Embodiment Construction

[0029] The invention will now be described in great detail with reference to the accompanying drawings which illustrate non-limiting embodiments of the invention.

[0030] As used herein, the terms "cashew nut" and "cashew" are used interchangeably, and both terms refer to a cashew nut with a shell (raw cashew - RCN).

[0031] As used herein, the term "cashew compartment" refers to a holding mechanism that securely holds individual cashew nuts in proper position and orientation within an individual cashew compartment (cashew cup).

[0032] As used herein, references to a "main conveyor" in the system should always be understood as a "main conveyor" on which is mounted an array of cashew nut bays, wherein individual cashew nuts are placed in each cashew nut bay, and for For purposes of the present invention, whenever the movement of a "main conveyor" is referred to from one part of the system to another, the movement of the "main conveyor" is by default to be understood as the ...

Abstract

The present invention discloses an improved system with customized steam cooking, popping, tearing and shell separator mechanisms for de-shelling cashew nut and an improved process with customized steam cooking, popping, tearing and shell separator mechanisms for de-shelling cashew nut. The improved system comprises of: a main frame, a hopper, a feeding unit, a singulator unit, a main conveyor (horizontal or rotary), an optics unit, a customized steaming system, a customized popping system, a customized tearing system, a shell separator unit, and multiple collection units. The disclosed improved system provides accurate amount of pressurized steam to individual cashew nut according to their steam requirement, thereby enabling such customized steamed cashew nuts for accurate popping and accurate tearing each cashew nuts, thereby ultimately avoiding high cashew kernel breakage and providing high percentage of substantially whole kernel as a final product, moreover this kind of customizedsteaming adapted for steaming cashew nuts provide good quality of kernels which has high market value.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to cashew nut shelling machines or systems and methods for shelling nuts, and more particularly, the present invention relates to cashew nut shelling machines with custom steam cooking, popping, tearing and shell separation mechanisms for shelling cashew nuts Improved systems, and the invention also relates to improved methods with customized steam cooking, popping, tearing and shell separation mechanisms for shelling cashew nuts. Background technique [0002] The most critical and important step is that the quality of the cashew depends on its shelling, as the whole kernel is considered the commercially valuable part of the cashew. Accordingly, many inventions have been developed to provide the whole kernel from the cashew nut shell. A few patents such as GB 727798 and US2806501 perform shelling operations by maintaining the steam treatment pressure or temperature. Although the steam treatment pressure or tempe...
