Full-automatic pitting and cutting method and equipment for fruits

Abstract

The invention relates to a full-automatic pitting and cutting method and equipment for drupe fruits including apricots, plums and the like. The pitting and cutting method comprises the steps of fruitselection, cleaning, airing, peel scratching and pitting and cutting. The pitting and cutting equipment comprises a frame, a conveying mechanism, a feeding mechanism, a peel scratching mechanism, a pit rushing and cutting mechanism, a power mechanism, a discharging device and a self-cleaning device. The conveying mechanism is installed on the frame; a driving motor is controlled by a programmablelogic controller (PLC) to drive a conveying belt consisting of pitting and cutting trays to move forward; materials are borne and conveyed by the pitting and cutting trays to the feeding mechanism forpositioning; the peel scratching mechanism scratches peel; an air cylinder in the pit rushing and cutting mechanism drives a rushing rod and a tool bit to do reciprocating motion to complete pittingand slitting of the materials; and cut pulp slides out of a discharge port under the action of gravity and vibration, so that processing of the materials is completed. The self-cleaning device can clean key components including the rushing rod and the like after the equipment is used. By using the equipment, directional cutting and pitting of the fruits can be realized; processed pulp sections aresmooth and are small in damage; pits are clean; and qualified high-quality raw materials can be provided for follow-up processing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and equipment for fully automatic fruit pitting and cutting, in particular to a method and equipment for fully automatic pitting and cutting of stone fruits such as apricots and plums, and can realize directional cutting of fruits. equipment. It belongs to the field of fruit processing machinery. Background technique [0002] Stone fruits such as apricots and plums have a short maturity period, concentrated time on the market, and are not easy to store and transport. Therefore, besides being eaten fresh, stone fruits such as apricots and plums are mostly processed in production areas to produce dried, preserved and canned products and circulate in the market. [0003] The pitting and cutting of apricots and plums is an important process in the processing process. At present, most of the pitting and cutting methods rely on manual work, with unstable quality, low efficiency, poor sanitation and high cost, and lack of la...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The pitting and cutting of apricots and plums is an important process in the processing process. At present, most of the pitting and cutting methods rely on manual work, with unstable quality, low efficiency, poor sanitation and high cost, and lack of labor in production areas. Resources limit the large-scale production of related products

[0004] The corresponding mechanized processing is either cutting around the apricot and then vibrating to separate the apricot meat and apricot core; or using the principle of leverage to drive the punching rod to remove the core; or a simple motor driving the cam slider mechanism to drive the punching rod to punch The apricot core is cut at the same time; the apricot petals processed by the above method have the following problems: the apricot is cut around the apricot and the apricot meat is not completely cut through, so that the core meat is not separated, or the incision is too deep to break the apricot core and cause pollution; simply punch with a punch Take out the apricot core and cut it into pieces. The apricot core is impacted by the punch to break the apricot flesh. Usually, the apricot core will bring out a piece of apricot flesh. The lack of apricot flesh will lead to a decline in product quality, which cannot meet the needs of the production of dried fruit, preserved fruit and canned products. and other product requirements
