[0020] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0021] The present invention provides a Figure 1 - Figure 4 fruit and vegetable cleaning device as shown, including a support frame 1 and a water tank 2. A filter water tank 201 is fixedly arranged in the water tank 2, and the filter water tank 201 is used for cleaning fruits and vegetables. An inlet 19 is connected to the surface of the water tank 2, and water is discharged into the water tank 2 through the inlet 19. An outlet 20 is connected to the bottom of the water tank 2, and the water for cleaning fruits and vegetables can be discharged through the outlet 20 after cleaning.

[0022] Considering that when the existing fruit and vegetable cleaning devices clean fruits and vegetables, although they can achieve the brushing function, for the lighter fruits or vegetables floating in the water tank 2, the cleaning effect is not ideal, and the fruits and vegetables cannot be effectively turned over and brushed during the cleaning process, resulting in low efficiency. A cleaning component for cleaning the fruits and vegetables in the filter water tank 201 is arranged in the water tank 2. By rotating the water in the filter water tank 201, a vortex can be formed to drive the fruits and vegetables in the filter water tank 201 to rotate. During this process, the sponge protrusions 16 on the roller 15 will brush the larger fruits and vegetables deposited in the filter screen 6, and at the same time, for the lighter fruits and vegetables floating on the filter screen 6, they can also be effectively brushed. The vortex-shaped water flow can also help to turn over the fruits and vegetables, so as to achieve a more thorough cleaning effect.

[0023] Specifically, the cleaning component includes a first motor 3, the first motor 3 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the water tank 2, a first rotating shaft 4 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the water tank 2, and a plurality of rotating blades 5 are equidistantly and fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the first rotating shaft 4. A filter screen 6 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the water tank 2 to prevent the rotating blades 5 from contacting the fruits and vegetables when rotating. One end of the first rotating shaft 4 close to the first motor 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 3. By driving the first motor 3 to rotate, its output end drives the first rotating shaft 4 to rotate, and then the rotating blades 5 also rotate accordingly. This process causes the water in the filter water tank 201 to form a vortex shape, and the vortex-shaped water flow can more effectively drive the fruits and vegetables in the water tank 2 to rotate, so that the sponge protrusions 16 on the roller 15 can more comprehensively brush the fruits and vegetables deposited in the filter screen 6. Even the lighter fruits and vegetables floating on the filter screen 6 can be fully brushed and turned over, achieving a more thorough cleaning effect.

[0024] Furthermore, a second rotating shaft 7 is rotatably arranged at equal intervals on the inner wall of the water tank 2. An active bevel gear 8 is fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the first rotating shaft 4, and a driven bevel gear 9 is fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the second rotating shaft 7. The active bevel gear 8 is meshed and connected with the driven bevel gear 9. A spring hammer 10 is fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the second rotating shaft 7. The hammer head of the spring hammer 10 is made of rubber material, so as to reduce the damage to the bottom of the filter water tank 201 when contacting it. By rotating the first rotating shaft 4, the second rotating shaft 7 is driven to rotate, and then the spring hammer 10 knocks on the bottom of the filter water tank 201. This knocking method generates vibrations, causing the water in the filter water tank 201 to form vibrations. When the water contacts the fruits and vegetables, the vibration effect can penetrate into the gaps on the surfaces of the fruits and vegetables, effectively vibrating out the dirt, thereby achieving a more thorough cleaning effect.

[0025] Considering that some lighter fruits and vegetables will float on the inner surface of the filter water tank 201 and are not easy to clean, a screw 11 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the water tank 2. A sliding rod 12 is fixedly arranged on one side of the inner wall of the water tank 2 close to the screw 11. A sliding member 13 is threadedly connected to the screw 11 through a threaded hole. The sliding member 13 slides on the outer side wall of the sliding rod 12 through a sliding hole. Rotating rods 14 are rotatably arranged at both ends of the sliding member 13. Roller wheels 15 are fixedly arranged on the rotating rods 14. A plurality of sponge protrusions 16 are arranged at equal intervals on the outer side wall of the roller wheels 15. A gear 17 is fixedly arranged at one end of the rotating rod 14 far away from the roller wheel 15. A rack 18 is fixedly arranged on one side of the inner wall of the water tank 2 close to the gear 17. The gear 17 is meshed and connected with the rack 18. A second motor 21 is fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the water tank 2. One end of the screw 11 close to the second motor 21 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 21.

[0026] By driving the output end of the second motor 21 to rotate, the screw 11 is driven to rotate accordingly. This rotation action causes the sliding member 13 to drive the two rotating rods 14 to slide along the outer side wall of the sliding rod 12. At the same time, the movement of the sliding member 13 also causes the rack 18 to push the gear 17 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 17 further drives the rotating rod 14 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating rod 14 drives the roller wheel 15 to rotate. During this process, the sponge protrusions 16 on one roller wheel 15 come into contact with and brush the surfaces of the fruits and vegetables floating on the surface of the filter water tank 201, while the sponge protrusions 16 on the other roller wheel 15 are responsible for brushing the surfaces of the fruits and vegetables on the inner wall of the filter water tank 201. Combined with the eddy current generated by the rotation of the rotating blades 5, the fruits and vegetables in the filter water tank 201 are rotated and turned over, thus realizing the two-sided brushing of heavier and lighter fruits and vegetables, not only improving the cleaning efficiency, but also ensuring that the cleanliness of the fruits and vegetables reaches a higher standard, achieving a more thorough cleaning effect.
