Food material's water cleansing apparatus

The present invention relates to a food material washing device, and more particularly, when food materials such as meat, vegetables, and fruits having a specific gravity that can sink in water are put in, the food material is automatically transported in water and transported while the high-pressure water stream and air bubbles ( Air bubble) and high-temperature steam are used to cleanly wash and discharge foreign substances. In particular, in the case of meat, a food cleaning device invented to remove and discharge the blood along with foreign substances. is to provide

Food materials such as meat, vegetables, and fruits are cleaned before cooking to remove various contaminants and residual pesticides. work should be done concurrently.

Conventionally, most of the cleaning operations of food materials such as meat, vegetables, and fruits depended on manual work, and food processing factories that consume a large amount of food materials or some large restaurants use an automatic washing device to wash the food materials.
