Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cleaning equipment, and in particular relates to a brush cleaning machine. Background Art

[0002] In the traditional food processing industry, especially the processing industry of fruit and vegetable foods, such as canteens of units and institutions, restaurants and hotels, purchased fruit and vegetable foods must be cleaned before being processed into finished products. The cleaning, processing and transportation of fruits and vegetables are mostly manual operations, with low production efficiency and serious waste of water resources.

[0003] The current brush cleaning machine can clean both root vegetables and leafy vegetables. Replacing manual operation with machinery greatly improves production efficiency. The amount of water used is also significantly less than that used in manual cleaning. The cleaning process mainly uses the rotation of the brush to drive the vegetables and fruits to be cleaned, causing the vegetables and fruits to roll continuously, and water is sprayed to clean the vegetables and fruits.

[0004] However, in the process of washing fruits and vegetables with the existing brush washing machine, the impurities cleaned out gradually accumulate inside the washing machine as time goes by, so that the washing machine needs to be stopped for treatment after long-term use. In addition, the bottom surface of the current washing machine is mostly flat, which makes it inconvenient to manually clean the inside of the washing machine and there is a problem of cleaning dead corners.
