Tableware includes sets and includes metal utensils, ceramic tableware, tea sets and wine sets, glassware, paper utensils, plastic utensils, as well as a wide variety of containers and hand tools with different uses.
[0003] When cleaning tableware after use, staff often use dishwashers. Since dishwashers clean tableware through a water circulation system, the water carrying food residue flows into a collection basket on the other side of the dishwasher. The collection basket filters the food residue. When there is a lot of food residue in the collection basket, it needs to be emptied. After the collection basket is lifted, the water carrying food residue flows into the interior of the dishwasher, causing blockage in the water circulation system. To address this, a tableware cleaning device has been proposed. Utility Model Content

[0023] 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.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-6As shown, a dishwashing utensil cleaning device includes a dishwasher body 1 and a collection frame 19. The dishwasher body 1 is a relatively mature existing technology. Its principle is that the water source inside the machine generates vibration and bubbles to achieve the cleaning effect. Therefore, this solution does not describe it in detail. Support plates 2 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the water outlet of the dishwasher body 1. The inner side of the support plates 2 is provided with a first sliding groove 3. A baffle 4 is slidably connected inside the first sliding groove 3. A fixed shaft 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle 4. A limit plate 18 is rotatably connected to the surface of the fixed shaft 17. Through the setting of the fixed shaft 17 and the limit plate 18, when the operator rotates the limit plate 18, the filter screen can be locked at different height positions, which enhances the structural stability. The first slide groove 3 has a second slide groove 5 inside, and a first slide plate 6 is slidably connected inside the second slide groove 5. One side of the first slide plate 6 is fixed to the baffle 4, and a connecting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the other side of the first slide plate 6. A limiting structure 8 for limiting the connecting plate 7 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 7. A third slide groove 10 is provided on the right side of the baffle 4, and a second slide plate 11 is slidably connected inside the third slide groove 10. A filter plate 12 is fixedly connected to the other side of the second slide plate 11. A second handle 15 is provided on the top of the filter plate 12, and an anti-slip pad 16 is laid on the surface of the second handle 15. The setting of the second handle 15 and the anti-slip pad 16 makes it easier for the operator to pull the filter plate 12 and increases the friction when the operator holds it, thus improving the ease of operation.
[0025] The limiting structure 8 includes an inner groove 81, a limiting plate 82, a spring 83, a limiting pin 84, and a limiting hole 85. The inner groove 81 is formed inside the connecting plate 7. The limiting plate 82 is slidably connected to the inside of the inner groove 81. The surface of the limiting pin 84 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 82. One end of the limiting pin 84 passes through the connecting plate 7 and is slidably connected to the inside of the inner groove 81. The spring 83 is sleeved on the surface of the limiting pin 84. Both ends of the spring 83 are fixed to the inner wall of the inner groove 81 and one side of the limiting plate 82, respectively. A first handle 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the limiting pin 84 away from the limiting hole 85. Through the setting of the limiting structure 8, when the operator needs to adjust the height of the baffle 4, the operator can pull the first handle 9 outward. At this time, the limiting pin 84 drives the limiting plate 82 to slide and compresses the spring 83. The spring 83 stores elastic potential energy. When the limiting pin 84 exits the limiting hole 85, it releases the lock on the baffle 4. The operator can manually move the baffle 4 up and down. The baffle 4 drives the connecting plate 7 and the limiting pin 84 to move synchronously through the first sliding plate 6. The limiting pin 84 will move with the baffle 4 to a new height position. When the baffle 4 moves to the target position, the first handle 9 can be released. At this time, the spring 83 releases the stored elastic potential energy and pushes the limiting plate 82 and the limiting pin 84 to move towards the limiting hole 85. Under the action of the elastic potential energy of the spring 83, the limiting pin 84 is reinserted into the limiting hole 85, thereby limiting the connecting plate 7 again.
[0026] The third slide groove 10 has a fourth slide groove 13 on both the front and rear sides. The second slide plate 11 has a third slide plate 14 fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides. The third slide plate 14 and the fourth slide groove 13 are slidably connected inside. The third slide plate 14 and the fourth slide groove 13 cooperate with each other to ensure that the filter plate 12 remains stable when sliding and avoids displacement.
[0027] The filter plate 12 is the same size as the baffle 4, and the length of the filter plate 12 is adapted to the inner wall of the dishwasher body 1. By setting the filter plate 12 to be the same size as the baffle 4, the staff can better collect the food residue inside the dishwasher body 1 and prevent the food residue from remaining inside the dishwasher body 1.
[0028] Working Principle: In use, first place the dishes to be washed inside the dishwasher body 1. The spray system inside the dishwasher body 1 will then activate and rinse the dishes. Since the dishwasher body 1 cleans the dishes through water circulation, the water flowing to the left side of the dishwasher body 1 filters food residue through the collection basket 19. When there is a lot of food residue in the collection basket 19, it needs to be emptied. At this time, the operator can pull the first handle 9 outwards, causing the limit pin 84 to slide along the limit plate 82 and compress the spring 83. The spring 83 will store elastic potential energy. When the limit pin 84 exits the limit hole 85, it releases the lock on the baffle 4. The operator can then manually move the baffle 4 downwards, causing the baffle 4 to move synchronously with the connecting plate 7 and the limit pin 84 via the first sliding plate 6. The limit pin 84 moves with the baffle 4 to a new height position until the baffle 4 blocks the water outlet. After that, the first handle 9 can be released. At this time, the spring 83 releases the stored elastic potential energy and pushes the limiting plate 82 and the limiting pin 84 to move towards the limiting hole 85. Under the action of the elastic potential energy of the spring 83, the limiting pin 84 is reinserted into the limiting hole 85, thereby limiting the connecting plate 7 again and fixing the baffle 4. This prevents the water source in the dishwasher body 1 from carrying the residue into the left side of the interior, causing the pipes in the water circulation system to be blocked. At the same time, the surface of the filter plate 12 on the right side of the baffle 4 will intercept food residue, preventing these food residues from entering the water circulation system and causing blockage or backflow into the interior of the dishwasher body 1. After the washing program is completed, the filter plate 12 can be pulled out along the third slide 10 through the second handle 15 for emptying the residue and rinsing with clean water. After cleaning, it is reinserted into the third slide 10. After the collection box 19 is emptied, the collection box 19 can be placed in the starting position, and the baffle 4 can be driven upward back to the starting position to facilitate the continued cleaning of the dishes.
