[0002] The widespread use of plastic products has led to a surge in waste, making efficient recycling a necessity. In the recycling process, oil, labels, and impurities adhering to the surface of the plastic fragments directly affect the quality of the recycled products, making cleaning a crucial pretreatment step.

[0003] Traditional single-method washing, friction, or chemical cleaning is insufficient to thoroughly remove complex contaminants, requiring repeated treatments that are time-consuming and energy-intensive. Open-type rinsing structures result in high water consumption and increased wastewater treatment costs, contradicting the trend of green production. Fixed cleaning units cannot flexibly handle different materials or fragment sizes, easily causing uneven cleaning or material damage. They also require a high proportion of manual sorting and feeding, resulting in poor cleaning continuity and limiting large-scale processing capabilities.

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-7 The plastic debris cleaning tank shown includes a tank body. The interior of the tank body is arranged from right to left as follows: a pre-cleaning area 1, an ultrasonic cleaning area 2, a spray cleaning area 3, and a draining area 4. Adjacent areas are separated by partitions 5. All areas are the same size. There are mounting grooves 6 between adjacent areas to accommodate the partitions 5.

[0030] Specifically, a first filter screen 11 is installed at the bottom of the pre-cleaning zone 1, and a first collection tank 12 is provided below the first filter screen 11. The first collection tank 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank body. A feeding component 7 is provided above the pre-cleaning zone 1 and is placed on one side of the pre-cleaning zone 1.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 The feeding assembly 7 includes a material box 71, a material extraction pipe 72 is installed above the material box 71, a discharge port 73 is provided at the end of the material extraction pipe 72, and multiple spray heads 74 are provided on both sides of the discharge port 73. The multiple spray heads 74 are connected to an external water source through pipes, and the multiple spray heads 74 face the discharge direction of the discharge port 73.

[0032] In this embodiment, plastic fragments in the material box 71 are pumped to the discharge port 73 through the extraction pipe 72. During the falling process, water is sprayed simultaneously from the spray heads 74 on both sides to complete the initial rinsing and wash away loose contaminants on the surface. After the fragments fall into the pre-cleaning area 1, the mud and other impurities carried by the water flow settle into the first collection tank 12 through the first filter screen 11, which is convenient for subsequent centralized treatment.

[0033] In this embodiment, large particles of debris are removed through tumbling and friction in the pre-cleaning zone 1, while the first filter screen 11 at the bottom intercepts impurities, initially separating solid contaminants from plastic fragments. The first collection tank 12 is cleaned periodically to maintain filtration efficiency.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 An ultrasonic generator 21 is installed at the bottom of the ultrasonic cleaning zone 2. The ultrasonic generator 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank. Multiple stirring blades 22 are installed on the inner sides of the inner walls on both sides of the ultrasonic cleaning zone 2. One end of the stirring blade 22 is connected to the bottom of the tank through a rotating shaft 23, and the other end is connected to the connecting plates 24 on both sides of the ultrasonic cleaning zone 2. A first motor 25 is connected to the connecting plate 24.

[0035] In this embodiment, the debris enters the ultrasonic cleaning zone 2 through the opening in the partition 5. The ultrasonic generator 21 is activated to generate high-frequency vibration, which, combined with the mechanical agitation of the stirring blades 22 on both sides, removes stubborn oil stains and impurities from the micropores. The ultrasonic cleaning time can be set to 3-5 minutes, and the power can be adjusted according to the degree of contamination.

[0036] Reference Figure 5 The top of the spray cleaning area 3 extends an L-shaped frame 31, and multiple spray pipes 32 are installed on the inner side of the top. Spray buckets 33 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the spray pipes 32. The spray pipes 32 are connected to an external high-pressure water source through pipes. A second filter screen 34 is installed at the bottom of the spray cleaning area 3. A second collection tank 35 is set below the second filter screen 34. The second collection tank 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank.

[0037] In this embodiment, after the fragments are transferred to the spray cleaning zone 3, the top spray pipe 32 performs a high-pressure water curtain-style rinsing through the spray bucket 33 to thoroughly remove residual pollutants. The second filter screen 34 intercepts the fine particles after cleaning, and the wastewater is discharged into the second collection tank 35 to achieve secondary solid-liquid separation.

[0038] Reference Figure 6-7 A vibrating plate 41 is installed at the bottom of the draining area 4. Multiple springs 42 are installed below the vibrating plate 41. One end of the spring 42 is fixedly connected to the vibrating plate 41, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank. A second motor 43 is connected to one side of the vibrating plate 41. The second motor 43 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the tank. A discharge port 44 is provided on one side of the draining area 4. The discharge port 44 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the tank. A receiving box 8 is provided below the discharge port 44.

[0039] In this embodiment, the fragments enter the draining zone 4, where the second motor 43 drives the vibrating plate 41 to generate high-frequency vibration. Combined with the elastic support of the spring 42, this accelerates the removal of moisture from the fragment surface. The dried fragments slide along the inclined surface of the discharge plate 45 into the receiving box 8, where the baffle plate 46 prevents fragments from splashing, completing the entire process.

[0040] Specifically, a discharge plate 45 is provided below the discharge port 44 and a baffle plate 46 is provided above it. The upper surface of the discharge plate 45 is inclined and extends above the receiving box 8.

[0041] In this embodiment, the feeding assembly 7 and the discharge port 44 form a continuous production line, which, together with the motor drive devices in each area, enables unattended continuous operation. The stirring blades 22 work in conjunction with ultrasonic waves to avoid cleaning dead corners, making it particularly suitable for the complex surface treatment of irregularly shaped plastic fragments. The spray head 74 performs a simultaneous pre-wash at the discharge port, reducing the pressure of subsequent cleaning and saving approximately 15% of water. The high-level spray pipe layout of the L-shaped frame 31 avoids splashing of high-pressure water, and the spring damping structure of the vibrating plate 41 reduces noise pollution. The high-frequency vibration of the vibrating plate 41 can reduce the moisture content of the fragments to below 5%, directly meeting the humidity requirements for recycling and granulation. The partition 5 is detachable via the mounting slot 6, facilitating zoned maintenance; the filter screen and collection tank adopt a plug-in structure for convenient and quick cleaning and maintenance.

[0042] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
