Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to agricultural product production and processing, and in particular to a field agricultural product production and cleaning system. Background Art

[0002] The sales model of traditional agricultural products is generally: picking in the field - storage - transportation - agricultural product market sales - transportation - factory production and processing - transportation - terminal market sales. Since it takes a long time for agricultural products to be picked from the field to be sold in the terminal market, they need to be picked when they are not fully mature. There are problems such as multiple transportations, many processing links, insufficient preservation, and large logistics losses.

[0003] To this end, the patent document with announcement number CN213663430U discloses a modular fruit and vegetable cold chain production workshop, which includes a pre-cooling workshop, a cleaning workshop, a slitting workshop, a packaging workshop, and a fresh-keeping workshop connected in sequence. The pre-cooling workshop, cleaning workshop, slitting workshop, packaging workshop, and fresh-keeping workshop are all carried by containers. The workshop is quick to assemble and easy to transport. It is suitable for rapid processing operations in the fields and can be quickly transferred during the busy farming season.

[0004] However, during actual use, the inventors found that due to the limited space in the cleaning workshop and the single cleaning method, it is difficult to completely remove the microorganisms attached to the folds of agricultural products, and the risk of residual pathogens exceeding the standard is high. In addition, for some fruits and vegetables, chemical disinfectants are needed to disinfect them, but after spraying sodium hypochlorite, it is difficult to penetrate the waxy layer of the fruit and vegetable epidermis due to surface tension, and excessive use is required to meet the standard, resulting in excessive chemical residues. Therefore, it is easy to cause the local cleanliness of agricultural products to fail to meet the standard. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0059] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0060] Example 1

[0061] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, a field agricultural product production cleaning system includes a cleaning box 1, a conveying mechanism 2, a spraying mechanism 3, an ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4, a disinfecting mechanism 5 and an air blowing mechanism 6. The cleaning box 1 is provided with a conveying mechanism 2 inside; the spraying mechanism 3, the ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 and the disinfecting mechanism 5 are sequentially provided along the transmission direction of the conveying mechanism 2, and the bottom of the cleaning box is also provided with an air blowing mechanism 6; the spraying mechanism 3 includes a liquid supply component 31, which is connected to the liquid supply component 31 and is provided at the front end of the ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 The front cleaning component 32 and the rear cleaning component 33 connected to the liquid supply component 31 and arranged at the rear end of the disinfection mechanism 5; the front cleaning component 32 includes at least one group of shunt pipes 321 connected to the liquid supply component 31, several groups of spray heads 323 connected to the shunt pipes 321 through connecting water pipes 322, and a card unit 324 fixedly connected to the spray heads 323 and used to install the spray heads 323 on the shunt pipes 321; the upper end of the front cleaning component 32 is also provided with a driving mechanism 7 for controlling the movement of the spray heads 323.

[0062] The spray mechanism 3 is provided, and the spray head 323 in the spray mechanism 3 can move laterally to form a high-pressure water flow to flush the surface wrinkles of the agricultural products, ensuring that the trajectory of the spray head 323 is controllable and covers the blind spots of cleaning, thereby ensuring that the microorganisms in the wrinkles of the agricultural products can be completely removed, thereby improving the cleanliness of the agricultural products.

[0063] By providing an ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 and a disinfecting mechanism 5, the ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 uses high-frequency vibration to peel off the epidermal wax layer and the microscopic adhesion of microorganisms, making it easier to remove these surface-attached substances, ensuring that the agricultural products are evenly exposed to the ultrasonic action. The ultrasonic action not only removes surface dirt, but also penetrates the fine wrinkles of the agricultural products through microscopic vibrations, ensuring a uniform cleaning effect.

[0064] The disinfection mechanism 5 then forms atomized droplets of low-concentration sodium hypochlorite and sprays them onto the agricultural products. After peeling off the epidermal wax layer, the sodium hypochlorite solution can enter the agricultural products, thereby achieving effective penetration of the chemical disinfectant to improve the disinfection effect. Compared with traditional spraying methods, this system can reduce the amount of disinfectant used, thereby avoiding the risk of excessive disinfectant residues.

[0065] This system integrates multiple functions such as cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, disinfection and blowing into one system, and realizes the coordination of various functions through reasonable process design. The spray mechanism 3, ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 and disinfection mechanism 5 are arranged in a certain order, and through reasonable time control and work flow, it ensures that the cleaning effect of each step is optimal.

[0066] It should be noted that the connecting water pipe 322 is a hose, and one end of the connecting water pipe 322 connected to the diversion pipe 321 is fixedly connected to ensure that the sprinkler head 323 can move on the diversion pipe 321;

[0067] The main difference between the rear cleaning assembly 33 and the front cleaning assembly 32 is that the driving mechanism 7 is not provided at the upper end of the rear cleaning assembly 33 , which is mainly used to clean the agricultural products after disinfection.

[0068] Further, if Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the driving mechanism 7 includes a fixed frame 71, a connecting rod 72, a movable plate 73 and a telescopic unit 74. The fixed frame 71 is arranged at the upper end of the diversion pipe 321 and is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cleaning box 1; the connecting rod 72 is provided with several groups and is interconnected with the card unit 324; the movable plate 73 is slidably arranged inside the fixed frame 71 and is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 72 respectively; the telescopic unit 74 is fixedly arranged on the outside of the cleaning box 1 and is transmission-connected to the movable plate 73.

[0069] Among them, through the cooperation of the fixed frame 71, the connecting rod 72, the movable plate 73 and the telescopic unit 74, the moving trajectory of the spray head 323 can be accurately controlled. The driving mechanism 7 can realize the precise lateral movement of the spray head 323 during the cleaning process, so that it can cover every corner of the agricultural products, especially the wrinkled parts that are difficult to reach.

[0070] In detail, through the transmission action of the telescopic unit 74, the movable plate 73 can slide along the fixed frame 71, thereby driving the connecting rod 72 and the card unit 324 to adjust the spray head 323, ensuring the precise positioning and movement of the spray head 323, and further improving the spraying effect.

[0071] Further, if Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, the card unit 324 includes a card body 3241 surrounding the outside of the shunt tube 321 and a boss portion 3242 fixedly disposed on the upper end of the card body 3241; the boss portion 3242 defines a placement groove 32421, and the lower end of the connecting rod 72 is disposed within the placement groove 32421 and slidably disposed with the boss portion 3242;

[0072] The clamping plate body 3241 is provided with a guide groove 32411 along the axial direction of the diverter tube 321 , and the diverter tube 321 is fixed with a guide block 3211 at a position corresponding to the guide groove 32411 .

[0073] When the telescopic unit 74 drives the movable plate 73 to move back and forth horizontally on the fixed frame 71 and synchronously drives the card plate unit 324 and the spray head 323 to move back and forth horizontally, the guide block 3211 will slide inside the guide groove 32411, thereby driving the card plate body 3241 and the spray head 323 to move laterally along the axial direction of the diverter tube 321 while also rotating back and forth along the circumferential direction of the diverter tube 321, thereby achieving the effect of the spray head 323 moving laterally and rotating at the same time. This arrangement can effectively expand the spraying area of the spray head 323, so that it can cover every corner of the agricultural products, especially the difficult-to-reach wrinkled parts, which improves the cleaning effect of the spray head 323 on the agricultural products.

[0074] When the clamping unit 324 rotates back and forth along the circumferential direction of the diversion pipe 321, since the lower end of the connecting rod 72 is clamped with the placement groove 32421 in the boss part 3242, the boss part 3242 will rotate relative to the connecting groove, but the connecting rod 72 will still always maintain a stably connected with the boss part 3242, thereby achieving a stable clamping effect of the clamping unit 324 on the sprinkler head 323.

[0075] Further, if Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the liquid supply assembly 31 includes a liquid storage tank 311, a first booster pump 312, an inlet pipe, a main pipe 313 and an outlet pipe. The liquid storage tank 311 is fixedly arranged on the outside of the cleaning box 1; the first booster pump 312 is connected to the cleaning box 1 through the inlet pipe; the main pipe 313 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the cleaning box 1 and is connected to the first booster pump 312 through the outlet pipe.

[0076] The liquid supply assembly 31 includes a liquid storage tank 311, a first booster pump 312 and a main pipe 313. These components jointly complete the liquid supply and pressurization work in the cleaning system. The liquid storage tank 311 is fixed to the outside of the cleaning box 1 and is connected to the cleaning box 1 through a water inlet pipe to ensure an adequate source of cleaning liquid. The booster pump effectively increases the spraying pressure of the liquid, ensuring that the high-pressure water flow can strongly flush the surface of agricultural products and remove dirt and microorganisms. The design of the main pipe 313 allows the liquid to pass through the cleaning box 1 in an orderly manner and be distributed to various cleaning mechanisms.

[0077] Generally speaking, since the cleaning system is arranged in a container, in order to save water, the wastewater collected at the bottom of the cleaning box 1 is usually filtered by a filter assembly and then transported back to the interior of the liquid storage tank 311. Generally speaking, the filter assembly includes a three-stage membrane separation and reuse module. Optionally, the filter assembly is arranged inside the liquid storage tank 311, and the three-stage membrane separation and reuse modules are respectively a series ultrafiltration membrane, an electrodialysis desalination module, and a UV-LED sterilization unit;

[0078] The pore size of the series ultrafiltration membrane is 50 nanometers, which can effectively remove suspended particles, bacteria, viruses and organic matter in the water. It is used for primary filtration. The electrodialysis system is composed of multiple ion exchange membranes. The electric current drives the cations and anions to migrate to their respective electrodes, and the salt in the water is effectively removed. There are concentrated water and fresh water channels in the system. The selective permeability of the ion exchange membrane separates the ions, which can efficiently remove the soluble salts in the water. Finally, the remaining microorganisms are killed by the UV-LED sterilization unit. This step does not require chemical additives, avoids secondary pollution of the water quality by chemicals, and ensures that the water quality meets safety standards.

[0079] Further, if Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the conveying mechanism 2 includes a driving unit 21, a driving chain 22, a support rod 23 and a material baffle plate 24. The driving unit 21 is fixedly arranged on the outside of the cleaning box 1; the driving chain 22 is wound around the inside of the cleaning box 1 and is transmission-connected to the driving unit 21; several groups of support rods 23 are arranged in parallel and fixedly connected to the driving chain 22, and several groups of material baffle plates 24 are arranged on the support rods 23.

[0080] The conveying mechanism 2 realizes continuous conveying of agricultural products through the cooperation of the drive unit 21, the drive chain 22 and the support rod 23. After completing the cleaning of the agricultural products, the cleaning water can flow downward along the gaps between the multiple support rods 23 to the bottom of the cleaning box 1. The baffle plate 24 on the support rod 23 ensures that the agricultural products maintain a stable flow state during the cleaning process to avoid jamming or deviation from the cleaning trajectory. The cooperation between the drive unit 21 and the chain realizes the automatic operation of the entire system, greatly improves the cleaning efficiency, and reduces the need for manual operation.

[0081] Further, if Figure 9 As shown, the ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 41 provided at the upper end of the cleaning box 1 and a plurality of piezoelectric sheets 42 provided at the lower end of the mounting frame 41 and arranged in a matrix.

[0082] The core design of the piezoelectric array transducer is a group of PZT-5H piezoelectric sheets arranged in a 4×4 matrix. Each piezoelectric sheet 42 is made of lead zirconate titanate (PZT-5H) material and has a high electromechanical coupling coefficient (k 33 ≥0.7) and a wide resonant frequency range (20-45kHz), the substrate material is arranged on the mounting base and serves as a supporting substrate, matching the thermal expansion coefficient of the piezoelectric material to reduce stress deformation, wherein the spacing between adjacent piezoelectric sheets 42 is controlled within half a wavelength (e.g., the wavelength of a 45kHz frequency sound wave in water is 33.33 mm, so the half wavelength is 16.67 mm) to avoid coherent cancellation;

[0083] Compared with the traditional single oscillator, the array design can improve the focusing accuracy of the sound field, and by enhancing the directivity of the sound field, it can improve the energy utilization rate, thereby ensuring the working effect of the ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4.

[0084] Further, if Figure 10 As shown, the disinfection mechanism 5 includes a disinfection box 51 arranged on one side of the cleaning box 1, a second booster pump 52 connected to the disinfection box 51, a liquid supply pipe 53 connected to the second booster pump 52, and multiple groups of disinfection nozzles arranged at the lower end of the liquid supply pipe 53.

[0085] The disinfection mechanism 5 ensures sufficient penetration and uniform distribution of the disinfectant by providing a disinfection box 51, a second booster pump 52, a liquid supply pipe 53 and a disinfection nozzle (not shown in the figure). The disinfection nozzle sprays sodium hypochlorite solution in an atomized form, so that the chemical disinfectant can quickly penetrate into the surface of the agricultural products, thereby improving the disinfection effect and ensuring the hygiene and safety of the agricultural products.

[0086] Further, if Figure 11-12 As shown, the blowing mechanism 6 includes a blowing unit 61 arranged on the outside of the cleaning box 1, an air inlet pipe 62 connected to the blowing unit 61, an air outlet pipe 63 connected to the air inlet pipe 62 and arranged at the bottom of the conveying mechanism 2, and several groups of air outlets 64 arranged at the upper end of the air outlet pipe 63.

[0087] Among them, by setting the blowing mechanism 6, on the one hand, the air outlet 64 in the blowing mechanism 6 is set at the lower end of the conveying mechanism 2, and the clean water in the spraying mechanism 3 is sprayed from top to bottom on the surface of the agricultural product. With the help of the wind force in the blowing mechanism 6 blowing from bottom to top, a layer of water mist can be formed in the conveying area of the conveying mechanism 2, preventing the clean water from falling directly on the bottom of the cleaning box 1. This arrangement increases the contact time between the clean water and the agricultural product. At the same time, the wind force combined with the water mist can also clean the lower surface of the agricultural product, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the agricultural product and improving the cleaning efficiency of the agricultural product.

[0088] On the other hand, the setting of the blowing mechanism 6 can ensure that the residual moisture of the washed agricultural products (away from the side of the spraying mechanism 3) can be quickly removed, and prevent the re-growth of bacteria on the surface of the agricultural products due to excessive moisture. The blowing unit 61 and the air outlet pipe 63 provided on the outside of the cleaning box 1 can dry the washed agricultural products, keep the surface of the agricultural products clean and fresh, and avoid the secondary growth of bacteria in a humid environment.

[0089] Example 2

[0090] Components identical or corresponding to those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment. For simplicity, only the differences from the first embodiment are described below. The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that:

[0091] Further, if Figure 13 As shown, the cleaning system is arranged inside the container, and the production cleaning system also includes a processing area and a storage area arranged inside the container. In the processing area, the processing personnel peel, split, cut and package (modified atmosphere packaging or vacuum packaging) the cleaned agricultural products. The packaged products are sent to the storage area through the transfer port, and are labeled and packaged in outer boxes in the storage area. In order to further ensure the cleanliness of the environment inside the container, when entering, personnel need to change clothes, shoes, masks, and hats as required, wash their hands and pass through the air shower room before entering the processing area.

[0092] In order to better solve the problem of limited space in the field environment, this system is also designed as a container structure. The cleaning system, processing area and storage area are integrated in a standardized container, which not only saves space but also improves the convenience and operability of the equipment. The design of the container also takes into account the smoothness and safety of the operator's work, ensuring efficient cleaning operations in a limited space.

[0093] The production and cleaning system of the present invention is set up in the field. After the agricultural products are picked in the field, they can be directly transported to the production and cleaning system for primary processing. In this way, the agricultural products can be picked and processed when they are 90% mature or have the best taste. They can be processed at the fastest speed and delivered to the sales terminal at the fastest speed, thereby ensuring the freshness and best taste of the agricultural products to the greatest extent.

[0094] Further, if Figure 14 As shown, the interior of the container is also provided with:

[0095] Water purification system: The container is equipped with a water treatment device, which purifies the treated water to the standard of direct drinking water through the water purification system, ensuring the hygiene and safety of the water source during the cleaning process of agricultural products and preventing the agricultural products from being contaminated.

[0096] Water cooling system: The container is equipped with a dedicated water cooling system for cooling processed fruits and vegetables. The system uses a low-temperature water flow system to help lower the temperature of fruits and vegetables, effectively delaying their respiration, extending their shelf life and maintaining the best taste.

[0097] Metal detection system: After packaging, metal detection equipment is installed in the container to conduct metal detection inspection on the packaged agricultural products to ensure that no metal foreign objects are mixed into the products and ensure the safety of consumers.

[0098] Air purification system: The container is equipped with an air purification device that uses high-efficiency filtration and air disinfection technology to reduce the number of bacteria and microorganisms in the air, providing a clean and pollution-free air environment for the processing area, and further improving the hygiene and safety of processed products.

[0099] Ozone disinfection system: After processing and production are completed, the container is disinfected through an ozone disinfection system. The system can effectively remove pathogenic microorganisms in the air and on the surface of equipment, keeping the processing environment clean and sterile.

[0100] Environmental temperature control system: The container is equipped with an intelligent environmental temperature control system, which can automatically adjust the temperature inside the container according to external climate changes, ensuring that the temperature in the processing and storage areas is appropriate, preventing the growth of microorganisms caused by excessive temperature, maintaining the freshness of fruits and vegetables and slowing down their respiration intensity.

[0101] Working process:

[0102] Agricultural products are transported into cleaning box 1:

[0103] The agricultural products are fed into the cleaning box 1 from one side of the container by the conveying mechanism 2 , which ensures that the agricultural products maintain a stable flow state and prevents them from getting stuck or deviating from the cleaning track.

[0104] Cleaning before spraying:

[0105] After entering the cleaning chamber 1, agricultural products first come into contact with the pre-cleaning assembly 32 of the spray mechanism 3. This pre-cleaning assembly 32 uses high-pressure water from the liquid supply assembly 31 to perform a preliminary cleaning of the agricultural product surface. The spray head 323 of the pre-cleaning assembly 32, driven by a water pipe, moves laterally, generating a high-pressure water flow that flushes wrinkled areas on the agricultural product surface, removing most surface dirt, pesticide residues, and microorganisms.

[0106] Ultrasonic cleaning:

[0107] The agricultural products continue to move to the ultrasonic cleaning area. The ultrasonic cleaning mechanism 4 generates high-frequency vibrations through the piezoelectric plate 42 array on its mounting frame 41. The ultrasonic waves are transmitted through the water medium to peel off the wax layer, microorganisms and dirt attached to the surface of the agricultural products. The high-frequency vibrations of the ultrasonic waves can penetrate into the tiny folds of the agricultural products to ensure a uniform cleaning effect.

[0108] Disinfection:

[0109] Next, the agricultural products enter the disinfection mechanism 5, and the low-concentration sodium hypochlorite solution in the disinfection box 51 is sent to the nozzle through the second booster pump 52 and sprayed onto the surface of the agricultural products in the form of atomization. After the epidermal wax layer is removed, the sodium hypochlorite solution can better penetrate into the surface of the agricultural products to achieve disinfection and ensure the hygiene and safety of the agricultural products. Since the atomization treatment can accurately control the amount of disinfectant used, the waste and residue of the disinfectant can be reduced.

[0110] Air drying:

[0111] Finally, the blowing unit 61 in the blowing mechanism 6 sends air into the outlet pipe 63 through the air inlet pipe 62, and then dries the agricultural products from below through multiple air outlets 64. The blowing action not only helps to remove residual moisture on the surface of the agricultural products, but also ensures that the moisture on the surface of the agricultural products evaporates quickly after disinfection, prevents the regrowth of bacteria, and ensures that the agricultural products are fresh and dry.

[0112] Transport of agricultural products to subsequent processing areas:

[0113] After cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, disinfection and air drying, the agricultural products are continuously transported by the conveying mechanism 2 to the processing area in the container. In the processing area, the agricultural products can undergo post-processing steps such as peeling, splitting, dicing and packaging. After packaging, the agricultural products enter the storage area through the transfer port for labeling and outer box packaging.

[0114] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or substitute equivalents for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
