Thus, the quality and reliability of the washing machine are greatly improved, so that the user can meet the various needs of the user, It is.

As it is known, the surface of various vegetables including fruit is attached with harmful foreign substances such as pesticides and parasitic eggs supplied at the time of cultivation, so it is absolutely necessary to clean them for hygiene immediately before consumption.

Conventionally, vegetables and fruits are cleaned by hand using water contained in a container or by washing away foreign substances in running water.

However, the above conventional method of washing vegetables and fruits has a problem in that the washing power can not reach the fine parts, that is, the fine parts of the stem, the fruit and the surface of the fruit.

In addition, since it takes a lot of time and effort to clean a large amount of vegetables one by one, there was a problem that the operator felt inconvenience.
