Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a cleaning device for agricultural product processing. Background Technology

[0002] Before agricultural products are packaged and sold, impurities such as mud and gravel attached to the crops need to be removed to make the agricultural products more hygienic, cleaner and easier to sell. The cleaning of agricultural products is often done by agricultural product cleaning equipment, but traditional agricultural product processing cleaning equipment has some shortcomings that affect daily use.

[0003] The primary problem is that agricultural products often have dirt, pesticide residues, microorganisms, insect eggs and other impurities attached to their surface. Spraying or soaking alone is not enough to reach the crevices and depressions. For some agricultural products with softer texture or irregular shape, mechanical friction alone may cause excessive cleaning in some areas, which may cause scratches and cracks on the fragile surface of the agricultural products, resulting in a decline in product quality and even causing rot and spoilage during subsequent processing.

[0004] More importantly, traditional agricultural product processing cleaning equipment lacks water recycling and treatment devices. If the cleaning equipment directly discharges wastewater containing impurities such as mud, pesticide residues, and broken leaves without treatment, it will cause a large waste of reusable water resources. Especially in water-scarce areas or during peak water consumption periods, continuous reliance on municipal water supply or groundwater extraction will lead to a significant increase in water costs for processing enterprises, squeezing their profit margins.

[0005] A particularly prominent issue is the lack of drying equipment in traditional agricultural product processing cleaning devices. After cleaning, agricultural products are covered with a large amount of moisture. Without drying equipment, this moisture becomes a breeding ground for microorganisms. Microorganisms such as E. coli and mold can multiply rapidly in a short period of time, causing agricultural products to rot and spoil during storage or subsequent processing, affecting food safety and shelf life. When damp agricultural products are placed in sealed packaging, water vapor condenses inside, causing the packaging film to fog up, stick together, or even break, increasing the loss rate of packaging materials.

[0012] The present invention is further provided with a shock-absorbing pad at the connection between the vibration shell and the housing, which reduces the impact of vibration on other equipment.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the vibration drying device is equipped with a heating tube, which is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe, thereby improving the drying efficiency.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the vibrating drying device is equipped with anti-collision soft body, the anti-collision soft body is disposed inside the vibrating shell, and there is a gap between the anti-collision soft body and the vibrating screen, thereby reducing damage to agricultural products.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that the vibrating drying device is provided with a drain plate and a drain outlet, the drain plate and the drain outlet are fixedly connected and both are fixedly connected to the vibrating shell, and the drain outlet is placed above the water collection tank, thereby improving the utilization of water resources.

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a cleaning device for agricultural product processing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. A complete bubble cleaning device is formed by the close cooperation between the air pump, air supply pipe, outer shell, grid, and filter screen. The bubble cleaning device uses a large number of dense bubbles to continuously rise and burst in the water, creating a continuous impact and agitation on the surface of agricultural products. This dynamic action can penetrate deep into the crevices and folds of agricultural products, effectively removing attached mud, pesticide residues, insect eggs, microorganisms, and other impurities. Compared with traditional spraying or soaking cleaning, the enveloping impact of bubbles can cover more dead corners, making it especially suitable for irregularly shaped and rough-surfaced agricultural products, significantly reducing the impurity residue rate. Bubble cleaning relies on the gentle impact of bubbles, with mild and uniform force, which can effectively remove dirt while minimizing physical damage to agricultural products.

[0019] 2. A complete water recycling system is formed by the close cooperation between the drain outlet, water collection tank, filter box, water pump and connecting pipe. The water recycling system can filter and purify the wastewater after cleaning, so that the treated water can be reused in the cleaning process. If agricultural product cleaning wastewater is discharged directly, it may contain mud, plant residues, small amounts of pesticide or fertilizer residues, etc. If discharged without treatment, it may not meet environmental protection standards and face the risk of fines or rectification. The water recycling system reduces the amount of wastewater discharged in the end by recycling the wastewater, thus reducing the wastewater treatment load of enterprises.

[0020] 3. The close cooperation between the vibrating shell, vibrating screen, vibrating motor, fan, exhaust duct, and exhaust hopper forms a complete vibrating drying device. After washing, agricultural products usually have residual moisture on their surface. If they are air-dried naturally, it is not only time-consuming, but also prone to the growth of microorganisms due to the humid environment. Especially in high temperature and high humidity environments, it can easily lead to product spoilage or off-odors. Vibration causes the agricultural products to be constantly turned over and dispersed during transportation, avoiding localized moisture residue caused by stacking. It allows the surface moisture to be exposed more evenly in the drying airflow, enabling the surface moisture of the crops to evaporate quickly and significantly shortening the drying time. It reduces manual transfer or waiting for drying, reduces the labor input and time waste in intermediate links, and improves the overall production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

The conveyor belt 2 is disposed inside the housing 1, and the spray body 3 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. The housing 1 is equipped with a bubble cleaning device, a water recovery device, and a vibration drying device. The bubble cleaning device includes an air pump 4, an air supply pipe 5, a housing 6, a grid 7, and a filter screen 8. The air pump 4 is fixedly connected to the housing 1 and connected to the housing 6 through the air supply pipe 5. The housing 6 is equipped with a grid 7 and a filter screen 8, with gaps between the grid 7 and the filter screen 8. The housing 6 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. The water recovery device includes a drain outlet 9, a water collection tank 10, a filter box 11, a water pump 12, and a connecting pipe 13. The drain outlet 9, the water collection tank 10, and the filter box 11 are all fixedly connected to the housing 1. The filter box 11 is fixedly connected to the water pump 12 and the water collection tank 10, respectively. The connecting pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the water pump 12 and the spray body 3, respectively.

[0032] In a further embodiment of this application, the vibrating drying device includes a vibrating shell 14, a vibrating screen 15, a vibrating motor 16, a fan 17, an exhaust duct 18, and an exhaust hopper 19. The vibrating shell 14 is fixedly connected to the vibrating screen 15 and the shell 1, respectively. The vibrating shell 14 is placed below the conveyor belt 2. The vibrating motor 16 and the fan 17 are both fixedly installed on the vibrating shell 14. The exhaust duct 18 is fixedly connected to the exhaust hopper 19 and the fan 17, respectively. There is a gap between the exhaust hopper 19 and the vibrating screen 15.

[0033] In a further embodiment of this application, the vibrating screen 15 is installed at an angle so that the vibrating screen 15 transports agricultural products by vibration.

[0034] In a further embodiment of this application, a shock-absorbing pad 20 is provided at the connection between the vibrating shell 14 and the shell 1.

[0035] In a further embodiment of this application, the vibration drying device is provided with a heating tube 21, which is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe 18, thereby improving the drying efficiency.

[0036] In a further embodiment of this application, the anti-collision software 22 is disposed inside the vibrating shell 14, and there is a gap between the anti-collision software 22 and the vibrating screen 15.

[0037] In a further embodiment of this application, the vibrating drying device is provided with a drain plate 23 and a drain outlet 24. The drain plate 23 and the drain outlet 24 are fixedly connected and both are fixedly connected to the vibrating shell 14. The drain outlet 24 is placed above the water collection tank 10. A large part of the water adhering to the surface of the crops has been filtered out by the holes on the conveyor belt 2. The residual water that is shaken off and blown away after entering the vibrating screen 15 will flow into the water collection tank 10 through the drain plate 22 and the drain outlet 24 to participate in water circulation.

[0038] In this embodiment, when the device is needed, the air pump 4 is turned on to supply gas to the outer casing 6 through the air supply pipe 5. The gas is diverted when passing through the grid 7, and after being discharged from the outer casing 6 through the filter screen 8, it comes into contact with the water in the casing 1 to generate bubbles. The water pump 12 is started and the agricultural products are placed on the running conveyor belt 2. The water pump 12 sends the water in the filter box 11 into the spray body 3 through the connecting pipe 13. The water sprayed out by the spray body 3 sprays and washes the agricultural products. The agricultural products are then transported to the vibrating screen 15 by the conveyor belt 2. The vibrating motor 16 on the vibrating shell 14 is started to vibrate the vibrating screen 15. Then the fan 17 is started to dry the crops on the vibrating screen 15 through the exhaust pipe 18 and the exhaust duct 19. The heating pipe 21 in the exhaust pipe 18 enables the blown air to accelerate the drying of the crops.

[0039] More specifically, the water used for cleaning the shell 1 continuously flows from the drain outlet 9 into the water collection tank 10. The water collected in the water collection tank 10 is then filtered by the water pump 12 and pumped into the spray body 3 for spraying, thus circulating the water. When the crops are transported to the end of the conveyor belt 2, a large portion of the water adhering to the surface of the crops has been filtered out by the holes on the conveyor belt 2. The residual water that is shaken off and blown away after entering the vibrating screen 15 will flow into the water collection tank 10 through the drain plate 22 and the drain outlet 24 to participate in the water circulation. The anti-collision soft body 22 prevents the crops from hitting the vibrating shell 14 and causing damage, and the shock-absorbing pad 20 reduces the impact of vibration on other devices.

[0040] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment: the air pump 4 is turned on to supply gas to the outer casing 6 through the air supply pipe 5. The gas is diverted when passing through the grid 7, and after passing through the filter screen 8 and being discharged from the outer casing 6, it comes into contact with the water in the casing 1 to generate bubbles. The water pump 12 is started and the agricultural products are placed on the running conveyor belt 2. The water pump 12 sends the water in the filter box 11 into the spray body 3 through the connecting pipe 13. The water sprayed out by the spray body 3 sprays and washes the agricultural products. The agricultural products are then transported to the vibrating screen 15 by the conveyor belt 2. The vibrating motor 16 on the vibrating shell 14 is started to vibrate the vibrating screen 15. Then the fan 17 is started to dry the crops on the vibrating screen 15 through the exhaust pipe 18 and the exhaust duct 19. The heating pipe 21 in the exhaust pipe 18 enables the blown air to accelerate the drying of the crops.

[0041] Water from the cleaning of the housing 1 continuously flows from the drain outlet 9 into the water collection tank 10. The operation of the water pump 12 causes the water in the water collection tank 10 to flow into the filter box 11 for filtration and is then pumped by the water pump to the spray body 3 for spraying, thus circulating the water. When the crops are transported to the end of the conveyor belt 2, a large portion of the water adhering to the surface of the crops has been filtered out by the holes on the conveyor belt 2. The residual water that is shaken off and blown away after entering the vibrating screen 15 will flow into the water collection tank 10 through the drain plate 22 and the drain outlet 24 to participate in the water circulation. The anti-collision soft body 22 prevents the crops from hitting the vibrating housing 14 and causing damage, and the shock-absorbing pad 20 reduces the impact of vibration on other devices.
