A spring is installed inside the third groove, with the top end of the spring contacting the top inner wall of the third groove and the bottom end of the spring connected to the top of the top block.
[0015] The present invention, by adopting the above technical solution, can bring the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention achieves the effect of scooping potatoes from the pool and draining them by setting up a scooping mechanism. When the hydraulic cylinder drives the net box to move up and down, the threaded groove drives the sliding sleeve to rotate the net box through the second slider. Centrifugal force is used to shake off the dirty water on the surface of the potatoes.

[0016] 2. This invention achieves the effect of rinsing the mud and dirty water on the surface of potatoes by setting up a rinsing mechanism. The movement of the sliding sleeve increases the diameter of the circle formed by the outer and inner tubes through the movable rod, and the distance between the electric nozzles increases, which improves the uniformity of rinsing the mud and sand on the surface of potatoes. At the same time, the rotation of the sliding sleeve drives the electric nozzles to rotate around the vertical axis, and the water supplied by the water tank is sprayed out through the electric nozzles, which further improves the cleanliness and coverage of the cleaning.
[0017] 3. This invention achieves the effect of scraping off impurities on the surface of potatoes and adhering to the inner wall of the bottom of the net box by setting up a cleaning mechanism. When the net box rotates, the bristles come into contact with the potatoes to scrape off impurities, thereby cleaning the potatoes more thoroughly. At the same time, the scraper removes impurities from the bottom of the net box, and the top block is inserted into the filter hole under the action of the spring to push out the blockage impurities, further improving the potato cleaning effect and the efficiency of the net box in filtering sewage.

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-9 One embodiment of the present invention is: a material conveyor for primary processing of agricultural products, including a water tank 1, and further comprising: Support 2 is installed on top of pool 1; Conveyor belt 6 is located on the right side of pool 1 and is used to transport potatoes. The retrieval mechanism 3 is located inside the pool 1 and is used to retrieve potatoes from the pool 1. Among them, salvage organization 3 includes: Net cage 301 is installed inside pool 1 and is used to drain potatoes; Two hydraulic cylinders 302 are located at the bottom of the bracket 2 and are used to drive the net cage 301 to move up and down. The first slider 303 is located at the bottom end of the hydraulic cylinder 302; The top of the net cage 301 is provided with an annular slide rail 304, and the first slider 303 is slidably connected inside the annular slide rail 304. The first slider 303 is spherical. The bottom and sides of the net cage 301 are provided with drainage holes, and the bottom of the net cage 301 is provided with a water trough 305.
[0022] A vertical rod 306 is connected to the bottom inner wall of the pool 1. A sliding sleeve 307 is fitted on the vertical rod 306. A threaded groove 308 is opened on the vertical rod 306. A second slider 309 is slidably connected inside the threaded groove 308. The second slider 309 is connected inside the sliding sleeve 307. The sliding sleeve 307 is connected to the middle of the net box 301.
[0023] An electric gate 3010 is installed on the right side of the cage 301, and a telescopic plate is installed on the electric gate 3010.
[0024] Working principle: First, potatoes are placed in water tank 1 for washing. After washing, hydraulic cylinder 302 is activated to retract, driving the first slider 303 and net box 301 to move upward, thus scooping the potatoes out of the water tank 1. As the net box 301 moves upward, the sliding sleeve 307 moves upward, and the sliding sleeve 307 moves upward, driving the second slider 309 to move upward. During the upward movement of the second slider 309, the sliding sleeve 307 and net box 301 rotate under the limiting action of the threaded sliding groove 308. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of net box 301 shakes off the dirty water on the surface of the potatoes, thereby improving the drainage efficiency of the potatoes. The water shaken out by centrifugal force flows out from the filter holes on the side of net box 301 into water tank 305, and finally falls back into water tank 1, thus saving water resources. When the sliding sleeve 307 moves upward above the vertical rod 306, the two disengage. At this time, the right hydraulic cylinder 302 stops contracting, while the left hydraulic cylinder 302 continues to contract. As a result, the net box 301 tilts to the right, and at this time, the electric gate 3010 opens. After the electric gate 3010 opens, it flips to the right. At the same time, the telescopic plate on the electric gate 3010 will extend under the action of gravity and become an inclined discharge plate for the potatoes to slide down. Then, the potatoes in the net box 301 will slide down from the electric gate 3010 onto the conveyor belt 6, thus completing the rapid retrieval and transportation of potatoes and improving the processing efficiency of potatoes.
[0025] Please see Figure 1-9 Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, a rinsing mechanism 4 is provided at the bottom of the bracket 2. The rinsing mechanism 4 includes a vertical shaft 401, which is rotatably connected to the bottom of the bracket 2. A first telescopic rod 402 is connected to the front and rear sides of the vertical shaft 401. A fixing block 403 is connected to the other end of the first telescopic rod 402 away from the vertical shaft 401. An outer tube 404 is hinged to both sides of the fixing block 403. An inner tube 405 is sleeved inside the outer tube 404. An electric nozzle 406 is provided at the bottom of the outer tube 404 and the inner tube 405.
[0026] A water tank 408 is connected to the front fixing block 403. The water tank 408 is filled with water and is connected to the outer pipe 404 through a hose 409.
[0027] The bottom of the two fixed blocks 403 is hinged with movable rods 407, and the bottom ends of the two movable rods 407 are respectively hinged to the front and rear sides of the sliding sleeve 307.
[0028] Working principle: As the sliding sleeve 307 moves upward, it drives the two fixed blocks 403 to move in the opposite direction via the movable rod 407. The two fixed blocks 403 move in the opposite direction, which drives the outer tubes 404 on the front and rear sides to move in the opposite direction respectively. As the outer tube 404 moves, the inner tube 405 slides out from the inside of the outer tube 404. As a result, the diameter of the circle formed by the outer tube 404 and the inner tube 405 increases, and the distance between the multiple electric nozzles 406 also increases. The water in the water tank 408 flows into the outer tube 404 and the inner tube 405 through the hose 409. At the same time, the electric nozzles 406 are turned on to spray water downward, washing away the mud and dirty water attached to the surface of the potatoes, thus improving the cleanliness of the potatoes. As the sliding sleeve 307 rotates, it drives the two fixed blocks 403 to rotate via the movable rod 407. The rotation of the fixed blocks 403 drives the outer tube 404 and the inner tube 405 to rotate around the vertical axis 401. The rotation of the outer tube 404 and the inner tube 405 around the vertical axis 401 drives multiple electric nozzles 406 to rotate around the vertical axis 401, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the electric nozzles 406 spraying water on the potatoes.
[0029] Please see Figure 1-9 Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, a cleaning mechanism 5 is provided above the net cage 301. The cleaning mechanism 5 includes two second telescopic rods 501. The top end of the second telescopic rod 501 is connected to the bracket 2, and the bottom end of the second telescopic rod 501 is hinged to a scraper 502. The bottom of the scraper 502 is in contact with the bottom inner wall of the net cage 301.
[0030] Several rotating rods 503 are rotatably connected to the top of the scraper 502, and brush bristles 504 are provided on the rotating rods 503.
[0031] The scraper 502 has several third grooves 505 at its bottom. A top block 506 is slidably connected inside the third groove 505 via a third slider. The bottom end of the top block 506 is spherical and contacts the bottom filter hole of the mesh box 301. A spring 507 is installed inside the third groove 505. The top end of the spring 507 contacts the top inner wall of the third groove 505, and the bottom end of the spring 507 is connected to the top of the top block 506.
[0032] Working principle: As the mesh cage 301 rotates, it also rotates the potatoes. The potatoes, while rotating, come into contact with the bristles 504, which scrape off impurities from their surface, thus improving the cleaning effect. Simultaneously, the scraper 502 removes impurities adhering to the inner wall of the bottom of the mesh cage 301. While the mesh cage 301 rotates, the top block 506 moves downwards under the elastic force of the spring 507 and inserts into the filter holes at the bottom of the mesh cage 301, pushing out the impurities clogging it. As the mesh cage 301 continues to rotate, the spherical top block 506 contacts the inner wall of the filter holes at the bottom of the mesh cage 301 and is pushed back into the third sliding groove 505. This process repeats continuously, allowing the top block 506 to continuously unclog the filter holes at the bottom of the mesh cage 301, thereby improving the efficiency of the mesh cage 301 in filtering wastewater.
