[0045] The present application aims to solve the technical problems that the current methods for peeling water chestnuts mainly include manual peeling, semi-mechanized cutting peeling, friction peeling and the like, which are inefficient, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0046] The present application provides a water chestnut peeling machine, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the water chestnut peeling machine includes a frame 10 and a peeling mechanism 20 arranged on the frame 10.

[0047] The frame 10 is used to provide a supporting structure for the peeling mechanism 20, and the frame 10 can be assembled and fixed by multiple steel bars; the peeling mechanism 20 is used to peel the water chestnuts, and one or more peeling mechanisms 20 can be provided.

[0048] Specifically, the peeling mechanism 20 includes a feeding component 21, a limiting component 22, a peeling component 23 and a transmission component 24.

[0049] Specifically, the feed assembly 21 includes a feed hopper 211 fixed to the frame 10, and the feed hopper 211 has a feed port 211a and a discharge port 211b. The feed hopper 211 is used to receive water chestnuts. After a large amount of water chestnuts are poured into the feed hopper 211 from the feed port 211a of the feed hopper 211, the water chestnuts are discharged from the discharge port 211b of the feed hopper 211.

[0050] It should be noted that the aperture of the discharge port 211b can be selected according to the actual size of the water chestnuts to be processed. The aperture of the discharge port 211b is larger than the maximum average transverse diameter of the water chestnuts, but the aperture of the discharge port 211b is smaller than twice the maximum average transverse diameter of the water chestnuts, so that the water chestnuts can be discharged from the discharge port 211b in sequence.

[0051] In one embodiment, a brush is provided at the discharge port 211b of the feed hopper 211, and the brush can straighten the crooked water chestnuts when the water chestnuts fall out of the discharge port 211b, and can also clean the dirt adhering to the water chestnuts.

[0052] Specifically, the limiting assembly 22 includes a limiting plate 221 located below the discharge port 211b and horizontally arranged, and a plurality of receiving grooves 221a for accommodating water chestnuts are arranged on the limiting plate 221, and the plurality of receiving grooves 221a are arranged along the axial direction of the limiting plate 221. The limiting plate 221 is equipped with a first driving assembly 30 for driving it to rotate around a first direction, and the first direction is parallel to the vertical direction.

[0053] It should be noted that the first driving assembly 30 drives the limiting plate 221 to rotate, so that the water chestnuts in the feed hopper 211 are discharged from the discharge port 211b in sequence and fall into the receiving groove 221a. One receiving groove 221a can be used to accommodate one water chestnut, and the receiving groove 221a is used to limit the left and right movement of the water chestnut. The aperture of the receiving groove 221a can be the same as the aperture of the discharge port 211b.

[0054] Specifically, the peeling component 23 includes a cutting peeling component and a friction peeling component. The cutting peeling component is used to cut the water chestnut to cut off the bud and root of the water chestnut; the friction peeling component is located below the limiting plate 221, and the friction peeling component is used to friction peel the water chestnut to rub off the side skin around the water chestnut.

[0055] Specifically, the transmission component 24 includes a transmitter 241 disposed below the friction belt 234, and the transmitter 241 includes a transmission belt 241a, and the transmission belt 241a is used to receive the water chestnuts dropped from the receiving groove 221a and transmit the water chestnuts to a designated position. The transmitter 241 can be a belt conveyor.

[0056] It should be noted that when peeling the water chestnuts, a large amount of water chestnuts are poured into the feed hopper 211. When the first drive component 30 drives the limiting disk 221 to rotate, the water chestnuts fall into the respective receiving grooves 221a on the limiting disk 221 through the discharge port 211b in sequence. At the same time, the cutting and peeling component cuts off the buds and roots of the water chestnuts in the receiving grooves 221a. The water chestnuts with the buds and roots cut off fall onto the conveyor belt 241a. The conveyor belt 241a drives the water chestnuts to move. During the movement, the water chestnuts are frictionally peeled by the friction peeling component to rub off the side skin around the water chestnuts, thereby completing the peeling of the water chestnuts. At the same time, the peeled water chestnuts are transported to the designated position through the conveyor belt 241a.

[0057] It can be understood that peeling water chestnuts with a water chestnut peeling machine makes the mechanization of water chestnut peeling a reality, meeting the requirements of high efficiency and low loss of water chestnut peeling, with less human participation, high work efficiency, and time and labor saving.

[0058] like Figure 3As shown, specifically, the cutting and peeling assembly includes a first peeling knife 232 located above the limiting plate 221 and a second peeling knife 233 located below the limiting plate 221 .

[0059] It can be understood that, during the rotation of the limiting plate 221, the first peeling knife 232 and the second peeling knife 233 are used to cut and remove the buds and roots of the water chestnuts.

[0060] In one embodiment, the first peeling knife 232 and the second peeling knife 233 can be arranged relatively to each other to cut the bud and root of the water chestnut at the same time, so as to avoid the water chestnut being tilted and affecting the cutting effect when the bud and root of the water chestnut are cut separately.

[0061] Specifically, the cutting and peeling assembly also includes a horizontally arranged rotating disk 231, the first peeling knife 232 and the second peeling knife 233 are fixedly arranged on the rotating disk 231, and the rotating disk 231 is equipped with a second driving assembly 40 for driving it to rotate around a first direction.

[0062] It should be noted that the rotation speed of the rotating disk 231 can be much greater than the rotation speed of the limiting disk 221 to improve the cutting effect and prevent the water chestnuts in the receiving groove 221a from being thrown out due to the excessive rotation speed of the limiting disk 221.

[0063] In one embodiment, at least two of the first peeling knives 232 and the second peeling knives 233 are provided, and a plurality of the first peeling knives 232 are distributed along the axial direction of the rotating disk 231 , and a plurality of the second peeling knives 233 are distributed along the axial direction of the rotating disk 231 .

[0064] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, specifically, the friction peeling assembly includes two friction belts 234 arranged opposite to each other, and a transmission channel for accommodating water chestnuts is arranged between the two friction belts 234; the transmission belt 241a is arranged along the length direction of the transmission channel to be used for transmitting the water chestnuts along the length direction of the transmission channel.

[0065] It should be noted that the friction belt 234 is used to rub and peel the water chestnuts. When the water chestnuts fall onto the conveyor belt 241a, the water chestnuts are located in the conveyor channel and the water chestnuts are in contact with the belt surface of the friction belt 234.

[0066] In one embodiment, the friction peeling assembly also includes a roller assembly corresponding to the friction belt 234 one by one, and the roller assembly includes a first roller 235 and a second roller 236 arranged side by side, and the axes of the first roller 235 and the second roller 236 are parallel to the first direction. The friction belt 234 is sleeved on the first roller 235 and the second roller 236, and the first roller 235 is equipped with a third driving assembly 50 for driving it to rotate around the first direction.

[0067] It should be noted that the first roller 235 is driven to rotate by the third driving component 50, and the second roller 236 is driven to rotate by the transmission action of the friction belt 234. The friction belt 234 reciprocates around the first roller 235 and the second roller 236, thereby increasing the friction on the water chestnuts to achieve a better peeling effect.

[0068] In one embodiment, when the water chestnuts are frictionally peeled, the two friction belts 234 move at different speeds, so that the water chestnuts rotate during the friction peeling process to achieve a sufficient peeling effect.

[0069] In one embodiment, a protrusion (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer side of the friction belt 234 to increase the friction on the water chestnut.

[0070] It should be noted that the outer sides of the friction belts 234 refer to the two opposite sides of the two friction belts 234 .

[0071] In one embodiment, the distance between the friction belt 234 and the transmission belt 241 a is 3 mm.

[0072] In one embodiment, a pressure plate is disposed above the friction belt 234 to prevent the water chestnuts from flying out of the transmission channel during the friction peeling process.

[0073] Specifically, the water chestnut peeling machine also includes an adjustment component, which includes a supporting plate 251 arranged below the rotating disk 231 for supporting the water chestnuts, and the second peeling knife 233 is located between the supporting plate 251 and the limiting disk 221 when the second peeling knife 233 cuts the water chestnuts; the supporting plate 251 is provided with a drop port 251a located above the conveyor belt 241a.

[0074] It should be noted that the supporting plate 251 is used to support the water chestnuts in the accommodating groove 221a. When the limiting plate 221 rotates to the accommodating groove 221a corresponding to the drop port 251a, the water chestnuts fall from the drop port 251a onto the conveyor belt 241a; the diameter of the drop port 251a is larger than the maximum average transverse diameter of the water chestnuts, and the diameter of the drop port 251a can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0075] In one embodiment, a vibration motor (not shown in the figure) is disposed on the supporting plate 251 .

[0076] It should be noted that the supporting plate 251 is vibrated by the vibration motor, so that the placement state of the water chestnuts is adjusted by the vibration, and the water chestnuts are smoothly slid to the drop port 251a.

[0077] Specifically, the water chestnut peeling machine also includes a guide assembly arranged between the supporting plate 251 and the conveyor belt 241a, and the guide assembly includes two guide plates 26 arranged opposite to each other, and one end of the guide plate 26 extends into the conveying channel.

[0078] It should be noted that the gap between the guide plate 26 and the conveyor belt 241a is much smaller than the height of the water chestnut. The other end of the guide plate 26 is located on one end of the conveyor 241 close to the drop port 251a. A guide channel is formed between the two guide plates 26 to utilize the guide plate 26 to prevent the water chestnuts that fall onto the conveyor 241 from falling off the conveyor belt 241a.

[0079] In one embodiment, the water chestnut peeling machine further includes a cleaning component, and the cleaning component further includes a cleaning nozzle 27 disposed on the frame 10, and the water outlet of the cleaning nozzle 27 faces the limiting plate 221, so that the water chestnuts can be cleaned by the cleaning nozzle 27 to remove water chestnut fragments.

[0080] In one embodiment, the peeling mechanism 20 is provided in plurality. Figures 1 to 6 Taking the case where two peeling mechanisms 20 are provided as an example, the two peeling mechanisms 20 are arranged side by side and share a frame 10 .

[0081] See also Figures 4 to 6 The peeling mechanism 20 includes a limiting plate 221, and the limiting plate 221 is equipped with a linkage shaft 35. The linkage shaft 35 is connected to the frame 10 around its axial rotation, and the limiting plate 221 is sleeved and fixed on the linkage shaft 35.

[0082] Among them, a transmission tooth 34 is fixedly arranged on the circumferential side of the limiting plate 221, the first driving assembly 30 includes a first motor 31 and a first driving shaft 32 which is transmission-connected to the first motor 31, a driving gear 33 is sleeved and fixed on the first driving shaft 32, the driving gear 33 is located between the two limiting plates 221 of the two peeling mechanisms 20, and the driving gear 33 is meshed with the transmission teeth 34 of the two limiting plates 221.

[0083] It should be noted that when the first motor 31 drives the driving gear 33 to rotate, the two limit plates 221 are driven to rotate simultaneously. The driving force is provided to the two limit plates 221 by one first motor 31 to reduce the production cost.

[0084] Specifically, the second driving assembly 40 includes a second motor 41 and a second driving shaft that is transmission-connected to the second motor 41, and a first pulley 42 is sleeved and fixed on the second driving shaft; a peeling mechanism 20 includes a rotating disk 231, and each rotating disk 231 is equipped with a first transmission shaft 43 arranged along a first direction, and the first transmission shaft 43 is connected to the frame 10 around its axial rotation, and the rotating disk 231 is sleeved and fixed on the first transmission shaft 43, and a second pulley 44 is also sleeved and fixed on the first transmission shaft 43, and the first pulley 42 and the second pulley 44 are linked by belt drive, that is, the first pulley 42 and the second pulley 44 are linked by a conveyor belt sleeved on the first pulley 42 and the second pulley 44.

[0085] In one embodiment, the second pulley 44 of one peeling mechanism 20 is linked to the first pulley 42 via a belt drive, and the two second pulleys 44 of two peeling mechanisms 20 are linked to each other via a belt drive.

[0086] It should be noted that the second motor 41 drives the first pulley 42 to rotate, and realizes the linkage between the first pulley 42 and the second pulley 44 through belt transmission, thereby driving the two second pulleys 44 of the two peeling mechanisms 20 to rotate at the same time, thereby driving the two rotating disks 231 of the two peeling mechanisms 20 to rotate.

[0087] Specifically, the first roller 235 is equipped with a first support shaft 53 arranged along the first direction, the first support shaft 53 is connected to the frame 10 around its axial rotation, and the first roller 235 is sleeved and fixed on the first support shaft 53; the second roller 236 is equipped with a second support shaft 54 ​​arranged along the first direction, the second support shaft 54 ​​is connected to the frame 10 around its axial rotation, and the second roller 236 is sleeved and fixed on the second support shaft 54.

[0088] It can be understood that each of the peeling mechanisms 20 includes two friction belts 234, and each of the peeling mechanisms 20 includes two sets of roller assemblies.

[0089] Among them, among the two peeling mechanisms 20, one peeling mechanism 20 is a first peeling mechanism, and the other peeling mechanism 20 is a second peeling mechanism; the third driving assembly 50 includes two third motors 51, each of which is transmission-connected with a third driving shaft 52, the third driving shaft 52 of one third motor 51 is fixedly connected to one of the first support shafts 53 on the first peeling mechanism, and the third driving shaft 52 of the other third motor 51 is fixedly connected to one of the first support shafts 53 on the second peeling mechanism, and each of the first support shafts 53 is sleeved and fixed with a third pulley 55.

[0090] Specifically, a third pulley 55 on the first peeling mechanism is linked with a third pulley 55 on the second peeling mechanism through belt transmission, and another third pulley 55 on the first peeling mechanism is linked with another third pulley 55 on the second peeling mechanism through belt transmission.

[0091] It should be noted that the rotational speeds of the two third drive shafts 52 on the two third motors 51 are different, so that the moving speeds of the two friction belts 234 on the first peeling mechanism are different, and the moving speeds of the two friction belts 234 on the second peeling mechanism are also different.

[0092] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: when peeling water chestnuts, a large amount of water chestnuts are poured into the feed hopper 211, and during the process of the first driving assembly 30 driving the limiting plate 221 to rotate, the water chestnuts fall into the respective receiving grooves 221a on the limiting plate 221 through the discharge port 211b in sequence; during the rotation of the limiting plate 221, the buds and roots of the water chestnuts in the receiving grooves 221a are cut and removed by the first peeling knife 232 and the second peeling knife 233, and then the water chestnuts with the buds and roots removed are passed through the supporting plate 25 The drop opening 251a on the conveyor 241a falls onto the conveyor belt 241a, and the conveyor belt 241a drives the water chestnut to move along the transmission channel. At this time, the water chestnut contacts the friction belts 234 on both sides, and the two friction belts 234 move at different speeds, so that the water chestnut rotates simultaneously while moving along the transmission channel. The water chestnut is peeled by friction with the friction belt 234 to rub off the side skin around the water chestnut, thereby completing the peeling of the water chestnut. At the same time, the peeled water chestnut is transported to the designated position through the conveyor belt 241a. Peeling the water chestnuts by the water chestnut peeling machine makes mechanization of water chestnut peeling a reality, meeting the requirements of high efficiency and low loss of water chestnut peeling, less human participation, high work efficiency, time and labor saving, low pulp loss rate, and high peel removal rate.
