Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural product processing, and in particular to a blueberry washing device. Background Technology

[0002] Blueberries belong to the Ericaceae family and the Vaccinium genus. Blueberries are rich in nutrients and have functions such as preventing brain nerve aging, protecting eyesight, strengthening the heart, fighting cancer, softening blood vessels, and enhancing the body's immunity. Due to their high nutritional content, blueberries need to be cleaned first when processing them.

[0003] Existing equipment typically removes all contents at once after cleaning blueberries by directly pouring or scooping them out. This often results in blueberries and impurities being removed together, making it difficult to separate the impurities from the blueberries. During the removal of blueberries, various impurities remaining in the water are easily re-adhered to the surface of the blueberries due to water flow or physical contact and are carried out with them, resulting in an inadequate cleaning effect for the blueberries. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing equipment that easily carries blueberries and impurities out with them after washing, resulting in poor blueberry washing effect, this utility model provides a blueberry washing device that can separate blueberries from impurities, thereby achieving a better blueberry washing effect.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: a blueberry washing device, comprising:

[0006] Base;

[0007] A support frame fixed to the base;

[0008] A rotating cylinder that is rotatably connected to a support frame and has an outlet;

[0009] Two solenoid valves are fixedly connected to both sides of the rotating cylinder;

[0010] A separation cylinder fixed inside a rotating cylinder;

[0011] The rotating mechanism is located on the base;

[0012] The jetting mechanism is located on the separator.

[0013] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism includes: a drive motor fixed to the base, a rotating gear fixed to the rotating cylinder, a drive gear fixed to the output shaft of the drive motor, and the drive gear meshing with the rotating gear.

[0014] Furthermore, the jet mechanism includes: a cover plate snapped onto the rotating cylinder, a jet frame fixed to the rotating cylinder, and a rotary joint fixed to the jet frame.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes an opening and closing mechanism for opening the rotating cylinder. The opening and closing mechanism is provided on the rotating cylinder and includes: a guide frame rotatably connected to the base, the guide frame being fixed to the rotating cylinder, a guide plate fixed to the guide frame, four pressure frames slidably connected to the base, four electric push rods fixed to the base, a base plate slidably connected to the rotating cylinder, and a contact ring fixed to the base plate, the contact ring contacting the four pressure frames.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a sealing mechanism for sealing the separation cylinder, which is located inside the rotating cylinder. The sealing mechanism includes: a partition frame that is slidably connected to the rotating cylinder, a connecting plate that is rotatably connected between the four lower pressure frames, and a compression spring that is fixed between the connecting plate and the partition frame.

[0017] The beneficial effects are: 1. The rotation of the rotating drum causes the blueberries and water inside the drum to rotate. The rotation of the blueberries and water will generate centrifugal force. The impurities and blueberries that are washed off will be thrown against the side wall of the rotating drum by the centrifugal force. The blueberries are intercepted by the separation drum, and the impurities will pass through the separation drum and stick to the side wall of the rotating drum, thus separating the impurities from the blueberries.

[0018] 2. The downward movement of the pressure frame will cause the contact ring and connecting plate to move downward. The downward movement of the connecting plate will cause the separator to move downward through the compression spring. The downward movement of the separator will block the separation cylinder, sealing the impurities between the separator and the separation cylinder. The blueberries and clean water in the rotating cylinder will flow out from the outlet of the rotating cylinder, so that the impurities will not flow out with the blueberries, thus making the blueberry cleaning effect better.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example 1: A blueberry washing device, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes:

[0027] Base 1;

[0028] Support frame 3 welded to base 1;

[0029] A rotating cylinder 5 that is rotatably connected to the support frame 3 and has an outlet;

[0030] Two solenoid valves 51 are fixedly connected to both sides of the rotating cylinder 5;

[0031] Separation cylinder 6 welded inside rotating cylinder 5;

[0032] A rotating mechanism, used to rotate the rotating cylinder 5, is provided on the base 1;

[0033] The jetting mechanism, used for injecting gas, is located on the separator 6.

[0034] The rotating mechanism includes: a drive motor 71 bolted to the base 1, a rotating gear 7 welded to the rotating cylinder 5, and a drive gear 8 fixed to the output shaft of the drive motor 71, wherein the drive gear 8 meshes with the rotating gear 7.

[0035] The jet mechanism includes: a cover plate 9 snapped onto the rotating cylinder 5, a jet frame 10 welded onto the rotating cylinder 5, and a rotary joint 101 fixed onto the jet frame 10.

[0036] It also includes an opening and closing mechanism for opening the rotating cylinder 5. The opening and closing mechanism is provided on the rotating cylinder 5 and includes: a guide frame 11 rotatably connected to the base 1, the guide frame 11 being bolted to the rotating cylinder 5, a guide plate 111 welded to the guide frame 11, four lower pressure frames 12 slidably connected to the base 1, four electric push rods 13 bolted to the base 1, a base plate 14 slidably connected to the rotating cylinder 5, and a contact ring 141 welded to the base plate 14, the contact ring 141 contacting the four lower pressure frames 12.

[0037] It also includes a closing mechanism for closing the separation cylinder 6, which is located inside the rotating cylinder 5. The closing mechanism includes: a partition frame 15 that is slidably connected to the rotating cylinder 5, a connecting plate 16 that is rotatably connected between the four lower pressure frames 12, and a compression spring 17 that is fixed between the connecting plate 16 and the partition frame 15.

[0038] Initially, an air supply pipe is connected to the rotary joint 101. The operator opens the cover 9 on the separator 6 and pours blueberries and water into the rotary joint 5 through the opening of the separator 6. The blueberries and water submerge the lower end of the jet rack 10. The operator then replaces the cover 9 on the separator 6. Air is then injected into the jet rack 10 through the rotary joint 101 via the air supply pipe. The air then escapes from the lower end of the jet rack 10, forming bubbles in the water, causing the blueberries and water to tumble and thus clean the blueberries. After cleaning, the air supply pipe stops injecting air into the jet rack 10 through the rotary joint 101. The operator then starts the drive motor 71. The output shaft of the drive motor 71 drives the drive gear 8 to rotate, which in turn drives... Rotating gear 7 drives the rotating cylinder 5, solenoid valve 51, separating cylinder 6, guide frame 11, guide plate 111, base plate 14, contact ring 141, separator 15, connecting plate 16, and compression spring 17 to rotate. The rotation of rotating cylinder 5 causes the blueberries and water inside to rotate, creating centrifugal force. Impurities and blueberries washed off are thrown against the side wall of rotating cylinder 5 by this centrifugal force. The blueberries are intercepted by separating cylinder 6, while impurities pass through separating cylinder 6 and adhere to the side wall of rotating cylinder 5, thus separating the impurities from the blueberries. After a period of time, the operator turns off drive motor 71, and the drive gear 8, rotating gear 7, rotating cylinder 5, solenoid valve 51, separating cylinder 6, guide frame 11, guide plate 111, and base plate are all rotated. 14. Contact ring 141, separator 15, connecting plate 16, and compression spring 17 stop rotating, and solenoid valve 51 is in its initial position. The operator starts electric push rod 13 and solenoid valve 51. Solenoid valve 51 opens, and water and impurities between separator 6 and rotating cylinder 5 flow out from solenoid valve 51. The telescopic rod of electric push rod 13 drives the lower pressure frame 12 to move downward. The downward movement of lower pressure frame 12 drives contact ring 141 and connecting plate 16 to move downward. The downward movement of connecting plate 16 drives separator 15 to move downward through compression spring 17. The downward movement of separator 15 blocks separator 6, sealing impurities between separator 15 and separator 6. The downward movement of separator 15 contacts rotating cylinder 5 and stops. Connecting plate 141... 6. Continuing to move downwards will compress the compression spring 17. At the same time, the downward movement of the contact ring 141 will drive the bottom plate 14 to move downwards. The downward movement of the bottom plate 14 will no longer block the outlet of the rotating drum 5. The blueberries and water in the rotating drum 5 will flow out from the outlet of the rotating drum 5, so that impurities will not flow out with the blueberries, thus making the blueberry cleaning effect better. After the blueberries and water are completely discharged from the rotating drum 5, the operator closes the solenoid valve 51 and restarts the electric push rod 13. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod 13 drives the lower pressure frame 12 to reset. The lower pressure frame 12 will drive the connecting plate 16, the contact ring 141 and the bottom plate 14 to reset. The connecting plate 16 will cause the compression spring 17 to reset. After the compression spring 17 resets, the connecting plate 16 drives the separator frame 15 through the compression spring 17.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
