Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vegetable cleaning equipment, and specifically to a vegetable cleaning and insect-removing device. Background Art

[0002] With the leapfrog improvement of modern living quality, consumers' pursuit of healthy diet has been increasing day by day. In particular, their preference for organic vegetables and raw vegetables has prompted them to put forward unprecedented high standards for the cleanliness and hygiene standards of food materials. At the same time, the fast-paced urban life makes people more frequently rely on public catering places such as canteens and restaurants to meet their daily dietary needs. This undoubtedly puts forward more stringent requirements for the hygiene standards of these large food supply institutions in food material processing, especially in the vegetable cleaning link.

[0003] In the current market, a number of innovative technologies have been applied to the field of vegetable cleaning. The Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN218507615U discloses an air flotation method vegetable cleaning device. By injecting gas into water and then using a hydraulic telescopic platform to move vegetables up and down, a cleaning effect of turning up and down is achieved, effectively improving the cleaning efficiency of vegetables;

[0004] The Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN217986611U discloses a vegetable swirling cleaning machine. By spraying water flows into the water tank through a rotating water outlet and a fixed water outlet to form a swirl, so that the vegetables move, and the attachments can be effectively cleaned;

[0005] The Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN217722628U discloses a device for cleaning vegetables. By combining a turning mechanism and a cleaning mechanism, the vegetables can be rotated and turned over, and the sundries in the vegetables can be effectively cleaned;

[0006] Although the above-mentioned devices can effectively remove some dirt, they are often comprehensive or focused on the cleaning of root vegetables. For leafy vegetables, the above-mentioned cleaning methods are extremely likely to cause leaf breakage and adhesion. In addition, due to the tiny concave and convex structures on the surface of leafy vegetables, impurities such as vegetable insects are more likely to hide and are difficult to completely remove. If the cleaning is not thorough, the remaining vegetable insects may cause health risks such as parasitic diseases, posing a potential threat to consumers. At the same time, during the cleaning process, impurities such as vegetable insects are often directly flushed into the drainage system, causing pollution to the environment.

[0007] Therefore, the present application provides a vegetable cleaning and insect-removing device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] This application provides a vegetable cleaning and insect-removing device, aiming to solve the problems in the background technology that the existing cleaning equipment is likely to cause damage and adhesion of the leaves of green leafy vegetables, the cleaning of vegetable insects is not thorough, which is likely to cause health risks, and the direct discharge of vegetable insects is likely to pollute the environment, etc.

[0009] To achieve the above object, this application provides the following technical solution: A vegetable cleaning and insect-removing device includes a cleaning tank. The vegetable cleaning and insect-removing device further includes a feeding port opened on one side of the cleaning tank, a feeding door hinged at the feeding port, a feeding basket slidably connected inside the cleaning tank at a position corresponding to the feeding door for placing vegetables, a perforated partition fixedly arranged inside the cleaning tank at a position above the feeding basket for separating vegetable insects, a water inlet pipe fixedly arranged on one side inside the cleaning tank, water outlet holes arranged in a linear array on the water inlet pipe, a blower fixedly arranged inside the cleaning tank on one side corresponding to the water inlet pipe and communicated with the water outlet holes for blowing water flow, and a driving mechanism arranged at the bottom end inside the cleaning tank for moving the feeding basket up and down.

[0010] An overflow port corresponding to the water outlet holes and a sewage outlet located below the overflow port are opened on one side of the cleaning tank away from the water inlet pipe. A water circulation component communicated with the overflow port, the sewage outlet and the water inlet pipe is arranged on one side of the cleaning tank for filtering waste water. By setting the perforated partition, the water inlet pipe, the water outlet holes and the blower, the water flow can form fine bubbles through the water outlet holes of the water inlet pipe and the holes on the perforated partition. This bubble water flow can penetrate more deeply into the gaps and surfaces of vegetables, clean the vegetables more thoroughly and meticulously, effectively remove dirt, pesticide residues and insect eggs on the vegetables, and this cleaning method has high practicability and versatility, and can also be used for the cleaning and insect-removing treatment of other various vegetables. At the same time, the vegetable insects pass through the perforated partition under the buoyancy force to reach the upper part of the cleaning tank, and then are brought to the overflow port by the water flow blown by the blower and enter the water circulation component for collection and treatment. This not only effectively removes the vegetable insects, reduces the impact of vegetable insect discharge on the environment, meets the environmental protection requirements, but also realizes the filtration and recycling of waste water, saving water resources. The driving mechanism drives the feeding basket to move up and down, making the vegetables roll continuously during the cleaning process. This dynamic cleaning method avoids the mutual adhesion of the leaves of green leafy vegetables, reduces the cleaning blind area, and also reduces the damage to the leaves.

[0011] Preferably, in order to facilitate the up and down movement of the feeding basket, the driving mechanism includes an electric cylinder arranged at the bottom end inside the cleaning tank and a lifting plate fixedly arranged at the movable end of the electric cylinder for lifting the bottom end of the feeding basket; the driving method by the electric cylinder is simple, convenient and efficient.

[0012] Preferably, for the convenience of environmental protection and water resource conservation, the water circulation component includes a water tank fixedly arranged on one side of the cleaning tank corresponding to the overflow port and the sewage outlet, a filtering component fixedly arranged in the water tank and communicated with the overflow port and the sewage outlet, a water pump fixedly arranged in the water tank, and a water suction pipe sequentially penetrating through the water tank and the cleaning tank and respectively communicated with the water pump and the water inlet pipe at both ends. The water suction pipe is fixedly arranged on the water tank and the cleaning tank. Such a design can not only realize the treatment and recycling of wastewater, but also prevent the direct discharge of vegetable insects, which conforms to the concept of water conservation and environmental protection.

[0013] Preferably, for the convenience of treating the filtered impurities, the filtering component includes a fixed box body fixedly arranged in the water tank and communicated with the overflow port and the sewage outlet, fixed slots respectively opened at positions of the fixed box body corresponding to the overflow port and the sewage outlet, and a filter screen inserted in the fixed slots. Such a design enables the filter screen to be easily taken out of the fixed slots for cleaning or replacement when a certain amount of impurities accumulates on the filter screen.

[0014] Preferably, for the convenience of maintaining the water tank, a drain pipe is fixedly arranged on the water tank, and a valve is fixedly arranged on the drain pipe. Such a design enables all the water in the water tank to be drained through the drain pipe after using the water tank for a period of time, so as to replace or clean the water source inside the water tank.

[0015] Preferably, for the convenience of maintaining or cleaning the cleaning tank and the water tank, a door is hinged on one side of each of the cleaning tank and the water tank. Such a design enables the inside of the cleaning tank or the water tank to be maintained or cleaned regularly by opening the door, ensuring the use effect and service life of the device.

[0016] Preferably, for the convenience of further treating the impurities after cleaning, a sedimentation component is arranged at a position below the electric cylinder in the cleaning tank. The design of the sedimentation component enables some impurities to automatically settle into the sedimentation component by the principle of gravity during the process of vegetable cleaning, so as to facilitate subsequent treatment.

[0017] Preferably, for the convenience of treating the settled impurities, the sedimentation component includes a grid plate fixedly arranged at the inner bottom end of the cleaning tank and fixedly connected with the fixed end of the electric cylinder, a sedimentation basket slidably connected on one side of the cleaning tank corresponding to the feeding door and located below the grid plate, and a mud guard slidably connected on one side of the cleaning tank corresponding to the sedimentation basket and located between the grid plate and the sedimentation basket. Such a design enables the impurities settled by gravity to settle in the sedimentation basket. When cleaning is required, only the sedimentation basket needs to be easily pulled out to clean the impurities in the sedimentation basket, improving the convenience of operation.

[0018] The vegetable cleaning and insect - removing device makes use of a perforated partition, a water inlet pipe, water outlet holes and a blower. The water flow can form fine bubbles through the water outlet holes of the water inlet pipe and the holes on the perforated partition. Such bubble water flow can penetrate more deeply into the gaps and surfaces of vegetables, cleaning the vegetables more thoroughly and meticulously, effectively removing dirt, pesticide residues and insect eggs on the vegetables. Moreover, this cleaning method has high practicability and versatility and can also be used for the cleaning and insect - removing treatment of many other vegetables.

[0019] The vegetable cleaning and insect - removing device blows the insects floating on the water surface above the perforated partition to the overflow port through the blower and collects and processes them in the water circulation component. This not only effectively removes the insects, reduces the impact of insect discharge on the environment and meets the environmental protection requirements, but also realizes the filtration and recycling of wastewater, saving water resources.

[0020] The vegetable cleaning and insect - removing device drives the feeding basket to move up and down through the driving mechanism, making the vegetables roll continuously during the cleaning process.

[0038] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0039] This embodiment provides a vegetable cleaning and insect removing device, as Figures 1-6 shown. The device includes a cleaning box 1. The vegetable cleaning and insect removing device further includes a feeding port opened on one side of the cleaning box 1, a feeding door 2 hinged at the feeding port, a feeding basket 3 slidably connected inside the cleaning box 1 at a position corresponding to the feeding door 2 for placing vegetables, a perforated partition plate 4 fixedly arranged above the feeding basket 3 inside the cleaning box 1 for separating vegetable insects, a water inlet pipe 5 fixedly arranged on one side inside the cleaning box 1, water outlet holes 51 arranged in a linear array on the water inlet pipe 5, a fan 6 fixedly arranged on one side inside the cleaning box 1 corresponding to the water inlet pipe 5 and communicating with the water outlet holes 51 for blowing water flow, and a driving mechanism 7 arranged at the bottom end inside the cleaning box 1 for moving the feeding basket 3 up and down; an overflow port 11 corresponding to the water outlet holes 51 is opened on one side of the cleaning box 1 away from the water inlet pipe 5, and a sewage outlet 12 is arranged at a position below the overflow port 11. A water circulation component 8 communicating with the overflow port 11, the sewage outlet 12 and the water inlet pipe 5 is arranged on one side of the cleaning box 1 for filtering waste water.

[0040] It should be noted that an operation panel for controlling the start, stop, adjustment of the operating state, etc. of the vegetable cleaning and insect removing device is fixedly arranged on the water tank 81.

[0041] During use, first open the feeding door 2, pull out the feeding basket 3, place the vegetables to be cleaned in the feeding basket 3, then push the feeding basket 3 back into the cleaning tank 1. Next, close the feeding door 2, and then start the water circulation component 8 and the blower 6 through the operation panel. After the water source in the water circulation component 8 is pumped into the water inlet pipe 5, the water entering the water inlet pipe 5 will, under the action of the wind blown by the blower 6, enter the upper part inside the cleaning tank 1 through the water outlet holes 51 provided on the water inlet pipe 5. The water entering the upper part inside the cleaning tank 1 will flow through the perforated partition 4 and enter the lower part inside the cleaning tank 1, and clean the vegetables placed in the feeding basket 3. During this process, the water flow will form fine bubbles through the water outlet holes 51 on the water inlet pipe 5 and the holes on the perforated partition 4, so as to clean the vegetables more thoroughly. However, while cleaning the vegetables, the driving mechanism 7 can be started through the operation panel to drive the feeding basket 3 to move up and down. As the feeding basket 3 moves up and down, the vegetables placed in the feeding basket 3 will roll, thereby avoiding the adhesion between vegetable leaves and reducing the damage to the leaves at the same time. During the cleaning process, the washed vegetable insects will, through the buoyancy effect, pass through the perforated partition 4 and float on the upper part inside the cleaning tank 1. At this time, the water flow blown by the blower 6 will cause the vegetable insects floating on the upper part inside the cleaning tank 1 to enter the water circulation component 8 through the overflow port 11 for filtration, so as to facilitate the subsequent treatment of the vegetable insects and the continuous use of the water source. Similarly, the washed sewage will be discharged through the sewage outlet 12 into the water circulation component 8 for filtration treatment to facilitate the recycling of the water source. After the cleaning is completed, open the feeding door 2, pull out the feeding basket 3, and take out the vegetables.

[0042] Specifically, the driving mechanism 7 includes an electric cylinder 72 arranged at the bottom end inside the cleaning tank 1 and a lifting plate 71 fixedly arranged at the movable end of the electric cylinder 72 for lifting the bottom end of the feeding basket 3;

[0043] While cleaning the vegetables, the electric cylinder 72 can be started to drive the lifting plate 71 to lift and lower. Through the lifting of the lifting plate 71, the feeding basket 3 will move up and down in the cleaning tank 1 along with the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 71, so that the vegetables placed inside it can roll, preventing the adhesion between vegetable leaves and reducing the damage caused by the impact of the water flow on the leaves at the same time.

[0044] Further, the water circulation assembly 8 includes a water tank 81 fixedly arranged on one side of the cleaning tank 1 corresponding to the overflow port 11 and the sewage discharge port 12, a filtering assembly 82 fixedly arranged in the water tank 81 and communicated with the overflow port 11 and the sewage discharge port 12, a water pump 83 fixedly arranged in the water tank 81, and a water suction pipe 84 sequentially passing through the water tank 81 and the cleaning tank 1 and having two ends respectively communicated with the water pump 83 and the water inlet pipe 5. The water suction pipe 84 is fixedly arranged on the water tank 81 and the cleaning tank 1; the filtering assembly 82 includes a fixed box body 821 fixedly arranged in the water tank 81 and communicated with the overflow port 11 and the sewage discharge port 12, fixed slots 822 respectively opened at positions of the fixed box body 821 corresponding to the overflow port 11 and the sewage discharge port 12, and a filter screen 823 inserted in the fixed slots 822.

[0045] It can be understood that on one side of the filter screen 823 close to the overflow port 11 or the sewage discharge port 12, only half of the filter screen 823 is attached, so that vegetable worms, sediment or other sundries can enter. Using the filter screen 823 can not only effectively filter impurities, but also facilitate subsequent cleaning and replacement. At the same time, a plurality of bent pipes are arranged on one side of the fixed slot 822 at the position of the sewage discharge port 12 close to the inside of the water tank 81, so that after the sewage is filtered, it can continue to be discharged into the water tank 81 for continued use.

[0046] When it is necessary to pump water into the water inlet pipe 5 to wash vegetables, the water pump 83 can be started. At this time, the water source in the water tank 81 will be pumped into the water inlet pipe 5 through the water suction pipe 84, and then enter the inside of the cleaning tank 1 through the water outlet holes 51 provided on the water inlet pipe 5, and finally flow through the perforated partition plate 4 to wash the vegetables in the feeding basket 3. When the water flow blown by the fan 6 makes the vegetable worms floating above the inside of the cleaning tank 1 blown to the overflow port 11, since the overflow port 11 is communicated with the fixed box body 821, at this time, the vegetable worms will enter the fixed box body 821 along with the water flow, and pass through the filtration of the filter screen 823 arranged at the corresponding position, blocking the vegetable worms in the filter screen 823, while the water flow will be filtered and circulated into the water tank 81 for subsequent recycling. When the cleaning is completed, the sewage will be directly discharged from the sewage discharge port 12 into the fixed box body 821. At this time, the discharged sewage will pass through the filtration of the filter screen 823 arranged correspondingly in the fixed box body 821, blocking the impurities at the filter screen 823, and the filtered water source will flow into the water tank 81 again for continued use.

[0047] Among them, in order to facilitate the maintenance of the water tank 81, a drain pipe 811 is fixedly arranged on the water tank 81, and a valve is arranged on the drain pipe 811; after using the water tank 81 for a period of time, the water in the water tank 81 can be directly drained out through the drain pipe 811 by opening the valve, so as to replace or clean the water source inside the water tank 81.

[0048] In addition, for the convenience of maintaining or cleaning the cleaning tank 1 and the water tank 81, a box door 10 is hinged on one side of each of the cleaning tank 1 and the water tank 81; after the device has been used for a period of time, the interior of the cleaning tank 1 and the water tank 81 can be cleaned or maintained by opening the box doors 10 on the cleaning tank 1 and the water tank 81 to ensure the service life and effectiveness of the device.

[0049] Furthermore, a sedimentation assembly 9 is arranged at a position corresponding to the lower part of the electric cylinder 72 in the cleaning tank 1. The sedimentation assembly 9 includes a grid plate 91 fixedly arranged at the bottom end inside the cleaning tank 1 and fixedly connected to the fixed end of the electric cylinder 72, a sedimentation basket 93 slidably connected to one side of the cleaning tank 1 corresponding to the discharge door 2 and located below the grid plate 91, and a mud guard 92 slidably connected to one side of the cleaning tank 1 corresponding to the sedimentation basket 93 and located between the grid plate 91 and the sedimentation basket 93;

[0050] Before discharging the sewage in the cleaning tank 1 after cleaning is completed, first pull the mud guard 92 to make the impurities settled on the surface of the grid plate 91 sink further through the grid plate 91 into the sedimentation basket 93 for collection. Immediately afterwards, the sewage will continue to be discharged from the sewage outlet 12 into the fixed box body 821 and finally filtered through the provided filter screen 823 and circulated into the water tank 81 for continued use. After the cleaning operation is completely finished, then pull out the sedimentation basket 93 to dispose of the impurities in the sedimentation basket 93.

[0051] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, according to the technical solution and its concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
