Therefore, this utility model proposes a brush cleaning device for navel oranges. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a brush cleaning device for navel oranges to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a brush cleaning device for navel oranges, comprising a cleaning tank, a water pool inside the cleaning tank, a feed pipe at the top of the cleaning tank, a pressure block above one end of the feed pipe, and the other end communicating with the inside of the water pool, a slot at the top of the water pool, a push plate at the slot, a plurality of rollers rotatably arranged inside the water pool, brushes on the outer surface of the rollers, a rotating shaft connected to the top of the rollers, and one end of the rotating shaft passing through the cleaning tank and connected to the output end of a motor installed on the outer wall of the feed pipe.

[0005] Preferably, a first cylinder is provided above the cleaning tank, the telescopic end of the first cylinder is connected to the top of the pressure block, and the bottom of the pressure block is sloped.

[0006] Preferably, the push plate is inclined at the slot, the cleaning tank is equipped with a second cylinder, one end of the push plate extends into the water tank, and the other end is connected to the telescopic end of the second cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, the cleaning tank has a discharge port on the grooved side, and the discharge port is sloping.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the navel oranges are pushed into the water tank from the feed pipe by the pressing block, the roller rotates under the drive of the motor, so that the brush washes the navel oranges that pass by, and then the navel oranges float up to the slot under the action of buoyancy, and are pushed to the discharge port by the push plate and leave.

[0012] 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.

[0013] Referring to Figures (1-2), a brush cleaning device for navel oranges includes a cleaning tank 1, a water pool 11 inside the cleaning tank 1, a feed pipe 12 at the top of the cleaning tank 1, a pressure block 3 above one end of the feed pipe 12, and the other end communicating with the inside of the water pool 11. A slot 13 is opened at the top of the water pool 11, and a push plate 4 is provided at the slot 13. Several rollers 2 are rotatably arranged inside the water pool 11, and brushes are provided on the outer surface of the rollers 2. A rotating shaft 21 is connected to the top of the rollers 2, and one end of the rotating shaft 21 passes through the cleaning tank 1 and is connected to the output end of a motor 22 installed on the outer wall of the feed pipe 12.

[0014] A first cylinder 31 is installed above the cleaning tank 1. The telescopic end of the first cylinder 31 is connected to the top of the pressure block 3, and the bottom of the pressure block 3 is sloped. A push plate 4 is inclinedly installed at the slot 13. A second cylinder 41 is installed on the cleaning tank 1. One end of the push plate 4 extends into the water tank 11, and the other end is connected to the telescopic end of the second cylinder 41. A discharge port 14 is provided on the cleaning tank 1 and on the side of the slot 13. The discharge port 14 is sloped.

[0015] When using this device, after filling the water tank 11 with water, put the navel oranges into the feed pipe 12. At the same time, start the motor 22 to drive the roller 2 to rotate. Start the first cylinder 31 to push the pressure block 3 downward. The pressure block 3 pushes the navel oranges downward into the space between the rollers 2, where they come into contact with the brushes on the rollers 2 and are brushed. Then, the navel oranges float upward due to the buoyancy of the water. Due to the slope at the bottom of the pressure block 3, the navel oranges tend to float more towards the groove 13 and emerge from the water surface at the groove 13. Then, start the second cylinder 41 to drive the push plate 4 to move towards the discharge port 14 and finally slide out from the discharge port.

[0016] The orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings are for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.

[0017] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0018] 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.
