[0023] Now the utility model is further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the utility model in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the utility model.

[0024] The following is a further description of the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, a convenient sweet potato cleaning device described in the utility model is characterized in that it includes a cleaning box 1, a limiting plate 4 is provided in the middle of the cleaning box 1, a baffle 5 is inserted in the limiting plate 4, and the cleaning box 1 is divided into a soaking chamber 2 and a cleaning chamber 3 by the baffle 5, and a material moving plate 11 is arranged obliquely downward in the soaking chamber 2, and the end away from the cleaning chamber 3 is higher than the end close to the cleaning chamber 3, and springs 13 are provided at both ends of the lower surface of the material moving plate 11, and the spring 13 away from the cleaning chamber 3 is installed on a support plate 12, and the material moving plate 11 can vibrate up and down by being driven by a vibration mechanism, and a feeding pump 7 and a water pump 8 are provided on the side wall of the cleaning box 1, and the discharge ports of the feeding pump 7 and the water pump 8 are both connected to the soaking chamber 2, and the feed port of the feeding pump 7 is connected to the salicylic acid tank 6 located on the side wall of the cleaning box 1. 6 is a black organic glass box, which is provided with a soaking chamber 2 and a cleaning chamber 3, and a movable baffle 5 is provided between the soaking chamber 2 and the cleaning chamber 3. After cleaning is completed, the baffle 5 is removed. Since a downwardly inclined material transfer plate 11 is provided in the soaking chamber 2, the sweet potatoes in the soaking chamber 2 will automatically roll into the cleaning chamber 3, so that the sweet potatoes can be automatically transferred, which saves manpower. The sweet potatoes can be smoothly transferred from the soaking chamber by the vibration of the material transfer plate 11, so that the transfer speed can be further accelerated. By adding salicylic acid during soaking, applying exogenous salicylic acid can improve the disease resistance of the sweet potatoes, has a good antiseptic and fresh-keeping effect, can improve the storage effect and shelf life of the sweet potatoes, and the sweet potatoes can be cleaned by salicylic acid soaking technology, which can reduce the occurrence of diseases during sweet potato storage, resist the infection of pathogens, and reduce the rot rate of sweet potatoes during storage.

[0026] Furthermore, the vibration mechanism includes a rotating roller 15, and the side wall of the rotating roller 15 is rotatably connected to a rotating drum 16. The rotation of the rotating roller 15 can drive the rotating drum 16 to rotate along the rotating roller 15. When the rotating drum 16 rotates to the position of the material moving plate 11, the material moving plate 11 can be driven to move upward. The self-rotation of the rotating drum 16 can reduce the friction between the rotating drum 16 and the material moving plate 11. After the rotating drum 16 rotates, the material moving plate 11 can be reset by the spring 13, so that the material moving plate 11 can continuously vibrate up and down.

[0027] Furthermore, a fixed plate 10 is provided at a position corresponding to the baffle 5 in the cleaning box 1, and the contact surface between the baffle 5 and the fixed plate 10 is an inclined surface. When the spring 13 is in a natural state, the lower surface of the moving plate 11 close to the cleaning chamber 3 is not lower than the upper surface of the fixed plate 10, which can be used to avoid the situation where the sweet potato is stuck in the fixed plate 10 due to the lower surface of the moving plate 11 close to the cleaning chamber 3 being lower than the upper surface of the fixed plate 10.

[0028] Furthermore, a stirring rod fixing plate 18 is provided in both the soaking chamber 2 and the cleaning chamber 3 , and a stirring rod 17 is provided on the stirring rod fixing plate 18 . The stirring rod 17 is driven by an external motor, and the stirring rod 17 can be used to wash the sweet potatoes.

[0029] Furthermore, the feed pump 7 and the water pump 8 are both quantitative pumps, and a stirring fan 23 is provided in the salicylic acid tank 6, and the stirring fan 23 is driven by an external motor. An electric heating rod 14 is provided in the salicylic acid tank 6. The feed pump 7 and the water pump 8 are set as quantitative pumps, so as to quantitatively add salicylic acid and water into the soaking chamber, so that the concentration of the solution used for soaking sweet potatoes is constant at 5mmol / L, eliminating a series of processes such as concentration detection, and is more convenient and efficient to use. It has been found through research that salicylic acid powder is slightly soluble in cold water and easily soluble in hot water. Therefore, a stirring fan 23 and an electric heating rod 14 are provided in the salicylic acid tank 6, and the temperature in the salicylic acid tank is kept constant by the electric heating rod, which can facilitate the dissolution of the salicylic acid powder. At the same time, the dissolution of the salicylic acid powder can be further accelerated by stirring.

[0030] Furthermore, a waste water tank 9 is provided at a position on the lower surface of the cleaning box 1 corresponding to the cleaning chamber 3 , and the waste water tank 9 is connected to the cleaning chamber 3 via a solenoid valve 19 .

[0031] Furthermore, a nozzle fixing plate 20 is provided in the cleaning chamber 3, and a high-pressure nozzle 22 is provided on the nozzle fixing plate 20. The high-pressure nozzle 22 is connected to an external water source through a water pipe 21. Water sprayed by the high-pressure nozzle 22 can be used to clean the soaked sweet potatoes.

[0032] It should be emphasized that the embodiments described in the present invention are illustrative rather than restrictive.
