[0002] In modern agricultural production, post-harvest cleaning of vegetables is a crucial step in ensuring vegetable quality and food safety. As people's demands for the freshness and cleanliness of vegetables continue to increase, traditional manual cleaning methods are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of large-scale production and are gradually being replaced by various mechanized cleaning devices.

[0003] In the post-harvest processing of vegetables, ultrasonic cleaning technology can effectively remove dirt, pesticide residues, and other grime from the surface of vegetables by utilizing the cavitation effect generated by high-frequency vibration. However, in actual application, equipment maintenance, repair, and replacement of ultrasonic components require frequent installation and disassembly of the ultrasonic device. After repeated disassembly and assembly, the ultrasonic device and the cleaning equipment are prone to loosening, making it difficult to maintain a tight fit. This loosening leads to a significant reduction in ultrasonic wave propagation efficiency, greatly diminishing the cleaning effect and failing to meet the high-standard cleaning requirements of vegetables. At the same time, the abnormal vibrations generated by the loosening can accelerate component wear, causing equipment instability and significantly increasing the equipment failure rate and maintenance costs.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model is a cleaning device for post-harvest processing of vegetables, comprising:

[0028] The cleaning component includes a cleaning body 100, an ultrasonic transducer 101, and a top plate 102. The ultrasonic transducer 101 is installed at the lower part of the cleaning body 100, and the top plate 102 is disposed at the top of the cleaning body 100.

[0029] The tight-fitting component includes a vertical plate 200, a limiting frame 201, a support bar 202, a guide rod 203, and a guide ring 205. The guide rod 203 is located at the bottom of the top plate 102, and the guide ring 205 is movably connected to the outside of the guide rod 203. The vertical plate 200 is fixed to one end of the bottom of the guide ring 205. The limiting frame 201 is located at the lower part of the cleaning body 100, and one side of the guide ring 205 is fixed to the outside of the limiting frame 201. The support bar 202 is fixed between multiple limiting frames 201.

[0030] The ultrasonic transducer 101 is embedded between two clamping frames 206, and the position of the limiting frame 201 is controlled by the movement of the guide ring 205 outside the guide rod 203. When the limiting frame 201 moves to the upper part and is embedded in the bottom of the ultrasonic transducer 101, a tight and stable fit can be formed, creating a multi-layer limiting and fixing structure. This ensures that the ultrasonic transducer 101 and the cleaning device are always tightly connected, greatly enhancing the stability of the ultrasonic transducer 101 installation and providing a reliable guarantee for the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0031] The limiting frame 201 is embedded in the bottom of the ultrasonic device 101, and the bottom of the guide rod 203 is fixed with the limiting base 204.

[0032] When the guide ring 205 moves outside the guide rod 203, the bottom limiting base 204 can play a limiting role to prevent the guide ring 205 from slipping out.

[0033] It also includes a fixing component, which includes a side plate 300, an internal threaded ring 301, a threaded rod 302 and a handle 303. The side plate 300 is fixed to both sides of the outer surface of the top plate 102, the internal threaded ring 301 is disposed on one side of the side plate 300, the threaded rod 302 is disposed in the middle of the internal threaded ring 301, and the handle 303 is rotatably connected to one side of the threaded rod 302.

[0034] After the limiting frame 201 is tightly embedded in the bottom of the ultrasonic device 101, the handle 303 can be rotated to drive the threaded rod 302 to rotate, so that the threaded rod 302 is fixed inside the threaded hole 304, thereby fixing the position of the limiting frame 201.

[0035] A threaded hole 304 is provided on one side of the guide ring 205, and the other side of the threaded rod 302 is threadedly connected to the inside of the threaded hole 304. A clamping frame 206 is fixed at the bottom of the cleaning device, and a rubber inner pad 207 is bonded to the inner side of the clamping frame 206.

[0036] The clamp 206 will be embedded in the upper part of both sides of the ultrasonic device 101, while the rubber pad 207 will contact the ultrasonic device 101.

[0037] The cleaning component also includes a bottom frame 103, which is fitted onto the bottom of the cleaning body 100 and surrounds the outside of the ultrasonic device 101.

[0038] The bottom frame 103 is fitted onto the bottom of the cleaning body 100, and the baffle 400 can be installed and removed by means of installation and removal.

[0039] Working principle: First, the bottom frame 103 is fitted onto the bottom of the cleaning body 100, and the bottom frame 103 is connected to the cleaning body 100 in a removable manner, facilitating the installation and removal of the baffle 400, and providing convenient conditions for the subsequent installation and maintenance of the ultrasonic device 101. When installing the ultrasonic device 101, it is embedded between the two clamping frames 206. At this time, the rubber inner gasket 207 will be in close contact with the ultrasonic device 101. The rubber inner gasket 207 not only plays a buffering role, preventing the ultrasonic device 101 from being damaged by hard impacts during installation, but also fills the small gaps between the ultrasonic device 101 and the clamping frames 206, enhancing the tightness of the installation. Then, the guide ring 205 guides the guide rod. The position of the limiting frame 201 is controlled by the external movement of handle 303. When the limiting frame 201 moves to the upper part and is embedded in the bottom of the ultrasonic device 101, the handle 303 is turned to drive the threaded rod 302 to rotate. Since the threaded rod 302 and the threaded hole 304 cooperate with each other, as the threaded rod 302 rotates, it gradually fixes itself inside the threaded hole 304, thereby fixing the position of the limiting frame 201. This ensures a tight and stable fit between the ultrasonic device 101 and the cleaning device. Compared with traditional installation methods, the structure of this utility model can effectively prevent loosening between the ultrasonic device 101 and the cleaning device even after multiple installation and disassembly operations required for equipment maintenance, repair, or component replacement. This provides a reliable guarantee for the long-term stable operation of the equipment, ensuring that the ultrasonic device 101 always maintains a stable working state during the operation of the cleaning device, thus improving the overall performance and service life of the cleaning device.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, further includes:

[0041] The shielding component includes a baffle frame 400, a rubber block 401, and a lower positioning groove 403. The baffle frame 400 is movably connected to the inside of the cleaning body 100. The rubber block 401 is set on the top of the top plate 102. The lower positioning groove 403 is opened at the lower part of the outer surface of the baffle frame 400, and the rubber block 401 is snapped into the inside of the lower positioning groove 403.

[0042] The baffle 400 can extend or retract on the upper part of the washing body 100. When washing harvested vegetables, the baffle 400 can block the water splashed during vibration.

[0043] An upper positioning groove 402 is provided on the upper part of the outer surface of the baffle frame 400, and the rubber block 401 is snapped into the inside of the upper positioning groove 402;

[0044] When the baffle 400 moves to the upper part, the rubber block 401 is engaged inside the lower positioning groove 403. When the baffle 400 moves to the lower part, the rubber block 401 is engaged inside the upper positioning groove 402.

[0045] Working principle: The baffle frame 400 is connected to the upper part of the cleaning body 100 in an extendable or telescopic manner. When the position of the baffle frame 400 needs to be adjusted, it is pushed or pulled by external force to move it in a predetermined direction. When the baffle frame 400 moves upward to the upper position, the rubber block 401 will engage in the lower positioning groove 403. At this time, the engagement between the rubber block 401 and the lower positioning groove 403 not only restricts the baffle frame 400 from moving further upward, but also forms a stable fixed state, keeping the baffle frame 400 in this position and providing stable support to block water splashing from above. When the baffle frame 400 moves downward to the lower position, the rubber block 401 engages in the upper positioning groove 402, thus limiting and fixing the baffle frame 400 and ensuring its stability in the lower position. When washing harvested vegetables, the equipment will vibrate and cause water to splash. At this time, the baffle frame 400, in a suitable position, can fully play its blocking role. Whether in the upper or lower position, its position can be adjusted according to actual needs to block the splashing water in a specific area, effectively preventing water from splashing everywhere, reducing waste of cleaning solution, maintaining a clean working environment, and improving the standardization and safety of the vegetable washing process.
