Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food raw material processing technology, specifically to a taro cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Taro, besides being a staple food, is also frequently used as a raw material in food processing. Common taro processing equipment rarely includes a taro washing step; most equipment directly peels the taro, eliminating the washing process. This makes taro processing faster and more efficient. However, this method allows mud to easily get mixed into the taro during peeling, and some taro growers prefer to wash the taro before selling it, rather than peeling it directly. Based on these issues, existing technologies have disclosed many devices for taro washing, such as a fully automatic taro washing machine disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent CN206341893U and a high-pressure spray taro washing machine disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent CN222340474U. However, after taro is dug out of the ground, there will be a lot of mud on its surface. After a while, the mud on the surface of the taro dries and becomes a hard mud that adheres to the surface. When washing, the mud does not completely penetrate. Few of the existing taro washing devices disclosed in the technology pre-treat the mud on the surface of the taro. Therefore, there is a need to provide a washing device that can pre-treat the mud on the taro before washing. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve one of the technical problems mentioned above by providing a taro cleaning device that can first remove some of the mud from the surface of the taro before cleaning it.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A taro cleaning device includes a mud-vibrating assembly and a cleaning assembly. The mud-vibrating assembly includes a vibrating plate, a vibrating motor, a mud-discharging plate, and a guide plate. A mud-draining hole is formed through the vibrating plate. The vibrating motor is installed in the middle of the vibrating plate. The mud-discharging plate is inclinedly disposed at the bottom of the vibrating plate, with one end connected to the vibrating plate. The guide plate is inclined relative to the vibrating plate and connected to the discharge end of the vibrating plate. The cleaning assembly is installed below the mud-vibrating assembly and corresponds to the end of the guide plate opposite to the vibrating plate. The cleaning assembly is used to clean taro.

[0006] Furthermore, the slurry vibrating assembly also includes a feed guide frame, which is installed on the side of the vibrating plate opposite to the slurry pouring plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly includes a cleaning cylinder and several cleaning rollers. The cleaning cylinder is installed below the mud-vibrating assembly and corresponds to the end of the guide plate away from the vibrating plate. The cleaning cylinder has a cleaning groove, which opens to the side facing the mud-vibrating assembly and extends through the end away from the guide plate to form a roller outlet. The cleaning cylinder is inclined relative to the ground. Water spray nozzles are provided on both sides of the cleaning cylinder, and the water spray nozzles extend along the length direction of the cleaning cylinder. A drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the cleaning cylinder, which connects to the cleaning groove and extends along the length direction of the cleaning cylinder. Several cleaning rollers are arranged in a circumferential array along the cleaning cylinder and extend along the central axis of the cleaning cylinder. The cleaning rollers are provided with hard bristles. All of the cleaning rollers are axially rotatable.

[0008] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly also includes a baffle plate, which is rotatably mounted on the outside of the cleaning cylinder corresponding to the roller outlet, and the baffle plate is adapted to the roller outlet.

[0009] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly also includes a receiving arc plate, which is connected to the outer periphery of the roller outlet and extends in a direction away from the cleaning cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly also includes a drive unit, a movable frame, and a movable nozzle. The drive unit is mounted on the cleaning cylinder and extends along the length of the cleaning cylinder. The movable frame is mounted on the drive unit, and the movable nozzle is mounted on the movable frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the movable nozzle includes a semi-circular shell and a plurality of nozzles. The semi-circular shell is connected to the movable frame, and the plurality of nozzles are spaced apart on the arc-shaped circumferential surface of the semi-circular shell; the plurality of nozzles are connected to a high-pressure water source.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] When using the above-mentioned taro washing device, the taro is poured onto the vibrating plate from upstream. The vibrating motor drives the vibrating plate to vibrate, and the mud on the taro falls off with the vibration and is discharged from the mud-discharging plate through the mud-leaking hole into the mud-discharging assembly. Taro with some mud falling off is finally guided by the guide plate into the washing assembly to complete the washing operation. It can be seen that this utility model can remove some of the mud on the surface of the taro before the washing operation. Attached Figure Description

The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, a preferred embodiment of this utility model provides a taro cleaning device, including a mud-vibrating assembly 1 and a cleaning assembly 2. The mud-vibrating assembly 1 includes a vibrating plate 11, a vibrating motor 12, a mud-discharging plate 13, and a guide plate 14. Mud-leaking holes are evenly distributed on the vibrating plate 11. The vibrating motor 12 is installed in the middle of the vibrating plate 11, and the mud-discharging plate 13 is inclinedly disposed at the bottom of the vibrating plate 11, with one end of the mud-discharging plate 13 connected to the vibrating plate 11. The guide plate 14 is inclined relative to the vibrating plate 11 and connected to the discharge end of the vibrating plate 11. The cleaning assembly 2 is installed below the mud-vibrating assembly 1 and corresponds to the end of the guide plate 14 opposite to the vibrating plate 11. The cleaning assembly 2 is used to clean taro.

[0021] When using the above-mentioned taro washing device, the taro is placed upside down on the vibrating plate 11 from upstream. The vibrating motor 12 drives the vibrating plate 11 to vibrate, and the mud on the taro will fall off with the vibration and be discharged from the mud discharge plate 13 through the mud leakage hole into the mud-discharging assembly 1. Taro with some mud falling off is finally guided by the guide plate 14 into the washing assembly 2 to complete the washing operation. It can be seen that this utility model can remove some of the mud on the surface of the taro before the washing operation.

[0022] In this embodiment, the mud-vibrating assembly 1 also includes a feed guide frame 15, which is installed on the side of the vibrating plate 11 away from the mud-pouring plate 13. Specifically, the feed guide frame 15 has a through channel that connects to the vibrating plate 11. The feed guide frame 15 and the vibrating plate 11 form a feed port on the side facing the feed plate 14. At this time, the feed guide frame 15 can make most of the taro vibrate and de-mudify inside the feed guide frame 15, while the taro at the corresponding feed port can fall from the feed plate 14 into the washing assembly 2, thereby increasing the time for the taro to vibrate and de-mudify on the mud-vibrating assembly 1.

[0023] In this embodiment, there are two mud-pouring plates 13. One end of each mud-pouring plate 13 is connected to the vibrating plate 11 and located on both sides of the vibrating motor 12. Both mud-pouring plates 13 extend outwards towards the cleaning assembly 2 to prevent mud from falling into the cleaning assembly 2.

[0024] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 2 includes a cleaning cylinder 21 and several cleaning rollers 22. The cleaning cylinder 21 is installed below the mud-vibrating assembly 1 and corresponds to the end of the guide plate 14 away from the vibrating plate 11. Specifically, the top surface of the cleaning cylinder 21 is provided with columns 3 on both sides, the columns 3 extend in a direction perpendicular to the ground, and the top of the column 3 away from the ground is provided with a shock-absorbing spring 4. The mud-pouring plate 13 is fixed to the end of the shock-absorbing spring 4 away from the column 3. Both the mud-pouring plate 13 and the vibrating plate 11 are installed at an angle relative to the ground.

[0025] A cleaning tank 21 has a cleaning groove 211, which opens towards the mud-vibrating assembly 1 and extends through the end opposite to the guide plate 14 to form a roller outlet 212. The cleaning tank 21 is inclined relative to the ground. Specifically, the cleaning tank 21 is inclinedly mounted on the ground by a frame (not shown in this embodiment), and the higher end of the cleaning tank 21 corresponds to the guide plate 14. Water spray nozzles 213 are provided on both sides of the cleaning tank 21, extending along the length of the cleaning tank 21, and connected to a water source via water pipes. A drain outlet 214 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning tank 21, connecting to the cleaning groove 211 and extending along the length of the cleaning tank 21. Several cleaning rollers 22 are arranged in a circumferential array along the cleaning tank 21 and extend along the central axis of the cleaning tank 21. The cleaning rollers 22 are provided with hard plastic bristles. Several cleaning rollers 22 are axially rotatable. Specifically, a rotating motor is connected to the end of the cleaning roller 22 away from the roller outlet 212. The rotating motor is not shown in the figure. The end of the cleaning roller 22 facing the roller outlet 212 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the end of the cleaning cylinder 21 through a bearing. The rotating motor drives the corresponding cleaning roller 22 to rotate axially.

[0026] Taro falls from the higher side of the washing drum 21 into the washing tank 211. Washing water flows into the washing tank 211 in a curtain-like fashion from the spray nozzle 213. A rotating motor drives the washing roller 22 to rotate. As the washing roller 22 rotates, the taro rotates with it, and the hard plastic bristles clean the surface of the taro, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the taro surface. Because the washing drum 21 is inclined relative to the ground, the cleaned taro can roll out of the washing drum 21 towards the roller outlet 212. The washing wastewater is finally discharged from the washing drum 21 through the drain outlet 214.

[0027] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 2 further includes a baffle plate 23, which is rotatably mounted on the outside of the corresponding outlet 212 of the cleaning cylinder 21. Specifically, the top of the baffle plate 23 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the cleaning cylinder 21 via a hinge. One end of a spring 231 is connected to the top of the corresponding outlet 212 of the cleaning cylinder 21, and the other end of the spring 231 is connected to the baffle plate 23. The baffle plate 23 is adapted to the outlet 212, and when the baffle plate 23 is closed over the outlet 212, it can prevent cleaning water from being discharged from the outlet 212.

[0028] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 2 further includes a receiving arc plate 24, which is connected to the outer periphery of the roller outlet 212 and extends away from the cleaning cylinder 21. The receiving arc plate 24 can prevent the taro with moisture from contacting the external connecting screws of the cleaning roller 22, reducing the probability of the screws rusting.

[0029] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 2 further includes a drive component 25, a movable frame 26, and a movable nozzle. The drive component 25 is mounted on the cleaning cylinder 21 and extends along the length of the cleaning cylinder 21. The movable frame 26 is mounted on the drive component 25. Specifically, mounting grooves 215 are provided on the top of both sides of the cleaning cylinder 21, and the mounting grooves 215 extend along the length of the cleaning cylinder 21. The drive component 25 is a lead screw motor, and its lead screw is set in the mounting groove 215 on one side and extends along the length of the cleaning cylinder 21. A guide shaft 251 is provided in the mounting groove 215 on the other side. A nut is sleeved on the lead screw, and a sleeve block is movably sleeved on the guide shaft 251. The nuts and sleeve blocks are fixedly connected to opposite ends of the movable frame 26. When the lead screw motor runs, the nuts reciprocate along the length of the lead screw, thereby driving the movable frame 26 to reciprocate along the length of the cleaning cylinder 21.

[0030] The movable nozzle is mounted on the movable frame 26. Specifically, the movable frame 26 has a mounting rod 261 extending into the cleaning tank 211 at the middle position of the corresponding cleaning tank 211. The movable nozzle includes a semi-circular shell 271 and several nozzles 272. The semi-circular shell 271 is connected to the end of the mounting rod 261. A water receiving pipe is provided inside the mounting rod 261, which is not shown in the figure. Several nozzles 272 are spaced apart on the arc-shaped circumference of the semi-circular shell 271. Several nozzles 272 are connected to a high-pressure water source through the water receiving pipe.

[0031] Since the nozzles 272 are spaced apart on the arc-shaped circumference of the semi-circular shell 271, when several nozzles 272 spray water at the same time, they can form a fan-shaped water curtain to spray and wash the taro in the washing cylinder 21, further increasing the cleanliness of the taro.

[0032] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
