[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments. Example 1:

[0020] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which discloses a stirring and cleaning device for vegetable processing, comprising: The pool body 1 has a drain pipe 2 connected to the inside of the pool body 1 on the outside, which is used to discharge sewage containing mud and impurities after the cleaning cycle is over. The stirring mechanism 3 includes a drive shaft 307 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the tank body 1 via a bearing. A material turning mesh plate 302 is fixedly connected to the outside of the drive shaft 307. The tank body 1 is provided with branch pipes 304 distributed at equal intervals. The outer side of the branch pipes 304 is provided with first water outlet holes 305 distributed at equal intervals in a straight line.

[0021] Specifically, the turning mesh plates 302 are arranged in a cross shape on the outside of the drive shaft 307. This layout ensures that the vegetables in the pool 1 can be turned and pushed evenly and continuously when rotating. One end of the drive shaft 307 passes through the pool 1 and extends to the outside of the pool 1. A motor base is fixedly connected to the outside of the pool 1. A drive motor 306 is installed on the top of the motor base. The output shaft of the drive motor 306 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive shaft 307 located outside the pool 1 through a coupling, thereby providing stable power for the entire stirring mechanism 3.

[0022] Specifically, one end of the branch pipe 304 penetrates the pool body 1 and extends outside the pool body 1. Several branch pipes 304 are fixedly connected to the same cleaning water inlet pipe 303 at one end outside the pool body 1 so as to connect to the pressurized cleaning water source.

[0023] Specifically, a guide plate 301 is fixedly connected to the outside of the pool body 1. The guide plate 301 is set in an inclined mesh shape. This design allows some loose dust and debris attached to the surface of the vegetables to be cleaned to be pre-screened through the mesh before entering the pool body 1, thus achieving pre-cleaning.

[0024] In this embodiment, the drive motor 306 is started, and the drive motor 306 drives the cross-shaped turning screen 302 to rotate continuously via the transmission shaft 307. During the rotation, the turning screen 302 agitates the vegetables in the pool 1, causing them to tumble and rub against each other in the water, completing the initial soaking and cleaning, and removing some of the attached substances. On the other hand, the specific shape and rotation direction of the turning screen 302 generate a continuous thrust towards the conveyor belt 404, causing the vegetables to gradually move towards the discharge end during the cleaning process. When the vegetables are turned over and pushed to the area above the branch pipe 304, the high-pressure water jet sprayed from the first water outlet 305 will perform a second concentrated rinse on the vegetables. This step can effectively wash away stubborn stains and small debris that remain after the initial cleaning. Through the synergistic effect of the mechanical agitation of the turning screen 302 and the spraying of the branch pipe 304, this embodiment significantly improves the uniformity and thoroughness of the cleaning. Example 2:

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that: The discharge mechanism 4 includes a conveyor belt 404 installed inside the pool body 1. The outer side of the conveyor belt 404 is fixedly connected with equally spaced baffles 406. A spray pipe 402 is provided above the conveyor belt 404. The bottom of the spray pipe 402 is provided with second water outlet holes 403 that are equally spaced in a straight line.

[0026] Specifically, a U-shaped frame 405 is fixedly connected to the outside of the pool body 1, and a spray pipe 402 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 405 to ensure the stability of the structure. A rinsing water inlet pipe 401 that communicates with the inside of the spray pipe 402 is fixedly connected to the top of the spray pipe 402 to introduce the final rinsing water.

[0027] Specifically, the power end of the conveyor belt 404 passes through the pool body 1 and extends outside the pool body 1. The same transmission component 5 is provided between the drive shaft 307 and the conveyor belt 404. This design allows the drive motor 306 to drive the conveyor belt 404 to rotate synchronously through this transmission component 5 while driving the turning screen plate 302 to rotate. This achieves dual-function drive under a single power source, simplifies the structure, and ensures the synchronicity of the actions.

[0028] Based on the cleaning process in Example 1, when the vegetables, after initial cleaning and secondary rinsing by the branch pipe 304, are pushed by the turning mesh plate 302 to the area of ​​the conveyor belt 404, the operating conveyor belt 404 effectively scoops up the vegetables from the water and carries them upward using the baffles 406 on its surface. During this lifting and discharge process, the spray pipe 402 located above the conveyor belt 404 sprays clean water downward through the second water outlet 403, forming a final rinsing barrier to thoroughly rinse the vegetables about to be discharged, ensuring that there is no cleaning residue.

[0029] The entire process from cleaning to discharging requires no manual intervention and is highly automated.

[0030] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.

[0031] The workflow of this utility model is as follows: An appropriate amount of clean water is added into the pool 1. The vegetables that need to be washed are conveyed to the guide plate 301. Some of the dust and debris on the vegetables will fall through the guide plate 301 when the vegetables come into contact with it. The vegetables carry some of the dust and debris into the pool 1. The clean water in the pool 1 causes some of the dust and debris on the vegetables to fall off. Start the drive motor 306. The drive motor 306 drives the transmission shaft 307 to rotate through the output shaft. The rotation of the transmission shaft 307 drives the turning screen 302 to rotate. The rotation of the turning screen 302 stirs the vegetables in the pool 1 and moves the vegetables towards the conveyor belt 404 while stirring. When the vegetables are pushed by the turning mesh plate 302 to move above the branch pipe 304, the water sprayed from the first water outlet 305 further cleans the vegetables and pushes them to float upwards. When the drive shaft 307 rotates, it drives the conveyor belt 404 to work through the transmission assembly 5. When the conveyor belt 404 is working, the vegetables in the pool 1 are lifted by the conveyor belt 404 under the action of the baffle 406. Clean water enters the spray pipe 402 through the rinsing water inlet pipe 401 and is then sprayed onto the conveyor belt 404 through the spray pipe 402 to clean the vegetables on the conveyor belt 404 again. After being cleaned, the vegetables are transported to the next process by the conveyor belt 404 to complete the cleaning of the vegetables.

[0032] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
