[0032] By providing a chopping board rotating device on the machine body 1 to drive the chopping board 18 to rotate relative to the machine body 1, the disinfection lamp 2 fixed in the accommodating cavity 101 of the machine body 1 irradiates different areas of the chopping board 18 as the chopping board 18 rotates, realizing 360° full-range sterilization of the chopping board 18 and improving the disinfection effect on the chopping board 18.

[0033] The following will make a detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, for the sake of explanation, many specific details are set forth to provide a comprehensive understanding of the embodiments of the present utility model. However, one or more embodiments can also be implemented by those skilled in the art without these specific details. Embodiment 1

[0034] A chopping board disinfection machine, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this chopping board disinfection machine includes a machine body 1, a disinfection lamp 2, and a chopping board rotating device provided on the machine body 1.

[0035] The machine body 1 is provided with an accommodating cavity 101 for placing the chopping board 18 and having an open top. Specifically, the machine body 1 includes a housing 102 and a top cover 103. The housing 102 has an open top, the accommodating cavity 101 is provided in the housing 102, and the top cover 103 is provided at the open top part of the housing 102. The top cover 103 is provided with two limiting grooves 1031 through which the chopping board 18 can pass. The limiting grooves 1031 communicate with the accommodating cavity 101. A single limiting groove 1031 is used to place a chopping board 18 and limit its movement range. The number of the limiting grooves 1031 can be adjusted according to the number of chopping boards 18 to be placed in actual applications.

[0036] The disinfection lamp 2 is fixed within the accommodation cavity 101, and the irradiation direction of the disinfection lamp 2 faces the chopping board 18. The disinfection lamp 2 is an irradiation type disinfection lamp 2, specifically an ultraviolet LED lamp.

[0037] The chopping board rotating device includes a driving unit and a follower wheel 5 arranged at intervals. The driving unit is used to drive the chopping board 18 to rotate relative to the machine body 1 in a friction drive manner. Specifically, the driving unit includes a motor 3 and a driving wheel 4. The motor 3 is fixedly connected to the machine body 1, the driving wheel 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3, and a partial circumferential surface of the driving wheel 4 is used to abut and support the outer edge of the chopping board 18.

[0038] The follower wheel 5 is hinged to the machine body 1, and a partial circumferential surface of the follower wheel 5 is used to abut and support the outer edge of the chopping board 18. Specifically, the follower wheel 5 is provided with a second support portion 12. The second support portion 12 protrudes from the side of the follower wheel 5, and a partial circumferential surface of the second support portion 12 is used to abut and support the outer edge of the chopping board 18.

[0039] The output end of the motor 3 drives the driving wheel 4 to rotate. Due to the abutment between the circumferential surface of the driving wheel 4 and the outer edge of the chopping board 18, the chopping board 18 is driven to rotate under the action of friction. At the same time, another part at the bottom of the chopping board 18 is abutted and supported by the second support portion 12 of the follower wheel 5. The follower wheel 5 rotates accordingly and continuously supports the chopping board 18. Therefore, the driving wheel 4 and the follower wheel 5 form two-point support for the chopping board 18, enabling the chopping board 18 to rotate stably on the driving wheel 4 and the follower wheel 5.

[0040] The circumferential surface of the second support portion 12 is made of an elastic material. The elastic material can be silicone or polyurethane. The elastic material not only increases the friction between the second support portion 12 and the chopping board 18, avoiding the idling of the follower wheel 5, but also effectively reduces the contact noise when the chopping board 18 rotates. Embodiment 2

[0041] A chopping board disinfection machine has the same technical solution as Embodiment 1, and the difference lies in:

[0042] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the driving unit includes a motor 3, a driving gear 6, and a driven gear 7. The motor 3 is fixedly connected to the machine body 1, the driving gear 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3, the driving gear 6 meshes with the driven gear 7, and the driven gear 7 is hinged to the machine body 1. A protruding portion is provided on the side of the driven gear 7, and a partial circumferential surface of the protruding portion is used to abut and support the outer edge of the chopping board 18. The protruding portion serves as the first support portion 11 of the driving unit. The circumferential surface of the first support portion 11 is also made of an elastic material.

[0043] The output end of the motor 3 drives the driving gear 6 to rotate. Under the meshing action, the driving gear 6 drives the driven gear 7 to rotate. Since the circumferential surface of the first supporting portion 11 of the driven gear 7 abuts against the outer edge of the chopping board 18, the chopping board 18 is driven to rotate under the action of friction.

[0044] The structure of the driving unit enables the driven gear 7 to support the chopping board 18, reduces the stress on the motor 3 shaft which is the output end of the motor 3, and prolongs the service life of the motor 3. Embodiment 3

[0045] A chopping board disinfection machine has the same technical solution as Embodiment 1, and the difference lies in:

[0046] Reference Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the driving unit includes a motor 3, a driving pulley 8, a driven pulley 9 and a synchronous belt 10. The motor 3 is fixedly connected to the machine body 1, the driving pulley 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3, and the driving pulley 8 is connected to the driven pulley 9 through the synchronous belt 10. The driven pulley 9 is hinged to the machine body 1, and a protruding portion is provided on the side of the driven pulley 9. A part of the circumferential surface of the protruding portion is used to abut and support the outer edge of the chopping board 18. The protruding portion serves as the first supporting portion 11 of the driving unit. The circumferential surface of the first supporting portion 11 is also made of an elastic material.

[0047] The output end of the motor 3 drives the driving pulley 8 to rotate. Under the belt driving action of the synchronous belt 10, the driving pulley 8 drives the driven pulley 9 to rotate. Since the circumferential surface of the first supporting portion 11 of the driven pulley 9 abuts against the outer edge of the chopping board 18, the chopping board 18 is driven to rotate under the action of friction.

[0048] The structure of the driving unit enables the driven pulley 9 to support the chopping board 18, reduces the stress on the motor 3 shaft which is the output end of the motor 3, and prolongs the service life of the motor 3. Moreover, the synchronous belt 10 can reduce the transmission noise. Embodiment 4

[0049] A chopping board disinfection machine has the same technical solution as Embodiment 1, and the difference lies in:

[0050] Reference Figure 5 In order to prevent the chopping board 18 from scratching the wall of the limiting groove 1031 of the top cover 103 and being damaged when rotating, a roller 13 is further provided at the lower part of the top cover 103 of the machine body 1, and the roller 13 is hinged to the lower part of the top cover 103. The roller 13 ensures that there is a spacing between the surface of the chopping board 18 and the wall of the limiting groove 1031. Embodiment 5

[0051] A chopping board disinfection machine has the same technical solution as Embodiment 1, and the difference lies in:

[0052] Reference Figure 6, to ensure the disinfection effect on the front and back of the cutting board 18, the number of disinfection lamps 2 is two. The two disinfection lamps 2 are respectively arranged adjacent to the front and back of the cutting board 18, and the irradiation directions of the two disinfection lamps 2 are respectively towards the two opposite surfaces of the cutting board 18. Of course, the number of disinfection lamps 2 can also be further increased according to actual application needs. Example 6

[0053] A cutting board disinfection machine has the same technical solution as that in Example 1, and the differences are as follows:

[0054] Reference Figure 7 , to more effectively process the cutting board 18 after cleaning, the cutting board disinfection machine further includes a heating device. The heating device includes an electric heating element 14 and a circulation fan 15. The air outlet of the circulation fan 15 communicates with the bottom of the accommodating cavity 101. The hot air formed by the electric heating element 14 is blown into the accommodating cavity 101 by the circulation fan 15 for circulation to dry the cutting board 18. Due to the rotation of the cutting board 18, the cutting board 18 is evenly heated and has a good drying effect. Example 7

[0055] A cutting board disinfection machine has the same technical solution as that in Example 1, and the differences are as follows:

[0056] Refer again Figure 7 , to more effectively handle the water droplets dropped from the cutting board 18 after cleaning, a water receiving box 16 that can be separated from the bottom of the machine body 1 is provided at the bottom of the machine body 1. The water receiving box 16 is located below the accommodating cavity 101. The bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 101 is provided with a water leakage hole 17. The water leakage hole 17 communicates with the bottom of the accommodating cavity 101 and the water receiving box 16. An opening is provided at the corresponding position of the top of the water receiving box 16 for the water leakage hole 17. The position where the water leakage hole 17 is provided on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 101 is lower than other parts of the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 101. The water droplets dropped from the cutting board 18 after cleaning usually accumulate at the bottom of the machine body 1. By providing the water leakage hole 17 and the water receiving box 16, the water droplets are gathered at the position of the water leakage hole 17 and fall into the water receiving box 16.

[0057] In this article, specific examples are used to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present invention. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only used to help understand the method and its core idea of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and modifications can still be made to the present invention, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
