Abstract
A cleaning apparatus includes a connection part rotatably mounted to a rotatable member. The connection part is in the form of a disc 36 of plastics material, with a central cavity with four radial passages extending therefrom leading to nozzles for steam to pass therethrough for cleaning purposes. In use the disc is rotated at a required speed to, for instance, clean a conveyor.
Claims18
A cleaning apparatus, the cleaning apparatus comprising:
- a connection part permitting connection to a supply of cleaning fluid;
- and
- a rotatable member rotatably movable relative to the connection part, the rotatable member being in a form of a disc with an opening within the disc in connection with the connection part to receive cleaning fluid therefrom, with one or more outlets extending from the opening in the disc, to an exterior of the disc, to supply cleaning fluid to an area or item to be cleaned, wherein the rotatable member is made of a plastics material, and wherein the rotatable member is driven by a gear provided on the rotatable member and the gear is drivable by a motor.
A cleaning equipment for conveyors, comprising:
- a frame locatable extending across a conveyor;
- and
- a cleaning apparatus, the cleaning apparatus comprising:
- a connection part permitting connection to a supply of cleaning fluid;
- and
- a rotatable member rotatably movable relative to the connection part, the rotatable member being in a form of a disc with an opening within the disc in connection with the connection part to receive cleaning fluid therefrom, with one or more outlets extending from the opening in the disc, to an exterior of the disc, to supply cleaning fluid to an area of the conveyor to be cleaned,
- wherein the cleaning apparatus is adjustably mountable on the frame.
