Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of agricultural product processing technology, and specifically relates to a torreya grandis conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] Torreya grandis is a famous dried fruit. It is the kernel of the Torreya grandis tree, about the size of a date pit, and is usually processed into pepper-salt Torreya grandis, sugar-coated Torreya grandis, Torreya grandis crisps, etc.

[0003] In recent years, the cultivation area of ​​Torreya grandis has increased rapidly, and the yield has also improved, but the level of industrialization remains low. Currently, Torreya grandis processing is mainly based on traditional experience-based methods: cultivation, harvesting, post-ripening treatment, removal of the aril, washing and drying, roasting, grading, packaging, and storage. Therefore, the processing flow of Torreya grandis is numerous and complex, with a long pre-ripening and composting process and high environmental requirements. In addition, the aril, which has medicinal value, needs to be removed before processing. However, the traditional manual peeling method requires first allowing the aril to rot before removal, which is not only inefficient and time-consuming, but also results in the loss of its basic medicinal value due to the rotting of the aril.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop an automatic and intelligent control system for torreya processing equipment to improve torreya processing efficiency and ensure the consistency of torreya processing quality. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0026] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this stamping-type Torreya grandis peeling machine includes a frame 1 and a feeding trough 2, a conveying device 8, a stamping device 4, a driving device 5, a feeding trough 6, a peeling device 7, and a rotating mechanism 11, all mounted on the frame 1. The feeding trough 2 is used to convey Torreya grandis to the conveying device 8. The conveying device 8 includes a turntable 801 and a rotating drum 802. The turntable 801 is provided with a receiving station 803, a seed coat separation station 804, and a seed coat discharge station 805. The stamping device 4 includes a punch 9, which includes a pressing rod 901, a kernel ejection rod 902, and a peel ejection rod 903. The driving device 5 is used to drive the turntable 801 to rotate and drive the punch 9 to rotate vertically. The reciprocating motion of the drum 802 involves the sequential passage of the receiving station 803, the seed coat separation station 804, and the seed coat discharge station 805. The pressing rod 901 is located above the receiving station 803 and is used to press the Torreya grandis seeds from the feed trough 2 into the drum 802. The kernel discharge rod 902 is located above the receiving station 803 and is used to press the Torreya grandis seeds to separate the kernels from the seed coats and discharge the kernels. The peel discharge rod 903 is located above the seed coat discharge station 805 and is used to press the seed coats and discharge them. The feeding trough 6 connects the seed coat separation station 804 and the peeling device 7, which is used to remove residual seed coats.

[0027] The feeding trough 2 is the unloading point of the stamping type Torreya grandis peeling machine. Its main function is to guide the Torreya grandis so that its axis changes from horizontal to vertical and falls into the rotating drum 802 on the turntable 801. Its outlet is provided with a sloping trough wall to guide the Torreya grandis fruit to change direction. The feeding trough 2 has a simple structure, low cost and good reliability.

[0028] To elaborate further, the conveying device 8 is fixed to the frame 1 by the mounting plate 10. The mounting plate 10 has a kernel discharge hole 1001 and a seed coat discharge hole 1002. The kernel discharge hole 1001 is located at the seed coat separation station 804, and the seed coat discharge hole 1002 is located at the seed coat discharge station 805. The diameter of the kernel discharge hole 1001 is larger than the size of the kernel and smaller than the size of the seed coat.

[0029] The turntable 801 has five bottomless and coverless rotating cylinders 802 for fixing the Torreya nuts. Their number corresponds to the number of grooves in the grooved wheel 1102, ensuring one cylinder 802 is available for each intermittent cycle. When the Torreya nuts fall from the trough into the rotating cylinders 802 of the turntable 801, the turntable 801 rotates two grooves driven by the grooved wheel 1102, carrying the Torreya nuts to the seed coat separation station 804 and stopping. After the punch 9 completes the cutting, the turntable 801 rotates two stations, discharging the seed coat 14 remaining in the rotating cylinder 802 to the seed coat discharge station 805. After rotating two more stations, it returns to the inlet, completing one cycle. Overall, the turntable 801 completes the feeding, punching, and discharging process with each rotation of one station.

[0030] To elaborate further, the rotating mechanism 11 includes a dial 1101 and a grooved wheel 1102. The dial 1101 includes a notched disc 1103 and a protrusion 1104. The dial 1101 is provided with a lever 1105, which is mounted on the protrusion 1104. The grooved wheel 1102 is provided with a moving groove 1106. The grooved wheel 1102 is fixedly connected to the turntable 801 via a rotating shaft. When the dial 1101 rotates, the lever 1105 and the moving groove 1106 cooperate to make the grooved wheel 1102 rotate intermittently.

[0031] To elaborate further, the stamping device 4 includes a flying disc 401 and a connecting rod 402. The flying disc 401 rotates, and the first end of the connecting rod 402 is connected to the flying disc 401 and moves in a circle around the center of the flying disc 401. The second end of the connecting rod 402 is connected to the punch 9, and the second end of the connecting rod 402 drives the punch 9 to move in a linear reciprocating motion.

[0032] The punch 9 mainly consists of a crank-slider mechanism. The fly disk 401 is mounted in a bearing seat on the frame. The limiting block is fixed on the frame and coaxial with the small hole on the mounting plate 10 of the turntable 801. The punch 9 is inserted into the limiting block, and the punch 9 and the fly disk 401 are connected by a connecting rod 402. Because the limiting block allows the punch 9 to move only along the axial direction, when the fly disk 401 rotates, the punch 9 will perform reciprocating linear motion, thereby completing the punching of the torreya nuts. With the cooperation of the small hole on the mounting plate 10 of the turntable 801, the nut is punched and peeled off.

[0033] To elaborate further, the ejector rod 903 is a straight rod, located below the punch 9 mechanism. The second end of the ejector rod 903 reciprocates along its axial direction. A first connecting rod 904 is provided between the pressing rod 901 and the ejector rod 903, and a second connecting rod 905 is provided between the ejector rod 902 and the ejector rod 903. The first connecting rod 904 is bent and has a reinforcing rib 906.

[0034] To elaborate further, the drive device 5 is a drive motor, the output shaft 501 of the drive motor is connected to the rotating mechanism 11, the output shaft 501 of the drive motor is also provided with a first belt 14 pulley 13, the first belt 14 is connected to the second belt 14 pulley through the belt 14, the second belt 14 pulley is connected to the fly disc 401 through the first drive shaft 16 and the second drive shaft 17, the first drive shaft 16 and the second drive shaft 17 are connected by a bevel gear 18, and both the first drive shaft 16 and the second drive shaft 17 are provided with a coupling 19.

[0035] The transmission system is used to transmit motion between the grooved wheel 1102, the dial 1101, and the punch 9. It mainly consists of a synchronous belt drive and a bevel gear 18 drive, with a transmission ratio of [ratio missing]. The synchronous belt drive's driving pulley is mounted on the dial 1101 and connected by a set screw. The driven pulley is mounted on the drive shaft, and the other end of the drive shaft is connected to the driving pulley of the bevel gear 18 via a coupling 19. The drive shaft is mounted in a rolling bearing housing. The output shaft 501 of the driven gear is connected to the flyplate 401 of the punch 9 via the coupling 19. Utilizing the constant instantaneous transmission ratio of the synchronous belt drive and gear drive, it ensures that within the time it takes for the turntable 801 to rotate one station, the punch 9 can complete both the punching and lifting actions without interfering with the turntable 801. This is a crucial component of the punching-type torreya nut peeling machine for peeling.

[0036] To elaborate further, a limiting device 907 is provided on the frame 1. The limiting device 907 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the dispensing rod 903. The limiting device 907 and the dispensing rod 903 are slidably connected. The limiting device 907 is used to restrict the dispensing rod 903 from moving in a straight line.

[0037] To elaborate further, the peeling device 7 includes a grinding jar 701, a grinding motor 702, a drive shaft 703, and a driven shaft 704. The grinding jar 701 is mounted on the drive shaft 703 and the driven shaft 704. The grinding motor 702 drives the drive shaft 703 to rotate and drives the grinding jar 701 to rotate. Grinding balls are placed inside the grinding jar 701, and the grinding balls rub against the kernels.

[0038] To elaborate further, the frame 1 includes a base 101, a turntable 801 mounting base, a stamping mounting base 103, and a grinding mounting base 103.

[0039] To elaborate further, the mounting plate 10 is also connected to the fixing plate 20 via fixing rods 3. The driving device 5 is mounted on the fixing plate 20. The fixing plate 20 is square, and there are four fixing rods 3. The fixing rods 3 are located at the right angles of the four fixing plates 20, and the fixing rods 3 are perpendicular to the fixing plate 20 and the mounting plate 10 respectively.
