Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mussel cleaning technology, specifically to a rapid mussel cleaning device that prevents mud and sand from clogging mussels. Background Technology

[0002] Mussels, also known as sea mussels, are bivalve mollusks. After cooking, they are processed into dried mussels. They have dark brown shells and live on coastal rocks, distributed along the Yellow Sea, Bohai Sea, and East China Sea in China. The shell is wedge-shaped, tapering at the front and broad and rounded at the back. The shell is typically 6-8 cm long, less than twice its height. The shell is thin, with the apex near the front. The two valves are equal in size and symmetrical. The shell surface is purplish-black and glossy, with fine and distinct growth lines that form a ring from the apex. After harvesting, mussels need to be cleaned, but manual cleaning is inefficient and costly.

[0003] The currently disclosed Chinese patent CN215455091U describes a rapid mussel cleaning device, which includes a mussel cleaning and sorting drum, a mussel cleaning box, connecting pipes, a mussel inlet trough, flushing nozzles, a mussel drum sorting device, a small mussel chute, a cleaning and stirring device, a mussel outlet, and a mud and sand filter plate. By controlling the mesh diameter of the cleaning drum, smaller mussels are screened out and can be sold separately. The washing drum rotates due to gravity, which frictionally washes away mud and sand, reducing manual labor. The cleaning and stirring device stirs the small mussels and mud and sand, filtering the mud and sand out through the mud and sand filter plate, thus cleaning the mussels. This invention replaces manual washing and speeds up work efficiency. This utility model is equipped with four flushing nozzles to effectively wash away the mud and sand on the surface of the mussels and accelerate the flow of mud and sand, thereby cleaning the mussels.

[0004] According to the aforementioned patent, the device uses a cleaning and stirring device to stir small mussels and mud, and filters the mud out from the mud filter plate. Since the filter plate is not moving during operation, it is difficult to clean the mud on the surface of the filter plate by relying solely on the natural filtration of the mud by the filter plate, and the mud is very likely to clog the filter plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, 1. A rapid mussel cleaning device to prevent mud and sand blockage, characterized in that it includes a base 1, a support 2, a cleaning mechanism 3, and a sorting mechanism 4. The support 2 is disposed on the base 1, and a feed pipe 21 is disposed on the top of the support 2. The cleaning mechanism 3 is disposed on the support 2 and includes a cleaning box 31, a rotating component 32, and a supporting component 33. The cleaning box 31 includes a feed inlet 311 and a discharge outlet 312. A first guide plate 3121 is disposed below the discharge outlet 312. The feed inlet 311 cooperates with the feed pipe 21. The sorting mechanism 4 is located on one side of the support 2 and includes a sorting box 41. A filter plate 411 is disposed at the bottom of the sorting box 41. The sorting mechanism 4 also includes a screening component 42 that can screen the size of the mussels, a flushing component 43 that can wash away the mud and sand on the surface of the mussels, and a vibration component 44 that prevents the mud and sand from accumulating in the sorting box 41.

[0024] During operation, the cleaning mechanism 3 and the sorting mechanism 4 are activated. Workers feed mussels into the inlet pipe 21, where they enter the cleaning tank 31. The rotating component 32 rotates the cleaning tank 31 and the mussels inside, causing them to tumble and rub against each other, thus cleaning them. After a certain cleaning time, the mussels exit through the outlet 312 and pass through the first guide plate 3121 into the sorting tank 41. The vibration component 44 drives the sorting tank 41 to vibrate at a low amplitude and high frequency. During this vibration, the screening component 42 separates the mussels from the sorting tank 41. The mussels are sorted by size, and the rinsing component 43 uses high water pressure to wash away the mud and sand on the surface of the mussels. The mud and sand will eventually be filtered out by the filter plate 411 at the bottom of the sorting box 41. With the setting of the sorting mechanism 4, when the rinsing component 43 is washing the mud and sand on the surface of the mussels, the vibration component 44 and the screening component 42 work together. Under the action of the vibration component 44, the screening component 42 can not only sort the mussels by size, but also vibrate and remove the mud and sand on the surface of the filter plate 411, so as to avoid the accumulation of mud and sand on the filter plate 411 and thus blockage.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the screening component 42 includes a first screening plate 421 and a second screening plate 422. The first screening plate 421 is inclinedly disposed inside the sorting box 41 and is connected to the sorting box 41. The second screening plate 422 is inclinedly disposed inside the sorting box 41 and is located below the first screening plate 421. The screening aperture of the second screening plate 422 is smaller than that of the first screening plate 421. A second guide plate 423 is provided below the end of the second screening plate 422, the first screening plate 421, and the sorting box 41 away from the discharge port 312. The second guide plate 423 is connected to the sorting box 41. The discharge ports of the three second guide plates 423 are staggered. A collection box 424 is provided below each discharge port.

[0026] Under the action of the vibration component 44, the vibration component 44 will cause the sorting box 41 to vibrate. While the sorting box 41 vibrates, it will also cause the first screening plate 421 and the second screening plate 422 to vibrate. Since the first screening plate 421 and the second screening plate 422 are tilted, the mussels will move forward when the first screening plate 421 and the second screening plate 422 vibrate. The screening aperture of the second screening plate 422 is smaller than that of the first screening plate 421, which ensures that larger mussels will be left on the top of the first screening plate 421, medium-sized mussels will be left on the top of the second screening plate 422, and very small mussels will be left on the filter plate 411 at the bottom of the sorting box 41. The sorted mussels will enter the collection box 424 through the second guide plate 423.

[0027] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the flushing assembly 43 includes a water pump 431, which is mounted on the base 1. The water pump 431 has a main water pipe 432, one end of which is connected to the water pump 431. A branch water pipe 433 is connected to the main water pipe 432. The branch water pipe 433 extends above the first screening plate 421 and the second screening plate 422. The branch water pipe 433 is connected to the sorting box 41. Multiple nozzles 434 are mounted on the branch water pipe 433. One end of each nozzle 434 is connected to the branch water pipe 433, and the other end of each nozzle 434 faces the corresponding first screening plate 421 and second screening plate 422.

[0028] During operation, water pump 431 draws water, and the water flows through the main water pipe 432, the branch water pipe 433 and the nozzle 434 to wash the mussels on the first screening plate 421 and the second screening plate 422, thereby washing away the mud and sand on the surface of the mussels.

[0029] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the vibration assembly 44 includes a first rotary motor 441, a turntable 442, a pull rod 444, and a connecting rod 445. The first rotary motor 441 is mounted on the base 1 and connected to the base 1. The turntable 442 is mounted on the output shaft of the first rotary motor 441 and connected to the output shaft of the first rotary motor 441. A driven rod 443 is provided at the eccentric end of the turntable 442 away from the first rotary motor 441 and is connected to the turntable 442. The connecting rod 445 is located at the end of the sorting box 41 near the support 2 and is connected to the sorting box 41. Buffer assemblies 45 are provided at the corners at the bottom of the sorting box 41. One end of the pull rod 444 is rotatably connected to the driven rod 443, and the other end of the pull rod 444 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 445.

[0030] During operation, the first rotary motor 441 starts, driving the turntable 442 to rotate. The rotation of the turntable 442 drives the pull rod 444 to move via the driven rod 443. At the same time, the pull rod 444 moves via the connecting rod 445, driving the sorting box 41 to move. The buffer component 45 ensures the direction of movement of the sorting box 41 during vibration.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the buffer assembly 45 includes a first support leg 451, a second support leg 452, a limiting rod 453, and a compression spring 454. The first support leg 451 is mounted on the base 1 and connected to the base 1. The second support leg 452 is located at the bottom of the sorting box 41 and directly above the first support leg 451. The limiting rod 453 is located at one end of the second support leg 452 near the first support leg 451 and is connected to the second support leg 452. A groove is provided on the top of the first support leg 451 for the limiting rod 453 to move. The compression spring 454 is sleeved on the limiting rod 453. One end of the compression spring 454 abuts against the first support leg 451, and the other end of the compression spring 454 abuts against the second support leg 452.

[0032] When the sorting box 41 vibrates, the compression spring 454 will buffer the sorting box 41, and the limit rod 453 will ensure the direction of the sorting box 41 during vibration.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the rotating assembly 32 includes a second rotating motor 321, a gear 322, and a spur gear 323. The second rotating motor 321 is located on one side of the bottom of the cleaning tank 31 and is connected to the bracket 2. The gear 322 is located on the output shaft of the second rotating motor 321 and is connected to the output shaft of the second rotating motor 321. The spur gear 323 is located on the peripheral wall of the cleaning tank 31 near the end of the second rotating motor 321 and is meshed with the gear 322.

[0034] When in operation, the second rotary motor 321 starts, which drives the gear 322 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 322 drives the cleaning box 31 to rotate through the spur gear 323. The rotation of the cleaning box 31 causes the mussels inside to roll.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the support assembly 33 includes a first support frame 331 and a rolling groove 332. The first support frame 331 is mounted on the bracket 2, with one end connected to the bracket 2 and the other end rotatably connected to the cleaning tank 31. There are two rolling grooves 332, which are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the cleaning tank 31 and connected to the cleaning tank 31. A second support frame 3331 is provided on both sides of the rolling groove 332 and is connected to the bracket 2. The second support frame 3331 is equipped with a roller 333, which is rotatably connected to the second support frame 3331. The working end of the roller 333 is rotatably connected to its corresponding rolling groove 332.

[0036] When the cleaning tank 31 rotates, it drives the rolling groove 332 to rotate. The rotation of the rolling groove 332 drives the roller 333 connected to it to rotate. The arrangement of the roller 333 and the first support frame 331 can reduce the friction when the cleaning tank 31 rotates, making it easier to rotate.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the diameter of the inlet 311 of the cleaning tank 31 is smaller than the diameter of the outlet 312, and the inner wall of the cleaning tank 31 is inclined.

[0038] The inclined inner wall of the cleaning tank 31 allows the cleaning tank 31 to not only clean the mussels when it rotates, but also to send the mussels from the discharge port 312 to the sorting box 41.

[0039] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
