Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of cleaning equipment, and in particular to a fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment. Background Art

[0002] Before processing fruit and vegetable products, since there are generally impurities such as soil, pesticides, and fertilizers remaining on the surfaces of fruits and vegetables, in order to ensure the safety and hygiene of subsequent fruit and vegetable products, the fruit and vegetable raw materials should be cleaned before processing. Among them, for fruit and vegetable raw materials with skins such as potatoes, tomatoes, and apples, since these fruit and vegetable raw materials all have relatively smooth and non-breakable skins, a large number of fruit and vegetable raw materials of the same type are usually put into the fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment for unified cleaning.

[0003] Currently, common fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment for cleaning fruit and vegetable raw materials with skins usually supports the fruit and vegetable raw materials by rotating rollers with cleaning cloths mounted on their surfaces, which have the effect of removing dirt and adsorbing dirt, after putting the fruit and vegetable raw materials into a container, and then sprays cleaning water onto the fruit and vegetable raw materials while the rotating rollers rotate to make the fruit and vegetable raw materials tumble, so as to clean the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0004] However, the cleaning effect of the above-mentioned fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment on fruit and vegetable raw materials is uneven. The fruit and vegetable raw materials close to the cleaning cloth often have a better cleaning effect. If you want the cleaning effect of all fruit and vegetable raw materials to meet the requirements, the number of fruit and vegetable raw materials for each fruit and vegetable cleaning should not be too large, or it is necessary to manually stir the fruit and vegetable raw materials during the cleaning process of the fruit and vegetable raw materials to make the cleaning effect of the fruit and vegetable raw materials more uniform. Both treatment methods will affect the efficiency of fruit and vegetable cleaning.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment with high cleaning efficiency and good effect. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This application provides a fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment, which can make the cleaning effect received by the fruit and vegetable raw materials more uniform, and at the same time can effectively improve the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0007] This application provides a fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment, adopting the following technical solutions:

[0008] A fruit and vegetable cleaning equipment includes a machine body, a cleaning device, and a spraying device;

[0009] The inside of the machine body has a cleaning space with an upward opening, and both the cleaning device and the spraying device are installed on the machine body;

[0010] The cleaning device includes a plurality of cleaning components, and the plurality of cleaning components are evenly distributed along the horizontal direction on the machine body;

[0011] The cleaning assembly includes a seat body, a rotating roller, a cleaning cloth, a first driving member, and a second driving member; the seat body is movably connected to the machine body in the vertical direction; the rotating roller is rotatably connected to the seat body and is located in the cleaning space. A relief groove for the rotating roller to be rotatably connected to the seat body is formed on one side of the machine body, and the rotation axis of the rotating roller is perpendicular to the distribution direction of the plurality of cleaning assemblies; the cleaning cloth is sleeved on the rotating roller, and a plurality of absorbent brush strips are evenly distributed on the outer side of the cleaning cloth; the first driving member is arranged on the seat body and is used to drive the rotating roller to rotate; the second driving member is arranged on the machine body and is used to drive the seat body to move;

[0012] The spraying device is arranged on the top of the machine body and above the cleaning device, and includes a plurality of spray pipes for spraying cleaning water downward, and the external pipeline of the spray pipe is communicated with a water source.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, by controlling the up and down movement of different seat bodies, a space with an upward opening can be formed by enclosing multiple rotating rollers in the cleaning space, and the fruit and vegetable raw materials are cleaned in this space, and the dirt can flow to the bottom of the cleaning space along with the water; at the same time, the distance between adjacent rotating rollers can be controlled to be adapted to the size of the fruit and vegetable raw materials, reducing the probability of the fruit and vegetable raw materials leaving through the space between adjacent cleaning cloths, and at the same time effectively improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth on the fruit and vegetable raw materials; and during the process of cleaning the fruit and vegetable raw materials, the movement of multiple seat bodies can make the fruit and vegetable raw materials constantly change positions, so that the cleaning effect received by the fruit and vegetable raw materials is more uniform, thereby effectively improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0014] Optionally, a decontamination device is further included, and the decontamination device is arranged in the cleaning space and below the rotating roller;

[0015] The decontamination device includes a decontamination plate; the decontamination plate has a plurality of extrusion grooves with upward openings, and the plurality of extrusion grooves are respectively aligned with the plurality of rotating rollers in the vertical direction; the decontamination plate is provided with drainage ports penetrating through the decontamination plate below the plurality of extrusion grooves;

[0016] When the seat body moves downward to the limit position, the corresponding rotating roller will enter the corresponding extrusion groove, and the corresponding cleaning cloth will be squeezed in the corresponding extrusion groove.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cleaning cloth adsorbs too much dirt and its cleaning effect on the fruit and vegetable raw materials decreases, controlling the rotating roller to move downward to the limit position can squeeze the cleaning cloth, so that the dirt is squeezed out along with the water absorbed by the cleaning cloth to restore the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth.

[0018] Optionally, the extrusion groove is flared upward.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient for the cleaning cloth to enter the extrusion groove, and at the same time, the extrusion cleaning effect on the cleaning cloth can be ensured, and it is convenient for the cleaned cleaning cloth to leave the extrusion groove along with the rotating roller.

[0020] Optionally, the decontamination device further includes a plurality of decontamination protrusions, and the plurality of decontamination protrusions are uniformly distributed on the groove wall of the extrusion groove.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after the rotating roller enters the extrusion groove movably, the plurality of decontamination protrusions can effectively improve the extrusion effect on the cleaning cloth; then, during the process of controlling the rotation of the rotating roller, the plurality of decontamination protrusions can further remove the dirt adsorbed on the cleaning cloth, thereby further improving the extrusion cleaning effect on the cleaning cloth.

[0022] Optionally, it further includes a sewage collection device, and the sewage collection device is arranged in the cleaning space and below the decontamination device;

[0023] The sewage collection device includes a sewage collection box and a filter plate for filtering dirt; the sewage collection box has a sewage collection space with an upward opening, the filter plate is arranged in the sewage collection space and divides the sewage collection space into upper and lower parts, and the water in the sewage collection space below the filter plate is used for the spraying device.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, it is possible to effectively collect the sewage generated during the cleaning process of the fruit and vegetable raw materials and the sewage generated during the extrusion cleaning of the cleaning cloth, which is convenient for the staff to process the sewage subsequently.

[0025] Optionally, the sewage collection device further includes a third driving member for driving the sewage collection box to move vertically;

[0026] When the sewage collection box moves upward to the limit position, a plurality of the extrusion grooves are all located in the sewage collection space and communicate with the sewage collection space.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sewage collection box moves upward to the limit position and the rotating roller enters the extrusion groove movably, at this time, the cleaning cloth can complete multiple extrusion cleanings in a state of being immersed in the water in the sewage collection space, thereby further improving the extrusion cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth; at the same time, during this process, the dirt in the extrusion groove is not easy to form a blockage at the sewage discharge port, and if a blockage is formed, after the subsequent sewage collection box moves downward, the tendency of the water in the extrusion groove to flow out through the sewage discharge port also helps to clear the blockage.

[0028] Optionally, the filter plate is fixedly connected to the machine body, and during the movement of the sewage collection box, the filter plate remains in the sewage collection space.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the sewage collecting box can drive the water under the filter plate to move upward and pass through itself during the upward movement, thereby clearing itself and allowing the filter plate to maintain its filtering effect on sewage.

[0030] Optionally, the decontamination plate is provided with two movable parts at a position close to the bottom of the extrusion groove, and the movable parts are movably connected to the body;

[0031] The movable part has restrictions in its movement relative to the body; when the two movable parts move toward each other to the extreme position under the action of their own gravity, a drainage groove is formed between the two movable parts, and a drainage port is formed between the movable part and the decontamination plate, and the position of the drainage port is higher than the position of the drainage groove; when the dirt collecting box moves upward to the extreme position, when the two movable parts move away from each other to the extreme position under the action of buoyancy, the movable parts contact and resist the decontamination plate, and the drainage groove expands.

[0032] By adopting the above technical scheme, during the process of washing the fruit and vegetable raw materials, sewage can be discharged from the drain outlet and the sewage outlet respectively. If the sewage outlet is blocked by dirt, the dirt will be concentrated in the position close to the sewage outlet in the extrusion groove, while the sewage can still be discharged through the drain outlet, thereby effectively reducing the impact of dirt blockage on the washing of fruit and vegetable raw materials; during the process of squeezing and cleaning the cleaning cloth, the movable part can close the drain outlet and expand the sewage outlet under the action of buoyancy, thereby effectively clearing the blockage and facilitating the discharge of dirt squeezed out during the squeezing and cleaning process of the cleaning cloth.

[0033] Optionally, a cover plate is rotatably mounted on the machine body, and a material port is provided on one side of the top of the machine body for fruit and vegetable raw materials to enter and exit the cleaning space;

[0034] When the cover plate rotates to the extreme position in the direction close to the machine body, the cover plate covers the material port and the opening at the top of the cleaning space at the same time; after the cover plate rotates in the direction away from the machine body, the cover plate is used to guide the fruit and vegetable raw materials to enter and exit the cleaning space through the material port.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, different effects can be achieved by controlling the cover plate to rotate to different positions, which can reduce the probability of sewage splashing or fruit and vegetable raw materials flying out during the cleaning process, and can facilitate the staff to load and unload the fruit and vegetable raw materials into the cleaning space.

[0036] Optionally, both sides of the machine body are provided with sewage collecting grooves opening upwards, for collecting sewage leaving the machine body through the clearance grooves.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, the probability that sewage splashes through the relief groove and affects the surrounding environment can be effectively reduced.

[0038] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0039] 1. It can make the cleaning effect on fruit and vegetable raw materials more uniform, and at the same time can effectively improve the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of fruit and vegetable raw materials;

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0049] The following will further elaborate on this application in conjunction with the attached Figures 1-5 drawings.

[0050] An embodiment of this application discloses a fruit and vegetable cleaning device, which is used to clean a large number of peeled fruit and vegetable raw materials of the same type, and has a high cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect on the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0051] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the fruit and vegetable cleaning device includes a machine body 1, a cleaning device 2, a spraying device 3, a decontamination device 4 and a sewage collection device 5. Among them, the machine body 1 provides a place for cleaning the fruit and vegetable raw materials and serves as a carrier for installing other devices; the cleaning device 2 and the spraying device 3 cooperate to clean the fruit and vegetable raw materials; the decontamination device 4 is used to enable the cleaning device 2 to maintain a high cleaning effect on the fruit and vegetable raw materials; the sewage collection device 5 is used to collect the sewage generated during the use of the fruit and vegetable cleaning device.

[0052] The machine body 1 is integrally in a cuboid structure, which maintains a vertical position state in the height direction, and has a cleaning space 11 with an upward opening inside, for the fruit and vegetable raw materials to be cleaned in the cleaning space 11. In this embodiment, it is preferred that the shape of the cleaning space 11 is also a cuboid, and it is preferred that the length direction of the cleaning space 11 is parallel to the length direction of the machine body 1 and the width direction of the cleaning space 11 is parallel to the width direction of the machine body 1.

[0053] On one side of the machine body 1 in the length direction, a material inlet 12 for the fruit and vegetable raw materials to enter and exit the cleaning space 11 is provided at the top of itself, which is convenient for the staff to put the fruit and vegetable raw materials into the cleaning space 11 and take the fruit and vegetable raw materials out of the cleaning space 11.

[0054] Correspondingly, a cover plate 6 is also rotatably installed on the top of the machine body 1. One end of the cover plate 6 in the length direction is rotatably connected to the position of the machine body 1 at the bottom of the material inlet 12, and its rotation axis is parallel to its own width direction and parallel to the width direction of the machine body 1.

[0055] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , there are limitations during the rotation of the cover plate 6 relative to the machine body 1. When the cover plate 6 rotates towards the opening of the cleaning space 11 to the limit position, the cover plate 6 can cover both the opening of the cleaning space 11 and the material inlet 12 at the same time, so as to facilitate the completion of the cleaning of the fruit and vegetable raw materials in the cleaning space 11, and at the same time, it can reduce the probability of sewage splashing during the cleaning of the fruit and vegetable raw materials and the probability of the fruit and vegetable raw materials leaving the cleaning space 11.

[0056] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4, when the cover plate 6 rotates to the limit position in the direction away from the opening of the cleaning space 11, the surface of the top of the cover plate 6 close to the material inlet 12 can be used to guide the fruit and vegetable raw materials to move obliquely downward in the direction away from the machine body 1, facilitating the discharging of the fruit and vegetable raw materials that leave the cleaning space 11 through the material inlet 12; when the cover plate 6 rotates to a certain extent in the direction away from the opening of the cleaning space 11, the surface of the top of the cover plate 6 close to the material inlet 12 can be used to guide the fruit and vegetable raw materials to move obliquely downward in the direction close to the machine body 1, facilitating the fruit and vegetable raw materials to enter the cleaning space 11 through the material inlet 12. In this embodiment, it is preferred that the cover plate 6 can be fixed relative to the machine body 1 when rotating to the above three position states; in other embodiments, the rotation of the cover plate 6 can also be controlled by a servo motor; since the cover plate 6 with the above functions is a common prior art, it will not be elaborated here, and the relevant structures are omitted in the drawings.

[0057] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the cleaning device 2 includes a plurality of cleaning components, the cleaning components are installed on the machine body 1, and the plurality of cleaning components are equidistantly distributed on the machine body 1 along the length direction of the machine body 1.

[0058] The cleaning component includes a seat body 21, a rotating roller 23, a cleaning cloth 24, a first driving member 22 and a second driving member 25. In this embodiment, it is preferred that both the seat body 21 and the first driving member 22 include two parts, and the two parts are respectively located on both sides of the machine body 1 in the width direction.

[0059] On both sides of the bottom of the machine body 1 in its own width direction, there are convex platforms extending outward. The two parts of the first driving member 22 are respectively fixedly installed on the tops of the two convex platforms. The two parts of the seat body 21 are respectively installed on the tops of the two parts of the first driving member 22, and the first driving member 22 is used to drive the seat body 21 to move relative to the machine body 1 in a direction parallel to the height direction of the machine body 1. In this embodiment, it is preferred that the first driving member 22 is a servo cylinder, and the seat body 21 is fixedly installed at the end of the piston rod of the first driving member 22; since the servo cylinder is a common prior art, it will not be elaborated here, and it is only briefly shown in the drawings.

[0060] The rotating roller 23 is integrally in a cylindrical structure, and rod bodies extend outward at both ends in the axial direction of the rotating roller 23; on both sides of the machine body 1 in the width direction, there are a plurality of relief grooves 13 communicating with the cleaning space 11. The relief grooves 13 extend along the height direction of the machine body 1. The plurality of relief grooves 13 on both sides correspond one by one and are aligned in the width direction of the machine body 1. The plurality of relief grooves 13 on the same side correspond one by one to the plurality of rotating rollers 23; the main body of the rotating roller 23 is located in the cleaning space 11, and its rod body passes through the corresponding relief groove 13 and is rotatably connected to a part adjacent to the seat body 21, so that the rotating roller 23 can rotate relative to the corresponding seat body 21, and its rotation axis coincides with its own axis and is parallel to the width direction of the machine body 1.

[0061] The second driving member 25 is fixedly installed on one side of a part of the seat body 21 away from the corresponding rotating roller 23, and is used to drive the rotating roller 23 to rotate relative to the seat body 21. In this embodiment, it is preferred that the second driving member 25 is a servo motor; since the servo motor is a common prior art, it will not be elaborated here, and it is only briefly shown in the drawings.

[0062] The cleaning cloth 24 is sleeved and installed on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller 23, and is detachably connected to the rotating roller 23, which is convenient for the staff to disassemble and replace the cleaning cloth 24 according to the usage condition of the cleaning cloth 24. The cleaning cloth 24 is integrally in a cylindrical structure, and a plurality of water-absorbing brush strips are evenly distributed on the outer side of the circumferential surface thereof, and the brush strips can adsorb the dirt on the surface of the fruit and vegetable raw materials, and the cleaning cloth 24 cleans the fruit and vegetable raw materials through the plurality of brush strips. In this embodiment, since the above-mentioned cleaning cloth 24 is a common prior art, it will not be elaborated here, and it is only briefly shown in the drawings.

[0063] The strokes of the plurality of first driving members 22 for driving the corresponding seat bodies 21 to move are the same. When the first driving member 22 drives the seat body 21 to move upward to the limit position, the position of the axis of the corresponding rotating roller 23 will be higher than the position of the axis of rotation of the cover plate 6 at this time; when the first driving member 22 drives the seat body 21 to move downward to the limit position, the position of the axis of the corresponding rotating roller 23 will be lower than the position of the axis of rotation of the cover plate 6 at this time.

[0064] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , when it is necessary to put the fruit and vegetable raw materials into the cleaning space 11 through the material port 12, control the plurality of seat bodies 21 to move relative to the machine body 1, so that the plurality of rotating rollers 23 are distributed along an inclined downward trajectory in a direction away from the material port 12. At this time, the axis of the rotating roller 23 closest to the material port 12 is close to the axis of rotation of the cover plate 6, and the distance between adjacent cleaning cloths 24 is smaller than the minimum size of the fruit and vegetable raw materials, which is convenient for the fruit and vegetable raw materials to enter the cleaning space 11 through the material port 12 and then be supported by the plurality of rotating rollers 23. At the same time, the plurality of rotating rollers 23 rotate to drive the fruit and vegetable raw materials entering the cleaning space 11 to move in a direction away from the material port 12, reducing the damage rate of the fruit and vegetable raw materials during the feeding process, and at the same time improving the feeding efficiency of the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0065] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, when the fruit and vegetable raw materials are being cleaned in the cleaning space 11, control the activities of multiple seat bodies 21 relative to the machine body 1, so that the multiple rotating rollers 23 repeatedly switch between two states of being distributed along an arc-shaped trajectory upward from the arc opening and being distributed along an arc-shaped trajectory downward from the arc opening, while keeping the distance between adjacent cleaning cloths 24 smaller than the minimum size of the fruit and vegetable raw materials, enabling the fruit and vegetable raw materials to continuously change positions above the multiple rotating rollers 23 during this process, effectively improving the evenness of the cleaning of the fruit and vegetable raw materials by the cleaning cloths 24, and thus ensuring the cleaning effect of the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0066] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , when it is necessary to send the fruit and vegetable raw materials out of the cleaning space 11 through the material opening 12, control the activities of multiple seat bodies 21 relative to the machine body 1, so that the multiple rotating rollers 23 are distributed along an inclined downward trajectory in the direction close to the material opening 12. At this time, the axis of the rotating roller 23 closest to the material opening 12 is close to the rotation axis of the cover plate 6, and at the same time, the distance between adjacent cleaning cloths 24 is smaller than the minimum size of the fruit and vegetable raw materials, facilitating the fruit and vegetable raw materials to pass above the multiple rotating rollers 23 under the action of their own gravity and the rotation drive of the multiple rotating rollers 23 and then leave the cleaning space 11 through the material opening 12, while reducing the damage rate of the fruit and vegetable raw materials during the feeding process.

[0067] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the spraying device 3 includes multiple spray pipes 31. The spray pipes 31 are installed on the top of the machine body 1 and are located in the cleaning space 11. The multiple spray pipes 31 are kept above the rotating rollers 23, and the spray pipes 31 are externally connected with pipes to communicate with the water source of the cleaning water, facilitating the spray pipes 31 to take the cleaning water from the water source to spray and clean the fruit and vegetable raw materials. In this embodiment, preferably, a single spray pipe 31 is installed along the direction parallel to the width direction of the machine body 1, and multiple spray pipes 31 are equally spaced along the length direction of the machine body 1. At this time, the multiple spray pipes 31 can effectively prevent the fruit and vegetable raw materials from leaving the cleaning space 11 during the cleaning process at the opening of the cleaning space 11; and preferably, each spray pipe 31 has multiple nozzles, and the cleaning water is sprayed downward through the nozzles; since the spray pipe 31 with the above functions is a common existing technology, it will not be elaborated here, and it is only briefly shown in the drawings and the pipes are omitted from the expression.

[0068] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In the process of cleaning the fruit and vegetable raw materials, the spray device 3 and the cleaning device 2 will operate simultaneously. When the adjacent second driving members 25 drive the corresponding rotating rollers 23 to rotate in the same direction, the fruit and vegetable raw materials that are in contact with the corresponding two adjacent cleaning cloths 24 can be driven to flip, so as to improve the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the fruit and vegetable raw materials. In this embodiment, it is preferred that the spray device 3 and the cleaning device 2 are both controlled by a special control device. Since the control device with the above functions is a common prior art, it will not be described in detail here, and it is omitted in the drawings.

[0069] Furthermore, in order to reduce the probability that sewage generated during the cleaning process of fruit and vegetable raw materials leaves the cleaning space 11 through the give way groove 13 and causes the environment around the body 1 to be polluted, it is preferred that the bosses on both sides of the body 1 are provided with sewage collecting grooves 14 opening upward for collecting sewage, and the sewage collecting grooves 14 are located on the side of the adjacent first driving member 22 away from the body 1.

[0070] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The decontamination device 4 includes a decontamination plate 41 , a plurality of decontamination protrusions 42 and a plurality of movable parts 43 .

[0071] The decontamination plate 41 is a rectangular plate-shaped structure as a whole, which is fixedly installed on the body 1. It is located in the cleaning space 11 and below the rotating roller 23. The decontamination plate 41 divides the cleaning space 11 into two upper and lower spaces, and its length direction is parallel to the length direction of the body 1 and its width direction is parallel to the width direction of the body 1.

[0072] The decontamination plate 41 is provided with a plurality of extrusion grooves 411, which correspond to the plurality of rotating rollers 23 one by one, and the rotating rollers 23 are aligned with the corresponding extrusion grooves 411 in the vertical direction. The extrusion grooves 411 allow the space above the decontamination plate 41 to communicate with the space below, and the extrusion grooves 411 are expanded upward; the top of the decontamination plate 41 has a plurality of arc-shaped surfaces, which can guide the sewage to flow toward the direction close to the adjacent extrusion grooves 411.

[0073] The plurality of decontamination protrusions 42 are evenly distributed on the groove walls on both sides of the plurality of extrusion grooves 411 , and the ends of the decontamination protrusions 42 have a ball head structure.

[0074] When the rotating roller 23 moves downward to the extreme position, it can drive the corresponding cleaning cloth 24 to enter the corresponding extrusion groove 411. During the process of the cleaning cloth 24 entering the extrusion groove 411 downward, it can be gradually squeezed by the extrusion groove 411, so that the water sucked by the brush strip is gradually squeezed out, and the dirt absorbed by the brush strip can leave with the squeezed water, so that the sewage can flow into the space below the decontamination plate 41;

[0075] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2After the cleaning cloth 24 enters the extrusion groove 411, the corresponding plurality of decontamination protrusions 42 can also exert an extrusion effect on the cleaning cloth 24. At this time, control the second driving member 25 to drive the rotating roller 23 to rotate, and the cleaning cloth 24 can be driven to rotate in the extrusion groove 411 along with the rotating roller 23, thereby further improving the extrusion effect of the decontamination protrusions 42 on the cleaning cloth 24, facilitating the cleaning cloth 24 to squeeze out the sewage, realizing its own cleaning, and restoring its cleaning effect on the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0076] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 5 Below the decontamination plate 41, two movable members 43 are installed around the opening below each extrusion groove 411. The movable member 43 is integrally in an arc-shaped sheet structure, which is movably connected to the machine body 1, and its moving direction is the same as its arc track. In this embodiment, preferably, the two movable members 43 corresponding to the same extrusion groove 411 are symmetrically distributed with respect to the extrusion groove 411, and the arc opening of the arc track of the movable member 43 is inclined upward toward the direction close to the other movable member 43.

[0077] A sewage discharge port 7 for discharging sewage is formed between the bottoms of the corresponding two movable members 43, and there are limitations during the process of the movable member 43 moving relative to the machine body 1. When the movable member 43 moves to the extreme position away from the decontamination plate 41, a water discharge port 8 for discharging water is further formed between the movable member 43 and the decontamination plate 41. The position of the water discharge port 8 is higher than the position of the sewage discharge port 7, and at this time, the size of the sewage discharge port 7 is the smallest; when the movable member 43 moves to the extreme position close to the decontamination plate 41, the size of the sewage discharge port 7 is the largest.

[0078] The sewage collection device 5 is installed in the cleaning space 11 and is located below the decontamination plate 41, and includes a sewage collection box 51, a filter plate 52, and a third driving member 53.

[0079] The sewage collection box 51 is integrally in a cuboid structure, and has a sewage collection space 511 with an opening upward for collecting sewage. Its length direction is parallel to the length direction of the machine body 1 and its width direction is parallel to the width direction of the machine body 1. In this embodiment, preferably, the length dimension of the sewage collection box 51 is equal to the length dimension of the cleaning space 11, and the width dimension of the sewage collection box 51 is equal to the width dimension of the cleaning space 11.

[0080] The third driving member 53 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the machine body 1 and is located below the sewage collection box 51, and is used to drive the sewage collection box 51 to move in the vertical direction. In this embodiment, preferably, the third driving member 53 is a servo cylinder.

[0081] The filter plate 52 is integrally in a rectangular plate structure, which can intercept the dirty particles in the sewage while allowing water to pass through. In this embodiment, since the filter plate 52 with the above functions is a common prior art, it will not be elaborated here, and it is only briefly shown in the drawings.

[0082] The filter plate 52 is fixedly connected to the body 1. It is located in the sewage collection space 511 and divides the sewage collection space 511 into two upper and lower spaces. Its length direction is parallel to the length direction of the sewage collection box 51 and its width direction is parallel to the width direction of the sewage collection box 51.

[0083] After the sewage enters the sewage collection space 511, the dirty particles in the sewage will be located above the filter plate 52, and the water in the sewage collection space 511 below the filter plate 52 can be reused for cleaning fruit and vegetable raw materials. Therefore, a pipeline is externally connected to the sewage collection box 51 for the spraying device 3 to take the water below the filter plate 52. In this embodiment, since the method for the spraying device 3 to take the water below the filter plate 52 is a common existing technology, it will not be elaborated here, and the relevant structures are omitted in the drawings.

[0084] During the process of the third driving member 53 driving the sewage collection box 51 to move, there are limitations, and during this process, the filter plate 52 remains located in the sewage collection space 511. When the sewage collection box 51 moves upward to the limit position, at this time, the sewage collection box 51 contacts and abuts against the decontamination plate 41, and the extrusion groove 411 can communicate with the sewage collection space 511 through the sewage discharge port 7 and the drain port 8, and most of the space of the extrusion groove 411 will be located in the sewage collection space 511; when the sewage collection box 51 moves downward to the limit position, at this time, there is a certain distance between the extrusion groove 411 and the sewage collection space 511.

[0085] Furthermore, preferably, the movable member 43 has buoyancy and can float on the surface of the sewage. In this embodiment, since the material for enabling the movable member 43 to have the above functions is a common existing technology, the material of the movable member 43 is not further limited here.

[0086] When the sewage collection box 51 moves downward to the limit position, the movable member 43 will move to the limit position and remain in the direction away from the decontamination plate 41 under its own gravity; at this time, the sewage can be preferentially discharged through the sewage discharge port 7. If the sewage discharge port 7 is blocked by dirt, the dirt will accumulate at a position close to the sewage discharge port 7, and at the same time, the water in the sewage can be discharged through the two drain ports 8.

[0087] When the sewage collection box 51 moves upward to the limit position, the movable member 43 will be located in the sewage collection space 511. The sewage above the filter plate 52 in the sewage collection space 511 will contact the movable member 43, and the movable member 43 will move to the limit position and remain in the direction close to the decontamination member under the buoyancy force, clearing the blockage at the sewage discharge port 7 and reducing the probability of the sewage discharge port 7 being blocked, and enabling the cleaning cloth 24 to complete the extrusion cleaning in a state of being completely immersed or partially immersed in water, improving the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency of the cleaning cloth.

[0088] Meanwhile, during the process that the third driving member 53 drives the sewage collection box 51 to move upward, it can drive the water below the filter plate 52 to move through the filter plate 52 to the upper side of the filter plate 52, so as to achieve the effect of unclogging the filter plate 52, which is convenient for the filter plate 52 to continue to filter the sewage collected in the sewage collection space 511 subsequently.

[0089] The implementation principle of a fruit and vegetable cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0090] During the process that the fruit and vegetable raw materials are cleaned in the cleaning space 11, the spraying device 3 will keep spraying cleaning water on the fruit and vegetable raw materials. At the same time, the cleaning device 2 will clean the surfaces of the fruit and vegetable raw materials through a plurality of rotating cleaning cloths 24. At the same time, the up and down movement of the plurality of rotating rollers 23 can continuously change the positions of the fruit and vegetable raw materials in the cleaning space 11, so that the cleaning effects received by the fruit and vegetable raw materials in the cleaning space 11 are more uniform, improving the cleaning effect of the fruit and vegetable raw materials while effectively improving the cleaning effect on the fruit and vegetable raw materials;

[0091] When the cleaning effect of the cleaning cloth 24 decreases due to dirt adhesion after cleaning the fruit and vegetable raw materials, control the first driving member 22 to drive the rotating roller 23 to move downward into the extrusion groove 411, and at the same time control the third driving member 53 to drive the sewage collection box 51 to move upward to the limit position, so that the cleaning cloth 24 enters the extrusion groove 411 and is completely immersed or partially immersed in the water in the sewage collection space 511. Then control the second driving member 25 to drive the rotating roller 23 to rotate. During the process that the cleaning cloth 24 rotates with the rotating roller 23, it will contact the plurality of decontamination protrusions 42 multiple times, so as to squeeze out the water multiple times, facilitating the dirt adsorbed by the cleaning cloth 24 to leave with the water, and completing the cleaning of the cleaning cloth 24 to restore its cleaning effect on the fruit and vegetable raw materials.

[0092] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereby. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
