Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bayberry pitting, and particularly relates to a bayberry cleaning and pitting integrated machine. Background Art

[0002] The all-in-one bayberry cleaning and pitting machine is primarily used for the industrialized, automated cleaning and pitting of fresh bayberries. It quickly removes impurities such as mud, pesticide residues, and microorganisms from the bayberry surface, while precisely removing the pits to ensure the integrity of the fruit. Suitable for bayberry processing companies, food processing plants, and central kitchens, it provides high-quality pre-processed raw materials for further processed products such as bayberry juice, canned bayberries, dried bayberries, and quick-frozen bayberries. It can also be used in fresh fruit and vegetable pre-processing centers to meet market demand for clean, pitted fresh bayberries, effectively improving bayberry processing efficiency and product quality while reducing labor costs and raw material loss.

[0003] At present, there are a variety of bayberry cleaning and core removal equipment on the market, but these equipment generally have some shortcomings. Taking spray cleaning equipment as an example, when high-pressure water flow flushes the stains on the surface of bayberry, it is very easy to break through the thin and delicate skin of the bayberry, exposing the flesh. This not only reduces the appearance quality of the bayberry, but also creates conditions for the invasion of microorganisms, greatly shortening the shelf life of the bayberry. Moreover, this type of cleaning equipment is often difficult to completely remove insect eggs, dust and pesticide residues hidden in the gaps and depressions of the bayberry. Its cleaning principle is mostly based on simple water flow impact or stirring. For bayberry with complex surface structure, it is impossible to achieve all-round and deep cleaning, which seriously affects the hygiene standards of subsequent processed bayberry products.

[0004] When it comes to pitting, common pitting equipment also presents numerous problems. Due to the varying sizes and shapes of bayberry fruits, it's difficult to precisely align the pit during the punching process. This results in a significant amount of pulp being removed during pitting, resulting in significant waste of raw materials. While some pitting equipment that uses mechanical extrusion can somewhat prevent excessive pulp loss, it can easily break the pit. Crushed pit fragments can then be mixed into the pulp, affecting the product's taste and potentially posing a health risk to consumers. Summary of the Invention

[0036] When the water in the washing machine is in a state of being washed, the water in the washing machine 5 is discharged from the washing machine 4. When the waxberry is cleaned in the cleaning section 17, the multiple nozzles 21 on the water spray pipe 19 rotate and spray high-pressure water from different angles to form a cross coverage, and the waxberry is washed in all directions.

[0037] Example 2, refer to Figure 1-12 The de-coring mechanism includes a gantry 27 arranged on the outer wall of the de-coring section 26, and multiple electric telescopic rods 33 are fixedly connected to both sides of the gantry 27. The ends of the multiple electric telescopic rods 33 are commonly fixedly connected to a base plate 39, and multiple outer frames 43 are provided on the base plate 39. The interiors of the multiple outer frames 43 are each provided with an air bag 45. An air pump 42 is provided on the base plate 39, and an air supply pipe 44 is connected to the air pump 42.

[0041] When the waxberries have been rinsed in the cleaning section 17, they will be transported by the conveyor belt 24 and enter the inclined plate 25. After the waxberries have been transported by the inclined plate 25, they will be divided into multiple single rows by the divider at the end of the inclined plate 25 and enter the conveyor belt 37 at a certain interval. Then, they will enter the placement holes 38 one by one. When the waxberries in the placement holes 38 are transported by the conveyor belt 37 to the bottom of the base plate 39, the positioning sensor on the conveyor belt 37 will be activated to stop the conveyor belt 37. When the conveyor belt 37 stops conveying, the multiple electric telescopic rods 33 will extend and push the base plate 39 down until the outer frame 43 frames the waxberries in the conveyor belt 37. At this time, the air pump 42 will start to inflate the air bag 45 through the air pipe 44, so that the air bag 45 can clamp the waxberries (it should be noted that a pressure sensor is provided inside the air bag 45, and the pressure sensor monitors the pressure in the air bag 45 in real time to ensure that the clamping force is uniform and moderate). ). When the airbag 45 is inflated to clamp the bayberry, the electric telescopic rod 32 will extend, pushing the suction box 40 down until the silicone suction head 3 covers the surface of the bayberry. The negative pressure pump 41 will open to generate negative pressure, and the bayberry core will be completely sucked out from the flesh through the suction tube 16. When the fruit core is adsorbed on the suction tube 16, the transmission motor 28 will drive the threaded rod 29 to rotate. When the threaded rod 29 rotates, the entire driving part 30 will move to the upper side of the separation filter plate 34. At this time, the negative pressure pump 41 will be closed. Without the adsorption of negative pressure, the fruit cores adsorbed on the suction pipe 16 will fall onto the separation filter plate 34 and be screened by the separation filter plate 34. At this time, the smaller fruit cores will be screened by the separation filter plate 34 and fall into the storage box 36, while the pitted bayberries will be transported by the conveyor belt 37 and fall onto the separation filter plate 34. After being screened by the separation filter plate 34, they will remain on the surface of the separation filter plate 34 and finally roll into the storage box 35 to be collected by the storage box 35.

[0042] It should be noted that the spray cleaning and core removal in the pre-cleaning area 1, the cleaning section 17 and the core removal section 26 are all controlled by a control system. The control system is based on PLC, which accurately controls the operation of the entire all-in-one machine according to preset programs and real-time data fed back by sensors (this is existing technology and will not be elaborated on in detail).
