Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn production and processing technology, specifically a cleaning device for processing fresh sweet and waxy corn. Background Technology

[0002] Fresh corn contains a variety of amino acids, vitamins, trace minerals, and fatty acids, and its nutritional value is far higher than that of fully mature corn kernels and processed products. It is an ideal nutritionally balanced food. Sweet glutinous corn is a new economic crop that can be used as both a fruit and a vegetable. It is rich in vitamins, amino acids, maltose, fructose, and plant molasses, and has extremely high nutritional value. It is also easily digested and absorbed by the human body and can be eaten fresh, stir-fried, used in soups, or processed into canned food.

[0003] Sweet glutinous corn is beloved for its sweet taste and rich nutrition. However, during harvesting and transportation, it is often contaminated by various pollutants. To ensure the quality and safety of sweet glutinous corn, a cleaning device is needed for processing fresh sweet glutinous corn. Existing cleaning devices for fresh sweet glutinous corn cannot reuse water during cleaning, resulting in significant water waste and making it difficult to meet the demands of sweet glutinous corn processing. Furthermore, existing corn cleaning devices require filtration of the cleaning water for reuse, but these devices do not effectively remove filtered impurities. This leads to blockage of the cleaning structure after prolonged use, reducing the device's cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[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 As shown, a cleaning device for processing fresh sweet and waxy corn includes a storage hopper 1 for easy placement of corn, a vertically fixed support rod 2 at the top of the storage hopper 1 for protecting a sleeve 3, and a horizontally fixed sleeve 3 at the top of the support rod 2 for protecting a water supply pipe 93. A water tank 4 is fixed to one side of the storage hopper 1 for storing cleaning water; and a horizontally fixed section is installed on the inner wall of the water tank 4. The filter cylinder 5 facilitates the filtration of washing water. The inlet of the filter cylinder 5 is connected to the inlet pipe 6, which facilitates the transportation of washing water from the storage hopper 1 to the water storage tank 4. The outlet of the filter cylinder 5 is connected to the horizontally arranged drain pipe 7, which facilitates the discharge of filtered impurities. A control valve 8 is installed on the outside of the drain pipe 7, which facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the drain pipe 7. A washing mechanism 9 for washing corn is installed on the top of the water storage tank 4.

[0023] The cleaning mechanism 9 includes a water pump 91 installed on the top of the water storage tank 4, with the inlet end of the water pump 91 connected to the inner wall of the water storage tank 4. By installing the water pump 91, water in the water storage tank 4 can be easily transported to the water guide pipe 92. The outlet end of the water pump 91 is connected to the vertically installed water guide pipe 92. By installing the water guide pipe 92, water can be easily transported to the water delivery pipe 93. The inner wall of the sleeve 3 is provided with a horizontally installed water delivery pipe 93, and the inner wall of the water delivery pipe 93 is connected to the top end of the water guide pipe 92. By installing the water delivery pipe 93, water can be easily transported to the high-pressure nozzle 94. The inner wall of the water delivery pipe 93 is connected to several high-pressure nozzles 94. By installing the high-pressure nozzles 94, corn can be easily cleaned.

[0024] A support frame 10 is fixed to one side of the storage hopper 1. The support frame 10 facilitates the support of the motor 11. The motor 11 is mounted longitudinally on the top of the support frame 10, allowing it to drive the pulley assembly 12 to rotate. The output end of the motor 11 is fixed to the pulley assembly 12, which contains three belts. The pulley assembly 12 facilitates the rotation of the rotating rod 13. The output end of the pulley assembly 12 is fixed to a transversely positioned rotating rod 13, whose outer side is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the storage hopper 1. The rotating rod 13 facilitates the rotation of the transmission roller 14. The storage hopper 1 is rotatably connected to four sets of transmission rollers 14 on its inner wall, and one end of each set of transmission rollers 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 13. By setting the transmission rollers 14, it is easy to drive the brush rods 15 to rotate. Several brush rods 15 are set on the outer side of each of the four sets of transmission rollers 14. By setting the brush rods 15, it is easy to drive the corn to rotate, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the corn. Two sets of support legs 16 are fixed at the bottom of the storage hopper 1. By setting the support legs 16, it is easy to support the storage hopper 1. One end of the storage hopper 1 is provided with a feed hopper 17. By setting the feed hopper 17, it is easy to put the corn into the storage hopper 1.

[0025] Working principle: In use, corn is first fed into storage hopper 1 through feed hopper 17. Then, water pump 91 is started, which delivers water from water tank 4 to water pipe 92. Water pipe 92 then delivers water to water supply pipe 93, which in turn delivers water to high-pressure nozzle 94. The high-pressure nozzle 94 cleans the corn. At the same time, water in storage hopper 1 enters filter cylinder 5 through water inlet pipe 6, where the cleaning water is filtered. This operation achieves water circulation cleaning. When cleaning is complete, impurities are discharged through drain pipe 7 and control valve 8. Then, motor 11 is started, which drives pulley group 12 to rotate. Pulley group 12 drives rotating rod 13 to rotate, which in turn drives transmission roller 14 to rotate. Transmission roller 14 drives brush rod 15 to clean the corn, improving the practicality of the device.
