[0002] Seed cleaning equipment is a device used to remove dirt, impurities, and pathogens from the surface of seeds, aiming to improve seed quality and germination rate. Such equipment typically includes two main functions: cleaning and disinfection, to ensure that seeds reach optimal sanitary condition before planting.

[0003] Chinese patent CN220191387U discloses a seed cleaning device, comprising a cleaning tank, a connecting assembly, and a cleaning frame. The cleaning tank has a drain outlet on its bottom outer wall. The cleaning frame is installed in the cleaning tank via the connecting assembly. Multiple support columns are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning tank. A motor is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the cleaning tank, and the motor drives the cleaning frame to rotate via the connecting assembly. A limit component is installed on the cleaning frame. In this invention, by providing a cleaning frame, seeds to be cleaned are placed in the cleaning frame, liquid is added to the cleaning tank, and the motor is started. The motor drives the cleaning frame to rotate via the connecting assembly, thereby achieving seed cleaning. This eliminates the need for manual cleaning, resulting in high efficiency and preventing harm to cleaning personnel.

[0004] The aforementioned equipment has the effect of automating seed cleaning, but most of the equipment uses the method of soaking seeds in water for cleaning, which can lead to over-soaking of seeds and a decrease in germination rate. In addition, the existing devices cannot recycle the cleaning water during cleaning, resulting in a large waste of water resources. Therefore, there is a need to provide a seed cleaning device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a seed cleaning device to solve the problems of excessive seed soaking and water waste in existing equipment.

A conduit is fixedly installed on one side of the first water tank, and a second water pump is fixedly installed at one end of the conduit. A second spray pipe is fixedly installed on the output end of the second water pump.

[0010] Preferably, the first water tank is located below the second water tank, and the first water tank and the second water tank are located directly below the cleaning tube and the drain tube, respectively.

[0011] Preferably, the second nozzle is embedded in the drain tube, and both the first and second nozzles have a plurality of spray holes arranged in parallel.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1) This seed cleaning equipment uses a cleaning cylinder installed on one side of the draining cylinder and a threaded plate installed inside both the draining and cleaning cylinders. When the drive motor rotates the cleaning cylinder, the seeds are transferred from the draining cylinder to the cleaning cylinder by the threaded plate and discharged from the cleaning cylinder. During the seed transfer process, the first water pump sprays water onto the seeds through the first spray pipe to achieve the effect of cleaning the seeds. Adding medicine to the medicine tube as needed can also achieve the effect of disinfecting the seeds. The use of a flow-type cleaning method improves the seed cleaning effect.

[0014] 2) This seed cleaning equipment uses a first and second water tank installed below the cleaning and draining cylinders. The water flowing out of the cleaning and draining cylinders is filtered by a filter screen. The equipment adopts a distributed cleaning method, and the wastewater is filtered before the seeds are initially cleaned, which greatly increases the recycling of water resources. The seeds delivered to the cleaning cylinder are cleaned with clean water and detergent to ensure the cleanliness of the seeds. The wastewater from multiple uses can be discharged from the first water tank. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Referring to Figures 3 and 4, it is further seen that a trapezoidal tube is fixedly installed on one side of both the cleaning cylinder 401 and the draining cylinder 2, and several small holes are opened in the middle of both the cleaning cylinder 401 and the draining cylinder 2. The first spray pipe 407 is embedded in the inside of the cleaning cylinder 401, and the thread direction of the threaded plate 405 inside the draining cylinder 2 and the cleaning cylinder 401 is the same.

[0025] Specifically, a cleaning cylinder 401 is installed on one side of the drain cylinder 2, and a threaded plate 405 is installed inside the drain cylinder 2 and the cleaning cylinder 401. When the drive motor 403 is controlled to rotate the cleaning cylinder 401, the seeds will be transferred from the drain cylinder 2 to the cleaning cylinder 401 under the action of the threaded plate 405 and discharged from the cleaning cylinder 401. A hopper 3 is installed in the drain cylinder 2, and the filter basin 409 on the hopper 3 can perform preliminary screening of the seeds when feeding, so as to prevent impurities from entering the drain cylinder 2 and affecting the cleaning effect. During the seed transfer process, the first water pump 406 sprays water on the seeds through the first spray pipe 407 to achieve the effect of cleaning the seeds. The use of a flow cleaning method improves the seed cleaning effect.

The water draining out of the draining cylinder 2 will be filtered by two layers of filter screen 504, and the filtered water is drawn out by the second water pump 506 and sprayed into the draining cylinder 2 through the second spray pipe 507. The equipment adopts a distributed cleaning method, and the wastewater is filtered to perform preliminary cleaning of the seeds, which greatly increases the recycling of water resources. The wastewater that has been used multiple times can be overflowed from the first water tank 501.

[0030] In actual operation, a cleaning cylinder 401 is installed on one side of the drain cylinder 2, and a threaded plate 405 is installed inside the drain cylinder 2 and the cleaning cylinder 401. When the drive motor 403 is controlled to rotate the cleaning cylinder 401, the seeds will be transferred from the drain cylinder 2 to the cleaning cylinder 401 under the action of the threaded plate 405 and discharged from the cleaning cylinder 401. A hopper 3 is installed in the drain cylinder 2. The filter basin 409 on the hopper 3 can perform preliminary screening of the seeds when feeding, so as to avoid impurities entering the drain cylinder 2 and affecting the cleaning effect. During the seed transfer process, the first water pump 406 sprays water on the seeds through the first spray pipe 407 to achieve the effect of cleaning the seeds. The use of a flow cleaning method improves the seed cleaning effect.

[0031] By installing a first water tank 501 and a second water tank 502 below the cleaning cylinder 401 and the draining cylinder 2, the water flowing out of the cleaning cylinder 401 and the draining cylinder 2 is filtered by the filter screen 504. The water draining out of the draining cylinder 2 will be filtered by two layers of filter screen 504. The filtered water is drawn out by the second water pump 506 and sprayed into the draining cylinder 2 through the second spray pipe 507. The equipment adopts a distributed cleaning method, and the wastewater is filtered to perform preliminary cleaning of the seeds, which greatly increases the recycling of water resources. The wastewater that has been used multiple times can be overflowed from the first water tank 501.
