[0002] In the catering industry, vegetable washing is a crucial step in ensuring food safety and hygiene. Traditional manual vegetable washing methods are not only inefficient but also labor-intensive, especially during busy periods, making it difficult to meet the demand for rapid washing of large quantities of vegetables. With the increasing scale and intensification of the catering industry, the need for automated vegetable washing equipment is becoming increasingly urgent.

[0003] Chinese patent application CN202222123727.1 discloses an automatic vegetable washing machine for the catering industry. Addressing the current problem that restaurants typically wash vegetables and fruits manually, which significantly increases the workload and is insufficient for thorough cleaning, the proposed solution includes a soaking tank with an inclined filter plate inside. A washing tank is located on one side of the soaking tank, and a first water spray pipe is installed inside the washing tank. A second water spray pipe is evenly distributed on one side of the first water spray pipe, and a washing belt is installed inside the washing tank. This automatic vegetable washing machine facilitates soaking and initial rinsing of vegetables and fruits in its soaking tank, while the washing tank, in conjunction with the first and second water spray pipes, performs thorough rinsing, and the washing belt facilitates scrubbing.

[0004] However, existing vegetable washing machines still have some drawbacks. After washing, a lot of water remains on the surface of the vegetables. If they are not effectively drained, it will not only affect subsequent cooking operations, but may also lead to a damp kitchen environment and the growth of bacteria. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic vegetable washing machine for catering. Its purpose is to solve the problem that after washing, a lot of water will remain on the surface of vegetables. If the water is not effectively drained, it will not only affect the subsequent cooking operation, but may also lead to a damp kitchen environment and the growth of bacteria.

[0006] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an automatic vegetable washing machine for catering, comprising:

[0017] Furthermore, a second filter screen is inserted at the bottom of the placement frame.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] This utility model discloses an automatic vegetable washing machine for catering. After washing, the drive component can accurately lift the placement frame containing vegetables from the washing tank and move it smoothly to the top of the draining tank. Then, the placement frame is lowered to place the vegetables in a suitable draining position, providing a reliable guarantee for subsequent effective draining operations and ensuring that the entire draining process can proceed smoothly.

[0020] This utility model discloses an automatic vegetable washing machine for catering. When vegetables are placed above the draining trough for draining, the second filter screen is pulled to allow the vegetables to fall into the draining trough. The fan is then activated, drawing air into the air chamber and delivering it to the air outlet through the exhaust pipe. The air outlet blows air evenly onto the vegetables in the draining trough, creating a powerful airflow that quickly accelerates the evaporation and dripping of moisture from the vegetable surface. This significantly shortens the draining time and effectively removes a large amount of residual moisture from the vegetable surface, preventing problems such as oil splattering during stir-frying or affecting the consistency of the dish during stewing due to excess moisture.
