[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of star anise detection, and in particular relates to a star anise branch and leaf removal device. Background Art

[0002] Star anise is a plant of the Illicium family and genus Illicium. It is named because most of its fruits contain eight corners. It has the functions of strengthening the stomach and expelling wind. Its fruits and seeds can be used as seasonings, and can also be used in industry to make perfumes, toothpastes, soaps, etc. When star anise is used as a seasoning, pesticide residue limit testing is required to ensure food safety.

[0003] According to the provisions of GB 2763-2021 "National Food Safety Standard Maximum Residue Limits of Pesticides in Food", when detecting the pesticide residues in star anise, it is necessary to sample and test the fruit part of the star anise (its effective ingredients are mostly concentrated in the fruit part of the star anise), and crush, extract, and dissolve the fruit of the star anise. When star anise is used as a seasoning, it will be dried and preserved first, and some star anise will retain twigs and leaves. Therefore, when detecting the pesticide residues, it is necessary to remove the branches and leaves on the star anise to avoid sampling and testing the branches and leaves, which reduces the detection accuracy. However, in the prior art, there is a lack of devices for star anise branch and leaf detection, and most of them are manually removed from the branches and leaves on the star anise, which has a high work intensity.

In addition, it should be noted that the connection method between the motor and the shaft is a conventional connection, and the specific model of the motor is not an improvement point of this application, so it will not be repeated here.

[0029] Working method:

[0030] When in use, star anise is poured into the shell body 21 and the cylinder body 24 through the feed port, and the motor 3 is started. The motor 3 drives the shaft body 22 to rotate, and the beating member 23 rotates with the shaft body 22 to beat the star anise fruit and its branches and leaves inside, so that the branches and leaves on the star anise fall off from the fruit. Because most of the star anise is dried, its branches and leaves are easier to separate from the fruit, and the star anise fruit will be crushed, extracted, dissolved and other operations will be performed later. There is no requirement for the integrity of the star anise fruit. In the process of moving from the feed port to the discharge port, the branches and leaves of the star anise are continuously separated from the star anise. The branches and leaves of the star anise are much smaller than the volume and thickness of the star anise fruit. After separation, the branches and leaves of the star anise are discharged from the slots of the cylinder body 24, realizing the mechanized separation of the star anise fruit and the branches and leaves.

[0031] like Figure 4As shown, preferably, the beating piece 23 is a plate structure; one end of the beating piece is connected to the side of the shaft body 22; multiple beating pieces 23 are spaced apart along the axis direction of the shaft body 22; multiple beating pieces 23 can be distributed along a spiral line, or multiple groups can be provided, each group of beating pieces 23 has 2 to 3 pieces, and multiple groups of beating pieces 23 are equally spaced along the axis direction of the shaft body 22 to improve the beating effect of the beating piece 23 on the octagon; one end of the beating piece 23 away from the shaft body 22 is close to the inner wall of the cylinder 24.

[0032] Preferably, the debranching component 2 also includes a hair dryer (not shown); the hair dryer is located below the discharge port; the hair dryer blows air in the direction of the star anise discharge, that is, the hair dryer blows air in the path of the star anise falling from the discharge port, and a collecting container is placed below the discharge port. The separated star anise is discharged from the discharge port and falls into the collecting container. During the falling process, the hair dryer blows air towards the star anise. Because the weight of the star anise fruit is greater than the dry branches and leaves, the dry branches and leaves that have not been discharged from the cylinder 24 can be separated from the star anise fruit when blowing air, thereby further improving the separation of the star anise and its dry branches and leaves, and ensuring the separation effect.

[0033] Embodiment 2:

[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, compared with the first embodiment, the difference lies in: a structural form of the shell 21 is given; the shell 21 includes a first shell 211, a second shell 212 and a third shell 213; the first shell 211 and the third shell 213 are both circular structures; the second shell 212 is arranged on the frame 1; the cylinder 24 is located in the second shell 212; the two ends of the second shell 212 are respectively connected to the first shell 211 and the third shell 213; the feed port is opened on the first shell 211; the discharge port is opened on the third shell 213; one end of the shaft 22 is rotatably set on the first shell 211, and the other end thereof is rotatably set on the third shell 213, wherein the first shell 211 is mainly used for feeding and conveying, the second shell 212 is used to cover the cylinder 24, and the third shell 213 is for discharging; the flapping member 23 is distributed in the area where the shaft 22 is located in the second shell 212.

[0036] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, preferably, the debranching component 2 also includes a spiral blade 25; the spiral blade 25 is arranged in the area of ​​the shaft body 22 located in the first shell 211; a gap is left between the spiral blade 25 and the inner wall of the first shell 211; the diameter of the first shell 211 is less than or equal to the diameter of the cylinder 24; when the motor 3 drives the shaft body 22 to rotate, the spiral blade 25 also rotates with the shaft body 22, and the rotation of the spiral blade 25 drives the star anise to move forward, so that the star anise is transported into the cylinder 24, so that the star anise can be added to the cylinder 24 while being beaten.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, preferably, the diameter of the third shell 213 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the cylinder 24, so that the star anise can enter the third shell 213 and be discharged; the debranching component 2 also includes a discharge pipe 26; one end of the discharge pipe 26 is connected to the discharge port, and the other end faces the ground, and the falling path of the star anise is limited by the discharge pipe 26, so that the hair dryer can blow air on the star anise.

[0038] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
