[0026] 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.

[0027] Example

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cleaning device for konjac processing, which consists of a cleaning cylinder 1 and a conveying cylinder 2.

[0029] The cleaning cylinder 1 is inclined and connected to the conveying cylinder 2. The inside is used to hold konjac and cleaning liquid. An installation plate 9 is installed in the upper middle part, and the bottom is connected to the discharge box 13 through the connection hole 14.

[0030] The inclined design facilitates the movement of konjac twigs forward during the washing process by gravity and the propulsion of the spiral blades 5, while also allowing wastewater and impurities to flow to the discharge box 13; providing space for the washing of konjac twigs so that they can be thoroughly cleaned.

[0031] The conveyor cylinder 2 is inclined, with a support leg 3 fixedly installed at the bottom, a rotary motor 4 fixedly connected to one end, a spiral blade 5 installed inside through a bearing seat 6, a bracket 7 installed on top, and a discharge hopper 8 at one point.

[0032] Together with the washing cylinder 1, it forms the washing and conveying channel for konjac. The inclined setting facilitates the conveying of konjac to the discharge hopper 8 after washing. The support leg 3 keeps the entire device stable. The rotary motor 4 drives the spiral blade 5 to rotate, realizing the conveying of konjac. The bracket 7 is used to install the washing nozzle. The discharge hopper 8 facilitates the discharge of washed konjac.

[0033] The support leg 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the conveyor cylinder 2.

[0034] Support the entire cleaning device to keep it stable and ensure that it does not shake or tilt during operation, thus guaranteeing the normal operation of cleaning and conveying work.

[0035] There are two rotary motors 4, which are installed at one end of the conveying cylinder 2 respectively. Their output ends are fixedly connected to the spiral blades 5, and the spiral blades 5 are connected in different directions of rotation.

[0036] The power source drives the spiral blades 5 to rotate. The two spiral blades 5 rotating in different directions allow the konjac to be both propelled forward in the washing cylinder 1 and the conveying cylinder 2, and to be fully tumbled and stirred during the washing process, thus improving the washing effect and preventing the konjac from accumulating and clogging during the washing process.

[0037] The spiral blade 5 is rotatably installed in the cleaning cylinder 1 and the conveying cylinder 2 via the bearing seat 6. Supports 7 are provided on both the left and right sides, and their shapes are adapted to the notches 12 on the guard plate 11.

[0038] Driven by the rotary motor 4, it rotates and pushes the konjac to move in the cleaning cylinder 1 and the conveying cylinder 2 to achieve the conveying function; at the same time, when it is in the cleaning cylinder 1, its rotation can make the konjac roll, so that all surfaces of the konjac can come into contact with the cleaning liquid and the water sprayed from the nozzle, enhancing the cleaning effect; when it is adapted to the notch 12, the spiral blade 5 can pass through smoothly without affecting its rotation and pushing of the konjac.

[0039] The bearing housing 6 is installed in the cleaning cylinder 1 and the conveying cylinder 2 to support the rotating shaft of the spiral blade 5.

[0040] This allows the spiral blades 5 to rotate stably in the cleaning cylinder 1 and the conveying cylinder 2, reducing frictional resistance during rotation, ensuring that the power of the rotary motor 4 is effectively transmitted to the spiral blades 5, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0041] The bracket 7 is installed above the conveyor cylinder 2, and there are cleaning nozzles on both the left and right sides of the spiral blade 5, which are fixedly installed through pipes.

[0042] Provide an installation position for the cleaning nozzle so that it can be stably installed above the conveyor cylinder 2 to spray water to clean the konjac below, and further improve the cleaning effect in conjunction with the high-pressure nozzle 10.

[0043] The discharge hopper 8 is located below the bearing seat 6 of the conveying cylinder 2 and is connected to the conveying cylinder 2.

[0044] After being cleaned, the konjac is pushed to this point by the spiral blades 5 and discharged out of the device through the discharge hopper 8, making it convenient to collect the cleaned konjac and facilitate subsequent processing.

[0045] Mounting plate 9 is installed above the cleaning cylinder 1 and connected to high-pressure nozzle 10 via a pipe.

[0046] The high-pressure nozzle 10 is fixed and a stable mounting base is provided for it, so that the high-pressure nozzle 10 can spray water on the konjac in the cleaning cylinder 1 to ensure the comprehensiveness and effectiveness of the cleaning.

[0047] The high-pressure nozzle 10 is connected to the mounting plate 9 via a pipe, and the tilt angles are set differently.

[0048] Under the water supply pressure of the water pump, water is sprayed out in a high-pressure form. Due to the different tilt angles, the konjac can be rinsed from multiple directions, effectively removing dirt, impurities and other pollutants from the surface of the konjac, improving the cleaning effect. Spraying water at different angles can also avoid cleaning dead corners.

[0049] The guard plate 11 is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting plate 9, and has a notch 12 on it. The shape of the notch 12 is adapted to the shape of the spiral blade 5.

[0050] The protective plate 11 can prevent konjac from splashing out of the cleaning cylinder 1 due to the impact of the water sprayed by the high-pressure nozzle 10 during the cleaning process; the notch 12 allows the spiral blade 5 to rotate normally without affecting its pushing and stirring function on the konjac.

[0051] The notch 12 is opened on the guard plate 11, and its shape is adapted to the shape of the spiral blade 5.

[0052] This ensures that the spiral blades 5 are not obstructed by the guard plate 11 during rotation, allowing the konjac cleaning and conveying process to proceed smoothly. Meanwhile, other parts of the guard plate 11 can still prevent the konjac from splashing out.

[0053] The discharge box 13 is connected to the bottom of the cleaning cylinder 1 through the connection hole 14, and a discharge pipe 15 is installed at one end, with a valve on the discharge pipe 15.

[0054] Wastewater and impurities generated during the cleaning process are collected. When discharge is required, the valve is opened and the wastewater and impurities are discharged through the discharge pipe 15, which facilitates centralized treatment of wastewater and impurities and maintains the cleanliness of the cleaning environment.

[0055] The connection hole 14 is located at the bottom of the cleaning cylinder 1 and is connected to the discharge box 13.

[0056] As a channel for the flow of sewage and impurities in the washing cylinder 1 to the discharge box 13, it allows sewage and impurities to smoothly enter the discharge box 13, ensuring the cleanliness of the washing cylinder 1 and facilitating the cleaning of konjac.

[0057] The discharge pipe 15 is installed at one end of the discharge box 13 and is equipped with a valve.

[0058] When the valve is opened, the sewage and impurities collected in the discharge box 13 are discharged to the designated location, which facilitates the subsequent treatment of sewage and impurities. The valve can control the discharge time and flow rate.

[0059] The working principle of the konjac processing cleaning device is as follows: First, the konjac is placed into the higher end of the cleaning cylinder 1. The rotary motor 4 is started, and the rotary motor 4 drives the spiral blades 5 to rotate. Since the spiral blades 5 connected to the two rotary motors 4 rotate in different directions, the konjac can both move forward and tumble fully in the cleaning cylinder 1. At the same time, the water pump delivers water to the high-pressure nozzle 10 and the cleaning nozzle mounted on the bracket 7. The high-pressure nozzle 10 sprays water at high pressure onto the konjac from different angles, while the cleaning nozzle sprays water downwards at an angle. The two work together to rinse the konjac from all directions, removing dirt, impurities, etc. from the surface of the konjac. The wastewater and impurities generated during the cleaning process flow into the discharge box 13 through the connection hole 14 at the bottom of the cleaning cylinder 1 under the action of gravity. The konjac enters the conveying cylinder 2 under the push of the spiral blades 5 and continues to be rinsed by the cleaning nozzles during the conveying process. Finally, the cleaned konjac is discharged through the discharge hopper 8. When it is necessary to deal with the wastewater and impurities in the discharge box 13, the valve on the discharge pipe 15 is opened to discharge it to the designated location.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, there are two rotary motors 4, and the spiral blades 5 connected to the rotary motors 4 rotate in different directions. In the conveying cylinder 2, the two spiral blades 5 with different rotation directions work together. While pushing the konjac towards the discharge hopper 8, the force generated by their opposite rotation can prevent the konjac from accumulating or getting stuck in a certain position due to the pushing in a single direction during the conveying process. This ensures that the konjac can be conveyed forward evenly and smoothly, improving the conveying efficiency and allowing the cleaned konjac to be discharged in time for subsequent processing steps.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, a bracket 7 is provided on both the left and right sides of the spiral blade 5. A cleaning nozzle is fixedly installed on the bracket 7 via a pipe, and the cleaning nozzle is inclined downwards. When the spiral blade 5 rotates and pushes the konjac twigs to move within the cleaning cylinder 1 and the conveying cylinder 2, the cleaning nozzles installed on the brackets 7 spray water onto the konjac twigs from both sides for cleaning. Because the cleaning nozzles are inclined downwards, the water jets can impact the surface of the konjac twigs at a certain angle. The water spraying from different angles on both sides can provide all-around coverage cleaning of the konjac twigs. Combined with the water spraying from the high-pressure nozzle 10 above, this ensures that the top, sides, and bottom of the konjac twigs are all cleaned, effectively removing dirt, impurities, and other contaminants adhering to the surface of the konjac twigs.

[0062] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the discharge hopper 8 is located below the bearing seat 6 of the conveying cylinder 2. When the konjac reaches the end of the conveying cylinder 2, that is, below the bearing seat 6, the konjac naturally falls into the discharge hopper 8 under its own gravity because of the discharge hopper 8 located there. This design does not require an additional power device to assist in the discharge, and relies on gravity to achieve the smooth discharge of the konjac, which is simple and reliable.

[0063] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the high-pressure nozzle 10 is set at different tilt angles; setting the high-pressure nozzle 10 at different tilt angles is intended to achieve all-round, multi-angle cleaning of konjac, ensuring that all parts of the konjac surface can be effectively rinsed, thereby improving the cleaning effect and quality.

[0064] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the shape of the notch 12 is adapted to the shape of the spiral blade 5; adapting the shape of the notch 12 to the shape of the spiral blade 5 is mainly to ensure the protective function of the guard plate 11 while not affecting the normal rotation of the spiral blade 5 and the pushing function of the konjac, thus ensuring the stable operation of the cleaning device.

[0065] In some embodiments, the cleaning nozzle and the high-pressure nozzle 10 are connected to a water pump via a pipeline, and the water pump is used to deliver water. Connecting the cleaning nozzle and the high-pressure nozzle 10 to the water pump via a pipeline and using the water pump to provide a stable water supply to the nozzle is mainly to realize the high-pressure water spray cleaning function, ensuring that there is sufficient water pressure and water volume during the cleaning process to effectively remove dirt and impurities from the surface of the konjac, thereby improving the cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0066] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
