Grapefruit oil sac layer separation equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses grapefruit oil sac layer separation equipment comprising a rack, a lifting mechanism, a cutter control mechanism, a cutting mechanism and a location rotating mechanism, and a cutter mounting rod and a cutter rest connecting rod are driven by a screw rod and a connecting rod air cylinder to integrally move up and down; the cutter mounting rod is hinged to the cutter rest connecting rod, and a front swing cylinder is hinged to the cutter rest connecting rod; the connecting rod is hinged to the middle of the cutter mounting rod to form a lever fulcrum, and a rear swing cylinder is arranged at the rear end of the connecting rod and hinged to the rear end of the cutter mounting rod to form a horizontal lever, so that a cutter is controlled to be close to or keep away from a grapefruit; a cutter head is an arc-shaped cutter head, and the two sides of the cutter rest are suspended; the direction of the cutter head can be changed, and the middle of the cutter rest is connected with the cutter rest connecting rod through a hinge pin with a spring; it can be ensured that the cutting depth is always controlled within the range of 1.1-2 mm; the grapefruit is located through a lower ejector pin and an upper cylinder pressing block, and a bearing is arranged for assisting rotation; and the situation that the cutting of the cutter head is unsmooth due to shaking and consequently a cut oil bag layer is broken is avoided.
