Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of garlic clove cleaning devices, specifically a garlic clove cleaning device for garlic processing. Background Technology
[0002] Garlic, also known as garlic or wild garlic, was called "hu" in ancient times. It has a unique flavor and can satisfy people's dietary desires in many ways. There are many ways to eat garlic: it can be eaten raw, mixed, or stir-fried. It can also be used as a seasoning and processed into a variety of foods. It is generally processed into garlic powder, garlic slices, garlic oil, and garlic sauce. It can also be processed into sweet garlic, vinegar garlic, and salted garlic.
[0003] During garlic processing, after the garlic cloves are separated and peeled, they need to be rinsed with clean water to remove a transparent film on the garlic flesh. Bubble washing machine is one of the commonly used cleaning equipment for garlic cloves. The principle of this equipment is to use the water in the tank of the equipment box to form a circulation through a high-pressure water pump. There is also a conveyor belt or chain plate driven by a conveyor motor in the box. When the raw material passes through the box, the vortex blower will introduce air into the bottom of the tank of the box to form bubbles. The bubbles drive the water flow to turn over, thereby causing the raw material to roll. After cleaning, the conveying device will transport and lift the raw material out of the tank of the box.
[0004] When cleaning garlic cloves in existing bubble washing machines, the garlic cloves are directly introduced into the water tank, and there is a situation where the stubborn transparent film that adheres to them cannot be washed off by the water flow. In order to avoid this situation, a garlic clove cleaning device for garlic processing is provided. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a garlic clove cleaning device for garlic processing in order to solve the problems mentioned above.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a garlic clove cleaning device for garlic processing, comprising a bubble cleaning machine consisting of a water tank, a conveyor belt, a bubble tube, and a water spray pipe. The conveyor belt is installed inside the water tank via a sprocket drive. The bubble tube and the water spray pipe are installed on one side of the water tank, with the bubble tube distributed below the water spray pipe and communicating with the bottom of the water tank. The water spray pipe extends to the inside of the water tank and is located above the water surface inside the water tank. A feeding component extending above the conveyor belt is provided at the front end of the water tank. The feeding component is used to feed garlic cloves and perform preliminary friction cleaning on the garlic cloves.
[0007] The feeding assembly includes a rolling conveyor unit and a drive unit;
[0008] The rolling conveying unit is used to realize the rolling conveying of garlic cloves, and at the same time realize the friction and film removal operation of garlic cloves.
[0009] The drive unit is used to provide support and rotational driving force for the rotation of the rolling conveyor unit.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the rolling conveying unit includes a roller, a friction roller, a driven gear, a fixed internal gear ring plate, and a guide plate;
[0011] The rollers are distributed on the inner side of the front end of the water tank and extend above the conveyor belt. Multiple friction rollers are provided, and the multiple friction rollers are distributed in a ring on the inner side of the rollers and are rotatably connected to the ring plate at the front end of the rollers through a rotating shaft. The guide plate extends obliquely downward from the outside of the front end of the water tank, passes through the front end of the rollers to the middle area of the multiple friction rollers, and is used to guide the garlic cloves to the middle of the multiple friction rollers.
[0012] The rotating shaft of the friction roller extends through the outside of the drum and is fixedly connected to the driven gear. The fixed internal gear ring plate is distributed on the outside of multiple driven gears and meshes with multiple driven gears. The two sides of the fixed internal gear ring plate are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water tank. When the drum drives multiple friction rollers and driven gears to rotate circumferentially, the friction rollers and driven gears rotate under the limiting action of the fixed internal gear ring plate. This is used to realize the flipping and conveying of garlic cloves. At the same time, the rotating friction roller is used to perform friction and film removal operation on the garlic cloves between the two friction rollers.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the drive unit includes a fixed ring, a toothed ring, a support roller, a support frame, a drive motor, and a drive gear;
[0014] Two fixing rings are provided, and the two fixing rings are symmetrically fixed to the outside of the roller. The toothed rings are fixed to the outside of the roller and distributed between the two fixing rings.
[0015] The support rollers are arranged in a ring around the fixed ring, with three rollers in a circular arrangement. Two of the support rollers are fixed to the inner walls of the water tank on both sides, and one support roller is located above the fixed ring and fixedly installed with the support frame. The support frame is fixed to the top of the water tank.
[0016] The drive motor is fixed to the top of a support frame, and the drive gear is fixed to the output end of the drive motor and meshes with the gear ring.
[0017] As a further improvement of this utility model: multiple bubble tubes and water spray pipes are arranged along the long side of the water tank, and one of the water spray pipes near the roller is connected to a spray pipe extending to the inside of the roller.
[0018] As a further improvement of this invention, the horizontal height of the friction rollers distributed at the bottom is lower than the water level inside the tank.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] By setting up a feeding component, the rotating friction roller can cause the garlic cloves distributed between the two friction rollers at the lower position to be tumbled. Friction is generated between the garlic cloves and between the garlic cloves and the friction roller. This friction can cause the transparent film on the surface of the garlic cloves to fall off. At the same time, when the friction roller rotates to the higher position, the garlic cloves located between the two friction rollers will fall off under their own weight. By repeating this process, the film removal operation of the garlic cloves can be achieved from all directions, which can effectively improve the cleaning and film removal effect of garlic cloves.

[0025] 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.
[0026] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment of the present invention, a garlic clove cleaning device for garlic processing includes a bubble cleaning machine 1 consisting of a water tank 101, a conveyor belt 102, a bubble tube 103, and a water spray pipe 104. The conveyor belt 102 is installed inside the water tank 101 via a sprocket drive. The bubble tube 103 and the water spray pipe 104 are installed on one side of the water tank 101, with the bubble tube 103 distributed below the water spray pipe 104 and communicating with the bottom of the inner side of the water tank 101. The water spray pipe 104 extends to the inner side of the water tank 101 and is located above the water surface inside the water tank 101. A feeding component 2 is provided at the front end of the water tank 101, extending above the conveyor belt 102. The feeding component 2 is used to feed the garlic cloves and perform preliminary friction cleaning on the garlic cloves.
[0027] The feeding assembly 2 includes a rolling conveyor unit and a drive unit;
[0028] The rolling conveyor unit is used to realize the rolling conveying of garlic cloves, and at the same time realize the friction and film removal operation of garlic cloves;
[0029] The drive unit is used to provide support and rotational driving force for the rotation of the rolling conveyor unit;
[0030] The rolling conveyor unit includes a roller 201, a friction roller 208, a driven gear 209, a fixed internal gear ring plate 210, and a guide plate 211;
[0031] Rollers 201 are distributed on the inner side of the front end of the water tank 101 and extend above the conveyor belt 102. Multiple friction rollers 208 are provided. The multiple friction rollers 208 are distributed in a ring on the inner side of the rollers 201 and are rotatably connected to the annular plate at the front end of the rollers 201 through a rotating shaft. The guide plate 211 extends inclined downward from the outside of the front end of the water tank 101, passes through the front end of the rollers 201 to the middle area of the multiple friction rollers 208, and is used to guide the garlic cloves to the middle of the multiple friction rollers 208.
[0032] The rotating shaft of the friction roller 208 passes through the outside of the drum 201 and is fixedly connected to the driven gear 209. The fixed internal gear ring plate 210 is distributed on the outside of the multiple driven gears 209 and meshes with the multiple driven gears 209. The two sides of the fixed internal gear ring plate 210 are fixedly connected to the inner wall side of the water tank 101. When the drum 201 drives the multiple friction rollers 208 and driven gears 209 to rotate circumferentially, the friction rollers 208 and driven gears 209 rotate under the limiting action of the fixed internal gear ring plate 210. This is used to realize the flipping and conveying of garlic cloves. At the same time, the rotating friction roller 208 is used to perform friction and film removal operation on the garlic cloves between the two friction rollers 208.
[0033] The drive unit includes a fixed ring 202, a toothed ring 203, a support roller 204, a support frame 205, a drive motor 206, and a drive gear 207;
[0034] There are two fixing rings 202, which are symmetrically fixed to the outside of the roller 201. The toothed ring 203 is fixed to the outside of the roller 201 and distributed between the two fixing rings 202.
[0035] Three support rollers 204 are arranged in a ring around the fixing ring 202. Two support rollers 204 are fixed to the inner wall of the water tank 101 on both sides, and one support roller 204 is distributed above the fixing ring 202 and fixedly installed with the support frame 205. The support frame 205 is fixed to the top of the water tank 101.
[0036] The drive motor 206 is fixed to the top of a support frame 205, and the drive gear 207 is fixed to the output end of the drive motor 206 and meshes with the gear ring 203;
[0037] Multiple bubble tubes 103 and water spray tubes 104 are arranged along the long side of the water tank 101, and one water spray tube 104 near the roller 201 is connected to a spray tube 105 extending to the inside of the roller 201.
[0038] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the water spray pipe 104 and the bubble pipe are connected to the water pump and the vortex fan respectively through external pipelines.
[0039] The operating principle for washing garlic cloves is as follows:
[0040] First, the water pump and vortex fan are started simultaneously. The water pump draws water out of the water tank 101 and sprays it out through the water spray pipe 104 and the spray pipe 105. The vortex fan runs and inputs air into the bottom of the water tank 101 through the bubble pipe 103 to form bubbles. The bubbles drive the water flow to tumble.
[0041] Next, the garlic cloves to be washed are poured onto the guide plate 211. The garlic cloves slide down the inclined surface of the guide plate 211 into the inside of the roller 201 and come into contact with the friction roller 208. At the same time, the drive motor 206 is started, and the drive motor 206 drives the drive gear 207 to rotate. The drive gear 207 drives the gear ring 203, the roller 201, and the fixed ring 202 to rotate as a whole (it should be noted that the support roller 204 rotates passively, providing support and limit for the rotation of the fixed ring 202). The roller 201 drives multiple friction rollers 208 and driven gear 209 to rotate circumferentially. The driven gear 209 rotates under the limit of the fixed internal gear ring plate 210, thereby realizing the rotation of multiple friction rollers 208.
[0042] The rotating friction roller 208 causes the garlic cloves distributed between the two friction rollers 208 at the lower position to be tumbled. Friction is generated between the garlic cloves and between the garlic cloves and the friction rollers 208. This friction can cause the transparent film on the surface of the garlic cloves to fall off. (It should be noted that the surface of the friction roller 208 is covered with a brush.) At the same time, when the friction roller 208 rotates to the higher position, the garlic cloves located between the two friction rollers 208 will fall off under their own weight. By repeating this process, the film removal operation of the garlic cloves can be achieved from all directions.
[0043] Finally, the garlic cloves that have been de-filmed by friction fall into the water tank 101 through the rear end of the roller 201. At this time, the garlic cloves are fully separated from the film under the impact of the surging water flow, achieving a good cleaning effect. The cleaned garlic cloves are then carried to the next process by the running conveyor belt 102.
[0044] Please refer to this carefully. Figures 1-4 The friction rollers 208 at the bottom are at a horizontal height lower than the water level inside the tank 101.
[0045] In this embodiment, it should be noted that a baffle is fixed at the front end of the water tank 101 and the conveyor belt 102. This baffle is located below the roller 201 and is used to block the garlic cloves that fall into the area of the conveyor belt 102 to prevent the garlic cloves from flowing back to the area below the roller 201.
[0046] By placing the friction rollers 208 at the bottom at a height lower than the water level inside the water tank 101, a certain water level is maintained in the area between the two lower friction rollers 208. This causes the garlic cloves to tumble in the water-containing area, effectively reducing the friction temperature of the garlic cloves. Simultaneously, the water helps to better separate the film from the garlic cloves. Furthermore, the downward spraying of water from the spray pipe 105 allows the water inside the roller 101 to flow towards the conveyor belt 102, thus conveying the film and garlic cloves together out of the roller 201. The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
