Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fruit wine, and more specifically, to a fruit processing device for processing fruit wine. Background Art

[0002] Fruit wine is a wine formed by the fermentation of the sugar in the fruit itself by yeast. It contains the flavor of the fruit and alcohol. There are many types of fruit wine, such as hawthorn wine, which has bright color, refreshing sour taste, mellow taste, and prominent taste. It has the functions of eliminating stagnation, strengthening the spleen, and stimulating appetite. For example, apple wine is amber in color, sweet and sour, and contains rich vitamins, malic acid and citric acid. Another example is citrus wine, which is orange-yellow or light yellow, with obvious citrus peel aroma, and tastes delicious and sweet. Fruit wine can also promote the circulation of qi and blood, accelerate blood circulation, and proper drinking can nourish qi and blood, moisturize the skin and enhance physical strength.

[0003] When using apples or pears to make fruit wine, you need to remove the core first, because the core is bitter and slightly toxic. The apple peel contains a lot of nutrients, so try not to peel it, but make sure to wash it clean.

[0004] Currently, most fruit pits are removed in a semi-automatic manner, that is, a cutter is installed on a cylinder, and then people are placed under the cutter one by one, and the cylinder drives the cutter downward to remove the pits. This method relies on manual proficiency and is relatively dangerous. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a fruit processing device for processing fruit wine.

[0006] A fruit processing device for processing fruit wine comprises an inner fixing frame and a core removal mechanism, wherein a processing position is arranged on the upper part of the inner side of the inner fixing frame, a loading plate is rotatably connected to the outer side of the inner fixing frame, a plurality of placing frames for accommodating fruits are distributed in the circumferential direction of the loading plate, and a discharging port is arranged on the side of the placing frame close to the inner fixing frame;

[0007] The core removal mechanism includes a gear ring fixedly connected to the loading plate and a driving component for driving the gear ring to rotate. A gear meshing with the gear ring is arranged at the bottom of the inner side of the gear ring, and a tube cutter is arranged on the front side of the gear. When the gear ring rotates, it can drive the gear to rotate, thereby driving the tube cutter to move vertically back and forth through the gear, so as to remove the core of the fruit located at the processing position through the tube cutter.

[0008] Preferably, the inner side wall of the gear ring has toothless areas and toothed areas that are spaced apart, and the number of toothless areas and toothed areas is even. The number of material placement frames is consistent with the number of toothless areas and toothed areas, and the material placement frame is located on one side of the toothless area, and the number of teeth in a toothed area is equal to the number of teeth on the gear.

[0009] Preferably, the number of the material placing frame, the toothless area, and the toothed area are all two.

[0010] Preferably, the inner fixing frame is provided with a material drop opening above the processing position, and the lower sides of adjacent material placing frames are fixedly connected with arc-shaped material stop plates, which can block the upper side of the material drop opening.

[0011] Preferably, the upper end of the tube knife has a core removal tube portion for removing the core of the fruit, the tube knife has a core outlet tube portion located at the lower side of the core removal tube portion, the lower end of the core outlet tube portion has a core outlet port extending out of the tube knife, and the inner diameter of the core outlet tube portion is larger than the inner diameter of the core removal tube portion.

[0012] Preferably, a straight groove plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tube cutter, an eccentric shaft is installed on one side of the middle part of the gear, and the eccentric shaft is located inside the straight groove plate and can slide inside the straight groove plate.

[0030] Example

[0031] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a fruit processing device for processing fruit wine, comprising an inner fixing frame 1 and a core removal mechanism 3, wherein a processing position 11 is arranged on the upper part of the inner side of the inner fixing frame 1, a loading tray 2 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the inner fixing frame 1, a plurality of placing frames 21 for accommodating fruits are distributed in the circumferential direction of the loading tray 2, and a discharging port is arranged on the side of the placing frame 21 close to the inner fixing frame 1;

[0032] The core removal mechanism 3 includes a gear ring 31 fixedly connected to the loading tray 2 and a driving component 32 for driving the gear ring 31 to rotate. A gear 33 meshing with the gear ring 31 is provided at the bottom of the inner side of the gear ring 31, and a tube knife 34 is provided on the front side of the gear 33. When the gear ring 31 rotates, it can drive the gear 33 to rotate, thereby driving the tube knife 34 to move vertically back and forth through the gear 33, so as to remove the core of the fruit located at the processing position 11 through the tube knife 34.

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the driving component 32 can use a rotating driving device such as a reduction motor. When in use, the driving component 32 drives the ring gear 31 to rotate, the ring gear 31 drives the gear 33 to rotate, and the gear 33 drives the tube knife 34 to reciprocate vertically; the loading plate 2 rotates together with the ring gear 31, and the fruit is placed inside the material placement frame 21. When the material placement frame 21 rotates to the top of the processing position 11, the fruit will fall into the processing position 11, and then the reciprocating tube knife 34 will remove the fruit core, and a lower through hole 14 is opened at the bottom of the processing position 11 for the tube knife 34 to enter the processing position 11 upward. In the above, the internal fixed frame 1 is installed with the external frame.

[0034] That is, by setting up the internal fixing frame 1, the loading tray 2 and the core removal mechanism 3, the method of automatic loading and automatic removal of the fruit core after automatic loading is adopted, which is fully automated, does not require manual loading, does not rely on the worker's proficiency, and improves safety.

[0035] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the inner side wall of the gear ring 31 has an interval-arranged toothless area 311 and a toothed area 312, and the toothless area 311 and the toothed area 312 are both in an even number. The number of the material placement frames 21 is consistent with the number of the toothless area 311 and the toothed area 312, and the material placement frame 21 is located on one side of the toothless area 311, and the number of teeth in a toothed area 312 is equal to the number of teeth of the gear 33. The toothless area 311 is an area without gear teeth meshing with the gear 33, and the toothed area 312 is an area with gear teeth meshing with the driving component 32. When the toothless area 311 rotates to the position of the gear 33, the gear 33 will not rotate. When the toothed area 312 rotates to the position of the gear 33, the gear 33 will be driven to rotate. The gear 33 can be installed with the internal fixing frame 1 through the rotating shaft. The purpose of the gear teeth in the toothed area 312 being equal to the number of gear teeth in the gear 33 is that after the gear teeth in the toothed area 312 are fully meshed with the gear 33, the gear 33 can rotate exactly one circle, which means that the tube cutter 34 moves back and forth once to complete a fruit core removal operation. In order to prevent the gear 33 from rotating when it is not meshed, a damper can be set.

[0036] Furthermore, the number of the material placing frame 21, the non-toothed area 311, and the toothed area 312 is two. The material loading plate 2 rotates one circle, and two fruits can be processed.

[0037] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, the inner fixing frame 1 is provided with a material drop opening 12 above the processing position 11, and the lower sides of the adjacent material placing frames 21 are fixedly connected with arc-shaped material blocking plates 22, which can block the upper side of the material drop opening 12. When the tube cutter 34 moves upward to remove the fruit core, it will drive the fruit upward, and the purpose of the arc-shaped material blocking plate 22 is to block the upward fruit.

[0038] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the upper end of the tube knife 34 has a core removal tube part 341 for removing the fruit core, and the tube knife 34 has a core outlet tube part 342 located at the lower side of the core removal tube part 341, and the lower end of the core outlet tube part 342 has a core outlet 343 extending out of the tube knife 34, and the inner diameter of the core outlet tube part 342 is larger than the inner diameter of the core removal tube part 341. The tube knife 34 moves upward to remove the fruit core, and the fruit core enters the interior of the core removal tube part 341. When the fruit core is removed for the next time, the fruit core removed the previous time will be pushed into the interior of the core outlet tube part 342. The inner diameter of the core outlet tube part 342 is larger, which facilitates the discharge of the fruit core from the core outlet 343.

[0039] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, a straight groove plate 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pipe cutter 34, and an eccentric shaft 35 is installed on one side of the middle of the gear 33. The eccentric shaft 35 is located inside the straight groove plate 36 and can slide inside the straight groove plate 36. When the gear 33 rotates, the straight groove plate 36 is pushed to move vertically by the eccentric shaft 35, so that the pipe cutter 34 moves vertically back and forth. In order to ensure that the pipe cutter 34 can move vertically, a guide rod 5 is installed on the inner fixing frame 1, so that the guide rod 5 is movably inserted on one side of the pipe cutter 34 for guidance.

[0040] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the processing position 11 is a semi-enclosed structure with openings on the upper side and the front side, and the fruit enters from the upper side and exits from the front side of the processing position 11. When the discharge port on the material frame 21 is opposite to the drop port 12, the fruit inside the material frame 21 falls into the processing position 11.

[0041] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, a cylinder 4 is provided at the rear side of the processing position 11 for pushing out the fruit in the processing position 11. The cylinder 4 is used for discharging the fruit after the core is removed, and a rear through hole 13 is provided at the rear side of the processing position 11 so that the output end of the cylinder 4 can pass through the through hole 13 to push out the fruit.

[0042] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, a conveyor belt 6 is provided at the front side of the bottom of the loading tray 2. The conveyor belt 6 is used to convey the fruits into the interior of the loading frame 21 rotated to the bottom, and baffles can be installed on both sides of the conveyor belt 6 to allow the fruits to enter the loading frame 21 one by one.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] (1) Taking apples as an example, when in use, the driving component 32 drives the ring gear 31 and the loading tray 2 to rotate. When the gear teeth in the toothed area 312 engage with the gear 33, the gear 33 rotates. When the toothless area 311 rotates to the position of the gear 33, the gear 33 does not rotate.

[0045] (2) The apples are transported by the conveyor belt 6. When the material frame 21 rotates to the bottom, an apple enters the interior of the material frame 21. When the material frame 21 rotates to the top, the discharge port on the material frame 21 coincides with the drop port 12, and the apple falls into the processing position 11.

[0046] (3) The gear 33 rotates to drive the tube cutter 34 to move vertically back and forth, thereby cutting off the core of the apple through the core removal tube 341. The core enters the core removal tube 341 and finally enters the core outlet tube 342 and is discharged from the core outlet 343.

[0047] (4) Finally, the cylinder 4 extends to push out the apple with the core removed.

[0048] It should be noted that since the number of toothless areas 311 and toothed areas 312 are both even, the number of the material loading frames 21 is consistent with the number of toothless areas 311 and toothed areas 312. Therefore, when the gear teeth in the toothed area 312 are engaged with the gear 33, there is always a toothed area 312 located at the top, that is, the apple will not fall at this time, but the core will be removed. When the toothless area 311 rotates to the position of the gear 33, there is always a toothless area 311 located at the top, that is, the apple will fall at this time, and the tube knife 34 will not move to remove the core.

[0049] In the above, a conveying channel can be set at the position where the apples are pushed out to enter the cleaning pool for cleaning. Similarly, a waste box can also be set at the position of the core outlet 343 to receive the cores.

[0050] By arranging the loading plate 2, the core removal mechanism 3, and the toothless area 311 and the toothed area 312, the tube knife 34 can be kept stationary and the core can not be removed when the fruit falls. The tube knife 34 can move back and forth to remove the core only after the fruit falls. The whole process is orderly and the core removal speed is fast.
