Solution Overview
Problem
Existing game washing methods are time-consuming and inefficient, requiring significant effort and often result in excessive water usage, making them undesirable for hunters and others processing game.
Innovation Solution
A game washer system comprising an agitator with conduits and outlets, a porous cradle, and adjustable mounts, which allows for efficient water flow and agitation of game, reducing washing time and water usage by securing the agitator to various receptacles and utilizing a valve to control water flow.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional manual washing methods are used, then thorough cleaning can be achieved, but washing time and labor effort increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs an agitator that creates mechanical vibration and turbulence in the water, enhancing the washing process. The agitator generates chaotic water flow patterns that effectively remove contaminants from game more quickly than static water, directly addressing the contradiction between thorough cleaning and washing time.
Solution Approach 2:
The system utilizes hydraulic principles by creating controlled water flow through the agitator and conduits. The water flow system delivers clean water to the game and removes waste materials efficiently, significantly reducing washing time while maintaining cleaning effectiveness compared to traditional manual methods.
2Productivity
If traditional washing methods are used, then game can be cleaned, but water consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and removes waste materials from the washing water through the agitator's filtration and separation mechanism. By actively removing contaminants, the system allows for more efficient water usage and reduces the total volume of water needed compared to traditional methods where water becomes quickly contaminated.
Solution Approach 2:
The agitator maintains continuous useful action by constantly circulating and agitating the water, ensuring that cleaning action is持续 throughout the process. This continuous effective water utilization reduces overall water consumption compared to batch washing methods.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed washing system is used, then washing process is simple, but adaptability to different receptacles and game sizes is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates adjustable and adaptable components that can be configured for different receptacle sizes and game types. The agitator and conduit system can be dynamically adjusted to suit various washing requirements, enhancing versatility without requiring complete system replacement.
Solution Approach 2:
The washing system is designed with universal components that can handle multiple types of game and receptacles. The agitator mechanism and water flow system are configured to be adaptable across different applications, providing multi-functionality that increases system versatility.

AI summary
An improved game washer is compatible with a variety of receptacles and includes one or more cradles for receiving and holding various types of game. Agitation for washing game is provided via one or more water flows at one or more outlets of an agitator. An outlet engages a bottom of a cradle to provide water flow at the cradle. The agitator extends out of an opening of a receptacle at a central portion thereof to receive a water supply, while forming a gap at the opening to permit a flow of water and waste material out of the receptacle.
