Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing and filling equipment, specifically, it relates to an automatic cleaning device for sanitary dead corners of food processing and filling equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the food processing and filling process, the hygiene and cleanliness of equipment are crucial, impacting food quality and safety. However, traditional cleaning methods have several drawbacks: Difficulty in cleaning hard-to-reach areas: Filling equipment has complex structures, with hard-to-reach areas such as pipe interfaces, equipment gaps, and irregularly shaped chambers. Conventional cleaning tools (such as ordinary brushes and cloths) cannot reach these areas, leaving residues and food debris that can breed bacteria, increasing food safety risks. Poor tool compatibility: Different hard-to-reach areas have different shapes (spherical depressions, narrow gaps, irregular curved surfaces, etc.), making it impossible to use a single cleaning tool. This necessitates frequent tool changes, making operation cumbersome and reducing cleaning efficiency. Limited cleaning angle: Traditional cleaning devices have fixed brush head angles, making flexible adjustment difficult. They cannot fully cover the internal bends and tilts of the equipment, affecting cleaning effectiveness. Lack of coordinated cleaning: Focusing only on cleaning localized hard-to-reach areas without addressing the equipment surface and surrounding areas results in residual stains after cleaning. Furthermore, the inconvenience of moving and positioning the device increases the difficulty and time cost of cleaning operations.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automatic cleaning device that can flexibly adapt to different blind spots, adjust at multiple angles, and has collaborative cleaning functions to solve the hygiene and cleaning problems of food processing and filling equipment and ensure the hygiene standards of food production. This is the background requirement for the development of this automatic cleaning device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an automatic cleaning device for the sanitary dead corners of food processing and filling equipment that can overcome or at least partially solve the above problems.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an automatic cleaning device for sanitary dead corners of food processing and filling equipment, including a cleaning body, and further including: a fixed slide groove fixedly connected inside the cleaning body, a sliding wheel being rotatably connected to the front of the fixed slide groove, a drive motor being installed inside the cleaning body, the output end of the drive motor being connected to the sliding wheel to drive the sliding wheel to roll on the fixed slide groove; a connecting frame being rotatably connected to the center of the sliding wheel, a sliding plate being rotatably connected to the other end of the connecting frame, a rotating shaft being fixedly connected to the front of the sliding plate, the top of the rotating shaft being rotatably connected to one end of a first connecting shaft, the other end of the first connecting shaft being rotatably connected to one end of a first rotating shaft, the other end of the first rotating shaft being rotatably connected to one end of a second connecting shaft, the other end of the second connecting shaft being rotatably connected to one end of a second rotating shaft, the other end of the second rotating shaft being rotatably connected to a cleaning head, and a small cleaning brush being inserted into the other end of the cleaning head.
[0006] Furthermore, the cleaning head and the small cleaning brush are each equipped with irregularly shaped magnets, and the small cleaning brushes include interchangeable spherical cleaning brushes, flat cleaning brushes, and cylindrical cleaning brushes.
[0007] Furthermore, the cleaning head can rotate 100° axially on the second rotating shaft, the second connecting shaft can rotate 100° axially on the first rotating shaft, and the first connecting shaft can rotate 100° axially on the rotating shaft.
[0008] Furthermore, a fixing plate and a fixing block are fixedly connected to the periphery of the cleaning body. A fixing shaft is rotatably connected through the fixing plate. A small gear is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing shaft away from the fixing plate. A main gear meshes with the periphery of the small gear.
[0009] Furthermore, a cleaning brush is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed shaft away from the main gear.
[0010] Furthermore, a connecting bracket is rotatably connected to the front of the fixing block, and a roller is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting bracket away from the fixing block.
[0011] Furthermore, the drive motor inside the cleaning body drives the sliding wheels to roll on the fixed slide groove, providing the power for horizontal movement of the entire cleaning mechanism. The sliding wheels drive the slide plate to move through the connecting frame. The rotating shaft on the slide plate converts the linear motion into the composite motion of the cleaning head through a multi-stage linkage mechanism composed of the first connecting shaft, the first rotating shaft, the second connecting shaft, and the second rotating shaft. The cleaning head can rotate 100° along the axial direction on the second rotating shaft. The second connecting shaft and the first connecting shaft can also rotate 100° on the first rotating shaft and the rotating shaft, respectively, realizing multi-angle adjustment of the cleaning head in three-dimensional space. The small cleaning brush connected by the irregularly shaped magnet can be quickly replaced with a spherical, flat, or cylindrical shape to adapt to different shapes of sanitary dead corners such as pipe inner walls, gaps, and corners.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: 1. This utility model uses a drive motor to drive the sliding wheel to roll in a fixed groove. Combined with the linkage structure consisting of a connecting frame, a sliding plate, and multiple sets of rotating shafts, the cleaning head can flexibly change position and angle, and can reach into different parts of the equipment to effectively clean dead corners.
[0013] 2. The cleaning head and small cleaning brush are equipped with irregularly shaped magnets. The small cleaning brushes are available in interchangeable types such as spherical, flat, and cylindrical shapes. The appropriate brush head can be quickly replaced according to the different dead angle shapes of the filling equipment (such as depressions, gaps, curved surfaces, etc.) to improve the cleaning targeting and effect.
[0014] 3. The cleaning head, the second connecting shaft, and the first connecting shaft can rotate 180° axially on their respective rotating shafts, allowing the cleaning device to adapt to complex spatial angles and thoroughly clean hard-to-reach areas in special structures (such as internal bends and narrow chambers of equipment) to reduce omissions.
[0015] 4. The cleaning body is equipped with a fixed plate and fixed block, which, together with the fixed shaft, pinion, and main gear, drive the cleaning brush to assist in cleaning the surface of the equipment and some areas prone to dirt accumulation. The design of the connecting bracket and rollers makes it easy for the device to move and position around the equipment, improving the convenience of operation and structural stability, and helping to achieve efficient cleaning operations.

The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0020] Example: Refer to Figures 1-4An automatic cleaning device for sanitary dead corners of food processing and filling equipment includes a cleaning body 1 and a fixed slide 4 fixedly connected inside the cleaning body 1. A sliding wheel 41 is rotatably connected to the front of the fixed slide 4. A drive motor is installed inside the cleaning body 1, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to the sliding wheel 41 to drive the sliding wheel 41 to roll on the fixed slide 4. A connecting frame 42 is rotatably connected to the center of the sliding wheel 41. A sliding plate 43 is rotatably connected to the other end of the connecting frame 42. A rotating shaft 44 is fixedly connected to the front of the sliding plate 43. The top of the rotating shaft 44 is rotatably connected to one end of a first connecting shaft 45. The other end of the first connecting shaft 45 is rotatably connected to one end of a first rotating shaft 46. The other end of the first rotating shaft 46 is rotatably connected to one end of a second connecting shaft 47. The other end of the second connecting shaft 47 is rotatably connected to one end of a second rotating shaft 48. The other end of the second rotating shaft 48 is rotatably connected to a cleaning head 49. A small cleaning brush 410 is inserted into the other end of the cleaning head 49.
[0021] The cleaning head 49 and the small cleaning brush 410 are respectively equipped with irregularly shaped magnets. The small cleaning brush 410 includes interchangeable spherical cleaning brushes, flat cleaning brushes and cylindrical cleaning brushes.
[0022] The cleaning head 49 can rotate 180° axially on the second rotating shaft 48, the second connecting shaft 47 can rotate 180° axially on the first rotating shaft 46, and the first connecting shaft 45 can rotate 180° axially on the rotating shaft 44.
[0023] The cleaning body 1 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 2 and a fixed block 3. A fixed shaft 21 is rotatably connected through the fixed plate 2. A small gear 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed shaft 21 away from the fixed plate 2. A main gear 23 meshes with the periphery of the small gear 22.
[0024] A cleaning brush 24 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed shaft 21 away from the main gear 23.
[0025] The front of the fixed block 3 is rotatably connected to the connecting bracket 31, and the end of the connecting bracket 31 away from the fixed block 3 is rotatably connected to the roller 32.
[0026] The drive motor inside the cleaning body 1 drives the sliding wheel 41 to roll on the fixed slide groove 4, providing the power for horizontal movement of the entire cleaning mechanism. The sliding wheel 41 drives the slide plate 43 to move through the connecting frame 42. The rotating shaft 44 on the slide plate 43 converts the linear motion into the composite motion of the cleaning head 49 through a multi-stage linkage mechanism composed of the first connecting shaft 45, the first rotating shaft 46, the second connecting shaft 47, and the second rotating shaft 48. The cleaning head 49 can rotate 180° axially on the second rotating shaft 48. The second connecting shaft 47 and the first connecting shaft 45 can also rotate 180° on the first rotating shaft 46 and the rotating shaft 44 respectively, realizing the multi-angle adjustment of the cleaning head 49 in three-dimensional space. The small cleaning brush 410 connected by the irregular magnet can be quickly replaced with a spherical, flat, or cylindrical shape to adapt to different shapes of sanitary dead corners such as pipe inner walls, gaps, and corners.
[0027] This invention uses a drive motor inside the cleaning body 1 to drive the sliding wheel 41 to roll on the fixed slide groove 4, providing the power for horizontal movement of the entire cleaning mechanism. The sliding wheel 41 drives the slide plate 43 to move through the connecting frame 42. The rotating shaft 44 on the slide plate 43 converts the linear motion into the composite motion of the cleaning head 49 through a multi-stage linkage mechanism composed of the first connecting shaft 45, the first rotating shaft 46, the second connecting shaft 47, and the second rotating shaft 48. The cleaning head 49 can rotate 180° axially on the second rotating shaft 48. The second connecting shaft 47 and the first connecting shaft 45 can also rotate 180° on the first rotating shaft 46 and the rotating shaft 44, respectively, realizing multi-angle adjustment of the cleaning head 49 in three-dimensional space. The small cleaning brush 410 connected by the irregular magnet can be quickly replaced with a spherical, flat, or cylindrical shape to adapt to different shapes of sanitary dead corners such as pipe inner walls, gaps, and corners.
[0028] The fixed shaft 21 meshes with the main gear 23 via the pinion 22, enabling the cleaning brush 24 to rotate and assist in cleaning the surface of the equipment and larger areas. The connecting bracket 31 and roller 32 on the fixed block 3 are used for the movement and positioning of the device on the surface of the equipment, ensuring that the cleaning head 49 accurately reaches the target position. The device is moved to the area to be cleaned by the roller 32, and the fixed plate 2 and fixed block 3 are used for initial positioning. The drive motor drives the sliding wheel 41, and the angle of the cleaning head 49 is adjusted by the linkage mechanism to align it with the dead corner. The appropriate small cleaning brush 410 is replaced according to the type of dead corner, and the cleaning head 49 is started. At the same time, the outer cleaning brush 24 cleans the surrounding area simultaneously. The sliding wheel 41 rolls along the fixed slide 4, driving the cleaning head 49 to clean the dead corners in different positions in turn until the cleaning of the entire area is completed.
[0029] The cleaning head 49 achieves linear movement and multi-angle rotation through a single drive motor, simplifying the structure while improving flexibility.
