[0030] A pepper pretreatment device, such as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, it includes a pretreatment box 10 for pretreatment of peppers, a feed hopper 20 is installed at one end of the pretreatment box 10, and a primary cleaning mechanism 30 and a secondary cleaning mechanism 40 are installed in the pretreatment box 10; a conveyor belt 13 is installed in the pretreatment box 10, a transmission shaft 11 is installed at both ends of the conveyor belt 13, and a cleaning brush 14 is installed just above the middle of the conveyor belt 13; the primary cleaning mechanism 30 and the secondary cleaning mechanism 40 both include a water inlet pipe 31, a transverse pipe 32 located just above the conveyor belt 13 is installed at the bottom of the water inlet pipe 31, and a plurality of flushing nozzles 33 arranged evenly and equidistantly are installed at the bottom of the outer wall of the transverse pipe 32, and the conveyor belt 13 installed in the pretreatment box 10 provides power for the transmission of the peppers, so that the peppers can pass through the cleaning mechanism in an orderly manner, thereby improving the processing efficiency. The cleaning brush 14 installed just above the middle of the conveyor belt 13 can brush the peppers during the conveying process, which enhances the cleaning effect; the horizontal pipe 32 installed at the bottom of the water inlet pipe 31 is located just above the conveyor belt 13, so that the flushing nozzle 33 can directly flush the peppers on the conveyor belt, which improves the cleaning effect. Several flushing nozzles 33 evenly and equidistantly installed at the bottom of the outer wall of the horizontal pipe 32 ensure the uniformity of flushing; the primary cleaning mechanism 30 and the secondary cleaning mechanism 40 installed in the pretreatment box 10 ensure the cleanliness of the peppers through a two-stage cleaning method. Each level of the cleaning mechanism includes a water inlet pipe 31, which provides a stable water source for the cleaning process.

[0031] Furthermore, columns 12 are installed at the four top corners of the bottom of the pretreatment box 10, so that the pretreatment box 10 is stably supported on the ground as a whole, avoiding shaking or deformation caused by the heavy weight of the box, and ensuring the stability and safety of the entire pretreatment process.

[0032] Among them, a discharge hopper 16 is installed at the bottom of the end of the pretreatment box 10 away from the feed hopper 20, which is convenient for the orderly discharge of the washed peppers, making the entire pretreatment process smoother. An inclined base 15 is installed at the bottom of the pretreatment box 10. The discharge hopper 16 is located at the lower end of the inclined base 15, which can receive the flushed sewage and keep the working environment clean.

[0033] Specifically, the surface of the conveyor belt 13 is provided with anti-skid protrusions, which are made of food-grade silicone material, and the height of the protrusions is 1-3 mm, which not only increases the friction between the peppers and the conveyor belt, preventing the peppers from sliding during the conveying process, but also ensures food safety and meets the requirements of food processing. The height of the anti-skid protrusions is controlled at 1-3 mm, which ensures the anti-skid effect without causing damage to the peppers.

[0034] It is worth noting that the number of the cleaning brushes 14 is at least 2 groups and they are arranged side by side, which increases the cleaning area and cleaning strength.

[0035] In addition, a vibration motor 21 is installed at the bottom of the feed hopper 20, which can evenly disperse the accumulated peppers through vibration to prevent blockage, and also help the peppers to better enter the pretreatment box 10, thereby improving the pretreatment efficiency.

[0036] The working principle of the pepper pretreatment device is as follows: the operator starts the transmission system of the pretreatment box 10, the conveyor belt 13 starts to operate, and the water inlet switches of the primary cleaning mechanism 30 and the secondary cleaning mechanism 40 are turned on, so that water flows into the cross pipe 32 through the water inlet pipe 31 and is sprayed out from the flushing nozzle 33, and the peppers to be treated are put into the pretreatment box 10 through the feed hopper 20. As the conveyor belt 13 moves, the peppers pass through the primary cleaning mechanism 30, the cleaning brush 14 and the secondary cleaning mechanism 40 in sequence. When the peppers pass through the primary cleaning mechanism 30, the water sprayed from the flushing nozzle 33 directly rinses the peppers, and the cleaning brush 14 preliminarily brushes the peppers to remove impurities attached to the surface. The peppers continue to be conveyed to the secondary cleaning mechanism 40 for more in-depth flushing to ensure cleanliness. The cleaned peppers pass through the end of the conveyor belt 13 and are discharged from the pretreatment box 10.

[0037] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only preferred examples of the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
