[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0019] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", "connection", and "fixation" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0020] As <> Figure 1 shown, a preferred embodiment of the present utility model provides an onion cleaning device, which includes a water storage tank 1 filled with water for cleaning onions. A drain port (not shown in the figure) is provided at the bottom of the water storage tank 1 to facilitate the regular replacement of the water in the water storage tank 1.
