[0002] Walnut is a very delicious food and can be processed into various snacks and candies. However, it is very troublesome for walnut processing plants to crack the shells and extract the kernels of walnuts. After the walnuts are picked, the outer green skin needs to be cleaned off first, and then the shells can be cracked. Shelling is very troublesome and requires heavy objects to break the shells, which can also cause damage to passers-by and make the appearance unsightly. The existing walnut shelling and kernel extraction are completed by two different devices, which cannot work well together during the production process, resulting in low production efficiency and insufficient shell cracking. Many walnuts are moved to the kernel extraction machine without being cracked, and some walnuts have small shell damage, so that the kernels cannot be removed when the kernels are extracted, which is very wasteful.

Based on the embodiments of 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.

[0024] See also Figures 1 to 5 The utility model discloses an automated walnut shelling and kernel extraction production system, comprising: a shelling device 1, a drying device 2, and a kernel extraction device 3; the drying device 2 is arranged on the left side of the shelling device 1, and the kernel extraction device 3 is arranged on the right side of the shelling device 1; the lower end of the shelling device 1 is a base frame 12, and an inclined plate 13 is arranged on the base frame 12; a shelling groove 14 is installed on the upper end of the inclined plate 13 through a rotating shaft; a telescopic component 15 is arranged above the shelling groove 14, and the telescopic component 15 is installed by a vertical plate 11 perpendicular to the ground; the kernel extraction device 3 further comprises a material collection port 31, a cylinder 32, a screw rod 33, a driving component 34, and a discharge port 35; the material collection port 31 is placed on the right side of the base frame 12; the cylinder 32 is arranged by equidistantly arranged circular rings 321; the screw rod 33 is installed on the axis of the cylinder 32; the screw rod 33 is connected to the driving component 34; and the discharge port 35 is arranged at the right end of the cylinder 32.

[0025] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the device forms a walnut production system by sequentially arranging a drying device 2, a shell breaking device 1, and a kernel taking device 3. First, the walnuts are dried by the drying device 2. The high temperature can make the walnut shells quickly brittle. Then, the walnuts are transported to the shell breaking device 1 through a conveyor belt. The walnuts fall into the shell breaking groove 14 uniformly. The telescopic component 15 controls the pressing plate to crush the walnut shells. Then, the shell breaking groove 14 tilts downward, and the walnuts slide into the kernel taking device 3. The kernel taking device 3 includes a collection port 31, a cylinder 32, and a spiral rod. 33, drive assembly 34, discharge port 35, the walnuts slide from the collection port 31 into the cylinder 32, the drive assembly 34 controls the rotation of the screw rod 33, the screw rod 33 quickly flips the walnuts, and the damaged shell is thrown out by centrifugal force to separate the kernel and the shell. The shell is easily thrown out from the gap of the ring 321 due to its damage, and the kernel is large and cannot be thrown out, and then moves forward with the push of the screw rod 33, and finally reaches the right end of the cylinder 32 and is discharged from the discharge port 35 into the container to be collected.

[0026] In this embodiment, the telescopic assembly 15 is composed of a first telescopic rod group 151 used for shell breaking and a second telescopic rod group 152 for controlling the rotation of the shell breaking groove 14. The vertical plate 11 is an inverted "L" shaped structure. The first telescopic rod group 151 is neatly installed at the lower end of the vertical plate 11. The second telescopic rod group 152 is arranged at the right end of the vertical plate 11 and is distributed on both sides of the shell breaking groove 14. The lower end of the first telescopic rod group 151 is connected to a pressing plate 16, and the pressing plate 16 matches the bottom of the shell breaking groove 14. The bottom of the second telescopic rod group 152 is provided with a supporting block 1521, and the supporting block 1521 is in an "L" shape. The lower end of the supporting block 1521 supports the shell breaking groove 14.

[0027] In this embodiment, a groove 131 capable of accommodating the bottom surface of the support block 1521 is formed at the right end of the inclined plate 13 .

[0028] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the shell breaking groove 14 provided in the shell breaking device 1 is filled with walnuts, and then the first telescopic rod group 151 is moved downward to drive the pressing plate 16 connected at the bottom to extend into the shell breaking groove 14 to crush the walnuts, and a second telescopic rod group 152 is provided at the right end, and a supporting block 1521 is provided at the bottom of the second telescopic rod group 152. The supporting block 1521 is "L"-shaped, and the bottom just lifts the right end of the shell breaking groove 14 to make it in a horizontal position. After the shell breaking is completed, the second telescopic rod group 152 moves downward, and the supporting block 1521 also moves downward, and the right end of the shell breaking groove 14 also moves downward, but the left end of the shell breaking groove 14 is installed on the inclined plate 13 through a rotating shaft. The shell breaking groove 14 moves downward, and actually rotates at a small angle with the rotating shaft as the axis. Finally, the supporting block 1521 moves into the embedding groove 131. At this time, the bottom of the shell breaking groove 14 just fits with the inclined surface of the inclined plate 13, and the shell breaking groove 14 is in a downward slanting state, so that the walnuts in the shell breaking groove 14 will slide out of the shell breaking device 1 to the lower right. After the walnuts have slid, the second telescopic rod group 152 controls the supporting block 1521 to lift and move the shell breaking groove 14 to the initial position, and then the drying device 2 conveys another batch of walnuts, and the first telescopic rod group 151 controls the pressing plate 16 to perform the next round of shell breaking, and this is repeated to efficiently complete the shelling work of the walnuts.

[0029] In this embodiment, the driving assembly 34 is composed of a motor 341 and a belt 342 . The motor 341 is installed on the left side of the cylinder 32 , and the motor 341 is connected to the screw rod 33 through the belt 342 .

[0030] See also Figure 5 As shown, the driving assembly 34 is composed of a motor 341 and a belt 342. The motor 341 is started to drive the belt 342 to rotate, and the belt 342 drives the spiral rod 33 to rotate. The rotation of the spiral rod 33 separates the walnut shell from the kernel, completing the kernel removal work.

[0031] In this embodiment, a horizontal plate 322 is provided at the lower end of the cylinder 32 to connect with the discharge port 35 , and a reinforcing rib 323 is provided at the upper end of the cylinder 32 to fix the ring 321 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the rings 321 are arranged in sequence along the axis direction of the cylinder 32, and the width of the gaps between the rings 321 is 2 cm.

[0033] See also Figure 4As shown, the cylinder 32 accommodates the spiral rod 33 and walnuts, and the horizontal plate 322 at the bottom can facilitate the kernels that have been separated from the shell to move rightward in the cylinder 32. The reinforcing ribs 323 can weld and fix the rings 321 to have the same gap and improve the strength of the cylinder 32 at the same time; the width of the gap between the rings 321 is 2 cm. After the shell is broken, the shell of the walnut is broken into small pieces, which can be easily thrown up when the spiral rod 33 rotates. The kernel is irregular in shape and large, with a length of more than 4 cm and light in weight. When the spiral rod 33 rotates, it is not easy to be thrown up, and it cannot pass through the gap between the rings 321 of only 2 cm, while the shell has weight and can easily pass through the gap. In this way, when the spiral rod 33 rotates, the shell and kernel of the walnut can not only be separated, but also the shell is completely thrown out of the cylinder 32, leaving only the kernel, so that the final kernel can be clean without any shell mixed in it.

[0034] In this embodiment, the material collecting opening 31 is provided with an inclined groove 36 aligned with the shell breaking groove 14 .

[0035] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the width of the shell breaking groove 14 is greater than the gathering port 31, and when the gathering port 31 moves downward, many walnuts fly out of the shell breaking groove 14. In order to ensure that all the walnuts enter the gathering port 31, an inclined groove 36 is welded on it. The width of the upper end of the inclined groove 36 is the same as the width of the shell breaking groove 14, and the lower end of the inclined groove 36 is narrowed to the same as the gathering port 31. Therefore, after the walnuts come out of the shell breaking groove 14, they are all collected by the inclined groove 36 and uniformly aggregated at the gathering port 31.

[0036] In this embodiment, the right end of the shell breaking groove 14 is open and a rotating plate 141 is provided at the opening through a rotating shaft.

[0037] See also Figure 2 As shown, a rotating plate 141 is provided at the right end opening of the shell breaking groove 14, which is installed by a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is set at the upper end. When the second telescopic rod group 152 drives the supporting block 1521 to move downward, the shell breaking groove 14 rotates downward. At this time, the shell breaking groove 14 is in a slanted downward state. Due to the effect of gravity, the rotating plate 141 still maintains its original state, so an opening is formed between the rotating plate 141 and the shell breaking groove 14. This opening makes it easy for the walnuts in the shell breaking groove 14 to pass through and slide into the gathering port 31.

[0038] The preferred embodiments of the utility model disclosed above are only used to help explain the utility model. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementation methods described. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments in order to better explain the principles and practical applications of the utility model, so that technicians in the relevant technical field can well understand and use the utility model. The utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
