[0027] The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-4 ,

[0029] A nut laser ring shelling device includes: a frame 1, a first rotating rod 2, a second rotating rod 3, a first power member 4 and a laser generator 5. The first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3 are respectively connected to the frame 1 through bearings, one end of the first rotating rod 2 forms a first clamping part, one end of the second rotating rod 3 forms a second clamping part, the first clamping part and the second clamping part are opposite, the first clamping part and the second clamping part are both grooves matched with the nut shell, a clamping space is formed between the first clamping part and the second clamping part for accommodating the nut, and the first clamping part and the second clamping part are against the shell of the nut. The first power member 4 is a first motor, the shell of the first power member 4 is fixed to the frame 1 by bolts, the output end of the first power member 4 is coaxially connected to the first rotating rod 2, and the first power member 4 rotates the first rotating rod 2 to drive the nut to rotate around the axis of the first rotating rod 2. The laser generator is a carbon dioxide laser cutter. The laser generator 5 forms a laser irradiation end 51. The laser irradiation end 51 emits laser light to irradiate the shell of the nut. As the nut rotates 360 degrees around the axis of the first rotating rod 2, the laser performs a circular cut on the shell of the nut to divide the shell of the nut into two complete halves. The two cut halves of the shell wrap the pulp, and the cut surface is smooth and flat.

[0030] Specifically, the frame 1 includes: a fixed plate 11, a movable plate 12 and a second power member 13. The first rotating rod 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 11 through a bearing, and the second rotating rod 3 is rotatably connected to the movable plate 12 through a bearing. The second power member 13 is a hydraulic cylinder, the housing of the second power member 13 is fixed to the fixed plate by bolts, the output end of the second power member 13 is fixed to the movable plate 12 by bolts, and the second power member 13 makes the movable plate 12 approach and move away from the fixed plate 11 in a straight line. When the movable plate 12 drives the second rotating rod 3 away from the first rotating rod 2, the length of the clamping space becomes larger, which is convenient for workers to place nuts between the first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3. Then, the movable plate 12 drives the second rotating rod 3 to approach the first rotating rod 2, and the first clamping part and the second clamping part press the nut tightly to fix the nut. After the laser ring cutting of the nut is completed, the second rotating rod 3 is away from the first rotating rod 2, and the nut falls under gravity and is collected by the worker.

[0031] Specifically, the frame 1 further includes: a first guide rail 14 and a guide frame 15. The guide frame 15 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 14, and the guide frame 15 is fixed to the moving plate 12 by bolts. When the second power member 13 moves the moving plate 12, the guide frame 15 slides along the first guide rail 14, and the first guide rail 14 and the guide frame 15 cooperate to guide the movement of the moving plate 12.

[0032] Specifically, the frame 1 also includes: a bottom plate 16, a second guide rail 17 and a third power member 18. The lower end of the fixed plate 11 and the first guide rail 14 are welded and fixed to the upper end of the bottom plate 16, the output end of the third power member 18 is fixed to the bottom plate 16 by bolts, the bottom plate 16 and the second guide rail 17 are slidably matched, and the third power member 18 makes the bottom plate 16 reciprocate along the second guide rail 17, which is used to make the first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3 approach and move away from the laser irradiation end 51. The first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3 clamp the nut outside the irradiation range of the laser irradiation end 51, and the third power member 18 moves the bottom plate 16 to make the first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3 approach the laser irradiation end 51, and the laser performs ring cutting on the nut, so that the position where the laser ring cuts the nut and the position where the nut is clamped are separated.

[0033] Specifically, it also includes: a vibration disk 6, a rotating wheel 7 and a fourth power member 8. The wheel surface of the rotating wheel 7 forms a plurality of slots, and in this embodiment, there are six slots equidistantly distributed around the circumference. The output end of the vibration disk 6 is placed in the first position, and the first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3 are away from the laser irradiation end 51 to the second position. The fourth power member 8 is a second motor, and the output end of the fourth power member 8 is fixed to the rotating wheel 7. The fourth power member 8 moves the rotating wheel 7 so that the plurality of slots move from the first position to the second position one by one. When any slot on the first rotating wheel 7 rotates to the first position, the output end of the vibration disk 6 feeds a nut into the slot. After that, the rotating wheel 7 continues to rotate, and the nut in the slot is moved to the second position, and at the same time, a new nut is fed into the slot at the first position. The nut at the second position is clamped by the first rotating rod 2 and the second rotating rod 3, and is moved to the front of the laser irradiation end 51 to complete the ring cutting, thereby realizing the automatic feeding of the nut.

[0034] Specifically, the slot of the card slot at the first position faces upward, and the angle between the card slot at the second position and the line connecting the center of the rotating wheel 7 and the ground is greater than 50 degrees and less than 90 degrees, specifically 60 degrees, thereby preventing the nut from slipping out of the card slot when the rotating wheel 7 transfers the nut.

[0035] Specifically, it also includes: a fifth power member 9 and a pneumatic claw 10. The fifth power member 9 is a cylinder, and the output end of the fifth power member 9 can be close to and away from the output end of the vibration disk 6. The side of the pneumatic claw 10 is in contact with the output end of the vibration disk 6, and the lower end of the pneumatic claw 10 is in contact with the wheel surface of the rotating wheel 7. The output end of the vibration disk 6 outputs a nut to the pneumatic claw 10, and the output end of the fifth power member 9 is close to the output end of the vibration disk 6 to press a subsequent adjacent nut to prevent the subsequent nut from continuing to move toward the pneumatic claw 10. The pneumatic claw 10 opens, and the nut falls into the card slot of the rotating wheel 7 located in the first position. Then the pneumatic claw 10 closes, and the output end of the fifth power member 9 is away from the output end of the vibration disk 6, so as to realize intermittent feeding to the rotating wheel 7.

[0036] Specifically, it also includes: a baffle 11. The output end of the vibration disk 6 is placed on one side of the rotating wheel 7, the baffle 11 is fixed to the outer shell of the pneumatic claw 10, the plane of the baffle 11 is in contact with the other side of the rotating wheel 7, and the baffle 11 is opposite to the output end of the vibration disk 6. When the nut is fed from the output end of the vibration disk 6 into the card slot of the rotating wheel 7, due to inertia, the nut has a tendency to move to the side of the rotating wheel 7, and the baffle 11 will block the nut, so that the nut stays in the card slot, thereby preventing the nut from sliding off the side of the rotating wheel 7.

[0037] The above descriptions are only some preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and an explanation of the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the invention involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure is not limited to the technical solutions formed by a specific combination of the above-mentioned technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above-mentioned technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the above-mentioned inventive concept.
