Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit processing technology, and in particular to a multifunctional cleaning device for fruit processing. Background Technology
[0002] Fruits can be eaten directly or processed into canned fruits, dried fruits, and other convenience foods. When growing fruits, pesticides need to be sprayed to prevent and control fruit diseases and pests. After harvesting, the surface of the fruit will be covered with dust and other impurities. Therefore, the surface of the fruit needs to be cleaned before processing.
[0003] Existing fruit processing cleaning devices often rely on a single cleaning method, such as simple spraying or rolling friction, which is insufficient to thoroughly remove dirt, pesticide residues, microorganisms, and other impurities from the fruit surface. This results in uneven cleaning and incomplete cleaning in some areas, negatively impacting user experience. To address these shortcomings, we propose a multi-functional cleaning device for fruit processing. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a multifunctional cleaning device for fruit processing, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0020] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0021] Example 1, as Figures 1-3 As shown, a multifunctional cleaning device for fruit processing includes a water collection tank 1. One set of transmission rods 6 has a second transmission sprocket 7 and a first transmission sprocket 4 welded to one end. Two other sets of transmission rods 6 have another set of second transmission sprockets 7 and first transmission sprockets 4 respectively mounted on one end. The two sets of first transmission sprockets 4 are connected by a first transmission chain 5, and the two sets of second transmission sprockets 7 are connected by a second transmission chain 12. One end of the second transmission sprocket 7 is connected to a motor 13, which serves as the power source. After starting, the motor drives the three sets of transmission rods 6 to rotate synchronously via chain transmission.
[0022] Example 2, as Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 As shown, a multi-functional cleaning device for fruit processing includes a water collection tank 1 with a scrubbing box 9 securely mounted on top. A conveyor frame 2 is installed in front of the scrubbing box 9. Multiple sets of buffer elastic bands 18 are evenly arranged between the scrubbing box 9 and the guide frame 10. The buffer elastic bands 18 are made of highly elastic and wear-resistant materials, such as high-quality rubber, which effectively buffer the impact force on the fruit during conveying, preventing damage from collisions and ensuring the fruit remains in good condition when entering the scrubbing box 9. The guide frame 10 is installed on the top of the water collection tank 1. The guide frame 10 not only guides the cleaned fruit into the scrubbing box 9, but also has two sets of fixing frames 14 fixed at its top. The lower ends of the fixing frames 14 are connected to connecting pipes 16, with multiple sets of nozzles 17 evenly distributed at the lower end of the connecting pipes 16. The upper end of the connecting pipes 16 is connected to a water pipe 15, and a water pump 8 is installed at the lower end of the water pipes 15. The top of the water collection tank 1 has a water inlet 3, through which an external water source enters the device.
[0023] It should be noted that this utility model is a multifunctional cleaning device for fruit processing. When using this device, first connect the external water source to the water inlet 3 to ensure a stable water supply. Close the drain valve at the bottom of the water collection tank 1 to prevent wastewater leakage during the cleaning process. When the water pump 8 is turned on, water enters the water collection tank 1 from the water inlet 3, flows through the water pipe 15 and the connecting pipe 16, and is sprayed out from the nozzle 17 to spray and wash the fruit multiple times. The user can place the guide rack 10 on the fruit conveyor belt. The fruit rotates and rolls from top to bottom through the guide rack 10, and after being buffered by the buffer elastic belt 18, it enters the washing box 9. Then, the motor 13 is started, and the motor 13 drives the second transmission sprocket 7 to rotate. The second transmission sprocket 7 drives the second transmission sprocket 7 on another set of transmission rods 6 to rotate synchronously through the second transmission chain 12. At the same time, the first transmission sprocket 4 also drives the corresponding transmission rod 6 to rotate through the first transmission chain 5, so that the three sets of transmission rods 6 rotate synchronously, driving the soft bristle cleaning roller 11 to wash the fruit. The sprayed water enters the washing box 9 from the guide rack 10, and then flows into the water collection tank 1 through the permeable inclined plate 19. The washed fruit slides down the permeable inclined plate 19 and falls onto the conveyor rack 2, heading to the next processing point.
[0024] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
