Hawthorn processing pliers

Abstract

This invention relates to a hawthorn processing clamp, belonging to the technical field of fruit pitting devices. The clamp uses a pointed jaw 4 to remove the hawthorn stem by the root, or a pair of scissors 5 to cut the stem from its base; the curved clamp head 1 splits the hawthorn flesh; the pointed jaw 4 clamps and removes any remaining seeds, or a ring-shaped prying tool 9 removes the remaining seeds; and a punching pliers removes the navel. This easily completes the complete pitting, stem removal, and navel removal of the hawthorn.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a hawthorn processing clamp, belonging to the technical field of fruit pitting devices (A47J23 / 00). Background Technology

[0002] Hawthorn is a nutritious health food with digestive, spleen-strengthening, blood-activating, and lipid-lowering properties. To consume pure hawthorn pulp, the seeds, stem, and navel need to be removed. Currently, the main manual tool for processing hawthorn is a hawthorn seeding plier. This tool uses a pair of handles (3) to clamp a pair of curved pliers (1) and a hinge (2) between a pair of blades to cut off the hawthorn stem. Then, the curved pliers (1) are clamped laterally and cut into the middle of the hawthorn, clamping the five seeds inside at an arc-shaped angle. The hawthorn is then rotated, splitting the pulp into two halves and separating it from the seeds clamped by the curved pliers (1). This type of hawthorn seeding plier can quickly and conveniently remove the seeds from hawthorn. However, due to differences in hawthorn varieties, fruit and seed size and shape, and the varying skill levels of the operator, the process is not always feasible. Due to factors such as operational deviations and differences in seed growth status, sometimes seeds remain in the pulp after the fruit is cut open during the deseeding process. In such cases, a separate operation is required to remove the remaining seeds. Existing hawthorn deseeding pliers do not have a structure or device specifically for removing residual seeds. Instead, other tools must be used to remove the residual seeds, and then the hawthorn deseeding pliers must be switched back to continue operating on the next hawthorn, which is a cumbersome process. The pair of blades can cut off most of the fruit stem, but cannot remove the base and root of the fruit stem. Existing hawthorn deseeding pliers do not have the function of removing the fruit navel.

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hawthorn processing pliers that can cleanly, thoroughly, and perfectly remove seeds, fruit stalks, or seeds, fruit stalks, and fruit navels with the simplest operation.

[0004] A search revealed that there is currently no such hawthorn processing clamp. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] A hawthorn processing pliers includes a pair of arc-shaped plier heads 1, a hinge shaft 2 and a pair of plier handles 3. The hawthorn processing pliers have a pair of pointed jaws 4, the pair of pointed jaws 4 and a punching pliers, or the punching pliers, a scoop and a pair of shearing tips 5. The punching pliers include a punch 6 and a concave tray groove 8 with punched holes 7. The scoop is a flat scoop, a concave scoop or a ring scoop 9.

[0007] The pair of pointed jaws 4 are used to clamp the base of the hawthorn fruit stem and remove the stem by the root. The pair of pointed jaws 4 can also be used to clamp and remove the residual seeds. The punching pliers are used to remove the fruit navel. The paddle is used to remove the residual seeds remaining in the hawthorn pulp. The concave paddle or ring-shaped paddle 9 can better prevent the residual seeds from slipping.

[0008] The method of using the hawthorn processing pliers with the pair of pointed jaws 4 is as follows: Hold the hawthorn fruit with one hand and the hawthorn processing pliers with the other hand, use the pair of pointed jaws 4 to clamp the base of the hawthorn stem and pull the stem out by the root; then use the arc-shaped pliers head 1 to clamp the five hawthorn seeds horizontally, rotate the hawthorn fruit to separate the hawthorn seeds from the flesh on both sides, and the split flesh on both sides can clearly show the seed removal status. If the seed removal is successful, put the two hawthorn ...

[0009] The method of using the hawthorn processing pliers with the pair of pointed jaws 4 and the punching pliers is as follows: use the pair of pointed jaws 4 to clamp the root of the hawthorn fruit stem and pull the stem out by the root; then use the arc-shaped pliers head 1 to cut open the hawthorn fruit flesh. If any residual seeds are found, use the pair of pointed jaws 4 to clamp and remove the residual seeds; finally, place the fruit flesh with the navel side in the center of the concave tray 8 of the punching pliers, with the navel located above the punch 7, and use the punch head 6 to press the navel out of the punch 7 while holding the pliers handle 3 to remove the navel.

[0010] The method of using the hawthorn processing pliers with the aforementioned punching pliers, scoop, and a pair of shearing tips 5 is as follows: use the shearing tips 5 to cut off the hawthorn fruit stem from the root; then use the arc-shaped pliers head 1 to cut open the hawthorn fruit flesh. If any residual seeds are found, hold the fruit segment with one hand and use the scoop to remove the residual seeds with the other hand; finally, use the punching pliers to remove the fruit navel.

[0011] An improved hawthorn processing pliers, wherein the two opposing jaw surfaces of the pair of pointed jaws 4 each include a narrow front portion and a widened rear portion, and at least one of the jaw surfaces has a recess 10 or a perforation 11 in the widened portion; the punch 6 and the concave tray 8 with punched holes 7 are several sets of interchangeable punches 6 and concave tray 8 with punched holes 7 of different specifications; the hawthorn processing pliers also have a spring 12 and a locking buckle 13.

[0012] At least one recess 10 or perforation 11 is present on the widened portion of the two clamping surfaces to secure the pair of pointed jaws 4 in holding and removing the residual hawthorn seeds, preventing the residual hawthorn seeds from slipping out; the replaceable punch 6 and the concave tray 8 with punch holes 7 facilitate the selection of a punch set suitable for the fruit navel specification for different batches of hawthorns; the spring 12 facilitates the automatic opening of the arc-shaped pliers head 1, pointed jaws 4, punching pliers and shearing tips 5 during processing, facilitating continuous processing operations; the latch 13 facilitates the storage of the hawthorn processing pliers after use.

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] Figure 1 This is the front view of Example 1. Figure 2 The side of the pointed jaws 4 and the arc-shaped pliers head 1 in this embodiment refers to the pair of arc-shaped pliers head 1, hinge shaft 2, pair of pliers handles 3 and pair of pointed jaws 4. The pair of pointed jaws 4 are bent to one side, so that the pliers handle 3 can be held at a convenient and comfortable angle to clamp the pointed jaws 4 at the root of the hawthorn fruit stalk, and the fruit stalk can be pulled out by the root, or the residual seeds can be clamped and removed. This embodiment does not have the function of removing the fruit navel.
