Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of melon seed processing, in particular to a cleaning mechanism for a salt and sugar disintegration tank. Background Art
[0002] In the process of melon seed production, a salt and sugar dissolving tank is often used to dissolve salt and sugar. After the salt and sugar dissolving tank is used, some salt and sugar will adhere to the inner wall of the salt and sugar dissolving tank. At this time, the staff will usually use an auxiliary cleaning and sterilization mechanism to clean and sterilize the salt and sugar dissolving tank. The existing auxiliary cleaning and sterilization mechanism is usually composed of a top cover, a drive motor, a high-pressure pump, a nozzle, a brush disc and a brush plate. During use, the salt and sugar dissolving tank is opened and the auxiliary cleaning and sterilization mechanism is placed into the salt and sugar dissolving tank through the top cover, and then the high-pressure pump is started to pump water and disinfectant into the salt and sugar dissolving tank, and then the drive motor is started to rotate the brush disc and the brush plate to clean and sterilize the salt and sugar dissolving tank.
[0003] The Chinese patent publication number is CN220611632U, which is an auxiliary cleaning and sterilization mechanism for a salt and sugar tank. The rotation of two driven gears drives two reciprocating screws to rotate, and the rotation of the reciprocating screws drives the lifting slide to slide back and forth in the rotating frame. The reciprocating sliding of the lifting slide drives the cleaning brush plate to slide back and forth, so that the cleaning brush plate can rotate with the rotating frame and can also reciprocate itself, effectively increasing the cleaning range of the cleaning brush plate, improving the cleaning effect of the salt and sugar tank, and increasing the practicality of the auxiliary cleaning and sterilization mechanism.
[0004] Although the above patent can improve the cleaning effect of the salt and sugar tank, since the spacing between the two cleaning brush plates is fixed, it can only clean the salt and sugar tank with a fixed diameter, and is difficult to apply to salt and sugar tanks of other models. Therefore, the scope of application of the above patent is relatively narrow. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] See also Figure 1-6 In an embodiment of the utility model, a salt and sugar tank cleaning mechanism includes a fixed plate 1, a moving mechanism 2, and a cleaning mechanism 3. The top surface of the fixed plate 1 is fixedly connected to a fixed shell 11, the bottom surface of the fixed plate 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating shell 12, and a fixed column 13 is fixedly connected at the center of the inner top surface of the rotating shell 12. The moving mechanism 2 is arranged inside the fixed shell 11, and is used to drive the fixed plate 1 to move in the tank body;
[0035] The cleaning mechanism 3 is arranged inside the rotating shell 12 and is used to clean the inner wall of the tank. The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a plurality of cleaning components 31 distributed in a ring shape with equal angles. A water spray component 32 is arranged between the plurality of cleaning components 31. The cleaning component 31 includes a rectangular sleeve 2 311 which is fixed through the rotating shell 12. The interior of the rectangular sleeve 2 311 is slidably sleeved with a telescopic plate 2 312. One end of the telescopic plate 2 312 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 313. Two symmetrical fixed blocks 315 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of one side of the connecting plate 313. A brush roller 316 is rotatably connected between the two fixed blocks 315 at relative positions. An electric push rod 317 is fixedly connected between the telescopic plate 2 312 and the fixed column 13.
[0036] Specifically, the device is first placed on the inner bottom surface of the tank body or the staff drags the device to the top of the tank body by hand, and then the moving mechanism 2 is extended to make the moving mechanism 2 in close contact with the inner wall of the tank body, so that the device can be suspended in the air, and then the multiple electric push rods 317 are started at the same time, so that the electric push rods 317 extend the telescopic plate 2 312 at the corresponding position from the rectangular sleeve 2 311 at the corresponding position until the brush roller 316 contacts the inner wall of the tank body, and then the moving mechanism 2 is started to enable the device to move upward. During the upward movement of the device, the rotating shell 12 drives the multiple brush rollers 316 to revolve along the axis of the rotating shell 12 under the external force applied by the water spray assembly 32, and the brush rollers 316 can also Since the bristles of the brush roller 316 are in contact with the inner wall of the tank body, the brush roller 316 can clean the salt and sugar on the inner wall of the tank body under the action of self-rotation and revolution. After cleaning, when the device moves down to the bottom or up to the highest point, the device can be removed by returning the moving mechanism 2 to its original position, and then the staff can specifically clean the bottom and top of the tank body. Although the device has cleaning obstacles to the bottom and top of the tank body, it can achieve the cleaning of a large area between the top and the bottom of the tank body. The device can extend multiple brush rollers 316 by driving multiple electric push rods 317, so that the device can clean the inner walls of tanks of different diameters. Therefore, the applicability of the device is wider.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a protective cover 314 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the connecting plate 313, a heating plate is fixedly connected inside the protective cover 314, and a threading hole is opened through the axis of the bottom surface of the rotating shell 12 and the top surface of the fixed shell 11.
[0039] In this embodiment, since the heating plate moves with the brush roller 316, and since dried salt and sugar will adhere to the inner wall of the tank during the processing of melon seeds, the salt and sugar adhered to the inner wall of the tank can be melted by heating of the heating plate, so that the adhesion of the salt and sugar to the inner wall of the tank is reduced, and then the salt and sugar can be more easily cleaned off by the use of the brush roller 316. The wire threading holes facilitate the passage of the wires of multiple electric push rods 317 to prevent multiple strands of wire from being entangled when the rotating shell 12 rotates.
[0040] Example 2
[0041] like Figure 6As shown, in this embodiment, the interior of the brush roller 316 is a hollow structure, and a plurality of oblique holes are opened through the outer wall of the brush roller 316. The water spray assembly 32 includes a connection box 321, a plurality of connection pipes 322, and two conduits 323. The connection box 321 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the rotating shell 12, and the plurality of connection pipes 322 are respectively fixedly connected between the connection box 321 and the interior of the brush roller 316. The two conduits 323 are respectively fixedly connected to the top and bottom surfaces of the connection box 321; the conduits 323 are respectively passed through and fixedly connected. One end of the connecting plate 313 is fixedly connected to a rotary joint 324, one side of the connecting plate 313 is fixedly connected to a vertical plate 318, both ends of one side of the vertical plate 318 are fixedly connected to support blocks 319, a fixed pipe 326 is fixedly connected between the two support blocks 319, the outer wall of the connecting pipe 322 is fixedly connected to a three-way pipe 325, one end of the three-way pipe 325 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed pipe 326 at the corresponding position with a water pipe 327, and a plurality of nozzles are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed pipe 326 at equal intervals and in an inclined manner.
[0042] In this embodiment, the upward rotating joint 324 is first connected to the external pipe. By injecting high-pressure water into the pipe, the high-pressure water can enter the brush roller 316 at the corresponding position from the multiple connecting pipes 322 through the connecting box 321, and then be sprayed out from the multiple inclined holes opened on the brush roller 316. The brush roller 316 can rotate under the action of the inclined holes and high-pressure water (similar to the principle of a rotating nozzle). The rotating brush roller 316 can change its surface, and then the salt and sugar sticking to the brush roller 316 are washed away by the action of high-pressure water, so that the inner wall of the tank can be better cleaned. At the same time, a part of the high-pressure water is sprayed from multiple nozzles, and the nozzles are also tilted and fixed, so that the rotating shell 12 can drive the multiple brush rollers 316 to revolve, thereby achieving dead-angle cleaning of the inner wall of the tank.
[0043] Example 3
[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the moving mechanism 2 includes a plurality of rectangular sleeves 21 and a plurality of telescopic plates 22. The plurality of rectangular sleeves 21 are distributed in a ring with equal angles and are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed shell 11. The plurality of telescopic plates 22 are slidably sleeved inside the rectangular sleeve 21 at the corresponding position. One end of the telescopic plate 22 is fixedly connected to a fixing seat 23. The interior of the fixing seat 23 is rotatably connected to a hub motor through a rotating shaft. The outer wall of the hub motor is fixedly connected to a roller 24. A threaded groove is provided at one end of the telescopic plate 22 away from the roller 24. A screw that passes through the rectangular sleeve 21 at the corresponding position is screwed in the threaded groove. One end of the outer wall of the screw is fixedly connected to a bevel gear 25. The inner bottom surface of the fixed shell 11 is fixedly connected to a self-locking motor 26. The output end of the self-locking motor 26 is fixedly connected to a bevel gear 2 that meshes with the plurality of bevel gears 25.
[0045] In this embodiment, the self-locking motor 26 drives the plurality of screws to rotate, and the rotating screws cause the telescopic plate 22 to extend from the rectangular sleeve 21 at the corresponding position, thereby moving the roller 24 away from the fixed shell 11 until the roller 24 is in close contact with the inner wall of the tank (the outer wall of the roller 24 is a rubber structure, similar to the wheel of an electric vehicle), thereby limiting the position of the device within the tank, and then driving the plurality of hub motors to enable the plurality of rollers 24 to drive the device to move.
