Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of vegetable washing devices, specifically relating to a vegetable washing and mud removal device. Background Technology
[0002] For large supermarkets, canteens and other places with a large demand for vegetables, relying solely on manual cleaning is labor-intensive and time-consuming, and manual cleaning is inefficient. Therefore, in reality, cleaning machines and other cleaning devices are often used to clean vegetables semi-automatically or automatically to save manpower and improve efficiency.
[0003] In related prior art, such as Chinese Patent No. CN222840419U, a spray cleaning machine for vegetable processing is disclosed, including a main body and a convenient retrieval mechanism. The main body includes a machine base, and the convenient retrieval mechanism is installed inside the main body. The convenient retrieval mechanism includes a cleaning tank, and a reciprocating motor is connected inside the machine base, with a helical gear connected to one end of the reciprocating motor. This spray cleaning machine for vegetable processing, by installing a convenient retrieval mechanism inside the main body, achieves the effect of facilitating the handling of vegetables and saving work efficiency.
[0004] However, in actual use, the direct contact between the brush bristles and vegetables can easily damage their outer surface. Furthermore, the soft bristles mean that different types of vegetables have different weights; heavier vegetables may become stuck between the drive mechanism due to gravity, preventing effective cleaning, while lighter vegetables will float and not come into contact with the bristles, also resulting in ineffective cleaning. In conclusion, the above-mentioned device has poor cleaning performance in practical use and is not suitable for actual applications. Utility Model Content
[0005] The present invention aims to provide a vegetable washing and mud removal device to solve the problem of poor cleaning effect of existing washing devices mentioned above.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vegetable washing and mud removal device, comprising...
[0007] The machine has a cleaning tank installed on top and a motor installed at the bottom.
[0008] The cleaning mechanism includes a turntable, a filter barrel, and a discharge plate. The turntable is rotatably installed at the bottom of the inner side of the cleaning barrel and is connected to a motor drive. The filter barrel is detachably installed on the turntable. The side wall of the filter barrel is provided with several filter holes spaced apart. The discharge plate is slidably fitted to the inner side of the filter barrel. A lifting rod is installed on the discharge plate and is detachably connected to the filter barrel.
[0009] A water replenishment mechanism is installed on the machine base and is used to replenish water in the cleaning tank;
[0010] A drainage structure is installed on the cleaning tub and is used to drain the water inside the cleaning tub.
[0011] The principle and effects of this technical solution:
[0012] 1. By placing vegetables in the filter bucket and driving a turntable to rotate via a motor, the turntable rotates the filter bucket, creating a speed difference between the filter bucket and the water flow in the washing bucket. This speed difference allows the vegetables to be washed and cleaned. Furthermore, the vegetables rotating synchronously with the filter bucket prevents damage to their surface from the washing mechanism and prevents them from getting stuck, resulting in better cleaning.
[0013] 2. With the unloading plate, after the vegetables in the filter bucket are washed, the unloading plate can be raised by pulling the lifting rod, thereby raising the vegetables in the washing bucket for easy removal. With the water replenishment mechanism and drainage structure, the water in the washing bucket can be quickly replaced. The filter holes allow water to flow in and out of the filter bucket.
[0014] The present invention is further configured to include multiple pressurizing units distributed at intervals along the circumference of the filter barrel. Each pressurizing unit includes a pressurizing plate and two mounting plates. The two mounting plates are fixed to the outer wall of the filter barrel in an up-down arrangement. One end of the pressurizing plate is rotatably mounted in the two mounting plates. A limiting groove is provided on the outer wall of the filter barrel. Two pressurizing holes are provided on the inner wall of the filter barrel that are symmetrical about the limiting groove. The projection of the pressurizing holes on the horizontal plane is arc-shaped. The pressurizing holes are connected to the limiting groove. The other end of the pressurizing plate slides against the limiting groove.
[0015] The principle and effect of this technical solution are as follows: By rotatably connecting one end of the pressure plate to the mounting plate and sliding the other end in the limiting groove, the mounting plate can drive the pressure plate to rotate synchronously relative to the filter barrel when the filter barrel rotates. The resistance of the water flow to the pressure plate will drive the pressure plate to rotate to the side of the limiting groove opposite to the direction of rotation. At this time, there is an angle between the pressure plate and the filter barrel. Part of the thrust of the pressure plate on the water flow is converted into the tangential component of the filter barrel to drive the water flow to rotate and accelerate. The other part is converted into the radial component, so that the water flow can make centripetal circular motion. That is, under the action of the radial component and the external water flow resistance, the water flow pushed by the pressure plate can accelerate along the pressure plate-limiting groove-pressure hole into the interior of the filter barrel to rinse and wash the vegetables, thereby improving the cleaning effect. Moreover, the two symmetrically arranged pressure holes can play a pressure-boosting effect when the filter barrel rotates forward or backward.
[0016] The present invention is further configured such that: multiple vertical rods are distributed circumferentially on the turntable, and lugs are slidably fitted on the vertical rods. The lugs are fixed to the outer wall of the filter bucket. A limit ring is detachably installed on the top of the cleaning bucket, and the filter bucket abuts against the turntable.
[0017] The principle and effect of this technical solution: The setting of the vertical rod and the support lugs makes the filter barrel easy to disassemble and assemble relative to the turntable, and has strong transmission stability. In addition, the setting of the limit ring can limit the position of the support lugs, preventing the support lugs from jumping off the vertical rod during rotation. The setting of the limit ring can also block the rotating water flow and prevent water splashing.
[0018] The present invention is further configured such that: a ball bearing is installed on the uppermost lug, a groove is provided on the bottom surface of the limiting ring, the projection of the groove on the horizontal plane is circular, the end of the vertical rod is slidably fitted in the groove, and the ball bearing abuts against the bottom surface of the limiting ring.
[0019] The principle and effect of this technical solution: By setting up the ball bearings, the limiting ring's limiting effect on the support lugs can be enhanced, preventing the support lugs and filter barrel from jumping during rotation, and reducing rolling friction and thus frictional resistance.
[0020] The present invention is further configured such that: a limiting bolt is inserted into the outer wall of the cleaning tub, and the end of the limiting bolt extends into the limiting ring.
[0021] The principle and effect of this technical solution: The position of the limiting ring is limited by the limiting bolt, so that the limiting ring can be fixed on the cleaning tank and is easy to disassemble and assemble.
[0022] The present invention is further configured such that: a side plate is fixed on the lifting rod, a limit rod is fixed on the top surface of the filter bucket, the side plate and the limit rod are slidably fitted together, and a limit nut is threaded onto the limit rod.
[0023] The principle and effect of this technical solution: By fitting the wiping plate and the limiting rod together, the unloading plate can also rotate synchronously with the filter barrel, and the limiting nut limits the side plate, so that the limiting rod can maintain a stable position relative to the filter barrel.
[0024] The present invention is further configured such that: the drainage structure includes a drain pipe, an overflow pipe and a return box, the drain pipe and the overflow pipe are respectively fixed on the side wall of the cleaning tank, and the overflow pipe is located above the drain pipe. The overflow pipe and the drain pipe are respectively connected to the return box, and the water replenishment mechanism is connected to the return box.
[0025] The principle and effect of this technical solution: Drainage is achieved through the drain pipe, and the water level is controlled by the overflow pipe, so that the water in the cleaning tank can be reasonably controlled. Furthermore, the water replenishment mechanism is connected to the return tank, which allows the water replenishment mechanism to reuse the water in the return tank, thereby improving the water utilization rate.

[0040] Example:
[0041] As attached Figure 1-6As shown, this utility model discloses a vegetable washing and mud removal device, including a machine base 110, a washing mechanism, a water replenishment mechanism 310, and a drainage structure. A washing tank 120 is installed on the top of the machine base 110, and a motor 130 is installed at the bottom of the machine base 110. The washing mechanism includes a turntable 210, a filter tank 220, and a discharge plate 230. The turntable 210 is rotatably installed on the bottom of the inner side of the washing tank 120, and the turntable 210 is connected to the motor 130 through a transmission connection. Specifically, the movable end of the motor 130 can be equipped with a rotating shaft through a coupling. The rotating shaft passes through the machine base 110 and the washing tank 120 and is fixed to the turntable 210, and waterproof measures are taken. Commonly used waterproof rings or sealing rings are used. The turntable 210 has circumferentially spaced... Multiple vertical rods 250 are provided, and lugs 260 are slidably fitted on the vertical rods 250. The lugs 260 are provided in at least two layers, one above the other. The lugs 260 are fixed to the outer wall of the filter barrel 220. A limiting ring 270 is detachably installed on the top of the cleaning barrel 120. The filter barrel 220 abuts against the turntable 210. A ball bearing 261 is installed on the uppermost lug 260. A groove 271 is opened on the bottom surface of the limiting ring 270. The projection of the groove 271 on the horizontal plane is circular. The end of the vertical rod 250 is slidably fitted in the groove 271. The ball bearing 261 abuts against the bottom surface of the limiting ring 270. A limiting bolt 280 is inserted into the outer wall of the cleaning barrel 120. The end of the limiting bolt 280 extends into the limiting ring 270.
[0042] The side wall of the filter barrel 220 is provided with several filter holes at intervals. The filter holes are not shown in the figure. They are ordinary water passage holes. The discharge plate 230 is slidably fitted inside the filter barrel 220. A lifting rod 240 is installed on the discharge plate 230. A side plate 241 is fixed on the lifting rod 240. A limit rod 223 is fixed on the top surface of the filter barrel 220. The side plate 241 and the limit rod 223 are slidably fitted together. A limit nut 224 is threaded onto the limit rod 223.
[0043] It also includes multiple pressurization units spaced apart circumferentially along the filter barrel 220. Each pressurization unit includes a pressurization plate 410 and two mounting plates 420. The two mounting plates 420 are vertically distributed and fixed to the outer wall of the filter barrel 220. One end of the pressurization plate 410 is rotatably mounted within the two mounting plates 420. A limiting groove 221 is formed on the outer wall of the filter barrel 220, and two pressurization holes 222 symmetrically positioned about the limiting groove 221 are formed on the inner wall of the filter barrel 220, as detailed below. Figure 6As shown, the projection of the pressure boosting hole 222 on the horizontal plane is arc-shaped. The pressure boosting hole 222 is connected to the limiting groove 221, and the other end of the pressure boosting plate 410 slides against the limiting groove 221. The positions of the limiting groove 221 and the support ear 260 are arranged alternately, and the positions of the limiting groove 221 and the pressure boosting hole 222 are staggered from the positions of the filter holes. When rotating, the pushing force of the pressure plate 410 on the water flow is not parallel (non-tangential) to the direction of water flow rotation, but biased towards the direction of the filter barrel 220. As a result, the radial component of the pushing force can drive the pushed water flow closer to the center, that is, it enters the limiting groove 221 and the pressure hole 222 through the pushing of the pressure plate 410. The speed is increased by the pushing force, which in turn flushes the inside of the cleaning barrel 120, improving the flushing effect of the water flow. The pressure hole 222, which is set relatively, can drive the water flow into the filter barrel 220 at high speed when the cleaning barrel 120 rotates forward and reverse. The motor 130 can be a reciprocating motor 130, that is, a motor 130 that can realize periodic forward and reverse rotation.
[0044] The drainage structure includes a drain pipe 510, an overflow pipe 520, and a return box 530. The drain pipe 510 and the overflow pipe 520 are respectively fixed to the side wall of the cleaning tank 120, and the overflow pipe 520 is located above the drain pipe 510. The overflow pipe 520 and the drain pipe 510 are respectively connected to the return box 530. The water replenishment mechanism 310 is connected to the return box 530. The drain pipe 510 has a control valve. The water replenishment mechanism 310 is installed on the machine base 110 and is used to replenish water in the cleaning tank 120. Specifically, the water replenishment mechanism 310 may have a water pump and a water supply pipe. The water pump delivers water from the return box 530 or the outside through the water supply pipe to the cleaning tank. The side wall of the cleaning tank may be equipped with nozzles to spray water out. The specific form is not limited, as long as it can achieve water replenishment. High-pressure jetting into the cleaning tank 120 is more effective and can achieve effects such as bubbles.
[0045] The principle it is based on is the relationship between the velocity and centripetal force of an object making centripetal circular motion, F>mv*v / r. Due to the periodic rotation of motor 130, the water flow rotates at a slower speed, and the radial component of the driving force F provides the centripetal force. In addition, the water flow on the outer periphery can also interfere with the outward movement of the water flow, thereby enabling the water flow to move towards the filter bucket 220.
[0046] In this device, the parts not mentioned are the same as or can be implemented using existing technology; the insert and sliding insert are that the mating body has a hole, the cross section of the shaft or rod matches the hole, and the shaft or rod can slide relative to the hole; the threaded insert is that the hole is a threaded hole, the shaft or rod has a thread, and the shaft or rod is connected to the mating body by screwing; the detachable installation can be by bolt thread connection or bolt nut connection, etc., depending on what can be actually achieved.
