    1 shows a vegetable washing and cooling device 10 according to the present invention. This apparatus 10 is comprised of the cooling water tank 14 in which the dehydration container 12 was rotatably mounted inside, and consists of a pair of cold water tank units 16A and 16B arranged in parallel.
    The dewatering container 12 is cylindrical in the shape of an upper opening and is in the form of a mesh, and has a structure in which a side of the side containing the fruits and vegetables from the top and a bottom of the normal fruits and vegetables carrying box 18 (shown as one point-to-line) are arranged in a circle. . The dehydration tank 12 is supported in the cooling water tank 14 by the rotating shaft 20 extending from the bottom center to the lower side of the cooling water tank 14 and the rotating wheel 22 of the bottom side, and is located below the rotating shaft 20. The rotational force of the motor (not shown) is transmitted to the pulley 24 mounted on the belt 26 through the belt 26 so as to be rotated in the cold water tank 14.
    In the upper inner circumference of the cooling water tank 14, a washing water spray nozzle pipe 28 for spraying and supplying washing water to the fruits and vegetables in the dehydration container 12 is installed, and a cooling water supply pipe 30 is connected to the side wall, and the washing water is disposed on the bottom surface. The discharge pipe 32 and the cooling water discharge pipe 34 are respectively connected.
    The washing water spray nozzle tubes 28 installed in the cooling water tanks 14 of the respective cooling water tank units 16A and 16B are connected to the washing water supply means 38 through the solenoid valves 36A and 36B, respectively. The wash water drain pipe 32 of 14 is connected to the wash water discharge means 42 via the solenoid valves 40A and 40B, respectively. If necessary, the washing water discharged to the washing water discharge means 42 may be sent to the washing water supply means 38 after filtration.
    On the other hand, the cooling water supply pipe 30 connected to the cooling water tank 14 of each of the cooling water tank units 16A and 16B has a cooling water supply end of the chilling unit 46 for cooling the cooling water through the solenoid valves 44A and 44B, respectively. The cooling water discharge pipe 34 is connected to the cooling water discharge end 52 of the chilling unit 46 through the solenoid valves 50A and 50B, respectively.
    The cooling water tank 14 of each of the cooling water tank units 16A and 16B has an upper cover at the same height and a sealing cover 54 capable of hermetically sealing the upper portion of the cooling water tank 14 to each cooling water tank. (14) is installed so as to be movable to close alternately. In addition, a vacuum cooling means 58 is connected to each cooling water tank 14 via solenoid valves 56A and 56B, respectively. The vacuum cooling means 58 may apply vacuum back pressure to the closed cooling water tank 14 to vacuum-cool the inside of the cooling water tank 14 after discharging the cooling water.
    Such action of the fruit or vegetable washing and cooling device 10 according to the present invention is as follows.
    First, the process of the apparatus 10 shown in FIG. 1 is described that the washing process is performed in the cooling water tank unit 16A on the left side and the cooling process is performed in the cooling water tank unit 16B on the right side.
    On the left side, the cooling water tank unit 16A carries the fruits and vegetables containing the fruits and vegetables to be washed and cooled in the dehydration tank 12 in the cooling water tank 14 of the cooling water tank unit 16A without the sealing cover 54 being covered. The box 18 is received by the worker. Thereafter, the solenoid valve 36A is opened, and the washing water is supplied from the washing water supply means 38 to the washing water spray nozzle pipe 28. The washing water spray nozzle pipe 28 sprays and supplies the washing water to the fruits and vegetables. At this time, the solenoid valve 40A of the washing water discharge pipe 32, the solenoid valve 44A of the cooling water supply pipe 30, and the solenoid valve 50A of the cooling water discharge pipe 34 are closed to cool the water tank 14 of the cooling water tank unit 16A. The water level of the washing water gradually rises so that the fruits and vegetables are immersed in the washing water, and the dehydration container 12 rotates the left and right through the rotating shaft 20 to wash the fruits and vegetables.
    After the fruits and vegetables are washed in the washing water for a predetermined time, the solenoid valve 36A is closed to block the supply of the washing water, and the solenoid valve 40A is opened to discharge the washing water to the washing water discharge means through the washing water discharge pipe 32. When the discharge of the washing water is completed, the dehydration container 12 is rapidly rotated by the rotating shaft 20 to centrifuge the washing water on the fruits and vegetables.
    The fruits and vegetables in the cooling water tank after the dehydration of the washing water are cooled with cooling water in the next step. This cooling process will be described in the cooling water tank unit 16B on the right side of the figure.
    The cooling water tank 14 having the washing process is supplied to the cooling water tank 14 from the chilling unit 46 through the cooling water supply stage 48, the solenoid valve 44B, and the cooling water supply pipe 30. At this time, the solenoid valve 50B of the cooling water discharge pipe 34 is in a closed state.
    When the cooling water level in the cooling water tank 14 reaches a certain level and the fruits and vegetables are immersed in the cooling water, the supply of the cooling water is stopped and the dehydration container 12 is gradually rotated to the left and right so that the fruits and vegetables are quenched.
    After the cooling process by the cooling water is finished, the solenoid valve 50B is opened to discharge the cooling water to the cooling water discharge pipe 34 (actually, the cooling water is discharged to the chilling unit 48 and at the same time the cleaning process is completed and the other cooling water tank is prepared for the cooling process). 14, which will be explained later). When the discharge of the coolant is completed, the dehydration tank 12 is rapidly rotated to centrifuge the coolant. After that, the sealing cover 54 is closed to seal the cooling water tank 14, and the solenoid valve 56B is opened and the vacuum cooling is performed while the cooling water supply pipe 30, the cooling water discharge pipe 34, and the washing water discharge pipe 32 are closed. By applying a vacuum back pressure to the cooling water tank 14 through the means 58, the inside of the cooling water tank 14 is vacuumed to treat the fruits and vegetables so that the quenching effect is increased under vacuum.
    The process of the two cooling water tank units 16A and 16B is alternately repeated, and the cooling water is supplied to the cooling water tank 14, in which the cooling is completed, to the cooling water tank 14, where the washing is completed, in the cooling water tank 14 where the washing is completed. In the cooling water tank 14 where the cooling process is started and the cooling is completed, the cooled fruits and vegetables are drawn out and the fresh fruits to be washed are transported and received.
    As described above, the present invention can greatly reduce the operator's workload because the fruits and vegetables are washed and cooled in a state in which the fruits and vegetables are packed in the fruits and vegetables transport box, and the cooling and throughput are performed by alternately performing washing and cooling treatment processes using two cooling water tank units. There is an advantage to increase.
