Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of scallop processing, and particularly relates to a scallop soft tissue shelling mechanism. Background Art

[0002] There is an important link in the scallop processing and production process, that is, first solve the problem of biological adhesion between the scallop soft tissue and the shell. After solving the scallop adhesion problem, due to the special structure of the scallop, the shell is tightly closed and the scallop soft tissue cannot be separated from the shell.

[0003] There are some equipment devices on the market that replace manual processing of scallops. Most of these equipment use high temperature to process fresh scallops, that is, pouring or soaking scallops with steam or high-temperature hot water to force the shells to open their mouths, and then separating the soft tissues of the shells from the shells through a sieve. In this process, because the scallops are affected by high temperatures, the scallops are almost completely cooked and completely lose the umami and appearance of the scallops. Furthermore, when the scallops are heated instantly, the scallop muscles are attached to the shells before they have time to shrink. The sieve cannot filter out the soft tissues of the scallops, and they are thrown away with the shells, causing great losses. This technology not only fails to retain the original quality of the scallops (the umami, taste, and color are greatly reduced), but also, due to technical reasons, causes a large number of scallops to be lost during the screening process, and the shelling rate is only about 65%. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a scallop soft tissue shelling mechanism to address the deficiencies in the prior art, which can retain the original quality of the scallops and reduce the loss of the scallops, and the shelling rate of the scallops is over 98%.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] The scallop soft tissue shelling mechanism comprises a guide rail, a shelling container, a transmission rod, an eccentric wheel and a driving mechanism. The shelling container is slidably arranged on the guide rail, the driving mechanism drives the eccentric wheel to rotate, the two ends of the transmission rod are respectively hinged to the shelling container and the eccentric wheel, and the eccentric wheel drives the shelling container to slide back and forth on the guide rail through the transmission rod.

[0025] Embodiment 1:

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1The scallop soft tissue shelling mechanism provided by the present invention comprises a guide rail 1, a shelling container 2, a transmission rod 3, an eccentric wheel 4 and a driving mechanism 5. The shelling container 2 is used to place scallops 6 inside. The shelling container 2 is slidably arranged on the guide rail 1. A slip ring 204 is arranged on the top of the shelling container 2. The slip ring 204 is sleeved on the guide rail 1 and slidably connected thereto. The slip ring 204 can be used to prevent the shelling container 2 from falling off during the sliding process, and the connection stability is higher. By controlling the shelling container 2 to slide back and forth on the guide rail 1, the scallops 6 in the shelling container 2 frequently collide with the inner wall of the container. According to the natural biological structure characteristics of the scallop 6, the scallop shell will automatically open after multiple collisions. In order to realize the function of reciprocating sliding, the driving mechanism 5 drives the eccentric wheel 4 to rotate, the driving mechanism 5 is a motor, the two ends of the transmission rod 3 are respectively hinged with the shelling container 2 and the eccentric wheel 4, the eccentric wheel 4 drives the shelling container 2 to slide reciprocatingly on the guide rail 1 through the transmission rod 3, and the high speed characteristic of the motor is used to drive the entire mechanism to move quickly, so as to achieve the purpose of frequent collision between the scallop 6 in the shelling container 2 and the inner wall of the container. Compared with the treatment process of heating fresh scallops at high temperature on the market, the present invention can retain the original quality of the scallop, the scallop's own fresh taste, taste, and color are well preserved, and the loss of scallops can be reduced, and the shelling rate of scallops is more than 98%. When the eccentric wheel 4 rotates, the transmission rod 3 hinged thereto makes a circular motion around the central axis of the eccentric wheel 4, thereby driving the other end of the transmission rod 3 to move. Since the shelling container 2 hinged at the other end of the transmission rod 3 is slidably set on the guide rail 1, the end of the transmission rod 3 hinged to the eccentric wheel 4 makes a circular motion, and the end hinged to the shelling container 2 makes a reciprocating linear motion.

[0027] Moreover, a plurality of sieve holes 201 are provided at the bottom of the shelling container 2, so that the soft tissue of the scallop after the shell is opened can slide down along the sieve holes 201 directly, while the hard scallop shell remains in the shelling container 2. In order to facilitate the smooth discharge of the scallop shell, the shelling container 2 is a horizontally arranged cylindrical structure, one end of the shelling container 2 is a scallop inlet 202, and the other end is a shell outlet 203. The height of the scallop inlet 202 on the shelling container 2 is higher than the height of the shell outlet 203. The scallop 6 enters the shelling container 2 from the scallop inlet 202, and during the collision process, the scallop 6 opens, and the soft tissue inside slides down along the sieve holes 201 directly, and the scallop shell moves from a high position to a low shell outlet 203 during the shaking process, and finally the shell flows out from the shell outlet 203 along the length direction of the shelling container 2. In this process, not only the scallop soft tissue is forced to separate from the scallop shell, but also the two are separated along different paths in the container.

[0028] For better optimization, the cross-sectional shape of the shelling container 2 is circular, rectangular or polygonal. No matter what cross-sectional shape of the shelling container 2 is adopted, it is within the protection scope of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the shelling container 2 is preferably rectangular, and the two side walls are perpendicular to the bottom of the shelling container 2, so that the scallops are vertically in contact with the two side walls during the collision, allowing the scallops to withstand the vertical impact force. Compared with arc or polygonal shapes, the scallops are not easy to slip inside, and it is easier to use the frequent impact of the two side walls to open the scallop shells during the collision.

[0029] Working principle:

[0030] First, start the motor, and the motor drives the eccentric wheel 4 to rotate. Due to the eccentric effect, the eccentric wheel 4 drives the shelling container 2 to slide back and forth on the guide rail 1 through the transmission rod 3, and then the scallop 6 is put into the shelling container 2 from the scallop inlet 202. The high speed characteristic of the motor is used to drive the entire mechanism to move quickly, so as to achieve the purpose of frequent collision between the scallop 6 in the shelling container 2 and the inner wall of the container. Finally, the scallop 6 opens during the collision, and the internal soft tissue slides directly along the sieve hole 201. The scallop shell moves from a high place to a low shell outlet 203 during the shaking process, and finally the shell flows out from the shell outlet 203 along the length direction of the shelling container 2.

[0031] Embodiment 2:

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that three shelling containers 2 are arranged in parallel, which can accommodate three groups of scallops for processing at the same time, thereby improving processing efficiency.

[0033] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
