Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rice polishing devices, and more specifically, it relates to a rice polishing device for rice processing. Background Technology

[0002] Rice polishing is the process of removing the outer layer of rice to improve its appearance and taste. It is typically done using a rice polishing machine, which works by using friction and airflow to remove the outer layer. Polished rice has a smoother surface, a brighter color, and a more delicate texture.

[0003] While existing polishing devices can polish rice, the following problems remain: Existing rice polishing machines require regular replacement and maintenance of the polishing rollers. Maintenance involves loosening the nuts securing the polishing rollers. However, these nuts are prone to wear after prolonged exposure to continuous high-frequency vibrations and heavy workloads. Once worn, the intense vibrations during machine operation significantly increase the risk of the nuts loosening. Currently used nut anti-loosening mechanisms often involve cumbersome procedures, requiring specialized tools or complex steps. This not only increases the difficulty for maintenance personnel but also directly slows down the entire disassembly and maintenance process, potentially leading to unnecessary production interruptions.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rice polishing device for rice processing. Utility Model Content

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a rice polishing device for rice processing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This utility model, through a linkage-type limiting structure and spring locking design, enables quick release of the limiting sleeve constraint with single-handed operation. Compared with traditional double-nut or washer anti-loosening solutions, it eliminates the need for alternating tool use and repeated tightening steps, improving the efficiency of fastener disassembly during polishing roller maintenance.

[0018] 2. This utility model adopts a multi-level mechanical interlocking mechanism, which forms a triple anti-loosening guarantee, effectively resists the high-frequency vibration of the polishing machine, prevents the nut of the threaded rod from loosening unexpectedly during operation, and reduces the equipment failure rate.

[0019] 3.

[0032] Please see Figures 1-8 A rice polishing device for rice processing includes a frame 1, a fixed pipe 2 fixedly connected to one side of the frame 1, a rotating pipe 3 rotatably connected inside the fixed pipe 2, a feeding roller 4 fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating pipe 3, a mesh shell 5 fixedly connected to the frame 1, a central pipe 6 fixedly connected to the rotating pipe 3, the central pipe 6 being located in the middle of the mesh shell 5, the central pipe 6 having a through hole, a polishing roller 7 sleeved on the outside of the central pipe 6, the polishing roller 7 being fixedly connected to the feeding roller 4, a feed hopper 8 fixedly connected to the fixed pipe 2, and a feed hopper 8 fixedly connected to the frame 1. Motor 9 is connected to rotating tube 3 via pulley and belt. Drainage pipe 10 is fixed inside frame 1. Fixing member 11 is provided on the other side of frame 1. Through hole communicating with mesh shell 5 is provided on the lower side of fixing member 11. Circumferentially spaced threaded rods 12 are fixed to frame 1. Fixing member 11 is sleeved on threaded rod 12. Limiting sleeve 13 is fixed to fixing member 11. Limiting sleeve 13 is sleeved on adjacent threaded rod 12. Threaded rod 12 is provided with fastening structure and limiting structure.

[0033] Please see Figures 4-6The fastening structure includes a nut 14, which is threadedly connected to a threaded rod 12. The nut 14 is press-fitted with a limiting sleeve 13, and a fixing sleeve 15 is fixedly connected to the nut 14. A sliding sleeve 16 is slidably connected to the fixing sleeve 15, and a spring 17 is fixedly connected between the sliding sleeve 16 and the fixing sleeve 15. Three limiting hooks 18 are fixedly connected to the fixing sleeve 15, and the sliding sleeve 16 is provided with three limiting grooves. The limiting hooks 18 are limited and fitted with the limiting grooves of the fixing sleeve 15.

[0034] Please see Figures 6-8 The limiting structure includes fixed seats 19 with equal circumferential spacing, fixed seats 19 are rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 20, the rotating shaft 20 is fixedly connected to a limiting hook 21, the limiting hook 21 is limited in fit with the limiting sleeve 13; a torsion spring 22 is between the rotating shaft 20 and the adjacent fixed seat 19; a fixed rod 23 is fixedly connected to the limiting hook, and the sliding sleeve 16 is provided with pressing parts 24 with equal circumferential spacing, the pressing parts 24 are pressed in fit with the fixed rod 23.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The sewage pipe 10 is connected to the blower, rice is put into the feed hopper 8, and then the motor 9 is started. The output shaft of the motor 9 rotates through the pulley and belt to rotate the pipe 3. At the same time, the polishing roller 7 and the conveying roller 4 rotate circumferentially inside the mesh shell 5. The conveying roller 4 conveys the polishing material into the mesh shell 5, and the polishing roller 7 rotates circumferentially to polish the rice. The impurities polished from the rice fall into the sewage pipe 10, the blower discharges the impurities, and the polished rice is discharged from the through hole of the fixing part 11.

[0036] When the mesh shell 5 and the feed roller 4 need to be replaced, first rotate the sliding sleeve 16 so that the pressing part 24 of the sliding sleeve 16 contacts the fixed rod 23. Then pull the sliding sleeve 16, and the pressing part 24 of the sliding sleeve 16 presses the fixed rod 23. The fixed rod 23 drives the limit hook 21 to rotate. The limit hook 21 drives the rotating shaft 20 to rotate, and the torsion spring 22 is tightened. The limit hook 21 loses contact with the limit sleeve 13. When the sliding sleeve 16 is pulled, the limit hook 21 and the groove of the sliding sleeve 16 limit the fit, so that the pressing part 24 and the fixed rod 23 are always pressed, ensuring that the torsion spring 22 is always in a tightened state. Turn the nut 14 with a wrench to release the pressure on the limit sleeve 13. After the nut 14 loses contact with the threaded rod 12, then remove the fixing part 11 and replace and repair the mesh shell 5 and the polishing roller 7.

[0037] After the replacement is completed, release the limit hook 18 from the sliding sleeve 16, so that the limit hook 21 loses contact with the limit sleeve 13. When the nut 14 is tightened, the limit sleeve 13 squeezes the limit hook, so that the limit hook is again in contact with the limit sleeve 13, and the squeezing part 24 does not contact the fixing rod 23.

[0038] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
