Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable washing machines, and in particular to a convenient cleaning equipment for canned food production. Background Technology

[0002] Vegetable washing machines are mechanical devices used to clean vegetables, fruits, and other agricultural products. They remove impurities, pesticide residues, and microorganisms through methods such as bubbles, drums, spraying, and ultrasound. They are suitable for food processing, catering supply chains, and other scenarios. In canned food production, these convenient cleaning devices can improve cleaning efficiency by 3-5 times and reduce labor costs through automated continuous operation. They ensure food safety by using thorough cleaning and food-grade materials. Their adjustable structure and modular design allow them to flexibly adapt to diverse products. Energy-saving technology and gentle cleaning reduce energy consumption and losses. At the same time, intelligent monitoring meets industry compliance requirements. They are a key measure to enhance production competitiveness and meet regulatory and consumer demands.

[0003] Existing convenient cleaning equipment for canned food production employs a multi-stage cleaning process. Pre-cleaning removes large particulate impurities, while the main cleaning utilizes technologies such as high-pressure spraying, brush friction, and ultrasonic cavitation for deep cleaning. Fine cleaning ensures cleanliness through counter-current rinsing. Simultaneously, it relies on an intelligent control system with preset parameters and real-time sensor monitoring to achieve automated operation. The mechanical structure adopts a quick-release modular design and a self-cleaning system, facilitating maintenance and preventing residues. Through multi-technology collaboration, intelligent control, and structural innovation, the equipment improves cleaning efficiency and ensures cleanliness while reducing energy consumption, enhancing adaptability, and meeting the needs of flexible production.

[0004] In the practical application of convenient cleaning equipment for canned food production, a key pain point affecting convenience remains: the fixed installation structure of the mounting bracket and spray head at the top makes internal cleaning and maintenance difficult. Currently, most equipment, in pursuit of structural stability, directly welds or bolts the mounting bracket, nozzle assembly, and water pipes of the spray system to the top of the cleaning tank. While this design ensures mechanical strength during high-pressure spraying, it reveals significant flaws in the cleaning process. Firstly, cleaning blind spots easily form under the mounting bracket and in pipe gaps, where residual mud, debris, or detergent can accumulate and breed microorganisms, affecting subsequent cleaning quality. Secondly, the fixed... The structure requires manual operation using a long-handled brush or endoscope to reach the bottom of the chamber. For deep-tank cleaning chambers, operators have difficulty accessing the back of the top pipes, often requiring machine shutdown and disassembly of some components, which can take 2-3 hours. In addition, the spray heads are prone to clogging with impurities after long-term use, and the fixed nozzles need to be unscrewed and cleaned one by one, with each maintenance taking 50-100 minutes, which seriously affects the utilization rate of the equipment. These problems mean that convenient cleaning is limited to material cleaning, and the equipment's own cleaning convenience is greatly reduced. Especially in high-frequency production scenarios, the frequent maintenance needs and production capacity pressure create a prominent contradiction, becoming a bottleneck that restricts the improvement of the overall efficiency of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a convenient cleaning equipment for canned food production, aiming to improve the problem that the fixed frame and spray head are fixed to the top of the cleaning tank during equipment use, which makes internal cleaning inconvenient.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a convenient cleaning canned food production equipment, including a cleaning tank, a conveyor belt inside the cleaning tank, multiple connecting pipes fixedly connected to the top of the cleaning tank, a fixing component on the outer wall of each connecting pipe, multiple ball bearings slidably connected inside each connecting pipe, multiple sliding grooves opened inside each connecting pipe, a transmission pipe slidably connected inside each connecting pipe, a fixing groove opened at the bottom end of each transmission pipe, and a spraying component provided at the top of the transmission pipe;

One end of each spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the sliding sleeve, and the other end of each spring is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing ring.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The spray assembly includes a fixed frame and multiple spray heads. The bottom of the fixed frame is fixedly connected to the top of the transmission pipe, and the top of each spray head is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed frame.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] A water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning tank, and a fixed base is slidably connected to one end of the water outlet pipe. A flip cover is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed base.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] Multiple filter screens are slidably connected to the top of the fixed base, and each filter screen is fixedly connected to the top and bottom with a connecting strip.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0032] 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.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-3The present invention provides an embodiment of a convenient cleaning canned food production equipment, including a cleaning tank 1. The cleaning tank 1 is equipped with a conveyor belt 2 for transporting vegetables. Multiple connecting pipes 3 are fixedly connected to the top of the cleaning tank 1 for connecting to a transmission pipe 9. Each connecting pipe 3 has a fixing component on its outer wall for fixing the transmission pipe 9. Multiple ball bearings 7 are slidably connected inside each connecting pipe 3 for fixing the connecting pipe 3 and the transmission pipe 9. Multiple sliding grooves 8 are opened inside each connecting pipe 3 for accommodating the ball bearings 7. A transmission pipe 9 is slidably connected inside each connecting pipe 3 for transporting water. A fixing groove 10 is opened at the bottom of each transmission pipe 9 for accommodating the ball bearings 7. A spraying component is provided at the top of the transmission pipe 9 for spraying water into the cleaning tank 1.

[0034] Each fixing component includes a sliding sleeve 4, a fixing ring 5, and a spring 6. The inner wall of each sliding sleeve 4 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe 3 to fix the position of the ball bearing 7. The inner wall of each fixing ring 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe 3 to limit the movement range of the sliding sleeve 4. Each spring 6 is disposed inside the sliding sleeve 4 to provide elastic force to the sliding sleeve 4. One end of each spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inside of the sliding sleeve 4, and the other end of each spring 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing ring 5. The spraying component includes a fixing frame 11 and multiple spray heads 12. The bottom of the fixing frame 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the transmission pipe 9 to fix the spray heads 12 and transmit water flow. The top of each spray head 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing frame 11 to spray water onto the vegetables.

[0035] Specifically, when the equipment has been running for a certain period of time and a deep cleaning of the inside of the cleaning tank 1 is required, the operator first firmly holds the sliding sleeve 4 with both hands and applies appropriate downward pressure. As the sliding sleeve 4 descends, the ball bearing 7 embedded inside the connecting pipe 3 gradually breaks free from the restraint of the fixing groove 10 on the outer wall of the transmission pipe 9. Then, the operator holds the transmission pipe 9 and slowly pulls its bottom end out of the connecting pipe 3. At the moment the transmission pipe 9 is separated from the connecting pipe 3, the operator releases the sliding sleeve 4. The sliding sleeve 4 quickly springs back to its original position under the elastic force of the spring 6. At this point, the fixing bracket 11, which was originally fixed to the top of the cleaning tank 1, along with the neatly arranged spray heads 12 on it, is easily removed, clearing the way for the subsequent comprehensive cleaning of the inside of the cleaning tank 1.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5A water outlet pipe 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning tank 1 for discharging wastewater generated after cleaning. A fixed base 14 is slidably connected to one end of the water outlet pipe 13 for connecting the water outlet pipe 13 and the transport pipe 18. A flip cover 15 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed base 14 for connecting the water outlet pipe 13 and the transport pipe 18. Multiple filter screens 16 are slidably connected to the top of the fixed base 14 for filtering the wastewater inside the cleaning tank 1. Each filter screen 16 has connecting strips 17 fixedly connected to its top and bottom to fix the filter screen 16 and prevent it from shaking. A transport pipe 18 is slidably connected inside the fixed base 14 for transporting filtered clean water. One end of the transport pipe 18... A water storage tank 19 is fixedly connected to store filtered clean water. An outlet pipe 20 is fixedly connected to one side of the water storage tank 19 to discharge clean water. A valve 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the outlet pipe 20 to control the opening and closing of the outlet pipe 20. A diversion pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outlet pipe 20 to divert the discharged clean water into the delivery pipe 24. A delivery pipe 24 is provided at one end of the diversion pipe 22 to transport the clean water inside the water storage tank 19. A water pump 23 is fixedly connected to one end of the diversion pipe 22 to provide power for the movement of the clean water. The input end of the water pump 23 is connected to one end of the diversion pipe 22, and the output end of the water pump 23 is connected to one end of the delivery pipe 24.

[0037] Specifically, after the vegetable washing process is completed, the wastewater carrying mud, debris, and residual dirt rushes down the outlet pipe 13. The water first reaches the filter screen 16, which is made of fine metal wire. Here, larger impurities are steadily intercepted. The filtered water then flows down the transport pipe 18 and meanders into the water storage tank 19. When the water level in the water storage tank 19 reaches the preset standard, the water pump 23 starts and quickly pumps out the filtered water in the water storage tank 19. The water flows out from the outlet pipe 20 and into the diversion pipe 22, and then is precisely introduced into the delivery pipe 24. At this point, the purified water is put back into the washing cycle to contribute to the next round of cleaning.

[0038] Working principle: When using the easy-to-clean canned food production equipment, when it is necessary to remove the spray head 12 to clean the inside of the cleaning tank 1, first hold the sliding sleeve 4 and move it downwards to make the ball bearing 7 disengage from the fixing groove 10 on the outer wall of the transmission pipe 9. Then hold the transmission pipe 9 and pull its bottom end out of the connecting pipe 3. At this time, release the sliding sleeve 4 so that it returns to its original position under the action of the spring 6, thereby removing the fixing frame 11 along with the spray head 12. The wastewater generated after cleaning first flows out from the outlet pipe 13, and then passes through the filter screen 16 to filter the impurities in the water. Then it flows into the water storage tank 19 through the transport pipe 18. This part of the filtered water is pumped out by the water pump 23, flows out from the outlet pipe 20 into the diversion pipe 22, and finally enters the conveying pipe 24 to participate in the cleaning process again.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
