PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide washing equipment for root crops, in which two roll brushes forming a movement path for the root crops are arranged in parallel, and in which a high-pressure injection water is injected from above the movement path of the root crops, so that the skin peels of the root crops are reduced.SOLUTION: High-pressure injection water 44 is injected from an injection nozzle 43 to a radish 51 moving in an X3 direction on a roll brush B1 (B2). The pressure of the high-pressure injection water 44 on the outer peripheral surface of the radish 51 is so set as to become gradually lower from the end part Bin to the end part Bout of the roll brush B1.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】根菜類の移動通路を形成する2個のロールブラシを平行に配置し、該根菜類の移動通路の上方から高圧噴射水を噴射する根菜類の洗浄装置において、根菜類の皮剥けを低減すること。【解決手段】ロールブラシB1(B2)上をX3方向へ移動する大根51に、噴射ノズル43から高圧噴射水44が噴射される。大根51の外周面における該高圧噴射水44の圧力は、ロールブラシB1の端部Bin側からBout側へ段階的に低くなるように設定してある。【選択図】図2
