Description

A corn cob cleaning device Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of corn food processing technology, specifically, it relates to a corn cob cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Cleaning corn cobs is a crucial step in ensuring product quality during corn food processing.

[0003] The prior art discloses a corn cob washing device (CN220879717U), including a base, a steel wire conveyor belt that is inclined and rotatably connected to one end of the base, a spray washing device located at one end of the steel wire conveyor belt, and a drying device located at the end of the spray washing device away from the steel wire conveyor belt. Multiple baffles are spaced apart on the steel wire conveyor belt. The spray washing device has multiple bristle rollers for conveying raw materials, arranged along the length of the steel wire conveyor belt. The drying device includes a roller conveyor belt rotatably connected to the base. The baffles on the steel wire conveyor belt scoop the corn onto the multiple bristle rollers. The rotation of the multiple bristle rollers causes the corn to be subjected to multiple forces, enabling it to be conveyed along the conveying direction of the multiple bristle rollers. The corn accumulated on the baffles is dispersed, and the corn enters the roller conveyor belt from the bristle rollers. The movement of the corn on the roller conveyor belt is the same as that on the multiple bristle rollers.

[0004] Research revealed that existing technologies have limitations in cleaning the four corners. Because the corn cobs are not evenly placed on the roller conveyor belt, some corn cobs end up at the edges. The spray heads and pipes of the device cannot adapt to the position of the corn cobs, resulting in incomplete cleaning and uneven washing. Furthermore, corn silks and dirt that fall onto the filter screen cannot be cleaned, which may cause the filter screen to become clogged, leading to the accumulation of wastewater that cannot be discharged, thus affecting the corn cob cleaning process.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.

[0029] A corn cob washing device, as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, includes a water storage tank 10, a soaking tank 11 fixedly installed on one side of the water storage tank 10, a roller conveyor belt 13 and a filter plate 14 fixedly installed inside the water storage tank 10, a wire conveyor belt 12 fixedly installed inside the soaking tank 11, a roller motor 18 for controlling the operation of the roller conveyor belt 13 fixedly installed on one side of the water storage tank 10, and a drain valve 1 for discharging wastewater installed on the outside of both the water storage tank 10 and the soaking tank 11. 6. Multiple brush rollers 15 are rotatably mounted on the water storage tank 10; a rinsing assembly is movably mounted above the water storage tank 10. The rinsing assembly includes a bracket 19, positive and negative lead screws 27, a liquid distribution pipe 22, a spray box 28, and a high-pressure nozzle 29. The bracket 19 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the water storage tank 10, the high-pressure nozzle 29 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the spray box 28, the liquid distribution pipe 22 is fixedly mounted on one side of the spray box 28, and different spray boxes 28 are movably mounted at both ends of the positive and negative lead screws 27. The positive and negative lead screw 27 is rotatably mounted within the bracket 19; the cleaning assembly is movably mounted within the water storage tank 10, and includes a lead screw 30, a folding sleeve 31, a moving block 32, a scraper 33, a water box 34, and rotating spray arms 35. Different moving blocks 32 are fixedly mounted at both ends of the water box 34, and two rotating spray arms 35 are rotatably mounted on the top surface of the water box 34. The lead screw 30 is rotatably mounted within the water storage tank 10, and the folding sleeve 31 is fixedly mounted on one of the moving blocks 32. The scraper 33 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the water box 34, and the scraper 33 is threadedly matched with the screw 30; as shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5, the other side of the soaking pool 11 is fixedly provided with an inlet pipe 24 for water inlet, and the side of the water storage tank 10 is fixedly provided with a water pump 21. The water pump 21 is connected to a telescopic hose 20, which is connected to a distribution pipe 22. There are three distribution pipes 22, two of which are connected to two spray boxes 28 respectively, and the other distribution pipe 22 is connected to the water box 34.

[0030] Specifically, this device circulates water in the soaking tank 11 and the water storage tank 10. The water pump 21 delivers water to the distribution pipe 22, which then delivers clean water to different telescopic hoses 20. The clean water is then delivered to the corresponding spray box 28 and water box 34 through the different telescopic hoses 20. The corn cobs to be cleaned are placed in the soaking tank 11 for soaking. When the first motor drives the wire conveyor belt 12 to move towards the rinsing component, the corn cobs on the wire conveyor belt 12 are transported upward to the top of the wire conveyor belt 12. The roller conveyor motor 18 drives the roller conveyor belt 13 to transport the corn cobs. While the corn cobs are being brushed by the bristle roller 15, the rinsing component rinses the corn cobs from above, and the cleaning component washes the corn cobs from below. The rinsed corn cobs are then conveyed out through the roller conveyor belt 13.

[0031] It is worth noting that the rotation of the bristle roller 15 is controlled by the corresponding rotating wheel and the connecting belt. The rotation of the rotating wheel requires the drive of the second motor. The water storage tank 10, soaking pool 11, steel wire conveyor belt 12, roller conveyor belt 13, bristle roller 15, first motor, second motor, rotating wheel and connecting belt used in this device are all disclosed in detail in the prior art of a corn cob washing device (CN220879717U), and will not be repeated here.

[0032] As shown in Figure 4, the bracket 19 has an arched structure. A groove 25 is provided on the top surface of the bracket 19. The positive and negative lead screws 27 are rotatably disposed in the groove 25. A drive motor 26 is fixedly disposed on one side of the bracket 19. The output end of the drive motor 26 passes through the bracket 19 and is connected to one end of the positive and negative lead screws 27. As shown in Figure 4, a square protrusion is provided on the top of the spray box 28. The square protrusion is threadedly engaged with the positive and negative lead screws 27. The square protrusion slides in the groove 25. Multiple high-pressure nozzles 29 are arranged in an array on the bottom surface of the spray box 28. The spray box 28 is connected to the high-pressure nozzles 29.

[0033] The working principle is as follows: by setting up the rinsing component, the drive motor 26 drives the positive and negative lead screws 27 to rotate. The positive and negative lead screws 27 drive the square protrusions at both ends to move in the slide groove 25. At this time, the corresponding spray boxes 28 and high-pressure nozzles 29 at both ends move inward or outward at the same time, so that the spray position keeps changing. The water pump 21 provides clean water to the telescopic hose 20 through the liquid distribution pipe 22. At this time, in conjunction with the cleaning component, the corn cob is sprayed with high pressure from both above and below, which not only increases the cleaning range but also further improves the cleaning effect.

[0034] As shown in Figures 3 and 5, a sliding rod is fixedly installed inside the water storage tank 10, and the sliding rod is symmetrically arranged with the lead screw 30. A moving motor 23 is fixedly installed on the outside of the water storage tank 10, and the output end of the moving motor 23 passes through the water storage tank 10 and is connected to one end of the lead screw 30. As shown in Figures 2 and 5, a drain port 17 is opened on one side of the water storage tank 10. The drain port 17 is located above the drain valve 16. The scraper 33 is set corresponding to the drain port 17 and slides on the filter plate 14. As shown in Figure 5, a round hole and a threaded hole are respectively opened in the two moving blocks 32. The threaded hole is threadedly engaged with the lead screw 30, and the round hole is slidably engaged with the sliding rod. A folded tube sleeve 31 is fixedly installed between the two sides of one of the moving blocks 32 and the inner walls of the two sides of the water storage tank 10. The folded tube sleeve 31 is sleeved on the lead screw 30.

[0035] The working principle is as follows: by setting up the cleaning components, the moving motor 23 drives the lead screw 30 to rotate, and the lead screw 30 drives the connected moving block 32 with a threaded hole to move. At this time, the moving block 32 with a round hole at the other end moves on the slide rod. The two moving blocks 32 drive the water box 34 to move and also drive the scraper 33 to move. At this time, the two rotating spray arms 35 rotate and spray under the drive of water pressure to wash the corn cobs between the roller conveyor belt 13 and the brush roller 15. The scraper 33 scrapes off the corn silk and other dirt that fall on the filter plate 14 and pushes the dirt out of the drain port 17, thereby cleaning the filter plate 14 and avoiding the filter screen from clogging. This solves the problem of water accumulation that cannot be discharged and affects the cleaning of corn cobs.
