It includes a bottom plate 2-3, four swing rods 2-2, a screening transmission shaft 2-6, a crank 2-4, and a connecting rod 2-5. The bottom plate is located below the screen plate and is fixedly installed at the upper end of the secondary crushing chamber of the secondary crushing mechanism. The lower end of the screen plate has four upper hinge points arranged in a square pattern at its four corners, and the upper end of the bottom plate has four lower hinge points arranged in a square pattern at its four corners. The four lower hinge points are arranged opposite to the four upper hinge points and are connected by the four swing rods. Specifically, the upper end of each swing arm is hinged to the corresponding upper hinge point, and the lower end of each swing arm is hinged to the corresponding lower hinge point. The screening drive shaft is rotatably mounted on the top of the base plate via bearing seats at both ends. One end of the screening drive shaft is equipped with screening driven wheels 2-7, which are connected to the screening drive wheel fixed to the rear end of the cutter shaft of the primary crushing blade assembly via a screening drive belt, thereby realizing the input of screening power.

[0028] The secondary crushing chamber is a box-shaped cavity, fixedly mounted on the frame. A secondary feed inlet is located near the upper left side of the chamber, consisting of an upper conical feed section and a lower, right-sloping, cylindrical feed section, conveying the granular material output from the screening process into the secondary crushing chamber. The lower end of the secondary crushing chamber is tapered, serving as the discharge end. The upper part of the secondary feed inlet is positioned slightly to the left below the discharge end of the screen plate. The secondary discharge outlet connects to the discharge end of the secondary crushing chamber, enabling the output of qualified granular material.
[0029] The secondary crushing cutter assembly consists of two sets, which are supported horizontally and horizontally within the secondary crushing chamber. Each secondary crushing cutter assembly comprises a cutter shaft and multiple sets of blades evenly distributed and fixed to the upper end of the cutter shaft along the axial direction. The rear ends of the cutter shafts of the two sets of secondary crushing cutter assemblies (located outside the secondary crushing chamber) are connected by a pair of gears. The front end of the cutter shaft of one of the secondary crushing cutter assemblies (located outside the secondary crushing chamber) serves as the power input end, connected to the secondary drive motor through a secondary transmission mechanism.
[0030] In this invention, the secondary transmission mechanism adopts a belt transmission mechanism, including a secondary driving pulley, a secondary driven pulley, and a secondary transmission belt. The secondary driven pulley is installed at the front end of the corresponding cutter shaft, the secondary driving pulley is installed at the output end of the secondary drive motor, and the secondary transmission belt is connected between the secondary driving pulley and the secondary driven pulley.
[0031] The secondary screen is fixed below the two sets of secondary crushing blades inside the secondary crushing chamber, with the left end higher than the right. A waste outlet is located on the right side wall of the secondary crushing chamber, corresponding to the lower end of the secondary screen. Symmetrically extending curved plates 5-6 are fixed on both sides of the waste outlet. Vertical sliding grooves are positioned opposite each other at the right ends of the two curved plates. Adjustable baffle plates 5-8 are installed within these vertical sliding grooves to block the waste outlet and prevent waste from falling when the automatic waste recycling mechanism is not receiving waste. A bottom support plate is connected between the two extending curved plates, with its left end connecting to the right end of the secondary screen. Additionally, upper limit plates 5-7 are fixedly installed at the upper ends of the vertical sliding grooves on both sides to limit the upward movement of the baffle plates.
[0032] The automatic waste recycling mechanism includes a receiving hopper 3-4, a receiving hopper support 3-3, a lifting guide frame 3-1, and a lifting drive mechanism 3-2. The lifting guide frame consists of a base plate 3-1-1 and two identical guide rails 3-1-2 vertically fixed to the base plate. The base plate is fixedly connected to the extended support platform on the right side of the frame. The two guide rails are arranged parallel to each other, each consisting of a lower vertical guide rail section, an upper horizontal guide rail section, and an arc-shaped transition connecting section. The height of the upper horizontal guide rail section is higher than the screen plate. Guide grooves with the same shape as the guide rails are provided on opposite sides of the two guide rails. The receiving hopper support is a square frame support with a widened mounting plate at its upper end for fixing the receiving hopper. Extended upper arms 3-12 are provided at the upper ends of the front and rear side frames of the receiving hopper support. First rollers 3-11 are connected to both upper arms, and the two first rollers are slidably fitted into the guide grooves on the front and rear guide rails. The receiving hopper support has outwardly extending lower support arms 3-7 located near the lower end of its front and rear side frames. Each of the front and rear lower support arms is connected to a set of traveling wheels, which are movably positioned to guide the two guide grooves. In this invention, each set of traveling wheels consists of a second roller 3-9, a third roller 3-10, a roller mounting plate, and a connecting arm 3-8. The second and third rollers are rotatably mounted on the same side of the roller mounting plate via their respective axles and are slidably embedded into their corresponding guide grooves. The upper end of the connecting arm is rotatably connected to the inner end of the lower support arm via a pin, and the lower end of the connecting arm is rotatably connected to the roller mounting plate via a pin.
[0033] The receiving hopper is in the form of a scoop, and is fixed to the mounting plate at the upper end of the receiving hopper bracket with the opening side facing left.
[0034] The lifting drive mechanism is used to drive the receiving hopper support to move up and down, thereby driving the receiving hopper to move up and down. In this invention, the lifting drive mechanism includes a lifting drive motor 3-2-1, a lifting drive wheel, a lifting driven wheel, and a lifting transmission belt 3-2-2. The lifting drive motor is fixedly mounted on the base plate of the lifting guide frame. The lifting drive wheel is mounted on the output end of the lifting drive motor. The lifting driven wheel is positioned above the lifting drive wheel. The lifting driven wheel is mounted on the driven wheel bracket through a bearing seat. The driven wheel bracket is fixedly connected to the lower end of the upper horizontal guide rail section of one side guide rail. The lifting transmission belt is connected to the connecting arm of the nearby walking wheel assembly through a connecting plate 3-13, realizing the transmission of lifting power to the receiving hopper support and the receiving hopper, driving the receiving hopper to move up and down. When the first roller, the second roller, and the third roller are all located in the vertical guide groove, the receiving hopper is horizontally positioned. When the first roller moves to the horizontal guide groove, while the second roller and the third roller are both located in the vertical guide groove, the receiving hopper is horizontally positioned. The receiving hopper moves as a whole above the screen plate, and the receiving hopper flips over with the left side lower and the right side higher. In this way, under the action of weight, the granular material recovered in the receiving hopper is poured onto the screen plate, realizing the recovery and re-crushing of the material.
[0035] In the automatic waste recycling mechanism of this invention, to monitor the amount of waste in the receiving hopper, through-beam laser sensors 3-5 are installed on the front and rear side frames of the receiving hopper. If the amount of waste in the receiving hopper reaches a certain level, the waste will block the laser beam path, thereby driving the motor to lift the hopper and pour the waste into the vibrating screen for further processing.
[0036] The automatic waste recycling mechanism of this invention ensures that the baffle plate on the outside of the waste outlet opens promptly when the receiving hopper moves to the lower working position, and closes promptly after the receiving hopper moves upward away from the waste outlet. Two spring hinges 3-6 in opposite directions are installed at the front and rear of the receiving hopper's discharge end. During the hopper's ascent, one spring hinge pushes the baffle plate to the upper working position, simultaneously closing the waste outlet to prevent material waste. Conversely, when the hopper descends, the other spring hinge pushes the baffle plate down to the lower working position, opening the waste outlet for receiving.
[0037] Working principle of this high-efficiency walnut shell crusher: Walnut shells are fed into the primary crushing chamber through the primary inlet. The primary crushing mechanism crushes the walnut shells, and the particle size is controlled by a primary cylindrical screen. After primary crushing, the walnut shells fall onto the screen plate through the primary outlet. The screen plate reciprocates left and right, and the shells are evenly conveyed to the secondary inlet. The shells then enter the secondary crushing chamber through the secondary inlet. Under the action of the secondary crushing blades, the secondary crushing is completed. The material with the qualified particle size after secondary crushing is output from the secondary outlet at the bottom through the secondary crushing port, while the material that does not meet the qualified particle size is conveyed to the receiving hopper along the secondary screen. When the material in the receiving hopper reaches the set value, it is lifted by the lifting mechanism to the screen plate of the vibrating screening mechanism and poured onto the screen plate for recycling and re-crushing.
