Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mechanical technology for cleaning, bleaching, drying or baking fruits or vegetables, such as coffee, cocoa, and nuts, and specifically to a vegetable washing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Utility model patent CN215381352U discloses a vegetable washing machine. Vegetables are placed in a washing tank, and water is delivered via a hose through a delivery pipe, a vertical pipe, and a corrugated pipe, then sprayed from a nozzle to rinse the vegetables. Simultaneously, a motor drives the nozzle to rotate, and a push rod motor moves the nozzle, adjusting its tilt angle to spray water at different locations. Combined with the rotation of the vertical pipe, this achieves all-around water rinsing of the vegetables in the washing tank. After the vegetables are submerged, the water spraying stops. A servo motor drives a turntable to rotate, causing a movable rod to move back and forth, agitating the water and vegetables in the washing tank, facilitating the removal of impurities from the vegetables. Finally, a valve on the drain pipe opens, discharging wastewater.

[0003] Using the impact of water to clean vegetables can remove dirt from their surface and achieve a certain cleaning effect. However, since dirt on the underside of the leaves cannot be rinsed off during the cleaning process, the cleaning effect is limited. Summary of the Invention

[0024] Reference Figure 1 This application presents an embodiment of the vegetable washing machine, which includes:

[0025] A frame 10 is provided with a cleaning tank 11, which is used to hold cleaning water.

[0026] A cleaning mesh frame 20 is installed inside the cleaning tank 11 via a reciprocating shaking mechanism 30. The cleaning mesh frame 20 is used to hold vegetables to be cleaned.

[0027] An ultrasonic cleaner is mounted on the frame 10 and is used to generate ultrasonic waves in the cleaning tank 11.

[0028] The reciprocating shaking mechanism 30 is used to drive the cleaning mesh frame 20 to move the vegetables back and forth and back and forth up and down.

[0029] In this embodiment, the cleaning tank 11 is filled with cleaning water. Vegetables are placed into the cleaning mesh frame 20. The ultrasonic cleaner uses cavitation in the cleaning water in the cleaning tank 11 to knock off the dirt on the surface of the vegetables and fruits. Since this cavitation effect is very easy to generate at the interface between solid and liquid, it has a very strong cleaning effect on vegetables and fruits, and can easily clean off the dirt on the surface of vegetables and fruits.

[0030] When the dirt on the vegetables is cleaned by ultrasonic waves, the reciprocating shaking mechanism 30 drives the cleaning mesh frame 20 to move the vegetables back and forth and up and down. The vegetables and fruits move up, down, left and right to make full contact with the water flow, so that the water flow in the cleaning tank 11 can fully contact the surface of the vegetables and fruits. This allows the dirt on the upper and lower surfaces of the vegetables and fruits to be cleaned off and carried away by the water flow, falling through the mesh of the cleaning mesh frame 20 and depositing in the cleaning tank 11, thus ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0031] Preferably, the reciprocating shaking mechanism 30 includes a mounting frame 31 and a drive assembly 32. The mounting frame 31 is disposed inside the cleaning tank 11 and has a gap between it and its inner bottom wall. The cleaning mesh frame 20 is mounted on the mounting frame 31. The left and right sides of the lower end of the mounting frame 31 are respectively hinged to one end of a parallel connecting rod 33. The other end of the connecting rod 33 is hinged to the inner bottom wall of the cleaning tank 11. The drive assembly 32 is mounted on the frame 10 and connected to one of the connecting rods 33. The drive assembly 32 is used to drive the connecting rod 33 to swing left and right.

[0032] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the mounting bracket 31 can swing stably in the cleaning tank 11, the left and right sides of the mounting bracket 31 are respectively hinged to the inner bottom wall of the cleaning tank 11 by two connecting rods 33.

[0033] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the drive assembly 32 includes a motor 321, a drive gear 322, and a sector gear 323. The motor 321 is mounted on the frame 10, and its output shaft extends into the cleaning tank 11. The sector gear 323 is mounted on one of the connecting rods 33, and the sector gear 323 and the lower end of the connecting rod 33 are coaxially distributed at the hinge point of the cleaning tank 11. The drive gear 322 is coaxially fixedly mounted on the output shaft. The drive gear 322 meshes with the sector gear 323. The motor 321 drives the drive gear 322 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 33 to swing left and right through the sector gear 323.

[0034] To improve the stability of the reciprocating movement of the jitter mechanism, two or more drive components 32 can be provided, with each link 33 connected to one drive component 32.

[0035] The mounting bracket 31 is a rectangular frame structure, and the cleaning mesh frame 20 is installed inside the rectangular frame structure.

[0036] Furthermore, the frame 10 is also equipped with a vegetable retrieval mechanism 40, which is used to retrieve the vegetables from the washing tank 11. After washing, the vegetables are retrieved from the washing tank 11 using the vegetable retrieval mechanism 40.

[0037] Based on the above, the vegetable scooping mechanism 40 includes a drive component 41, a rotating shaft 42, and a grabbing fence 43. The drive component 41 is mounted on the frame 10. The rotating shaft 42 is horizontally and rotatably mounted on the frame 10 in the left-right direction and is located on one side above the washing tank 11. The grabbing fence 43 is mounted on the rotating shaft 42.

[0038] Referring to the attached drawings, the grabbing bars 43 of the vegetable scooping mechanism 40 are initially vertically distributed and extend into the washing tank 11. After the vegetables are cleaned, the turnover frame containing the vegetables is placed on one side of the frame 10. After the driving component 41 drives the rotating shaft 42 to rotate at least 270°, the vegetables in the washing tank 11 are scooped out and put into the turnover frame.

[0039] Preferably, there are two vegetable retrieval mechanisms 40, with the rotating shafts 42 of the two vegetable retrieval mechanisms 40 respectively located on both sides above the washing tank 11. Each grab bar 43 has multiple spaced rods, and the rods of the grab bars 43 of the two vegetable retrieval mechanisms 40 are distributed intersectingly.

[0040] The rods of the two vegetable scooping mechanisms 40 are distributed in a crisscross pattern. After the vegetables are cleaned, the two rotating shafts 42 rotate synchronously to fully scoop out the vegetables from the cleaning tank 11.

[0041] This utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
