Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of corn processing, in particular to a fresh corn processing production line. Background Art

[0002] A fresh corn processing line is a set of machinery and equipment specifically designed to process freshly picked corn into various products, such as quick-frozen corn and vacuum-packed corn. It typically consists of peeling, cleaning, drying, blanching, cooling, and other steps, along with the corresponding equipment. Cleaning plays a crucial role in the processing line, directly impacting the quality, safety, and market acceptance of the final product.

[0003] For the cleaning of fresh corn, Chinese patent publication number CN216220101U discloses a fresh corn spray cleaning machine. The cleaning machine uses support rollers, conveyor rollers, and spiral blades to continuously rotate the fresh corn while conveying it in a cleaning tank. The nozzle above the corn sprays water to clean the continuously rotating fresh corn, thereby improving the surface cleaning effect of the corn.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned cleaning machine only cleans the corn by spraying and flushing. The water sprayed from above is difficult to fully and effectively remove impurities on the surface of the corn. Simple spraying is difficult to clean the impurities in the gaps of the corn kernels, and it is also easy to flush impurity particles into the gaps. Therefore, the overall cleaning effect of the corn needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

The conveying mechanism drives the cleaning mechanism to move intermittently in a circular motion. While the conveying mechanism moves intermittently, the cleaning mechanism moves up and down. When the cleaning mechanism brushes the corn and moves to the cleaning mechanism, the cleaning mechanism pauses for a period of time. At this time, the cleaning steel brush can clean the cleaning brush to remove residual impurities on the surface of the cleaning brush, thereby preventing the cleaning brush from attaching impurities to subsequent corn again, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the corn.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more readily apparent, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth numerous specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways than those described below, and those skilled in the art may make similar modifications without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0032] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 A fresh corn processing production line includes a gantry 1, a conveying mechanism 2 and a cleaning mechanism 7 located below the conveying mechanism 2 are installed on the inner side of the gantry 1, a plurality of cleaning mechanisms 3 are evenly installed around the conveying mechanism 2, and a spraying area 5 and an adsorption drying area 6 are sequentially arranged on the gantry 1 from left to right.

[0033] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame 31 symmetrically mounted on the conveying mechanism 2 in the front and rear directions. Two parallel conveying rollers 32 are rotatably mounted between the front and rear mounting frames 31. Two cleaning brushes 33 symmetrically mounted on the front and rear mounting frames 31 and located above the corresponding conveying rollers 32 are fixedly connected between the front and rear mounting frames 31. A spray pipe 34 is mounted on one of the cleaning brushes 33. A forward and backward moving component 35 for pushing the corn forward and backward is also installed between the front and rear mounting frames 31.

[0034] The corn is supported by setting two parallel conveying rollers 32. The corn is parallel to the axis of the conveying roller 32. Multiple corns can be placed between the two conveying rollers 32 to improve the efficiency of corn transportation. The two conveying rollers 32 can drive the corn to rotate 360° during the same direction rotation, which is convenient for comprehensive cleaning of the corn.

[0035] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 A driving mechanism 4 for driving the conveying roller 32 to rotate is installed on the inner wall of the vertical section on the front side of the gantry 1.

[0036] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 9 The cleaning mechanism 7 includes a cleaning pool 71 that is installed between the two vertical sections of the gantry 1 for sliding up and down. The gantry 1 is equipped with a lifting assembly 72 that drives the cleaning mechanism 7 to move up and down. A cleaning steel brush 73 is installed in the interior of the cleaning pool 71 for rotation. A rotating motor 75 that drives the cleaning steel brush 73 to rotate is installed on the front side of the cleaning pool 71.

[0037] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7 A driving motor 8 for driving the conveying mechanism 2, the driving mechanism 4 and the lifting assembly 72 is installed on the front side of the gantry 1.

[0038] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 The outside of the conveying roller 32 is provided with several chutes 321 distributed evenly in front and back, and the side of the spray pipe 34 close to the center of the corresponding mounting frame 31 is provided with several groups of spray heads distributed evenly in front and back. There are two spray heads in the same group and they are distributed up and down. The upper spray head is set horizontally, and the lower spray head is tilted downward and aligned with the chute 321.

[0039] When the conveying roller 32 drives the corn to rotate 360 ​​degrees, water is sprayed onto the surface of the corn through the upper spray head to wash away the impurities on the surface of the corn that are easy to clean. Then the cleaning brushes 33 on the left and right sides brush the corn, and the impurities in the gaps of the corn kernels are brushed out by the cleaning brushes 33. After the corn is brushed by the cleaning brush 33 on the left, it can be brushed a second time by the cleaning brush 33 on the right after rotating half a circle, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the corn. The washed impurities are discharged downward from the chute 321, and the lower spray head sprays water outward in a trumpet shape, which can flush the chute 321 to discharge the impurities inside it downward, thereby avoiding impurities remaining on the conveying roller 32.

[0040] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4The front-to-back moving assembly 35 includes a movable rod 351 slidably installed between the corresponding two mounting frames 31. The top of the movable rod 351 is fixedly connected to a number of push rods 352 equidistantly distributed front and back. The push rods 352 are located between the left and right conveying rollers 32. The rear end of the movable rod 351 passes through the rear of the rear mounting frame 31 and is fixedly connected to a baffle 353. One of the conveying rollers 32 is coaxially fixedly connected to a swash plate 354 located behind the rear mounting frame 31. The front end of the swash plate 354 abuts against the front side of the baffle 353. The front end of the movable rod 351 passes through the front of the front mounting frame 31 and is fixedly connected to a return spring 355 between the front mounting frame 31. The return spring 355 is sleeved on the movable rod 351.

[0041] In the initial state, the corn is placed between two adjacent push rods 352. When the conveyor roller 32 drives the corn to rotate, the swash plate 354 rotates coaxially with the conveyor roller 32, and the rear end of the swash plate 354 tilts away from the other conveyor roller 32 (such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the swash plate 354 can reciprocate and push the blocking piece 353 and the movable rod 351 to move backward during the rotation process. When the blocking piece 353 moves backward, the return spring 355 will be compressed, and the movable rod 351 will drive the push rod 352 to move backward, so that the push rod 352 pushes the corn to move backward. When the swash plate 354 no longer pushes the blocking piece 353 and the movable rod 351 to move backward, the rebound force of the return spring 355 is used to push the movable rod 351 forward, so that the push rod 352 drives the corn to move forward. By driving the corn to move forward and backward, the brushing direction of the cleaning brush 33 on the corn is increased, and the brushing effect of the cleaning brush 33 on the corn is improved.

[0042] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7 The conveying mechanism 2 includes a center rod 21 rotatably installed between the two vertical sections of the gantry 1 and symmetrically distributed on the left and right. Sprockets 22 symmetrically distributed frontally and rearward are coaxially fixedly connected to the center rod 21. A chain 23 is transmission-connected between the two sprockets 22 opposite to each other on the left and right. The mounting frame 31 is fixedly installed on the corresponding chain 23. The output shaft of the drive motor 8 is transmission-connected to the center rod 21 on the left through a grooved wheel mechanism.

[0043] The driving motor 8 drives the center rod 21 and the sprocket 22 on the left to rotate intermittently clockwise through the grooved wheel mechanism, and then the sprocket 22 drives the chain 23 to move intermittently in a circular motion, and the chain 23 drives the upper mounting frame 31 to move intermittently to the right, thereby intermittently transporting the corn to the right. The distance the corn moves to the right each time is equal to the distance between the two adjacent cleaning mechanisms 3.

[0044] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 The driving mechanism 4 includes a driving ring 41 which is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the vertical section on the front side of the gantry 1 and is symmetrical on the left and right. The driving ring 41 coincides with the axis of the corresponding center rod 21 and is located outside the center rod 21. A toothed belt 42 is connected between the left and right driving rings 41. The front end of the conveying roller 32 is coaxially fixedly connected to a gear 43 located in front of the front mounting frame 31. The gear 43 is meshed with the toothed belt 42. A support plate 12 for supporting the upper toothed belt 42 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vertical section on the front side of the gantry 1. The output shaft of the driving motor 8 is connected to the driving ring 41 on the left through a gear and ring mechanism.

[0045] The driving motor 8 drives the driving ring 41 on the left to rotate counterclockwise through the gear ring mechanism, and then the driving ring 41 drives the toothed belt 42 to rotate counterclockwise, and then the toothed belt 42 drives the gear 1 43 and the conveying roller 32 to rotate continuously. When the mounting frame 31 stops intermittently, the conveying roller 32 still keeps rotating, and the rotating conveying roller 32 drives the corn to rotate 360°. The support plate 12 can support the upper toothed belt 42 to prevent the upper toothed belt 42 from being concave, so that the toothed belt 42 is fully engaged with the gear 1 43.

[0046] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The spraying area 5 includes a spray plate 51 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the horizontal section of the gantry 1 and located above the cleaning mechanism 3. A water receiving pool 52 located on the inner side of the chain 23 is fixedly mounted between the two vertical sections of the gantry 1. The water receiving pool 52 is located directly below the spray plate 51 and its right end is tilted downward. A filter screen 53 is detachably mounted inside the water receiving pool 52. A drain pipe 54 located below the filter screen 53 is fixedly connected to the right side of the water receiving pool 52. The drain pipe 54 is connected to the interior of the water receiving pool 52. Windows 11 are provided on both vertical sections of the gantry 1. It should be noted that the spray plate 51 is connected to the external water supply system through a pipeline, and water is supplied to the spray plate 51 through the external water supply system. The drain pipe 54 is connected to the external drainage system, and the sewage generated by cleaning is discharged through the drainage system.

[0047] Clean water is sprayed downwards through the spray plate 51 to rinse the corn passing below, and the cleaning brushes 33 on the left and right sides are used to brush the corn to fully remove impurities on the surface of the corn. The washed impurities fall into the water receiving pool 52 with the water flow, and the filter plate 53 can filter the impurities. The sewage is discharged to the external drainage system through the drain pipe 54 and can be subsequently processed and recycled; the window 11 can facilitate the cleaning of impurities on the filter plate 53. When a large amount of impurities are filtered on the filter plate 53, the filter plate 53 can be removed from the window 11 to clean the impurities.

[0048] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8 A water supply assembly 36 for supplying water to the spray pipe 34 is installed on the gantry 1. The water supply assembly 36 includes an annular water supply frame 361 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the vertical section on the front side of the gantry 1. A movable ring belt 362 is rotatably connected to the outer ring wall of the annular water supply frame 361. The movable ring belt 362 and the annular water supply frame 361 are sealed. A water supply trough 363 is provided on a section of the annular water supply frame 361 corresponding to the water receiving pool 52. A water supply pipe 364 is fixedly connected between the spray pipe 34 and the movable ring belt 362. The water supply pipe 364 runs through the inner side of the movable ring belt 362. The bottom of the water supply trough 363 is connected to a water inlet pipe. It should be noted that the water inlet pipe is connected to the external water supply system. The external water supply system transports clean water to the water supply trough 363 through the water inlet pipe.

[0049] Clean water is transported to the water supply trough 363 through the water inlet pipe. When the chain 23 drives the mounting frame 31 to move to the right, the spray pipe 34 drives the movable ring belt 362 to circulate along the annular water supply frame 361 through the water supply pipe 364. When the water supply pipe 364 moves to the top of the water supply trough 363, the water supply pipe 364 is connected to the water supply trough 363, the mounting frame 31 stops intermittently, and the conveying roller 32 still drives the corn to rotate 360°. The water supply trough 363 transports the clean water to the corresponding water supply pipe 364, and then the water supply pipe 364 transports the clean water to the spray pipe 34. Finally, the spray head on the right side of the spray pipe 34 sprays clean water to rinse the corn and the conveying roller 32; when the spray pipe 34 leaves the spray area 5, the water supply pipe 364 is just moved away from the top of the water supply trough 363. At this time, the spray head on the spray pipe 34 no longer sprays water, which is convenient for subsequent drying of the corn.

[0050] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 The adsorption drying zone 6 includes several negative pressure adsorption heads 61 equidistantly mounted on the bottom of the horizontal section of the gantry 1 and located to the right of the spray plate 51. The negative pressure adsorption heads 61 are located above the cleaning mechanism 3. Hot air blowers 62 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal section of the gantry 1, symmetrically distributed on both sides of the negative pressure adsorption heads 61. It should be noted that the tops of the negative pressure adsorption heads 61 are connected to the external negative pressure adsorption system via pipes, which provides negative pressure suction for the negative pressure adsorption heads 61.

[0051] When the cleaning mechanism 3 drives the corn to move to the adsorption drying area 6, the mounting frame 31 stops intermittently, and the conveying roller 32 still drives the corn to rotate 360 ​​degrees. The negative pressure adsorption head 61 can perform negative pressure suction on the surface of the corn. The negative pressure adsorption head 61 can absorb water droplets and residual impurities on the surface of the corn, thereby improving the drying and cleaning effect of the corn. At the same time, the hot air blower 62 blows hot air to the surface of the corn to dry the corn. The corn rotates continuously during the drying process, so that the corn can be dried comprehensively.

[0052] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 9 The lifting assembly 72 includes a main shaft 721 rotatably mounted between the two vertical sections of the gantry 1, and a front-to-back symmetrical crank 722 is fixedly mounted on the main shaft 721. The crank 722 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 723, and the end of the connecting rod 723 away from the crank 722 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the cleaning pool 71. The output shaft of the drive motor 8 is connected to the main shaft 721 through a pulley assembly.

[0053] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 9 The cleaning steel brush 73 is located between the corresponding two cleaning brushes 33. When the conveying mechanism 2 pauses, one cleaning mechanism 3 stays just above the cleaning pool 71. At this time, the brush nails on the surface of the cleaning steel brush 73 in the cleaning mechanism 3 extend into the bristles of the cleaning brush 33. A number of debris removal nails 74 equidistantly distributed front and back are fixedly connected to the inner wall on the left side of the cleaning pool 71. The debris removal nails 74 and the brush nails on the surface of the cleaning steel brush 73 are staggered front and back. The output shaft of the rotating motor 75 is coaxially fixedly connected to the cleaning steel brush 73.

[0054] In the initial state, the cleaning pool 71 is at the bottom, and the cleaning mechanism 3 under the chain 23 can intermittently move to the left above the cleaning pool 71. When the conveying mechanism 2 pauses, a cleaning mechanism 3 just stops directly above the cleaning pool 71, and the driving motor 8 drives the main shaft 721 and the connecting rod 723 to rotate through the belt, and then the connecting rod 723 pushes the cleaning pool 71 to move upward, so that the cleaning steel brush 73 moves to between the corresponding two cleaning brushes 33, and the cleaning steel brush 73 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 75. The cleaning steel brush 73 is used to clean the bristles on the cleaning brush 33, and then the cleaning steel brush 73 is cleaned by the de-dusting nail 74, which can prevent residual impurities on the cleaning brush 33 from re-attaching to subsequent corn.

[0055] See also Figures 1-9During specific use, step 1, the driving motor 8 drives the center rod 21 and the sprocket 22 to rotate intermittently clockwise through the grooved wheel mechanism, and then the sprocket 22 drives the chain 23 to move intermittently in a circular motion, and the chain 23 drives the mounting frame 31 to move intermittently in a circular motion to the right, and then the corn to be cleaned is placed from the left side of the gantry 1 onto the corresponding two conveying rollers 32, and the corn is located between the two adjacent push rods 352.

[0056] Step 2: The driving motor 8 drives the driving ring 41 on the left to rotate counterclockwise through the gear ring mechanism, and then the driving ring 41 drives the toothed belt 42 to rotate counterclockwise, and then the toothed belt 42 drives the gear 1 43 and the conveying roller 32 to rotate continuously. The rotating conveying roller 32 drives the corn to rotate 360°. During the rotation of the corn, the cleaning brush 33 is used to brush the corn to remove impurities and residual corn silk in the gaps of the corn.

[0057] Step 3. When the conveyor roller 32 drives the corn to rotate, the swash plate 354 will rotate coaxially with the conveyor roller 32. During the rotation, the swash plate 354 can reciprocate and push the blocking piece 353 and the movable rod 351 to move backward. At this time, the return spring 355 will be compressed. When the movable rod 351 no longer drives the push rod 352 to move backward, the rebound force of the return spring 355 is used to push the movable rod 351 forward, so that the push rod 352 drives the corn forward. By driving the corn to move forward and backward, the cleaning effect of the cleaning brush 33 on the corn is improved.

[0058] Step 4: Spray clean water downwards through the spray plate 51 to rinse the corn passing below, clean the impurities on the surface of the corn, and at the same time, deliver clean water to the water supply trough 363 through the water inlet pipe. When the chain 23 drives the mounting frame 31 to move to the right, the spray pipe 34 drives the movable ring belt 362 to circulate along the annular water supply frame 361 through the water supply pipe 364. When the water supply pipe 364 moves to the top of the water supply trough 363, the water supply pipe 364 is connected to the water supply trough 363, and the mounting frame 31 is moved to the right. The mounting rack 31 stops intermittently, and the conveying roller 32 still drives the corn to rotate 360 ​​degrees. The water supply trough 363 conveys clean water to the water supply pipe 364, and then the water supply pipe 364 conveys the clean water to the spray pipe 34. Finally, the spray head on the right side of the spray pipe 34 sprays clean water to rinse the corn and the conveying roller 32. The impurities washed down fall into the water receiving pool 52 with the water flow. The filter plate 53 can filter the impurities, and the sewage is discharged to the external drainage system through the drain pipe 54.

[0059] Step 5. When the cleaning mechanism 3 moves the corn to the right side of the spray plate 51, the corresponding water supply pipe 364 moves to the right side of the water supply trough 363 at the same time. At this time, the spray head on the spray pipe 34 no longer sprays water. When the corn moves to the bottom of the negative pressure adsorption head 61, the mounting frame 31 stops intermittently, and the conveying roller 32 still drives the corn to rotate 360°. The negative pressure adsorption head 61 can perform negative pressure suction on the surface of the corn, absorb water droplets and possible residual impurities on the surface of the corn, and improve the drying and cleaning effect of the corn. At the same time, the hot air blower 62 blows hot air to the surface of the corn to dry the corn. The corn rotates continuously during the drying process, so that the corn can be dried comprehensively.

[0060] Step 6. The dried corn is transported to the right side of the gantry 1 by the conveying mechanism 2. When the conveying mechanism 2 on the right drives the cleaning mechanism 3 to move downward, the fresh corn automatically falls into the existing collection box. Then the conveying mechanism 2 below drives the cleaning mechanism 3 to move to the left. When the cleaning mechanism 3 pauses just above the cleaning pool 71, the driving motor 8 drives the main shaft 721 and the connecting rod 723 to rotate through the belt, and then the connecting rod 723 pushes the cleaning pool 71 to move upward, so that the cleaning brush 73 moves to between the corresponding two cleaning brushes 33, and the cleaning brush 73 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 75. The bristles on the cleaning brush 33 are cleaned by the cleaning brush 73, and then the cleaning brush 73 is cleaned by the impurity removing nail 74, which can prevent the residual impurities on the cleaning brush 33 from re-attaching to the subsequent corn.
