Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, and in particular relates to food cleaning and drying equipment. Background Art

[0002] Food refers to all kinds of finished products and raw materials for human consumption or drinking, as well as items that are traditionally both food and Chinese medicinal materials, but does not include items for therapeutic purposes. Food can generally be divided into two major parts: endogenous substance components and exogenous substance components. Among them, endogenous substance components are the components of the food itself, while exogenous substance components are other components that are artificially added or mixed into the food during the entire process from processing to consumption. According to the content of food ingredients, food ingredients can also be roughly divided into eight categories, namely: protein, fat, sugar (also known as carbohydrates), inorganic matter (also known as minerals), vitamins, water, dietary fiber (collectively known as cellulose) and chitin.

[0003] In modern life, people need to eat food every day to take in the necessary nutrients, and food often needs to be washed or simply wiped before eating or making. In the prior art, people often wash the food, take it out and put it into the inside of the dryer to dry it, so as to increase the efficiency of washing and drying. However, most of the existing washing and drying devices often require the use of two devices. When using, the washed food often needs to be manually moved to the inside of the dryer by the staff, which not only increases the workload of the staff, but also has low washing and drying efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a food cleaning and drying device to solve the problem that the existing cleaning equipment and drying equipment are independent of each other, and manual food transportation is required to enable the cleaning and drying process to proceed continuously, which increases the workload of the staff and has low cleaning and drying efficiency.

[0024] Example:

[0025] like Figure 1-3 Specifically, a food washing and drying device comprises a mounting frame 1, a washing box 2 and a drying box 3, wherein the washing box 2 and the drying box 3 are both connected to the mounting frame 1, a feeding port 22 is provided at one end of the washing box 2, and the drying box 3 is connected to the other end of the washing box 2, a water storage tank is provided at the bottom of the washing box 2, a conveying mechanism is provided above the water storage tank, a nozzle 23 is provided above the conveying mechanism, and the nozzle 23 is connected to the water storage tank through a water pump.

[0026] The conveying mechanism includes a first motor 27 and a plurality of rollers 24, the rollers 24 are connected with a transmission unit, the transmission unit includes a driving gear 26 and a driven gear 28, the driven gear 28 is fixedly connected to the rotating drum, the driving gear 26 is rotatably connected to the cleaning box 2, the driving gear 26 is respectively installed in cooperation with the driven gear 28 on the transmission unit and the next transmission unit, the first motor 27 is connected to the cleaning box 2, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one of the driving gears 26.

[0027] A plurality of rubber tentacles are disposed on the surface of the roller 24 , and the rubber tentacles are arranged in a circular array.

[0028] In this embodiment, the food falls from the feed port 22 onto the roller 24 of the conveying mechanism, and the first motor 27 is started. The output end of the first motor 27 drives the driving gear 26 for transmission, and the driving gear 26 drives the driven gear 28 on the transmission unit and the next transmission unit to rotate at the same speed and in the same direction, so that multiple rollers 24 can rotate at the same speed and in the same direction, which is convenient for continuously pushing the food into the drying box 3. When the food moves toward the drying box 3, the water pump is started, and the water pump draws water from the water tank and sprays it on the surface of the food through the nozzle 23 to rinse the surface of the food. The rubber tentacles on the surface of the roller 24 increase the contact area between the roller 24 and the food, promote the movement of the food, and promote the cleaning of the food, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0029] In another embodiment of the utility model, the drying box 3 is provided with a heater 31 and a discharge port 34, and a rotating mechanism is provided inside the drying box 3, the rotating mechanism includes a second motor 35, a rotating shaft 32 and a push plate, the second motor 35 is connected to the drying box 3, one end of the rotating shaft 32 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 35, the middle part of the rotating shaft 32 is rotatably connected to the drying box 3, and the push plate is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 32.

[0030] The height of the discharge port 34 is lower than the height of the rotating shaft 32 .

[0031] An upper cover 21 is rotatably connected to the cleaning box 2, and a filter plate 25 is provided between the water storage tank and the conveying mechanism.

[0032] In this embodiment, during specific use, after the food in the washing box 2 is cleaned, it is pushed into the drying box 3 by the conveying mechanism, and the heater 31 is started. The heater 31 blows out a strong airflow, so that the moisture on the surface of the food is accelerated to flow so that it evaporates quickly. The moisture in the food is accelerated to evaporate into the air under the baking of the hot air blown by the heater 31, and the second motor 35 is started. The output end of the second motor 35 drives the rotating shaft 32 and the push plate to rotate. The push plate pushes the food in the drying box 3 to move, accelerates the flow of air around the food, and further promotes the drying of the food. The dried food is pushed by the push plate to approach the discharge port 34, and slides along the push plate under the action of gravity until it is discharged from the discharge port 34, which is convenient for collecting the food.
