Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sea cucumber cleaning, and in particular to a high-efficiency sea cucumber cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Cleaning is a crucial step in sea cucumber processing. Living in the marine environment, sea cucumbers accumulate a large amount of mud, algae, microorganisms, and other impurities on their surface. These deposits not only affect the appearance and quality of the sea cucumbers, reducing their market value, but may also carry pathogens and harmful substances, posing a potential threat to consumers' health. Furthermore, if cleaning is not thorough, these impurities can breed bacteria during subsequent processing and storage, causing the sea cucumbers to spoil and affecting their shelf life and quality stability.

[0003] Existing sea cucumber cleaning equipment generally suffers from a serious problem when handling large quantities of sea cucumbers: excessive accumulation of sea cucumbers prevents those at the bottom from being thoroughly cleaned. During the cleaning process, when a large number of sea cucumbers are placed into the equipment, they are compressed and piled together due to gravity and the limitations of the equipment structure. The sea cucumbers at the bottom are tightly pressed down by those above, making it difficult for water and cleaning tools to reach their surface, thus preventing the effective removal of impurities from their bodies.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a high-efficiency sea cucumber cleaning device. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a high-efficiency sea cucumber cleaning device to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

The front and rear ends of the cleaning cylinder are respectively rotatably connected in the fixing ring, and the fixing ring is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the shell. A spiral blade in a spiral shape is fixedly disposed in the cleaning cylinder.

[0008] The water spray assembly includes a first crossbar disposed on the front side of the cleaning cylinder and a second crossbar disposed on the rear side of the cleaning cylinder. The first and second crossbars are fixedly connected to the housing.

[0011] Furthermore, the cleaning cylinder is also equipped with a cleaning assembly, which includes a third motor fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the housing, a vertical rod fixedly mounted at the bottom of the second crossbar, and a rotating shaft with one end rotatably connected to the vertical rod and the other end rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing. The rotating shaft passes through the cleaning cylinder and is located below the water spray assembly. Multiple brushes are evenly fixed on the circumference of the rotating shaft.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the housing is provided with multiple vortex components below the cleaning cylinder. The vortex components include a fourth motor fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer wall of the housing, a vertical shaft fixedly installed on the output shaft of the fourth motor and extending into the housing, and a spiral stirring plate fixedly installed on the outer wall of the vertical shaft.

[0013] Furthermore, the vortex assembly also includes a bubble assembly, which includes an air pump, a jet pipe, and a connecting pipe. The air pump is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer wall of the housing, and the jet pipe is connected to the air pump through the connecting pipe. The end of the jet pipe extends into the housing.

[0014] The jet pipes are arranged symmetrically on both sides of the vertical axis in two sets.

[0015] Furthermore, a water outlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the housing.

[0016] Furthermore, a shielding ring is fixedly provided at the open end of the cleaning cylinder.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in light of the specific circumstances.

[0034] The following will refer to the appendix. Figures 1 to 6 The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0035] Overall, this utility model relates to a high-efficiency sea cucumber cleaning device, including a shell 1 with an internal cavity, a cleaning cylinder 2 rotatably disposed within the shell 1 via a fixing ring 5, inner holes 201 evenly distributed around the periphery of the cleaning cylinder 2, a power assembly disposed on the shell 1 for driving the cleaning cylinder 2 to rotate, and a water spray assembly disposed within the shell 1. The front and rear ends of the cleaning cylinder 2 are rotatably connected within the fixing ring 5, and the fixing ring 5 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the shell 1. A spiral blade 202 is fixedly disposed inside the cleaning cylinder 2. The water spray assembly includes a first crossbar 3 disposed on the front side of the cleaning cylinder 2 and a second crossbar 301 disposed on the rear side of the cleaning cylinder 2. The first crossbar 3 and the second crossbar 301 are connected to the shell 1. 1. Fixed connection: A first rotating column 302, a second rotating column 303, and a third rotating column 304 are arranged sequentially between the first horizontal bar 3 and the second horizontal bar 301. Water pipes 305 are fixedly provided at the bottom of the first rotating column 302, the second rotating column 303, and the third rotating column 304. Each water pipe 305 has a nozzle 306 at its bottom and is connected to the outside. Gears 308 are fixedly fitted on the front and rear side walls of the first rotating column 302, the second rotating column 303, and the third rotating column 304. The gears 308 mesh with each other. A first motor 307 is fixedly provided on the first horizontal bar 3. The output shaft of the first motor 307 is fixedly connected to the end of the second rotating column 303.

[0036] In this embodiment, the rotation of the cleaning cylinder 2 and the arrangement of the spiral blades 202 cause the sea cucumbers to continuously tumble and move within the cleaning cylinder 2. Simultaneously, the water spray assembly provides all-around, multi-angle water rinsing, effectively removing impurities such as mud, algae, and microorganisms attached to the sea cucumbers' surfaces, thus improving cleaning efficiency. The spiral blades 202 guide the sea cucumbers forward in a spiral motion within the cleaning cylinder 2, ensuring that each sea cucumber experiences a similar movement trajectory during the cleaning process. This allows each sea cucumber to fully contact the water flow, avoiding the problem of incomplete cleaning caused by sea cucumber accumulation, achieving uniform cleaning of the sea cucumbers, and improving the overall quality of the product.

[0037] In addition, the first rotating column 302, the second rotating column 303, and the third rotating column 304 rotate synchronously in opposite directions under the linkage of gear 308, which can adjust the angle of water sprayed by nozzle 306, forming a cross-flow network. This all-round, multi-angle, and cross-flow of water can penetrate into every fold and crevic of the sea cucumber's body surface, thoroughly washing away impurities such as mud, algae, and microorganisms, further improving cleaning efficiency.

[0038] In practice, the sea cucumbers to be cleaned are carefully poured into the cleaning cylinder 2 through the open end. The power unit is then activated, causing the cleaning cylinder 2 to rotate smoothly within the fixed ring 5. Simultaneously, the first motor 307 is started in both forward and reverse directions. The output shaft of the first motor 307 drives the second rotating column 303 to rotate. Because the gears 308 on the first, second, and third rotating columns 302, 303, and 304 are tightly meshed, the rotation of the second rotating column 303 causes the first and third rotating columns 302 and 304 to rotate synchronously in opposite directions, adjusting the nozzle 306 to the optimal spray angle. As the cleaning cylinder 2 rotates, the internal spiral blades 202 act like a highly efficient agitator, continuously propelling the sea cucumbers forward in a spiral motion within the cleaning cylinder 2. During this process, the sea cucumbers collide and rub against each other, while simultaneously coming into contact with the inner wall of the cleaning cylinder 2, causing loose impurities attached to the surface of the sea cucumbers to begin to detach. After being thoroughly cleaned for a set time, the sea cucumbers will be discharged in an orderly manner from the open end of the cleaning cylinder 2 along the spiral direction of the cleaning cylinder 2, completing the entire cleaning process.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the power assembly includes a mounting frame 4, a second motor 401, a pulley 402, and a sleeve wheel 404. The mounting frame 4 is fixed in a gate shape and is located on the top of the housing 1. The second motor 401 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 4. The pulley 402 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the second motor 401. The sleeve wheel 404 is fixedly mounted on the outer circumference of the cleaning cylinder 2 at the middle position. The sleeve wheel 404 and the pulley 402 are connected by a belt 403.

[0040] It should be noted that, since the pulley 402 and the sleeve wheel 404 are tightly connected by the belt 403, the rotation of the pulley 402 is transmitted to the sleeve wheel 404 through the belt 403, causing the sleeve wheel 404 to rotate accordingly. The sleeve wheel 404 is fixedly mounted on the outer circumference of the cleaning cylinder 2 at the middle position, so the rotation of the sleeve wheel 404 will drive the cleaning cylinder 2 to start rotating smoothly within the fixed ring 5.

[0041] It needs to be further explained that, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning cylinder 2 is also equipped with a cleaning assembly, which includes a third motor 6 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the housing 1, a vertical rod 309 fixedly installed at the bottom of the second crossbar 301, and a rotating shaft 601 with one end rotatably connected to the vertical rod 309 and the other end rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1. The rotating shaft 601 passes through the cleaning cylinder 2 and is located below the water spray assembly. Multiple brushes 602 are evenly fixed on the periphery of the rotating shaft 601.

[0042] In practice, the third motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 601 to rotate. As the sea cucumber rotates with the cleaning drum 2 and the spiral blades 202 move, the brush 602 can penetrate deep into the folds of the sea cucumber's body surface, removing stubborn dirt, algae, microorganisms, and other impurities attached to these areas. This achieves a more thorough and comprehensive cleaning of the sea cucumber, improving the cleaning effect.

[0043] To further enhance the cleaning effect, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the bottom of the housing 1 is provided with a plurality of vortex components located below the cleaning cylinder 2. The vortex components include a fourth motor 7 fixedly disposed on the bottom surface of the outer wall of the housing 1, a vertical shaft 701 fixedly disposed on the output shaft of the fourth motor 7 and extending into the interior of the housing 1, and a spiral stirring plate 702 fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the vertical shaft 701.

[0044] It should be understood that a certain amount of water will be present inside the shell 1, with the water level equal to the height of the sea cucumber. The fourth motor 7 drives the vertical shaft 701 to rotate, causing the spiral stirring blade 702 to rotate at high speed in the area below the cleaning cylinder 2 at the bottom of the shell 1. The spiral shape of the stirring blade 702 generates a strong vortex effect during rotation, stirring the surrounding water flow and causing it to form a regular vortex motion. The water flow can penetrate deeper into the folds and crevices of the sea cucumber's body surface, washing away dirt and impurities hidden in these areas, further improving the cleaning effect.

[0045] Based on the above configuration, the vortex assembly also includes a bubble assembly, which includes an air pump 8, a jet pipe 801, and a connecting pipe 802. The air pump 8 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer wall of the housing 1. The jet pipe 801 is connected to the air pump 8 through the connecting pipe 802, and the end of the jet pipe 801 is inserted into the housing 1. Two sets of jet pipes 801 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the vertical axis 701.

[0046] The combination of the bubble assembly and the vortex assembly provides a more comprehensive cleaning effect for sea cucumbers. Gas generated by the air pump 8 is delivered to the jet pipe 801 through the connecting pipe 802, and then injected into the shell 1 from the jet nozzle at the end of the jet pipe 801, forming a large number of fine bubbles in the water. As the bubbles rise, they collide and rub against the sea cucumbers.

[0047] It needs to be further explained that, such as Figure 2 As shown, a water outlet pipe 11 is connected to the bottom of the housing 1. The water outlet pipe 11 connected to the bottom of the housing 1 can discharge the sewage and impurities generated during the cleaning process in a timely manner.

[0048] Preferably, a shielding ring 203 is fixedly provided at the open front end of the cleaning cylinder 2. The shielding ring 203 can prevent the sea cucumbers from falling out of the front end of the cleaning cylinder 2, protect the integrity of the sea cucumbers, and reduce the loss of the sea cucumbers.

[0049] Furthermore, a sliding plate 10 is fixedly inclined on the front side of the shell 1, with the bottom end of the sliding plate 10 extending into the cleaning cylinder 2. In actual operation, the operator only needs to place the sea cucumber at the starting end of the sliding plate 10, and the sea cucumber will slide smoothly down the sliding plate 10 under its own gravity and finally enter the cleaning cylinder 2 accurately.

[0050] To facilitate the collection of cleaned sea cucumbers, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a conveyor belt 9 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1 at the rear end of the cleaning cylinder 2. During operation, one end of the conveyor belt 9 is below the open end of the cleaning cylinder 2, and the other end extends upward to the top of the housing 1. It should be noted that the conveyor belt 9 is a waterproof conveyor belt 9.

[0051] In addition, a plurality of support legs 101 are fixedly and evenly provided at the bottom of the housing 1 for support.

[0052] After the sea cucumbers are cleaned in the cleaning drum 2, they are conveyed to the rear open end as the drum 2 rotates, and then fall naturally onto the conveyor belt 9. The conveyor belt 9 runs at a constant speed, ensuring that the sea cucumbers are transported smoothly one after another, avoiding accumulation and disorder during the discharge process, achieving automatic and orderly discharge, and improving discharge efficiency.

[0053] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
