Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable draining technology, and in particular to a continuous conveying and draining device for washing vegetables. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern food processing industry, vegetable washing and draining are crucial steps in ensuring food safety and quality. Traditional methods of washing and draining vegetables mostly rely on manual labor, involving soaking vegetables in water tanks for washing and then manually transporting them to drain baskets or designated areas for drying. This method is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also makes it difficult to ensure uniform washing and draining, easily causing damage to the vegetables and affecting product quality.

[0003] With the increasing scale and automation of the food processing industry, the market demand for vegetable washing and draining equipment is growing. While some existing automated washing and draining equipment has improved work efficiency to a certain extent, it still has many problems. For example, most current vegetable washing and draining devices use long conveyor belts to transport vegetables and drain water through filters. However, some water adheres to the inside of the vegetables and simply slides off by gravity, resulting in low efficiency and insufficient draining. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a continuous conveying and draining device for washing vegetables, which effectively solves the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A continuous conveying and draining device for washing vegetables, comprising a conveyor box, wherein a drive roller and a driven roller are rotatably connected to both sides of the bottom of the inner wall of the conveyor box, and a connecting ear is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of both sides of the conveyor box. A guide strip-shaped through hole is opened at the center of each of the two connecting ears, and a connecting shaft is slidably connected to the inner walls of the two guide strip-shaped through holes. A tensioning roller is rotatably connected to the middle of the connecting shaft. A conveyor belt is driven and connected to the outer walls of the drive roller, the driven roller, and the tensioning roller. Rotary rollers are rotatably connected to both sides of the bottom of the inner wall of the conveyor box. The shaft has two supporting lugs fixedly connected to both sides of its middle section. A push roller is rotatably connected to the center of the supporting lugs on the side away from the shaft. The distance from the push roller to the shaft is greater than the distance from the shaft to the top surface of the inner wall of the conveyor belt. One end of each shaft extends through one side of the outer wall of the conveyor box and is fixedly connected to a drive sprocket. The outer walls of the two drive sprockets are connected to a drive chain. A reduction motor and a drive motor are fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor box. The output end of the reduction motor is fixedly connected to the center of the shaft at one end of the drive roller. The output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to one end of either of the two shafts.

[0006] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, a fan is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the conveyor box, and a discharge ramp is fixedly connected to the bottom of one end of the conveyor box. The top of the inner wall of the discharge ramp is located at the bottom of one end of the outer wall of the conveyor belt, and the width of the discharge ramp is adapted to the width of the conveyor belt.

[0007] The technical effects achieved by adopting the above solution are: the fan can continuously deliver water to the vegetables, which can dry the adhering water and improve the drainage effect; the unloading ramp can guide the drained vegetables to slide down.

[0008] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, a support frame is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom surface of the conveying box, a water receiving tank is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the two support frames, a drain pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of one side of the water receiving tank, the drain pipe is connected to the middle of the inner wall of the water receiving tank, the length of the water receiving tank is greater than the length of the bottom of the conveying box, and the width of the water receiving tank is adapted to the width of the inner wall of the conveying box.

[0009] The technical effect achieved by adopting the above solution is that the water receiving tank can completely receive the water that drains from the bottom of the conveying tank.

[0010] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the bottom of the two connecting ears is positioned higher than the top of the water tank, the width of the conveyor belt is adapted to the width of the inner wall of the conveyor box, and the length of the top of the conveyor belt is adapted to the length of the inner wall of the conveyor box.

[0011] The technical effect achieved by adopting the above solution is that the conveyor box can protect the vegetables from both sides, preventing the vegetables from falling.

[0012] Preferably, in any of the above schemes, the length of the guide strip through hole is greater than the distance from the push roller to the rotating shaft, and the length of the push roller is adapted to the width of the conveyor belt.

[0013] The technical effect achieved by the above solution is to prevent the connecting shaft from sliding and interfering with the guide strip through hole when the push roller pushes the conveyor belt upward.

[0014] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. This continuous vegetable washing and draining device can transport washed vegetables through the top part of the conveyor belt. When the vegetables are transported to the position between the two rotating shafts, the rotating shafts rotate, causing the push roller to rotate continuously and push the conveyor belt upward. At the same time, under the pressure of the tension roller, the push roller is disengaged from the conveyor belt and falls down, thereby causing the top of the conveyor belt to vibrate up and down at high frequency, which shakes off the water droplets adhering to the vegetables and improves the draining efficiency of the vegetables.

[0016] 2. This continuous vegetable washing and draining device uses a fan to continuously deliver water to the vegetables, which can dry the adhering water and improve the draining effect. At the same time, the water can be collected and discharged through the water tank. Attached Figure Description

[0028] 1) The washed vegetables can be transported through the top part of the conveyor belt 2;

[0029] 2) When the vegetables are conveyed to the position between the two rotating shafts 14, the rotating shafts 14 rotate, which causes the push roller 16 to rotate continuously and push the conveyor belt 2 upward.

[0030] 3) At the same time, under the pressure of the tensioning roller 8, the push roller 16 is disengaged from the conveyor belt 2 and falls down, which causes the top of the conveyor belt 2 to vibrate up and down at a high frequency, causing the water droplets adhering to the vegetables to fall off.

[0031] In summary, this utility model allows washed vegetables to be transported through the top part of the conveyor belt 2. When the vegetables are transported to the position between the two rotating shafts 14, the rotation of the rotating shafts 14 causes the push roller 16 to rotate and push the conveyor belt 2 upward. At the same time, under the pressure of the tension roller 8, the push roller 16 is disengaged from the conveyor belt 2 and falls down, causing the top of the conveyor belt 2 to vibrate up and down at high frequency, shaking off the water droplets adhering to the vegetables and improving the drainage efficiency. The fan 13 can continuously supply air to the vegetables to dry the adhering water and improve the drainage effect. At the same time, the water receiving tank 9 can collect and discharge the water.
