[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a cured meat filling machine with automatic cleaning function, including a machine body 1. A feeding hopper 2 is provided at the top of the machine body 1, and a discharge pipe 3 is provided on one side of the machine body 1. A gradient rinsing assembly for cleaning the grease inside the machine body 1 is provided on the machine body 1; the gradient rinsing assembly includes a first water tank 4 and a water collection trough 5. The first water tank 4 is installed inside the machine body 1, and the water collection trough 5 is opened inside the machine body 1; one end of the water collection trough 5 is connected to the first water tank 4, and the water collection trough 5 is opposite to the port of the discharge pipe 3. A mesh cylinder 6 is fixedly connected inside the first water tank 4, and one end of the mesh cylinder 6 is inclinedly connected to a feeding cylinder 7 that penetrates the inside of the first water tank 4. One end of the first water tank 4 is connected to a first water pipe 8, and the first... The other end of the water pipe 8 is connected to the feed hopper 2. A first pump 9 is provided in the middle of the first water pipe 8. A drain pipe 10 is installed on one side of the bottom of the first water tank 4. A solenoid valve is installed on the drain pipe 10. The gradient flushing assembly also includes a second water tank 11. The second water tank 11 is installed inside the machine body 1. One end of the second water tank 11 is connected to a second water pipe 12, and the other end of the second water pipe 12 is connected to the feed hopper 2. A second pump 13 is provided in the middle of the second water tank 11. A level gauge 14 is installed inside the second water tank 11. A water inlet pipe 15 is installed on one side of the second water tank 11. A solenoid valve is installed on the water inlet pipe 15.

[0017] The main structure of the entire cured meat filling machine houses and supports all other components. The feed hopper 2 receives and introduces food ingredients such as cured meat to be filled. The discharge pipe 3 discharges wastewater from the filling process or cleaning process. The discharge pipe 3 is positioned opposite the water collection tank 5 to ensure wastewater flows smoothly into the water collection tank 5 for collection and treatment. The first water tank 4 stores and recycles the cleaning solution. The water collection tank 5 receives the cleaning solution discharged from the discharge pipe 3, which returns to the first water tank 4 via the first water pipe 8 for recycling. The mesh cylinder 6 contains slow-release solid cleaning blocks, such as alkaline protease preparations, which dissolve in water to produce active cleaning ingredients. The inclined feed cylinder 7 facilitates the addition of slow-release solid cleaning blocks into the mesh cylinder 6. The first water pipe 8 is the delivery pipe for the cleaning solution. The first pump 9... The first water tank 11 is used to provide power to pump the cleaning liquid in the first water tank 4 to the feed hopper 2. The drain pipe 10 can discharge the wastewater or cleaning liquid in the first water tank 4 through the cooperation of the solenoid valve. The second water tank 11 is used to store fresh water for rinsing the inside of the machine body 1 and rinsing away residual cleaning agent and stains inside the machine body 1. The second water pipe 12 is driven by the second pump 13 and pumps clean water to the feed hopper 2 to complete the rinsing process inside the machine body 1. The level gauge 14 monitors the water level in the second water tank 11 in real time. The data provided by the level gauge 14 can be used to automatically control the solenoid valve of the water inlet pipe 15 to ensure that the second water tank 11 always maintains a suitable water level and avoids water shortage or overflow. The water inlet pipe 15 is connected to an external water supply pipe to replenish the second water tank 11 with fresh water.

[0018] Furthermore, the top cover of the water collection tank 5 is provided on the filter screen plate 16, and the edge of the filter screen plate 16 is provided with magnetic sheets 17. The area where the edge of the water collection tank 5 contacts the filter screen plate 16 is also provided with magnetic sheets 17 that attract each other. The filter screen plate 16 is used to filter solid impurities and residues in the cleaning liquid discharged from the discharge pipe 3, thereby improving the quality and recycling effect of the cleaning liquid, reducing the entry of impurities into the first water tank 4, reducing the risk of pipe and pump blockage, and extending the service life of the equipment. The design of the magnetic sheets 17 allows the filter screen plate 16 to be quickly installed and removed, facilitating regular cleaning and maintenance, and reducing the time and difficulty of manual operation.

[0019] Furthermore, a rotating rod 18 is rotatably inserted through one end of the first water tank 4, and a stirring motor 20 connected to the rotating rod 18 is installed on one side of the first water tank 4. Multiple sets of stirring rods 19 are fixed at equal intervals in the area inside the first water tank 4 where the rotating rod 18 is located. The stirring motor 20 provides power for the rotation of the rotating rod 18, and the rotation and stirring of the stirring rods 19 ensures that the cleaning agent is evenly distributed in the cleaning liquid, giving full play to the cleaning effect, improving the removal effect of oil and dirt inside the machine body 1, and preventing the cleaning agent from settling or clumping, thus maintaining the activity and cleaning ability of the cleaning liquid.

[0020] Furthermore, an observation window 21 is embedded on one side of both the first water tank 4 and the second water tank 11. The observation window 21 is made of transparent material. The observation window 21 allows staff to monitor the water level, cleaning fluid status, and whether there is any sediment inside the first water tank 4 and the second water tank 11 in real time.

[0021] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided at the bottom of the machine body 1; the rubber pad provides good anti-slip performance to prevent the machine body 1 from sliding on the ground and ensure the safe operation of the equipment.

[0022] The working principle of this invention is as follows: Slow-release solid cleaning blocks, such as alkaline protease preparations, are added to the mesh cylinder 6. These cleaning blocks gradually dissolve upon contact with the liquid in the first water tank 4, releasing active cleaning ingredients. Then, the first pump 9 is activated, pumping the cleaning liquid from the first water tank 4 to the feed hopper 2 via the first water pipe 8. The cleaning liquid then enters the machine body 1 from the feed hopper 2, flowing through key components such as the conveying pipe, valves, and filling head, rinsing away grease and dirt. Finally, the rinsed liquid is discharged through the discharge pipe 3, flows into the collection tank 5, and returns to the first water tank 4 through a connecting pipe, achieving the recycling of the cleaning liquid and reducing water waste. This process is repeated multiple times, ensuring the cleaning liquid flows through the machine body 1 multiple times. To better emulsify the oil stains inside the machine body 1, after repeatedly rinsing the inside of the machine body 1 with cleaning liquid, the wastewater or cleaning liquid in the first water tank 4 is discharged by controlling the solenoid valve on the drain pipe 10, in preparation for a thorough rinse. At this time, the second pump 13 is turned on, and fresh water from the second water tank 11 is pumped to the feed hopper 2 through the second water pipe 12. The clean water enters the inside of the machine body 1 from the feed hopper 2, thoroughly rinsing away residual cleaning agent and stubborn stains, ensuring that the inside of the equipment is clean and free of residue. During this process, the rinsed liquid is discharged through the discharge pipe 3, flows into the water collection tank 5, and then returns to the first water tank 4 through the connecting pipe as pre-wash water for the next solvent dissolution, in order to further reduce water consumption and conform to the water-saving trend of food machinery.
