[0029] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, it should be understood that after reading the content taught by the present invention, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms fall within the scope limited by the appended claims of the application equally.

[0030] Example 1 This embodiment specifically provides a fruit automatic processing device, such as Figure 1-9 As shown, the device includes a mounting frame, a central column is arranged at the bottom of the mounting frame, a grapefruit wrapping and peeling mechanism is arranged on the top of the central column, a pulp cutting and separating mechanism is arranged on the top of the grapefruit wrapping and peeling mechanism, and the pulp cutting and separating mechanism is arranged on the horizontal plate at the top of the mounting frame.

[0031] The processing device is described in detail below using the grapefruit processing process.

[0032] When the grapefruit processing device designed above is put into use in a grapefruit processing plant, it is used in conjunction with a conveyor belt and a manipulator. Two groups of conveyor belts are arranged around the mounting frame, one group of conveyor belts is used to convey the grapefruit peel, and the other group of conveyor belts is used to convey the grapefruit pulp, and then the next step of operation is carried out.

[0033] The grapefruit wrapping and peeling mechanism includes a supporting column, a frustum is arranged on the supporting column, and a plurality of cutting petals with equal intervals are arranged around the frustum. The cutting petals are made of silicone or elastic steel. The plurality of petals gather to form an ellipsoid structure, and its shape is similar to that of a grapefruit. Arc-shaped cutting blades are arranged on both sides of each cutting petal. The arc-shaped cutting blades can be bent and flattened as the petals open, and their materials can be deformable elastic steel or plastic.

[0034] A circular ring is arranged around the support column, and a plurality of guide holes are arranged on the circular ring. A guide column is arranged in each guide hole, and the guide column can move horizontally in the guide hole. The top of the guide column is connected to the back of the cut petals. At least two telescopic rods A are arranged at the bottom of the circular ring. In this embodiment, three telescopic rods A are arranged, and hydraulic rods can be used for the three telescopic rods A. Alternatively, one of the telescopic rods A can adopt a hydraulic cylinder, and the other two telescopic rods A can adopt a nested structure of an outer cylinder and an inner rod, and the inner rod can move up and down in the outer cylinder.

[0035] In the initial state, telescopic rod A drives the circular ring to pull the cut petals down and unfold through the guide column, exposing the upper surface of the round table. Then the grapefruit on the conveyor belt is placed on the round table by a robot, and the telescopic rod A is piled upward. The guide rod moves inward along the guide hole and pushes up the petals to wrap the grapefruit. The arc-shaped blades on both sides of the petals sink into the grapefruit peel, and then the arc-shaped blades are squeezed by the peeling auxiliary mechanism to continue to sink inward, which is enough to completely cut the grapefruit peel.

[0036] In order to prevent the guide rod from being disengaged from the guide hole, a cross bar is provided at the portion of the guide rod below the guide hole. The existence of the cross bar can prevent the guide rod from being disengaged from the guide hole.

[0037] The above-mentioned peeling auxiliary mechanism includes an extrusion shear, which is formed by splicing two semicircular extrusions. The two semicircular extrusions are made of plastic material with a thickness of about 1-3 cm. A handle is arranged on the same side of the two semicircular extrusions. The two handles are arranged on the same hinge axis. The hinge axis is arranged on arm A on the cross. Arm C symmetrical to arm A is connected to the downward flip assembly. Baffles are arranged on arm B and arm D of the cross. A reset spring is arranged between the two baffles and the handles adjacent to them. The two ends of the reset spring are hinged to the baffle and the handle respectively.

[0038] The downward flipping assembly includes a fixed seat, a rear wall of the fixed seat is arranged on the vertical side wall of the mounting frame, and a front wall of the fixed seat is provided with grooves distributed along its height direction, a screw rod is arranged in the groove, the top of the screw rod is connected to the output shaft of motor A through a reducer and a coupling, motor A is arranged on the top of the fixed seat, a slider A is arranged on the screw rod, an open groove is arranged at the front end of slider A, an arm C of the cross is located in the open groove and intersects with slider A, a motor B is arranged on the top of slider A, the output shaft of motor B passes through slider A and is connected to the driving wheel key, and a driven wheel is arranged at the bottom of arm C of the cross, and the driven wheel is meshed with the driving wheel.

[0039] After the cut petals wrap the pomelo, under the action of the reset spring, the diameter of the inscribed circle formed by the two semicircular extrusion pieces staggered up and down is the smallest and is located at the top of the petals; then start the motor A, and the slider A moves downward on the screw rod. As the diameter of the cross-section of the pomelo continues to increase, the semicircular extrusion piece is forced to open, and in this process, the semicircular extrusion piece moves downward to squeeze the arc-shaped blade on the cutting petals to sink into the pomelo peel, cutting the entire pomelo peel; then continue to push the semicircular extrusion piece upward, and after it is pushed above the top of the pomelo, start the telescopic rod A, and the cutting petals are pulled outward by the guide column, thereby separating the pomelo peel from the pulp, and then push the horizontal cutting blade to separate the pomelo peel and the pulp at the bottom of the pomelo; then restart the motor A, move the semicircular extrusion piece downward, and set a pressure rod on the inner side of the semicircular extrusion piece. When the sensor detects that the pressure changes from small to large and then to small, the motor A is stopped, and then the motor A is reversed to use the semicircular extrusion piece to lift the entire grapefruit pulp upwards. Finally, the robot grabs the grapefruit peel on the round table and places it on the conveyor belt; the grabbed pulp is placed on the round table again, and the semicircular extrusion piece is moved upwards, and the motor B is started to drive the driving wheel to rotate, and the meshing driven wheel drives the cross to rotate 90 degrees to both sides of the fixed seat, and the semicircular extrusion piece rotates to the side of the grapefruit pulp, and then the pulp cutting and separation mechanism is started to cut the pulp.

[0040] In order to prevent the grapefruit peel from rolling off the round table, a limit needle is set on the round table. The limit needle can penetrate into the peel to fix the grapefruit. When the grapefruit peel is separated, the grapefruit pulp that moves down again is fixed. A telescopic rod B is set at the bottom of the limit needle. The telescopic rod B is wrapped inside the support column. In fact, the support column is a cylindrical structure. The round table is fixed on the cylinder. The limit needle passes through the round table and is partially exposed on the round table. The telescopic rod B adopts a hydraulic cylinder / electric push rod.

[0041] The inner surface of the cut petals is provided with a plurality of barbs (similar to arrows). When the cut petals gather to wrap the pomelo, the barbs penetrate into the pomelo peel to fix the pomelo peel, thereby preventing the cut pomelo peel from being separated from the pomelo pulp when the cut petals are reversed outward later.

[0042] The outer end of the above-mentioned middle arc-shaped cutting blade is located at the central axis of the side wall of the cutting petals or at a distance of 1 / 3 from the inner surface, and the inner end surface of the arc-shaped cutting blade exceeds the inner surface of the cutting petals.

[0043] The above-mentioned horizontal cutting blade is flush with the top of the exposed limiting needle head and is connected to a horizontal electric push rod, and the horizontal electric push rod is fixed on the vertical side wall of the mounting frame.

[0044] The motor A, motor B, pressure sensor, horizontal electric push rod, telescopic rod A, and telescopic rod B mentioned above are all connected to the control end, and the start and stop of motor A, motor B, horizontal electric push rod, telescopic rod A, and telescopic rod B are automatically controlled by the program. The control end can be set on the base of the mounting frame and configured with a control interface to facilitate the adjustment of parameters or control of the start and stop of the entire device. The procedures mentioned here are conventional technologies in this field, so they will not be repeated one by one in this application.

[0045] Example 2 Based on Example 1, this example describes the pulp cutting and separation mechanism in detail.

[0046] The pulp cutting and separation mechanism comprises a telescopic rod C, which is arranged on a horizontal plate at the top of the mounting frame. A central column A is arranged below the telescopic rod C, and a pulp cutting and separation component is arranged on the central column A.

[0047] The pulp cutting and separation component includes a telescopic rod D, which is arranged at the lower end of a central column A, the telescopic rod D is arranged on the inner side of the central column A, and a central column B is arranged below the telescopic rod D, a plurality of equally spaced connecting rod units are arranged along the circumference of the central column B, a cutting needle is hinged at the end of the connecting rod unit, a ring platform is arranged on the outer side of the bottom of the central column B, there is a gap between the ring platform and the central column B, the top of the ring platform is connected to the central column A through a fixed column, and a plurality of equally spaced guide rails are arranged along the circular wall of the ring platform, the guide rails correspond to the connecting rod units one by one, and the cutting needle passes through the guide rails.

[0048] A telescopic rod E is arranged at the bottom of the central column B, and an annular cutting blade is arranged along the circumference of the bottom of the telescopic rod E. When a plurality of cut petals are gathered together, the notch at the top matches the annular cutting blade, and the telescopic rod E moves down, and the annular cutting blade cuts the top of the pomelo, so as to facilitate the cutting of the petals to separate the pomelo peel and the pomelo pulp. After cutting, the telescopic rod E moves up and retracts into the inside of the central column B, while the cut part of the top of the pomelo peel remains at the top of the pomelo.

[0049] The guide rail section is two symmetrical inverted right triangles, and the cutting needle is close to the right angle side of the inverted right triangle, so that the adjacent pulp segments can be squeezed and pushed apart along the cutting edge of the cutting needle.

[0050] The connecting rod unit includes connecting rod A, connecting rod B and connecting rod C. One end of connecting rod A is hinged to the side wall of the central column B, and the other end thereof is connected to one end of connecting rod B. The other end of connecting rod B is connected to the cutting needle. A plurality of equally spaced sliding grooves are arranged on the side wall of the central column A. A slider B and a compression spring are arranged in the sliding groove. Slider B can only move up and down along the sliding groove, and the compression spring is located between slider B and the bottom wall of the sliding groove. One end of connecting rod C is connected to slider B, and the other end thereof is hinged to the rod body of connecting rod B.

[0051] In the initial state, the slider B is located at the top of the slide slot, the connecting rod A and the connecting rod B gather together, and all the cutting needles gather together. When the peel is separated, the telescopic rod C is pushed to move the cutting and separation assembly to the top of the pulp, and the cutting head pierces into the pulp, and then the telescopic rod D and the telescopic rod C are started, and the telescopic rod D moves back and forth. At the beginning of the design, the reciprocating frequency of the telescopic rod D is debugged, and the telescopic rod D can be combined with the forward and reverse motor, the gear and the central telescopic rod, and the teeth are set on the central rod. The gear and the teeth are meshed, and the gear is connected to the forward and reverse motor through a reducer (this method belongs to the prior art and is not shown in the figure), and the forward and reverse motor, the reducer and the central telescopic rod are set inside the central column, and the central column B and the central rod are an integrated structure. The forward and reverse motor drives the cutting needle to move back and forth from the center to the edge to cut the pulp, and the cut pulp is squeezed and separated by the guide rail to obtain multiple pulp petals.

[0052] The telescopic rod C and the telescopic rod E can both be electric push rods or electric telescopic rods. In this embodiment, the telescopic rod C, the telescopic rod D and the telescopic rod E are all connected to the control end to control the coordinated work between the three.

[0053] The pulp segments are pushed onto the conveyor belt by a robot and transported to the next processing point.

[0054] The grapefruit automatic processing device designed in this application frees the hands of workers. The whole process only requires workers to place grapefruits on the grapefruit conveyor belt, and the grapefruit peeling and pulp cutting are automatically completed by the pulp cutting and separation mechanism, the grapefruit wrapping and peeling mechanism, and the peeling auxiliary mechanism.
