Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of spherical taro processing technology, specifically spherical taro processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, taro processing machines on the market cannot completely eliminate manual labor, resulting in low processing efficiency, substandard hygiene, and a lack of automated taro-cutting machines in use. Furthermore, the existing method of peeling taro involves manual cutting, which can cause skin irritation due to the alkaloids in the taro juice, requiring workers to wear thick gloves, further reducing efficiency. Therefore, improvements to existing technology are necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a spherical taro processing device to solve the above-mentioned problems, thereby resolving the issues mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To address the above problems, the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0005] A spherical taro processing device includes a support frame, a base plate, a separating mechanism, a cutting plate, a cutting mechanism, a guide seat, a rack, a push rod, a first motor, a gear, a funnel, a material pipe, a long-distance arc-shaped slide rail, a transmission roller, a conveyor belt, a connecting rod, a feed basket, and a spring. The base plate is welded to the support frame, and the separating mechanism is mounted on the base plate. The cutting plate is welded to the support frame, and the cutting mechanism is mounted on the cutting plate. A guide seat is welded to the cutting plate, and a rack is slidably connected within the guide seat. A push rod is welded to the rack, and the push rod and guide seat are slidably connected. The first motor is fixedly mounted on the cutting plate, and a gear is welded to the output end of the first motor. The funnel is fixedly mounted on the support frame, and a material pipe is welded to the funnel. A long-distance arc-shaped slide rail is fixedly connected to the support frame. A transmission roller is mounted on the support frame, and a conveyor belt is mounted on the transmission roller. A connecting rod is welded to the support frame, and a feed basket is welded to the connecting rod. The feed basket is in contact with the conveyor belt.

[0006] Preferably, the gear and rack mesh, and the gear and guide seat are rotatably connected. By setting the gear, the rack is driven to move.

[0007] Preferably, a spring is fixedly connected to the opening of the feed basket, and the spring is welded to the bracket. By incorporating the spring, the feed basket can vibrate slightly.

[0008] Preferably, the separation mechanism includes a separation plate, a stop bar, a slide cylinder, a slide plate, a hinge rod, a fixed seat, a second motor, and an eccentric wheel. The separation plate and the base plate are hinged together. A stop bar is welded to the separation plate. A slide cylinder is welded to the base plate. A slide plate is slidably connected inside the slide cylinder. A hinge rod is hinged to the slide plate. The hinge rod is hinged to the separation plate. A fixed seat is welded to the base plate. A second motor is fixedly installed on the fixed seat. The output end of the second motor is rotatably connected to the fixed seat. An eccentric wheel is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the output end of the second motor. The eccentric wheel contacts the separation plate. Taro falls onto the separation plate. There is a height difference of about 10cm between the separation plate and the secondary cylindrical cutter. This height will not damage the surface of the taro. The impact force from the height can also cause the residual material on the surface of the taro to fall off. After falling onto the separation plate, the second motor drives the eccentric wheel to rotate, which in turn causes the separation plate to move up and down, allowing the separation plate to vibrate and completely separate the residual material from the taro, thus completing the separation of the residual material from the taro.

[0009] Preferably, the cutting mechanism includes a guide plate, a side plate, a primary cylindrical cutter barrel, a secondary cylindrical cutter barrel, a third motor, an annular blade, a fourth motor, a gear ring, a support, a support shaft, a driven gear ring, a connecting rod, a support rod, a crossbar, a guide block, a guide rail, a connecting block, a top block, and a limiting plate. The cutting plate is welded with a guide plate and a side plate. A primary cylindrical cutter barrel is provided on the cutting plate, with six blades evenly distributed on its outer side. A secondary cylindrical cutter barrel is provided on the cutting plate, with an annular blade rotatably connected inside. A support is welded to the cutting plate, with a support shaft rotatably connected inside. A driven gear ring is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the support shaft, and a connecting rod is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the support shaft. The connecting rod and the support are slidably connected. A support rod is hinged to the connecting rod, a crossbar is welded to the support rod, a connecting block is welded to the crossbar, a top block is welded to the connecting block, and a limiting plate is welded to the cutting plate. Inside the primary cutter barrel is a ring-shaped blade with a radius close to that of the secondary cylindrical cutter barrel. At this time, the first motor reverses to drive the top rod to reset, and then the fourth motor starts to drive the gear ring to rotate. The gear ring drives the driven gear ring to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting rod to deflect. The connecting rod drives the support rod to move, which in turn causes the support rod to push the crossbar to move. The crossbar drives the connecting block to move, which in turn causes the top block on the connecting block to move and contact the two ends of the cylindrical taro, fixing the taro. The ring-shaped blade then works to peel off the front and back skins of the taro. At this point, the taro has completed spherical cutting.

[0010] Preferably, a third motor is fixedly mounted on the side plate, with its output end rotatably connected to the side plate, rotatably connected to the secondary cylindrical cutter barrel, and welded to the annular blade. The annular blade is driven to rotate by the third motor.

[0011] Preferably, a fourth motor is fixedly mounted on the cutting plate, and a gear ring is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the output end of the fourth motor, the gear ring meshing with a driven gear ring. The crossbar is moved by the fourth motor.

[0012] Preferably, a guide block is welded onto the crossbar, and a guide rail is welded onto the cutting plate, with the guide block slidably connected inside the guide rail. The crossbar is guided by the cooperation of the guide block and the guide rail.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention relates to a spherical taro processing equipment, which features fully automated operation, high taro processing efficiency, and complete handling of taro scraps. In specific use, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention automates the process of cutting taro into spherical shapes, fundamentally avoiding contact between taro and people during the cutting process. This ensures better hygiene in taro cutting production, improves peeling efficiency, and reduces labor costs for businesses. It not only increases efficiency but also increases profits, meeting the shape requirements of merchants. Furthermore, it takes into account the accumulation of scraps on the machine during the peeling process, effectively handling scraps and preventing clogging of the blades.

[0015] This invention solves the problems of unsanitary conditions and low efficiency in traditional manual taro cutting, realizes the automation of taro cutting, improves production efficiency, and the taro produced meets the corresponding size requirements according to the specifications of the cutting tube, so there is no need for further grading.

[0025] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the specific implementation adopts the following technical solution:

[0026] Example:

[0027] A spherical taro processing device includes a support frame 1, a base plate 2, a separating mechanism 3, a cutting plate 4, a cutting mechanism 5, a guide seat 6, a rack 7, a push rod 8, a first motor 9, a gear 10, a funnel 11, a material pipe 12, a long-distance arc-shaped slide 13, a transmission roller 14, a conveyor belt 15, a connecting rod 16, a feed basket 17, and a spring 18. The base plate 2 is welded to the support frame 1, the separating mechanism 3 is mounted on the base plate 2, the cutting plate 4 is welded to the support frame 1, the cutting mechanism 5 is mounted on the cutting plate 4, and the guide seat 6 is welded to the cutting plate 4. A rack 7 is slidably connected within the guide seat 6. A push rod 8 is welded to the rack 7, and the push rod 8 is slidably connected to the guide seat 6. A first motor 9 is fixedly installed on the cutting plate 4, and a gear 10 is welded to the output end of the first motor 9. A funnel 11 is fixedly installed on the bracket 1, and a material pipe 12 is welded to the funnel 11. A long-distance arc-shaped slide 13 is fixedly connected to the bracket 1. A transmission roller 14 is provided on the bracket 1, and a conveyor belt 15 is provided on the transmission roller 14. A connecting rod 16 is welded to the bracket 1, and a feed basket 17 is welded to the connecting rod 16. The feed basket 17 is in contact with the conveyor belt 15.

[0028] The gear 10 meshes with the rack 7, and the gear 10 is rotatably connected to the guide seat 6. By setting the gear 10, the rack 7 is driven to move.

[0029] A spring 18 is fixedly connected to the opening of the feed basket 17, and the spring 18 is welded to the bracket 1. By setting the spring 18, the feed basket 17 can vibrate slightly.

[0030] The separation mechanism 3 includes a separation plate 31, a stop bar 32, a slide cylinder 33, a slide plate 34, a hinge rod 35, a fixed seat 36, a second motor 37, and an eccentric wheel 38. The separation plate 31 is hinged to the base plate 2. The stop bar 32 is welded to the separation plate 31. The slide cylinder 33 is welded to the base plate 2. The slide plate 34 is slidably connected inside the slide cylinder 33. The hinge rod 35 is hinged to the slide plate 34. The hinge rod 35 is hinged to the separation plate 31. The fixed seat 36 is welded to the base plate 2. The second motor 37 is fixedly installed on the fixed seat 36. The output end of the second motor 37 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat 36. The eccentric wheel 38 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the output end of the second motor 37. The eccentric wheel 38 is in contact with the separation plate 31. The taro falls onto the separating plate 31. There is a height difference of about 10cm between the separating plate 31 and the secondary cylindrical cutter 54. This height will not damage the surface of the taro. The impact force from the height can also cause the remaining material on the surface of the taro to fall off. After falling, the taro is on the separating plate 31. The second motor 37 drives the eccentric wheel 38 to rotate, which causes the separating plate 31 to start moving up and down. This allows the separating plate 31 to vibrate, so that the remaining material on the taro is completely separated, thus completing the separation of the remaining material from the taro.

[0031] The cutting mechanism 5 includes a guide plate 51, a side plate 52, a primary cylindrical cutter barrel 53, a secondary cylindrical cutter barrel 54, a third motor 55, an annular blade 56, a fourth motor 57, a gear ring 58, a support 59, a support shaft 510, a driven gear ring 511, a connecting rod 512, a support rod 513, a crossbar 514, a guide block 515, a guide rail 516, a connecting block 517, a top block 518, and a limiting plate 519. The guide plate 51 is welded to the cutting plate 4, the side plate 52 is welded to the cutting plate 4, and the primary cylindrical cutter barrel 53 is provided on the cutting plate 4. Six blades are evenly distributed on the outer side of the primary cylindrical cutter barrel 53. The device includes a two-stage cylindrical cutter barrel 54, within which an annular blade 56 is rotatably connected. A support 59 is welded onto the cutting plate 4, and a support shaft 510 is rotatably connected within the support 59. A driven toothed ring 511 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the support shaft 510, and a connecting rod 512 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the support shaft 510. The connecting rod 512 and the support 59 are slidably connected. A support rod 513 is hinged to the connecting rod 512, and a crossbar 514 is welded onto the support rod 513. A connecting block 517 is welded onto the crossbar 514, and a top block 518 is welded onto the connecting block 517. A limit plate 519 is welded onto the cutting plate 4. Inside the primary cutter barrel 54, there is an annular blade 56 with a radius close to that of the secondary cylindrical cutter barrel 54. At this time, the first motor 9 reverses and drives the top rod 8 to reset. Then, the fourth motor 57 starts and drives the gear ring 58 to rotate. The gear ring 58 drives the driven gear ring 511 to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting rod 512 to deflect. The connecting rod 512 drives the support rod 513 to move, which in turn pushes the crossbar 514 to move. The crossbar 514 drives the connecting block 517 to move, which in turn causes the top block 518 on the connecting block 517 to move and contact the two ends of the cylindrical taro, fixing the taro. The annular blade 56 works to peel off the front and back skins of the taro. At this time, the taro has completed spherical cutting.

[0032] A third motor 55 is fixedly mounted on the side plate 52. The output end of the third motor 55 is rotatably connected to the side plate 52 and to the secondary cylindrical cutter cylinder 54. The output end of the third motor 55 is welded to the annular blade 56. The annular blade 56 is driven to rotate by the third motor 55.

[0033] A fourth motor 57 is fixedly mounted on the cutting plate 4. A gear ring 58 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the output end of the fourth motor 57, and the gear ring 58 meshes with the driven gear ring 511. The fourth motor 57 drives the crossbar 514 to move.

[0034] A guide block 515 is welded to the crossbar 514, and a guide rail 516 is welded to the cutting plate 4. The guide block 515 is slidably connected inside the guide rail 516. The crossbar 514 is guided by the cooperation of the guide block 515 and the guide rail 516.

[0035] The invention is used as follows: Taro sequentially passes through the feeding basket 17, the long-distance arc-shaped slide 13, and the funnel 11 into the cutting plate 4, and is fed by the conveyor belt 15. A spring 18 is installed on one side of the feeding basket 17, and the reciprocating motion of the spring 18 completes the feeding of individual taro. Small protrusions are added to the inner wall of the funnel 11 to prevent the taro from being damaged during the fall. When the taro passes through and reaches the cutting plate 4, the first motor 9 starts to drive the gear 10 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 10 drives the rack 7 to move, which in turn causes the push rod 8 to move and contact the taro, thus feeding the taro. The taro is pushed into the horizontally placed primary cylindrical cutter cylinder 53. Driven by the pusher rod 8, the taro is first cut into a cylindrical shape. Six blades are distributed outside the primary cylindrical cutter cylinder 53 to further cut the remaining material, making it smaller so it can fall from the cutting plate 4 onto the remaining material separation plate 31. Then, the pusher rod 8 continues to push the taro, pushing the taro that has completed one cut into the secondary cylindrical cutter cylinder 54. The secondary cylindrical cutter cylinder 54 contains a ring-shaped blade 56 with a radius close to that of the secondary cylindrical cutter cylinder 54. At this time, the first motor... 9. The reverse drive rod 8 resets, then the fourth motor 57 starts, driving the gear ring 58 to rotate. The gear ring 58 drives the driven gear ring 511 to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting rod 512 to deflect. The connecting rod 512 drives the support rod 513 to move, which in turn pushes the crossbar 514 to move. The crossbar 514 drives the connecting block 517 to move, which in turn causes the top block 518 on the connecting block 517 to move and contact the two ends of the cylindrical taro, fixing the taro. The annular blade 56 then works, peeling off the front and back skins of the taro. At this point, the taro has completed spherical cutting. After the spherical taro is cut, it falls onto the separating plate 31. There is a height difference of about 10cm between the separating plate 31 and the secondary cylindrical cutter 54. This height will not damage the surface of the taro. The impact force from the height will also cause the remaining material on the surface of the taro to fall off. After falling, the taro is on the separating plate 31. The second motor 37 drives the eccentric wheel 38 to rotate, which causes the separating plate 31 to start moving up and down. This allows the separating plate 31 to vibrate, so that the remaining material on the taro is completely separated, thus completing the separation of the remaining material from the taro.
