[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0019] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model provides a cleaning device for ice cream molds, comprising a movable water tank 1, a movable cleaning trough 2 being provided on the side of the movable water tank 1, a water pump 8 being installed on one side of the movable water tank 1, the water pump 8 being connected to a water outlet pipe 9 leading out from the lower part of the movable water tank 1, the water outlet pipe 9 being simultaneously connected to a cleaning nozzle assembly 3 in the cleaning trough 2, a water inlet pipe 6 being connected to the upper part of the movable water tank 1, a steam nozzle 11 being installed at the inner bottom of the movable water tank 1, the steam nozzle 11 being connected to the steam inlet pipe 4 on the outer side of the movable water tank 1, and a drainage channel 19 being located above the movable water tank 1 being provided at the bottom of the cleaning trough 2.

[0020] Specifically, universal wheels 16 are installed at the lower ends of the supporting feet of the movable water tank 1 and the cleaning sink 2, which facilitate the movement and positioning of the movable water tank 1 and the cleaning sink 2. The water inlet pipe 6 is connected to a unified water pipe, and the steam inlet pipe 4 is connected to a unified steam pipe, which can continuously supply clean water, disinfectant water and high-temperature steam into the movable water tank 1.

[0021] The steam nozzle 11 is used to heat the water in the movable water tank 1 , and the temperature of the water in the movable water tank 1 is controlled by controlling the input and temperature of the steam.

[0022] During cleaning, the water pump 8 can pump out the high-temperature water or disinfectant water in the movable water tank 1, enter the cleaning nozzle assembly 3 and spray it upward. At this time, the mold module 13 is located above the cleaning nozzle assembly 3, and the high-temperature water or disinfectant water sprayed into the interior of each mold to rinse the interior.

[0023] The high-temperature water or disinfectant water after flushing can flow back into the movable water tank 1 through the sewer channel 19 for recycling.

[0024] In this embodiment, in order to accurately control the temperature of the water inside the movable water tank 1, a steam control valve 5 is installed on the steam inlet pipe 4, and a water inlet valve 7 is installed on the water inlet pipe 6. The temperature and turbidity of the water can also be adjusted by adding clean water.

[0025] In order to prevent the water in the movable water tank 1 from overflowing to the outside, an overflow pipe 12 is installed on the outer wall of the movable water tank 1. One end of the overflow pipe 12 is connected to the top of the side wall of the movable water tank 1, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the side wall of the movable water tank 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, a thermocouple 10 is installed between the water outlet pipe 9 and the water pump 8 to measure the water temperature. At the same time, a liquid level gauge 17 is installed on the side wall of the movable water tank 1 to detect the water level inside the movable water tank 1. A turbidity meter 14 is installed in the movable water tank 1. When the water level is too low or the turbidity detected by the turbidity meter 14 is too high, clean water needs to be added.

[0027] In order to prevent debris from clogging the water pipe, a filtering structure 18 is installed at one end of the water outlet pipe 9 located in the movable water tank 1 and at the sewer channel 19.

[0028] In order to improve the cleaning efficiency, the cleaning nozzle assembly 3 includes a diverter 32 connected to the end of the water outlet pipe 9, a cleaning pipe 33 connected side by side with the diverter 32, and a return pipe 34 connected to the end of the cleaning pipe 33. The cleaning pipe 33 is provided with upward water spray holes evenly arranged along the length direction.

If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0030] In addition, the terms "first," "second," and so on, used in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0031] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "connection" and "fixation" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can mean fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this utility model.
