Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chestnut processing technology, specifically to a size separator for chestnut processing. Background Technology

[0002] Chestnuts are the nut-like fruit of plants belonging to the genus *Castanopsis* in the family Fagaceae. They are best known for their edible kernel encased in a hard, spiky shell. This ancient and important nut originated and is widely cultivated in East Asia. In chestnut processing, the first step is screening. Current technology typically uses a size separator to separate chestnuts by passing them through sieve holes of different sizes. However, existing size separators for chestnut processing are inefficient, produce low-quality results, and cannot perform graded screening. Therefore, to address this problem, this paper proposes a size separator for chestnut processing. Utility Model Content

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-4 A chestnut size separator includes a fixed base 1, an mounting platform 3 inside the fixed base 1, and multiple fine sieve holes 2 on the outer side of the mounting platform 3. A threaded rod 14 is provided at the top of the mounting platform 3. A separating seat 13 is installed at the top of the fixed base 1, and multiple coarse sieve holes 4 are provided at the bottom of the separating seat 13. A mounting base 17 is installed at the middle position of the bottom of the separating seat 13, and a fixing groove 15 is provided at the bottom of the mounting base 17. A drive motor is installed inside the mounting base 17. The motor 16 has an output end that passes through the bottom of the separator 13 and is connected to a plug 12. Vertical rods 10 are installed on both sides of the top of the separator 13. A cover plate 9 is provided on the top of the separator 13. A mounting post 11 is installed at the middle position of the bottom of the cover plate 9 through a bearing. A slot 6 is provided at the bottom of the mounting post 11. Multiple sweeping plates 5 are installed on the outer side of the bottom of the mounting post 11. A positioning groove 7 is provided on both sides of the top of the cover plate 9. A handle 8 is installed at the middle position of the top of the cover plate 9.

[0020] The positioning groove 7 is located directly above the vertical rod 10, and the top end of the vertical rod 10 passes through one end of the positioning groove 7 and extends to the top of the cover plate 9.

[0021] The mounting post 11 is positioned directly above the insert block 12, and the top end of the insert block 12 passes through the bottom end of the mounting post 11 and extends into the slot 6.

[0022] Both the insert block 12 and the slot 6 are regular hexagonal prisms, and the outer side of the insert block 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the slot 6;

[0023] The bottom end of the sweeping plate 5 is in contact with the top end of the coarse screen hole 4, and one end of the sweeping plate 5 is close to the inner wall of the separation seat 13;

[0024] The top of the mounting platform 3 is in contact with the bottom of the mounting base 17, and the outer side of the bottom of the mounting platform 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the fixing base 1.

[0025] One end of the threaded rod 14 passes through the mounting platform 3 and the mounting base 17 in sequence and extends into the inside of the fixing groove 15, and the inner wall of the fixing groove 15 is provided with an internal thread that matches the outer side of the threaded rod 14.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3and Figure 4 As shown, in the operation of this device, firstly, the separation seat 13 allows the chestnuts to be screened to be placed inside it. Then, using the mounting column 11 and the insert block 12, the insert block 12 is aligned with the slot 6 and inserted into the slot 6. Next, the vertical rod 10 passes through the positioning groove 7, allowing the cover plate 9 to stably cover the separation seat 13. Then, the drive motor 16 is activated, causing the insert block 12 to rotate. This rotation of the insert block 12 rotates the mounting column 11, causing multiple sweeping plates 5 to sweep at the bottom of the separation seat 13, thus turning the chestnuts and allowing small chestnuts to stably pass through the coarse sieve holes 4. This device achieves chestnut size separation by utilizing the sweeping plate 5, which effectively prevents clogging and ensures stable separation. Furthermore, the device includes a mounting platform 3. After small chestnuts pass through the coarse sieve holes 4, they roll on the outside of the platform. The fine sieve holes 2 on the outside of the platform further separate them by size, achieving graded separation and improving the quality of chestnut separation. Finally, the device features a threaded rod 14 and a fixing groove 15. The threaded connection between the threaded rod 14 and the fixing groove 15 allows for flexible installation and disassembly of the mounting platform 3, facilitating the removal of the screened chestnuts after separation. This makes the device convenient and practical.
