Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of kitchen waste treatment technology, and in particular relates to a buffer pool surface cleaning device for kitchen waste treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Kitchen waste, as a type of organic waste, encompasses discarded vegetable leaves, leftover food, fruit peels, bones, and other items generated in residents' daily lives and food processing activities. Its sources are wide-ranging, mainly from family kitchens, restaurants, canteens, and other food processing-related industries. Because kitchen waste contains extremely high levels of moisture and organic matter, it is highly susceptible to decay and produces foul odors.

[0003] In the process of food waste disposal, the buffer pool plays a crucial role in temporary storage, facilitating subsequent centralized processing. However, after long-term use, a large amount of residue tends to accumulate on the inner wall of the buffer pool. Currently, the traditional cleaning method usually requires operators to manually scrape off the residue using tools. This method not only consumes a lot of time and energy for operators, but also has extremely low cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a surface cleaning device for a buffer tank used in kitchen waste treatment. By setting up a cleaning mechanism, specifically when cleaning the inner wall of the buffer tank, after the motor is started, it drives the rotating shaft and gear to rotate. The gear meshes with the rack and pinion, causing the rack and pinion to drive the moving plate, connecting rod and scraper to slide up and down along the guide rod. The rectangular scraper scrapes against the four inner walls of the buffer tank back and forth to remove stubborn residue, realizing automated cleaning of the inner wall of the buffer tank, replacing manual cleaning, reducing labor intensity, improving cleaning efficiency, and solving the problem that traditional cleaning methods usually require operators to manually use tools to scrape off residue when dealing with the inner wall of the buffer tank.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model relates to a surface cleaning device for a buffer pool used in kitchen waste treatment, comprising a buffer pool and further comprising:

[0007] A cleaning mechanism, installed at the top of the cache pool, is used to clean the inner walls of the cache pool; and

[0008] A slag scraping mechanism is installed outside the buffer pool and is used to scrape and collect the floating slag of kitchen waste on the surface of the buffer pool.

[0009] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a scraping assembly mounted on top of the buffer pool, the scraping assembly being used to remove stubborn residue adhering to the walls of the buffer pool; and

[0010] A drive component, mounted on top of the cache pool, is used to power the cleaning action of the scraping component;

[0011] A transmission assembly, mounted on top of the buffer pool, is used to transmit power provided by the drive assembly to the scraping assembly;

[0012] The power provided by the drive component is first transmitted to the transmission component, and then transmitted to the scraping component, thereby converting the rotational motion of the drive component into the linear motion of the scraping component.

[0013] Furthermore, the scum scraping mechanism includes a scum scraping assembly installed at the top of the buffer pool, the scum scraping assembly being used to scrape and clean the scum on the surface of the pool; and

[0014] A collection component is installed outside the buffer pool and is used to collect the scum scraped and cleaned by the scum scraping component;

[0015] The collection component is located on the left side of the cache pool, and the scum scraping component is located on top of the collection component. The scum scraped and cleaned by the scum scraping component is collected by the collection component under the action of gravity.

[0016] Furthermore, the scraping assembly includes a support frame fixedly connected to the outside of the buffer pool, and a plurality of guide rods are fixedly connected between the support frame and the inner bottom wall of the buffer pool, and a scraper is slidably connected to the outer wall of the plurality of guide rods;

[0017] There are four guide rods.

[0018] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a motor mounted on the top of the support frame, the output shaft of the motor being fixedly connected to a rotating shaft via a coupling, and a gear being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft.

[0019] Among them, motor one drives shaft one to rotate, and shaft one rotates, which in turn drives gear one to rotate.

[0020] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a rack extending through the top of the support frame, the rack being slidably connected to the top of the support frame, two connecting rods being fixedly connected to the top of the scraper, a movable plate being fixedly connected to the top of the two connecting rods, the movable plate being fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rack, and the rack meshing with a gear.

[0021] When the gear rotates, it drives the rack to move up and down, which in turn drives the connecting rod and the moving plate to move, thereby driving the scraper to scrape and clean the impurities on the inner wall of the buffer pool.

[0022] Furthermore, the slag scraping assembly includes a second motor installed on the front side of the buffer pool, the output shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected to a second rotating shaft via a coupling, and a plurality of scraper blades are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second rotating shaft.

[0023] Among them, motor 2 is connected to the buffer pool by bolts, and shaft 2 is rotatably connected to the buffer pool by bearings.

[0024] Furthermore, the collection assembly includes a collection box fixedly connected to the left side of the buffer pool, a guide plate fixedly connected to the left side of the buffer pool, a filter plate fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box, a waste discharge pipe fixedly connected to the left side of the collection box, a valve fixedly connected to the outer wall of the waste discharge pipe, and two slag discharge troughs opened on the left side of the buffer pool.

[0025] The scum scraped off by the scum scraping assembly falls onto the guide plate through the scum discharge trough, and is then collected into the collection box by the guide plate. Finally, it undergoes solid-liquid separation through the filter plate.

[0026] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] 1. By setting up a cleaning mechanism, specifically when cleaning the inner wall of the buffer pool, the motor starts and drives the rotating shaft and gear to rotate. The gear meshes with the rack and pinion, causing the rack to drive the moving plate, connecting rod and scraper to slide up and down along the guide rod. The rectangular scraper scrapes against the four inner walls of the buffer pool to remove stubborn residue, thus realizing automated cleaning of the inner wall of the buffer pool, replacing manual cleaning, reducing labor intensity and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0028] 2. By setting up a scum scraping mechanism, specifically when it is necessary to clean the scum on the surface of the buffer pool, motor two drives shaft two and six scraper two to rotate, scraping the scum on the pool surface and letting it fall onto the guide plate through the scum discharge trough. The scum then slides along the guide plate into the collection box, where it undergoes solid-liquid separation through the filter plate. The liquid is discharged through the waste discharge pipe, while the solid is temporarily stored in the collection box. This achieves automatic scraping and collection of scum on the surface of the buffer pool, timely cleaning of scum to avoid accumulation and affect subsequent processing, and the scum discharge trough can intercept large waste. The filter plate achieves solid-liquid separation, reducing the load on subsequent processing and improving cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0039] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a surface cleaning device for a buffer pool used in kitchen waste treatment, including a buffer pool 1, and further comprising:

[0044] Transmission assembly 23 is mounted on top of buffer pool 1 and is used to transmit the power provided by drive assembly 22 to scraping assembly 21.

[0045] The power provided by the drive component 22 is first transmitted to the transmission component 23, and then transmitted to the scraping component 21 through the transmission component 23, thereby converting the rotational motion of the drive component 22 into the linear motion of the scraping component 21.

[0046] The scum scraping mechanism 3 includes a scum scraping assembly 31, which is installed on top of the buffer pool 1 and is used to scrape and clean the scum on the surface of the pool; and

[0047] Collection component 32 is installed outside the buffer pool 1 and is used to collect the scum scraped and cleaned by the scum scraping component 31.

[0048] The collection component 32 is located on the left side of the buffer pool 1, and the scum scraping component 31 is located on top of the collection component 32. The scum scraped and cleaned by the scum scraping component 31 is collected by the collection component 32 under the action of gravity.

[0049] The scraping assembly 21 includes a support frame 211 fixedly connected to the outside of the buffer pool 1. A plurality of guide rods 212 are fixedly connected between the support frame 211 and the inner bottom wall of the buffer pool 1. A scraper 213 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the plurality of guide rods 212.

[0050] Among them, scraper 213 is designed to be rectangular, so that it can simultaneously scrape and clean the residue on the four inner walls of the front, back, left and right sides of the buffer pool 1.

[0051] Drive assembly 22 includes a motor 221 mounted on top of support frame 211. The output shaft of motor 221 is fixedly connected to shaft 222 via a coupling. Gear 223 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of shaft 222.

[0052] Among them, motor 221 is connected to support frame 211 by bolts.

[0053] The transmission assembly 23 includes a rack 231 that passes through the top of the support frame 211. The rack 231 is slidably connected to the top of the support frame 211. Two connecting rods 232 are fixedly connected to the top of the scraper 213. A movable plate 233 is fixedly connected to the top of the two connecting rods 232. The movable plate 233 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rack 231. The rack 231 meshes with the gear 223.

[0054] Among them, rack 231 is designed as a column.

[0055] The slag scraping assembly 31 includes a second motor 311 installed on the front side of the buffer pool 1. The output shaft of the second motor 311 is fixedly connected to a second rotating shaft 312 via a coupling. Several scraper blades 313 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second rotating shaft 312.

[0056] Among them, there are six scraper blades 2 313, and all six scraper blades 2 313 are rectangular.

[0057] The collection component 32 includes a collection box 321 fixedly connected to the left side of the buffer pool 1. A guide plate 322 is fixedly connected to the left side of the buffer pool 1. A filter plate 323 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box 321. A waste discharge pipe 324 is fixedly connected to the left side of the collection box 321. A valve 325 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the waste discharge pipe 324. Two slag discharge troughs are opened on the left side of the buffer pool 1.

[0058] The guide plate 322 is fixedly connected to the buffer pool 1 by welding and is at a certain tilt angle.

[0059] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to clean the inner wall of the buffer pool 1, the motor 221 starts, driving the rotating shaft 222 to rotate. The gear 223, which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 222, rotates accordingly. Since the gear 223 meshes with the rack 231, the rotation of the gear 223 will drive the rack 231 to make linear reciprocating motion on the top of the support frame 211. The rack 231 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 233, and the moving plate 233 is connected to the scraper 213 through the connecting rod 232. Therefore, the movement of the rack 231 can drive... Scraper 213 slides up and down along the guide rod 212 on the inner wall of the buffer tank 1. The rectangular scraper 213 fits against the four inner walls of the buffer tank 1, and removes stubborn residues attached to the tank wall through reciprocating scraping action. When the scraper 213 is not used to clean the inner wall of the buffer tank 1, it can also be raised to a certain height so that the scraper 213 is out of contact with the inner wall of the buffer tank 1, so as to avoid being soaked and corroded by sewage when idle, and at the same time make room for the garbage to enter and exit the tank, reducing interference with equipment operation.

[0060] When buffer pool 1 is operating normally and continuously receiving kitchen waste, it is necessary to clean the surface scum in a timely manner to prevent scum accumulation from affecting subsequent processing. Motor 2 311 starts, and its output shaft drives rotating shaft 2 312 to rotate. The six rectangular scrapers 2 313 fixed on the outer wall of rotating shaft 2 312 move in a circle around rotating shaft 2 312. During the rotation, scrapers 2 313 scrape the kitchen waste scum floating on the surface of buffer pool 1. The scraped scum is pushed by scrapers 2 313 and falls onto guide plate 322 through scum discharge channel. It then slides into collection box 321 by gravity along the inclined surface of guide plate 322. Large garbage in the scraped scum can be intercepted through the scum discharge channel. The filter plate 323 inside collection box 321 performs solid-liquid separation on the incoming scum. The separated liquid can be discharged through waste discharge pipe 324, while the solid residue is temporarily stored in collection box 321 for subsequent centralized processing, thereby achieving effective collection and cleaning of scum on the surface of buffer pool 1.
