The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0027] Example

[0028] Reference Figures 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides an adjustable fruit and vegetable spraying and washing device, including,

[0029] The support mechanism 100 includes a support frame 110 and a rotating cleaning assembly 120 disposed in the inner cavity of the support frame 110.

[0030] The spraying mechanism 200 includes a fixing plate 210 fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the support frame 110, a reciprocating drive assembly 220 disposed on the outer side of the support frame 110, a rotating rod 230 rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the support frame 110, a spraying plate 240 fixedly installed on one side of the rotating rod 230, and a connecting plate 250 fixedly installed on the other side of the rotating rod 230.

[0031] The modular structure of fruit and vegetable cleaning is achieved through the coordinated design of the supporting mechanism 100 and the spraying mechanism 200. The supporting frame 110 provides a stable foundation, and the rotating cleaning component 120 ensures that the fruits and vegetables are rolled evenly during the cleaning process. The spraying mechanism 200 drives the rotating rod 230 to swing through the reciprocating drive component 220, so that the spraying plate 240 and the connecting plate 250 can dynamically adjust the spraying angle to adapt to the cleaning needs of fruits and vegetables of different shapes, improve the cleaning coverage and reduce water waste.

[0032] Specifically, the spraying mechanism 200 also includes a conveying rod 260 rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the support frame 110, a bushing 270 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the conveying rod 260, a limiting sleeve 280 fixedly installed on the outside of the bushing 270, and a spray head 290 fixedly installed at the bottom of the conveying rod 260.

[0033] The installation stability and adjustability of the spray head 290 are optimized by adding a conveyor rod 260, a bushing 270, and a limiting sleeve 280. The cooperation between the bushing 270 and the limiting sleeve 280 can prevent the conveyor rod 260 from shifting, ensuring the precise positioning of the spray head 290 in reciprocating motion. At the same time, the bottom fixing design of the spray head 290 enhances the concentration of water flow impact force, which is especially suitable for deep cleaning of root vegetables and fruits.

[0034] Furthermore, the reciprocating drive assembly 220 includes an electric telescopic rod 221 fixedly installed on the outside of the support frame 110, a connecting block 222 fixedly installed on the end of the electric telescopic rod 221, a rotating shaft 223 hinged to the outside of the connecting block 222, and a reciprocating rod 224 rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 223. The reciprocating drive assembly 220 also includes a limiting shaft 225 hinged to the outside of the reciprocating rod 224, a disc 226 rotatably installed on the end of the limiting shaft 225, and a positioning shaft 227 fixedly installed on the other end of the limiting shaft 225. The outside of the disc 226 is rotatably connected to one end of the conveying rod 260.

[0035] The reciprocating drive assembly 220 adopts an articulated transmission structure of electric telescopic rod 221, rotating shaft 223, and reciprocating rod 224, realizing the automation and high responsiveness of spray angle adjustment. The linear motion of electric telescopic rod 221 is converted into the swing of reciprocating rod 224 through connecting block 222. The structure is simple and the power transmission is efficient, making it suitable for long-term continuous operation and reducing the risk of mechanical failure. The linkage design of limit shaft 225, disc 226, and positioning shaft 227 further improves the accuracy of reciprocating motion. The rotational connection between disc 226 and conveying rod 260 can buffer impact force and avoid rigid vibration. Positioning shaft 227 limits the reciprocating stroke to prevent the spray head 290 from swinging beyond the range, which protects the equipment and ensures the standardization of cleaning operations.

[0036] Preferably, the rotary cleaning assembly 120 includes a main shaft 121 fixedly mounted on the outside of the support frame 110, a disc body 122 fixedly mounted on the output end of the main shaft 121, and a drive shaft 123 fixedly mounted on the other end of the main shaft 121. The rotary cleaning assembly 120 also includes a nozzle 124 fixedly mounted on the outside of the disc body 122, a delivery port 125 opened in the inner cavity of the nozzle 124, and an anti-clogging threaded plate 126 rotatably mounted in the inner cavity of the delivery port 125.

[0037] The rotary cleaning assembly 120 drives the disc 122 and drive shaft 123 to rotate synchronously via the main shaft 121, causing the fruits and vegetables to continuously tumble during the cleaning process, avoiding dead corners in local cleaning. The rotary design of the disc 122, combined with the dynamic water flow of the spray mechanism 200, forms a composite cleaning mode of mechanical tumbling and multi-directional spraying, which significantly improves cleaning efficiency. The anti-clogging threaded plate 126 in the inner cavity of the conveying port 125 rotates automatically under high-speed water flow, peeling off attached impurities and keeping the spray holes unobstructed. At the same time, the fixed installation of the nozzle 124 ensures the stability of the water flow direction, making it suitable for continuous cleaning operations of fruits and vegetables with high mud and sand content.

[0038] Furthermore, the supporting mechanism 100 also includes a drainage slot 130 opened at the bottom of the support frame 110, and a connecting pipe head 140 fixedly installed on the outside of the support frame 110. The end of the connecting pipe head 140 is fixedly connected to the end of the conveying rod 260 and they are interconnected.

[0039] Among them, the drainage outlet 130 quickly discharges sewage to prevent secondary pollution; the connection design between the connecting pipe head 140 and the conveying rod 260 enables seamless water supply.

[0040] In use, firstly, the fruits and vegetables to be cleaned are conveyed into the rotating cleaning assembly 120 inside the support frame 110. The main shaft 121 drives the disc 122 to rotate, making the fruits and vegetables roll evenly. At the same time, the reciprocating drive assembly 220 drives the reciprocating rod 224 to swing through the electric telescopic rod 221, which in turn causes the conveying rod 260 to drive the spray head 290 to perform multi-angle swing spraying, achieving all-round cleaning. The anti-clogging threaded plate 126 inside the spray head 124 automatically rotates under the action of high-speed water flow to prevent clogging. The wastewater after cleaning is discharged through the drain outlet 130, while the connecting pipe head 140 continuously provides clean water to the system.

[0041] In summary, through the collaborative innovative design of the bearing mechanism 100 and the spraying mechanism 200, efficient and intelligent fruit and vegetable cleaning is achieved. The support frame 110 and the rotating cleaning component 120 form a stable bearing platform. The disc 122 drives the fruits and vegetables to tumble. Combined with the dynamic angle adjustment function of the spraying mechanism 200, the electric telescopic rod 221 drives the reciprocating rod 224 and the linkage conveying rod 260, which can accurately adapt to the cleaning needs of fruits and vegetables of different shapes. The nozzle 124 has a built-in anti-clogging thread plate 126 to ensure smooth water flow, which is suitable for batch cleaning of root vegetables with high mud and sand and fragile berries.
