According to the present invention, the main body 4 formed on the upper side of the inlet 2 for feeding the spoon 12, such as a spoon and chopsticks, is installed vertically inside the main body 4 to wash the inside of the main body 4. The first conveyor apparatus 18 which transfers the partition 10 which divides into the chamber 6 and the rinse chamber 8, and the cutlery 12 which was installed in the mutual washing chamber 6, and was injected into the inlet 2 is carried out. 20 and 22, a brush 16 installed above the first conveyor apparatus 18, 20 and 22 to wash the cutlery 12, and a detergent 16 installed on one side of the main body 4 ) And a detergent container 24 for supplying the brush 16 to the brush 16, and a cutlery disposed at the end of the first conveyor apparatus 18, 20, 22 and supplied by the first conveyor apparatus 18, 20, 22. A second conveying device (30) for transferring the 12 to the rinse chamber (8) and a cutlery (12) installed in the rinse chamber (8) and supplied to the transfer means (30); 32 and the circumference of the second conveyor apparatus 32 A water spray nozzle (40) installed at the end of the second conveyor device (32) for injecting high pressure water into the cutlery (12) to be transferred to the second conveyor device (32). There is provided a cutlery cleaner including a discharge guide 44 extending outwardly to collect the cutlery 12 supplied by the second conveyor device 32 and discharged to the outside of the main body 4.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 shows a cutlery washing machine according to the present invention, the interior space of the main body 4 to the washing chamber 6 and the rinse chamber 8 in the interior of the main body 4 in which the inlet 2 is formed on one side of the upper surface. The partition 10 partitioning is vertically installed. The inlet 2 is formed above the washing chamber 6 so that the spoon 12 such as a spoon, chopsticks, fork, knife, or the like can be introduced into the washing chamber 6. In the washing chamber 6, first conveyor devices 18, 20, 22 for transporting the cutlery 12 introduced into the inlet 2 are horizontally installed, and the first conveyor devices 18, 20, 22 are installed. ), A plurality of brushes 16 for washing the cutlery 12 transported by the first conveyor apparatuses 18, 20, and 22 are installed above.

The first conveyor apparatus 18, 20, 22 is configured by horizontally installed so that the three conveyors (18, 20, 22) driven by a drive motor not shown in the vertical position. At this time, the intermediate conveyor 20 is operated in the opposite direction to the upper and lower conveyors (18, 22), so as to continuously transport in connection with the cutlery (12) transferred by each conveyor (18, 20, 22) In the conveyor belt 19 of the conveyor 18, 20, 22, a plurality of protruding jaws 21 are formed.

The brush 16 has a cylindrical shape and is rotated at a high speed by a driving motor. The brush 16 is washed using the detergent 26 supplied from the detergent container 24 provided on the upper side of the main body 4. can do. The detergent container 24 is configured so that the detergent supply pipe 28 extends from one side to the upper side of the brush 16 to supply a predetermined amount of detergent 26 to the brush 16. At this time, it is preferable to further include a separate water supply pipe connected to the water pipe, to continuously supply a predetermined amount of water to the brush 16, so that the bubbles in the brush 16 well occur.

In addition, a lower end of the lower conveyor device 22 is provided with a transfer means 30 whose end extends through the partition wall 10 and extends into the rinse chamber 8. The conveying means 30 is configured by installing a channel-shaped guide downwardly inclined toward the hangum chamber 8 to collect the cutlery 12 falling from the ends of the first conveyor apparatus 18, 20, 22. It can be supplied to the rinse chamber 8.

In addition, a second conveyor device 32 is installed in the hangar chamber 8 to transfer the cutlery 12 supplied to the hangar chamber 8 by the transfer means 30. The second conveyor device 32 is formed with a rising portion 34 for raising the cutlery 12 supplied through the transfer means 30, and a horizontal portion 36 for horizontally moving the cutlery 12, On the outer circumferential surface of the conveyor belt 37 of the second conveyor apparatus 32, a plurality of support jaws 38 are formed to protrude, and are configured to support the cutlery 12 to move up and horizontally. In addition, a plurality of water spray nozzles 40 are provided around the second conveyor apparatus 32 for injecting water into the cutlery 12 conveyed by the second conveyor apparatus 32. The water spray nozzle 40 is connected to the water pipe through the connection pipe 42, by spraying high-pressure water can wash the detergent and food debris on the cutlery (12). A discharge guide 44 extending from the end of the second conveyor apparatus 32 to the outside through the main body 4 is provided. The discharge guide 44 is configured by installing a channel-shaped guide so that its end is downward, collecting the cutlery 12 falling from the end of the second conveyor device 32, and discharging it to the outside of the main body 4. can do.

Reference numeral 46 shows a locking protrusion provided on the inner wall of the washing chamber 6, and the cutlery 12 falling from the end of the conveyor hits the locking protrusion 46 so that the top and bottom are turned upside down.

Accordingly, the cutlery 12 introduced into the inlet 2 is transferred to the first conveyor apparatuses 18, 20, and 22, and washed with the brush 16 to be washed by the transfer means 30. 8) and then, while feeding the cutlery 12 to the second conveyor device 32, it is rinsed with the water spray nozzle 40, and discharged to the discharge guide 44, the body 4 It can be collected in a separate collecting container 48 installed on the outside.
