[0002] Potato is a kind of vegetable that the masses like to eat. Potato has high nutritional value and rich starch content. The starch in potato can be extracted for restaurants or users to eat. However, potatoes need to be soiled and cleaned before eating. Most of the existing soil removal devices before potato processing use a rotating brush roller to clean potatoes. For example, a soil removal device for potato processing disclosed in a Chinese patent (Announcement No.: CN217089486U) is provided with a cleaning tank at the top of the cleaning tank, and a plurality of straight rods are provided at the top of the cleaning tank. The outer surface of the straight rod has soft brushes. The operator drops the potato from the cleaning tank, and the brush on the outer surface of the straight rod sweeps away some of the soil blocks of the potato, so that the potato falls on the conveyor belt, and then falls from the conveyor belt to the drum screen to further remove the soil blocks.

However, due to the inconsistent size of potatoes, some potatoes with too large diameters are easily stuck on the straight rod, requiring operators to clean them manually, and some potatoes with too small diameters are easily dropped directly from the straight rod and cannot come into contact with the brush. The dirt on the potatoes cannot be effectively cleaned, and the potato size needs to be screened in advance, which increases the labor intensity of the operators. In addition, the potatoes that have been screened still need to be cleaned, making the potato cleaning work inconvenient.

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0025] See also Figures 1 to 4 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

A plurality of rolling shafts 18 are equidistantly connected to one side of the plate 15 for rotation, a brush roller 19 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rolling shaft 18, a feed port 16 is provided on one side of the cleaning cylinder 3, a drop port 17 is provided on one side of the baffle 15, the feed port 16 is flush with the drop port 17, a fixed gear 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner cavity of the cleaning cylinder 3, a transmission gear 24 is meshed on the outer edge of the fixed gear 14, the inner cavity of the transmission gear 24 is fixedly connected to the outside of the cleaning shaft 11, a plurality of cleaning rods 20 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cleaning shaft 11, a brush plate 23 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cleaning rod 20, a soil drop port 13 is provided at the top of the circumference of the cleaning cylinder 3, a filter is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the soil drop port 13.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, after the operator puts the potatoes into the cleaning barrel 3 through the feed port 16 and the drop port 17, the feed port 16 and the drop port 13 are blocked and the motor 4 is turned on to prevent the potatoes and the soil from flying out of the cleaning barrel 3 when the potatoes rotate in the cleaning barrel 3, so that the motor 4 drives the coupling 5 of the output shaft to rotate, the coupling 5 drives the driving gear 6 to rotate, and the driving gear 6 drives the meshing outer gear ring 7 to rotate, so that the cleaning barrel 3 rotates synchronously. When the cleaning barrel 3 drives the potatoes to roll, it can drive the rolling shaft 18 and the brush roller 19 to rotate, further improving the cleaning efficiency of the soil on the surface of the potatoes, and the brush roller 19 can prevent the potatoes from contacting the soil under cleaning to avoid secondary pollution. At the same time, the cleaning barrel 3 drives the fixed gear 14 to rotate synchronously, and the fixed gear 1 4 drives the meshing transmission gear 24 to rotate, the side plate 2 can prevent the dust falling from the potatoes from entering between the fixed gear 14 and the transmission gear 24, affecting the meshing rotation of the fixed gear 14 and the transmission gear 24, and the transmission gear 24 drives the cleaning shaft 11 to rotate, so that the cleaning rod 20 and the brush plate 23 outside the cleaning shaft 11 rotate, contact with the potatoes in the cleaning cylinder 3, and clean the soil blocks on the surface of the potatoes in the cleaning cylinder 3. After cleaning, the potatoes are discharged from one side of the cleaning cylinder 3, and the soil blocks on the surface of the potatoes are discharged from the soil outlet 13. The filter screen in the inner cavity of the soil outlet 13 can prevent the potatoes from being discharged from the soil outlet 13 into the soil blocks. The cleaning cylinder 3 and the cleaning rod 20 rotate in coordination, which can improve the removal rate of the soil blocks on the surface of the potatoes and improve the cleaning efficiency of the potatoes.
[0028] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the gear tooth ratio of the fixed gear 14 and the transmission gear 24 is 1:5, the inner cavity of the cleaning rod 20 is fixedly connected with a buffer spring 21, the other end of the buffer spring 21 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 22, and the other side of the connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected with a brush plate 23.
[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, since the gear ratio of the fixed gear 14 and the transmission gear 24 is 1:5, the cleaning shaft 11 and the cleaning rod 20 rotate slowly in the cleaning barrel 3, thereby preventing the cleaning rod 20 from rotating too fast and damaging the potato surface. When the brush plate 23 contacts the potato, the brush plate 23 can drive the connecting rod 22 to compress the buffer spring 21. The buffer spring 21 is compressed to provide a buffering force, thereby reducing the impact and friction of the brush on the surface of the brush plate 23 on the potato, thereby preventing the potato skin from being damaged and reducing the quality of the product.
[0030] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 4As shown, fixing grooves 8 are respectively provided on both sides of the cleaning barrel 3, the inner cavity of the support seat 9 is rotatably connected with a bearing 12, one side of the bearing 12 is fixedly connected to an auxiliary wheel 10, and the auxiliary wheel 10 can be snapped into the fixing groove 8, and the fixing groove 8 and the support seat 9 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the cleaning barrel 3.
[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cleaning barrel 3 rotates, the fixed groove 8 outside the cleaning barrel 3 rotates with the auxiliary wheel 10, and the auxiliary wheel 10 drives the bearing 12 to rotate, thereby reducing the friction force when the cleaning barrel 3 rotates, and the support seat 9 is symmetrically arranged along the cleaning barrel 3, so that the support seat 9 can support the cleaning barrel 3 to prevent the cleaning barrel 3 from shifting when rotating.
[0032] Working principle: After the operator puts the potatoes into the cleaning cylinder 3 through the feed port 16 and the drop port 17, the feed port 16 and the drop port 13 are blocked and the motor 4 is turned on, so that the motor 4 drives the coupling 5 of the output shaft to rotate, the coupling 5 drives the driving gear 6 to rotate, and the driving gear 6 drives the meshing outer gear ring 7 to rotate, so that the cleaning cylinder 3 rotates synchronously. When the cleaning cylinder 3 drives the potatoes to roll, it can drive the rolling shaft 18 and the brush roller 19 to rotate. At the same time, the cleaning cylinder 3 drives the fixed gear 14 to rotate synchronously, and the fixed gear 14 drives the meshing transmission gear 24 to rotate, the side plate 2 can prevent dust falling from the potatoes from entering between the fixed gear 14 and the transmission gear 24, affecting the meshing rotation of the fixed gear 14 and the transmission gear 24, and the transmission gear 24 drives the cleaning shaft 11 to rotate, so that the cleaning rod 20 and the brush plate 23 outside the cleaning shaft 11 rotate and contact with the potatoes in the cleaning barrel 3, the brush plate 23 can drive the connecting rod 22 to compress the buffer spring 21, and after cleaning, the potatoes are discharged from one side of the cleaning barrel 3.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it.
