Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn kernel cleaning technology, and more specifically, to a quick-frozen corn kernel cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Quick-frozen corn is made by processing freshly harvested corn, including quick-freezing the kernels, so that people can enjoy corn out of season. Before quick-freezing, the corn kernels need to be washed to remove soil and other impurities from their surface, ensuring proper processing.

[0003] Traditional washing devices typically involve directly placing corn kernels into the washing tank and stirring them to achieve a washing effect. However, this method makes it difficult to collect the corn kernels in a concentrated manner, which necessitates subsequent filtration using external equipment, which is quite troublesome.

[0004] Furthermore, it lacks a drying mechanism, which prevents the corn kernels from being quickly removed after washing, thus reducing the overall efficiency of the corn kernel washing process. Utility Model Content

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a quick-frozen corn kernel washing device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. By setting up a top plate, motor, rack and pinion, and lifting plate, the user can control the motor to move the rack and pinion, causing the lifting plate to lower the storage box until it is immersed in the water tank. At this time, water will enter the storage box through the first and second water inlets. Then, the ultrasonic component is turned on to complete the cleaning effect. After cleaning, the motor can be reversed to raise the lifting plate and the storage box, so as to facilitate the subsequent collection of corn kernels. It is convenient to use.

By setting up a collection hopper, sliding column, limiting sleeve and ejection spring, the user can move the limiting sleeve outward to disengage it from the limiting groove on the collection hopper. At this time, the collection hopper can be separated from the storage box through the avoidance hole. Since the perimeter of the collection hopper is equipped with a baffle, the corn kernels will be located in the collection hopper due to the limitation of the baffle, making it convenient to collect the material.

[0020] 3. By setting up heating wires, fans, and air outlet pipes, after the storage box is removed from the water tank, the heat generated by the heating wires can be blown into the air outlet pipes by turning on the fan and blown out from the top to dry the corn kernels. This facilitates quick retrieval of the corn kernels. In addition, by setting up a filter screen, the blown air can be cleaner to ensure the overall hygiene of the corn kernels.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 A quick-frozen corn kernel washing device includes a water tank 1, an ultrasonic component at the bottom of the water tank 1, support rods 2 fixedly mounted on both sides of the water tank 1, a top plate 3 fixedly mounted on the upper end of the support rods 2, a motor 4 mounted on the upper surface of the top plate 3, a rack 5 movably mounted in the middle of the top plate 3, a lifting plate 6 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the rack 5, both ends of the lifting plate 6 being slidably mounted to the support rods 2, a gear 7 mounted at the output end of the motor 4, the gear 7 meshing with the rack 5, a storage mechanism at the lower end of the lifting plate 6, the storage mechanism including a storage box 8 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the lifting plate 6, and a feeding pipe 26 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the storage box 8 at the upper end.

[0031] In this embodiment, a first water inlet hole 9 is provided on the outer wall of the storage box 8. Multiple first water inlets 9 are provided and evenly distributed. A collection hopper 10 is movably provided at the lower end of the storage box 8. The collection hopper 10 can cover the lower end of the storage box 8. A second water inlet hole 11 is provided on the collection hopper 10. Sliding columns 12 are fixedly provided on both sides of the storage box 8. A limiting sleeve 13 is slidably provided on the outer wall of the sliding column 12. A corresponding avoidance hole 14 is provided on both sides of the collection hopper 10. The sliding column 12 can enter the interior of the avoidance hole 14. A limiting groove 15 is provided on the outer end of the avoidance hole 14 and on the outer wall of the collection hopper 10. The limiting sleeve 13 is located inside the limiting groove 15. A limiting block 24 is fixedly provided at one end of the sliding column 12. An ejection spring 25 is fixedly provided between the limiting block 24 and the limiting sleeve 13.

[0032] More specifically, the user can control the motor 4 to make the gear 7 drive the rack 5 to move, so that the lifting plate 6 drives the storage box 8 to descend until it is immersed in the water tank 1. At this time, water will enter the storage box 8 through the first water inlet 9 and the second water inlet 11. Then the ultrasonic component is turned on to complete the cleaning effect. After cleaning, the motor 4 can be controlled to reverse so that the lifting plate 6 drives the storage box 8 to rise. When picking up the material, the limiting sleeve 13 can be moved outward to disengage it from the limiting groove 15 on the collection hopper 10. At this time, the collection hopper 10 and the storage box 8 can be separated through the avoidance hole 14. Since the perimeter of the collection hopper 10 is provided with a baffle, the corn kernels will be located in the collection hopper 10 due to the limitation of the baffle, so as to achieve the effect of centralized picking up the material.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As an embodiment for drying the washed corn kernels: a heating box 16 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the water tank 1. A heating wire 17 is installed inside the heating box 16. A fan 18 is installed at the bottom of the heating box 16. The fan 18 is located at the lower end of the heating wire 17. An air outlet pipe 19 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the heating box 16. An installation frame 20 is fixedly installed at the other end of the air outlet pipe 19. A filter screen 21 is movably installed inside the installation frame 20. Both ends of the filter screen 21 are fixedly installed to the installation frame 20 with screws.

[0034] Specifically, after the storage box 8 is removed from the water tank 1, the heat generated by the heating wire 17 can be blown into the air outlet duct 19 by turning on the fan 18 and blown out from the top of the duct to achieve the effect of drying the corn kernels. Furthermore, by setting the filter screen 21, the blown air can be cleaner to ensure the overall hygiene of the corn kernels.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 As a further implementation method for discharging wastewater: a drain pipe 22 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 1, and a valve 23 is provided on the drain pipe 22.

[0036] Specifically, users can open valve 23 to replace the water inside water tank 1 for better cleaning results.

[0037] In summary, when using the entire equipment: first, the corn kernels to be cleaned can be added to the storage tank 8 through the feeding pipe 26. Then, the motor 4 is controlled to move the gear 7, which drives the rack 5, causing the lifting plate 6 to lower the storage tank 8 until it is immersed in the water tank 1. At this time, water will enter the storage tank 8 through the first water inlet 9 and the second water inlet 11. Then, the ultrasonic component is turned on to complete the cleaning operation. After cleaning, the motor 4 can be reversed to raise the lifting plate 6 and the storage tank 8. After the storage tank 8 is removed from the water tank 1, the fan 18 can be turned on to... The heat generated by the heating wire 17 is blown into the air outlet duct 19 and out from the top to dry the corn kernels. The filter screen 21 makes the blown air cleaner to ensure the overall hygiene of the corn kernels. When picking up the material, the limiting sleeve 13 can be moved outward to disengage it from the limiting groove 15 on the collecting hopper 10. At this time, the collecting hopper 10 can be separated from the storage box 8 through the avoidance hole 14. Since the collecting hopper 10 has a baffle around its perimeter, the corn kernels will be located in the collecting hopper 10 due to the baffle's limitation, achieving the effect of centralized picking up the material.
