Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vegetable washing devices, and more specifically, to a fresh vegetable washing device. Background Technology
[0002] Vegetables are a general term for the roots, stems, leaves, flowers, or fruits of edible plants. There are many varieties, including leafy vegetables, root vegetables, and melons and fruits. These fresh vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, and are an important part of a healthy diet. Some vegetables also contain antioxidants, which help regulate bodily functions. As the foundation of a balanced diet, fresh vegetables can be paired with grains, proteins, and other foods to meet the various nutritional needs of different groups of people.
[0003] When cleaning large quantities of fresh vegetables, operators often use vegetable washing equipment to remove dirt and potential pesticide residues from the surface of the vegetables, thus ensuring their safety for consumption. However, while existing vegetable washing equipment has basic washing functions, it generally cleans vegetables by water jets. This method is not only inefficient but also often takes a long time to ensure the cleaning effect. Therefore, it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a fresh vegetable washing device with the advantage of high vegetable washing efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fresh vegetable washing device, comprising a washing tank, a first disc movably connected to the top of the inner surface of the washing tank, a second disc movably sleeved on the inner surface of the first disc, soft cleaning brushes fixedly connected to the lower surfaces of both the first and second discs, a driven gear fixedly connected to the upper surface of the first disc, a first transmission gear meshing with the outer surface of the driven gear, a first sleeve post movably sleeved on the inner surface of the first transmission gear, and a second sleeve post meshing with the outer surface of the first transmission gear. The transmission gear has a second sleeve post movably sleeved on its inner surface. The top ends of both the first and second sleeve posts are fixedly connected to mounting plates. A first motor is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper surface of the mounting plate. A rotating shaft is fixedly sleeved at the other end of the output shaft of the first motor. The bottom end of the rotating shaft passes through the mounting plate, the driven gear, and the first disc in sequence and extends to the upper surface of the cleaning soft brush and is fixedly connected to the cleaning soft brush. A driving gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft. The outer surface of the driving gear meshes with the outer surface of the second transmission gear.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, mounting columns are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the outer surface of the cleaning pool, and a pneumatic cylinder is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the mounting column. The top of the pneumatic cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting plate.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting ring is movably sleeved on the inner surface of the cleaning tank, and a filter screen is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the connecting ring.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a vertical rod is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the connecting ring, the bottom end of the vertical rod penetrates the cleaning pool and extends to the bottom of the cleaning pool and is fixedly connected to a long plate, and the outer surface of the vertical rod is movably connected to the inner surface of the cleaning pool.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a support column is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the cleaning pool, and the length of the support column is greater than the total length of the vertical rod and the long plate.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second motor is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the cleaning tank, and a rotating shaft is fixedly sleeved on the other end of the output shaft of the second motor. An active rod is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the other end of the active rod is hinged to a driven rod, and the other end of the driven rod is hinged to the front surface of the long plate.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. This utility model, by setting a driven gear, a first transmission gear, a second transmission gear, and a driving gear, allows the rotating shaft, driving gear, and second disc to start rotating when the operator starts the first motor. The rotation of the driving gear drives the second transmission gear, which in turn drives the first transmission gear, which in turn drives the driven gear. This causes the driven gear and the first disc to rotate in the opposite direction to the second disc. At this time, the bidirectional rotation of the cleaning brush can simulate the cleaning of vegetables by hand, greatly improving the cleaning speed and effect of the overall cleaning pool.
[0014] 2. This utility model, by setting up a connecting ring, a vertical rod, a long plate, an active rod, and a driven rod, allows the rotating shaft and the active rod to start rotating when the operator starts the No. 2 motor. At this time, the other end of the active rod will drive the driven rod, which will also start rotating. The other end of the driven rod will drive the long plate, which will cause the long plate, the vertical rod, and the connecting ring to move upward as a whole. This allows some vegetables with a density greater than water to come into contact with the cleaning brush and be effectively cleaned. Attached Figure Description

[0021] 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.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides a fresh vegetable washing device, including a washing tank 1. A first disc 2 is movably connected to the top of the inner surface of the washing tank 1. A second disc 3 is movably sleeved on the inner surface of the first disc 2. A soft cleaning brush 4 is fixedly connected to the lower surfaces of both the first disc 2 and the second disc 3. A driven gear 5 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the first disc 2. A first transmission gear 6 is meshed with the outer surface of the driven gear 5. A first sleeve post 7 is movably sleeved on the inner surface of the first transmission gear 6. A second transmission gear 8 is meshed with the outer surface of the first transmission gear 6. The inner surface of the device is movably fitted with a second sleeve post 9. The top ends of both the first sleeve post 7 and the second sleeve post 9 are fixedly connected to a mounting plate 10. A first motor 11 is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper surface of the mounting plate 10. The other end of the output shaft of the first motor 11 is fixedly fitted with a rotating shaft 12. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 12 passes through the mounting plate 10, the driven gear 5 and the first disc 2 in sequence and extends to the upper surface of the cleaning soft brush 4 and is fixedly connected to the cleaning soft brush 4. The outer surface of the rotating shaft 12 is fixedly fitted with a driving gear 13. The outer surface of the driving gear 13 meshes with the outer surface of the second transmission gear 8.
[0023] When motor 11 starts, the rotating shaft 12, the driving gear 13 and the second disk 3 will start to rotate as a whole. The rotation of the driving gear 13 causes the second transmission gear 8 and the first transmission gear 6 to start to rotate. Finally, the first transmission gear 6 will drive the driven gear 5, thereby causing the driven gear 5 and the first disk 2 to start to rotate in the opposite direction to the second disk 3 as a whole.
[0024] Among them, the left and right sides of the outer surface of the cleaning pool 1 are fixedly connected to the mounting columns 14, and the inner surface of the mounting columns 14 is fixedly installed with the pneumatic cylinder 15. The top of the pneumatic cylinder 15 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting plate 10.
[0025] Activating the pneumatic cylinder 15 will cause the mounting plate 10 to move up and down as a whole.
[0026] The inner surface of the cleaning tank 1 is movably fitted with a connecting ring 16, and a filter screen 17 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the connecting ring 16.
[0027] The design of the connecting ring 16 allows the connecting ring 16 to move up and down along the inner surface of the cleaning tank 1.
[0028] The lower surface of the connecting ring 16 is fixedly connected to a vertical rod 19. The bottom end of the vertical rod 19 passes through the cleaning tank 1 and extends to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 and is fixedly connected to a long plate 20. The outer surface of the vertical rod 19 and the inner surface of the cleaning tank 1 are movably connected.
[0029] The design of the long plate 20 and the vertical rod 19 restricts the overall direction and range of movement of the connecting ring 16.
[0030] Among them, a support column 18 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the cleaning pool 1, and the length of the support column 18 is greater than the total length of the vertical rod 19 and the long plate 20.
[0031] The length design of the support column 18 ensures that the long plate 20 does not touch the ground.
[0032] Among them, a second motor 21 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the cleaning tank 1, and a rotating shaft 22 is fixedly sleeved on the other end of the output shaft of the second motor 21. An active rod 23 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 22.
[0033] When motor 21 is started, the rotating shaft 22 and the drive rod 23 will begin to rotate.
[0034] Among them, the other end of the driving rod 23 is hinged to the driven rod 24, and the other end of the driven rod 24 is hinged to the front surface of the long plate 20.
[0035] The driven rod 24 will start to rotate as the driving rod 23 rotates, and at the same time, the other end of the driven rod 24 will drive the long plate 20, thereby causing the long plate 20 to move upward as a whole.
[0036] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0037] First, the operator pours water and vegetables into the washing tank 1. If the vegetables sink directly to the bottom, the operator needs to start the second motor 21. The operation of the second motor 21 will cause the rotating shaft 22 and the driving rod 23 to rotate. The driven rod 24 will start to rotate under the drive of the driving rod 23. At the same time, the other end of the driven rod 24 will drive the long plate 20, thereby causing the long plate 20 to move upward as a whole, thus making the vegetables lifted by the filter screen 17.
[0038] Then, the operator starts the pneumatic cylinder 15 and the first motor 11. The operation of the pneumatic cylinder 15 causes the mounting plate 10 to move downwards, eventually making the upper surface of the first disc 2 flush with the upper surface of the washing pool 1. The operation of the first motor 11 causes the rotating shaft 12, the drive gear 13, and the second disc 3 to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 13 causes the second transmission gear 8 and the first transmission gear 6 to rotate. The driven gear 5 and the first disc 2 will also start to rotate under the drive of the first transmission gear 6. At this time, the cleaning soft brushes 4 installed on the lower surfaces of the first disc 2 and the second disc 3 will rotate in clockwise and counterclockwise directions respectively. This allows the vegetables between the filter screen 17 and the first disc 2 to be thoroughly cleaned by the cleaning soft brushes 4, thus completing the cleaning operation of a large batch of vegetables.
