Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vegetable cleaning technology, and in particular relates to a vegetable cleaning device with a drainage structure. Background Technology

[0002] Vegetables refer to a class of plants or fungi that can be cooked into food. They are an essential part of people's daily diet. Vegetables can be processed in different ways according to their characteristics, such as stir-frying, stewing, boiling, and steaming. A reasonable combination of vegetables and cooking methods helps to improve their nutritional value and meet the body's needs for various nutrients. At the same time, vegetables are also an important component of the food pyramid. Consuming an appropriate amount of vegetables daily helps maintain good health. Vegetables in supermarkets need to be washed before being put on the shelves to remove surface dirt, thus improving their appearance.

[0013] In summary, this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0014] Firstly, this utility model describes a vegetable washing device with a draining structure. It describes how a draining tube is installed inside a washing cylinder, and an installation shaft is installed in the draining tube. Multiple sets of washing brushes are installed on the installation shaft. At the same time, the installation shaft can be driven to rotate by a second motor installed on the left side of the washing cylinder. With the addition of clean water injected into the washing cylinder, the vegetables in the draining tube can be cleaned. Compared with the comparative case, this device has a closed washing cylinder when washing vegetables, which has a better cleaning effect on vegetables. Moreover, the surface dirt of vegetables can be thoroughly cleaned by repeated washing.

[0015] Secondly, this utility model describes a vegetable washing device with a drainage structure. It describes how two sets of rotating rings are installed on the outside of the washing cylinder, with the rotating rings installed in grooves opened on the inner sides of the first and second mounting rings. This allows the washing cylinder to rotate within the first and second mounting rings. A driven wheel is installed on the outside of the washing cylinder, and a drive wheel meshes with the driven wheel. The drive wheel can be driven to rotate by a first motor, which in turn drives the washing cylinder to rotate via the driven wheel. This allows residual washing water on the vegetables to be thrown into the inside of the washing cylinder and collected. Then, this portion of the washing water can be drained through a drain pipe, thus preventing excessive moisture from remaining on the vegetables. This allows workers to quickly place the vegetables on the sales shelves, saving labor costs. Attached Figure Description
