Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of olive processing technology, specifically a fully automatic olive peeling and halving machine for preparing olive corners. Background Technology

[0002] Black olives are a type of fruit from southern China. The fruit needs to be cooked, then cut horizontally with a thread or knife, the pit removed, the opening flattened, and pickled with salt before consumption. They are considered a pickled side dish.

[0003] In the traditional process of preparing black olives by peeling and halving, workers usually need to manually peel and halve each olive one by one. This repetitive and heavy labor not only makes the production speed slow and inefficient, but also greatly increases labor costs. In addition, due to the uncertainty and error of manual operation, it is difficult to ensure the consistency and standardization of the products, which also has a certain impact on the quality of the final product.

[0004] Therefore, this application provides a fully automatic machine for peeling and halving olives to prepare olive corners, in order to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] This invention provides a fully automatic olive peeling and halving integrated machine for preparing olive corners, aiming to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing olive peeling and halving process usually requires workers to manually peel and halve each olive, which has the problems of slow production speed and low efficiency.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a fully automatic olive peeling and halving integrated machine for preparing olive segments, comprising a PLC control system, a base, a frame fixedly installed at one end of the base, a storage bin fixedly installed at the end of the base away from the frame, a peeling mechanism fixedly installed on the frame, a conveying mechanism installed on the base for conveying materials in the storage bin to a position below the peeling mechanism, and a handling mechanism installed on the frame for picking up and placing materials from the conveying mechanism onto the peeling mechanism; through the coordinated operation of the PLC control system, storage bin, peeling mechanism, conveying mechanism, and handling mechanism, the entire process from olive conveying, picking up and placing, cutting to separating the pulp can be automated. This design greatly reduces manual operation and improves production efficiency.

[0009] To improve the automation level of the integrated machine, the peeling mechanism includes a cutting assembly mounted on the frame for cutting the material and a separating assembly mounted on the frame for separating the material from the cutting assembly. Both the cutting assembly and the separating assembly are connected to the output of the PLC control system. The PLC control system can precisely control the movement of the cutting assembly and the separating assembly, ensuring the automated peeling process without manual intervention and improving work efficiency.

[0010] To achieve high-efficiency automation, the conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt assembly mounted on the base, a guiding and distributing assembly positioned below the conveyor belt assembly near the storage bin for guiding the material on the conveyor belt assembly, and a lifting cylinder fixedly mounted on the base near the frame for lifting the material on the conveyor belt assembly to the handling mechanism. The conveyor belt assembly, guiding and distributing assembly, and lifting cylinder are all connected to the output of the PLC control system. Through the precise control of the PLC control system, the conveyor belt assembly, guiding and distributing assembly, and lifting cylinder can automatically convey materials at a predetermined speed and direction, improving overall work efficiency.

[0011] To improve production safety, the handling mechanism includes a first pneumatic gripper positioned above the top material cylinder on the conveyor belt assembly and a first drive mechanism fixedly mounted on the frame to drive the first pneumatic gripper to the cutter assembly. Both the first pneumatic gripper and the first drive mechanism are connected to the output of the PLC control system. Through the precise control of the PLC control system, the first pneumatic gripper can automatically pick up materials from the conveyor belt assembly and accurately transport the materials to the cutter assembly through the movement of the first drive mechanism. The entire handling process requires no manual intervention, reducing the risk of production accidents and work-related injuries caused by improper human operation.

[0012] Preferably, to facilitate the conveying of olives, the conveyor belt assembly includes a first connecting shaft and a second connecting shaft rotatably connected to the base at a position corresponding to the lower part of the storage bin and rotatably connected to the side of the frame away from the storage bin, respectively; a first transmission sprocket and a second transmission sprocket symmetrically fixedly sleeved on the first connecting shaft and the second connecting shaft, respectively; a chain disposed on the first transmission sprocket and the second transmission sprocket; idlers rotatably connected to the two chains on a side close to each other and linearly distributed; and a first drive motor disposed on the base for driving the first connecting shaft to rotate. The first drive motor is connected to the output end of the PLC control system. The first transmission sprocket and the second transmission sprocket are connected and transmit power through the chain. Power is transmitted through the first transmission sprocket and the second transmission sprocket on the first connecting shaft and the second connecting shaft and the chain connecting them, so that the olives can smoothly slide from the discharge port of the storage bin to the corresponding idlers and be stably conveyed forward.

[0013] Preferably, to enhance conveying stability, the conveyor belt assembly further includes a support shaft disposed on the side of the second connecting shaft near the first connecting shaft and rotatably connected to the frame, and support sprockets symmetrically fixedly sleeved on the support shaft and respectively contacting the two chains on the side near the top material cylinder. The top material cylinder is located inside the plurality of idlers. The design of the support shaft and support sprockets provides additional support points for the chains, which helps to reduce chain sagging and swaying during transmission, thereby ensuring stable conveying of olives to the top material cylinder.

[0014] Preferably, to facilitate the orderly conveying of olives, the guiding and distributing assembly includes a drive shaft symmetrically rotatably connected to the base and transversely passing through the two chains, a transmission wheel fixedly mounted on the drive shaft, a rolling belt disposed on the two transmission wheels and in contact with the bottom of the idler rollers near the storage bin, a first pulley fixedly mounted on one end of one of the drive shafts, a second drive motor fixedly mounted on the base, a second pulley fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the second drive motor, and a transmission belt disposed on the first pulley and the second pulley. The two transmission wheels are connected and transmit power through the rolling belt, and the first pulley and the second pulley are connected and transmit power through the transmission belt. The second drive motor is connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system. The design of the guiding and distributing assembly ensures that the olives falling from the outlet of the storage bin can fall orderly onto the idler rollers of the conveyor belt mechanism, avoiding overlap or crossing between the olives and ensuring that they are conveyed with a certain spacing and sequence.

[0015] Preferably, to facilitate the driving of the first pneumatic gripper, the first driving mechanism includes a mounting plate fixedly mounted on the frame corresponding to the side of the first pneumatic gripper, a rotating rod rotatably connected to the mounting plate, an arc-shaped groove on the mounting plate corresponding to the outer side of the rotating rod, a through groove on the end of the rotating rod away from the mounting plate, a sliding column with both ends slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove and the through groove respectively, a moving rod with both ends fixedly connected to the end of the sliding column near the through groove and the end of the first pneumatic gripper away from the top material cylinder respectively, a guide block rotatably connected to the side of the mounting plate near the cutter assembly, a guide groove on the guide block, and a first stepper motor fixedly connected to the mounting plate for driving the rotating rod to rotate. The end of the moving rod near the first pneumatic gripper is slidably mounted in the guide groove, and the first stepper motor is connected to the output end of the PLC control system. Through the precise control of the first stepper motor, the rotating rod can rotate at a predetermined angle and speed, thereby enabling the first pneumatic gripper to move accurately to the cutter mechanism, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the olive conveying.

[0016] Preferably, to facilitate precise cutting, the cutting assembly includes a fixed plate fixedly mounted on the frame at a position corresponding to the guide block; a double-headed cylinder fixedly mounted on the fixed plate near the guide block; a first sliding frame and a second sliding frame slidably connected to the fixed plate and respectively fixedly connected to the two movable ends of the double-headed cylinder; a first mounting base and a second mounting base slidably mounted on the first sliding frame and the second sliding frame respectively; a first circular blade symmetrically rotatably connected to the first mounting base near the second mounting base; and a blade rotatably connected to the second mounting base near the two first circular blades and located at two... The machine includes a second circular blade between the first circular blades, a connecting rod fixedly connected to one side of each of the first and second circular blades, and a second stepper motor fixedly mounted on the frame to drive the connecting rods to rotate. The second stepper motor and the double-headed cylinder are both connected to the output of the PLC control system. Through the combined use of the double-headed cylinder, the second stepper motor 419, the two first circular blades, and the second circular blade, precise cutting of olives can be achieved. At the same time, the positions of the two first circular blades and the second circular blade can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate olive pits of different sizes and shapes, enhancing the adaptability and flexibility of the integrated machine.

[0017] Preferably, to achieve buffer protection, the cutter assembly further includes symmetrically arranged and slidably connected slide rods on the first slide frame and the second slide frame, buffer springs sleeved on the slide rods, and stops fixedly sleeved on the ends of the two slide rods away from each other. The ends of the two slide rods away from the stops are fixedly connected to the first mounting base and the second mounting base, respectively. The two ends of the two buffer springs are fixedly connected to the first slide frame and the first mounting base, and the second slide frame and the second mounting base, respectively. The design of the buffer springs and slide rods effectively reduces the impact force of the cutting when the first and second circular blades cut, protecting the entire cutter mechanism.

[0018] Preferably, to facilitate the separation of the cut olive pulp, the separation assembly includes second pneumatic grippers symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first and second circular blades, a housing fixedly mounted on the frame corresponding to the side of the fixed plate away from the first circular blade, gears symmetrically rotatably connected to and meshing with each other within the housing, an eccentric rod fixedly connected to the side of the two gears away from each other, a connecting frame fixedly connected to the end of the eccentric rod away from the gears and connected to the corresponding second pneumatic gripper, a sliding seat fixedly connected to the frame and located on the side of the two second pneumatic grippers away from each other, and a fixed mounting bracket. A third stepper motor is positioned on the side of the housing away from the frame to drive one of the gears to rotate. The connecting frame is slidably connected to the sliding seat. The third stepper motor and the second pneumatic gripper are both connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system. The meshing design of the gears allows the two eccentric rods to move towards each other simultaneously and synchronously. This enables the two second pneumatic grippers, which grip the flesh on both sides of the olive, to move quickly and accurately to the flesh discharge hopper. At the same time, the spacing between the two second pneumatic grippers can be accurately adjusted to accommodate flesh of different sizes and shapes, thus improving the adaptability and flexibility of the integrated machine.

[0019] Preferably, in order to further achieve automation, the integrated machine also includes a feeding structure fixedly installed on the frame at a position corresponding to the first circular blade and the second pneumatic gripper; the feeding structure enables the olives to be automatically fed after peeling and halving without manual intervention, thereby realizing the automation of the entire processing flow.

[0020] Preferably, for ease of subsequent processing, the feeding structure includes a pit feeding hopper fixedly disposed on the frame at a position corresponding to the lower position of the first circular blade, and a pulp feeding hopper fixedly disposed on the pit feeding hopper at a position corresponding to the lower position of the second pneumatic gripper and connected to the frame; the design of the pit feeding hopper and the pulp feeding hopper allows the pits and pulp of the olives to be collected separately for different subsequent processing, increasing the flexibility and applicability of the integrated machine.

[0021] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0022] This integrated machine, through the coordinated operation of components such as PLC control system, storage bin, conveyor belt assembly, top cylinder, first pneumatic gripper, first drive mechanism, cutter assembly, and separation assembly, can automatically realize the entire process from olive conveying, lifting, grabbing, cutting to pulp separation. This design greatly reduces manual operation and improves production efficiency.

[0023] This integrated machine features a feeding structure consisting of a pit hopper and two pulp hoppers, allowing the pits and pulp of black olives to be collected separately for subsequent processing, thus increasing the machine's flexibility and applicability. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] This invention provides a fully automatic machine for peeling and halving olives to prepare olive corners, such as... Figures 1-6As shown, the integrated machine includes a PLC control system, a base 1, a frame 2 fixedly mounted at one end of the base 1, a storage bin 3 fixedly mounted at the end of the base 1 away from the frame 2, a peeling mechanism 4 fixedly mounted on the frame 2, a conveying mechanism 5 mounted on the base 1 for conveying materials from the storage bin 3 to a position below the peeling mechanism 4, and a handling mechanism 6 mounted on the frame 2 for picking up and placing materials from the conveying mechanism 5 onto the peeling mechanism 4. The peeling mechanism 4 includes a cutting blade assembly 41 mounted on the frame 2 for cutting materials and a separating assembly 42 mounted on the frame 2 for separating materials from the cutting blade assembly 41. Both the cutting blade assembly 41 and the separating assembly 42 are connected to the output of the PLC control system. The conveying mechanism 5 includes a conveyor belt assembly mounted on the base 1. 51. A guiding and distributing component 52 is installed below the side of the conveyor belt assembly 51 near the storage bin 3 to guide the material on the conveyor belt assembly 51, and a lifting cylinder 53 is fixedly installed on the base 1 near the frame 2 to lift the material on the conveyor belt assembly 51 to the conveying mechanism 6. The conveyor belt assembly 51, the guiding and distributing component 52 and the lifting cylinder 53 are all connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system. The conveying mechanism 6 includes a first pneumatic gripper 61 installed above the lifting cylinder 53 on the conveyor belt assembly 51 and a first drive mechanism 62 fixedly installed on the frame 2 to drive the first pneumatic gripper 61 to the cutter assembly 41. The first pneumatic gripper 61 and the first drive mechanism 62 are both connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system.

[0040] In use, pour the olives to be cut into the storage hopper 3, turn on the power switch of the integrated machine, and start the PLC control system. Then, the PLC control system will control the conveyor belt assembly 51 and the guiding and distributing assembly 52 to move, so that the olives to be cut in the storage hopper 3 are orderly conveyed to the position above the top material cylinder 53. When the olives to be cut are orderly conveyed to the position above the top material cylinder 53, the PLC control system will control the top material cylinder 53 to move, lifting the olives to be cut to the first pneumatic gripper 61. At the same time, the PLC control system will also control the first pneumatic gripper 61 to move, gripping the olives to be cut lifted by the top material cylinder 53. After the first pneumatic gripper 61 grips the olives to be cut, the PLC control system will control the first drive mechanism 62 to move. The system drives the first pneumatic gripper 61 to move the olive to be cut to the cutter assembly 41. Then, the PLC control system controls the cutter assembly 41 to move. After the cutter assembly 41 is in position, the PLC control system controls the first drive mechanism 62 to drive the first pneumatic gripper 61 to release the gripper and move away from the cutter assembly 41. At the same time, the PLC control system controls the cutter assembly 41 to cut the clamped olive. After the olive is cut, the PLC control system controls the separation assembly 42 to move closer to and clamp the flesh on both sides of the cut olive. Then, the PLC control system controls the separation assembly 42 to move back to the initial position, thus separating the olive flesh. Finally, the PLC control system controls the cutter assembly 41 and the separation assembly 42 to make the separated olive flesh fall automatically.

[0041] Specifically, the conveyor belt assembly 51 includes a first connecting shaft 511 and a second connecting shaft rotatably connected to the base 1 at a position corresponding to the lower part of the storage bin 3 and rotatably connected to the side of the frame 2 away from the storage bin 3, respectively; a first drive sprocket 512 and a second drive sprocket 513 symmetrically fixedly sleeved on the first connecting shaft 511 and the second connecting shaft, respectively; a chain 514 disposed on the first drive sprocket 512 and the second drive sprocket 513; idler rollers 515 rotatably connected to the two chains 514 on a side close to each other and linearly distributed; and a chain 514 disposed on the base 1 for driving the first connecting shaft 511. The first drive motor 516 rotates on the connecting shaft 511 and is connected to the output of the PLC control system. The first transmission sprocket 512 and the second transmission sprocket 513 are connected and transmit power through the chain 514. The conveyor belt assembly 51 also includes a support shaft 517 disposed on the side of the second connecting shaft near the first connecting shaft 511 and rotatably connected to the frame 2, and a support sprocket 518 symmetrically fixedly sleeved on the support shaft 517 and respectively in contact with the two chains 514 on the side near the top material cylinder 53. The top material cylinder 53 is located inside the multiple idler rollers 515.

[0042] After the olives to be cut are poured into the storage hopper 3, the PLC control system will control the first drive motor 516 to operate, and drive the first connecting shaft 511 connected to it to rotate. Since the first drive shaft 511 and the second connecting shaft are respectively symmetrically fixed with the first transmission sprocket 512 and the second transmission sprocket 513, and the first transmission sprocket 512 and the second transmission sprocket 513 are connected and transmit power through the chain 514, when the first connecting shaft 511 rotates, the two chains 514 will rotate synchronously. Since the two chains 514 are rotatably connected by linearly distributed idler rollers 515, the multiple idler rollers 515 can pass through the discharge port of the storage hopper 3 in sequence with the rotation of the chain 514 to receive the cut olives and convey them forward.

[0043] Furthermore, the guiding and distributing assembly 52 includes a drive shaft 521 symmetrically rotatably connected to the base 1 and transversely passing through two chains 514, a transmission wheel 522 fixedly mounted on the drive shaft 521, a rolling belt 523 disposed on the two transmission wheels 522 and in contact with the bottom of the idler roller 515 near the storage bin 3, a first pulley 524 fixedly mounted on one end of one of the drive shafts 521, a second drive motor 525 fixedly mounted on the base 1, a second pulley 526 fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the second drive motor 525, and a transmission belt 527 disposed on the first pulley 524 and the second pulley 526. The two transmission wheels 522 are connected and transmit power through the rolling belt 523, and the first pulley 524 and the second pulley 526 are connected and transmit power through the transmission belt 527. The second drive motor 525 is connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system.

[0044] When the idler roller 515 is used to convey the olives in the storage bin 3 forward in sequence, the PLC control system will synchronously control the second drive motor 525 to drive the second pulley 526 connected to it to rotate. Since the second pulley 526 is connected to the first pulley 524 on one of the drive shafts 521 through the transmission belt 527 and transmits power, when the second pulley 526 rotates, the transmission belt 527 can rotate synchronously. Since the transmission belt 527 is in contact with the bottom of the idler roller 515 located at the discharge port, as the transmission belt 527 rotates, the idler roller 515 that receives and cuts the olives at the discharge port can roll along with the forward rotation of the chain 514, so that the olives to be cut at the discharge port can be conveyed to the top material cylinder 53 in an orderly manner.

[0045] Furthermore, the first drive mechanism 62 includes a mounting plate 621 fixedly mounted on the frame 2 on one side corresponding to the first pneumatic gripper 61, a rotating rod 623 rotatably connected to the mounting plate 621, an arc-shaped groove 622 opened on the mounting plate 621 at the outer side of the rotating rod 623, a through groove 624 opened at the end of the rotating rod 623 away from the mounting plate 621, a sliding column 625 with its two ends slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove 622 and the through groove 624 respectively, and two ends of the sliding column 625 close to the through groove 624 respectively. The moving rod 626 is fixedly connected to the end of the first pneumatic gripper 61 away from the top material cylinder 53, the guide block 628 is rotatably connected to the side of the mounting plate 621 near the cutter assembly 41, the guide groove 629 is opened on the guide block 628, and the first stepper motor 627 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 621 for driving the rotating rod 623 to rotate. The end of the moving rod 626 near the first pneumatic gripper 61 is slidably installed in the guide groove 629, and the first stepper motor 627 is connected to the output end of the PLC control system.

[0046] When the top-loading cylinder 53 lifts the olives to be cut to the first pneumatic gripper 61 and uses the first pneumatic gripper 61 to pick them up, the PLC control system will continue to control the first stepper motor 627 to operate. At this time, the first stepper motor 627 will drive the rotating rod 623 to rotate in the arc-shaped slide groove 622. Due to the rotation of the rotating rod 623, the sliding column 625 can synchronously drive the moving rod 626 to slide in the through groove 624. Since the end of the moving rod 626 near the first pneumatic gripper 61 slides in... Therefore, as the rotating rod 623 rotates from one end of the arc-shaped slide groove 622 to the other end, the moving rod 626 can simultaneously drive the olive to be cut, which is gripped by the first pneumatic gripper 61, to rotate in an arc from the initial position to the cutter assembly 41. When the cutter assembly 41 cuts the olive to be cut, the first stepper motor 627 can drive the first pneumatic gripper 61 to rotate in an arc from the cutter assembly 41 back to the initial position so as to continue to grip the next lifted olive to be cut.

[0047] Furthermore, the cutting blade assembly 41 includes a fixed plate 411 fixedly mounted on the frame 2 at a position corresponding to the guide block 628; a double-headed cylinder fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 411 near the guide block 628; a first sliding frame 412 and a second sliding frame 415 slidably connected to the fixed plate 411 and respectively fixedly connected to the two movable ends of the double-headed cylinder; a first mounting base 413 and a second mounting base 416 slidably mounted on the first sliding frame 412 and the second sliding frame 415; a first circular blade 414 symmetrically rotatably connected to the first mounting base 413 near the second mounting base 416; and a second circular blade 417 rotatably connected to the second mounting base 416 near the two first circular blades 414 and located between the two first circular blades 414; and two... The first circular blade 414 and the second circular blade 417 are connected by a connecting rod 418 on one side, and a second stepper motor 419 is fixedly mounted on the frame 2 to drive the connecting rod 418 to rotate. The second stepper motor 419 and the double-headed cylinder are both connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system. The cutter assembly 41 also includes slide rods 410 symmetrically arranged and slidably connected to the first sliding frame 412 and the second sliding frame 415, buffer springs 4111 sleeved on the slide rods 410, and stops 4112 fixedly sleeved on the two slide rods 410 at opposite ends. The ends of the two slide rods 410 away from the stops 4112 are fixedly connected to the first mounting base 413 and the second mounting base 416, respectively. The two ends of the two buffer springs 4111 are fixedly connected to the first sliding frame 412 and the first mounting base 413, and the second sliding frame 415 and the second mounting base 416, respectively.

[0048] When the olive to be cut is transported to the cutter assembly 41 by the first pneumatic gripper 61, the PLC control system controls the double-headed cylinder to move. At this time, the double-headed cylinder pushes the first sliding frame 412 and the second sliding frame 415 closer together. As the first sliding frame 412 and the second sliding frame 415 move closer together, the first mounting base 413 and the second mounting base 416 can simultaneously drive the two first circular blades 414 and the second circular blades 417 to move closer to the upper and lower ends of the olive held by the first pneumatic gripper 61 and clamp it. Then, the PLC control system continues to control the first pneumatic gripper 61 to release the gripper of the olive to be cut and move it to the initial position. Immediately afterwards, the PLC control system controls the corresponding second stepper motor 419 to move. Through the connection of the connecting rod 418, the corresponding second stepper motor 419 can be driven. Two first circular blades 414 and second circular blades 417 rotate at a certain angle. As the two first circular blades 414 and second circular blades 417 rotate, the clamped olives can be automatically cut. However, during the cutting process, the slide bar 410 and the buffer spring 4111 can play a buffering and protective role to prevent the first circular blades 414 and second circular blades 417 from being subjected to excessive impact during cutting. After the separation component 42 separates the olive pulp, the PLC control system will control the double-headed cylinder to move the first sliding frame 412 and the second sliding frame 415 away. As the first sliding frame 412 and the second sliding frame 415 move away, the two first circular blades 414 and second circular blades 417 can move away from the cut olives synchronously, releasing the clamping of the cut olives. Then, the peeled and halved olives can be automatically unloaded.

[0049] It should be noted that the separation assembly 42 includes second pneumatic grippers 421 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first circular blade 414 and the second circular blade 417, a housing 422 fixedly arranged on the side of the frame 2 corresponding to the fixed plate 411 away from the first circular blade 414, gears 423 symmetrically rotatably connected to and meshing with each other in the housing 422, an eccentric rod 424 fixedly connected to the side of the two gears 423 away from each other, a connecting frame 426 fixedly connected to the end of the eccentric rod 424 away from the gear 423 and connected to the corresponding second pneumatic gripper 421, a sliding seat 425 fixedly connected to the frame 2 and located on the side of the two second pneumatic grippers 421 away from each other, and a third stepper motor 427 fixedly arranged on the side of the housing 422 away from the frame 2 for driving one of the gears 423 to rotate. The connecting frame 426 is slidably connected to the sliding seat 425. The third stepper motor 427 and the second pneumatic gripper 421 are both connected to the output terminal of the PLC control system.

[0050] After the two first circular blades 414 and the second circular blades 417 cut the olive, the PLC control system controls the third stepper motor 427 to drive the gear 423 connected to it to rotate. Since the two gears 423 mesh with each other, as the gears 423 rotate, the eccentric rod 424 begins to move in a circular motion around its fixed point. Since the eccentric rod 424 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 426, and the connecting frame 426 will slide on the sliding seat 425, it can drive the two second pneumatic grippers 421 to reciprocate. When the second pneumatic gripper 421 moves close to the cut olive, the PLC control system will activate the two second pneumatic grippers 421 to grip the peel on both sides of the cut olive. Then, the PLC control system will control the two second pneumatic grippers 421 to move away from each other, and the cut peel on the olive can be automatically separated. During the separation process, the second pneumatic grippers 421 will also flatten the separated peel. After that, the PLC control system will control the second pneumatic grippers 421 to release the gripping of the peel, and the separated peel can be automatically discharged and collected.

[0051] To further automate the process, the integrated machine also includes a feeding structure 7 fixedly mounted on the frame 2 below the first circular blade 414 and the second pneumatic gripper 421. The feeding structure 7 enables the olives to be automatically fed after peeling and halving without manual intervention, thus automating the entire processing flow.

[0052] In addition, for ease of subsequent processing, the feeding structure 7 includes a pit feeding hopper 71 fixedly mounted on the frame 2 below the first circular blade 414, and a pulp feeding hopper 72 fixedly mounted on the pit feeding hopper 71 below the second pneumatic gripper 421 and connected to the frame 2. When the PLC control system controls the two first circular blades 414 and the second circular blade 417 to release their clamping of the cut olives and controls the second pneumatic gripper 421 to release its gripping of the separated peel, the pits and peels will fall into the pit feeding hopper 71 and the corresponding pulp feeding hopper 72, respectively, for separate collection.

[0053] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application, based on the technical solution and concept of this application, should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
