Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a food processing cleaning device, including a cleaning tank 1, wherein the cleaning tank 1 is provided with a brushing mechanism, a water spraying mechanism and a filtering mechanism, the filtering mechanism is located below the brushing mechanism and the water spraying mechanism is located above the brushing mechanism, the brushing mechanism includes a motor 3, a roller 17 is installed at the output end of the motor 3, a brush wheel 13 is fixedly installed on the side of the roller 17 away from the motor 3, a main gear 15 is fixedly installed at the end of the brush wheel 13 close to the motor 3, a threaded brush 11 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the brush wheel 13, and a plate brush 21 is fixedly installed above the roller 17.

[0023] In this embodiment, the worker places the food into the inlet, sprays water onto the food using a water spraying mechanism, and then cleans the food using a scrubbing mechanism. The cleaned water is filtered and recycled, saving water resources. This effectively solves the problem of food residue on the surface due to the inability to properly clean the pits and hollows of potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc., during food cleaning, thus improving food cleaning efficiency. A driven gear 16 meshes with the left side of the main gear 15, and a brush wheel 20 is fixedly installed on the side of the driven gear 16 away from the motor 3. A driven gear 18 meshes with the right side of the main gear 15, and a brush wheel 3 19 is fixedly installed on the side of the driven gear 18 away from the motor 3. The motor 3 drives the roller 17 to rotate, from... The main gear 15 rotates, which in turn causes the brush wheel 13 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded brush 11 pushes the food towards the discharge port 9. The rotation of the main gear 15 drives the driven gears 16 and 18 to rotate, which in turn drives the brush wheels 20 and 19 to rotate. This allows the food to be cleaned while moving, improving cleaning efficiency. The water spraying mechanism includes a water inlet 5, with a water pipe 10 fixedly installed at one end. The water pipe 10 is fixedly installed to the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1. Multiple nozzles 12 are fixedly installed on the side of the water pipe 10 away from the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1. Water is connected to the water inlet 5 and delivered to each nozzle 12 through the water pipe 10. The nozzles 12 then spray the food. The system sprays water and includes a filter screen 14 located at the bottom of the washing tank 1. A door is installed on one side of the filter screen 14. A water outlet 6 is fixedly installed on the right side of the washing tank 1, located below the water inlet 5. Water falling from the food washing area is filtered by the filter screen 14 and flows out through the water outlet 6. The filtered water can be reused, thus conserving water resources. After washing the food, the door on one side of the filter screen 14 can be opened to remove filtered impurities and prevent clogging. An inlet 2 is located at the top of the washing tank 1, and an outlet 9 is located on one side. A buffer plate 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the washing tank 1, and the buffer plate 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outlet 9. A water tank 7 is fixedly installed, and a brush 21 is fixedly installed above the roller 17. Multiple spring rods 4 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the brush 21. The washing tank 1 is movably connected to the spring rods 4. The staff puts food into the washing tank 1 through the feed port 2. With the brush 21 and the washing mechanism, when the food is being washed, the brush 21 is above the washing mechanism and its height is adjusted according to the size of the food by the spring rods 4 to wash the pits of potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. The washed food comes out from the discharge port 9, passes through the buffer plate 8 and enters the water tank 7 filled with water. This reduces the impact when the food comes out of the discharge port 5 and avoids damage. It can also be washed again to make the food cleaner.

[0024] The working principle or usage process of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the operator puts food into the cleaning tank 1 through the inlet 2, connects to a water source through the water inlet 5, and delivers water to each nozzle 12 through the water pipe 10. Water is sprayed onto the food through the nozzles 12. The motor 3 drives the roller 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the main gear 15 to rotate, thereby causing the brush wheel 13 to rotate. The rotation of the main gear 15 drives the driven gear 16 and driven gear 18 to rotate, thereby driving the brush wheel 20 and the brush... The rotation of wheel 19, in conjunction with brush 21, scrubs the food. The rotation of threaded brush 11 then pushes the food toward the discharge port 9. The cleaned food passes through buffer plate 8 into water tank 7, while the cleaned water is filtered through filter screen 14 and flows out of outlet 6 for collection and reuse. After cleaning the food, the door on one side of filter screen 14 can be opened to remove the filtered impurities and prevent clogging. All electrical equipment in this device is externally powered and its operation and shutdown are controlled by a matching control switch.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
