[0059] Example 1

[0060] This embodiment provides a yam automatic peeling device, such as Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, it includes a shell IV, and columns are arranged at the four corners of the shell IV, which support the shell IV. A first multi-jaw chuck and a supporting mechanism that are relatively coaxially arranged are arranged inside the shell IV. The first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism together constitute a clamping mechanism I for the yam. The first multi-jaw chuck is used to cooperate with one end of the yam, and the supporting mechanism is used to cooperate with the other end of the yam. The first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism are connected to a rotating drive mechanism III, and the rotating drive mechanism III can drive the first multi-jaw chuck to rotate around the axis of the supporting mechanism itself, thereby driving the yam to rotate. A cutting mechanism II is arranged above the area between the first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism. The cutting mechanism includes a moving mechanism, which is connected to multiple groups of tool assemblies and can drive the tool assemblies to move along the axis direction of the first multi-jaw chuck. The tool assembly is used to contact the yam and peel the yam in a rotating state.

[0061] A first jaw driving mechanism is also provided on one side of the first multi-jaw chuck, and the first jaw driving mechanism can drive multiple jaws of the first multi-jaw chuck to move, thereby realizing the switching between the clamping and loosening states of the yam.

[0062] The first multi-jaw chuck adopts the existing hollow three-jaw chuck I-3, including an annular chuck and three jaws I-4 located on the chuck. The three jaws can move radially along the chuck. The hollow three-jaw chuck I-3 can adopt the existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0063] like Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, a first claw driving mechanism is provided on one side of the first multi-claw chuck, and the first claw driving mechanism includes a telescopic component. In this embodiment, the telescopic component adopts an existing electric telescopic rod I-1, and the fixed part of the electric telescopic rod I-1 is fixed to the housing IV by bolts, and the end of the telescopic part is rotatably connected to a telescopic shaft, as shown in FIG. Fig.14 As shown, the telescopic shaft is integrally fixedly connected with a first bevel gear I-2, and the telescopic shaft matches the claw operating hole on the hollow three-jaw chuck I-3.

[0064] A claw motion driving component is provided on one side of the area between the first multi-claw chuck and the electric telescopic rod I-1. The claw motion driving component adopts a claw motion driving motor I-5. The claw motion driving motor I-5 is fixed on the second motor fixing plate IV-6. The second motor fixing plate IV-6 is fixedly connected to the outer shell IV. The output shaft of the claw motion driving motor I-5 is connected to the second bevel gear I-6. The second bevel gear I-6 matches the first bevel gear I-2 and can engage for transmission.

[0065] The electric telescopic rod I-1 drives the telescopic shaft to extend, and the telescopic shaft is inserted into the claw operation hole of the hollow three-jaw chuck I-3. At the same time, the first bevel gear I-2 and the second bevel gear I-6 are meshed, and the claw movement drive motor I-5 works, and the telescopic shaft rotates under the meshing action of the first bevel gear I-2 and the second bevel gear I-6. Since the hollow three-jaw chuck I-3 contains a bevel gear connected to the claw operation hole and a plane thread structure meshed with the bevel gear, the telescopic shaft will drive the bevel gear to rotate when it rotates, and then the rotation of the plane thread under the meshing action will push the three claws to move toward the center along the spiral direction of the thread. The above-mentioned telescopic shaft drives the three claws I-4 through the bevel gear and the plane thread structure. The movement mode and corresponding structure can adopt the existing technology, and its further technical details are not described in detail here.

[0066] As the jaws 1-4 approach the center, they will clamp the yam clamped between them, thereby driving the three jaws 1-4 of the hollow three-jaw chuck 1-3 to move radially along the hollow three-jaw chuck 1-3.

[0067] The electric telescopic rod I-1 is connected to a clamping controller I-9 located on one side thereof, and its operation is controlled by the clamping controller I-9.

[0068] In this embodiment, the supporting mechanism adopts a second multi-jaw chuck. Preferably, the second multi-jaw chuck adopts a hollow three-jaw chuck, which is used to clamp and fix the end of the yam. A second jaw motion driving mechanism is provided on one side of the second multi-jaw chuck. The structure of the second jaw motion driving mechanism is the same as that of the first jaw motion driving mechanism, and will not be repeated here.

[0069] Further, such as Figure 9-13 As shown, in the first multi-jaw chuck, at least one jaw is provided with a cutting knife I-7 on the inner side, and the cutting knife I-7 is located at the part where the jaw I-4 extends into the chuck, and is used to cut off the excess length of the yam. Preferably, only one jaw is provided with a cutting knife I-7.

[0070] Furthermore, in the first multi-jaw chuck, a clamping force detection element is provided on the inner side of at least one clamping jaw, which is used to detect the clamping force of the clamping jaw on the yam to avoid damage to the yam caused by excessive clamping force.

[0071] Preferably, the clamping force detection element uses a strain gauge I-8, and the strain gauge I-8 is connected to the clamping controller I-9, and can transmit the collected information to the clamping controller I-9.

[0072] A moving mechanism is provided above the area between the first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism. The moving mechanism can output movement along the axis direction of the first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism. The moving mechanism is connected to the tool assembly and can drive the tool assembly to move along the axis direction of the first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism. The tool assembly is used to contact the yam and peel the yam.

[0073] In this embodiment, Figure 15-16 As shown, the moving mechanism adopts a screw transmission mechanism arranged along the axis direction of the first multi-jaw chuck and the supporting mechanism, including a static guide rail II-4, the static guide rail II-4 serves as a fixed part of the moving mechanism, the static guide rail II-4 is fixedly connected to the housing IV, and the two ends of the static guide rail II-4 are provided with screw supports, which are the first screw support II-6 and the second screw support II-12 respectively, the screw II-5 is rotatably connected to the two screw supports, one end of the screw II-5 is connected to the moving drive motor II-1 through a coupling II-13, and the moving drive motor II-1 is fixed on the motor mounting. On plate II-14, the motor mounting plate II-14 is fixed at one end of the static guide rail II-4, the mobile drive motor II-1 is connected to the cutting controller II-15 fixed at one end of the static guide rail II-4, and its operation is controlled by the cutting controller II-15. The lead screw II-5 is connected to the moving box II-10, and the top of the moving box II-10 is slidingly connected to the static guide rail II-4 through the slider II-3. The slider II-3 and the moving box II-10 are detachably connected by bolts. The rotation of the lead screw II-5 can drive the moving box II-10 to move along the axial direction of the lead screw II-5.

[0074] The bottom of the mobile box II-10 is provided with a plurality of sets of tool assemblies. Figure 17-Figure 19 As shown, two sets of tool assemblies are provided at the bottom of the mobile box II-10, and each set of tool assemblies includes two relatively arranged tool holders II-9, and the two tool holders II-9 are symmetrically arranged relative to the vertical plane where the axis of the screw II-5 is located, and the tool holder II-9 is fixed at the bottom of the mobile box II-10. There are four tool holders II-9 in total in the two sets of tools, and the four tool holders II-9 are distributed in a rectangular array. The inner side surfaces of the two tool holders II-9 facing each other are elastically connected with tool II-7, and tool II-7 is used to contact with the yam to peel the yam.

[0075] In this embodiment, springs II-8 are provided at both ends of the tool II-7. One end of the spring II-8 is connected to the tool II-7, and the other end is connected to the tool holder II-9. The elastic connection between the tool II-7 and the tool holder II-9 is realized through the spring II-8.

[0076] Furthermore, a long hole is provided at the bottom of the movable box II-10, and the long axis of the long hole is arranged perpendicular to the output movement direction of the movable mechanism. The tool holder II-9 is fixedly connected to the movable box II-10 through the long hole and fasteners. The fasteners can be existing bolts and nuts. Through the long hole, the tool II-7 can be adjusted in position perpendicular to the movement direction of the movable box II-10. Combined with the elastic connection of the tool II-7 to the tool holder II-9, the peeling requirements of yams of different diameters can be met.

[0077] At the same time, since the tool II-7 is connected to the tool holder II-9 through the spring II-8, the problem of uneven surface of the yam can be dealt with, and the processing quality is high.

[0078] Furthermore, the length of the knife II-7 is 5-10 cm, the width is 1-3 cm, and the knife II-7 is made of stainless steel. It is understandable that the knife can also be made of other materials to meet the peeling requirements.

[0079] Furthermore, a photoelectric rangefinder II-2 is provided at one end of one side of the static guide rail II-4, and the photoelectric rangefinder II-2 is fixed on a photoelectric rangefinder support, the photoelectric rangefinder support is fixed to the static guide rail II-4, and the photoelectric rangefinder support is also fixed to the outer shell IV. Correspondingly, the mobile box II-10 is provided with a sensor sheet II-11 matching the photoelectric rangefinder II-2, and the photoelectric rangefinder II-2 is used to detect the distance between the mobile box II-10 and the end of the static guide rail II-4. The photoelectric rangefinder II-2 is connected to the cutting controller II-15, and can transmit the detected information to the cutting controller II-15 to facilitate the control of the cutting.

[0080] The first multi-jaw chuck is connected to the rotation drive mechanism III, which can drive the first multi-jaw chuck to rotate. The supporting mechanism is the second multi-jaw chuck, which is also connected to the rotation drive mechanism III. The rotation drive mechanism III drives the first multi-jaw chuck and the second multi-jaw chuck to perform synchronous rotational motion.

[0081] like Figure 20-24 As shown, the rotation drive mechanism III includes a transmission shaft III-5, which is rotationally connected to the first transmission shaft bracket IV-3 and the second transmission shaft bracket IV-5 through a second bearing III-6, and the first transmission shaft bracket IV-3 and the second transmission shaft bracket IV-5 are fixed on the housing IV, as shown Fig.26As shown, the second transmission shaft bracket IV-5 adopts a double-hole plate, one hole of which is used to pass the transmission shaft III-5, and the other hole is used to pass the rotating drive motor III-8. A rotating drive member is provided on one side of the transmission shaft III-5, and the rotating drive member adopts a rotating drive motor III-8. The rotating drive motor III-8 is fixed on the first motor fixing plate IV-4, and the first motor fixing plate IV-4 is fixedly connected to the outer casing IV.

[0082] The rotating drive motor III-8 is connected to the transmission shaft through the first transmission mechanism. Preferably, the first transmission mechanism adopts the first gear transmission mechanism III-9. Specifically, the output shaft of the rotating drive motor III-8 is connected to the first gear transmission mechanism III-9 through the second flat key III-11. The first gear transmission mechanism III-9 is meshed with the transmission shaft gear set on the transmission shaft III-5, thereby realizing the power transmission of the rotating drive motor III-8 to the transmission shaft III-5.

[0083] The two ends of the transmission shaft III-5 are respectively connected to the first multi-jaw chuck and the second multi-jaw chuck through the second transmission mechanism. The rotation of the transmission shaft III-5 can drive the first multi-jaw chuck and the second multi-jaw chuck to rotate synchronously through the second transmission mechanism.

[0084] In this embodiment, the second transmission mechanism adopts a second gear transmission mechanism, including a first gear III-1 connected to the end of the transmission shaft III-5 through a first flat key III-10, the first gear III-1 is meshed with the intermediate gear III-2, the intermediate gear III-2 is meshed with the second gear III-3, and the second gear III-3 is coaxially fixedly connected to the multi-jaw chuck.

[0086] The rotation drive motor III-8 works and can drive the transmission shaft III-5 to rotate through the first gear transmission mechanism. The two ends of the transmission shaft respectively drive the first multi-jaw chuck and the second multi-jaw chuck to rotate synchronously through the second gear transmission mechanism.

[0087] like Figure 25-27 As shown, the shell IV is provided with a first transmission shaft bracket IV-3 and a second transmission shaft bracket IV-5 for installing the transmission shaft, the shell IV is also provided with an intermediate gear shaft IV-2, a first hollow shaft IV-1 and a second hollow shaft IV-7, the shell is also provided with a first motor fixing plate IV-4 and a second motor fixing plate IV-6, which are used to fix the various devices in the shell IV.

[0088] A discharge port is arranged at the bottom of the shell IV. After the first multi-claw chuck and the second multi-claw chuck release the yam, the yam can fall from the discharge port under the action of its own gravity.

[0089] Embodiment 2:

[0090] This embodiment provides a working method of the automatic yam peeling device described in Embodiment 1:

[0091] Feed the yam from the feed port until it reaches the second multi-jaw chuck, and the clamping controller I-9 controls the operation of the first jaw telescopic mechanism and the second jaw telescopic mechanism, driving the first multi-jaw chuck and the second multi-jaw chuck to clamp the yam. At the same time, the jaws of the first multi-jaw chuck use the cutting knife I-7 to cut off the excess part of the yam. The cutting controller II-15 controls the rotation drive mechanism and the moving mechanism to operate, and the first multi-jaw chuck and the second multi-jaw chuck drive the yam to rotate, and the moving mechanism drives the tool assembly to reciprocate along the axis of the yam, and the yam is peeled by the tool. The tool assembly reciprocates along the axis of the yam, so that the yam is completely peeled.

[0092] After the yam is peeled, the moving mechanism stops working, the rotating drive mechanism stops working, the first claw drive mechanism and the second claw drive mechanism work, so that the first multi-claw chuck and the second multi-claw chuck release the yam, and the yam falls from the discharge port under the action of its own gravity.

[0093] In the automatic yam peeling device of the present embodiment, during the peeling process, the movement of the tool assembly and the rotation of the yam are both performed automatically without human intervention, which further improves the degree of automation of the yam peeling work, improves work efficiency, and reduces labor intensity. Moreover, during the yam peeling process, the yam only rotates and does not produce any movement along its axial direction, which greatly reduces the volume of the device and the space occupied.

[0094] Example 3

[0095] like Figure 28-Figure 31As shown, in this embodiment, the support mechanism adopts a turntable I-10, and accordingly, the corresponding claw motion drive mechanism and the corresponding second motor fixing plate IV-6 are no longer required, and the other structures are the same as those in Example 1. The circular surface of the turntable I-10 is provided with small cones distributed in a circular array, which are used to abut against the end of the yam. The turntable is connected to the rotation drive mechanism. Specifically, the turntable I-10 is also connected to the second gear, the second gear is meshed with the intermediate gear III-2, and is rotatably connected to the second hollow shaft IV-7 through the first bearing III-4. The second hollow shaft IV-7 is fixedly connected to the housing as a turntable shaft.

[0096] When in use, after the yam enters from the feed port, one end thereof is connected to the first multi-claw chuck, and the other end abuts against the turntable. The rest of the working method is the same as that of Example 2, and will not be repeated here.

[0097] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
