[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0019] Example: See Figure 1-5 This utility model discloses a cleaning and drying device for freeze-drying fruit and vegetables, comprising a cleaning tank 1, a water inlet 2 connected to the center of the front end of the cleaning tank 1, a guide plate 3 fixedly mounted on the top surface of the cleaning tank 1, support feet vertically mounted around the bottom of the guide plate 3, and a drying box 4 fixedly mounted at an angle at the rear end of the top surface of the guide plate 3. A conveying assembly is provided inside the cleaning tank 1, and a transmission assembly is provided on the outside of the cleaning tank 1. A sliding strip opening is provided on the top surface of the guide plate 3, and a spray assembly is provided inside the sliding strip opening. Air supply assemblies are provided inside the cleaning tank 1 and the drying box 4. The modular design facilitates device maintenance and upgrades, improving practicality. The conveying assembly includes a chain stabilizing plate 5, which is fixedly mounted on both sides of the inner side of the cleaning tank 1. A chain 6 is fitted and abuts against the inner side of the chain stabilizing plate 5. A conveyor net 7 is installed and fixed between the strips 6. Baffles are vertically fixed at equal intervals on the conveyor net 7. The transmission component includes a motor 8, which is installed and fixed on one side of the rear end face of the cleaning tank 1. A drive pulley 9 is fixed to one side of the motor 8. A belt 10 is sleeved on the outer side of the drive pulley 9. The other side of the belt 10 is sleeved on the driven sprocket 11. The driven sprocket 11 is rotatably connected to the inclined surface of the guide plate 3. A guide wheel 12 is abutted on the outer side of the lower section of the chain 6. The guide wheel 12 is rotatably connected to both sides of the inner side of the cleaning tank 1. A guide sprocket 13 is sleeved at the front end of the chain 6. The guide sprocket 13 is rotatably connected to the cleaning tank 1. Through the cooperation of the conveying component and the transmission component, the device can easily drive the material to move and carry it out of the device, thus improving its practicality.

[0020] In this utility model, to solve the problem of excessive weight and dampness of materials after cleaning in existing equipment, the following technical solution is adopted: The spray assembly includes a guide slide 14, which is slidably connected to the top surface of the guide slide 3. A spray pipe 15 is installed and fixed on the guide slide 14, and both ends of the spray pipe 15 are connected to a water supply device. Multiple nozzles are opened below the spray pipe 15. The air supply assembly includes a blower 16, which is installed and fixed on one side of the rear end face of the cleaning tank 1. The blower 16 is connected downward to the bubble tube frame 17, which penetrates upward through the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 1 and is installed and fixed on the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 1. One side of the bubble tube frame 17 is connected to a drying tube frame 18, which is installed and fixed inside the drying box 4. Through the cooperation of the spray assembly and the air supply assembly, the device can easily tumble and spray the material to clean it, and then blow away the moisture, thus improving practicality.

[0021] Working principle: When using this utility model, firstly, power is supplied to all the equipment. Then, water is supplied to the washing tank 1 through the water supply port 2. After the water level reaches a certain height, the water supply stops. Then, the blower 16 and motor 8 are started. The blower 16 draws air and injects it into the washing tank 1 through the bubble tube frame 17, thereby forming bubbles. At the same time, air is supplied to the drying box 4 through the drying tube frame 18. Meanwhile, the motor 8 drives the driven sprocket 11 to rotate through the belt 10, thereby driving the chain 6 to rotate around the guide wheel 12 and the guide sprocket 13, thereby driving the conveyor net 7 to move in a cycle. At this time, fruits and vegetables are poured into the washing tank 1. The fruits and vegetables tumble under the push of the bubbles. At the same time, the spray pipe 15 sprays water to clean the part of the fruits and vegetables above the liquid surface. Driven by the conveyor net 7, they enter the drying box 4 and are dried under the high-speed airflow. Finally, they fall out of the device from the rear, completing the washing and drying work.
