[0018] The vegetable conveyor belt includes: a support frame 1; a metal conveyor belt 2 installed on the support frame 1 for conveying vegetables; baffles 3 fixed on both sides of the support frame 1 for isolating the water storage space for washing; a water pump 4 installed inside the support frame 1 for drawing water for washing, the discharge end of the water pump 4 being equipped with a drain pipe 5 extending to the top of the metal conveyor belt 2 for conveying water for washing; a nozzle 6 installed on the drain pipe 5 for outputting water for washing; and a limiting structure installed on the support frame 1 for isolating vegetables to increase the washing time of vegetables. By setting up the metal conveyor belt 2, the purpose of conveying vegetables to different processing stages is achieved, meeting the basic needs of vegetable processing. By setting up the baffles 3, the water storage space for washing is isolated, avoiding water overflow and waste and a messy processing environment. By setting up the water pump 4, drain pipe 5, and nozzle 6, the washing operation can be carried out simultaneously during the vegetable conveying process, improving processing efficiency. By setting up the limiting structure, the vegetables are isolated and the washing time is increased, ensuring more thorough washing of vegetables and improving the cleanliness and quality of vegetables.

[0019] The limiting structure includes a rotating shaft 9 rotatably mounted on the support frame 1, an adjusting plate 10 fixed on the rotating shaft 9 for isolating vegetables, and a stepper motor 11 mounted on the support frame 1 for driving the adjusting plate 10 to rotate and adjust the isolation state. By setting the rotating shaft 9, the adjusting plate 10 can be rotated around the rotating shaft 9 as the center, providing basic rotational support for subsequent adjustment of the isolation state. By setting the adjusting plate 10, the vegetables are isolated, which can effectively increase the rinsing time of the vegetables during the transportation process, ensuring that the vegetables are cleaned more thoroughly and improving cleanliness. By setting the stepper motor 11, the adjusting plate 10 can be driven to rotate, thereby flexibly adjusting the isolation state to adapt to the cleaning needs of different types and quantities of vegetables, enhancing the practicality and adaptability of the equipment.

[0020] The rotating shafts 9 and adjusting plates 10 are arranged in groups. A transmission roller 12 is fixed to each of the two rotating shafts 9, and a rubber belt 13 for transmission is fitted over the transmission roller 12. Isolation plates 14 for preventing vegetables from falling are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the support frame 1. By arranging the rotating shafts 9 and adjusting plates 10 in groups, the division of the vegetable isolation area is more flexible and can better adapt to different layouts and processing needs. Fixing the transmission rollers 12 to the two rotating shafts 9 and fitting the rubber belts 13 stabilizes the transmission, making the rotating shafts 9 run more smoothly, ensuring the accuracy of the adjusting plate 10's flipping action, and improving the reliability of the equipment operation. Installing isolation plates 14 on the inner walls of both sides of the support frame 1 prevents vegetables from falling during transportation and washing, reducing vegetable loss and ensuring the smoothness of the processing flow.

[0021] A drain pipe 15 for providing a sewage discharge channel is installed on any one of the baffles 3. A protective cap for sealing the drain pipe 15 is detachably installed on the drain pipe 15. An observation window 16 for indicating the sewage status is provided on the other baffle 3. By installing a drain pipe 15 on any one of the baffles 3, a sewage discharge channel is provided, so that the sewage generated from washing vegetables can be discharged in time, avoiding sewage accumulation that affects the washing effect and normal operation of the equipment. The detachable protective cap on the drain pipe 15 provides flexible control over sewage discharge and can effectively seal it when discharge is not needed. The observation window 16 on the other baffle 3 allows the operator to visually observe the sewage status, such as the color and turbidity of the sewage, and then adjust the washing parameters or change the washing water in time, ensuring the quality of vegetable washing.

[0022] The top of the support frame 1 is fixed with a fixing ring 7, which is sleeved on the outside of the drain pipe 5 to stabilize the drain pipe 5. The inlet end of the water pump 4 is sleeved with a filter screen sleeve 8 for filtering the cleaning water. The filter screen sleeve 8 is provided with an elastic ring. By setting the fixing ring 7 on the top of the support frame 1 and sleeved on the outside of the drain pipe 5, the drain pipe 5 is stabilized, effectively preventing the drain pipe 5 from shaking during the transportation of cleaning water. This ensures that the nozzle 6 can spray water onto the vegetables, improving the uniformity and stability of the cleaning process. By sleeved with the filter screen sleeve 8 at the inlet end of the water pump 4, the cleaning water is filtered, which can intercept impurities in the water and prevent impurities from entering the water pump 4 and the drain pipe 5 and causing blockage, thus extending the service life of the equipment. By providing an elastic ring on the filter screen sleeve 8, the filter screen sleeve 8 can fit more tightly on the inlet end of the water pump 4, enhancing the sealing performance.

[0023] The metal conveyor belt 2 includes a sprocket rotatably mounted on the support frame 1 via an adjusting shaft, a chain sleeved on the sprocket for transmission, multiple metal plates mounted on the chain for supporting vegetables, and a servo motor mounted on the support frame 1 for driving the adjusting shaft to rotate. By setting the adjusting shaft to rotatably mount the sprocket, the position and angle of the sprocket can be flexibly adjusted, facilitating the debugging and maintenance of the metal conveyor belt 2 according to actual processing needs. The chain sleeved on the sprocket provides stable transmission, ensuring the continuity and smoothness of the conveyor belt's operation and reducing the shaking and falling of vegetables during transport. The multiple metal plates mounted on the chain effectively support the vegetables, capable of bearing vegetables of different weights and shapes, ensuring the vegetables remain stable during transport and washing. The servo motor, as a power source, drives the sprocket to rotate and move the chain, thus realizing the transport of vegetables.

[0024] Each of the aforementioned metal plates is provided with mesh holes for discharging wastewater. Elastic pads for cushioning impact are installed on the metal plates. Cushioning pads for protecting the surface of vegetables are also installed on the adjusting plate 10 and the separating plate 14. By setting mesh holes on the multiple metal plates, wastewater is facilitated to drain promptly during vegetable transport, preventing wastewater from accumulating on the metal plates and soaking the vegetables, thus ensuring the cleaning quality and grade of the vegetables. The elastic pads on the metal plates cushion impact, reducing collisions and damage to vegetables when placed on the metal plates or during conveyor belt operation, protecting the integrity of the vegetables. The cushioning pads on the adjusting plate 10 and the separating plate 14 further protect the surface of the vegetables, preventing damage from hard contact during transport and separation.

During use, each piece of electrical equipment can be started and operated separately through the electrical control cabinet. The power connection method of each piece of electrical equipment is an existing mature technology and is well known to those in the field, so it will not be described in detail here. In use, the servo motor (Siemens 1FT7 servo motor) is started via the electrical control cabinet to drive the adjusting shaft to rotate. The adjusting shaft drives the sprocket to rotate, the sprocket drives the chain to move, and the chain drives multiple metal plates with elastic pads to move. Vegetables are placed on the metal plates. At the same time, the stepper motor 11 (NEMA 23) is started to drive the rotating shaft 9 to rotate. The rotating shaft 9 drives the adjusting plate 10 to flip to a suitable isolation state. The water pump 4 (IS series) draws the cleaning water through the filter screen sleeve 8 with an elastic ring at the inlet end. The cleaning water is transported through the drain pipe 5 to the nozzle 6 installed on the drain pipe 5 and stabilized by the fixing ring 7. The nozzle 6 sprays water to clean the vegetables on the metal conveyor belt 2. The wastewater is discharged through the mesh on the metal plate. The wastewater status can be observed by the baffle 3 with the observation window 16. When the cleaning water needs to be replaced, the protective cap can be removed.
