[0005]本发明的目的在于提供主动搅流式清洗水槽,解决现有技术中通过设置电机及搅拌组件来实现食材清洗过程中的搅拌时,电机及搅拌组件需要额外占用较大的安装空间,且需要设置要求较高的密封结构,导致整体结构复杂,成本较高,后期维护难度较大,还容易出现安全隐患等问题

Benefits of technology

在食材清洗时,在清洗槽内注水以将食材浸泡在水体内,在清洗过程中水体可以循环流道,即部分水体能够通过进水孔进入排水壳内部,并沿着导流组件螺旋流动至出水孔处,随着水流的螺旋流动能够起到一定的加速作用,使得水流高速流经出水孔,且螺旋流动的水流会从侧面对驱动组件产冲击,使得驱动组件受到周向的推力而产生转动,驱动组件会带动清洗轮同步转动,此时清洗槽同时进水和排水,排水会持续冲击驱动组件,也就能够使得清洗轮持续转动,随着清洗轮转动就能够搅动清洗槽内的水体,从而使得浸泡在水体中的食材充分翻滚,以确保食材表面的泥沙等附着物被水流冲掉。因此该主动搅流式清洗水槽在清洗食材过程中,利用导流组件形成螺旋排水,不仅能够利用水流在螺旋流动时产生的离心力将泥沙等沉积物滞留在排水壳内,避免泥沙等沉积物随着水流循环至清洗槽内,同时还能够对水流加速,使得水流流经出水孔时对驱动组件的侧面冲击而绕其周向产生驱动力,使得驱动组件转动并同步带动清洗轮旋转以搅动清洗槽内的水体,从而实现主动式搅流,无需额外设置电机等模块,也不需要配置供电模块,有效节省安装空间,提高整体结构的紧凑型,同时也无需采用较高等级的防水密封措施,有效简化了结构的复杂度,降低制造成本和维护难度,也能够提高整体的安全性,有效提高用户的使用体验。

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of kitchenware, and more particularly to an active agitation type washing sink. Background Technology

[0002] As people's demands for food cleanliness continue to increase, traditional manual soaking and washing methods can no longer meet the needs of modern kitchens for efficient and thorough cleaning. Therefore, integrating water agitation functions into sinks has gradually become a research and development hotspot in the kitchen appliance field. By driving water flow to ensure full contact between food and water, cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect can be effectively improved.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN111074981A discloses a kitchen-specific double-sink vegetable washing device, which includes a sink body. A first sink and a second sink are respectively located at both ends of the bottom inner wall of the sink body. Four sides of the top outer edge of the sink body are welded with groove edges, and rubber pads are bonded to the bottom outer wall of each groove edge. A support edge is welded to one side of each groove edge. A knife groove is cut in the middle of the top outer wall of the sink body. A faucet is threadedly connected to one side of the top outer wall of the sink body. A vegetable washing mechanism is located on the bottom outer wall of the first sink, and a stirring mechanism is located inside the sink. Through the stirring plate mechanism, a servo motor drives a transmission shaft, which in turn causes the stirring rod to rotate the stirring plate, agitating the water flow. The rotation of the water flow thus washes the vegetables.

[0004] However, the installation of the motor and stirring components not only takes up additional installation space under the water tank, limiting the overall compact design, but also requires a high level of waterproof sealing measures because the motor, as an electrical component, is in a humid environment for a long time. This not only increases the structural complexity and manufacturing cost, but also makes it more difficult to maintain and replace parts later. In case of seal failure, there are also safety hazards such as electric leakage. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an active agitation type cleaning tank, which solves the problems of existing technologies that use motors and agitation components to agitate food during the cleaning process. These technologies require a large amount of additional installation space for the motors and agitation components, as well as a high-quality sealing structure, resulting in a complex overall structure, high cost, difficult maintenance, and potential safety hazards.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: This invention provides an active agitation type cleaning water tank, which includes: The tank body has a cleaning tank inside; A drain shell is provided at the drain hole of the cleaning tank and has a water outlet and a water inlet. The water outlet is connected to the drain pipe and the water inlet is connected to the cleaning tank. A flow guiding component is provided inside the drain shell to spirally guide the water flow entering through the inlet hole to the outlet hole and allow it to circulate into the cleaning tank. A cleaning wheel is rotatably connected to the side of the drain housing facing the cleaning tank; A drive component is disposed within the flow guiding component. One end of the drive component is connected to the cleaning wheel, and the other end extends to the water outlet to drive the cleaning wheel to rotate under the impact of the water flow.

[0007] Optionally, the driving component includes: A connecting rod is inserted through the flow guiding assembly and rotatably connected to the flow guiding assembly. One end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the cleaning wheel, and the other end extends to the water outlet. A drive wheel is located at one end of the connecting rod near the water outlet. The drive wheel can drive the connecting rod and the cleaning wheel to rotate synchronously under the impact of water flow.

[0008] Optionally, the drive wheel has a plurality of spaced-apart drive blades, the angle between the side of the drive blade and the axis of the connecting rod being greater than 0° so that the side of the drive blade can face the spiraling water flow to withstand the impact of the water flow.

[0009] Optionally, the cleaning wheel has a plurality of spaced cleaning blades, the angle between the side of the cleaning blade and the axis of the connecting rod being greater than 0° so that the side of the cleaning blade is inclined to agitate the water in the cleaning tank (11).

[0010] Optionally, the cleaning wheel has a baffle, and the bottom sides of the plurality of cleaning blades are fixed to the top wall of the baffle to improve the strength of the cleaning blades.

[0011] Optionally, the baffle is spaced apart from the top wall of the drainage shell.

[0012] Optionally, the flow guiding component includes: A flow guide shell is disposed inside the drainage shell and covers the water outlet hole, and a flow guide hole is provided on the side of the flow guide shell near the drainage shell; A flow guide plate is disposed on the outside of the flow guide shell and extends spirally downward to form a spiral flow channel. The upper end of the flow guide plate corresponds to the water inlet hole, and the lower end corresponds to the flow guide hole to guide the water flow through the spiral flow channel into the flow guide shell to impact the drive component.

[0013] Optionally, the flow guide holes are distributed in multiple circumferentially along the flow guide shell.

[0014] Optionally, the water inlet holes are located at the edge of the top wall of the drainage shell and are distributed at intervals, corresponding to the guide plate.

[0015] Optionally, the active agitation cleaning tank further includes: A circulation pipe, one end of which is connected to the drain pipe; The nozzle is disposed on the side wall of the cleaning tank; The water inlet pipe is connected to the other end of the nozzle and the circulation pipe; A control valve is used to control the opening or closing of the circulation pipe and the drain pipe.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are: During food washing, water is added to the washing tank to immerse the food. During the washing process, the water can circulate, meaning that some water can enter the drain shell through the inlet and flow spirally along the guide component to the outlet. The spiral flow of water can accelerate the flow, allowing the water to flow at high speed through the outlet. The spiral flow of water will also impact the drive component from the side, causing the drive component to rotate due to circumferential thrust. The drive component will drive the washing wheel to rotate synchronously. At this time, the washing tank is simultaneously filled with water and drained. The drain will continuously impact the drive component, which will keep the washing wheel rotating. As the washing wheel rotates, it can agitate the water in the washing tank, allowing the food soaked in the water to tumble fully, ensuring that mud and other adhering substances on the surface of the food are washed away by the water flow. Therefore, this active agitation washing tank utilizes a flow guide component to form a spiral drainage system during the food washing process. This not only uses the centrifugal force generated by the water flow in the spiral to retain sediment such as mud and sand in the drainage shell, preventing them from circulating back into the washing tank, but also accelerates the water flow. When the water flows through the outlet, it impacts the side of the drive component, generating a driving force around its circumference. This causes the drive component to rotate and simultaneously drives the washing wheel to rotate, agitating the water in the washing tank. This achieves active agitation without the need for additional motors or power supply modules, effectively saving installation space and improving the overall compactness of the structure. It also eliminates the need for high-level waterproof sealing measures, simplifying the structure, reducing manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulty, and improving overall safety and user experience.

[0022] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention provides an active agitation type cleaning water tank.

[0024] The active agitation type cleaning tank includes a tank body 1, a drain shell 2, a flow guiding component 3, a cleaning wheel 4, and a drive component 5. The tank body 1 contains a cleaning tank 11; the drain shell 2 is located at the drain hole of the cleaning tank 11 and has a water outlet 21 and a water inlet 22. The water outlet 21 is connected to a drain pipe 13, and the water inlet 22 is connected to the cleaning tank 11; the flow guiding component 3 is located in the drain shell 2 and is used to spirally guide the water entering through the water inlet 22 to the water outlet 21 and circulate it into the cleaning tank 11; the cleaning wheel 4 is rotatably connected to the side of the drain shell 2 facing the cleaning tank 11; the drive component 5 is located in the flow guiding component 3, one end of the drive component 5 is connected to the cleaning wheel 4, and the other end extends to the water outlet 21 to drive the cleaning wheel 4 to rotate under the impact of the water flow.

[0025] During food washing, water is poured into the washing tank 11 to immerse the food in the water. During the washing process, the water can circulate, meaning that some water can enter the drain shell 2 through the water inlet 22 and flow spirally along the guide component 3 to the water outlet 21. The spiral flow of the water can accelerate the flow, allowing the water to flow at high speed through the water outlet 21. The spiral water flow will also impact the drive component 5 from the side, causing the drive component 5 to rotate due to the circumferential thrust. The drive component 5 will drive the washing wheel 4 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the washing tank 11 is simultaneously filled with water and drained. The drain will continuously impact the drive component 5, which will cause the washing wheel 4 to rotate continuously. As the washing wheel 4 rotates, it can agitate the water in the washing tank 11, allowing the food soaked in the water to tumble fully, ensuring that the mud and other adhering substances on the surface of the food are washed away by the water flow. Therefore, during the food washing process, this active agitation washing tank utilizes the flow guide component 3 to form a spiral drainage system. This not only uses the centrifugal force generated by the water flow in the spiral to retain sediment such as mud and sand in the drainage shell 2, preventing them from circulating back into the washing tank 11, but also accelerates the water flow. When the water flows through the outlet 21, it impacts the side of the drive component 5, generating a driving force around it. This causes the drive component 5 to rotate and simultaneously drive the washing wheel 4 to rotate, thus agitating the water in the washing tank 11. This achieves active agitation without the need for additional motors or power supply modules, effectively saving installation space and improving the overall compactness of the structure. It also eliminates the need for high-level waterproof sealing measures, simplifying the structure, reducing manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulty, and improving overall safety and user experience.

[0026] Specifically, the tank 1 includes a main tank 12 and a washing tank 11 spaced apart. The main tank 12 has a larger volume and is equipped with a separate faucet 121 for users to wash other items. The washing tank 11 has a smaller volume so that the water level can be quickly raised after water is added to the washing tank 11, allowing for repeated soaking of food. The bottom wall of the washing tank 11 has a through hole as a drainage hole, and a drainage shell 2 is embedded in the drainage hole. The drainage shell 2 includes a shell 23 and a top cover 24. The shell 23 can be composed of multiple cylindrical segments that are sequentially assembled. The top cover 24 is inserted into the top wall of the shell 23 to facilitate quick assembly and disassembly of the drainage shell 2, making it easy to quickly and effectively clean the mud, sand, bacteria, etc. retained inside the drainage shell 2.

[0027] The flow guiding component 3 is located inside the drain housing 2 and can be fixedly connected to the top cover 24 to facilitate overall disassembly and release the space inside the drain housing 2. It can also be fixed to the housing 23 to improve the overall installation stability. A through hole 22 is formed through the top wall of the top cover 24 as a water inlet hole 22. The water inlet hole 22 can be composed of multiple strip holes or a single large through hole. The water flowing into the water inlet hole 22 will fall directly onto the flow guiding component 3, which has a spirally extending flow channel to spirally guide the water flow to the water outlet hole 21.

[0028] The spiraling water flow continues its spiral flow due to inertia as it approaches the water outlet 21, thus impacting the drive assembly 5 from the side. The drive assembly 5 includes multiple plate-like structures, the sides of which are oriented towards the direction of water flow, allowing the water to impact their sides and thus drive the drive assembly 5 to rotate. The drive assembly 5 then synchronously drives the cleaning wheel 4 to rotate. The cleaning wheel 4 is placed on the top wall of the top cover 24 and rotates along with the drive assembly 5, thereby agitating the water in the cleaning tank 11.

[0029] Optionally, the drive assembly 5 includes a connecting rod 51 and a drive wheel 52. The connecting rod 51 passes through the flow guide assembly 3 and is rotatably connected to the flow guide assembly 3. One end of the connecting rod 51 is fixedly connected to the cleaning wheel 4, and the other end extends to the water outlet 21. The drive wheel 52 is located at the end of the connecting rod 51 near the water outlet 21. The drive wheel 52 can drive the connecting rod 51 and the cleaning wheel 4 to rotate synchronously under the impact of water flow.

[0030] Specifically, the connecting rod 51 extends vertically, and its upper end passes through the flow guide assembly 3 and the top cover 24 before being fixedly connected to the lower end of the cleaning tank 11. The two are coaxially arranged, and the fixing method can be welding, snap-fitting, or bolt connection. The lower end of the connecting rod 51 is provided with a drive wheel 52. The drive wheel 52 has multiple sides that correspond to the direction of water flow to withstand the impact of the water flow and generate rotation. When the drive wheel 52 rotates, it synchronously drives the connecting rod 51 to rotate, and the connecting rod 51 synchronously drives the cleaning wheel 4 to rotate, so as to smoothly agitate the water in the cleaning tank 11.

[0031] Optionally, the drive wheel 52 has multiple spaced drive blades, and the angle between the side of the drive blade and the axis of the connecting rod 51 is greater than 0° so that the side of the drive blade can face the spiral flow of water to withstand the impact of the water flow.

[0032] Specifically, the drive blades are all arranged at an angle, with their sides intersecting the axis of the connecting rod 51, resulting in an angle greater than 0°. This allows the sides of the drive blades to align with the flow direction of the spiral water flow. When the spiral water flow is sufficiently accelerated and approaches the outlet hole 21, it can directly impact the drive blades, effectively enhancing the impact effect on the drive blades during drainage. This allows multiple drive blades to smoothly drive the connecting rod 51 to rotate under the impact of the water flow. The specific angle between the drive blades and the axis of the connecting rod 51 is not limited in this invention and can be designed according to the actual spiral flow direction of the water flow.

[0033] Optionally, the cleaning wheel 4 has a plurality of spaced cleaning blades 41, the angle between the side of the cleaning blades 41 and the axis of the connecting rod 51 being greater than 0° so that the side of the cleaning blades 41 is inclined to agitate the water in the cleaning tank 11.

[0034] Specifically, the cleaning blade 41 can be arranged parallel to the drive blade, so that the cleaning blade 41 is inclined, and the angle between the side of the cleaning blade 41 and the axis of the connecting rod 51 is greater than 0°. When the cleaning blade 41 rotates, it can not only smoothly stir the water in the cleaning tank 11, but also slide across the water body using its inclined side, thereby reducing the rotational resistance that the cleaning blade 41 bears when rotating, and improving the rotatability of the cleaning blade 41.

[0035] Optionally, the cleaning wheel 4 has a baffle 42, and the bottom sides of a plurality of cleaning blades 41 are fixed to the top wall of the baffle 42 to improve the strength of the cleaning blades 41.

[0036] Specifically, the baffle 42 is disc-shaped, with multiple cleaning blades 41 spaced apart on its top wall. These blades can be integrated into a single unit to improve overall stability. The bottom wall of the baffle 42 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 51. Integrating the multiple cleaning blades 41 together via the baffle 42 increases the overall strength of the cleaning wheel 4, allowing for a smaller overall size design while still effectively agitating the water in the cleaning tank 11 during rotation. To further enhance the rotatability of the cleaning wheel 4, the baffle 42 and the top wall of the drain shell 2 are spaced apart. That is, the bottom wall of the baffle 42 and the top cover 24 of the drain shell 2 are spaced apart, preventing friction between the baffle 42 and the top cover 24, thus further reducing the frictional force experienced by the baffle 42 during rotation.

[0037] Optionally, the flow guiding assembly 3 includes a flow guiding shell 31 and a flow guiding plate 32. The flow guiding shell 31 is disposed inside the drain shell 2 and covers the water outlet 21. A flow guiding hole 33 is opened on the side of the flow guiding shell 31 near the drain shell 2. The flow guiding plate 32 is disposed outside the flow guiding shell 31 and extends spirally downward to form a spiral flow channel. The upper end of the flow guiding plate 32 corresponds to the water inlet 22, and its lower end corresponds to the flow guiding hole 33 to guide the water flow through the spiral flow channel to the impact drive assembly 5 inside the flow guiding shell 31.

[0038] Specifically, the flow guide shell 31 is cylindrical and can be fixed inside the shell 23 of the drainage shell 2. The flow guide shell 31 and the drainage shell 2 can be integrated to ensure good connection stability. An installation sleeve 321 can be inserted into the outer side of the flow guide shell 31. A spirally extending flow guide plate 32 is provided on the outer side of the installation sleeve 321. The installation sleeve 321 can be fixedly connected to the top cover 24, so that the installation sleeve 321 and the flow guide plate 32 can be disassembled and assembled simultaneously when the top cover 24 is disassembled and assembled. A positioning plate 25 is also provided inside the drainage shell 2. The positioning plate 25 can abut against the top cover 24 and engage with the installation sleeve 321, thereby further improving the installation stability of the flow guide plate 32 and the top cover 24.

[0039] A through hole 33 is formed in the guide shell 31. The guide hole 33 is located on the lower side of the guide plate 32 so that the water flows through the spiral flow channel and has a sufficient flow velocity before flowing into the guide hole 33, ensuring that the water flow can form a sufficient impact effect on the drive component 5. In order to ensure the uniformity of the water flow impact, multiple guide holes 33 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the guide shell 31. This allows the water flow to fully enter the guide shell 31 from the circumference to produce a strong impact effect on the drive component 5.

[0040] Optionally, the water inlet holes 22 are located at the edge of the top wall of the drain shell 2 and are distributed at intervals, corresponding to the guide plate 32.

[0041] Specifically, the water inlet holes 22 are distributed at the edge of the top cover 24 of the drain shell 2, so that the water inlet holes 22 and the water outlet holes 21 are staggered and the water inlet holes 22 are spaced apart, so that the water flow can gradually enter the drain shell 2 and fall directly into the spiral flow channel on the upper side of the guide plate 32, ensuring that the water flow can smoothly achieve spiral flow.

[0042] Optionally, the active agitation cleaning tank also includes a circulation pipe 6, a nozzle 7, an inlet pipe 8, and a control valve 9. One end of the circulation pipe 6 is connected to the drain pipe 13; the nozzle 7 is disposed on the side wall of the cleaning tank 11; the inlet pipe 8 is connected to the nozzle 7 and the other end of the circulation pipe 6; the control valve 9 is used to control the opening or closing of the circulation pipe 6 and the drain pipe 13.

[0043] Specifically, a drain pump 14 is installed on the drain pipe 13 to actively extract water from the cleaning tank 11, which can further increase the impact effect of the water flow on the drive component 5. A circulation pipe 6 is installed at the end of the drain pipe 13 away from the outlet. The circulation pipe 6 is connected to the water inlet pipe 8. The water inlet pipe 8 is connected to the water injection pipe and the nozzle 7. The nozzle 7 is embedded in the inner wall of the cleaning tank 11.

[0044] Multiple control valves 9 can be installed, or only one can be installed at the connection of the pipeline. In this embodiment, control valves 9 are installed on the circulation pipe 6, drain pipe 13, and inlet pipe 8. The control valves 9 can be manual valves or solenoid valves. The control valves 9 can control the opening or closing of the circulation pipe 6, inlet pipe 8, and drain pipe 13, so that the water flow in the cleaning tank 11 can form different patterns. When the drain pipe 13 and the inlet pipe 8 are connected, a continuous water inlet and continuous water outlet cleaning pattern can be formed in the cleaning tank 11. When only the drain pipe 13 is connected, the water in the cleaning tank 11 can be discharged unidirectionally. When only the circulation pipe 6 is connected, a circulating cleaning pattern can be formed to recycle the water in the cleaning tank 11. Specifically, it can be controlled according to the actual needs of the cleaning process. A control panel 15 and a liquid level sensor 16 can be installed on the side of the cleaning tank 11. The liquid level sensor 16 can detect the liquid level in real time, and different cleaning modes can be controlled by the user through the control panel.

Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here.
