Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, and more specifically, it relates to an automatic cleaning device for fried noodle boxes. Background Technology

[0002] Deep-fried instant noodles are made by deep-frying the noodles at high temperatures to remove moisture. The noodles are then transported on a conveyor belt onto noodle boxes (a metal mesh structure). During frying, starch or small bits of noodle stick to the noodle boxes, forming burnt residue on their surface. This residue is carried into new noodle cakes during continuous production, affecting the quality of the noodles. Therefore, the machine needs to be stopped periodically, and the residue needs to be manually wiped clean repeatedly with water guns and towels. This process is not only labor-intensive but also severely impacts production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0027] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0028] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 2 The present invention provides an automatic cleaning device for a fried noodle box 3. The automatic cleaning device for the fried noodle box 3 includes: a support plate 1, a support shaft 101, a scraper, a spray pipe 102, and a high-pressure water pump 103. The support plate 1 is located outside the conveyor belt 2; the support shaft 101 is fixedly connected to the support plate 1, and the support shaft 101 is located above the conveyor belt 2 and perpendicular to the transmission direction of the conveyor belt 2; one end of the scraper is mounted on the support shaft 101, and the other end contacts the upper surface of the noodle box 3; the spray pipe 102 is fixedly mounted on the scraper, and the outlet of the spray pipe 102 faces the noodle box 3; the high-pressure water pump 103 is fixedly mounted on the support plate 1, and the high-pressure water pump 103 is connected to the spray pipe 102 through a water pipe 104.

[0029] This embodiment provides an automatic cleaning device for fried dough boxes 3. Compared with the prior art, a support plate 1 is installed on the outside of the conveyor belt 2, a scraper is installed on the support plate 1 via a support shaft 101, a spray pipe 102 is installed on the scraper, and a high-pressure water pump 103 delivers high-pressure water to the spray pipe 102 via a water pipe 104. As the conveyor belt 2 moves the dough box 3, the scraper first scrapes off the burnt residue on the dough box 3, and then the spray pipe 102 sprays high-pressure water onto the dough box 3. Under the action of the high-pressure water, the burnt residue falls through the mesh on the dough box 3, thereby achieving automatic cleaning of the dough box 3 without manual operation, reducing labor intensity and improving production efficiency.

[0030] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The scraper is rotatably connected to the support shaft 101. In this embodiment, the conveyor belt 2 travels horizontally, and the scraper is tilted towards the direction of the conveyor belt 2. The spray pipe 102 is fixedly installed on the side of the face box 3 directly opposite the scraper. Because the surface of the face box 3 is uneven, the scraper and the support shaft 101 are designed to be rotatably connected. When the scraper encounters a protruding structure on the face box 3, it rotates to effectively avoid the protruding structure and prevent the scraper from getting stuck.

[0031] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 A torsion spring 105 is installed between the scraper and the support shaft 101. In this embodiment, the torsion spring 105 is fitted onto the support shaft 101. The torsion spring 105 applies a force to the scraper, thereby increasing the force between the scraper and the faceplate 3, enabling the scraper to clean the coke residue more thoroughly.

[0032] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The scraper is equipped with U-shaped pipe clamps 106 for fixing the spray pipe 102. In this embodiment, there are multiple U-shaped pipe clamps 106 to fix the spray pipe 102 to the scraper. The spray pipe 102 is arranged horizontally and perpendicular to the transmission direction of the conveyor belt 2. The water outlet opening faces downward and is evenly distributed along the length of the spray pipe 102.

[0033] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The scraper has a split structure, including a support base 107 and a scraper body 108. The support base 107 is rotatably connected to the support shaft 101, and the scraper body 108 is hinged to the support base 107. The hinge axis of the scraper body 108 is parallel to the support shaft 101. In this embodiment, there are two support bases 107, located at both ends of the length of the support shaft 101. The scraper body 108 is hinged to both support bases 107. The hinge axis of the scraper body 108 is parallel to the support shaft 101. The scraper body 108 can swing up and down around its own hinge axis. After the slag on the dough box 3 is cleaned, the scraper body 108 can be rotated upwards to store it while ensuring that the dough fibers can pass through smoothly. The water pipe 104 is a flexible hose that can move with the scraper body 108.

[0034] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 2 to 5A pin 109 is installed between the support base 107 and the scraper body 108. In this embodiment, the support base 107 and the scraper body 108 are fixedly connected by the pin 109. When the scraper body 108 needs to be stored, the pin 109 can be pulled out. The pin 109 is perpendicular to the hinge axis of the scraper body 108. The fixed connection method using the pin 109 is simple in structure and convenient in operation.

[0035] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 An elastic reset member 110 is installed between the pin 109 and the support base 107. In this embodiment, the elastic reset member 110 is a tension spring, which is sleeved on the pin 109, and its two ends are fixedly connected to the pin 109 and the support base 107, respectively. The tension spring applies a force to the pin 109 toward the scraper body 108, thereby preventing the pin 109 from dislodging from the scraper body 108.

[0036] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 A magnetic suction element 111 is fixedly installed on the support plate 1. When the scraper body 108 is folded upward, the magnetic suction element 111 fixes the scraper body 108. In this embodiment, the scraper body 108 is a steel plate made of high-carbon steel. The scraper body 108 is folded by rotating upward 90°, at which point the magnetic suction element 111 comes into contact with the scraper body 108. The magnetic suction element 111 uses its own magnetic force to fix the scraper body 108.

[0037] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 A wastewater collection tank 112 is fixedly installed on the support plate 1. The wastewater collection tank 112 is located directly below the spray pipe 102 and inside the conveyor belt 2. In this embodiment, the wastewater collection tank 112 is fixedly installed on the support plate 1, and is located inside the conveyor belt 2 and directly below the spray pipe 102. The water sprayed from the spray pipe 102 mixes with the coke residue to form wastewater, which falls into the wastewater collection tank 112 through the mesh on the face box 3, thereby achieving wastewater collection.

[0038] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 A filter screen 113 is installed inside the wastewater recycling tank 112. In this embodiment, the filter screen 113 filters particulate impurities in the wastewater to obtain clean water, thus achieving recycling.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
