Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sea cucumber processing equipment technology, specifically a processing equipment for cleaning and drying sea cucumbers. Background Technology

[0002] As a high-value-added aquatic product, the cleaning and drying process of sea cucumbers is a core link that determines product quality, hygiene indicators and production efficiency. At present, the industry has gradually applied automated processing equipment to replace traditional manual operations in order to improve the processing capacity and cleanliness of sea cucumbers.

[0003] Existing technologies for various spray-type and drum-type washer-dryer combos are widely used, but they still have the following drawbacks: Firstly, existing integrated cleaning and drying equipment usually only rinses or tumbles the surface of sea cucumbers with water, lacking a structure for opening and deep scrubbing of the abdominal cavity. It cannot effectively remove the yellow inner membrane, intestinal residue, and mud and sand impurities in the folds and crevices. The cleanliness of the inner cavity is insufficient, requiring a second manual scrubbing process. Secondly, existing integrated cleaning and drying equipment typically uses drums or centralized rinsing to clean the outer wall of sea cucumbers. High-pressure water jets or rigid mechanical clamping and brushing methods can easily puncture or break the skin of sea cucumbers, and rigid clamping structures can easily cause sea cucumbers to be injured and deformed. Furthermore, it is difficult to adapt to sea cucumbers of different sizes, which can easily lead to local missed cleaning or excessive squeezing and damage, affecting the appearance and quality of the sea cucumbers. Drum-type equipment is prone to surface damage due to the stacking and squeezing of sea cucumbers during rotation, and the stacking situation affects the uniformity of drying during the subsequent drying process.

[0004] Third, the roller structure of the existing washing and drying equipment used for cleaning the inner cavity of sea cucumbers is usually designed with a fixed length. The cleaning coverage is limited by the size of the roller itself and cannot be adapted to the inner cavity of sea cucumbers of different lengths. In particular, the folds and depressions at the head and tail of the sea cucumber form obvious cleaning blind spots, which easily cause mud, sand and inner membrane debris to remain, making it difficult to achieve fine cleaning of the entire inner cavity area. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a processing device for cleaning and drying sea cucumbers. The device opens the abdominal cavity of the sea cucumber by using an internal support lever, and with the help of a flexible and retractable cleaning roller and low-pressure spray, it achieves all-round cleaning of the inner cavity of the sea cucumber by roller brushing, eliminating dead corners in the cleaning of the head and tail. The device is driven by water flow and has a flexible and buffered brush, which, together with a reciprocating mechanism, drives the brush to slide and brush along the outer wall of the sea cucumber, thus completing the flexible cleaning of the outer wall without damaging the skin.

The bottom end of the push block is provided with a threaded lifting cylinder, which is slidably connected to the bottom plate of the sea cucumber placement rack. The inner cavity of the threaded lifting cylinder is threadedly connected to a conical rack roller. One end of the conical rack roller is engaged with a main drive rod, and the other end of the main drive rod is connected to the power output end of the first drive motor. A cleaning roller is rotatably connected to the center of the expansion frame. Both ends of the cleaning roller are elastically and retractably connected to extension rollers. Multiple granular rubber cleaning particles are provided on the outer walls of both extension rollers and the cleaning roller. A drive wheel is provided at the center of the cleaning roller, and the drive wheel is rotatably located in the inner cavity of the expansion frame.

[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of water spray holes are arranged in a ring array, and the outer sides of the plurality of water spray holes are all inclined.

[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the bottom end of the top frame is provided with a connecting strip, and the top end of the sea cucumber placement rack is provided with a slot that engages with the connecting strip.

[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the inner cavity of the top frame is provided with a plurality of horizontally arranged support frames, and the plurality of support frames are hinged together by a bridge. The top end of the bridge is provided with a vertical plate, and both ends of the bridge are hinged with a flow guide. One end of the flow guide is connected to the vertical plate by a spring. A transmission rod is rotatably connected to the inner bottom wall of the flow guide. One end of the transmission rod is provided with a bonding brush. The outer side of the bonding brush is provided with a protruding rubber bristle. The rubber bristle is fitted to the outer wall of the sea cucumber. The top end of the bridge is also provided with a U-shaped frame. The top end of the U-shaped frame is rotatably connected with a toothed roller. The top end of the toothed roller is rotatably connected with a bearing ring. The bottom end of the bearing ring is fitted with a spring rod. The other end of the spring rod is hinged to the top end of the U-shaped frame. A turbine is slidably engaged on the outer side of the toothed roller. The bottom end of the turbine is provided with a first bevel gear. Both ends of the first bevel gear are engaged with second bevel gears. The second bevel gear is located at the other end of the transmission rod.

[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the sliding assembly includes a slide rail disposed on the side wall of the top frame, a slider slidably connected to the inner cavity of the slide rail, one side of the slider being connected to two adjacent support frames, a pull rod being fixedly provided through the center of the slider, and a buckle being provided at the other end of the pull rod.

[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the reciprocating mechanism includes a second drive motor, the power output end of the second drive motor is provided with a cam, and a hook rod that engages with a buckle is hinged to one side of the cam.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention, by setting up an internal cleaning component for sea cucumbers, utilizes a first drive motor to drive an internal support lever to open the sea cucumber's abdominal cavity, allowing the inner wall of the sea cucumber to fully unfold and fit against the cleaning roller. Simultaneously, the expansion frame's internal flow channels and multiple sets of water spray holes achieve low-pressure, diffused internal cavity rinsing. Rubber cleaning particles on the outer sides of the cleaning roller and extension roller further clean the inner wall folds and head and tail corners. The cleaning roller also incorporates a built-in elastically extendable extension roller, which, by adjusting the water pressure and spring force, adaptively expands and contracts according to the sea cucumber's internal cavity space, specifically cleaning the blind spots at both ends of the sea cucumber's inner wall. This overcomes the limitations of existing integrated washing and drying equipment, which has a limited cleaning range and leaves many dead corners. It comprehensively covers the sea cucumber's internal cavity cleaning area, further eliminating cleaning dead corners and achieving thorough, dead-angle-free cleaning. This solves the problem that existing integrated washing and drying equipment can only clean the sea cucumber's exterior, leaving the abdominal cavity membrane and mud residue uncleaned. It removes the yellow inner membrane, intestinal residue, and mud impurities from the sea cucumber's inner wall, eliminating the need for manual secondary washing and improving the cleanliness and standardized processing effect of the sea cucumber's internal cavity.

[0015] 2. This invention utilizes a water-driven, buffered, and elastically fitted brushing method. It employs a turbine-like spray head with a spring rod to provide elastic buffering and pressure relief, replacing the high-pressure direct spraying and rigid mechanical clamping methods of existing integrated washing and drying equipment. This effectively buffers the instantaneous high pressure of the water flow, preventing the high-pressure water from penetrating or puncturing the sea cucumber's skin. Simultaneously, it can adaptively fit the outer walls of sea cucumbers of different sizes using constant water pressure, and the driving force generated by the water flow achieves roller brush cleaning of the sea cucumber's inner wall. It can simultaneously drive the inner wall roller brush and outer wall brushing operations without adding additional power components. The entire process uses water power to provide a uniform and gentle cleaning force, eliminating the hard impact of rigid mechanical contact, achieving flexible, all-around outer wall cleaning, avoiding sea cucumber pinching, breakage, and missed cleaning, ensuring the integrity of the sea cucumber's appearance, and improving product processing quality.

[0016] 3. This invention, by setting up a reciprocating mechanism, uses a second drive motor to drive the cam-linked hook rod to swing back and forth, causing the slider to slide horizontally back and forth along the slide rail. This, in turn, pulls the adhesive brush to slide back and forth across the outer surface of the sea cucumber for brushing. Combined with the rotating roller action of the adhesive brush itself, it can perform all-round reciprocating wiping and cleaning of the sea cucumber's outer wall crevices and surface wrinkles. This solves the problems of blind spots in fixed-point brushing and difficulty in removing dirt from surface crevices, further improving the cleanliness and uniformity of the sea cucumber's outer wall.

[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. 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 should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] like Figures 1-5 and Figure 13As shown, a processing equipment for cleaning and drying sea cucumbers includes: a washing and drying integrated machine 1, a feeding hopper 11 at the front end of the washing and drying integrated machine 1, multiple shower heads 12 on the inner side wall of the feeding hopper 11, multiple sea cucumber placement racks 2 slidably inserted into the feeding hopper 11, the sea cucumber placement racks 2 being pull-out type installed in the feeding hopper 11, the bottom end of each sea cucumber placement rack 2 being provided with a guide plate for receiving and guiding the wastewater after cleaning into a wastewater tank inside the washing and drying integrated machine 1 for centralized sewage discharge, and the multiple guide plates being inclined; a reciprocating mechanism 7 is also provided at the other end of the washing and drying integrated machine 1; multiple sea cucumber internal cleaning components 4 arranged in a rectangular array are provided on the inner bottom wall of each of the multiple sea cucumber placement racks 2; a top frame 3 is provided at the top of each of the multiple sea cucumber placement racks 2, and a sliding component 32 connected to the reciprocating mechanism 7 is provided inside the top frame 3; a main water inlet pipe 14 and a main drain pipe 13 are provided at one end of the washing and drying integrated machine 1, the main water inlet pipe 14 being connected to the shower heads 12. The pull-out sea cucumber rack 2 is easy to assemble and disassemble, facilitating batch loading and unloading. The inclined guide plate can quickly guide the cleaning wastewater, preventing the accumulation of liquid and the growth of impurities inside the washing and drying machine 1, effectively ensuring a smooth and continuous processing flow and improving the overall stability of the equipment operation.

[0023] like Figure 12 As shown, a protective cover is provided on one side of the washing and drying machine 1, and a first drive motor 51 is provided inside the cavity of the protective cover. The first drive motor 51 drives multiple sets of sea cucumber internal cleaning components 4 to operate synchronously, ensuring that the actions of each station are consistent. The protective cover can isolate water vapor and processing debris, effectively protecting the first drive motor 51, reducing the failure rate of the equipment, and extending its service life.

[0024] like Figures 5-7As shown, the multiple sea cucumber internal cleaning components 4 include an extension frame 41 connected to the bottom of the sea cucumber placement rack 2. The bottom of the extension frame 41 is provided with a water inlet pipe 411 connected to the main water inlet pipe 14. The inner cavity of the extension frame 41 is provided with a diversion channel 412 connected to the water inlet pipe 411. The diversion channel 412 and the water inlet pipe 411 are both connected through the inner cavity of the extension frame 41. The side wall of the extension frame 41 is provided with multiple spray holes 413 connected to the diversion channel 412. The inner cavity of the extension frame 41 is hinged with two symmetrically arranged inner support levers 42, and the two inner support levers 42 are connected by a spring. One end of each of the two inner support levers 42 is also provided with an abutment block 421, and one end of each abutment block 421 abuts against a push block 4. 3. The bottom end of the push block 43 is provided with a threaded lifting cylinder 44, which is slidably connected to the bottom plate of the sea cucumber placement rack 2. The inner cavity of the threaded lifting cylinder 44 is threadedly connected with a conical rack roller 45. One end of the conical rack roller 45 is engaged with a main drive rod 46, and the other end of the main drive rod 46 is connected to the power output end of the first drive motor 51. The center of the expansion frame 41 is rotatably connected with a cleaning roller 47. Both ends of the cleaning roller 47 are elastically and retractably connected with extension rollers 48. The outer walls of the two extension rollers 48 and the cleaning roller 47 are provided with multiple granular rubber cleaning particles 49. The center of the cleaning roller 47 is provided with a drive wheel 471, which is rotatably located in the inner cavity of the expansion frame 41. The sea cucumber's abdominal cavity is opened by the threaded drive linkage inner support lever 42, allowing the hard-to-clean areas of the inner wall folds to unfold. With the help of the diversion channel 412 and the water spray hole 413, low-pressure diffusion-type internal cavity flushing is achieved. At the same time, the water flow driving force drives the cleaning roller 47 to rotate and roll the brush. With the help of the elastic extension roller 48 and rubber cleaning particles 49, the dead corners at the beginning and end of the inner cavity are covered. The yellow inner membrane, intestinal residue and mud impurities on the inner wall can be peeled off, eliminating the need for manual secondary washing and improving the cleanliness of the sea cucumber's inner cavity and the standardization of processing.

[0025] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, multiple water jets 413 are arranged in a ring array, with the outer sides of each water jet 413 facing at an angle. The ring array of angled water jets 413 can form a multi-directional diffused water curtain, covering all parts of the sea cucumber's internal cavity, preventing the water jet from damaging the soft inner wall tissue by vertically shooting, while improving the uniformity of rinsing and ensuring that the folds and gaps in the internal cavity can be effectively rinsed.

[0026] like Figure 9 As shown, the bottom of the top frame 3 is provided with a connecting strip 31, and the top of the sea cucumber placement rack 2 is provided with a slot 21 that engages with the connecting strip 31. Utilizing the positioning and assembly structure where the connecting strip 31 and the slot 21 engage, the top frame 3 and the sea cucumber placement rack 2 can be quickly aligned, making assembly and disassembly simple and improving the efficiency of loading and unloading. Simultaneously, it ensures accurate alignment of the internal and external cleaning components after assembly, preventing operational misalignment from affecting the cleaning effect.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the inner cavity of the top frame 3 is provided with multiple horizontally arranged support frames 33, and the multiple support frames 33 are hinged together by a connecting bridge 34. The top of the connecting bridge 34 is provided with a vertical plate 35, and both ends of the connecting bridge 34 are hinged with a flow guide shroud 36. One end of the flow guide shroud 36 is connected to the vertical plate 35 by a spring. A transmission rod 61 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom wall of the flow guide shroud 36. One end of the transmission rod 61 is provided with a bonding brush 62. The outer side of the bonding brush 62 is provided with a protruding rubber bristle strip, which is fitted to the outer wall of the sea cucumber; the top of the connecting bridge 34 The system also includes a U-shaped frame 37, with a toothed roller 64 rotatably connected to the top of the frame. A bearing ring 65 is rotatably connected to the top of the roller 64, and a spring rod 66 is attached to the bottom of the bearing ring 65. The other end of the spring rod 66 is hinged to the top of the U-shaped frame 37. A turbine 67 is slidably engaged on the outer side of the toothed roller 64. A first bevel gear 68 is located at the bottom of the turbine 67, and a second bevel gear 69 is engaged at both ends of the first bevel gear 68. The second bevel gear 69 is located at the other end of the transmission rod 61. The system utilizes the water flow impacting the turbine 67 in conjunction with the elastic buffering of the spring rod 66 to replace the high-pressure direct impact and rigid mechanical clamping structure of existing washing and drying integrated equipment. This effectively buffers the instantaneous pressure of the water flow, preventing high-pressure water from penetrating or puncturing the sea cucumber skin. Simultaneously, it can use constant water pressure to drive the bonding brush 62 to adaptively bond to the outer walls of sea cucumbers of different sizes. Combined with rubber bristles, this achieves flexible roller cleaning, avoiding pinching and damage, and ensuring the integrity of the sea cucumber's appearance and product quality.

[0028] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the sliding assembly 32 includes a slide rail 321 mounted on the side wall of the top frame 3. A slider 322 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the slide rail 321. One side of the slider 322 is connected to two adjacent support frames 33. A pull rod 323 is fixedly inserted through the center of the slider 322, and a buckle 324 is provided at the other end of the pull rod 323. The sliding structure of the slide rail 321 and the slider 322 operates smoothly and transmits power stably, which can drive the support frame 33 and the brush 62 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion, ensuring the continuity and positional accuracy of the brushing action and avoiding brushing deviation that may cause blind spots in cleaning.

[0029] like Figure 10 As shown, the reciprocating mechanism 7 includes a second drive motor 71. The power output end of the second drive motor 71 is provided with a cam 72. A hook rod 73 that engages with the buckle 324 is hinged to one side of the cam 72. The reciprocating transmission of the cam 72 and the hook rod 73 drives the brush 62 to slide and brush the sea cucumber surface back and forth, effectively cleaning dirt in the gaps between the sea cucumber and the folds of the skin, eliminating blind spots in fixed-point brushing, and further improving the uniformity and cleanliness of the outer wall cleaning.

[0030] Working principle: 1. During the installation process, after removing the viscera from the sea cucumber through the incision, the opening for removing the viscera is placed on the top of the sea cucumber placement rack 2. After placing them in order, the top frame 3 is placed on the top of the sea cucumber placement rack 2. The top frame 3 and the sea cucumber placement rack 2 are combined by engaging the connecting strip 31 with the slot 21. The top frame 3 containing the sea cucumber and the sea cucumber placement rack 2 are then slidably inserted into the feeding bin 11. 2. In the cleaning process, the first drive motor 51 is started, and the main drive rod 46 is driven to rotate through the power output end of the first drive motor 51. Through the mutual meshing with the conical rack roller 45, the conical rack roller 45 is driven to rotate. With the interaction between the threads, the threaded lifting cylinder 44 and the contact block 421 move synchronously to the top and contact the adjacent push block 43. After the push block 43 is pushed, it pushes the inner support levers 42 on both sides to unfold. During the unfolding process, the inner wall of the sea cucumber can be opened. With the push force of its arc setting to push down, the inner wall of the sea cucumber is firmly in contact with the rubber cleaning particles 49 on the outside of the cleaning roller 47. The water flow through the main water inlet pipe 14 enters the water inlet pipe 411. At this time, the water flow enters the inner cavity of the expansion frame 41 and then enters the diversion groove 412. It is sprayed out through multiple water spray holes 413 to rinse the inside of the sea cucumber. While the water flow washes the inside of the sea cucumber, the water flow also drives the drive wheel 471 to rotate, causing the cleaning roller 47 to rotate inside the sea cucumber. This, combined with the rubber cleaning particles 49, cleans the inner wall of the sea cucumber by rolling and brushing. This cleaning method can completely remove the yellow inner membrane, intestinal residue, and attached mucus from the abdominal cavity wall. At the same time, when the water flow enters the cleaning roller 47 through the fine holes, it increases the internal pressure of the cleaning roller 47 and pushes the extension roller 48 to extend out from the inside of the cleaning roller 47. After the extension roller 48 extends, it works with the rubber cleaning particles 49 on its outer side to rotate and clean the blind spots at both ends of the inner wall of the sea cucumber. Compared with the shortcomings of existing washing and drying integrated equipment that only relies on a single water flow to wash and cannot deal with the dead corners of the head and tail, this method reduces the dead corners of the cleaning. This makes the inside of the sea cucumber clean and free of mud, sand, internal organ debris, and fishy sticky membrane residue after cleaning, improving the standardization of the inner cavity cleaning and eliminating the need for manual secondary brushing. During the cleaning of the sea cucumber's interior, water is sprayed out through multiple shower heads 12. The sprayed water does not directly act on the sea cucumber's surface, preventing the surface from being punctured or damaged by the high-pressure water flow, which would affect the sea cucumber's appearance and reduce product quality. The water flow directly washes the top of the turbine 67, causing it to move downwards on the toothed roller 64. This squeezes the spring rod 66 and engages with two second bevel gears 69, driving them to rotate. The rotation of the two second bevel gears 69 drives the transmission rod 61 and the bonding brush 62 to rotate. The protruding rubber strips on the surface of the bonding brush 62 then... The outer wall of the sea cucumber is cleaned by a rolling brush. Because the water flow impact, combined with the buffering effect of the spring rod 66, results in lower high pressure when the water flows out instantaneously, preventing damage to the outer wall caused by squeezing. Simultaneously, the water flow creates a gentler cleaning force that clamps and resists the sea cucumber's outer wall compared to the mechanical clamping force of existing washing and drying equipment. Furthermore, compared to the mechanical clamping method of existing washing and drying equipment, the water flow's constant pressure pushes the elastic brush 62 to gently adhere to the surface of sea cucumbers of different sizes. This ensures that the outer walls of sea cucumbers of all sizes, large, medium, and small, are thoroughly cleaned without causing pinching or missed areas. During this process, the second drive motor 71 can drive the cam 72 to rotate and drive the hook rod 73 to swing back and forth, causing the corresponding slider 322 to slide horizontally back and forth in the slide rail 321, and drive the buckle 324 and the pull rod 323 to reciprocate synchronously, thereby driving the two brushes 62 clamped on the outer wall of the sea cucumber to rotate back and forth and brush the surface of the sea cucumber. 3. After cleaning, the wastewater enters the wastewater tank through the guide plate inside the washing and drying machine 1. The wastewater tank is an existing device with a standard internal configuration, so it is not shown in detail in the figure. After the wastewater is discharged, the internal temperature is adjusted to about 35-42℃ and the sea cucumber is dried continuously at a constant temperature for 18-24 hours to complete the drying process.
