the separation structure 3, so the starch will remain on the separation structure 3, but as the amount of starch on the separation structure 3 increases, the starch will hinder the water from passing through the separation structure 3, resulting in an increase in the time that the water stays on the separation structure 3, which will cause more starch to dissolve into the water. By setting the separation net 31 and the cleaning structure 33, the separation net 31 separates water and the starch insoluble in water, and the starch remains on the separation net 31, and the water passes through the separation net 31 and falls into the liquid collection bin. After the potatoes in the holding frame 1 are rinsed, the cleaning structure 33 cleans the starch on the separation net 31 to prevent excessive starch from being retained on the separation net 31, thereby avoiding more starch from dissolving into the water and increasing the amount of collected starch.
[0041] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in the figure: the cleaning structure 33 includes a scraper 331, a driving plate 332 and a first driving structure 333; the lower end of the scraper 331 is tightly pressed against the separation net 31, and two auxiliary plates 3312 are arranged at both ends of the scraper 331, and the two auxiliary plates 3312 are respectively located on both sides of the scraper 331, and the auxiliary plates 3312 are used to prevent solids from falling from both ends of the scraper 331; the driving plate 332 is arranged at the upper end of the scraper 331; the first driving structure 333 has two, and the two first driving structures 333 are respectively arranged at the driving At both ends of the movable plate 332, two first driving structures 333 simultaneously apply force to the driving plate 332, the first driving structure 333 includes a first screw 3331, a first screw sleeve 3332 and a first rotation driver 3333, the first screw 3331 is arranged outside the separation bin 32, the first screw 3331 is threadedly connected to the first screw 3331, and the first screw 3331 is connected to one end of the driving plate 332, and the first rotation driver 3333 is used to drive the first screw 3331 to rotate.
[0042] The two first driving structures 333 work simultaneously, the first rotary driver 3333 drives the first screw 3331 to rotate, the first screw 3331 drives the first screw sleeve 3332 to move along the axial direction of the first screw 3331, the two first screw sleeves 3332 simultaneously apply force to both ends of the driving plate 332, the driving plate 332 drives the scraper 331 to move, so that both ends of the scraper 331 are subjected to the same thrust, the lower end of the scraper 331 moves from one end of the separation net 31 to the other end of the separation net 31, the scraper 331 pushes the starch on the separation net 31 into the solid collection bin, thereby realizing the recovery of the starch.
[0043] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown: the cleaning structure 33 also includes a toggle structure 334, which has four toggle structures 334. The four toggle structures 334 are respectively arranged at the connection between the scraper 331 and the four sub-plates 3312, and the toggle structure 334 includes a mounting plate 3341, a second rotary driver 3342 and a toggle blade 3343. One end of the mounting plate 3341 is connected to the drive plate 332, and the second rotary driver 3342 is arranged at the other end of the mounting plate 3341. The toggle blade 3343 is connected to the output shaft of the second rotary driver 3342.
[0044] When the scraper 331 pushes the starch on the filter screen to move, more and more starch will accumulate on one side of the moving direction of the scraper 331, and the excess starch will spread toward the two ends of the scraper 331. Although the sub-plate 3312 can prevent the starch from falling, as the starch accumulates, the starch may exceed the coverage of the sub-plate 3312. By setting the toggle structure 334, when the scraper 331 moves, the toggle structure 334 located at the front end of the moving direction of the scraper 331 works, and the second rotary driver 3342 drives the toggle blade 3343 to rotate. The toggle blade 3343 pushes the starch at the two ends of the scraper 331 to the middle of the scraper 331, thereby preventing the starch from accumulating beyond the coverage of the sub-plate 3312.
[0045] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown: the cleaning structure 33 also includes a first elastic connection structure 335, which is arranged between the scraper 331 and the driving plate 332. The first elastic connection structure 335 includes a second connection block 3351, a plurality of third guide rods 3352 and a plurality of third springs. The second connection block 3351 is connected to the middle part of the scraper 331, and a plurality of third guide rods 3352 are arranged on the second connection block 3351 at equal intervals. One end of the third guide rod 3352 is connected to the second connection block 3351, and the third guide rod 3352 passes through the driving plate 332 upward, and a limiting ring is arranged on the other end of the third guide rod 3352. A plurality of second springs 3353 are respectively mounted on the plurality of third guide rods 3352, and the two ends of the second spring 3353 are respectively abutted against the second connection block 3351 and the driving plate 332.
[0046] Since starch particles are relatively small, using hard materials to make the separation net 31 requires a relatively difficult process for drilling. Therefore, a flexible material is used to make the separation net 31. The flexible material can ensure both the size and density of the water filtering holes. However, there is too much starch on the separation net 31, and the middle part of the separation net 31 will be concave. The lower end of the scraper 331 may not be able to abut against the separation net 31, resulting in the starch on the separation net 31 being unable to be completely pushed into the solid collection bin. By setting a first elastic connection structure 335, the first spring 2313 applies a force toward the separation net 31 to the scraper 331. When the scraper 331 moves along the separation net 31 with the concave middle part, the first spring 2313 pushes the scraper 331 to move downward, so that the scraper 331 maintains vertical movement during the horizontal movement, so that the lower end of the scraper 331 is always in contact with the separation net 31, so that the starch on the separation net 31 is cleaned.
[0047] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown: the separation structure 3 also includes two tensioning structures 34, which are respectively arranged at the two ends of the separation net 31, and the tensioning structure 34 includes two clamping arms 341, two second driving structures 342, two third driving structures 343 and a synchronous driving unit 344; the two clamping arms 341 are arranged parallel to each other, and the two clamping arms 341 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower sides of the separation net 31; the two second driving structures 342 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the clamping arms 341, and the second driving structures 342 are used to drive the two clamping arms 341 to approach or move toward each other. The second driving structure 342 includes a second U-shaped plate 3421, two first moving blocks 3422, a double-headed screw 3423 and a third rotation driver 3424. The opening of the second U-shaped plate 3421 faces the two clamping arms 341. The two first moving blocks 3422 are arranged in the second U-shaped plate 3421. The two first moving blocks 3422 are respectively connected to the same end of the two clamping arms 341. The two ends of the double-headed screw 3423 are respectively connected to the two ends of the second U-shaped plate 3421. The two first moving blocks 3422 are respectively connected to the double-headed screw 3423. The two ends of the clamping arm 341 are respectively connected by threads, and the third rotation driver 3424 is used to drive the double-headed screw 3423 to rotate; the two third driving structures 343 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the clamping arm 341, and the two third driving structures 343 respectively correspond to the two second driving structures 342, and the third driving structure 343 is used to drive one end of the separation net 31 to move in the horizontal direction, and the third driving structure 343 includes a second moving block 3431 and a second screw 3432, the second moving block 3431 is connected to the second U-shaped plate 3421, and the second screw 3432 and the first The two moving blocks 3431 are threadedly connected; the synchronous drive unit 344 is arranged between the two third drive structures 343, and the synchronous drive unit 344 is used to simultaneously drive the two third drive structures 343 to move. The synchronous drive unit 344 includes two driven wheels 3441, a transmission belt 3442 and a fourth rotation driver 3443. The two driven wheels 3441 are respectively connected to the two second screws 3432, and the two ends of the transmission belt 3442 are respectively mounted on the two driven wheels 3441. The fourth rotation driver 3443 is used to drive the transmission belt 3442 to rotate.
[0048] The tensioning structures 34 at both ends of the separation net 31 work simultaneously, the third rotation driver 3424 drives the double-headed screw 3423 to rotate, the double-headed screw 3423 drives the two first moving blocks 3422 to approach each other, the two first moving blocks 3422 drive the two clamping arms 341 to approach each other to clamp one end of the separation net 31, and then the synchronous driving unit 344 works, the fourth rotation driver 3443 drives the two driven wheels 3441 to rotate through the transmission belt 3442, the two driven wheels 3441 drive the two second screws 3432 to rotate, the two second screws 3432 respectively drive the two second moving blocks 3431 to move in the same direction along the axial direction of the two second screws 3432, the two second moving blocks 3431 drive the two second U-shaped plates 3421 to move, the two second U-shaped plates 3421 drive the clamping plates to move in the horizontal direction, so that the two ends of the separation net 31 move away from each other in the horizontal direction, thereby making the separation net 31 in a horizontal tensioned state.
[0049] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown: the tensioning structure 34 also includes two second elastic connection structures 345, the second elastic connection structure 345 is arranged between the second driving structure 342 and the third driving structure 343, the second elastic connection structure 345 includes a third U-shaped plate 3451 and two elastic support arms 3452, the third U-shaped plate 3451 is covered on the outside of the second U-shaped plate 3421, the two elastic support arms 3452 are respectively arranged at both ends of the third U-shaped plate 3451, and the two elastic support arms 3452 are respectively abutted against the two ends of the second U-shaped plate 3421.
[0050] The two tensioning structures 34 keep the separation net 31 in a tensioned state. Starch accumulates on the separation net 31, causing the middle part of the separation net 31 to sag downward. The force on both ends of the separation net 31 increases, which can easily cause the separation net 31 to break. By setting two second elastic connecting structures 345, when the middle part of the separation net 31 sags downward, the two ends of the separation net 31 are subjected to a force approaching each other, and the two elastic support arms 3452 located on the inner sides of the two ends of the separation net 31 contract, causing the two ends of the separation net 31 to approach each other, thereby absorbing the increased force on the two ends of the separation net 31 and preventing the separation net 31 from being torn.
[0051] Reference Figure 3 , Fig.10 and Fig.11As shown: the cleaning mechanism 2 also includes a vibration structure 23, which is arranged inside the placement structure 21. The vibration structure 23 includes two guide structures 231, a connecting plate 232 and a vibrator 233. The two guide structures 231 are respectively arranged on both sides of the placement frame 211. The guide structure 231 includes a first guide rod 2312, a first connecting block 2311 and two first springs 2313. The first guide rod 2312 is parallel to the placement frame 211, and the two ends of the first guide rod 2312 are respectively against the inner wall of the guide bin 212. Then, the first connecting block 2311 is connected to the placement rack 211, and the first connecting block 2311 is slidably connected to the first guide rod 2312, and the two first springs 2313 are respectively set on the two ends of the first guide rod 2312, and the two ends of the first spring 2313 are respectively abutted against the first connecting block 2311 and the inner wall of the guide bin 212, and the two ends of the connecting plate 232 are respectively slidably connected to the two first guide rods 2312, and the vibrator 233 is set on the outer wall of the guide bin 212, and the output end of the vibrator 233 is connected to the connecting plate 232.
[0052] The cut surfaces of adjacent potatoes are in contact with each other, and it is difficult for the flushing structure 22 to flush away the starch on the two cut surfaces, making it difficult to clean the potatoes. By setting the vibration structure 23, when the flushing structure 22 is flushing the potatoes, the vibrator 233 drives the connecting plate 232 to vibrate, and the connecting plate 232 moves along the axial direction of the two first guide rods 2312 under the action of the two first guide rods 2312. When the connecting plate 232 is away from the vibrator 233, the connecting plate 232 squeezes the first spring 2313, and the first spring 2313 drives the first connecting block 2311 to move along the first guide rod 2312, and the first connecting block 2311 drives the placement rack 211 to move, and the placement rack 211 drives the holding frame 1 to move. When the connecting plate 232 is close to the vibrator 233, the first spring 2313 rebounds and drives the first connecting block 2311 to move, and then drives the placement rack 211 to move, thereby realizing the vibration of the potatoes in the holding frame 1, so that the cut surfaces of adjacent potatoes are separated.

The fixed structure 24 has four fixed structures 24, and the four fixed structures 24 are respectively arranged on the four corners of the placement frame 211. The fixed structure 24 includes a right-angle clamping plate 241 and a lifting structure 242. The upper halves of the two inner walls of the right-angle clamping plate 241 are both provided with inclined surfaces. The lifting structure 242 is arranged at the lower end of the placement frame 211. The lifting structure includes a first U-shaped plate 2421, a first linear drive 2422 and a second guide rod 2423. The second U-shaped plate 3421 is connected to the placement frame 211. The first linear drive 2422 is installed on the first U-shaped plate 2421.

[0054] The placement rack 211 drives the holding frame 1 to vibrate, and the holding frame 1 is affected by its own inertia, and the holding frame 1 and the placement rack 211 may not maintain synchronous movement. By setting four fixed structures 24, the staff puts the holding frame 1 on the placement rack 211, and then the four fixed structures 24 work at the same time, and the first linear driver 2422 pushes the right-angle clamping plate 241 to rise. When the holding frame 1 is not in the middle of the four fixed structures 24, the two inclined surfaces of the right-angle clamping plate 241 respectively contact the two adjacent side walls of the holding frame 1, pushing the holding frame 1 to move along its length and width directions, thereby automatically adjusting the position of the holding frame 1, so that the holding frame 1 is in the middle of the four fixed structures 24, and the four right-angle clamping plates 241 can limit the relative sliding of the holding frame 1 and the placement rack 211, thereby realizing the synchronous movement of the holding frame 1 and the placement rack 211.
