Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated cleaning technology for food processing equipment, specifically a brine basket cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] Braising baskets are mainly used in braising factories to hold braised products and place them together in a braising pot for heating and braising. Because each batch of braised products needs to maintain a relatively consistent taste, each batch of braised products needs to be placed in the same braising basket and pot for braising. These braising baskets are often quite large. When cleaning the braising baskets, food processing plants usually use manual brushing and soaking. Due to their large size, manual brushing is often inconvenient. When brushing the inside and outside of the braising basket, it is necessary to turn the basket over multiple times. During the handling process, the braising basket is prone to deformation. Most braising baskets have a hollow structure on the side wall, which is not strong and is easily damaged when it is hit. At the same time, even small deformations can cause the hollow holes to cut the skin when manually brushing. In addition, manual brushing is inefficient and cannot be adapted to the cleaning of large batches of braising baskets.
[0003] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a brine basket cleaning machine, which can solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

The cleaning base includes lateral frames fixed to both sides above the water tank, and each of the lateral frames is provided with a rotating seat.
[0006] The basket-turning assembly includes two docking seats and a flipping motor connected to one of the rotating seats. The output end of the flipping motor is connected to one docking seat, and one side of the other docking seat is connected to the inside of the other rotating seat via a rotating column.
[0007] The upper part of the two docking seats is connected to a guide locking component for guiding and fixing the interior and edge of the brine basket.

[0036] A lifting component 206 is connected below the two docking slots 202, and the lifting component 206 is used to push the guide locking component 207 to rise and fall.
[0037] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3-5The cleaning base 1 includes an inlet frame 101, with an opening on one side. The bottom of the inlet frame 101 is provided with a linear guide groove 103, and a tray 104 is slidably connected above the linear guide groove 103. A limiting rod is provided on the side of the inlet frame 101 away from the opening.

[0040] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1-3 The bottom of the docking seat 202 is fixedly provided with a sleeve 203. The lifting assembly 206 includes two lifting cylinders 204 fixed to one side of the sleeve 203. The guide locking assembly 207 includes two inner sleeves 209 respectively sleeved on the upper part of the two docking seats 202. The top of each inner sleeve 209 is provided with a mounting block connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 204. The top of the two inner sleeves 209 is connected to a guide frame 211. The lifting assembly 206 also includes a lifting assembly 206. The top of the lifting assembly 206 is connected to the guide frame 211 for lifting and lowering the brine basket 4.
[0041] The lifting assembly 206 includes a lifting frame 213, on which a side lifting arm 214 is provided, and the side lifting arm 214 is connected to the guide frame 211.
[0042] The lifting frame 213 is fixedly provided with sliding seats 215 at both ends, and the lifting cylinder 204 is provided with a guide rod 205 on the side. The sliding seat 215 is slidably connected to the inside of the guide rod 205. The end of the sliding seat 215 away from the lifting frame 213 is connected to a lifting block for supporting the bottom of the brine basket 4.
[0043] The lifting block has a folding groove 218 at one end away from the sliding seat 215. A lifting claw 217 is rotatably connected inside the folding groove 218. A rotary motor 216 is provided above the folding groove 218, and the rotary motor 216 drives the lifting claw 217 to rotate.
[0044] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1-3The docking seat 202 is a connecting sleeve, and the inner sleeve group 209 is slidably sleeved inside the docking seat 202. When the inner sleeve group 209 moves downward, it is sleeved inside the sleeve box 203. The docking seat 202 is provided with locking cylinders 208 on both sides. One end of the two locking cylinders 208 is pneumatically connected to a rotating gripper 210. The two rotating grippers 210 are fixed on both sides of the mounting block.

Both ends of the guide frame 211 are fixedly connected to the two mounting blocks, and each end of the guide frame 211 has an inner claw 212 below the far end of the cross. One end of the cross structure of the guide frame 211 is connected to the lifting component 206.
[0046] The specific implementation of this utility model is as follows: When cleaning the brine basket 4, the brine basket 4 is manually placed on the tray 104. At this time, the tray 104 slides to the opening end of the guide frame 101 through the linear guide groove 103. The tray 104 is manually pushed along the linear guide groove 103 until the side of the brine basket 4 is in contact with the limiting rod. The locking stake 106 is fixed with the positioning groove 107. The water pump connected to the bottom of the tray 104 is used to supply water for pre-spraying. Similarly, the bottom of the guide frame 101 and the water tank 3 can be connected without a water pump. Only external spraying (such as the spraying above) is used, and the bottom water tank 3 only recovers liquid. The lifting cylinder 204 is used to lower the upper guide locking component 207. During the downward movement of the fixing block, the side lifting arm 214 drives the lifting component 206 to fall synchronously until the rotating gripper 210 grabs the upper edge of the brine basket 4. At this time, the rotating angle motor 216 rotates the lifting claw 217 to the bottom of the brine basket 4, lifting the bottom of the brine basket 4. The distance between the lifting height of the lifting component 206 and the engagement height of the rotating gripper 210 is greater than or equal to the height of the brine basket 4. At this time, the inner diameter of the brine basket 4 is limited by the four inner claws 212 around the guide frame 211 to prevent lateral swaying during rotation. The outer diameter is fixed by the rotating grippers 210 on both sides. The bottom is lifted by the lifting claw 217. At this time, the lifting cylinder 204 is driven so that the height centerline of the brine basket 4 is located at the height of the axis of the two rotating seats 105. The spraying is carried out synchronously in conjunction with the rotating flip motor 201 to achieve multi-angle spraying. At the same time, the flip motor 201 can be shielded and the brine basket 4 can be directly manually brushed. The brine basket 4 is manually rotated and brushed by the two rotating seats 105 connecting shaft fulcrum. The brine basket 4 can also be manually cleaned.
[0047] The present invention has been described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvement made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention to other occasions without modification, shall be within the protection scope of the present invention.
