The long rods are used to be fixedly connected to the fixed plate 7. The outer wall of the support rod 6 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 7. The outer wall of the fixed plate 7 is fixedly connected to the cleaning brush 8. The top of the cleaning tub 1 is fixedly provided with a U-shaped frame 9. Two sets of hanging ears are provided on both sides of the cleaning tub 1. The hanging ears fit and support the bottom of both ends of the U-shaped frame 9. The surface of the cleaning tub 1 is provided with a displacement component and a drive component.

[0033] Reference Figures 3-5The displacement assembly includes a U-shaped frame 9, the bottom of which is attached to the upper surface of the cleaning tub 1. A limit plate 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the U-shaped frame 9, and a rotating rod 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the limit plate 10. The outer wall of the rotating rod 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cleaning tub 1. An ear plate 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the U-shaped frame 9, and a bolt 13 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the ear plate 12. After the bolt 13 is released from the ear of the cleaning tub 1, the side of the U-shaped frame 9 near the rotating rod 11 can rotate. After one end of the U-shaped frame 9 contacts the limit plate, it can be released from obstruction of the cleaning tub 1. The outer wall of the bolt 13 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the cleaning tub 1. The drive assembly includes a second motor 14. The outer wall of the filter canister 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the U-shaped frame 9. The output end of the motor 2 14 is fixedly connected to a self-locking telescopic rod 15 via a rotating shaft. A threaded ring 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the self-locking telescopic rod 15. A rotating column 17 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded ring 16. The outer wall of the rotating column 17 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame 18. A fixed frame 18 is provided on the surface of the filter canister 2. The fixed frame 18 facilitates the lifting of the filter canister 2. A fixed shaft 19 is provided on the inner surface of the fixed frame 18. The outer wall of the fixed shaft 19 is adapted to the inner wall of the fixed frame 18. The outer wall of the fixed shaft 19 is adapted to the inner wall of the filter canister 2. The fixed shaft 19 can slide or rotate between the fixed frame 18 and the inner wall of the filter canister 2.

[0034] Reference Figures 3-4 The inner wall of the cleaning tank 1 is fixedly connected to an annular slide rail 20, and the outer surface of the annular slide rail 20 is slidably connected to a moving block 21. There are two sets of moving blocks 21, and the two sets of moving blocks 21 are mirror images of each other with the center point of the filter tank 2 as the axis of symmetry.

The fixed shaft 19 can be combined or separated from the moving block 21 through the external thread 22 and the threaded groove 23.

[0035] Working principle: Food ingredients are placed inside the filter bucket 2. Clean water is introduced into the cleaning bucket 1 through an external water pipe. Simultaneously, motors 3 and 14 are started. Motor 3 drives the support rod 6 to rotate forward via the disc 4, while motor 14 drives the fixed frame 18 to rotate in the opposite direction via the self-locking telescopic rod 15. This causes the cleaning brush 8 to rotate forward while the filter bucket 2 rotates in the opposite direction to clean the food, ensuring sufficient contact between the cleaning brush 8 and the food. When the filter bucket 2 rotates, two sets of moving blocks 21 slide on the annular slide rail 20 to ensure the stability of the filter bucket 2's rotation. After cleaning, motors 3 and 14 are turned off, and the fixed frame 18 is closed. The fixed shaft 19 is reversed, causing the external thread 22 to disengage from the thread groove 23. Then, the bolt 13 and the rotating column 17 are reversed in sequence. The bolt 13 disengages from the hanging lug of the cleaning tub 1, and the rotating column 17 disengages from the threaded ring 16. The U-shaped frame 9 is pushed to rotate around the center point of the rotating rod 11. After the U-shaped frame 9 is no longer directly above the cleaning tub 1, the support rod 6 is reversed until it disengages from the fixed tube 5 and is then removed from the filter tub 2. Finally, the filter tub 2 is removed from the cleaning tub 1 as a whole, which facilitates the unified handling of food and the removal and cleaning of the cleaning brush 8, ensuring that the cleanliness of the cleaning brush 8 itself can guarantee the subsequent cleaning quality.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present 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 the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
