[0014] Example 1: Figure 1-3As shown, the automatic bowl and plate separation mechanism described in the present invention includes a tableware conveyor belt 1 for conveying plates 2 to be washed and bowls 3 on the plates; it also includes a spiral conveyor belt 4, a tableware separation assembly 5, a plate washing conveyor belt 6 and a bowl washing conveyor belt 7; the inlet end of the spiral conveyor belt 4 is connected to the end of the tableware conveyor belt 1 to be washed, and the two are flush; the spiral conveyor belt is driven by a driving motor to spirally rise and convey, driving the tableware to be washed to be transported upward; the end of the spiral conveyor belt 4 extends to the tableware separation assembly 5, and the tableware to be washed enters the plate washing conveyor belt 6 and the bowl washing conveyor belt 7 respectively after separation is completed in the tableware separation assembly 5.

[0015] In this embodiment, the tableware separation assembly 5 includes an arc-shaped slide inner baffle 51, an arc-shaped slide outer baffle 52 and a slide middle bar 53; the arc-shaped slide inner baffle 51 and the arc-shaped slide outer baffle 52 are fixed to the cleaning equipment frame by fixing parts, and a channel for the dinner plates 2 and the dinner bowls 3 to slide down is formed between the two; the arc-shaped slide inner baffle 51 and the arc-shaped slide outer baffle 52 are provided with sealing plates 54 on both sides; the slide middle bar 53 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the channel, and the distance L1 between the two slide middle bars 53 is less than the width L2 of the dinner plate 2, and the slide middle bar 53 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the channel. The stop bar 53 is fixed to the cleaning equipment frame by a fixing part, so that a space for the dinner plate 2 to slide down is formed between the inner baffle plate 51 of the arc-shaped slide and the middle stop bar 53 of the slide, guiding the two sides of the dinner plate 2 to slide into the slide formed by the middle stop bar 53 of the slide to the end; the top of the inner baffle plate 51 of the arc-shaped slide overlaps with the end of the spiral conveyor belt 4, and the lower end outlet faces the dinner plate cleaning conveyor belt 6; a dinner bowl baffle 8 is provided on the outer side of the end of the middle stop bar 53 of the slide, and the end of the outer baffle plate 52 of the arc-shaped slide is connected to the dinner bowl cleaning conveyor belt 7, thereby realizing the separation of the dinner bowl 3 and the dinner plate 2.

[0016] In actual application, after the employees have finished their meal, the bowls 3 are placed on the plates 2, which are then placed on the tableware conveyor belt 1 for cleaning by the operator. The tableware to be cleaned is transported upward to a high place along the spiral conveyor belt 4 and slides into the tableware separation assembly 5 at the end of the spiral conveyor belt 4. The plates 3 are restricted by the middle bar 53 of the slide and can only slide downward along the middle bar 53 of the slide until they fall upside down onto the plate cleaning conveyor belt 6.
