The present invention provides an apparatus for washing gingers, by which shape-distorted vegetables such as gingers and the like can be washed without being damaged, in order to seek reduction of the required operation time of washing. The apparatus for washing gingers according to this invention includes: a high pressure water jetting means for spraying high pressure water toward an object to be washed along the traveling direction of the object to be washed； an inner side washing roller brush 16 disposed along the longitudinal direction； an outer side washing roller brush 18 located relatively outside the inner side washing roller brush 16； and a brush 20 for preventing the object to be washed from jumping out, which is located relatively above the outer side washing roller brush 18, in which a plurality of bristles are obliquely implanted along the traveling direction of the object to be washed in the inner side washing roller brush 16 and the outer side washing roller brush 18 for use as the brush units, each brush unit being implanted concentrically and column-by-column in the outer peripheral portion of each brush, and adjacent brush units being parallel to each other.本發明提供一種薑類之洗滌裝置，可將薑等形狀扭曲的蔬菜進行洗滌而不會使其受傷，進而謀求洗滌所需作業工時的減少。本發明之薑類之洗滌裝置具備：高壓水噴射手段，沿著被洗滌物的行進方向將高壓的水朝被洗滌物噴射；內側洗滌用滾筒刷16，沿著長邊方向配設；外側洗滌用滾筒刷18，相對於內側洗滌用滾筒刷16位於其外側；以及被洗滌物跳出防止刷20，相對於外側洗滌用滾筒刷18位於其上方，其中，將複數根刷毛朝被洗滌物之前進方向傾斜植插設置於內側洗滌用滾筒刷16、外側洗滌用滾筒刷18作為毛刷部，各毛刷部以同心圓狀逐行植插設置於各刷子的外周部，且相鄰接之一行毛刷部彼此間平行排列。
