Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to cleaning equipment technical field, especially a kind of cleaning equipment for processing rhizoma polygonati. BACKGROUND

[0002] Rhizoma polygonati is a kind of traditional Chinese medicinal material with broad market prospect, and its processing process usually includes cleaning, root removal, steaming and drying steps, and since its main edible part is buried in the underground fleshy rhizome, it carries a lot of soil, so the cleaning step is particularly important in the processing of rhizoma polygonati.

[0003] Therefore, the prior art has a cleaning device disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent No.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned existing cleaning device still has the following defects in actual use: first, the existing cleaning device sets a relatively long cleaning tank for cleaning as many rhizoma polygonati as possible, and the discharge port is located at one end of the cleaning tank, so that the operator needs to manually push the rhizoma polygonati out of the discharge port after cleaning, which is relatively inconvenient; second, the spraying mechanism includes a spraying pipe, a plurality of nozzles are uniformly arranged on the spraying pipe, one end of the spraying pipe is connected with a water pump, and since the spraying pipe is relatively long, the water pressure at the end of the spraying pipe away from the water pump is low, and sometimes even stops spraying; third, since rhizoma polygonati has a lot of fibrous roots, the fibrous roots will be torn off and entangled on the bristles of the brush roller during cleaning, and it is difficult to remove the fibrous roots entangled on the brush roller only by the spraying mechanism, and currently the operator usually manually removes the fibrous roots to clean the brush roller, which is low in efficiency. Therefore, further improvement is still needed for the existing cleaning device. SUMMARY

[0005] The first technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a cleaning device that can avoid the need for the operator to manually push the rhizoma polygonati out of the discharge port.

[0006] The second technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a cleaning device that can avoid the water pressure at the end of the spraying pipe away from the water pump being too low.

[0007] The third technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a cleaning device that can avoid the need for the operator to manually remove the fibrous roots entangled on the brush roller.

[0008] The utility model discloses a washing equipment for rhizoma polygonati which comprises a washing tank, a discharge port and a baffle for opening or closing the discharge port, characterized in that it further comprises

[0009] a shell arranged at the periphery of the washing tank;

[0010] a jacking mechanism connected between a jacking end of the washing tank away from the discharge port and the shell for driving the jacking end to ascend or descend;

[0011] The discharge end of the washing tank close to the discharge port is provided with a rotating shaft and is rotationally connected with the shell, and the edge of the discharge port further extends outward at least partially to form a guide groove for guiding, and correspondingly, the shell is provided with a first opening for the guide groove to extend out, and a preset distance is left between the guide groove and the periphery of the first opening and between the corresponding wall surfaces of the discharge end and the shell to prevent interference.

[0012] In order to realize that the jacking mechanism can drive the jacking end to ascend or descend, preferably, the jacking mechanism comprises a first acting part and a second acting part capable of moving close to or away from each other, the first acting part is hingedly connected with the jacking end, and correspondingly, the second acting part is hingedly connected with the shell. The first acting part is hingedly connected with the jacking end, and the second acting part is hingedly connected with the shell, which is considered that the discharge end of the washing tank is rotationally connected with the shell through a rotating shaft, therefore, the discharge end of the washing tank cannot ascend or descend, and when the jacking end ascends or descends, the washing tank rotates around the rotating shaft, and the movement track of the connecting point of the washing tank and the jacking mechanism is an arc rather than a straight line, and if the above position is fixedly connected, it will be stuck and cannot work.

[0013] Further, in order to connect the jacking mechanism with the washing tank and the shell, preferably, the jacking mechanism is a push rod mechanism, and two jacking mechanisms are arranged at both sides of the jacking end in the width direction, and the upper edge of the jacking end is provided with a first hinge shaft for connecting the first acting part, and correspondingly, the shell is provided with a second hinge shaft for connecting the second acting part. Arranging the jacking mechanism at both sides of the jacking end in the width direction can make the jacking action more stable, and the jacking mechanism can be a push rod mechanism such as a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod, the first acting part is a push rod part, and the second acting part is a cylinder part.

[0014] In order to discharge the rhizoma polygonati more quickly, preferably, the upper edge of the jacking end is at least partially outwardly convex to form a convex portion, and an elastic member is further connected between the convex portion and the first hinged shaft. The elastic member can be selected from, for example, a spring or the like, which not only has a buffering effect, but more importantly, has a certain back-and-forth vibration effect, so as to facilitate the discharge of the cleaned rhizoma polygonati through the discharge port, especially for the rhizoma polygonati that are entangled with the brush rollers, and in addition, the vibration effect can be enhanced by the reciprocating ascending and descending of the jacking mechanism in a short stroke, so that the jacking mechanism not only has a jacking effect, but also has a vibrating effect.

[0015] In order to enable the cleaning work to be carried out in the cleaning tank, preferably, at least two brush rollers are arranged on the cleaning tank in the width direction, the first brush roller in the middle is lower than the second brush roller at the edge to form a cleaning space, the discharge port is communicated with the cleaning space, and a spray pipe for spraying cleaning water is arranged above the cleaning space. Since the first brush roller in the middle is lower than the second brush roller at the edge, the rhizoma polygonati will always be in the cleaning space during the cleaning process and will be constantly tumbled under the action of the brush rollers; the discharge port is communicated with the cleaning space to discharge the rhizoma polygonati in the cleaning space, and the discharge port can be arranged in a manner of being connected with the first brush roller to further reduce the resistance of the rhizoma polygonati discharge according to actual needs.

[0016] In order to solve the second technical problem, preferably, one end of the spray pipe is connected with a pump body for enhancing water pressure, the other end is connected with the shell, a plurality of spray heads for spraying cleaning water to the cleaning space are arranged on the spray pipe in the length direction, and the caliber of each spray head gradually increases in the direction of the spray pipe away from the pump body. By gradually changing the caliber of the spray head in the above manner, the water pressure of each spray head can be relatively more uniform, so as to avoid the situation that the water pressure at the end is too low.

[0017] In order to improve the utilization rate of cleaning water, preferably, one end of each brush roller is rotatably connected with the cleaning tank, the other end penetrates through the cleaning tank and is connected with a first driving source to rotate in the same direction, and each spray head is inclined by a preset angle relative to the vertical direction to the direction in which the brush roller rotates. If each brush roller rotates in different directions, the rhizoma polygonati will be rolled in, so each brush roller is usually arranged to rotate in the same direction, but this will cause the rhizoma polygonati to concentrate on one side. If the direction of the spray head is arranged vertically downward, the cleaning water will be wasted, so the spray head is inclined relative to the vertical direction to the direction in which the brush roller rotates, so as to improve the utilization rate of cleaning water and improve the cleaning effect. The preset angle can be set to 5-15° according to the actual concentration of the rhizoma polygonati.

[0018] In order to save the cleaning water, preferably, the bottom of the cleaning tank is provided with a second opening for the cleaning water to flow out, and correspondingly, the lower part of the shell is provided with a water storage bin for storing the cleaning water, the pump body is arranged in the water storage bin, and a filter element is arranged above the water storage bin. Through the design, the cleaning water can be recycled, thereby effectively saving the cleaning water.

[0019] In order to solve the third technical problem, preferably, the upper part of the cleaning tank is further provided with a high-pressure water gun facing the brush roller on both sides, and the high-pressure water gun is connected with the sliding block so as to move along the length direction of the cleaning tank, and the high-pressure water gun is connected with the pump body in the water storage bin through a water pipe. Through the design, it is considered that the cleaning water sprayed by the conventional spray pipe is difficult to remove the rhizomes wound on the brush roller, and the high-pressure water gun can be used to remove the rhizomes, and the high-pressure water gun is arranged to correspond to each brush roller and can move along the length direction of the cleaning tank. On the other hand, even if the spray pipe is affected by local spraying due to the blockage or damage of a certain nozzle, the high-pressure water gun can be moved to the corresponding position for supplementary spraying.

[0020] Further, in order to realize that the sliding block can move along the length direction of the cleaning tank, preferably, the sliding block is arranged on a lead screw, one end of the lead screw is rotationally connected with the cleaning tank, and the other end passes through the cleaning tank and is connected with a second driving source, and correspondingly, the sliding block is provided with a threaded structure matched with the lead screw. Through the threaded structure matched with the lead screw, the sliding block can be simply and efficiently moved along the length direction of the cleaning tank, thereby being matched with the high-pressure water gun to automatically remove the rhizomes wound on the brush roller.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages that: the shell is arranged on the periphery of the cleaning tank, the lifting mechanism is connected between the shell and the lifting end of the cleaning tank away from the discharge port, and a preset distance is left between the guide groove of the discharge port and the circumference of the first opening, and between the wall surface corresponding to the discharge end and the shell, thereby realizing that the cleaning tank is inclined upward and vibrates towards the direction of the discharge port, the rhizoma polygonatum is discharged by using the gravity of the rhizoma polygonatum itself, the situation that the operator manually pushes out the rhizoma polygonatum is avoided, and the working efficiency is effectively improved and the working content is improved.

[0033] The utility model will be further described in detail in combination with specific embodiments.

[0034] As Figures 1-8 The preferred embodiment of the utility model is shown. As Figures 1-3 The cleaning equipment for rhizoma polygonati shown in the figure includes a cleaning box 1, the cleaning box 1 is provided with a discharge port 14 and a baffle 15 for opening or closing the discharge port 14. And the cleaning equipment further includes a shell 2 arranged on the periphery of the cleaning box 1, a jacking mechanism 3 is connected between the jacking end 16 of the cleaning box 1 away from the discharge port 14 and the shell 2, so as to drive the jacking end 16 to rise or fall. The discharge end 17 of the cleaning box 1 close to the discharge port 14 has a rotating shaft Z and is rotationally connected with the shell 2, when the baffle 15 is opened and the discharge port 14 is in the open state, the jacking mechanism 3 drives the jacking end 16 to rise, so that the cleaning box 1 inclines upward around the rotating shaft Z towards the discharge port 14. It should be noted that, as Figure 4As shown, the edge of the discharge port 14 also extends outward at least partially to form a guide groove 141 for guiding, and the shell 2 is correspondingly provided with a first opening 22 for the guide groove 141 to extend out of, and a first preset distance d1 is left between the guide groove 141 and the circumference of the first opening 22 to avoid interference between them, and similarly, a second preset distance d2 is left between the discharge end 17 and the corresponding wall surface of the shell 2 to avoid interference between them. The guide groove 141 is provided to play a role similar to a "funnel" to facilitate the discharge of the cleaned Huangqi, and since the cleaning tank 1 is in an inclined state, both the guide groove 141 and the cleaning tank 1 itself will be close to the shell 2, so the first preset distance d1 and the second preset distance d2 need to be provided at the corresponding positions to avoid interference, so that the cleaning tank 1 can be tilted upward in the direction of the discharge port 14. In this embodiment, the first preset distance d1 is about 90 mm, and the second preset distance d2 is about 60 mm.

[0035] As for the specific structure and connection mode of the jacking mechanism 3, the jacking mechanism 3 includes a first acting part 31 and a second acting part 32 that can move closer to or away from each other, the first acting part 31 is hingedly connected to the jacking end 16, and the second acting part 32 is hingedly connected to the shell 2. The first acting part 31 and the jacking end 16 are hingedly connected, and the second acting part 32 and the shell 2 are hingedly connected, taking into account that the discharge end 17 of the cleaning tank 1 is connected to the shell 2 by a rotating shaft Z, so the discharge end 17 of the cleaning tank 1 cannot be raised or lowered, and when the jacking end 16 is raised or lowered, the cleaning tank 1 rotates around the rotating shaft Z, and the movement trajectory of the connection point of the cleaning tank 1 and the jacking mechanism 3 is an arc rather than a straight line, and if the above position is fixedly connected, it will be stuck and unable to work. Further, as shown, Figure 3 The jacking mechanism 3 in this embodiment is a push rod mechanism, the first acting part 31 is a push rod part, and the second acting part 32 is a cylinder part, and two jacking mechanisms 3 are provided, located on both sides of the jacking end 16 along the width direction, the upper edge of the jacking end 16 is provided with a first hinge shaft 161 for connecting the first acting part 31, and the shell 2 is correspondingly provided with a second hinge shaft 21 for connecting the second acting part 32. And the upper edge of the jacking end 16 at least partially protrudes outward to form a protrusion 162, and the protrusion 162 and the first hinge shaft 161 are further connected by a resilient member 163. The resilient member 163 in this embodiment is a spring part, which not only has a buffering effect, but more importantly has a certain back-and-forth vibration effect, so as to facilitate the discharge of the cleaned Huangqi through the discharge port 14, especially for Huangqi that is wrapped around the brush roller 11. In addition, the vibration effect can be enhanced by the reciprocating upward and downward movement of the jacking mechanism 3 within a short stroke, so the jacking mechanism 3 not only has a jacking effect, but also has a vibration effect.

[0036] As for how to clean in the cleaning tank 1, as shown,Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 1, the cleaning tank 1 is provided with at least two brush rollers 11 along the width direction, the first brush roller 11a in the middle is lower than the second brush roller 11b at the edge to form a cleaning space 12, the discharge port 14 is communicated with the cleaning space 12, and the spray pipe 13 for spraying cleaning water is arranged above the cleaning space 12. Since the first brush roller 11a in the middle is lower than the second brush roller 11b at the edge, the rhizoma polygonati will be constantly rolled in the cleaning space 12 by the force of the brush rollers 11 during the cleaning process. Moreover, the discharge port 14 is communicated with the cleaning space 12 to discharge the rhizoma polygonati in the cleaning space 12, and the discharge port 14 is connected with the first brush roller 11a in the embodiment to further reduce the resistance of the rhizoma polygonati discharge. As shown in FIG. 2, one end of the spray pipe 13 is connected with the pump body 4 for strengthening the water pressure, and the other end is connected with the shell 2, a plurality of spray heads 131 for spraying cleaning water to the cleaning space 12 are arranged on the spray pipe 13 along the length direction, and the caliber of each spray head 131 gradually increases along the spray pipe 13 towards the direction away from the pump body 4. By using the above-mentioned gradually changing caliber of the spray head 131, the water pressure of each spray head 131 can be relatively more uniform, thereby avoiding the situation that the water pressure at the end is too low. As shown in FIG. 3, one end of each brush roller 11 is rotatably connected with the cleaning tank 1, and the other end is connected with the first driving source 51 to rotate towards the same direction, each spray head 131 is inclined by a preset angle a relative to the vertical direction towards the rotating direction of the brush roller 11, and the preset angle a in the embodiment is 15°. If each brush roller 11 rotates in different directions, the rhizoma polygonati will be rolled in, so each brush roller 11 is usually arranged to rotate towards the same direction, but this will cause the rhizoma polygonati to concentrate on one side. If the direction of the spray head 131 is arranged vertically downward, it will cause waste of cleaning water, so the spray head 131 in the embodiment is inclined relative to the vertical direction towards the rotating direction of the brush roller 11, thereby improving the utilization rate of cleaning water and improving the cleaning effect. In order to save cleaning water, as shown in FIG. 4, a second opening 18 for the cleaning water to flow out is arranged at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, and correspondingly, the lower part of the shell 2 is provided with a water storage bin 23 for storing cleaning water, the pump body 4 is arranged in the water storage bin 23, and a filter 231 is arranged above the water storage bin 23. Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 7

[0037] ​​​Finally, in view of the problem that the bristles of the brush roller 11 are easy to entangle with the root hairs of the rhizoma polygonati, the upper two sides of the cleaning tank 1 are further provided with a high-pressure water gun 61 facing the brush roller 11, and the high-pressure water gun 61 is connected with the sliding block 62 so as to move along the length direction of the cleaning tank 1, and the high-pressure water gun 61 is connected with the pump body 4 in the water storage bin 23 through the water pipe 63. The high-pressure water gun 61 is provided in consideration of the fact that the conventional spray pipe 13 has a plurality of spray heads 131, so that the water pressure of a single spray head 131 is relatively low, and the cleaning water sprayed out is difficult to remove the root hairs entangled on the brush roller 11, and the use of the high-pressure water gun 61 can flush away, and for this reason, the high-pressure water gun 61 is arranged to correspond to each brush roller 11 and can move along the length direction of the cleaning tank 1. On the other hand, even if a situation occurs that a certain spray head 131 is blocked or damaged, etc., affecting the local spraying of the spray pipe 13, the high-pressure water gun 61 can be moved to the corresponding position for supplementary spraying. The sliding block 62 is arranged on the lead screw 64, one end of the lead screw 64 is rotatably connected with the cleaning tank 1, and the other end passes through the cleaning tank 1 and is connected with the second driving source 52. Correspondingly, as shown in Figure 8 , the sliding block 62 is provided with a threaded structure 621 matched with the lead screw 64, and the angle of the high-pressure water gun 61 arranged on the sliding block 62 can also be manually adjusted by the operator. By using the form that the lead screw 64 cooperates with the threaded structure 621 of the sliding block 62, the function that the sliding block 62 moves along the length direction of the cleaning tank 1 can be simply and efficiently realized.

[0038] The specific working process of the jacking mechanism provided in the embodiment is as follows:

[0039] Firstly, as shown in Figure 9 , when the cleaning work is completed, the baffle 15 is opened, so that the discharge port 14 is in an open state. The guide groove 141 in the embodiment has a certain flexibility, so that it can be deformed to allow the baffle 15 to be opened, and the opened baffle 15 can be placed on the guide groove 141 to avoid closing; referring to Figure 10 , at this time, the jacking mechanism 3 has not started to work, so the cleaning tank 1 is still in a horizontal state; then the jacking mechanism 3 lifts the jacking end 16 of the cleaning tank 1, referring to Figure 11 , so that the cleaning tank 1 enters an inclined state towards the discharge port 14, so that the cleaned rhizoma polygonati can pass through the discharge port 14 along the guide groove 141 relying on its own gravity, and the elastic member 163 also makes the cleaning tank 1 have a vibrating effect, so as to avoid that part of the rhizoma polygonati is entangled with the brush roller 11 and is difficult to discharge. According to actual needs, the jacking end 16 can also be repeatedly lifted and lowered in a short stroke by the jacking mechanism 3 to further strengthen the vibrating effect.
