Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of morel mushroom processing technology, specifically to a cleaning device for dried morel mushrooms. Background Technology

[0002] Morel mushrooms are not only uniquely fragrant and rich in nutrients, but also contain multiple vitamins and amino acids. They are a precious edible and medicinal fungus. Their structure is similar to that of discus mushrooms, with a wrinkled, net-like upper part that resembles a sheep's stomach, hence the name. For easy preservation, morel mushrooms are usually dried before storage. They need to be washed before cooking.

[0003] Morel mushrooms' unique shape makes cleaning them inconvenient. Traditional methods typically involve placing the mushrooms directly into a water-filled cleaning tank and then using a brush to clean them. However, since the weight of dried morel mushrooms is less than their buoyancy, some of them will remain floating on the surface, preventing some parts from fully contacting the water and thus affecting the cleaning effect. Therefore, this application proposes a cleaning device for dried morel mushrooms. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a cleaning device for dried morel mushrooms in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A device for cleaning dried morel mushrooms, comprising:

[0007] The cleaning tank has electric push rods at both ends. The piston ends of the two electric push rods are connected to mounting brackets. Guide rods are rotatably mounted on the mounting brackets. One end of each guide rod is connected to a motor mounted on the mounting bracket. Two circular plates are fixed on the guide rods, and a mesh cylinder is rotatably connected between the two circular plates. The mesh cylinder has slots, and a mesh plate covering the slots is detachably mounted on the mesh cylinder. A partition frame is provided on the guide rod between the two circular plates to divide the inside of the mesh cylinder into several placement areas. Several brush rods are rotatably mounted between the two circular plates, each brush rod located within one of the placement areas. The mounting bracket is equipped with a drive unit for synchronously rotating the brush rods.

[0008] Furthermore, the driving component includes an internal gear ring mounted on a mounting bracket, and several brush rods are each fixed with a sprocket, and the sprockets mesh with the teeth of the internal gear ring.

[0009] Furthermore, one end of the mesh plate is hinged to the mesh cylinder, and both the mesh cylinder and the mesh plate are provided with L-shaped blocks at the ends away from the hinge point, with sealing strips slidably fitted on the two L-shaped blocks.

[0010] Furthermore, several plates of the partition frame are provided with through holes arranged in an array.

[0011] Furthermore, a changing tank is provided at the bottom of the cleaning tank, a filter screen is provided in the changing tank, a drain pipe is connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank, a conveying pipe is connected between the cleaning tank and the changing tank, and a water pump installed on the changing tank is connected to the conveying pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the filter screen is box-shaped, and two hooks are provided on the filter screen, which are hung and cooperate with the edge of the washing pool.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner wall of the washing pool is provided with conduits on opposite sides, and several spray pipes are arrayed and connected on the conduits. The end of the delivery pipe away from the washing pool is connected to the two conduits through a T-junction.

[0014] Furthermore, the mounting bracket has a shield portion that can block the opening of the cleaning pool.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0016] In this application, a circular plate and a mesh tube are installed on a guide rod to form a storage net bag. A partition frame is installed on the guide rod to divide the storage net bag into several areas. A brush rod is rotated within these areas to place the morel mushrooms into them. The storage net bag is then submerged in clean water, allowing the morel mushrooms to be effectively soaked. When the storage net bag rotates in the water, it not only moves the morel mushrooms but also agitates the water flow. Combined with the rotating and scraping action of the brush rod, this effectively cleans the morel mushrooms, thus improving its practicality.

[0017] In this application, a washing tank is set up below the washing tank, and a filter screen is installed in the washing tank. The clean water in the washing tank and the washing tank is circulated by a water pump and a delivery pipe. The water circulation combined with the filtration of the filter screen can remove the impurities generated during washing, and prevent the impurities from remaining in the washing tank and attaching to the morel mushrooms again, thereby improving the washing effect.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1-6 As shown, one embodiment of this application discloses a cleaning device for dried morel mushrooms, comprising:

[0027] A cleaning tank 1 has electric push rods 2 at both ends. The piston ends of the two electric push rods 2 are connected to mounting brackets 3. Guide rods 4 are rotatably mounted on the mounting brackets 3. One end of the guide rod 4 is connected to a motor 5 mounted on the mounting brackets 3. Preferably, the mounting brackets 3 have a horizontal plate and two vertical plates. The guide rod 4 is rotatably mounted on the two vertical plates. The output shaft of the motor 5 is connected to the guide rod 4 via a pulley assembly. During cleaning, clean water is added to the cleaning tank 1. The electric push rods 2 drive the mounting brackets 3 to descend, thus placing the guide rod 4 in the clean water. Through the linkage of the pulley assembly, the motor 5 can be ensured to function and drive the guide rod 4 to rotate normally, while preventing the motor 5 from contacting water. Two circular plates 6 are fixed on the guide rod 4, with space between the two circular plates 6. A mesh cylinder 7 is rotatably connected. Preferably, annular grooves are provided on opposite sides of the two circular plates 6. The two ends of the mesh cylinder 7 are rotatably inserted into the two annular grooves respectively. The mesh cylinder 7 and the guide rod 4 are coaxial. A through groove is provided on the mesh cylinder 7. A mesh plate 8 covering the through groove is detachably installed on the mesh cylinder 7. The detachable mesh plate 8 facilitates the placement of dried morel mushrooms in the mesh cylinder 7 or the removal of morel mushrooms from the mesh cylinder 7. A partition frame 9 is provided on the guide rod 4 and located between the two circular plates 6. It is used to divide the inside of the mesh cylinder 7 into several placement areas. Several brush rods 10 are rotatably arranged between the two circular plates 6, and the brush rods 10 are located in several placement areas respectively. The mounting frame 3 is provided with a mechanism for driving the brush rods 10 to rotate synchronously. The driving component 11, preferably, has a cross-shaped longitudinal section structure for the partition frame 9, which divides the inside of the mesh cylinder 7 into four areas. The end face of the end plate of the partition frame 9 overlaps with the inner wall of the mesh cylinder 7. There are four brush rods 10, which are located in the four areas respectively. Since the mesh cylinder 7 is rotatably connected to the two circular plates 6, the mesh cylinder 7 can be rotated to place the dried morel mushrooms into the four areas through the slots. After the morel mushrooms are placed, the slots are sealed by the mesh plate 8. The electric push rod 2 performs work, which drives the mounting frame 3 to descend, thereby immersing the mesh cylinder 7 in clean water. At this time, the motor 5 performs work to drive the guide rod 4 to rotate, thereby driving the partition frame 9 to rotate. Clean water can soak and wet the morel mushrooms through the perforations on the mesh cylinder 7. When the partition 9 rotates, it not only moves the morel mushrooms in each area to rotate in the water, but also agitates the water flow to clean the morel mushrooms. Since each area is equipped with rotating brush rods 10, the drive unit 11 drives several brush rods 10 to rotate. When the morel mushrooms roll in each area (each area contains clean water, and the flowing water will move the morel mushrooms), the brush rods 10 scrape and clean the morel mushrooms when they rotate. After cleaning, the electric push rod 2 drives the mounting frame 3 to rise. During the rising process, clean water can seep out from the perforations on the mesh cylinder 7 to drain the water. Then the mesh plate 8 is opened to remove the morel mushrooms, thus completing the cleaning operation.

[0028] In this design, a circular plate 6 and a mesh tube 7 are installed on the guide rod 4 to form a storage net bag. A partition frame 9 is installed on the guide rod 4 to divide the storage net bag into several areas. A brush rod 10 is rotated within these areas to place the morel mushrooms into them. The storage net bag is then submerged in clean water, allowing the morel mushrooms to be effectively soaked. When the storage net bag rotates in the water, it not only moves the morel mushrooms but also agitates the water flow. Combined with the rotating scraping action of the brush rod 10, this effectively cleans the morel mushrooms, thus improving its practicality.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the driving component 11 includes an internal gear ring 1101 mounted on the mounting bracket 3. A plurality of brush rods 10 are each fixedly provided with a sprocket 1102, and the plurality of sprockets 1102 mesh with the teeth of the internal gear ring 1101. When the guide rod 4 rotates, it drives the plurality of brush rods 10 to rotate around the guide rod 4. Since the brush rods 10 are fixedly provided with sprockets 1102 that mesh with the teeth of the internal gear ring 1101, and the position of the internal gear ring 1101 is fixed, the rotation of the sprockets 1102 drives the brush rods 10 to rotate, so as to achieve the effect of driving the plurality of brush rods 10 to rotate synchronously.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, one end of the mesh plate 8 is hinged to the mesh cylinder 7. Both the mesh cylinder 7 and the mesh plate 8 are provided with L-shaped blocks 12 at the ends away from the hinge point. A sealing strip 13 is slidably fitted on the two L-shaped blocks 12. Preferably, the sealing strip 13 is made of hard rubber and has a T-shaped groove. When the mesh plate 8 covers the groove around the hinge point, the two L-shaped blocks 12 overlap to form a T-shaped strip. At this time, the sealing strip 13 is fitted on the two L-shaped blocks 12. The T-shaped strip formed by the two L-shaped blocks 12 is inserted and matched with the T-shaped groove to achieve the function of fixing the mesh plate 8.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, through holes 14 are arrayed and opened on several plates of the partition frame 9. By opening through holes 14 on the partition frame 9, it is easy for clean water to flow to each area, thereby further improving the cleaning effect on morel mushrooms.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, a changing tank 15 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, and a filter screen 16 is provided inside the changing tank 15. A drain pipe 17 is connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, and a conveying pipe 18 is connected between the cleaning tank 1 and the changing tank 15. A water pump 19 installed on the changing tank 15 is connected to the conveying pipe 18. Preferably, a valve is provided on the drain pipe 17. During the actual cleaning process, clean water is added to the changing tank 15. The water in the cleaning tank 1 flows to the changing tank 15 through the drain pipe 17, and the clean water in the changing tank 15 is pumped out by the water pump 19. The water is then drawn back into the cleaning tank 1 via the conveying pipe 18, thus forming a water circulation. When cleaning morel mushrooms, the impurities will mix with the water. During the water circulation, the water carrying the impurities will pass through the filter screen 16, which will intercept the impurities. This water circulation during cleaning makes the water in the cleaning tank 1 active and allows the water to flow downwards, cleaning the impurities generated during cleaning and preventing them from remaining in the cleaning tank 1 and adhering to the morel mushrooms again, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the filter screen 16 is constructed in the shape of a box, and two hooks 22 are provided on the filter screen 16 and the two hooks 22 are hung and cooperate with the edge of the washing pool 15. By constructing the filter screen 16 in the shape of a box, it not only has the function of filtering, but also the function of collecting and storing. The hooks 22 are provided on it, which makes it easy to remove and clean the collected impurities, thereby improving its practicality.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, conduits 20 are provided on opposite sides of the inner wall of the washing tank 1, and several spray pipes 21 are arrayed and connected to the conduits 20. The end of the delivery pipe 18 away from the washing tank 15 is connected to two conduits 20 through a T-connector, such as... Figure 2 As shown, there are several drain pipes 17, each equipped with a valve. In actual use, after cleaning is completed, the flow rate of the drain pipes 17 can be adjusted to keep the cleaning tank 1 empty. The water in the washing tank 15 is then transported through the conveying pipe 18 to the two conduits 20, and then sprayed out through several spray pipes 21 to spray and clean the morel mushrooms, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the morel mushrooms.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting frame 3 has a baffle portion that can block the opening of the cleaning pool 1. By constructing a baffle portion on the mounting frame 3, when the electric push rod 2 moves the mounting frame 3 down and the morel mushrooms are soaked in clean water, the mounting frame 3 can also block the opening of the cleaning pool 1, preventing clean water from splashing outside the cleaning pool 1 when the water is rotated and stirred, thereby improving practicality.

[0036] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use this application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, this application is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
