Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable processing technology, and in particular to a vegetable processing and cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] In the vegetable processing industry, washing is a crucial pre-treatment step that directly affects product quality and safety. Currently, common vegetable washing devices on the market mainly include soaking, spraying, and drum types.
[0003] Immersion cleaning devices rely on static soaking and simple agitation, which is insufficient to effectively remove stubborn stains and poses a risk of secondary contamination. While spray-type equipment can achieve water flow impact, the uneven water distribution can easily create blind spots. Drum-type washing machines clean through mechanical tumbling, but vegetables are easily damaged by compression and collision within the drum, and it is impossible to ensure that each vegetable is subjected to uniform force during the washing process. In addition, existing cleaning equipment generally suffers from complex structures, high energy consumption, and low automation, making it difficult to meet the demands of modern vegetable processing for efficient, energy-saving, and precise cleaning. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a vegetable processing and cleaning device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A vegetable processing and cleaning device includes a water tank and a lifting mesh frame. A lifting plate is provided above the water tank, and a first bolt is provided on the lifting plate. A fixed frame is provided below the lifting plate via a lifting mechanism. A reciprocating screw is rotatably provided inside the fixed frame. A drive motor connected to the reciprocating screw is provided on the fixed frame. A lifting frame is threaded onto the reciprocating screw via a limiting mechanism. The lifting frame is connected to the lifting mesh frame via a connecting mechanism. A fixed rod is fixedly provided on the lifting mesh frame. The fixed rod is connected to the reciprocating screw via a rotating mechanism. Multiple partition nets are fixed between the lifting mesh frame and the fixed rod. Multiple cover plates are installed on the lifting mesh frame via a second bolt.
[0007] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder fixedly mounted on the hoisting plate, and a connecting frame is fixedly provided at the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder, and the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the fixed frame.
[0008] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting rod fixedly disposed within a fixed frame, the limiting rod slidingly penetrating the lifting frame.
[0009] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a transmission rod rotatably mounted on a fixed frame and connected to a reciprocating lead screw, and the fixed rod is provided with a transmission groove corresponding to the transmission rod.
[0010] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating ring fixedly connected to the lifting frame, and the outer wall of the lifting frame is provided with a rotating groove corresponding to the rotating ring.
[0011] Preferably, the vertical cross-sectional view of the rotating groove and the rotating ring is T-shaped, and the cross-sectional view of the transmission rod and the transmission groove is hexagonal.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. The drive motor drives the reciprocating screw to rotate, so that the lifting mesh frame can move up and down and rotate in the water tank. This allows the vegetables to come into contact with the water from multiple angles and directions, breaking the blind spots in cleaning, enhancing mechanical friction, and effectively removing stubborn stains such as dirt and pesticide residues from the surface of the vegetables, resulting in a more thorough cleaning.
[0014] 2. The mesh separates the vegetables, and the position of each vegetable changes continuously in the compound movement mode, avoiding uneven washing caused by accumulation or fixed position, ensuring that the washing effect of the same batch of vegetables is consistent, and meeting the washing needs of vegetables of different shapes.
[0015] 3. The lifting mechanism uses a hydraulic cylinder to achieve lifting, and the limit mechanism prevents the lifting frame from rotating with the lead screw. The rotating mechanism drives the mesh frame to rotate through the cooperation of the transmission rod and the fixed rod. All mechanisms work together and use the same motor to achieve compound motion. No additional power source is required, which simplifies the structure, reduces costs, and shortens the cleaning cycle with the same energy consumption.
[0016] 4. Convenient and efficient operation: The equipment has a clear operation process. The lifting is controlled by a hydraulic cylinder, and the cleaning movement is controlled by a drive motor. After cleaning, it can be quickly reset, making it easy to remove vegetables and realize rapid cycle operation, thus improving production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0024] Reference Figure 1-5 A vegetable processing and cleaning device includes a water tank 1 and a lifting frame 7. A hoisting plate 2 is provided above the water tank 1, and a first bolt is provided on the hoisting plate 2. The hoisting plate 2 is hoisted and installed on the wall and ceiling of the cleaning workshop by means of the first bolt.
[0025] A fixed frame 5 is provided below the lifting plate 2 via a lifting mechanism. A reciprocating screw 12 is rotatably provided inside the fixed frame 5. A drive motor 13 connected to the reciprocating screw 12 is provided on the fixed frame 5. The reciprocating screw 12 is mounted on the fixed frame 5 via a bearing seat. The output shaft of the drive motor 13 is connected to the reciprocating screw 12 via a coupling.
[0026] A lifting frame 6 is threadedly fitted onto the reciprocating lead screw 12 via a limiting mechanism. This lifting frame 6 is equivalent to an irregularly shaped lead screw sleeve.
[0027] The lifting frame 6 is connected to the lifting net frame 7 through a connecting mechanism. A fixed rod 9 is fixedly installed on the lifting net frame 7. The fixed rod 9 is connected to the reciprocating screw 12 through a rotating mechanism. Multiple partition nets 17 are fixedly installed between the lifting net frame 7 and the fixed rod 9. Multiple cover plates 8 are installed on the lifting net frame 7 through a second bolt.
[0028] The lifting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder 3 fixedly mounted on the hoisting plate 2. A connecting frame 4 is fixedly provided at the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 3, and the connecting frame 4 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 5. The hydraulic cylinder 3 enables the lifting operation of components such as the fixed frame 5 and the lifting net frame 7, allowing them to detach from the water tank 1 or enter the water tank 1 and be immersed in water.
[0029] The limiting mechanism includes a limiting rod 14 fixedly installed within the fixed frame 5, which slides through the lifting frame 6. The limiting rod 14 limits the lifting frame 6, preventing it from rotating along with the reciprocating screw 12.
[0030] The rotating mechanism includes a transmission rod 10 rotatably mounted on the fixed frame 5 and connected to the reciprocating lead screw 12. The fixed rod 9 has a transmission groove 11 corresponding to the transmission rod 10. The rotating mechanism also includes a rotating ring 16 fixedly connected to the lifting frame 6. The outer wall of the lifting frame 7 has a rotating groove 15 corresponding to the rotating ring 16. The vertical cross-sectional views of both the rotating groove 15 and the rotating ring 16 are horizontally T-shaped, while the cross-sectional views of both the transmission rod 10 and the transmission groove 11 are regular hexagonal. The T-shaped design prevents the rotating ring 16 from moving within the rotating groove 15, and the regular hexagonal design allows the transmission rod 10 to rotate, which, in conjunction with the fixed rod 9, drives the lifting frame 7 to rotate.
[0031] Components not specifically described in this utility model are all standard parts and can be purchased from the market. The specific connection methods for each component all employ mature methods from the prior art, and will not be detailed here. Content not described in detail in this specification belongs to prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0032] When this utility model is in use, in the initial state, the lifting net frame 7 is at a high position. Vegetables are placed in the lifting net frame 7, and multiple vegetables are separated by the partition net 17. Then, the cover plate 8 is installed with the help of the second bolt. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 3 is started, which finally makes the lifting net frame 7 descend into the water tank 1 and approach the bottom wall of the water tank 1. At this time, the lifting frame 6 is in the position of the reciprocating screw 12 near the transmission rod 10.
[0033] Then the drive motor 13 starts and drives the reciprocating screw 12 to rotate. When the reciprocating screw 12 rotates, the lifting frame 6 drives the lifting mesh frame 7 to move up and down in the water in the water tank 1 and always stay in the water in the water tank 1. At the same time, the reciprocating screw 12 drives the transmission rod 10 to rotate. The transmission rod 10, together with the fixed rod 9, drives the lifting mesh frame 7 to rotate for cleaning.
[0034] After cleaning is completed, drive motor 13 is turned off, hydraulic cylinder 3 continues to start and drives components such as lifting mesh frame 7 to rise and reset. Finally, the cover plate 8 can be removed to take out the cleaned vegetables for the next round of cleaning.
[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
