[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4, a drain groove 16 is provided inside the machine body 1, a coarse filter screen 17 is installed on the inner wall of the drain groove 16. Installing the coarse filter screen 17 can block the eggs and enable the cleaned water source to flow back into the water storage cavity 13, facilitating the recycling of the used water source.

[0035] It should be noted that the conveying device 22 is driven by an external motor.

[0036] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows: First, place the eggs on the conveying device 22. At this time, an external motor drives the conveying device 22 to convey the eggs. Then, the motor 21 starts and drives the rotating roller 2 to rotate. When the eggs enter the notch 3 from the upper end of the machine body 1, the rubber gasket 12 is provided to improve the protection of the eggs and prevent them from being damaged. When the notch 3 swings to the first nozzle 7, the water pump 14 starts and is conveyed into the first drain pipe 6 through the three-way pipe 15 and ejected from multiple nozzles, so that the cleaning liquid can enter the notch 3 and come into full contact with the eggs.
