Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable processing technology, and in particular to an integrated cabbage processing device. Background Technology

[0002] As one of my country's major vegetable crops, Chinese cabbage typically undergoes multiple pre-processing steps after harvest, including removing yellow leaves, cutting off roots, and surface cleaning, before it can be sold in the market or further processed. Currently, these processes mostly rely on manual operation or are completed in segments using single-function mechanical equipment. This is not only inefficient and labor-intensive, but also results in poor processing consistency, easily causing damage to the cabbage or incomplete cleaning. While some existing automated processing equipment can replace manual labor to some extent, it generally suffers from low functional integration and disjointed processing flows. For example, it is difficult to achieve uniform processing of the cabbage when removing yellow leaves, resulting in some yellow leaves remaining or excessive cutting that damages the inner leaves. In the cleaning stage, there is often a lack of effective rotation coordination mechanisms, limiting the effectiveness of rinsing and drying. Furthermore, poor coordination between processes can easily cause the cabbage to shift during processing, further affecting processing accuracy and finished product quality. Therefore, how to achieve continuous, precise, and comprehensive automated processing of Chinese cabbage in an integrated device, especially achieving stable rotation of the cabbage during its movement and coordinated operation of each process, has become a key technical challenge for improving the efficiency and quality of Chinese cabbage pre-processing.

[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be particularly noted that the following embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Similarly, the following embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 7 This embodiment provides an integrated cabbage processing device, including a conveying assembly 1, a clamping assembly 2, a leaf-cutting assembly 3, a root-cutting assembly 4, and a cleaning assembly 5. The conveying assembly 1 includes a frame assembly 11 and a base 12. The base 12 is disposed on the frame assembly 11 and is rotatable relative to the frame assembly 11. The base 12 is used to hold cabbages. The clamping assembly 2 is disposed on the frame assembly 11 and includes a clamping arm 21 and a transport assembly 22. The transport assembly 22 is provided with the clamping arm 21, which is used to clamp the cabbage. The leaf-cutting assembly 3 includes a first adjustment assembly 31 and a first cutting assembly 32. The first adjustment assembly 31 is disposed on the frame assembly 11. On frame group 11, the first cutting group 32 is set on the first adjusting group 31, and the first cutting group 32 is used to cut the leaves around the cabbage; the root cutting component 4 includes the second adjusting group 41 and the second cutting group 42. The second adjusting group 41 is set on the frame group 11, and the second cutting group 42 is set on the second adjusting group 41. The second cutting group 42 is used to cut the root of the cabbage; the cleaning component 5 is set on the frame group 11. The cleaning component 5 includes the rinsing group 51 and the blowing group 52. The rinsing group 51 and the blowing group 52 are arranged sequentially along the transport direction of the transport group 22. The rinsing group 51 is used to rinse the cabbage, and the blowing group 52 is used to dry the water on the cabbage.

[0020] In this embodiment, the frame assembly 11 constitutes the main support structure of the device and can be constructed using industrial aluminum profiles, offering the advantage of modular assembly. The base 12 serves as the cabbage-carrying platform, achieving active rotation relative to the frame assembly 11 through bearing connections, allowing the cabbage to rotate continuously during transport. The transport assembly 22 in the clamping component 2 extends along the frame assembly 11, forming a closed-loop transport path; the clamping arms 21 are arranged in opposite directions, achieving opening and closing actions through mechanical transmission, and the annular grooves on their inner sides can adapt to the shapes of cabbages of different sizes, ensuring clamping stability.

[0021] The first adjustment group 31 of the leaf-cutting assembly 3 employs a linear motion mechanism to drive the first cutting group 32 for radial adjustment, adapting to the cutting needs of cabbages of different diameters. The first cutting group 32 preferably uses a high-speed rotating circular saw blade as the cutting tool, with a limiting structure controlling the cutting depth. The second adjustment group 41 of the root-cutting assembly 4 also employs a precision linear motion mechanism, allowing the second cutting group 42 to be height-adjustable. The second cutting group 42 is positioned directly above the base 12, achieving root removal through precise control of the cutting position. The rinsing group 51 of the cleaning assembly 5 adopts a multi-angle spray design, including horizontal and vertical nozzle arrays; the blowing group 52 uses a centrifugal fan 522 to generate directional airflow. Both are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction to form a continuous processing flow.

[0022] During operation, the cabbage is conveyed to each workstation by the clamping assembly 2, while the base 12 continuously rotates to ensure even exposure of the cabbage. At the leaf-cutting station, the rotating cabbage works in conjunction with the radially adjustable first cutting group 32 to precisely remove yellow leaves; at the root-cutting station, the height-adjustable second cutting group 42 performs a smooth cut at the root; subsequently, the cabbage enters the cleaning station, where it is first rinsed at multiple angles to remove surface impurities, and then dried by a powerful airflow. This embodiment achieves continuous automation of the cabbage pretreatment process. The rotation of the base 12 ensures uniformity of processing at each stage, effectively avoiding the repetitive positioning problems in traditional segmented operations. This not only guarantees consistent processing quality but also significantly improves operational efficiency while reducing quality fluctuations caused by manual intervention.

[0023] In some embodiments, the frame assembly 11 includes a first profile support 111, a plurality of chain conveyor rollers, a first drive unit 112, and a conveyor chain plate 113. The plurality of chain conveyor rollers are disposed on the first profile support 111; the first drive unit 112 is disposed on the first profile support 111, and the output end of the first drive unit 112 is connected to at least one chain conveyor roller in a transmission connection; the conveyor chain plate 113 is sleeved on the chain conveyor rollers, and a base 12 is provided on the conveyor chain plate 113.

[0024] In this embodiment, the frame assembly 11 serves as the supporting foundation for the entire device. The first profile support 111 is constructed using standard industrial aluminum profiles, ensuring structural stability and ease of expansion. Chain conveyor rollers are arranged parallel to each other on the support, forming a continuous conveying track. Anti-slip textures can be applied to their surface to enhance transmission reliability. The first drive unit 112 preferably uses a geared motor, driving at least one chain conveyor roller to rotate via chain drive or gear drive. The conveyor chain plate 113 is constructed from modular chain plates, with the base 12 fixedly mounted on the chain plate surface, enabling step-by-step conveying of the cabbage as the chain plate moves. Preferably, deep groove ball bearings are installed at both ends of the chain conveyor rollers, effectively reducing running resistance and extending service life.

[0025] In this embodiment, the first drive unit 112 drives the chain conveyor roller to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor chain plate 113 to circulate along a predetermined path. The base 12, fixed to the chain plate, moves with the chain plate, sequentially conveying the cabbage to each processing station. This chain plate conveyor structure features high load-bearing capacity and stable operation, ensuring that the cabbage maintains a stable posture during processing. Simultaneously, the modular design of the conveyor chain plate 113 facilitates maintenance and replacement, and the conveying length can be flexibly adjusted according to actual production needs, providing a reliable material flow foundation for subsequent processing steps. This embodiment effectively solves the problems of low positioning accuracy and slippage in traditional conveying devices, providing a stable material conveying guarantee for automated processing.

[0026] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly 1 further includes a second drive unit, a first bearing housing, a first bearing, and a first rotating shaft. The second drive unit is disposed on the conveying chain plate 113; the first bearing housing is disposed on the conveying chain plate 113; the first bearing is disposed on the first bearing housing; the first rotating shaft is sleeved with the first bearing, and the base 12 is rotatably connected to the second drive unit through the first rotating shaft.

[0027] In this embodiment, the conveying assembly 1 achieves the active rotation function of the base 12 by adding a rotary drive mechanism. The second drive unit is fixedly mounted on the conveyor chain plate 113, preferably a micro geared motor, and its output end is connected to the first rotating shaft through a coupling. The first bearing housing is a cast or machined part, fixed to the surface of the chain plate by bolts, and a first bearing is installed inside to form a stable support structure. The first rotating shaft passes through the center of the base 12, and its two ends are respectively engaged with the second drive unit and the first bearing to transmit power to the base 12. Preferably, the first bearing is a sealed deep groove ball bearing, which can effectively prevent moisture and impurities from entering and ensure long-term stable operation in humid environments.

[0028] During operation, the second drive unit drives the first rotating shaft to rotate, and the base 12 rotates simultaneously with the horizontal movement of the chain plate, supported by bearings. This combined motion allows the cabbage to continuously change angles during transport, ensuring that all parts are evenly exposed to subsequent processing stations. The rotating base 12 not only solves the problem of uneven processing in traditional fixed bearing platforms, but also avoids positioning errors caused by inertial displacement of the cabbage through active rotation. This provides a precise angle control basis for processes such as leaf cutting and rinsing, significantly improving processing quality and automation.

[0029] In some embodiments, the transport assembly 22 includes a second profile bracket 221, a third profile bracket 222, a third drive unit 223, a first adapter plate 224, a first sprocket 225, a second adapter plate 226, a second sprocket 227, and a first chain 228. The second profile bracket 221 is disposed on one side of the first profile bracket 111; the third profile bracket 222 is disposed opposite to the second profile bracket 221, and the third profile bracket 222 is also disposed on one side of the first profile bracket 111; the third drive unit 22... 3 is set on the second profile bracket 221; the first adapter plate 224 is set on the second profile bracket 221; the first sprocket 225 is rotatably set on the first adapter plate 224, and the first sprocket 225 is connected to the third drive unit 223; the second adapter plate 226 is set on the third profile bracket 222; the second sprocket 227 is rotatably set on the second adapter plate 226; the first chain 228 is sleeved on the periphery of the first sprocket 225 and the second sprocket 227, and a clamping arm 21 is provided on one side of the first chain 228.

[0030] In this embodiment, the transport group 22 adopts a double-sided synchronous transmission structure to achieve continuous conveying of the clamping arms 21. The second profile bracket 221 and the third profile bracket 222 are arranged parallel to each other on both sides of the first profile bracket 111, forming a stable portal frame. The third drive unit 223 is fixed to the second profile bracket 221, preferably using a geared motor with braking function, which drives the first sprocket 225 to rotate through chain drive or synchronous belt. The first adapter plate 224 and the second adapter plate 226 serve as the mounting base 12 of the sprockets, respectively, and are formed by bending steel plates and connected to the profile brackets by bolts. The first sprocket 225 and the second sprocket 227 are respectively mounted on the two side adapter plates, and the first chain 228 surrounds the two sprockets to form a closed-loop transmission path. Preferably, the chain adopts a double-row roller chain structure, which can effectively improve the transmission stability and load-bearing capacity; the clamping arms 21 are fixed at equal intervals on the outside of the chain, and realize the step-by-step conveying of the cabbage with the movement of the chain.

[0031] When the transport unit 22 is in operation, the third drive unit 223 drives the first sprocket 225 to rotate, which in turn drives the entire conveying system through the first chain 228. The symmetrically arranged profile supports on both sides ensure the stability of the transmission system, and the chain drive method features strong load-bearing capacity and good synchronization. In this embodiment, the clamping arm 21 can smoothly transport the cabbage sequentially to each processing station, while providing a reliable moving platform for subsequent clamping actions; the continuous motion characteristics of the chain drive ensure the stability of the processing cycle, and the double-sided support structure effectively avoids the skew problem caused by unilateral force, providing reliable material conveying assurance for the automated processing flow.

[0032] In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 2 further includes a fourth drive unit 23, a first slide groove, a first folding arm 24, and two second folding arms 25. The fourth drive unit 23 is disposed on the first chain 228. The first slide groove is disposed on the housing of the fourth drive unit 23 and is horizontally disposed. The clamping arm 21 is slidably connected to the first slide groove in the horizontal direction. The first folding arm 24 is connected to the rotating end of the fourth drive unit 23. The two second folding arms 25 are respectively disposed at both ends of the first folding arm 24 and are hinged to the first folding arm 24. There are two clamping arms 21, and one clamping arm 21 is hinged to the other end of one second folding arm 25. The two clamping arms 21 move towards or away from each other. The inner side of the clamping arm 21 is provided with an annular groove, which is adapted to the outer periphery of the cabbage.

[0033] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 2 employs a multi-link mechanism to achieve precise clamping. The fourth drive unit 23 is fixed to the first chain 228 and moves synchronously with the chain. A first groove is machined on its outer shell to serve as a guide structure for the clamping arm 21. The first folding arm 24 is directly connected to the output end of the fourth drive unit 23, converting rotational motion into oscillating motion. Two second folding arms 25 are respectively hinged to both ends of the first folding arm 24, forming a symmetrical linkage mechanism. The clamping arm 21 is connected to the second folding arms 25 through hinge points, while its bottom slides into the first groove. This double constraint ensures the motion accuracy during clamping. The annular groove on the inner side of the clamping arm 21 is covered with a flexible material, adapting to different diameter cabbage shapes, providing stable clamping force while avoiding damage to the cabbage surface. Preferably, the fourth drive unit 23 uses a servo motor with an encoder, enabling precise control of the clamping force.

[0034] When the clamping mechanism is in operation, the fourth drive unit 23 drives the first folding arm 24 to rotate, and through the linkage of the second folding arm 25, the two clamping arms 21 are guided along the first sliding groove to open and close synchronously. When clamping the cabbage, the two clamping arms 21 move towards each other, and the inner annular groove tightly fits the outer edge of the cabbage to form a stable covering. This multi-link clamping structure has self-centering characteristics and can automatically adapt to different sizes of cabbage, ensuring that the cabbage is always in the center position during the clamping process. At the same time, the flexible contact design effectively prevents damage to the vegetables caused by excessive clamping force, provides a reliable positioning basis for subsequent processing steps, and significantly improves processing accuracy and product qualification rate.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first adjustment group 31 includes a fourth profile support 311, a fifth drive unit 312, a first lead screw group 313, and a fifth profile support 314. The fourth profile support 311 is disposed on the first profile support 111; the fifth drive unit 312 is disposed on the fourth profile support 311; the first lead screw group 313 is disposed on the fourth profile support 311, and the first lead screw group 313 includes a first lead screw and a first lead screw nut. The first lead screw is connected to the fifth drive unit 312 in a transmission manner, and the first lead screw nut is sleeved on the first lead screw. The first lead screw extends along a first direction a; the fifth profile support 314 is disposed on the first lead screw nut, and the first cutting group 32 is disposed on the fifth profile support 314.

[0036] In this embodiment, the first adjustment group 31 uses a precision lead screw transmission mechanism to achieve radial position adjustment of the first cutting group 32. The fourth profile bracket 311 is vertically fixed on the first profile bracket 111, forming the mounting base of the adjustment mechanism. The fifth drive unit 312 preferably uses a stepper motor, which is directly connected to the first lead screw through a coupling. The first lead screw group 313 adopts a ball screw structure, wherein the first lead screw extends horizontally, and the first lead screw nut is fixedly connected to the fifth profile bracket 314 by bolts. The fifth profile bracket 314 serves as the bearing platform of the first cutting group 32, and forms a sliding fit with the fourth profile bracket 311 through a linear guide rail to ensure smooth movement. Preferably, the first lead screw is provided with support end and fixed end bearing seats at both ends, which can effectively eliminate transmission backlash and improve positioning accuracy.

[0037] When the adjustment mechanism is in operation, the fifth drive unit 312 drives the first lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives the first lead screw nut to move along the lead screw axis, thereby driving the fifth profile support 314 and the first cutting group 32 to perform radial feeding. This lead screw transmission method has a self-locking characteristic, which can keep the set position from deviating and ensure the stability of the cutting depth. By precisely controlling the rotation angle of the fifth drive unit 312, the precise distance between the first cutting group 32 and the rotating cabbage can be adjusted to adapt to the leaf cutting needs of cabbages with different diameters. The precision adjustment mechanism of this embodiment effectively solves the problem of poor adaptability of traditional fixed cutting devices and provides a reliable technical guarantee for high-quality leaf cutting operations.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first cutting group 32 includes a first limiting member 321, a sixth driving unit 323, and a first saw blade 324. The first limiting member 321 is disposed on the fifth profile support 314 and has a first slot 322 facing the base 12. The sixth driving unit 323 is disposed on the fifth profile support 314, and the first saw blade 324 is disposed in the first limiting member 321. A portion of the first saw blade 324 protrudes from the first slot 322 by a first preset length. The sixth driving unit 323 is connected to the first saw blade 324 in a transmission connection.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first cutting group 32 employs a limiting protection structure to ensure the safety of the leaf-cutting operation. The first limiting member 321 is fixed to the front end of the fifth profile support 314, and its interior forms a cavity to accommodate the first saw blade 324. The first slot 322 is opened at the bottom of the limiting member and faces the base 12. The sixth drive unit 323 is fixed to the fifth profile support 314 via a mounting base, and uses a high-speed motor in conjunction with a reduction mechanism to directly drive the first saw blade 324 to rotate via a shaft connection. A portion of the first saw blade 324 protrudes from the first slot 322, and the protrusion length is precisely controlled by the internal structure of the limiting member. Preferably, the first limiting member 321 is made of cast aluminum alloy, with a wear-resistant bushing on the inner wall, and the edges of the first slot 322 are rounded to avoid scratching the cabbage. Furthermore, the first saw blade 324 can be a cutting blade with specially treated saw teeth, ensuring cutting efficiency while reducing damage to the internal tissues of the cabbage.

[0040] When the cutting unit is working, the sixth drive unit 323 drives the first saw blade 324 to rotate at high speed. When the rotating cabbage passes the cutting station, the saw blade portion protruding from the first slot 322 cuts the outer leaves of the cabbage. The first limiting member 321 not only fixes the saw blade, but its slot also limits the cutting depth of the saw blade, preventing damage to the edible parts inside the cabbage due to excessive cutting. Combined with the rotating base 12, it achieves precise removal of yellow leaves from the cabbage, ensuring both cutting effect and product integrity, effectively solving the problem of damage to cabbage caused by traditional cutting methods.

[0041] In some embodiments, the second adjustment group 41 includes a sixth profile support 411, a seventh drive unit 412, a second lead screw group 413, and a seventh profile support 414. The sixth profile support 411 is disposed on the first profile support 111; the seventh drive unit 412 is disposed on the sixth profile support 411; the second lead screw group 413 is disposed on the sixth profile support 411, and the second lead screw group 413 includes a second lead screw and a second lead screw nut. The second lead screw is connected to the seventh drive unit 412 in a transmission manner, and the second lead screw nut is sleeved on the second lead screw. The second lead screw extends along the second direction b; the seventh profile support 414 is disposed on the second lead screw nut, and the second cutting group 42 is disposed on the seventh profile support 414.

[0042] In this embodiment, the second adjustment group 41 uses a vertical screw drive mechanism to adjust the height of the second cutting group 42. The sixth profile bracket 411 spans above the first profile bracket 111, forming the mounting base for the root cutting mechanism. The seventh drive unit 412 is fixed to the top of the sixth profile bracket 411 and connected to the upper end of the second screw via a coupling. The second screw group 413 is arranged vertically, and the second screw nut is fixedly connected to the seventh profile bracket 414 via a flange. The seventh profile bracket 414 serves as the mounting platform for the second cutting group 42 and forms a sliding fit with the sixth profile bracket 411 via a linear guide rail. Preferably, the second screw is a precision ball screw, coupled with an anti-reverse mechanism, to ensure reliable locking at any position.

[0043] When the adjustment mechanism is in operation, the seventh drive unit 412 drives the second lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives the second lead screw nut to move vertically, thereby precisely adjusting the working height of the seventh profile support 414 and the second cutting group 42. This vertical adjustment mechanism can flexibly set the cutting depth according to different cabbage varieties and customer needs. The precise positioning characteristics of the lead screw drive ensure the repeatability of the cutting operation, avoiding product quality fluctuations caused by inconsistent cutting depths, and providing a reliable technical guarantee for standardized production.

[0044] In some embodiments, the second cutting group 42 further includes a second limiting member 421, an eighth driving unit 422, and a second saw blade 423. The second limiting member 421 is disposed on the seventh profile support 414 and is located above the middle part of the base 12. The eighth driving unit 422 is disposed on the seventh profile support 414. The second saw blade 423 is disposed on one side of the second limiting member 421 and is located below the second limiting member 421 and at a distance of a second preset length from the second limiting member 421. The eighth driving unit 422 is connected to the second saw blade 423 in a transmission connection.

[0045] In this embodiment, the second cutting group 42 adopts a root-cutting structure with a limiting baffle and a saw blade. The second limiting member 421 is fixed to the bottom of the seventh profile support 414, located directly above the base 12, and its bottom plane serves as the positioning reference for the root of the cabbage. The eighth driving unit 422 is fixed to the seventh profile support 414 via a mounting base and drives the second saw blade 423 to rotate at high speed. The second saw blade 423 is located below the second limiting member 421, and the two maintain a fixed vertical distance to form a second preset length. Preferably, the second limiting member 421 is made of stainless steel plate, and the bottom edge is blunted to avoid damaging the cabbage; the second saw blade 423 is a thin cutting blade, which can reduce cutting resistance and ensure a flat cut surface. Furthermore, the second limiting member 421 can be equipped with an adjustment mechanism, which can be bolted to achieve fine adjustment of the distance between it and the saw blade to adapt to the process requirements of different root-cutting depths.

[0046] When the root-cutting mechanism is in operation, the eighth drive unit 422 drives the second saw blade 423 to rotate at high speed. When the cabbage rotates with the base 12 to the root-cutting position, the root of the cabbage rests against the bottom surface of the second limiting member 421, and the rotating saw blade cuts the root that extends beyond the limiting member. The second limiting member 421 not only serves a positioning function, but more importantly, it precisely sets the root-cutting depth by controlling the height difference between the saw blade and the limiting member. This structure ensures that the root-cutting depth of each cabbage is consistent, avoiding the problem of root cutting being too deep or too shallow due to manual operation or inaccurate positioning in traditional root-cutting operations, thus ensuring both product aesthetics and reducing raw material waste.

[0047] In some embodiments, the rinsing assembly 51 includes a rinsing pipe, a first nozzle, and a second nozzle. The rinsing pipe is mounted on a first profile support 111 and has a first spray section and a second spray section. The first spray section is arranged horizontally, and the second spray section is arranged vertically. The first nozzle is mounted on the first spray section, and the second nozzle is mounted on the second spray section. The blowing assembly 52 includes an eighth profile support 521 and a fan 522. The eighth profile support 521 is mounted on the first profile support 111, and the fan 522 is mounted on the eighth profile support 521. The air outlet of the fan 522 is directed toward the conveyor chain plate 113.

[0048] In this embodiment, the cleaning component 5 employs a cleaning solution combining multi-angle spraying and strong air drying. The rinsing pipeline is arranged along the first profile support 111. The first spray section extends horizontally to the side of the cabbage's path, and the second spray section is vertically arranged above the path, forming a three-dimensional rinsing network. The first nozzle is installed on the horizontal spray section, spraying towards the side of the cabbage; the second nozzle is installed on the vertical spray section, spraying towards the top of the cabbage. Preferably, the nozzles are fan-shaped nozzles, allowing the spray angle to cover a larger surface area of ​​the cabbage. The rinsing pipeline can be equipped with a pressure regulating valve to adjust the water pressure according to cleaning needs. In the blowing assembly 52, the eighth profile support 521 spans above the conveying path. The fan 522 adopts a centrifugal structure, and the height and angle of the air outlet are adjusted via the support to ensure it faces the passing cabbage. Furthermore, the fan 522 can be equipped with a speed control function to adjust the airflow according to the ambient humidity and the water content of the cabbage.

[0049] When the cleaning component 5 is in operation, the rotating cabbage first enters the rinsing station. The horizontally arranged first nozzle and the vertically arranged second nozzle work simultaneously, forming a cross-shaped water curtain to thoroughly rinse the cabbage surface, effectively removing residual impurities and cutting debris. The cabbage then enters the drying station, where the powerful airflow generated by the blower 522 sweeps across the cabbage surface, quickly removing residual moisture. This continuous rinsing and drying process, combined with the cabbage's continuous rotation, ensures thorough cleaning without any blind spots. It achieves a complete cleaning effect while timely drying prevents quality degradation caused by moisture retention, creating favorable conditions for subsequent packaging or processing.

[0050] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model differs from the prior art and has the following beneficial effects: Through the continuous rotation of the base 12 during the conveying process, the cabbage can achieve uniform exposure from all directions when it reaches each processing station. In the leaf-cutting process, the rotating cabbage, in conjunction with the radially adjustable first cutting group 32, ensures precise removal of the outer yellow leaves without damaging the inner leaves; in the root-cutting process, the cabbage root, as it rotates, contacts the height-adjustable second cutting group 42, achieving a smooth and consistent root removal; in the cleaning process, the rotating cabbage undergoes multi-angle rinsing and strong air drying in sequence, achieving a thorough cleaning effect without any dead angles. This integrated processing method based on the rotating base 12 integrates the traditional processes of removing yellow leaves, cutting roots, and cleaning, which require multiple machines to complete in stages, into a continuous automated process. This not only significantly improves operational efficiency but also ensures consistent processing quality through the coordinated cooperation of each process. It effectively solves the technical problems of inaccurate positioning, uneven processing, and poor process connection in traditional operations, providing a highly efficient and reliable automated solution for cabbage pre-processing.

Any equivalent device or equivalent process transformation made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, are similarly included in the patent protection scope of this utility model.
