Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of strawberry grading and cleaning technology, specifically a strawberry grading and cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] In the grading and cleaning process of strawberries, the strawberries are usually cleaned first using a cleaning machine, and then the cleaned strawberries need to be transported to a grading machine for grading. In this process, the buffer belt plays a crucial role. It is set at the bottom of the discharge port of the cleaning machine and can effectively buffer the strawberries falling after cleaning, reducing the risk of damage caused by the strawberries falling directly to the grading machine.

[0003] However, in actual operation, when a large number of strawberries fall rapidly from the washing machine onto the buffer belt via the elevator, although the buffer belt plays a certain role in cushioning, it is still difficult to avoid some strawberries being damaged due to the impact of falling. The juice from these damaged strawberries will quickly stick to the surface of the buffer belt. Over time, if the buffer belt is not cleaned in time, this sticky juice will easily contaminate the surface of undamaged strawberries that pass through the buffer belt later during the continuous operation of the buffer belt, which will seriously affect the overall quality of the strawberries, reduce the market competitiveness of the product, and may also accelerate the aging and damage of the buffer belt due to the residue of impurities, increase equipment maintenance costs and replacement frequency, and affect production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a strawberry grading and cleaning device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a strawberry grading and cleaning device, comprising a cleaning machine and a buffer belt. A buffer belt is provided at the bottom of the outlet of the cleaning machine. Support plates are fixed to both sides of the bottom of the buffer belt. Cleaning components are provided on the inner side of the support plates. Vertical rods are fixed to both sides of the bottom of the buffer belt. Springs are sleeved on the outer walls of the vertical rods, and the top of the springs is connected to the bottom of the buffer belt. A sleeve is sleeved at the bottom of the outer walls of the vertical rods, and the top of the sleeve is connected to the bottom of the spring. An auxiliary component is provided on the inner side of the sleeve. A support base is fixed on the inner side of the auxiliary component. A slot is opened at the top of the support base, and a locking block is engaged inside the slot. A sponge block is fixed to the top of the locking block.

[0006] Preferably, the cleaning component includes a rotating block, which is rotatably connected to the inner side of the support plate. A scraper is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating block, and the cleaning end of the scraper is in contact with the buffer strip.

[0007] Preferably, a torsion spring is machined inside the connection between the support plate and the rotating block.

[0008] Preferably, the scraper is L-shaped and the cleaning end is conical, which facilitates cleaning the surface of the buffer zone.

[0009] Preferably, the auxiliary component includes a horizontal plate, which is fixed to the inner side of the sleeve. A connecting plate is rotatably connected to the inner side of the horizontal plate. A fixing groove plate is sleeved between the connecting plate and the outer wall of the horizontal plate. The inner side of the connecting plate is connected to the support base.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting plate and the horizontal plate are rectangular, and the connection is made by a rotating shaft. When the fixing slot plate is sleeved between the connecting plate and the horizontal plate, it can limit the connection and prevent it from rotating.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] By installing cleaning components on the inner side of the support plates on both sides of the bottom end of the buffer belt, and using the scraper on the rotating block and the torsion spring, the cleaning end of the scraper is always in contact with the surface of the buffer belt. This can effectively and promptly clean the juice and impurities stuck to the buffer belt due to strawberry damage, ensuring the cleanliness of the buffer belt and preventing impurities from contaminating subsequent strawberries. It also ensures the normal operation and service life of the buffer belt.

[0013] The unique design of the auxiliary components facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the sponge block. Users only need to slide the fixed groove plate, pull the sleeve, and rotate the support base to rotate the sponge block to an easy-to-operate position. The sponge block can then be disassembled and replaced by pulling out the locking block. The operation is simple and quick, improving maintenance efficiency and ensuring the continuous and efficient operation of the device.

[0014] The spring force is used to make the sponge block adhere to the surface of the buffer belt, which cleans the residual water on the surface of the buffer belt a second time, further improving the cleanliness of the buffer belt and providing a cleaner transportation environment for subsequent grading work, ensuring that the strawberry grading process is not affected by residual liquid.

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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution for a strawberry grading and cleaning device: A strawberry grading and cleaning device includes a cleaning machine 1 and a buffer belt 2. The bottom end of the outlet of the cleaning machine 1 is provided with a buffer belt 2, which is used to buffer the strawberries when they fall downwards after cleaning, reducing damage to the strawberries. The bottom right end of the buffer belt 2 is connected to a grading machine 3. Support plates 4 are fixed on both sides of the bottom end of the buffer belt 2, which are used to support the rotating block 5. A cleaning component is provided on the inner side of the support plate 4, which is used to clean the surface of the buffer belt 2. Vertical rods 7 are fixed on both sides of the bottom end of the buffer belt 2. The outer wall of the vertical rods 7... A spring 8 is fitted onto the sleeve 9, which is used to pull the sleeve 9 upward. The top of the spring 8 is connected to the bottom of the buffer strip 2. The bottom of the outer wall of the vertical rod 7 is fitted with a sleeve 9, which is used to provide support for the support base 13. The top of the sleeve 9 is connected to the bottom of the spring 8. An auxiliary component is provided on the inner side of the sleeve 9. The auxiliary component can facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the sponge block 15. The support base 13 is fixed on the inner side of the auxiliary component. The support base 13 is used to provide support for the sponge block 15. A slot is opened at the top of the support base 13, and a locking block 14 is locked inside the slot. The top of the locking block 14 is fixed with the sponge block 15.

[0023] The cleaning component includes a rotating block 5, which is rotatably connected to the inner side of the support plate 4. The rotating block 5 is used to support the scraper 6. The scraper 6 is fixed on the outer wall of the rotating block 5. The scraper 6 is attached to the surface of the buffer belt for cleaning. The cleaning end of the scraper 6 is attached to the buffer belt 2. A torsion spring is machined inside the connection between the support plate 4 and the rotating block 5. The scraper 6 is L-shaped and the cleaning end is conical, which facilitates cleaning the surface of the buffer belt 2.

[0024] The auxiliary component includes a horizontal plate 10, which is fixed inside the sleeve 9. The horizontal plate 10 supports the connecting plate 11. The connecting plate 11 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the horizontal plate 10. A fixing groove plate 12 is sleeved between the connecting plate 11 and the outer wall of the horizontal plate 10. The fixing groove plate 12 can limit the connection between the connecting plate 11 and the horizontal plate 12. The inner side of the connecting plate 11 is connected to the support base 13. The connecting plate 11 and the horizontal plate 10 are rectangular and connected at the connection point through a rotating shaft. When the fixing groove plate 12 is sleeved between the connecting plate 11 and the horizontal plate 10, it can limit the connection point and prevent it from rotating.

[0025] Working Principle: When a strawberry grading and cleaning device is first used, the strawberries are cleaned inside the cleaning machine 1 and then conveyed to the top of the buffer belt 2 by an elevator. The buffer belt 2 then transports the fallen strawberries to the top of the grading machine 3 for grading. When the strawberries fall onto the surface of the buffer belt 2, a large number of strawberries falling downwards can easily damage the buffer belt 2. The juice from the damaged strawberries adheres to the surface of the buffer belt 2. As the buffer belt 2 continues to run, the scraper 6 rotates upwards on the rotating block 5 via a torsion spring, ensuring that the cleaning end of the scraper 6 remains in contact with the surface of the buffer belt 2 for cleaning. The scraper 6 effectively removes impurities and juice from the surface of the buffer belt 2. When the buffer belt 2 moves to the position of the sponge block 15, the sponge block 15, through the elastic force of the spring 8 and the cooperation of the support seat 13, will adhere to the surface of the buffer belt 2 to perform secondary cleaning of the residual water on the surface of the buffer belt 2. When it is necessary to disassemble and replace the sponge block 15, the user should slide the fixing groove block 12 outward to expose the connection between the connecting plate 11 and the horizontal plate 10. Then, the user should pull the sleeve 9 down on the outer wall of the vertical rod 7. When pulling, the spring 8 will be stretched. Then, after separating the sponge block 15 from the buffer belt 2, the support seat 13 will be rotated to rotate the sponge block 15 to a position that is easy to disassemble. Then, the sponge block 15 will be pulled outward. When pulling, the locking block 14 will be pulled out from the inside of the support seat 13, thereby disassembling and replacing the sponge block 15.

[0026] 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.
