The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] The utility model embodiment provides a walnut processing cleaning device, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the cleaning device for walnut processing comprises: a box body 1, wherein a cleaning tank 2 for cleaning walnuts is arranged in the box body 1, and a plurality of ultrasonic transducers 3 are arranged on the inner surface of the cleaning tank 2; a rotating shaft 4, wherein the rotating shaft 4 is rotatably installed in the cleaning tank 2; a net box 5 for containing walnuts, wherein the net box 5 is arranged in the cleaning tank 2, and the two ends of the net box 5 are fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 4; a motor 6 for driving the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, wherein the motor 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the box body 1, and the output shaft of the motor 6 is fixedly connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 4; a water spray pipe 7 for spraying cleaning water, wherein the water spray pipe 7 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 2; a sewage pipe 8 for discharging sewage, wherein the sewage pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank 2; and a filtering mechanism for filtering the cleaning sewage, wherein the filtering mechanism is arranged in the box body 1.

[0022] It should be noted that during the walnut processing, cleaning is the first step to ensure the quality of walnuts. However, traditional walnut cleaning methods mostly rely on manual or simple mechanical devices; manual cleaning usually involves workers manually placing walnuts into a cleaning pool or bucket and using a brush or water flow to remove impurities such as dirt and sand on the surface. Although this method can remove impurities on the surface of walnuts in a relatively detailed manner, it has the following obvious shortcomings: manual cleaning requires handling walnuts one by one, which is slow and difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production; workers need to repeat the cleaning action for a long time, which makes them easily tired, affecting work efficiency and health; with the increase in labor costs, the cost of manual cleaning is also increasing, increasing the production cost of enterprises; in order to improve the cleaning efficiency, some enterprises have adopted simple mechanical cleaning devices, such as rotary brushing machines or spray cleaning machines; these devices have improved the cleaning efficiency to a certain extent, but there are still the following problems: these devices usually only use one or two cleaning methods, such as rotary brushing or spraying cleaning, which are difficult to deal with different types and degrees of stains; for stubborn stains and impurities on the surface of walnuts, a single cleaning method is often difficult to completely remove, affecting the overall quality of walnuts; walnuts of different varieties and specifications have differences in shape, size, surface characteristics, etc., and simple mechanical cleaning devices are often difficult to adapt to these differences, resulting in poor cleaning effects; the existence of the above problems not only affects the overall quality of walnuts, but also restricts the further development of the walnut processing industry. As consumers have higher and higher requirements for food quality and safety, higher requirements are also put forward for the cleaning process in the walnut processing process. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop a cleaning device that is efficient, automated, has good cleaning effects, and causes little damage to the walnut surface;

[0023] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is the outer shell of the entire cleaning device, which provides protection and support for the internal cleaning tank 2, which is the main place for cleaning operations; the design of the cleaning tank 2 allows a large number of walnuts to be cleaned therein, and the ultrasonic transducer 3 is installed in the inner upper part of the cleaning tank 2, which can generate ultrasonic waves. When ultrasonic waves propagate in the cleaning liquid, cavitation effects will be generated, forming countless tiny bubbles, which will release huge energy when they burst, thereby effectively removing stains and impurities on the surface of the walnuts; using ultrasonic waves for cleaning, not only has a good cleaning effect, but can completely remove stubborn stains and impurities on the surface of the walnuts, and will not damage the surface of the walnuts, ensuring the quality of the walnuts; the rotating shaft 4 is driven by the motor 6 to rotate in the cleaning tank 2. The net box 5 is used to hold walnuts, and both ends are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4, so when the rotating shaft 4 rotates, the net box 5 will also rotate; by rotating the net box 5, the walnuts can be more evenly distributed in the cleaning tank 2, and the walnuts can be continuously rolled and collided in the cleaning liquid, further improving the cleaning effect; the water spray pipe 7 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 2 for spraying cleaning water. During the cleaning process, the water spray pipe 7 will continuously spray cleaning water into the cleaning tank 2, so that the walnuts can be cleaned more thoroughly under the dual effects of ultrasound and spraying; spray cleaning increases the fluidity of the cleaning liquid, helps to wash away the stains and impurities on the surface of the walnuts, and improves the cleaning effect. The sewage pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank 2, and is used to discharge the sewage and impurities generated during the cleaning process; the sewage and impurities can be discharged from the cleaning tank 2 in time through the sewage pipe 8, ensuring the cleanliness of the cleaning liquid and improving the cleaning effect; the filtering mechanism is arranged in the box 1, and is used to filter the sewage discharged from the sewage pipe 8. The filtering mechanism can remove large particles of impurities in the sewage, so that the filtered clean water can be recycled after subsequent purification, which can reduce the waste of water resources and reduce production costs.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the filtering mechanism includes: a water collection basin 9 arranged in the box body 1 for collecting sewage; a filter basket 10 arranged in the water collection basin 9 for filtering impurities; a drain pipe 11 fixedly connected to one side of the water collection basin 9, and the water outlet end of the drain pipe 11 extends outside the box body 1.

[0025] In this embodiment, a water collection basin 9 is arranged inside the housing 1, below the cleaning tank 2, and is used to receive the sewage discharged from the cleaning tank 2. When the sewage in the cleaning tank 2 is discharged through the sewage pipe 8, it will first flow into the water collection basin 9; the design of the water collection basin 9 allows the sewage to be concentrated in one area, which is convenient for subsequent filtering and discharge treatment. At the same time, by concentrating the sewage, the pollution of the surrounding environment by the sewage during the discharge process can also be reduced; the filter basket 10 is arranged in the water collection basin 9, and its function is to filter the sewage flowing into the water collection basin 9. When the sewage flows into the water collection basin 9, the large particles of impurities therein will be intercepted by the filter basket 10, and the clean water can flow into the drain pipe 11 through the filter basket 10; through the filtering effect of the filter basket 10, the large particles of impurities in the sewage can be effectively removed, and the cleanliness of the circulating water can be improved; the drain pipe 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the water collection basin 9, and its outlet end extends out of the housing 1. The clean water filtered by the filter basket 10 will be discharged from the box 1 through the drain pipe 11 for recycling or further treatment; the design of the drain pipe 11 allows the filtered clean water to be easily discharged from the box 1 for subsequent use or treatment.

[0026] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a water pump 12 for pumping water is fixedly installed in the box body 1, and a connecting pipe 13 and a water supply pipe 14 are fixedly installed at the water outlet and water inlet ends of the water pump 12 respectively, and the water outlet end of the connecting pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the water spray pipe 7.

[0027] In this embodiment, the water pump 12 is fixedly installed in the box body 1, and its main function is to pump water into the water spray pipe 7. The water supply pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the water inlet end of the water pump 12, and its main function is to provide a stable water source for the water pump 12.

[0028] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a receiving opening for taking and placing walnuts is provided on the top of the box body 1 , and an openable and closable box cover 15 is provided in the receiving and placing opening, and the box cover 15 is hinged to the box body 1 .

[0029] In this embodiment, a take-in / take-out opening is opened on the top of the box body 1, which provides a convenient passage for the operator. The box cover 15 is arranged in the take-in / take-out opening and is connected to the box body 1 by a hinge. The box cover 15 can be opened and closed freely. When walnuts need to be put in or taken out, the operator can open the box cover 15; when the take-in / take-out operation is not required, the box cover 15 can be closed to maintain the sealing of the box body 1 and the stability of the cleaning environment.

[0030] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the net box 5 is fixedly connected to a hopper 16, a cover plate 17 is hinged on the hopper 16, a hook 19 for limiting is fixedly installed on one side of the cover plate 17, and a buckle 18 that can be engaged or separated with the hook 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the hopper 16.

[0031] In this embodiment, the cover plate 17 is hinged on the hopper 16, and is used to close the hopper 16 after feeding, so as to prevent the walnuts from splashing or overflowing from the hopper 16 during the cleaning process. When feeding is required, the operator can open the cover plate 17; after feeding is completed, the cover plate 17 is closed again, and the hook 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the cover plate 17, while the buckle 18 is fixedly installed on one side of the hopper 16. When the cover plate 17 needs to be closed, the operator can buckle the hook 19 with the buckle 18 to fix the cover plate 17; when the cover plate 17 needs to be opened, the hook 19 only needs to be separated from the buckle 18.

[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an ultrasonic generator is fixedly installed on one side of the box body 1 , and the ultrasonic generator is adapted to the ultrasonic transducer 3 .

[0033] In this embodiment, an ultrasonic generator is fixedly installed on one side of the box 1, and the generator is adapted to the ultrasonic transducer 3. The ultrasonic generator generates high-frequency electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the ultrasonic transducer 3; as the core part of the ultrasonic cleaning system, the ultrasonic generator plays a vital role. It can provide a stable ultrasonic signal, so that the ultrasonic transducer 3 can convert the electrical signal into mechanical vibration, thereby generating ultrasonic waves in the cleaning tank 2.

[0034] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, valves are provided on the sewage pipe 8 and the drainage pipe 11, and rings for lifting are symmetrically fixedly installed on the filter basket 10.

[0035] In this embodiment, valves are provided on both the sewage pipe 8 and the drainage pipe 11, and these valves can control the opening and closing of the pipes, and further control the flow of sewage and clean water. When sewage needs to be discharged, the valve on the sewage pipe 8 can be opened; when filtered clean water needs to be discharged, the valve on the drainage pipe 11 can be opened; the setting of the valves makes the discharge control of sewage and clean water more flexible and convenient.

[0036] To sum up, the cleaning device for walnut processing provided by this technical solution realizes efficient and automated cleaning of walnuts by combining ultrasonic cleaning, spray cleaning, rotary cleaning and other methods, and has the advantages of good cleaning effect and little damage to the walnut surface, and can meet the needs of the modern walnut processing industry.

[0037] Compared with the related art, the ultrasonic wave generated by the ultrasonic transducer 3 is combined with the spray cleaning of the water spray pipe 7 to form a powerful cleaning force, which can completely remove the stains and impurities on the surface of the walnuts and improve the cleaning effect. The rotating shaft 4 drives the mesh box 5 to rotate, so that the walnuts are more evenly distributed in the cleaning tank 2, and promote the tumbling and collision of the walnuts in the cleaning liquid, further improving the cleaning effect. The entire cleaning process not only improves the cleaning efficiency.
