Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nut cleaning equipment, and particularly relates to a hazelnut cleaning machine and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] After the wild hazelnuts are fried and washed with water, the shell will naturally crack during the evaporation of water, allowing the hazelnut to open. At the same time, the sugar mud stuck on the surface of the shell during the frying process can be washed off, making the hazelnuts cleaner and more hygienic. The washed hazelnuts are also called "water-leaking hazelnuts."

[0003] Currently, there are two types of cleaning equipment on the market: spray type and immersion type. However, both of them require the product to be in direct and sufficient contact with water. This type of cleaning equipment only focuses on how to clean the product. However, the biggest difficulty in making "water-leaking hazelnuts" is that the hazelnuts that have been opened before cleaning will enter with water through the openings after being cleaned with water, causing the hazelnuts to become soft and deteriorate when exposed to water, and lose their due crispness. The conventional solution of the prior art is to manually select the opened hazelnuts before cleaning the fried hazelnuts, and then clean them; first, the work efficiency of manual selection is low; second, some hazelnuts with small cracks are difficult to be screened out during the manual selection process, but are cleaned together with the fried hazelnuts without cracks, which causes the fried hazelnuts with small cracks to enter with water through the cracks during the cleaning process, resulting in softening and deterioration. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hazelnut cleaning machine and a method of using the same. The overall structure is a drum type, and the cleaning is performed by a transfer method. A water storage cloth is installed close to the four sides of the drum, and a separate spraying area and a cleaning area are provided. The spraying area allows water to fully contact the water storage cloth, and then the excess water on the surface of the water storage cloth is scraped off by a brush, which also has the function of cleaning the water storage cloth. After the water storage cloth fully contacts the water in the spraying area and passes through the brush, it contacts the roasted hazelnuts in the cleaning area. The roasted hazelnuts are continuously rolled and rubbed with the water storage cloth under the rotation of the drum for cleaning, and the sugar mud on the surface of the shell is cleaned, and the shell is ensured to crack naturally during the evaporation of water.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

The roasted hazelnuts enter the feeding port through the hopper outlet, and then enter the drum through the feeding port. Through the continuous rotation of the drum, the hazelnuts are fully in contact with the water storage cloth on the inner wall of the drum in the cleaning area and Friction is generated to transfer the moisture on the water storage cloth to the hazelnut shell, and the sugar mud on the hazelnut shell after frying is cleaned. Since there is no excessive flowing water in the hazelnut shell, the phenomenon of softening and deterioration caused by water entering through the gaps in the shell is avoided. The hazelnuts rolled to the discharge port are discharged from the drum through the discharge port; the brush continuously brushes the water storage cloth in the drum during the rotation of the drum, one is to keep the water storage cloth clean, and the other is to scrape off the excess water on the water storage cloth and discharge it through the drain pipe on the brush.

A water storage cloth is installed close to the four sides of the drum, and a separate spraying area and a cleaning area are set. The spraying area allows water to fully contact the water storage cloth, and then the excess water on the surface of the water storage cloth is scraped off by a brush, which also has the function of cleaning the water storage cloth. After the water storage cloth fully contacts the water in the spraying area and passes through the brush, it contacts the fried hazelnuts in the cleaning area. The fried hazelnuts are continuously rolled and rubbed with the water storage cloth under the rotation of the drum to clean the sugar mud on the surface of the shell, and it is ensured that the shell naturally cracks during the evaporation of water. At the same time, the device of the present invention does not need to manually screen out the hazelnuts with openings after frying, so the production efficiency is greatly improved, and the labor cost is reduced; it avoids the phenomenon that the water of the hazelnuts with openings generated during the frying process will not enter the shell of the hazelnut through the openings during the later cleaning process, resulting in softening and deterioration.
