[0009] Further optimizing this technical solution, a filter screen of an integrated processing equipment for efficient sea cucumber cleaning, steaming, and cooling is designed to be higher on the left and lower on the right, and tilted towards the feed inlet.

[0010] To further optimize this technical solution, a temperature sensor is fixed inside the cooking chamber of a high-efficiency sea cucumber cleaning-cooking-cooling integrated processing equipment; a pressure regulating valve is installed on the gas supply pipe; and the signal output terminal of the temperature sensor is connected to the control system of the pressure regulating valve.

[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, a high-efficiency integrated processing equipment for cleaning, steaming, and cooling sea cucumbers includes a cleaning component, a steaming component, and a cooling component arranged from left to right.

[0024] like Figure 1-2As shown, the cleaning assembly includes a conical cleaning tank 1; the inner diameter of the upper end of the cleaning tank 1 is larger than the inner diameter of the lower end; a diversion ring 2 connected to an external water supply system is correspondingly sleeved inside the upper end of the cleaning tank 1; multiple flushing nozzles 3 are connected circumferentially along the diversion ring 2; the output ends of the flushing nozzles 3 face the inner side of the diversion ring 2; a drain pipe 4 is connected to the bottom end of the cleaning tank 1; a valve 5 is installed on the drain pipe 4; a filter screen 6 is provided above the inlet of the drain pipe 4; the filter screen 6 is sleeved and fixed inside the cleaning tank 1; a reduction motor 8 is fixed outside the cleaning tank 1 through an extension frame 7; a drive shaft 9 is coaxially fixed to the output end of the reduction motor 8; a brush 10 with the same shape as the cleaning tank 1 is sleeved and fixed to the drive shaft 9; the brush 10 is correspondingly coaxially arranged inside the cleaning tank 1; the diameter of the brush 10 is smaller than the diameter of the cleaning tank 1.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the cooking assembly includes a cooking chamber 11 sealed and fixed to the lower right side of the cleaning tank 1; the right side of the cleaning tank 1 is connected to the upper left side of the cooking chamber 11 via a feed inlet 12; the feed inlet 12 is located above the filter screen 6; an expansion joint 13 is fixed to the outer wall of the cleaning tank 1; a baffle 14 for controlling the opening or closing of the feed inlet 12 is fixed to the telescopic end of the expansion joint 13; a first mesh belt conveyor 15 for transmission from left to right is connected to the lower inside of the cooking chamber 11; the left end of the first mesh belt conveyor 15 is connected to the feed inlet 12; a steam generator 16 is fixed to the outside of the cooking chamber 11; the output end of the steam generator 16 is connected to an exhaust shell 18 via a gas supply pipe 17; the exhaust shell 18 is fixed inside the cooking chamber 11; multiple steam nozzles 19 are connected to the exhaust pipe.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the cooling assembly includes a cooling chamber 20 that is connected to the right end of the cooking chamber 11; a second mesh belt conveyor 21 that transmits water from left to right is connected inside the cooling chamber 20; the left end of the second mesh belt conveyor 21 is connected to the lower right end of the first mesh belt conveyor 15; a water guide shell 22 is fixed on the upper part of the cooling chamber 20; a plurality of cooling nozzles 23 that spray water onto the second mesh belt conveyor 21 are connected to the lower end of the water guide shell 22; the water guide shell 22 is connected to an external cold water system through a water cooling pipe 24.

[0027] Water is supplied to the drainage ring 2 through an external water supply system and then sprayed out by the rinsing nozzle 3. When the sea cucumbers to be processed are placed into the cleaning tank 1 from the top, they can be subjected to high-pressure rinsing. At the same time, the reduction motor 8 drives the brush 10 to scrub the sea cucumbers. On the one hand, brushing is more effective in removing impurities from the sea cucumber surface; on the other hand, the brush 10 agitates and stirs the sea cucumbers, making it easier to separate impurities and allowing the sea cucumbers to tumble and be rinsed more thoroughly. The reduction motor 8 drives the brush 10 to rotate at a relatively slow speed to reduce the chance of damaging the sea cucumber surface. The specific rotation speed parameters can be selected by those skilled in the art based on the needs of cleaning and protecting the sea cucumbers, and no specific limitations are made in this application.

[0028] After cleaning, open valve 5 (which can be remotely and automatically controlled by an electric valve structure). Sewage and impurities flow through filter screen 6 into drain pipe 4 and are discharged. The cleaned sea cucumbers are intercepted by filter screen 6 and collect at the feed inlet 12 at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1.

[0029] Hot steam generated by steam generator 16 is injected into the cooking chamber 11 through steam nozzle 19 to maintain a hot steaming environment within the chamber. The first mesh belt conveyor 15 operates continuously. In this state, after the expansion joint 13 releases the obstruction of the feed inlet 12 by driving the baffle 14, the cleaned sea cucumbers fall onto the first mesh belt conveyor 15 and are collected. The first mesh belt conveyor 15 slowly transports the sea cucumbers, continuously steaming them until they are conveyed to the cooling components and cooked to the desired degree. The conveying speed of the first mesh belt conveyor 15 is matched with the degree of steaming to ensure that the sea cucumbers are cooked properly before reaching the cooling components.

[0030] After steaming, the sea cucumbers fall onto the second mesh belt conveyor 21. An external cold water system continuously injects cold water into the water tank 22 through the water-cooling pipe 24. The cold water is sprayed out from the cooling nozzles 23, acting on the sea cucumbers on the second mesh belt conveyor 21 to cool them after steaming. The cooled sea cucumbers are then transported out using the second mesh belt conveyor 21. Typically, cold water at 0-5℃ is used for spraying and cooling. Similarly, the conveying speed of the second mesh belt conveyor 21 is matched to the cooling effect to ensure adequate cooling upon output.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the filter screen 6 has a structure that is higher on the left and lower on the right, and is inclined towards the feed inlet 12. The arrangement of the filter screen 6 helps the sea cucumbers to converge at the feed inlet 12 and fall through the feed inlet 12 onto the first mesh belt conveyor 15.

[0032] like Figure 3As shown, a temperature sensor 25 is fixed inside the cooking chamber 11; a pressure regulating valve 26 is installed on the gas supply pipe 17; the signal output terminal of the temperature sensor 25 is connected to the control system of the pressure regulating valve 26. The temperature sensor 25 monitors the temperature inside the cooking chamber 11 in real time and feeds the data back to the control system of the pressure regulating valve 26. When the temperature deviates from the set value, the control system automatically adjusts the pressure regulating valve 26 to control the steam flow and pressure to ensure the stability of the cooking temperature.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the exhaust shell 18 is located below the first mesh belt conveyor 15; the steam nozzle 19 faces upward toward the first mesh belt conveyor 15. According to the law of hot air rising, the ejected hot steam can act on the sea cucumber more quickly, improving the cooking efficiency.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, an air duct 27 is also fixed inside the cooling chamber 20; the air duct 27 is located on the right side of the water guide shell 22; multiple cold air inlets 28 are connected to the air duct 27; the air duct 27 is connected to the air outlet of the fan 30 fixed outside the cooling chamber 20 through a conduit 29. This process can achieve the effect of air drying of sea cucumbers, which is beneficial to drying the surface of sea cucumbers after water spraying and cooling, removing moisture, and improving the integrity of sea cucumber processing.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the lower left side of the cooking chamber 11 is connected to the drain pipe 4 via the drain outlet 31; the bottom of both the cooling chamber 20 and the cooking chamber 11 are inclined structures with the left side lower than the right side. The wastewater from cleaning, the condensate from cooking, and the settling cooling water all flow into the drain pipe 4 and are discharged. Subsequently, a water recycling system can be used to recycle and reuse the water resources, saving energy.
