[0007] Furthermore, the supporting surface of the placement rack is an arc-shaped surface, and both ends of the placement rack are sealed.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes through holes, which are evenly opened on the placement rack.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the placement rack is a notch structure, and the cleaning brush is partially placed in the notch of the placement rack.

[0010] Furthermore, the cleaning brush is a roller brush.

[0011] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes a gear and a rack, the gear is fixed to the end of the rotating shaft, the rack is fixed to the inner wall of the water tank, and the gear and rack teeth are meshed.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the egg washing and drying device has the following advantages: the conveying chain of the chain conveyor drives the placement rack to move, thereby moving the eggs to the bottom of the spray pipe and the hot air blower, and the surface of the eggs is cleaned by the cleaning brush. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the cleaning brush and the surface of the eggs are frictionally transmitted, so that the eggs roll in the placement rack, thereby increasing the contact area between the eggs and the cleaning water and the cleaning brush, thereby improving the cleaning effect. The cleaning effect is good, and the dirt on the surface of the eggs can be cleaned by brushing. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The placing rack 5 is located below the water spray port of the spray pipe 2 and the air blowing port of the hot air blower 3. The placing rack 5 is rotatably connected to a cleaning brush 10 through a rotating shaft 9. The end of the rotating shaft 9 is transmission-connected to the inner wall of the water tank 1 through a transmission mechanism 4. A sewage pipe 11 is fixed to the bottom of the water tank 1, the PLC controller 7 is electrically connected to an external power supply, and the hot air blower 3 and the chain plate conveyor 8 are both electrically connected to the PLC controller 7. The eggs are put into The eggs are placed on the rack 5, and then the conveying chain of the chain conveyor 8 drives the placement rack 5 to move, thereby moving the eggs to the bottom of the spray pipe 2 and the hot air blower 3. The water nozzle of the spray pipe 2 sprays water to the eggs, thereby rinsing the eggs. The hot air blower 3 blows hot air to the cleaned eggs, dries the eggs by hot air, and cleans the surface of the eggs by the cleaning brush 10. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the cleaning brush 10 and the surface of the eggs are frictionally driven, so that the eggs roll on the placement rack 5, thereby increasing the contact area between the eggs and the cleaning water and the cleaning brush 10, thereby improving the cleaning effect. The cleaned sewage enters the water tank 1, and the sewage in the water tank 1 enters the external sewage treatment system through the sewage pipe 11. The cleaning effect is good, and the dirt on the surface of the eggs can be cleaned by brushing.

[0019] The supporting surface of the placement rack 5 is an arc-shaped surface, and both ends of the placement rack 5 are blocked to prevent eggs from falling from the ends of the placement rack 5.
