Furthermore, the directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, such as "up," "down," "left," and "right," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrative purposes and not for limiting the creation of this utility model.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0019] Example: A coffee extraction tank rinsing device, see attached document. Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 3 The system includes a conveyor line 1, a limiting mechanism 2, and a cleaning mechanism. The conveyor line 1 is used to transport the extraction tank in a horizontal direction. The limiting mechanism 2 is disposed on the conveyor line 1 and can move along the conveying direction of the conveyor line 1. The limiting mechanism 2 is used to limit the extraction tank transported on the conveyor line 1, and the extraction tank is inverted on the limiting mechanism 2. The cleaning mechanism can spray water from below the limiting mechanism 2 upward through the limiting mechanism 2 into the extraction tank to rinse the inner wall of the extraction tank.

[0020] When rinsing the extraction tank, the extraction tank is inverted and placed on the limiting mechanism 2 on the conveyor line 1. Then, the extraction tank is transported by the conveyor mechanism. When the extraction tank moves to the cleaning mechanism, water is sprayed onto the inner wall of the extraction tank by the cleaning mechanism. The water flow causes the coffee grounds on the inner wall of the extraction tank to flow downwards out of the extraction tank. This not only ensures the cleanliness of the cleaning but also eliminates the need for manual rinsing, greatly saving manpower.

[0021] Specifically, the conveyor line 1 includes a transmission chain 11, sprockets 12, and drive shafts 13. There are two transmission chains 11 arranged side by side. Two sprockets 12 are provided at both ends of each transmission chain 11, and the transmission chains 11 are arranged in a closed loop around the corresponding two sprockets 12. There are two drive shafts 13, which are respectively provided at both ends of the transmission chain 11. The drive shafts 13 are coaxial with the two sprockets 12 at both ends of the transmission chain 11, and the ends of the drive shafts 13 are fixedly connected to the coaxial sprockets 12.

[0022] Specifically, the limiting mechanism 2 includes side baffles 21 and support plates 22. At least one set of side baffles 21 is provided, with two side baffles in each set. The two side baffles 21 of the same set are respectively positioned on top of the two conveyor chains 11, and the side baffles 21 are vertical and parallel to the conveying direction of the conveyor chains 11. Two support plates 22 are provided, horizontally positioned with their length direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor chains 11. Both ends of the support plates 22 are fixedly connected to the two conveyor chains 11. The side baffles 21 are positioned between the two support plates 22, and the extraction tank is supported on the two support plates 22.

[0023] The extraction vessel is inverted on two support plates 22 and the two sides of the extraction vessel are limited by two sets of side baffles 21.

[0024] Specifically, the limiting mechanism 2 also includes a transmission baffle 23. Two transmission baffles 23 are provided, and the two transmission baffles 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the two opposite sides of the top of the two support plates 22. The transmission baffles 23 are perpendicular to the support plates 22 and parallel to the support plates 22 in the length direction.

[0025] By setting the transfer baffle 23, the front and rear sides of the extraction tank along the conveying direction of the conveyor line 1 can be limited.

[0026] Specifically, the limiting mechanism 2 also includes a connecting plate 24. The bottom of each side baffle 21 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 24 that is connected to the transmission chain 11, and the connecting plate 24 extends toward another transmission chain 11.

[0029] In some embodiments, the cleaning tube 3 can be moved vertically to extend the nozzle into the extraction tank above the nozzle, so as to better rinse the various parts of the inner wall of the extraction tank.

[0030] Specifically, this embodiment also includes a cleaning hood 4, which is placed above the cleaning mechanism, and the extraction tank can enter and exit the cleaning hood 4 along the transmission direction of the conveyor line 1.

[0031] Specifically, this embodiment also includes a wastewater tank 5, which is located below the cleaning mechanism to contain the water left after the spray extraction tank.
