[0002] In the field of modern agriculture, tuber fruits and vegetables, as important food and cash crops, their large-scale cultivation has become an important part of agricultural production. Tuber fruits and vegetables refer to a type of plant with underground swollen tubers, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas), taro, yams, etc. Taking potatoes as an example, when they are dug out of the soil after maturity, their surfaces will inevitably be attached with a large amount of impurities such as soil, stones, and root residues. Thoroughly cleaning the harvested tuber fruits and vegetables to remove surface impurities is a key step to ensure the quality of fruits and vegetables, improve processing efficiency, and ensure food safety.

[0003] As described in the invention with the application number CN201811474187.3, the existing fruit and vegetable processing device slowly conveys fruits and vegetables to the washing mechanism by a conveyor belt, the brush washes the periphery of the fruits and vegetables, and then the washed fruits and vegetables fall into the cleaning tank; the cleaning device is filled with clean water, the stirring component stirs and washes the fruits and vegetables in the cleaning tank, and then the pushing component pushes the washed fruits and vegetables to the sorting device for multi-level sorting.

[0004] In view of the above related technologies, fruits and vegetables can be batch cleaned. However, in the actual cleaning process, it is found that potatoes themselves have some concave parts, and the impurities in the concave parts are not easy to remove. When processing potatoes in batches, each potato cannot be washed thoroughly, and many potatoes need to be repeatedly rewashed, and the cleaning quality needs to be further improved.

The coordinated design of the arc-shaped baffle and the first partition enables the cleaning chamber to be connected to the external water source at a specific position to ensure the water supply during the cleaning process. The design of this independent cleaning chamber can perform more detailed cleaning on individual fruits and vegetables. Compared with batch cleaning in the prior art, it can effectively improve the cleaning effect of the sunken parts of fruits and vegetables, reduce repeated rework and cleaning, and improve the cleaning quality.

[0014] Optionally, it further includes a transfer mechanism installed on the frame, and the transfer mechanism includes:

[0015] A second rotating drum, the second rotating drum and the first rotating drum are arranged side by side, and the second rotating drum and the first rotating drum rotate synchronously and in the same direction;

[0016] A plurality of second baffles, wherein the second baffles are spaced apart from each other along the outer circumference of the second drum, and the second baffles correspond to the first baffles one by one;

[0017] The material receiving pocket is installed between two adjacent second partitions and only accommodates one fruit or vegetable. When the distance between the first partition and the second partition is the smallest, the material receiving port faces the material receiving pocket, and the fruit or vegetable falls into the cleaning chamber as the second rotating drum rotates.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the transfer mechanism realizes the orderly transfer of fruits and vegetables from the receiving plate to the cleaning chamber; through the cooperation of the second rotating drum, the second partition and the receiving bag, the fruits and vegetables leaving the receiving plate are arranged in order and fall into the cleaning chamber in sequence, thereby ensuring the order and stability of the fruits and vegetables entering the cleaning chamber, so that each cleaning chamber can accurately receive fruits and vegetables, further improving the controllability and efficiency of the cleaning process, ensuring that each fruit and vegetable can enter the corresponding cleaning chamber for cleaning, and improving the overall cleaning effect.

[0019] Optionally, two adjacent first partitions are provided with a plurality of cleaning chambers correspondingly along their length direction, the two adjacent cleaning chambers are separated by a partition plate, and the material receiving pockets are provided correspondingly along the length direction of the second partition.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple cleaning chambers are set in the length direction of the first partition, which increases the number of fruits and vegetables that can be cleaned at the same time and improves the cleaning efficiency of the device; at the same time, the partition separates the cleaning chambers to ensure the independence of each cleaning chamber, avoiding mutual interference between fruits and vegetables during the cleaning process. The corresponding setting of the receiving pocket ensures that fruits and vegetables can accurately fall into each cleaning chamber, further optimizing the structure and function of the device, so that the device can increase the cleaning volume per unit time while ensuring the cleaning quality.

[0021] Optionally, it also includes a movable rod installed in the cleaning chamber, and a driving assembly for driving the movable rod to move in a circle, the bristles are located on the movable rod, the movable rod passes through the partition plate, and the partition plate rotates along with the rotation of the movable rod.

The movable rod is moved in a circle through the meshing transmission of the guide gear and the driven gear, and the structure is compact and the transmission is stable. During the rotation of the first rotating drum, the meshing of the driven gear and the guide gear ensures the synchronization and regularity of the movement of the movable rod, so that the movable rod can clean the fruits and vegetables in the cleaning chamber according to the predetermined trajectory, thereby improving the automation degree and cleaning efficiency of the device.

[0025] Optionally, two movable rods are provided between two adjacent first partitions, an adjustment component for adjusting the distance between the two movable rods is provided on the blocking plate, and a clearance groove for the movable rod to move is provided on the partition plate.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the two movable rods are set to further enhance the cleaning effect. The fruits and vegetables can be cleaned through different movement trajectories and angles, which can more comprehensively cover the surface of the fruits and vegetables. The setting of the adjustment component can adjust the distance between the two movable rods according to the size of different fruits and vegetables, improve the versatility and adaptability of the device, and can meet the cleaning needs of fruits and vegetables of various sizes. The partition plate is provided with a clearance groove to ensure the smoothness of the movable rod during the rotation process, avoid interference with the partition plate, and ensure the normal operation of the device.

[0027] Optionally, the adjustment component includes:

[0028] The adjusting block is slidably mounted on the blocking plate, and one end of the movable rod is fixedly connected to the adjusting block;

[0029] An elastic member connected to the adjusting block;

[0030] A pressure rod is threadedly mounted on the blocking plate, one end of which contacts the side wall of the movable rod away from the elastic member, and is used to drive the movable rod to squeeze the elastic member.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the degree of compression of the movable rod on the elastic member can be changed by adjusting the pressure rod, thereby adjusting the distance between the two movable rods; this allows users to flexibly adjust the distance between the movable rods according to actual needs, thereby improving the practicality and flexibility of the device.

[0032] Optionally, the pushing assembly includes a conveyor belt and a push plate installed on the conveyor belt, and the push plate slides in contact with the surface of the receiving plate as the conveyor belt is conveyed.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the pushing assembly composed of the conveyor belt and the push plate has a simple and effective structure. The transmission of the conveyor belt drives the push plate to move, and the push plate slides in contact with the surface of the receiving plate, so that the fruits and vegetables falling into the cleaning section of the receiving plate can be pushed to the cleaning mechanism smoothly and reliably, thereby improving the automation degree and working efficiency of the device.

[0034] Optionally, the receiving plate further includes a screening section, wherein the screening section is provided with discharge troughs at intervals, wherein one discharge trough is only for one fruit or vegetable to pass through, and the discharge trough gradually increases along the length direction of the receiving plate, and a cleaning mechanism corresponds to the lower side of the discharge trough.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solutions, the design of the discharge chute in the screening section enables fruits and vegetables to be output orderly in a single form, and each discharge chute only allows one fruit or vegetable to pass through, ensuring the independence and uniformity of fruits and vegetables during the subsequent cleaning process. The discharge chute gradually increases along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt, which can screen fruits and vegetables of different sizes.

[0036] Optionally, a fixed cylinder is coaxially sleeved on the first rotating cylinder. The fixed cylinder is fixedly installed on the frame. The fixed cylinder is sequentially provided with a material receiving part, a cleaning part, a drying part, and a discharging part along the circumferential direction. The arc opening of the arc-shaped baffle faces the cleaning part. A water inlet pipe is arranged at the cleaning part of the fixed cylinder. A plurality of water inlet pipes are arranged at intervals along the cleaning part. A first water inlet hole for communicating with the water inlet pipe is opened on the outer peripheral side of the fixed cylinder. A second water inlet hole is opened on the first rotating cylinder. As the first rotating cylinder rotates, a communication relationship is formed between the first water inlet hole and the second water inlet hole.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solutions, the sleeved design of the fixed cylinder and the first rotating cylinder and the setting of each functional part on the fixed cylinder integrate multiple functions such as material receiving, cleaning, drying, and discharging in the cleaning mechanism, improving the integration degree and automation degree of the device. The arc opening of the arc-shaped baffle faces the cleaning part, ensuring that the cleaning cavity is connected to the water source at the cleaning part position and guaranteeing the water source supply during the cleaning process. The cooperative design of the water inlet pipe and the first and second water inlet holes enables the cleaning water to accurately enter the cleaning cavity, providing a stable water source for the cleaning process. Multiple water inlet pipes can increase the water supply volume, ensuring that each cleaning cavity can obtain sufficient water source, and can gradually increase the water volume in the cleaning cavity, enabling the potatoes to be first wetted and scrubbed, and then rinsed with different water volumes, further improving the cleaning effect and meeting the requirements of large-scale production.

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

[0039] 1. By setting independent cleaning cavities and structures such as brush hairs and movable rods in the cleaning cavities, the device can independently and carefully clean individual fruits and vegetables. Compared with the batch cleaning method in the prior art, the independent cleaning cavities can prevent fruits and vegetables from piling up and colliding with each other, enabling the brush hairs to fully contact the surface of the fruits and vegetables, especially the difficult-to-clean parts such as the concave parts, effectively improving the cleaning effect on various parts of the fruits and vegetables, reducing impurity residues, reducing the probability of repeated rework cleaning, and ensuring that each fruit or vegetable can be cleaned with high quality.

[0040] 2. The cleaning section and the screening section of the receiving plate conduct preliminary processing and size screening of fruits and vegetables. Through the feeding section, cleaning section, drying section, and discharging section sequentially arranged on the fixed cylinder, the one-stop completion of the fruit and vegetable processing process is realized. The integrated design not only saves space and equipment costs, but also reduces the transfer time of fruits and vegetables between different processing links, improving the overall processing efficiency.

Detailed implementation manners

[0050] The following is a further detailed description of the present application in conjunction with the attached Figure 1 - attached Figure 8 drawings.

[0051] Referring to Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present application discloses a fruit and vegetable processing device, including a frame 100, a receiving plate 200, a spraying assembly 300, a pushing assembly 400, a cleaning mechanism 500, a transfer mechanism 600, etc. Potatoes are used as the cleaning object for the fruits and vegetables in the embodiment of the present application. The whole device is installed on the frame 100. The frame 100 serves as the support frame of the whole device and provides a stable installation foundation for each component. The receiving plate 200 is horizontally installed on the frame 100. The receiving plate 200 is composed of a cleaning section 210 and a screening section 220. The cleaning section 210 is provided with a feeding section 211 for fruits and vegetables to enter the receiving plate 200. The feeding section 211 is inclined downward, and the lower end of the feeding section 211 is connected to the receiving plate 200.

[0052] Referring to Figure 2, a sewage discharge groove 212 is formed on the upper surface of the cleaning section 210. The sewage discharge groove 212 is communicated with a sewage discharge diversion channel 213 connected to the side wall of the receiving plate 200. The sewage discharge diversion channel 213 is connected with a sewage discharge pipe 214 to form a sewage discharge part. The receiving section is surrounded by a water baffle 215 around its circumference to prevent water from overflowing from the circumference of the receiving section. A material baffle 216 is connected to the sewage discharge diversion channel 213 facing the receiving plate 200. There is a gap for sewage and impurities to pass through between the lower end of the material baffle 216 and the bottom wall of the sewage discharge diversion channel 213. When the potatoes fall from the feeding section 211 onto the receiving plate 200, the potatoes are blocked by the water baffle 215 and the material baffle 216, so that the potatoes can only be spread on the receiving plate 200. Under normal circumstances, the potatoes are laid flat on the receiving plate 200.

[0053] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , during the cleaning process, the spraying assembly 300 is located above the cleaning section 210. The water sprayed by the spraying assembly 300 can preliminarily clean the fruits and vegetables on the cleaning section 210. The sewage and other impurities generated by the cleaning are discharged from the device through the sewage discharge groove 212 and the sewage discharge diversion channel 213. The spraying assembly 300 includes a spraying pipe 310 and nozzles 320 installed on the spraying pipe 310. The spraying pipe 310 is filled with pressurized water and sprays from the nozzles 320 onto the potatoes on the receiving plate 200.

[0054] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the pushing assembly 400 is installed on the frame 100 and includes a conveyor belt 410 and a pushing plate 420 installed on the conveyor belt 410. There are two conveyor belts 410 which rotate synchronously. The pushing plate 420 is installed between the two conveyor belts 410 and is arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 410. When the conveyor belt 410 is driven, the pushing plate 420 is driven to move. The pushing plate 420 is in sliding contact with the surface of the receiving plate 200. After the potatoes fall into the cleaning section 210 of the receiving plate 200, the pushing plate 420 pushes the potatoes towards the screening section 220. The spraying assembly 300 is located above part of the conveyor belt 410. There is a gap for the spraying water to pass through between the two conveyor belts 410. During the process of the pushing plate 420 pushing the potatoes to move, the potatoes move or roll on the receiving plate 200, and the spraying assembly 300 conducts preliminary spraying and cleaning on the potatoes.

[0055] Refer to Figure 3 , multiple discharge slots 221 are arranged at intervals in the screening section 220. Only one fruit or vegetable can pass through one discharge slot 221. The multiple discharge slots 221 gradually increase along the direction of the conveyor belt 410 for pushing the pushing plate. This design can screen fruits and vegetables of different sizes and enable the fruits and vegetables to be output orderly in a single form. A cleaning mechanism 500 corresponds to the lower part of a group of discharge slots 221 of the same size, realizing the one-to-one correspondence between the fruits and vegetables and the cleaning mechanism 500.

[0056] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 ,the cleaning mechanism 500 includes a first rotating cylinder 510, a first partition plate 520, and a fixed cylinder 530. The first rotating cylinder 510 and the fixed cylinder 530 are coaxially sleeved. The first rotating cylinder 510 is rotationally installed on the frame 100 by a motor drive, and the fixed cylinder 530 is fixedly installed on the frame 100 by welding with a fixing block 110. The fixed cylinder 530 is sequentially provided with a material receiving part 531, a cleaning part 532, a drying part 533, and a discharging part 534 along the circumferential direction. A plurality of first partition plates 520 are circumferentially spaced along the outer peripheral side of the first rotating cylinder 510. A sealing plate 523 is connected between the ends of two adjacent first partition plates 520. A cleaning cavity 521 for accommodating a single fruit or vegetable is provided between two adjacent first partition plates 520, and the cleaning cavity 521 has a material receiving port. The first partition plate 520 is provided with bristles 570 in the cleaning cavity 521 for brushing the surface of the fruit or vegetable. A plurality of cleaning cavities 521 are correspondingly arranged between two adjacent first partition plates 520 along their own length directions. The two adjacent cleaning cavities 521 are separated by a partition plate 522, and the cleaning cavity 521 is formed by two first partition plates 520, two partition plates 522 (or one partition plate 522 and one sealing plate 523).

[0057] Referring to FIG. 4, the cleaning mechanism 500 further includes an arc-shaped baffle 540. The arc-shaped baffle 540 is installed on the frame 100, and the arc opening faces the cleaning part 532 of the fixed cylinder 530. When the first rotating cylinder 510 rotates and the first partition plate 520 approaches the arc-shaped baffle 540, the end of the first partition plate 520 is in sliding contact with the arc-shaped baffle 540, and the arc-shaped baffle 540 simultaneously covers a plurality of circumferentially distributed material receiving ports. The fixed cylinder 530 is provided with a water inlet pipe 535 at the cleaning part 532. Six water inlet pipes 535 are spaced along the cleaning part 532. A first water inlet hole 536 for communicating with the water inlet pipe 535 is opened on the outer peripheral side of the fixed cylinder 530. One water inlet pipe 535 corresponds to a row of first water inlet holes 536, and there are four in a row. The first water inlet holes 536 and the cleaning cavities 521 are in one-to-one correspondence. The first rotating cylinder 510 is provided with second water inlet holes 511 between two first partition plates 520. The second water inlet holes 511 are uniformly distributed in multiple rows along the circumferential side of the first rotating cylinder 510, and there are four in each row, and they are respectively in one-to-one correspondence with the cleaning cavities 521. When the arc-shaped baffle 540 covers the material receiving port, the corresponding cleaning cavity 521 is at the position of the cleaning part 532. Along with the rotation of the first rotating cylinder 510, the first water inlet holes 536 and the second water inlet holes 511 form a communication relationship, and external water source enters the cleaning cavity 521 through the water inlet pipe 535, the first water inlet holes 536, and the second water inlet holes 511 to provide water source for the potatoes when they are at the cleaning part 532.

[0058] Reference Figure 4The arc-shaped lower end of the arc-shaped baffle 540 is connected with a filter plate 550, and the filter plate 550 is provided with a water filter hole. The filter plate 550 also covers a plurality of material receiving ports along the circumferential direction of the fixed cylinder 530. The water filter hole on the filter plate 550 is used to discharge the sewage in the cleaning chamber 521. A water receiving bucket can be placed under the filter plate 550 to receive the sewage, or a sewage trough can be provided under the entire frame for the sewage to fall directly into the sewage trough. The fixed cylinder 530 is connected with an air outlet pipe 537 at the spin dryer 533, and three air outlet pipes 537 are provided. The air outlet pipe 537 is connected to the high-pressure gas storage tank, and an air outlet hole 538 for communicating with the air outlet pipe 537 is provided on the outer peripheral side of the fixed cylinder 530. When the air outlet hole 538 is connected to the second water inlet hole 511, the air flow with pressure from the air outlet pipe 537 blows toward the washed potatoes, so that the potatoes can be gradually dried when passing through the spin dryer 533. When the potatoes leave the filter plate 550, they enter the discharge portion 534. A receiving frame (not shown) can be placed on the ground to receive the cleaned and screened potatoes.

[0059] Reference Figure 6 The transfer mechanism 600 is installed on the frame 100, and is used to receive the fruits and vegetables leaving the receiving plate 200, and arrange the fruits and vegetables in order, so that the fruits and vegetables fall into the cleaning chamber 521 in sequence. Specifically, a group of discharge troughs 221 has two rows, and a group of discharge troughs 221 corresponds to a transfer mechanism 600, and the transfer mechanism 600 includes a second rotating drum 610, a plurality of second partitions 620 and a receiving bag 630. The second rotating drum 610 is located below the discharge trough 221, and the second rotating drum 610 is driven to rotate by a motor. The second rotating drum 610 and the first rotating drum 510 are arranged side by side, and the first rotating drum 510 and the second rotating drum 610 rotate synchronously and in the same direction (in the embodiment of the present application, they rotate counterclockwise), and the centers of the second rotating drum 610 and the first rotating drum 510 are located on the same horizontal line. The plurality of second partitions 620 are distributed circumferentially along the outer peripheral side of the second rotating drum 610, and correspond to the first partitions 520 one by one. The material receiving bag 630 is installed between two adjacent second partitions 620. When the material receiving bag 630 receives the falling potatoes, the sewage carried by the potatoes is discharged through the material receiving bag 630. The material receiving bag 630 can be a net bag or made of water-permeable cloth. This embodiment is made of water-permeable cloth. The material receiving bag 630 can not only receive materials and discharge sewage, but also have a buffering effect on the falling potatoes.

[0060] The frame 100 is installed with a limiting plate 640 in the shape of an arc-shaped plate. The arc opening of the limiting plate 640 faces the second rotating cylinder 610. When the material receiving pocket 630 of the second rotating cylinder 610 rotates counterclockwise in the first rotating direction after receiving potatoes, there is a gap between the second partition plate 620 and the limiting plate 640, and part of the potatoes extends out of the material receiving pocket 630. The limiting plate 640 may contact the potatoes or have a gap with the potatoes. The limiting plate 640 can prevent the potatoes from detaching from the material receiving pocket 630 and guide the potatoes to fall into the cleaning cavity 521.

[0061] When the distance between the first partition plate 520 and the second partition plate 620 is the smallest, the first partition plate 520 moves to the material receiving part 531 of the fixed cylinder 530, and the material receiving port faces the material receiving pocket 630. The fruits and vegetables fall from the material receiving pocket 630 into the cleaning cavity 521 along with the rotation of the second rotating cylinder 610.

[0062] Refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 Referring to, the cleaning mechanism further includes a movable rod 560. The movable rod 560 is installed in the cleaning cavity 521, and the brush bristles 570 are arranged on the movable rod 560. The movable rod 560 penetrates through the partition plate 522, and the partition plate 522 rotates along with the rotation of the movable rod 560. A driving assembly 700 for driving the movable rod 560 to move in a circle is installed between the frame 100 and the first rotating cylinder 510. The driving assembly 700 includes a guiding gear 710 and a plurality of driven gears 720. The guiding gear 710 is fixedly installed on the frame 100. The plurality of driven gears 720 are circumferentially distributed along the guiding gear 710 and mesh with the guiding gear 710. The driven gear 720 and the blocking plate 523 are coaxially connected by a connecting rod. Both ends of the movable rod 560 are respectively connected to a blocking plate 523. The blocking plate 523 is rotatably installed between the two first partition plates 520. The blocking plate 523 and the partition plate 522 are circular plates with the same outer diameter, and the central axes of the blocking plate 523 and the partition plate 522 coincide. Bearings can be fixedly installed between adjacent two first partition plates 520, and the inner rings of the bearings are fixedly connected to the blocking plate 523 and the partition plate 522. Limit blocks can also be installed between adjacent two first partition plates 520, and the blocking plate 523 and the partition plate 522 can only be rotatably installed on the limit blocks. When the first rotating cylinder 510 rotates, it drives the driven gear 720 to mesh with the guiding gear 710, and the driven gear 720 drives the movable rod 560 to move in a circle during the meshing process.

[0063] Refer to Figure 8There are two movable rods 560 in the two adjacent first partitions 520, and the blocking plate 523 is provided with an adjustment assembly 800 for adjusting the distance between the two movable rods 560. The partition plate 522 is provided with a clearance groove 524 for the movable rod 560 to move.
