[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below. Apparently, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without making creative efforts also belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0035] As Figures 1 - 6 shown:

[0036] A livestock slaughter carcass flushing device provided by an embodiment of the present application includes a hoisting mechanism 1 and a box body 2. The box body 2 is a hollow structure with openings at both ends, and a drainage hole group 201 is provided at the bottom of the box body 2.

[0037] Further, feet are installed at the lower end of the box body 2 for supporting the box body 2.

[0038] The hoisting mechanism 1 penetrates through the box body 2, and the hoisting mechanism 1 can drive the carcass to move and rotate inside the box body 2.

[0039] A U-shaped water spraying device 3 distributed along the length direction is provided inside the box body 2, and the water spraying device 3 is connected to a water supply device (not shown in the figure).

[0040] In this embodiment, the water supply device includes a water tank. The water tank is connected to the water spraying device 3 through a water guide pipe, and a water pump is installed on the water guide pipe to provide high-pressure water for the water spraying device 3.

[0041] During use, the box body 2 is placed above the ground drainage ditch, so that the flushing wastewater can directly flow into the drainage ditch from the drainage hole group 201, facilitating the collection of flushing wastewater.

[0042] When rinsing the carcass, the lifting mechanism 1 lifts the trimmed carcass from one side of the box body 2 into the box body 2, and then the lifting mechanism 1 drives the carcass to move to the hollow part of the water spraying device 3, and drives the carcass to move and rotate in the hollow part of the water spraying device 3. At the same time, the water pump is started, and the water pump transports the water in the water tank to the water spraying device 3 through the water pipe. The two vertical sections of the water spraying device 3 spray high-pressure water towards the middle position of the box body 2, and the horizontal section of the water spraying device 3 sprays high-pressure water upwards, that is, it can spray high-pressure water towards both sides and the front of the carcass at the same time to rinse the carcass.

[0043] The livestock slaughter carcass rinsing device provided by this embodiment, by setting the lifting mechanism 1 and the box body 2, the box body 2 is a hollow structure with openings at both ends, and a drainage hole group 201 is provided at the bottom of the box body 2. The lifting mechanism 1 penetrates the box body 2, and the lifting mechanism 1 can drive the carcass to move and rotate inside the box body 2. Inside the box body 2, there is a U-shaped water spraying device 3 distributed along its length direction, and the water spraying device 3 is connected with a water supply device, so that when rinsing the carcass, not only can high-pressure water be sprayed towards both sides of the carcass while the carcass is rotating, but also since the hind legs and hocks of the carcass are usually hung on the lifting mechanism 1, that is, the front part of the carcass is downward, and after the carcass is trimmed, the neck is removed, and the front part of the carcass is approximately flat, resulting in that the high-pressure water sprayed towards both sides of the carcass cannot effectively rinse the front part of the carcass. Therefore, after the horizontal section of the water spraying device 3 sprays high-pressure water upwards, it can effectively rinse the front part of the carcass, and then can comprehensively rinse the carcass while the carcass is moving, which can not only reduce the labor intensity of the staff, but also shorten the carcass rinsing time and improve the efficiency of carcass rinsing.

[0044] In some embodiments of the present application, the water spraying device 3 includes two water delivery pipes 301 fixed inside the box body 2 and symmetrically distributed. A plurality of horizontally distributed first spray pipes 302 are connected between the two water delivery pipes 301. The upper end of each water delivery pipe 301 is connected with a plurality of vertically distributed second spray pipes 303, so that the first spray pipes 302 form the horizontal section of the U-shaped water spraying device 3, and the second spray pipes 303 form the vertical section of the water spraying device 3.

[0045] Both the first spray pipe 302 and the second spray pipe 303 are connected with a plurality of equally spaced nozzles 304. Specifically, the upper end of the first spray pipe 302 is connected with the nozzle 304, and one end of the second spray pipe 303 close to the middle position of the box body 2 is connected with the nozzle 304.

[0046] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the replacement of the nozzle 304 in the later stage, both the first spray pipe 302 and the second spray pipe 303 are detachably connected with the nozzle 304 through a threaded structure.

[0047] One of the water delivery pipes 301 is connected with the water supply device. Specifically, one of the water delivery pipes 301 is connected with a water guide pipe.

[0048] During use, the water pump pumps the water in the water tank through the water guide pipe into one of the water delivery pipes 301. The water in the water delivery pipe 301 enters the first water spray pipe 302 and the second water spray pipe 303 connected to the water delivery pipe 301. And the water in the first water spray pipe 302 enters the second water spray pipe 303 connected to the other water delivery pipe 301 through the other water delivery pipe 301. The nozzles 304 on the first water spray pipe 302 spray water upward to wash the front part of the carcass. The second water spray pipes 303 connected to the two water delivery pipes 301 spray water to both sides of the carcass. After the carcass rotates, all the second water spray pipes 303 wash the periphery of the carcass.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, in order to improve the flushing effect, two adjacent nozzles 304 along the length direction of the box body 2 are staggeredly distributed.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, each first water spray pipe 302 and each second water spray pipe 303 are rotatably connected to the water delivery pipe 301 connected thereto through a sealed bearing, and the number of the second water spray pipes 303 connected to each water delivery pipe 301 is the same as and corresponds one by one to the number of the first water spray pipes 302.

[0051] Each second water spray pipe 303 is connected to the corresponding first water spray pipe 302 through a bevel gear transmission mechanism 305.

[0052] Inside the box body 2, there is a driving mechanism 4 that can drive all the second water spray pipes 303 connected to one of the water delivery pipes 301 to swing reciprocally at the same time.

[0053] During use, the driving mechanism 4 drives the second water spray pipes 303 connected to one of the delivery pipes to swing reciprocally at the same time. After these second water spray pipes 303 swing reciprocally at the same time, they drive all the first water spray pipes 302 to swing reciprocally at the same time through the bevel gear transmission mechanism 305. After all the first water spray pipes 302 swing reciprocally at the same time, they drive all the second water spray pipes 303 connected to the other delivery pipe to swing reciprocally through the bevel gear transmission mechanism 305, that is, it can make all the nozzles 304 swing reciprocally at the same time. After all the nozzles 304 swing reciprocally, high-pressure water can be sprayed onto the carcass from different angles, avoiding some dead corners that cannot be washed, and thus further improving the effect of carcass flushing.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, the driving mechanism 4 includes a driving member 401 and a driving rod 404. The number of the driving members 401 is the same as the number of the second water spray pipes 303 connected to one of the water delivery pipes 301. The driving member 401 is provided with a sliding groove 402 distributed radially along the second water spray pipe 303, and a cylindrical rod 403 slidably connected thereto is arranged in the sliding groove 402. Specifically, the sliding groove 402 is a rounded rectangular structure.

[0055] The driving rod 404 is fixedly connected to all the cylindrical rods 403 simultaneously, and a reciprocating linear motion mechanism 405 capable of driving the driving rod 404 to perform reciprocating linear motion is connected to the driving rod 404. Specifically, the driving rod 404 is distributed along the length direction of the box body 2. The reciprocating linear motion mechanism 405 adopts an electric push rod capable of reciprocating telescoping. The electric push rod is fixed inside the box body 2, and the free end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to one end of the driving rod 404.

[0056] A driving member 401 is fixed to the upper end of each second water spray pipe 303.

[0057] In this embodiment, when the nozzle 304 can spray water along the width direction of the box body 2, the chute 402 is distributed along the width direction of the box body 2 to ensure that the driving member 401 can smoothly drive the second water spray pipe 303 to swing reciprocally.

[0058] During use, the electric push rod reciprocally telescopes to drive the driving rod 404 to perform reciprocating linear motion. After the driving rod 404 performs reciprocating linear motion, the driving rod 404 drives all the cylindrical rods 403 to reciprocally move synchronously with it. Since the cylindrical rods 403 are located in the chute 402 and the cylindrical rods 403 are slidably connected to the chute 402, after the cylindrical rods 403 reciprocally move, the cylindrical rods 403 can push the driving member 401 in the chute 402 to reciprocally swing around the center of the second water spray pipe 303, and the driving member 401 drives the second water spray pipe 303 to reciprocally swing synchronously with it.

[0059] In order to improve the smoothness of the reciprocating linear movement of the driving rod 404, in some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of limiting seats 406 slidably connected to the driving rod 404 are sleeved on the driving rod 404, and the limiting seats 406 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 2.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present application, two protective boxes 202 symmetrically distributed along the length direction are provided at the inner bottom of the box body 2. Each water delivery pipe 301 and each bevel gear transmission mechanism 305 are installed in the protective box 202 on the same side of the box body 2 as them, and each first water spray pipe 302 and each second water spray pipe 303 are rotatably connected to the corresponding protective box 202, so as to be able to protect the bevel gear transmission mechanism 305.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, the lifting mechanism 1 includes a guide rail 101 passing through the box body 2. A plurality of sliding frames 102 pulled by a rope transmission mechanism 103 are provided on the guide rail 101. The lower end of the sliding frame 102 is installed with a rotatable hook 104 through a bearing. A gear 105 is fixed on the hook 104, and a rack 106 meshing with the gear 105 and distributed along the length direction of the box body 2 is fixed to the inner top of the box body 2.

[0062] In this embodiment, the way the rope transmission mechanism pulls the sliding frame 102 is a prior art and will not be described in detail.

[0063] During use, the rope drive mechanism pulls the carriage 102 to move along the guide rail 101. When the carriage 102 enters the box body 2 and the gear 105 meshes with the rack 106, as the gear 105 moves with the carriage 102, the gear 105 rotates, the gear 105 drives the hook 104 to rotate, and the hook 104 drives the carcass suspended by it to rotate.

[0064] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than limiting it; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
