Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of honey residue cleaning technology for honey buckets, and in particular to a cleaning device for honey residue cleaning in honey buckets. Background Technology

[0002] Honey is a natural sweet substance produced by bees from the nectar collected from flowering plants and fully processed in the hive. It has a fragrant and rich aroma and a pure, sweet taste. Bees collect nectar or secretions from flowers, which contain approximately 75% water, and store them in their second stomach. Through various transformations within the bee's body, worker bees store the transformed nectar or secretions in the honeycomb and seal it with beeswax. After about 15 days of repeated processing, various vitamins, minerals, and amino acids are enriched to certain levels, while the polysaccharides in the nectar are converted into monosaccharides such as glucose and fructose, which can be directly absorbed by the human body. Nectar or secretions with a water content of less than 23% are honey.

[0003] Honey has a certain degree of adhesiveness, and after the honey is poured out, some honey remains on the inner wall of the honey bucket. This honey cannot be reused after long-term storage. When it is necessary to store honey in the honey bucket again, the residual honey on the inner wall needs to be cleaned. In the existing technology, water is usually poured into the honey bucket to dilute the honey and reduce its adhesiveness. Then, the honey on the inner wall is scraped off manually. This method not only increases the labor intensity of the workers, but also has low efficiency and quality in cleaning the honey, and increases labor costs. Based on the above problems, this application proposes a device for cleaning residual honey in honey buckets. Utility Model Content

[0019] 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.

[0020] Example: Refer to Figure 1-4A device for cleaning residual honey in a honey bucket includes a mounting base 1. A lifting assembly is mounted on top of the mounting base 1, and a lifting plate 7 is mounted on top of the mounting base 1 via the lifting assembly. A rotation drive assembly is mounted on the surface of the lifting plate 7. A water outlet pipe 13 is rotatably mounted inside the mounting base 1. A rotary joint 12 is fixedly mounted on top of the lifting plate 7, and the water outlet of the rotary joint 12 is connected to the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 13. An adjustment assembly is mounted on the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 13, and a nozzle 21 and a scraper 22 are mounted on the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 13 via the adjustment assembly. A honey bucket 27 is placed on top of the mounting base 1. The adjustment assembly includes a rectangular tube 14 fixedly mounted on the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 13, and a limit plate 15 is mounted inside the rectangular tube 14. A fixed device is mounted inside the limit plate 15. A sealing ring 16 is provided, which overlaps with the rectangular tube 14. An adjusting tube 17 is fixedly installed inside the limiting plate 15. A nozzle 21 is fixedly installed at the end of the adjusting tube 17, and a scraper 22 is fixedly installed on the side of the adjusting tube 17. The adjusting tube 17 and the rectangular tube 14 are slidably connected. A fixing post 18 is fixedly installed at the top of the adjusting tube 17, and a fixing plate 19 overlaps on the surface of the fixing post 18. The fixing plate 19 is fixedly installed at the top of the rectangular tube 14. A washer nut 20 is threaded on the surface of the fixing post 18. According to the size of the honey bucket 27, turning the washer nut 20 pulls the adjusting tube 17, causing the nozzle 21 and scraper 22 to move. The adjusting tube 17 will also cause the sealing ring 16 to move inside the rectangular tube 14 through the limiting plate 15, thus adjusting the spray nozzle 21. The distance between the head 21 and the scraper 22 allows the scraper 22 to conform to the size of the honey bucket 27, thus facilitating the cleaning of honey buckets 27 of different sizes and making the cleaning device more flexible in use. The top of the mounting base 1 is provided with a clamping component to facilitate the clamping of the honey bucket 27. The lifting component includes a mounting frame 2 fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting base 1. A stepper motor 3 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting frame 2. A screw 4 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the mounting frame 2. A threaded sleeve 5 is provided on the surface of the screw 4. Guide plates 6 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the threaded sleeve 5. The guide plates 6 are slidably connected to the mounting frame 2. The lifting plate 7 is fixedly mounted on the front side of the guide plate 6. The rotation drive component includes a drive motor 8 fixedly mounted on the top of the lifting plate 7. A rotating shaft 9 is fixedly installed at the output end of the device. A driving gear 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 9. A driven gear 11 is meshed on the surface of the driving gear 10. The driven gear 11 is fixedly installed on the surface of the water outlet pipe 13. The stepper motor 3 drives the screw sleeve 5 through the screw 4 to move the guide plate 6 inside the mounting frame 2, so that the lifting plate 7 drives the rotary joint 12 and the water outlet pipe 13 to move downward. This allows the water outlet pipe 13 to drive the nozzle 21 and scraper 22 into the honey bucket 27 through the adjusting component. The drive motor 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 to drive the water outlet pipe 13 to rotate through the driving gear 10 and the driven gear 11. The water outlet pipe 13 drives the nozzle 21 and scraper 22 to make a circular motion through the adjusting component, so that the scraper 22 scrapes off the honey adhering to the honey bucket 27.Simultaneously, water is delivered to the outlet pipe 13 via an external device through a rotary joint 12, and then enters the nozzle 21 through a rectangular pipe 14 and a regulating pipe 17. The nozzle 21 sprays water into the honey container 27, rinsing the inner wall and cleaning away any remaining honey. This makes cleaning the honey container 27 easier and reduces the workload for workers.

[0021] Specifically, a protective shell is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting plate 7. The driving gear 10 and the driven gear 11 are both located inside the protective shell. The protective shell is made of stainless steel. The protective shell is used to protect the driving gear 10 and the driven gear 11, preventing honey from splashing onto the surface of the driving gear 10 and the driven gear 11, which would hinder the rotation of the driving gear 10 and the driven gear 11.

[0022] Specifically, the clamping assembly includes a mounting vertical plate 23 fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base 1. A hydraulic push rod 24 is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting vertical plate 23. A clamping plate 25 is fixedly installed at the output end of the hydraulic push rod 24. A guide rod 26 is fixedly installed on the side of the clamping plate 25 near the mounting vertical plate 23. The guide rod 26 is slidably installed inside the mounting vertical plate 23. A V-shaped groove is provided on the side of the clamping plate 25 near the honey bucket 27. The clamping plate 25 is made of metal. When the honey bucket 27 to be cleaned is placed on the top of the mounting base 1, the output end of the hydraulic push rod 24 drives the clamping plate 25 to move, so that the clamping plate 25 drives the guide rod 26 to slide inside the mounting vertical plate 23, so that the clamping plate 25 clamps and fixes the honey bucket 27. The V-shaped groove allows the clamping plate 25 to be used for honey buckets 27 of different sizes.

[0023] In use: Based on the dimensions of the honey bucket 27, tighten the washer nut 20 to separate it from the fixing plate 19. Pull the adjusting tube 17 to move the nozzle 21 and scraper 22. The adjusting tube 17 will also move the sealing ring 16 inside the rectangular tube 14 via the limiting plate 15. By adjusting the length of the adjusting tube 17 extending from the rectangular tube 14, control the distance between the nozzle 21 and scraper 22 so that the scraper 22 conforms to the dimensions of the honey bucket 27. After adjustment, tighten the washer nut 20. Then, drive the output end of the stepper motor 3 to rotate the screw 4. The screw 4 drives the threaded sleeve 5 to move the guide plate 6 inside the mounting bracket 2. This causes the threaded sleeve 5 to move the lifting plate 7 downwards, which in turn moves the rotary joint 12 and the water outlet pipe 13 downwards. This allows the water outlet pipe 13 to pull the rectangular tube 14 into the honey bucket 27. The rectangular tube 14 drives the regulating tube 17 into the honey bucket 27, and the regulating tube 17 drives the nozzle 21 and scraper 22 into the honey bucket 27. Then, the drive motor 8 drives the output end to drive the rotating shaft 9 to rotate. The rotating shaft 9 drives the drive gear 10 to rotate, and the drive gear 10 drives the driven gear 11 that meshes with it to rotate. This causes the driven gear 11 to drive the water outlet pipe 13 to rotate. The water outlet pipe 13 drives the regulating tube 17 to make a circular motion through the rectangular tube 14, so that the scraper 22 scrapes off the honey adhering to the honey bucket 27. At the same time, the water flow is delivered to the rotary joint 12 through the external device, and then enters the water outlet pipe 13 through the rotary joint 12. Subsequently, it enters the regulating tube 17 through the rectangular tube 14 and is sprayed into the honey bucket 27 through the nozzle 21, so that the water flow washes the inner wall of the honey bucket 27.
