The output terminal of the temperature sensor 111 is connected to the input terminal of the microcontroller 400, and the output terminal of the microcontroller 400 is connected to the input terminals of the transfer pump 130 and the heating element 120 respectively. The top of the water storage tank 110 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sludge collection seat 210. The heating element 120 includes a protective shell and an electric heating plate. The electric heating plate is of model DB-1, and the temperature sensor 111 is of model PT1000.

[0037] The front of the water storage tank 110 is connected to the water inlet pipe 112, and the front of the sludge collection seat 210 is connected to the drain pipe 212. The top of the sludge collection seat 210 is fixedly connected to the slide rail 211, and the bottom of the placement seat 240 is provided with a pulley 241.

[0038] like Figure 1-4As shown, a temperature sensor 111 is installed on one side of the inner cavity of the water storage tank 110, and its output is connected to the input of the microcontroller 400. The main purpose is to monitor the water temperature in the water storage tank 110 in real time and ensure that the water temperature is kept within a suitable range to meet the needs of subsequent heating and cleaning. The output of the microcontroller 400 is connected to the input of the transfer pump 130 and the heating element 120 respectively, so that the microcontroller 400 can intelligently control the flow rate of the transfer pump 130 and the heating power of the heating element 120 according to the preset program and real-time data, ensuring the efficient operation of the rinsing unit 100.

[0039] In use, firstly, an appropriate amount of water is injected into the water storage tank 110 through the water injection pipe 112, and the electric heating element 120 is activated to heat the water to a suitable temperature. During the heating process, the temperature sensor 111 monitors the water temperature in real time, and the heating power of the electric heating element 120 is adjusted by the microcontroller 400 to ensure that the water temperature is maintained within a suitable range, such as 50 degrees Celsius to 55 degrees Celsius. Then, the poultry is placed on the placement seat 240, and the poultry is positioned by the positioning element 250. After positioning, the first cylinder 230 is activated by the microcontroller 400. The first cylinder 230 drives the movable seat 220 and the placement seat 240 to the evisceration and cutting position. Then, the reduction motor 340 is activated. The cutting blade 360 ​​is driven to rotate by the transmission component 350. During the rotation, the second cylinder 330 drives the support 320 and the cutting blade 360 ​​to adjust their positions so that the cutting blade 360 ​​comes into contact with the poultry. The rotating cutting blade 360 ​​can then perform evisceration on the poultry. At the same time, the transmission pump 130 delivers hot water through the spring tube 140 and the three-way tube 150 to the inner cavity of the spray pipe 160 and the shield 370, respectively. The hot water is sprayed onto the surfaces of the cutting blade 360 ​​and the placement seat 240, thereby cleaning the cutting blade 360 ​​and the placement seat 240, effectively removing blood and impurities from their surfaces, significantly improving the hygiene conditions of poultry evisceration, and preventing cross-contamination.
