[0002] Hot pot, anciently known as "antique soup", got its name from the "gudong" sound made when food is put into boiling water. It is one of the unique Chinese cuisines and a cooking method suitable for all ages. Hot pot is not only a cooking method but also a symbol of culture. Generally, it refers to a cooking method in which a pot is used as a utensil, heated by a heat source, and various foods are boiled and cooked in boiling water or soup. It can also refer to the pot used in this cooking method. Its characteristic is to eat while cooking, or the pot itself has a heat preservation effect. Hot pot is eaten immediately after cooking, spicy, salty, fresh, oily but not greasy, relieving depression and removing dampness, suitable for the climate of mountains and rivers. Now it has developed into a mandarin duck pot, with spicy and light flavors respectively, meeting different needs. According to personal preferences, different soup bases and foods can be added, suitable for all ages, and it is an excellent food in winter. Typical hot pot ingredients include various meats, seafood, vegetables, bean products, mushrooms, egg products, staple foods, etc., which are put into boiling clear water or a special high soup base and cooked before eating. Some eating methods also involve dipping them in seasonings. Spicy hot pot, originally called tripe hot pot, is a hot pot with "a kind of spicy, numbing and salty brine". It originated in Chongqing and is also called red soup hot pot, red oil hot pot, mountain city hot pot and Chongqing hot pot. Chongqing has become the only origin and exporter of Chinese spicy hot pot.

[0046] Embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and should not be construed as a limitation of the present application.

[0047] In this context, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variation thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0048] As described in the background art, however, since the omasum is formed by laminating multiple leaf-shaped tissues, it is difficult to clean the area between adjacent leaves. The existing cleaning methods are often carried out by manual cleaning, with a large labor intensity and low efficiency. The prior art often uses a rinsing method for cleaning, but the cleaning effect is not good.

[0049] Embodiment 1:

[0050] Therefore, to solve the above technical problems, the present embodiment provides a cleaning device for bovine omasum, as Figure 1 、 2 shown. The cleaning device includes:

[0051] A box body 100 having a water inlet and a water outlet, and a feed hopper 200 is provided on one side of the box body;

[0052] A cleaning assembly 400 is integrally disposed inside the box body 100, and the discharge end of the feed hopper is disposed inside the cleaning assembly 400;

[0053] As Figure 3 、 5 shown, the cleaning assembly includes:

[0054] A third power device 430;

[0055] A central roller brush 490 is driven by the above third power device to rotate circumferentially along itself;

[0056] The edge roller brush 480 is provided with an array, and the edge roller brushes in the array are arranged at equal angles along the circumference of the central roller brush. A cleaning space for accommodating products is formed between the edge roller brushes and the central roller brush. The feed hopper is arranged in the cleaning space. When the central roller brush rotates, the edge roller brushes in the array also rotate accordingly.

[0057] In this embodiment, the central roller brush can be connected to the edge roller brush through a sprocket mechanism, and the edge roller brushes in the array can also be driven by a sprocket transmission mechanism. The third power device can be a motor, which can be installed outside the box. In addition, a controller can be provided to control the forward and reverse rotation of the third power device based on time as a control condition.

[0058] This embodiment is directed to the cleaning of the omasum, such as Figure 8 As shown, the omasum is input into the cleaning space through the feed hopper, and then cleaning water is injected into the box through the water inlet so that it covers the product. The equipment is started, and the third power device drives the central roller brush to rotate. Under the action of the sprocket transmission mechanism, the edge roller brush rotates at the same time. At this time, the direction of the force applied by the edge roller brush to the omasum is opposite to the direction of the force applied by the center roller brush to the omasum, thereby forming a relatively slight pulling effect on the omasum, thereby gradually opening the omasum. At the same time, the flaky tissue is moved by the action of the center roller brush or the edge roller brush, thereby brushing out the dirt in the adjacent flaky tissue, thereby achieving the cleaning of the omasum. The third power device is controlled to rotate forward and reversely by the controller to repeatedly move the leaf-like tissue of the omasum to improve the cleaning effect.

[0059] In this embodiment, the central roller brush and the edge roller brush are driven to rotate simultaneously by the third power device. The bristles of the central roller brush and the edge roller brush will push aside the leaf-like tissue of the omasum and brush out the dirt hidden between the leaf-like components. By controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the central roller brush and the edge roller brush, the leaf-like tissue is repeatedly pushed aside to improve the cleaning effect of the omasum and realize automatic cleaning of the omasum.

[0060] In this embodiment, in order to avoid damaging the omasum, the bristles of the central roller brush and the edge roller brush in this embodiment are made of a softer material to avoid the bristles being too hard and damaging the omasum, thereby affecting product quality.

[0061] Embodiment 2:

[0062] Although the cleaning device described in Example 1 can achieve automatic cleaning of the omasum, it is difficult to remove the product after the cleaning is completed.

[0063] Therefore, in order to solve this technical problem, this embodiment proposes improvements based on embodiment 1, such as Figure 5 As shown, the edge roller brush comprises:

[0064] A fixed rotary brush 481, the fixed rotary brush being provided with an array, and the array of the fixed rotary brushes being arranged circumferentially around the central rotary brush so as to surround the lower side, side portion and upper side of the central rotary brush;

[0065] A movable rotary brush 482, the movable rotary brush being provided with multiple groups, and the multiple groups of the movable rotary brushes being arranged circumferentially below the central rotary brush;

[0066] As Figure 2 shown, the cleaning assembly further includes a second power device 420, and the second power device drives the movable rotary brush 482 to perform a linear motion along the radial direction of the central rotary brush.

[0067] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the cleaning assembly may further include a cleaning cylinder 410, the cleaning cylinder being integrally installed in the box body 100, the bottom of the cleaning cylinder 410 being sealed with the box body through a sealing portion so as to form a closed installation space with the box body, and the above-mentioned second power device being installed in this installation space;

[0068] Both the above-mentioned central rotary brush and the edge rotary brush are arranged in the cleaning cylinder, and the central rotary brush and the fixed rotary brush can be connected to the cleaning cylinder through sealed bearings.

[0069] An upper portion on one side of the cleaning cylinder 410 is provided with a feed inlet through which the discharge end of the feed hopper can extend into the cleaning space;

[0070] As Figure 6 、 7 shown, an adjustment groove 411 for the linear motion of the movable rotary brush can be opened on the side portion of the cleaning cylinder corresponding to the above-mentioned movable rotary brush, the end portion of the movable rotary brush can be arranged in the adjustment groove 411, and the movable rotary brush can be connected to the cleaning cylinder through a sliding bearing, and a discharge port 412 can be opened at the bottom of the cleaning cylinder.

[0071] As Figure 4 shown, the cleaning assembly may further include a side sealing plate 440, the side sealing plate being arranged outside the cleaning cylinder and corresponding to the adjustment groove, the side sealing plate being slidably connected to the cleaning cylinder so as to seal the adjustment groove, the movable rotary brush being kept connected to the side sealing plate, and an arc-shaped groove for the movement of the movable rotary brush being provided at the connection between the side sealing plate and the movable rotary brush.

[0072] Exemplarily, one end of the fixed rotary brush penetrates through the cleaning cylinder and extends to the outside of the cleaning cylinder, and a first sprocket 450 is installed;

[0073] One end of the movable rotary brush is installed with a second sprocket 460, and the second sprocket is rotatably connected to the side sealing plate;

[0074] A third sprocket wheel 470 is further provided on the side sealing plate. The third sprocket wheel is installed on the side sealing plate and is arranged inside multiple groups of the first sprocket wheels and the second sprocket wheels. The first sprocket wheel, the second sprocket wheel, and the third sprocket wheel are connected by a chain.

[0075] As Figure 9 shown, after the omasum cleaning is completed, the second power device drives the side sealing plate to move vertically downward. Since the movable brush is connected to the side sealing plate, the movable brush will be driven to move linearly along the adjustment groove. In order to avoid interfering with the movement of the movable brush, an arc-shaped groove for the end of the movable brush to move is opened at the position on the side sealing plate connected to the brush. When the side sealing plate moves to the preset position, a discharge gap is formed between adjacent movable brushes and between the movable brush and the adjacent fixed brush for the omasum to discharge. During the movement of the side sealing plate, the adjustment groove of the side sealing plate is always kept closed, thus preventing the cleaning water from leaking out of the adjustment groove into the installation space. At the same time, during the movement of the side sealing plate, since the third sprocket wheel and the second sprocket wheel move simultaneously, when moving downward, the second sprocket wheel pulls the chain to move radially outward, and the third sprocket wheel relaxes. When moving upward, the third sprocket wheel pulls the chain to move radially inward, and the second sprocket wheel releases, ensuring that the chain is always kept in a tensioned state and preventing the chain from loosening and falling off.

[0076] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the cleaning device may further include a discharge assembly 300, and the discharge assembly is integrally inclined and arranged at the bottom of the above-mentioned box body 100;

[0077] Exemplarily, as Figure 2 shown, the discharge assembly includes:

[0078] A discharge barrel 320, the discharge barrel is inclined upward, and the minimum height end of the discharge barrel is connected to the above-mentioned box body;

[0079] A discharge screw 330, the discharge screw is arranged inside the discharge barrel, and the discharge barrel 320 is driven to rotate along its own circumferential direction by a first power device installed on the side of the discharge barrel.

[0080] The side sealing plate is driven by a second power device to move, so as to drive the movable brush to move radially along the cleaning barrel, thereby changing the gap between adjacent movable brushes and between the movable brush and the adjacent fixed brush, so that after the omasum cleaning is completed, the omasum leaking out from the enlarged discharge gap and discharged under the action of gravity through the discharge gap enters the discharge assembly and is discharged from the device through the action of the discharge assembly.

[0081] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned sprocket wheel mechanism can be replaced with a belt pulley transmission mechanism.

[0082] In this embodiment, during operation, the cleaning liquid level shall not exceed the height of the feed inlet position.

[0083] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present utility model. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the broadest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
