Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coconut milk processing, and particularly relates to a coconut meat cleaning device. Background Art
[0002] In the processing of coconut milk, it is necessary to clean the coconut meat at the initial stage to wash away the debris and impurities adhered to the coconut meat during the process of breaking the coconut shell and taking out the meat.
[0003] The cleaning of coconut meat has gone through several improvements. Initially, workers held the coconuts and rinsed them one by one under a water column, which was labor-consuming and inefficient. Later, with the increase in production capacity, ordinary soaking machines were purchased, and the coconut meat was soaked in a rolling pool and then taken out through a lifting and water-filtering conveyor belt. However, it was found during use that the detached debris and impurities would adhere to the coconut meat again during the lifting process, and the cleaning effect was not good. Finally, a new cleaning method was adopted, where the coconut meat was placed on a conveyor belt and sprayed at fixed points with fixed nozzles, but manual turning was still required. Although the efficiency was much higher than before, manual turning was still labor-consuming, and some impurities would stick to the spraying dead corners, resulting in omission, and the cleaning effect and efficiency could not meet the expectations.
[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to design a coconut meat cleaning device that can improve the cleaning effect while saving labor and comprehensively clean the coconut meat. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a coconut meat cleaning device to solve the problems described in the background art.
[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is realized as follows:
[0007] A coconut meat cleaning device includes a water tank and two sets of cleaning mechanisms arranged front and back in the water tank. The cleaning mechanism includes a first bracket, a second bracket, a third bracket, a fourth bracket, and a fifth bracket arranged in the water tank. A chain mesh conveyor belt is provided on the first bracket, an upper water spraying frame is provided on the second bracket, an oscillation frame is provided on the third bracket, a lower water spraying frame is provided on the fourth bracket, and an oscillation mechanism is provided on the fifth bracket. The upper water spraying frame is arranged above the chain mesh conveyor belt, and a plurality of upper nozzles for spraying a water curtain towards the upper end of the chain mesh conveyor belt are further provided on the upper water spraying frame. The middle front end of the bottom of the oscillation frame is rotatably installed on the third bracket, and the rear end of the oscillation frame is lower than the front end so that the oscillation frame is inclined. The middle rear end of the bottom of the oscillation frame is drivenly connected to the oscillation mechanism so that the middle rear end of the oscillation frame oscillates up and down. A steel mesh is covered on the top of the oscillation frame. The front end of the oscillation frame is arranged at the rear end of the chain mesh conveyor belt for receiving the materials output from the chain mesh conveyor belt. The lower water spraying frame is arranged below the steel mesh, and a plurality of lower nozzles for spraying a water curtain towards the bottom of the steel mesh are further provided on the lower water spraying frame. The front end of the chain mesh conveyor belt of the rear set of cleaning mechanisms is arranged below the rear end of the oscillation frame of the front set of cleaning mechanisms. A water pump is further provided outside the water tank. The water inlet end of the water pump is connected to the inside of the water tank, and the water outlet end of the water pump is also connected to the upper nozzles and the lower nozzles through pipelines.
[0008] When using the above solution, the coconut meat is conveyed onto the chain mesh conveyor belt of the front set. As the chain mesh conveyor belt conveys backward, the upper nozzles on the upper water spraying frame spray a water curtain downward to wash the upward-facing side of the coconut meat. The chain mesh can drain the washed objects and washing water into the lower water tank. When the coconut meat is conveyed by the chain mesh conveyor belt to the oscillation frame, under the action of the inclined oscillation frame and the oscillation mechanism, the coconut meat slides backward along the steel mesh. At the same time, the lower nozzles on the lower water spraying frame spray a water curtain upward to wash the downward-facing side of the coconut meat. At the same time, the oscillation effect can also make the coconut meat oscillate up and down and rub against each other, shaking off or rubbing and moving some impurities hidden in the washing dead corners to the washing position, improving the cleaning effect. The steel mesh can drain the washed objects and washing water into the lower water tank. When the coconut meat passes through the cleaning mechanism of the front set, it falls onto the chain mesh conveyor belt of the rear set. The falling process can turn some coconut meat over, so that the coconut meat undergoes the above washing process again after being turned over. After being washed by the two sets of cleaning mechanisms, the coconut meat automatically realizes washing on both the front and back sides more than twice. During the process, not only does it not require manual turning, but also the cleaning effect is improved.
[0009] A further technical solution is that the oscillation mechanism includes a cam rotatably installed on the fifth bracket, and further includes a mounting plate fixed on the fifth bracket. A motor is fixed on the mounting plate, and the output shaft of the motor is drivingly connected to the cam so that the cam rotates. The middle rear end of the bottom of the oscillation frame is placed on the cam.
[0010] When using the above solution, the motor drives the cam to rotate, and the oscillation frame oscillates up and down following the cam profile.
[0011] A further technical solution is that a support rod is fixedly provided at the upper end of the oscillation frame, a water baffle is provided on the support rod, and a water baffle cover is arranged above the steel mesh to block the water curtain sprayed upward from the lower nozzle.
[0012] When the above solution is used, the water curtain sprayed from the lower nozzle can be restrained by providing a water baffle.
[0013] A further technical solution is that the oscillation frame is a rectangular frame body surrounded by four long rectangular plates.
[0014] A further technical solution is that a front guide plate is also provided at the front end of the oscillation frame, and the front end of the front guide plate extends to the rear end of the chain mesh conveyor belt for receiving and guiding materials.
[0015] When the above solution is used, the front guide plate is provided so that the coconut meat can be more smoothly transferred from the chain mesh conveyor belt to the steel mesh.
[0016] A further technical solution is that a rear guide plate extending backwards is also provided at the rear end of the oscillation frame.
[0017] When the above solution is used, the rear guide plate is provided to facilitate the adjustment of the posture of the coconut meat when it falls from the front cleaning mechanism to the rear cleaning mechanism, thereby ensuring the orderly falling of the coconut meat.
[0018] A further technical solution is that the front end of the bottom of the oscillation frame is rotatably mounted on the third bracket through a hinge.
[0019] A further technical solution is that the water curtain sprayed by the upper nozzle is a fan-shaped water curtain.
[0020] A further technical solution is that the water curtain sprayed by the lower nozzle is a fan-shaped water curtain.
[0021] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0022] 1. Comprehensive cleaning: Through the setting of the upper and lower nozzles, the upward and downward sides of the coconut meat are washed respectively to ensure that both sides of the coconut meat can be thoroughly cleaned.
[0023] 2. Efficient decontamination: The interaction between the oscillating mechanism and the coconut meat (up and down oscillation and mutual friction) helps to shake off or rub the impurities hidden in the dead corners of the flushing to the flushing position, thereby improving the cleaning effect.
[0024] 3. High degree of automation: The entire cleaning process is automated, without the need for manual turning over, saving labor costs and improving production efficiency.
[0025] 4. Good cleaning effect: The coconut meat is cleaned twice by the cleaning mechanism, achieving more than two rinses on both sides, ensuring the thoroughness and effect of cleaning. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
