Different types of tanks, such as storage tanks, reactors, and fermentation tanks, require different cleaning methods based on their purpose, the nature of the internal residue, and industry regulations. In the dairy industry, storage tanks used to store dairy raw materials need to be cleaned regularly. The traditional cleaning method is to manually place rotating washing balls into the tank and then use high-pressure water for rotary cleaning. However, after cleaning, the washing balls need to be manually extracted and transferred to the next tank. This process is not only inefficient, but also cannot guarantee that the interior of the tank is thoroughly cleaned. Utility Model Content

The rotating disc 91 is movably connected to the inside of the pressure-resistant joint 90.

[0026] The number of the bent pipes 92 is no less than four, and providing four bent pipes 92 can ensure more uniform spraying.

[0030] Principle of this utility model:

[0031] Generally, multiple treatment tanks are arranged in parallel. The utility model is placed on the channel at the top of the treatment tank. First, the walker 12 controls the whole body to walk on the channel. When walking to the side of the treatment tank body, the visual monitor 35 detects whether the cleaning port of the treatment tank is open. Once opened, the controller 11 first controls the electric cylinder 30 to work, so that the slide 31 moves down along the tilting frame 20, and the rotary spray mechanism 9 is extended into the tank body. Then the drive motor 22 rotates, so that the transmission screw 23 rotates, and the sliding seat 24 moves. The movement process drives the connecting arm 25 to move, which will push or pull the tilting frame 20 to move in the vertical or horizontal direction. During the vertical movement, the output end of the nozzle 93 is gradually opposite to the inner wall of the treatment tank. This ensures that the nozzle sprays high-pressure water on the inner wall, which can achieve higher cleaning efficiency. Among them, the telescopic electric cylinder 4 can ensure that the rotary spray mechanism 9 can move up and down in the treatment tank. In this way, the rotary spray mechanism 9 rotates and sprays at the same time during the telescopic process, which is more efficient.
