[0002] With the development of the food industry, many peels can now be effectively utilized. By processing them into food or medicine, they have different flavors and medicinal values. For example, common citrus peels can be processed into tangerine peel, jam, sugar-pickled peel, etc. In particular, tangerine peel is also a widely used Chinese medicinal material, which has the effects of regulating qi and resolving phlegm, strengthening the spleen and stimulating appetite. Due to the huge demand for tangerine peel, various tangerine peel oranges have been specially cultivated in the prior art. For example, Xinhui orange, also known as Xinhui Guangchen orange or tangerine peel orange, is a famous local specialty of Xinhui District, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, and a Chinese geographical indication product. Xinhui orange, with both skin and flesh, is a medicine and food of the same origin. It is an excellent variety selected by Guangchen orange farmers from the big red orange of the genus Citrus in the Rutaceae family during a long history of cultivation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] Example

[0028] A fruit peel processing device for food processing, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, it includes a main body 1 and a conveyor belt 7; a two-layer structure of a cleaning chamber 15 and a drainage chamber 24 is arranged in the main body 1, wherein the cleaning chamber 15 is located above the drainage chamber 24; the conveyor belt 7 is arranged on one side of the cleaning chamber 15 and is arranged obliquely; a flushing nozzle 9 is arranged on the main body 1 above the conveyor belt 7; wherein the flushing nozzle 9 is used to flush the citrus peels on the conveyor belt 7. It should be noted that the flushing nozzle 9 is arranged obliquely and ensures that the flushing direction is toward the upward side of the conveyor belt 7, so as to prevent the flushing nozzle 9 from flushing the citrus peels on the conveyor belt 7 back into the cleaning chamber 15.

[0029] A communication port 17 is provided on one side of the cleaning chamber 15, and the cleaning chamber 15 is connected to the drainage chamber 24 through the communication port 17. A closed cover plate 16 is provided on the communication port 17. The bottom of the drainage chamber 24 is inclined, wherein a side of the bottom of the drainage chamber 24 close to the communication port 17 is higher than a side away from the communication port 17.

[0030] A drain port 23 is provided on the side of the drain chamber 24 away from the connecting port 17; a filter screen 26 is provided on the side of the drain chamber 24 close to the connecting port 17; a slag discharge port 25 is provided at the bottom of the drain chamber 24 close to the filter screen 26; a bottom door 21 is connected to the bottom of the slag discharge port 25, and the bottom door 21 is used to open or close the slag discharge port 25. It should be noted that the slag discharge port 25 is located on the side of the bottom of the main body 1 that is inclined upward. In addition, the filter screen 26 in the drain chamber 24 is vertically arranged. The distance between the filter screen 26 and the slag discharge port 25 is less than 1 cm. Through this design, the filter screen 26 can directly block impurities on the bottom door 21 of the slag discharge port 25. As a result, when the bottom door 21 is opened, the impurities in the drain chamber 24 can fall freely, effectively improving the efficiency of cleaning impurities.

[0031] Specifically, when in use, the closed cover plate 16 is first placed on the communication port 17 to close the communication port 17. The citrus peel to be cleaned is placed in the cleaning chamber 15, and water is injected into the cleaning chamber 15. The citrus peel is soaked in water for a period of time to facilitate the removal of the bitter components in the citrus peel. At the same time, the impurities adhering to the citrus peel can be swollen to facilitate cleaning. Then the conveyor belt 7 is started, and the conveyor belt 7 conveys the citrus peel upward. During the conveying process, the flushing nozzle 9 will flush the citrus peel. After the flushing is completed, the citrus peel is transported away by the conveyor belt 7 for the next step of processing. After the citrus peel is cleaned, the closed cover plate 16 is opened, and the water in the cleaning chamber 15 is mixed with impurities such as orange peels through the through port and enters the drainage chamber 24, and the filter screen 26 in the drainage chamber 24 will block the impurities. Since the filtered impurities will be deposited at the bottom of the main body 1, it will be difficult for the impurities to completely block the filter screen 26, which can ensure that the water can pass through the filter screen 26 normally and be discharged from the drainage port 23. After the water is completely drained, the bottom door 21 is opened, and the impurities in the drainage chamber 24 will automatically fall from the slag discharge port 25. Finally, the bottom door 21 can be closed and the device can be used continuously. This design can effectively reduce the risk of blockage during drainage, and the slag discharge process is also very convenient. Even if blockage occurs, the bottom door 21 can be opened to drain water through the slag discharge port 25. The entire device has a reasonable structure and is simple and convenient to use.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a rotating drum 11 is rotatably connected to the inside of the cleaning chamber 15 on the main body 1, and a plurality of shifting blades 10 are evenly arranged around the rotating drum 11; a driving device 12 for driving the rotating drum 11 to rotate is also arranged on the main body 1. The rotating drum 11 and the shifting blades 10 are used to push the citrus peels in the cleaning chamber 15 onto the conveyor belt 7. Specifically, when in use, the driving device 12 drives the rotating drum 11 to rotate, and the rotating shifting blades 10 can shift the citrus peels to the side close to the conveyor belt 7. The design of the rotating drum 11 and the shifting blades 10 can facilitate the movement of the citrus peels to the conveyor belt 7, thereby facilitating cleaning.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a partition bar 13 is provided in the middle of the cleaning chamber 15, and the partition bar 13 divides the cleaning chamber 15 into a soaking area 14 and an intermediate area 2, wherein the intermediate area 2 is located on the side close to the conveyor belt 7. When cleaning citrus peels, it is usually necessary to soak them for a period of time. The citrus peels soaked in water will float on the water surface, which is not conducive to soaking. Therefore, the partition bar 13 is used to separate the cleaning chamber 15 into the soaking area 14 and the intermediate area 2. When soaking the citrus peels, put the citrus peels into the soaking area 14, then cover the soaking area 14 with a cover plate, and finally add an appropriate amount of water into the cleaning chamber 15. The partition bar 13 can prevent the citrus peels in the soaking area 14 from running around in the cleaning chamber 15, thereby improving the soaking effect, which can not only remove the bitterness of the citrus peels, but also facilitate the subsequent cleaning of the citrus peels.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a baffle 8 is provided on the conveyor belt 7. Since the surface of the citrus peel is relatively smooth, the citrus peel is easy to slip on the conveyor belt 7, making it difficult for the conveyor belt 7 to carry the citrus peel. After the baffle 8 is provided, the conveyor belt 7 uses the baffle 8 to hook the citrus peel onto the conveyor belt 7. When the citrus peel is washed by the washing nozzle 9, the baffle 8 can also prevent the citrus peel from being washed away.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the bottom of the main body 1 is rotatably connected with a screw rod 22, and the bottom door 21 is threadedly connected with the screw rod 22. More specifically, a sealing ring is provided on the top of the bottom door 21. A rotating handle is provided at one end of the screw rod 22. Through this design, the bottom door 21 can be driven to move by rotating the screw rod 22. After the bottom door 21 moves, the slag discharge port 25 is opened, and the impurities in the drainage cavity 24 fall from the slag discharge port 25. Through this design, the drainage cavity 24 can be easily cleaned.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a return water tank 3 is provided outside the main body 1; the return water tank 3 is connected to the drainage chamber 24; a pressurized water pump 20 is also provided at the bottom of the main body 1, and the return water tank 3 is connected to the pressurized pump through the outlet pipe 18; the pressurized water pump 20 is connected to the flushing nozzle 9 through the flushing pipe 5, and the pressurized water pump 20 is also connected to the cleaning chamber 15 through the return water pipe 4. A large amount of water is needed in the process of flushing citrus peels. The return water tank 3 is set to recycle the used water for continued use. When in use, the water in the cleaning chamber 15 enters the drainage chamber 24, and the filter screen 26 in the drainage chamber 24 filters out large impurities in the water. Then the water in the drainage chamber 24 enters the return water tank 3. The water in the return water tank 3 enters the pressurized pump through the outlet pipe 18, and the pressurized pump transports the water to the flushing nozzle 9 through the flushing pipe 5. The pressurized pump transports the water to the cleaning chamber 15 through the return water pipe 4. Through this design, water recycling is achieved.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a filter 19 is provided on the water outlet pipe 18. The filter 19 is used to filter small impurities in the water coming out of the flushing and drainage chamber 24. Prevent the small impurities from clogging the flushing nozzle 9.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a shovel-shaped unloading area 6 is provided on one side of the outlet of the conveyor belt 7. The design of the unloading area 6 is convenient for collecting the cleaned citrus peels.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 1 to 4As shown, a plurality of anti-skid patterns are provided on the conveyor belt 7. Since the surface of the citrus peel is relatively smooth, the citrus peel is easy to slip on the conveyor belt 7. By providing the anti-skid patterns on the conveyor belt 7, the phenomenon that the citrus peel is easy to slip can be improved.
