[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0020] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figures 1-4 As shown in this embodiment, a cleaning device for agricultural product processing includes a cleaning tank 1. A water inlet pipe 2 and a sewage outlet pipe 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the cleaning tank 1. A material basket 7 is provided between the inner walls of the cleaning tank 1. A support plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the material basket 7. A lifting frame 11 is slidably connected between the inner walls of the material basket 7. A lifting assembly is provided inside the material basket 7. The lifting assembly is used to drive the lifting frame 11 to move. A pressure net 16 is provided between the inner walls of the lifting frame 11. An installation structure is provided between the lifting frame 11 and the pressure net 16. The installation structure is used to connect the lifting frame 11 and the pressure net 16. A lifting electric cylinder 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. The movable end of the lifting electric cylinder 5 extends into the interior of the cleaning tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the support plate 6. An extension connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning tank 1.

[0021] During operation, the agricultural product processing and cleaning equipment is first connected to an external power source to power it on. Then, the agricultural products to be cleaned are placed in the material basket 7 (specifically, a stainless steel woven mesh basket with a mesh size of 10-15mm). The pressure mesh 16 (specifically, a flexible food-grade mesh material, core layer: 316L stainless steel wire mesh; base layer: food-grade silicone coating) is then locked to the lifting frame 11 using the installation structure. The lifting assembly then lowers the lifting frame 11, creating a flexible clamping space between the pressure mesh 16 and the material basket 7 to secure the agricultural products. Subsequently, cleaning water is introduced through the water inlet pipe 2, creating a swirling flow field. Simultaneously, the lifting cylinder 5 drives the support plate 6, causing the material basket 7 to reciprocate vertically, ensuring the agricultural products are thoroughly cleaned under the impact of the three-dimensional water flow. Waste generated during the cleaning process is discharged through the drain pipe 3. The extension connection plate 4 can be used to install handheld nozzles, further increasing the cleaning modes of the agricultural product processing and cleaning equipment and improving the cleaning effect. This equipment, through the combination of pressure mesh 16 fixation and three-dimensional cleaning modes, achieves efficient cleaning of agricultural products while effectively reducing mechanical damage during the cleaning process.

[0022] like Figures 1-4As shown, the lifting assembly includes two fixed plates 8, which are respectively fixedly connected to the inner walls of the material basket 7 on both sides. Threaded collars 9 and fixed collars 10 are respectively fixedly connected to the top of the two fixed plates 8. A threaded rod 12 is rotatably connected to the top of the lifting frame 11. The outer side of the threaded rod 12 is threadedly connected to the threaded collar 9. A sliding rod 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting frame 11. The outer side of the sliding rod 13 is slidably connected to the fixed collar 10. A rotating block 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod 12, and a limiting block 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding rod 13.

[0023] The operator rotates the rotating block 14, causing the threaded rod 12 to rotate. Since the threaded rod 12 and the threaded collar 9 on the fixed plate 8 form a threaded engagement, and the lifting frame 11 is kept in sliding constraint with the fixed collar 10 on the other side via the sliding rod 13, the rotational motion of the threaded rod 12 is converted into the vertical linear motion of the lifting frame 11. When the threaded rod 12 rotates clockwise, the lifting frame 11 rises upward along the guide of the threaded collar 9 and the fixed collar 10; when it rotates counterclockwise, it descends in the opposite direction. The limiting block 15 prevents the sliding rod 13 from disengaging from the fixed collar 10, ensuring stability during the lifting process, ultimately achieving a flexible clamping space between the pressure net 16 and the material basket 7 to secure agricultural products.

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the installation structure includes four connecting blocks 17, all of which are fixedly connected to the top of the pressure net 16. The top of the lifting frame 11 is fixedly connected to four threaded holes 19. The top of the connecting blocks 17 is provided with fastening bolts 18, and the bottom end of the fastening bolts 18 extends into the interior of the threaded holes 19 and is threadedly connected to their inner walls.

[0025] When the pressure net 16 needs to be fixed to the lifting frame 11, the operator aligns the four connecting blocks 17 with the four threaded holes 19 on the top of the lifting frame 11, and then tightens the fastening bolts 18 so that their bottom ends pass through the connecting blocks 17 and are screwed into the threaded holes 19. Through the axial tensile force generated by the threaded engagement, the fastening bolts 18 tightly press the connecting blocks 17 against the top of the lifting frame 11, thus achieving a rigid connection between the pressure net 16 and the lifting frame 11. To disassemble, simply rotate the fastening bolts 18 in the opposite direction to release the fixation. This design ensures connection stability through the self-locking characteristic of the threads, while utilizing four-point distributed fixing to enhance the overall compressive strength of the structure.

[0026] This utility model provides a cleaning device for agricultural product processing. The specific working principle is as follows: During operation, the agricultural products to be cleaned are first placed in the material basket 7. Then, the pressure net 16 is fixed to the lifting frame 11 by the fastening bolts 18. Next, the rotating block 14 drives the threaded rod 12 to rotate, causing the lifting frame 11 to move down along the threaded collar 9 and the fixed collar 10, thereby forming a flexible clamping space between the pressure net 16 and the material basket 7 to fix the agricultural products. After fixing, the water inlet pipe 2 introduces cleaning water to form a swirling field. At the same time, the lifting electric cylinder 5 drives the support plate 6 to move the material basket 7 vertically reciprocating, so that the agricultural products are fully cleaned under the impact of three-dimensional water flow. The dirt generated during the cleaning process is discharged through the drain pipe 3. If necessary, a handheld nozzle can be added to the extension connecting plate 4 to enhance the cleaning effect, ultimately achieving efficient cleaning of agricultural products while effectively reducing mechanical damage.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
