[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Embodiment 1

[0031] To solve the technical problems in the background art, the following vegetable and fruit cleaning roller brush is provided:

[0032] Combined with Figures 1-6 As shown, a vegetable and fruit cleaning roller brush provided by the present utility model includes a roller 1. A plurality of guiding components 2 are movably penetrated through the roller 1 in a circumferential array along its central axis direction. On the outer side of the roller 1 between adjacent two groups of guiding components 2, a soft brush 3 and a hard brush 4 are respectively installed. A plurality of connecting rods 5 are movably penetrated through the roller 1 in a circumferential array along its central axis direction. Specifically, it should be noted that the number of groups of guiding components 2 is an even number, and the plurality of connecting rods 5 correspond to the plurality of groups of guiding components 2 one by one. The plurality of connecting rods 5 are respectively connected to the soft brush 3 and the hard brush 4. The soft brush 3 is a nylon soft brush, and the hard brush 4 is a nylon hard brush. An adjusting mechanism 6 connected to all the plurality of connecting rods 5 is installed inside the roller 1. It is used to make adjacent two connecting rods 5 slide in opposite directions or stop sliding, so that the soft brush 3 and the hard brush 4 slide in opposite directions along the guiding components 2 respectively. Rotating shafts 7 are installed at both ends of the roller 1. One end of the adjusting mechanism 6 penetrates through one of the rotating shafts 7 and extends to the outside of the rotating shaft 7. During use, by rotating the rotating shafts 7, the roller 1 can be rotated around the two rotating shafts 7, thereby driving the plurality of soft brushes 3 and the plurality of hard brushes 4 to rotate around the roller 1. When the plurality of soft brushes 3 or the plurality of hard brushes 4 come into contact with the vegetables and fruits, the cleaning effect on the vegetables and fruits can be achieved.

[0033] By setting the soft brush 3, the hard brush 4 and the adjusting mechanism 6, during use, the adjusting mechanism 6 can make two adjacent connecting rods 5 slide in opposite directions or stop sliding, so that the soft brush 3 and the hard brush 4 slide in opposite directions along the guiding component 2 respectively, thereby adjusting the distances between the multiple soft brushes 3 and the multiple hard brushes 4 and the roller 1. Thus, it can be ensured that the multiple soft brushes 3 are on one side of the multiple hard brushes 4 close to the roller 1, or the multiple soft brushes 3 are on one side of the multiple hard brushes 4 away from the roller 1. When cleaning fruits and vegetables, according to the cleaning requirements, the multiple hard brushes 4 or the multiple soft brushes 3 can be made to contact the fruits and vegetables, so as to clean the fruits and vegetables with the multiple hard brushes 4 or the multiple soft brushes 3. Therefore, when it is necessary to clean the soil on the roots of coriander and spinach, the adjusting mechanism 6 can be used to adjust so that the multiple soft brushes 3 are on one side of the multiple hard brushes 4 close to the roller 1. At this time, when using this fruit and vegetable cleaning roller brush to clean the soil on the roots of coriander and spinach, the multiple hard brushes 4 clean the soil on the roots of coriander and spinach, thereby improving the cleaning effect and the practicality.

[0034] Embodiment 2

[0035] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment further provides the following content:

[0036] In this embodiment, the guiding component 2 includes two guiding rods 21 that both movably penetrate through the roller 1 along the central axis direction of the roller 1. Specifically, it should be noted that the two guiding rods 21 of the same set of guiding component 2 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding soft brush 3 or hard brush 4. During use, when the adjusting mechanism 6 makes two adjacent connecting rods 5 slide in opposite directions and the soft brush 3 and the hard brush 4 slide in opposite directions along the guiding component 2 respectively, the guiding rods 21 of two adjacent sets of guiding component 2 slide on the roller 1, thereby realizing the guiding effect on the soft brush 3 and the hard brush 4.

[0037] In this embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 6 includes fixing plates 61 symmetrically and fixedly installed at both ends of the inner side wall of the roller 1. A sliding rod 62 is fixedly installed between the opposite sides of the two fixing plates 61. Two moving blocks 63 are slidably connected to the outside of the sliding rod 62. One end of the connecting rod 5 located inside the roller 1 is hinged with a hinged rod 64. Two adjacent hinged rods 64 are symmetrically and staggeredly arranged and are respectively hinged with the two moving blocks 63. A driving member 65 connected to both moving blocks 63 is installed on the two fixing plates 61, which is used to make the two moving blocks 63 slide synchronously or stop sliding along the sliding rod 62. During use, the driving member 65 is used to make the two moving blocks 63 slide synchronously along the sliding rod 62. At this time, a plurality of hinged rods 64 hinged with the two moving blocks 63 respectively rotate around their own hinge points on the two moving blocks 63, and rotation occurs between the other end of the hinged rod 64 and the corresponding connecting rod 5. Since two adjacent hinged rods 64 are symmetrically and staggeredly arranged, adjacent two connecting rods 5 can slide in the opposite direction on the roller 1.

[0038] In this embodiment, the driving member 65 includes a threaded rod 651 rotatably installed on the two fixing plates 61. The threaded rod 651 and the central axis of the roller 1 are in the same axial direction, and the threaded rod 651 is threadedly connected to both moving blocks 63. During use, a force is applied to the threaded rod 651 to make it rotate on the two fixing plates 61. The threaded rod 651 is threadedly connected to both moving blocks 63, so that the two moving blocks 63 can slide synchronously along the sliding rod 62. The operation is simple. Since the threaded connection between the threaded rod 651 and the two moving blocks 63 has self-locking property, when the threaded rod 651 is not rotated, the positions of the two moving blocks 63 can be fixed, which is convenient for use.

[0039] Embodiment Three

[0040] As Figures 1-6 shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment further gives the following content:

[0041] In this embodiment, the connecting rod 5 includes a movable rod 51 that movably penetrates the roller 1 and is hinged to the hinge rod 64. One end of the movable rod 51 away from the hinge rod 64 is provided with a receiving groove 52, and a connecting block 53 is inserted into the receiving groove 52. Specifically, it should be noted that: the connecting block 53 on the connecting rod 5 is fixedly connected to the corresponding soft brush 3 or hard brush 4 of the connecting rod 5. One side of the movable rod 51 is movably penetrated by a screw rod 54 that is threadedly connected to the connecting block 53. During use, by disassembling the screw rod 54, the fixed state between the connecting block 53 and the movable rod 51 can be cancelled. At this time, an acting force is applied to the corresponding soft brush 3 or hard brush 4 of the connecting rod 5, and the corresponding soft brush 3 or hard brush 4 is pulled to displace the corresponding soft brush 3 or hard brush 4 away from the roller 1. When the guide rod 21 is displaced to the outside of the roller 1, the disassembly of the soft brush 3 or hard brush 4 can be realized, thus facilitating the disassembly and replacement of the soft brush 3 and the hard brush 4.

[0042] In this embodiment, a groove 511 is provided on one side of the movable rod 51, and the end of the screw rod 54 can be hidden in the groove 511. By providing the groove 511, the end of the screw rod 54 can be hidden in the groove 511, so as not to affect the sliding of the connecting rod 5 into the roller 1.

[0043] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 7 includes a rotating plate 71 fixedly installed at the end of the roller 1 by screws. A through hole 711 is provided at the center of the rotating plate 71. A connecting shaft 72 is fixedly installed on the rotating plate 71 and within the through hole 711.
