VEGETABLE WASHING MACHINE
The Vegetable washing machine mimics manual cleaning by using mesh belts for transmission. The high-pressure air pump produces gas, which causes the veggies in the cleaning machine to whirl violently. The contaminants on the surface of the vegetables are successfully separated by the operation of high-pressure water flow and powerful bubbles.
Simultaneously, because the material is spun in the steam-water combination, it successfully avoids material damage caused by bumps, knocks, and scratches during the cleaning process. Because of their huge surface area and low weight, leafy greens are a tough material to wash in a vegetable washing machine.
Most leafy vegetables have more surface folds, making it more difficult to remove the dust, silt, bacteria, and other pollutants that hide in these folds. Although there are several vegetable washing machines on the market, the majority of them are ineffective for cleaning leafy vegetables.
Many businesses must perform hand cleaning to obtain sufficient cleanliness of green vegetable cleaning. The traditional method of cleaning. To assist consumers in resolving this issue. It has produced a special for vegetables after numerous investigations and research based on vegetable washing machines.
Vegetables are washed in a vegetable washing machine. Washing vegetables is an important step in the processing process that results in appealing, chemical-free veggies. After harvesting, vegetables such as potatoes, tomatoes, cabbage, carrots, radishes, and others must be cleansed of dust particles before being moved to another location.
Generally, more Indian farmers use a traditional way of cleaning carrots and radish roots, which involves washing them in water with their hands and feet. It is necessary to build a rotating type of vegetable cleaner that may be used by every farmer in India.
Washing root vegetables before selling them in the market is an important step that minimises surface microbial load while also eliminating field soil, dust, and even residual pesticides, increasing the value of the product. Normally, Indian farmers use a traditional way of cleaning vegetables, such as washing them by hand or with their feet, which appears to take a long time and requires a large number of labourers.
Due to a lack of time, many farmers transport their veggies immediately to the market for sale and do not thoroughly sterilise them. As a result, a huge number of undesirable particles might adhere to the surface of the vegetables, posing a health risk when ingested.
As a result, a Vegetable washing machine is required to effectively clean the veggies. India is the world's second-largest producer of vegetables. During the 2015-16 fiscal year, India produced 169064 thousand metric tonnes of vegetables over an area of 10106 thousand hectares.
The most effective strategy to ensure food safety and avoid foodborne disease is to prevent contamination. As a result, every effort should be taken to keep food safe against key causes of contamination. In fields, vegetables are cleaned using a hosepipe-fed water jet and immersion soaking.
The usage of the vegetable washing machine is used to wash carrots, ginger, colocasia, and turmeric, reducing labour requirements and saving time. Washing vegetables lowers the microbial burden by a factor of 100 to 1000. When a vegetable is chopped, pathogens are prevented from being transported from the rind or peel to the interior of the fruit or vegetable. Fresh vegetables must be washed to avoid rotting and mould growth during storage.
PRINCIPLE OF VEGETABLE WASHING MACHINE
A Vegetable washing machine was designed and manufactured with the techno-economic status of the equipment's target users in mind: micro, small, and medium-scale vegetable growers. High washing capacity and efficiency were key factors, as was the goal to use stainless steel building components to assure the quality of the washed product.
A sturdy primary frame was also considered as a support to assure the machine's structural integrity. By adding protections around the moving parts and components, the machine was built for ergonomic value, safety, and simplicity of operation and maintenance. The machine was also designed with rollers to make it easier to move around. While moving through the conveyor belt at a predetermined speed, the sprinklers spray water on the vegetables.
This is to guarantee that the veggies have been cleaned completely to the appropriate quality. Sprinklers spray water at high pressure across and along the conveyor belt over the fruits to be cleaned, assisting the vegetable washing machine. In operation, the veggies remain stationary on the belt conveyor's surface, with no relative motion between the product and the conveyor belt.
In this manner, there will be little or no harm to the veggies until they reach the drier sheet when the cleaned fruits are released into a collector. The trash and undesirable particles are removed using a drain net that has been dissolved in the washing water. To save water, the water released into the water chamber after washing is recycled by pumping and filtering it back into the washing chamber.
In Vegetable washing machines, the spray cleaning function is introduced to the material transfer process, allowing the material to be sprayed after the soda cleaning is done. The purpose of this method is to replace the unclean water on the material's surface and increase the material's cleaning effect.
Simultaneously, after the secondary cleaning of the external spray water, which will automatically flow into the water tank to replace the cleaning tank in the supplementary tank, maintaining the cleanliness of the water quality in the tank, improving the cleaning utilization rate, and increasing the cleaning effect.
A specific gadget was also added to the leaf vegetable bubble washer, which allows the leaf vegetable to have greater contact with water and air. and the pushing mechanism is capable of propelling the light-leaf vegetable ahead at a consistent speed.
Water is pumped by the circulating water pump to allow contaminants to enter the water circulation tank during the treatment of precipitated impurities. The water tank's filtration device can be dismantled at any time. The contaminants that have been filtered are left in the water tank. To keep the pool clean, floating items are discharged through the upper overflow port. The ability to remove contaminants in a timely fashion.
ADVANTAGES OF VEGETABLE WASHING MACHINE
The Vegetable washing machine's support frame and conveyor belt are made of 304 stainless steel, which is stable in operation, simple to maintain and maintain, and has a long service life. The running speed of the entire vegetable washing machine is adjustable, and the conveying speed is set according to production needs, resulting in a high degree of automation, labour savings, and improved production efficiency. It can be cleaned in all directions and at varied angles thanks to the dual action of air bubbles and spray; the conveyor belt motor can achieve variable speed adjustment.
The cleaned veggies are automatically released after travelling through the network chain. The conveyor belt conveyor degree is modified according to production demands, and the operating efficiency is great. The final result has a positive impact: water flow transportation, air bubble floating washing, material protection, replicating the fundamental action of manual cleaning, and efficiently avoiding bumps and scratches during the manual cleaning process; Water-saving and ecologically friendly, the water circulation filtering system may save up to 80% of cleaning water.
Large sewage valve, efficient discharge, and easy cleaning and maintenance of equipment Quick-connect devices are used to connect all pipes, making disassembly and cleaning a breeze. There is a small space between the conveying components and the sink, which makes it easier to clean the sink afterwards. The development of a stainless steel, portable, electric power-powered vegetable washing machine.
The washer's inner rotational drum is 1.5 mm thick stainless steel with a 760 mm length and 620 mm diameter. A hollow shaft connects the drum to two bearings, and a stainless steel water pipe is installed inside the shaft. For comprehensive washing, a water injection pump sprays pressurized water through the centre, perforated inner shaft. The machine is equipped with a timer and an electrical gadget that allows the drum's rotational speed to be accurately controlled up to 60 rpm. There are adequate systems for supplying water to the machine and removing filthy water and silt. Guards are used to protect rotating components and moving belts.
