[0029] Walnut fruit cleaning and draining machine, such as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, it includes a cleaning water tank 10 for cleaning walnut fruits, a liftable drain basket 20 is installed in the cleaning water tank 10, a top cover 30 is installed on the top of the cleaning water tank 10, and a lifting cylinder 40 for adjusting the top cover 30 is installed on the outer wall of one side of the cleaning water tank 10; a lifting drain cylinder 12 for adjusting the height of the drain basket 20 is installed at the bottom center of the cleaning water tank 10; a bearing 22 is installed at the bottom center of the drain basket 20, a rotating shaft 21 is installed in the inner ring of the bearing 22, a plug-in slot 23 is provided at the top center of the rotating shaft 21, and a number of cleaning bristles 24 arranged evenly and equidistantly are provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 21; a servo motor 31 is installed at the top center of the top cover 30, and the output shaft of the servo motor 31 is connected to the driving shaft 32. The cross-sections of the driving shaft 32 and the plug-in slot 23 are both square, and the two are of compatible sizes and plug-in fit. The water tank 10 provides space for cleaning walnut fruits; the liftable drain basket 20 installed in the cleaning water tank 10 can conveniently perform draining operations after cleaning is completed; the bearing 22 and rotating shaft 21 installed at the bottom center of the drain basket 20, and the cleaning bristles 24 on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 21, when the servo motor 31 drives the active shaft 32 to rotate, because the active shaft 32 and the plug-in groove 23 at the top center of the rotating shaft 21 are both square in cross-section and have matching sizes, can drive the rotating shaft 21 to rotate, so that the cleaning bristles 24 can fully clean the walnut fruits; the top cover 30 installed on the top of the cleaning water tank 10 and the lifting cylinder 40 installed on the outer wall of one side can conveniently adjust the height of the top cover 30; the lifting drain cylinder 12 installed at the bottom center of the cleaning water tank 10 can adjust the height of the drain basket 20, so as to facilitate the realization of different operation requirements of cleaning and draining.

[0030] Furthermore, vertical frames 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bottom of the cleaning water tank 10. The height of the vertical frames 11 is higher than the height of the lifting drain cylinder 12, providing a stable support for the cleaning water tank 10. At the same time, its height design ensures that the lifting drain cylinder 12 and its ancillary structures have sufficient operating space, making the overall structure more stable.

[0031] Specifically, the piston rod of the lifting drain cylinder 12 passes through the cleaning water tank 10 and extends to the inside of the cleaning water tank 10, and a vibration chassis 13 with a built-in vibration motor is installed on the top of the piston rod, and a support column 14 is installed on the top of the vibration chassis 13. The vibration motor can help the fruit quickly drain water through vibration after cleaning, thereby improving the drainage efficiency.

[0032] It is worth noting that the shaft 21 and the inner ring of the bearing 22 are compatible in size and the two are plug-fitted together. The rotation of the shaft 21 drives the rotation of the cleaning bristles 24, thereby achieving comprehensive cleaning of the walnut fruit.

[0033] In addition, the piston rod 41 of the lifting cylinder 40 is connected to the middle of one side of the top cover 30 and is an integrally formed structure. The lifting and lowering of the top cover 30 is controlled by the piston rod 41, so that the cleaning water tank 10 can be easily opened or closed when needed, making it easier to put in and take out the fruit.

[0034] The working principle of this walnut fruit cleaning and draining machine:

[0035] First, the lifting cylinder 40 is started to raise the top cover 30, and the walnut fruits to be cleaned are placed into the drain basket 20 in the cleaning water tank 10;

[0036] Then, the lifting cylinder 40 is started again to lower the top cover 30 so that the driving shaft 32 connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 31 at the center of the top surface of the top cover 30 is aligned with the insertion groove 23 at the top center of the rotating shaft 21 of the drain basket 20 and inserted into it;

[0037] Next, the servo motor 31 is started to drive the driving shaft 32 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 21 to rotate in the bearing 22. The cleaning bristles 24 on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 21 clean the walnut fruit. At the same time, an appropriate amount of cleaning water can be injected into the cleaning water tank 10 to enhance the cleaning effect.

[0038] After cleaning is completed, the servo motor 31 is turned off, and the lifting cylinder 40 is started to lift the top cover 30 so that the driving shaft 32 is separated from the insertion slot 23;

[0039] Finally, the lifting drain cylinder 12 at the bottom center of the cleaning water tank 10 is started to lift the drain basket 20 to perform the draining operation.

[0040] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely preferred examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed in the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
