Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Prunus mira Koehne processing, and particularly relates to a device for removing the seed shell of Prunus mira Koehne. Background Technique

[0002] Prunus mira Koehne, also known as Tibetan peach, and "Kangbu" in Tibetan, is a deciduous tree of the Rosaceae family and the Prunus genus; the reason why Prunus mira Koehne is called Prunus mira Koehne mainly stems from the characteristics of its seed shell; specifically, the fruit of Prunus mira Koehne is nearly spherical, and the nut is oval, flat and smooth, and this remarkable feature makes it named "Prunus mira Koehne".

[0003] The seed shell of Prunus mira Koehne is relatively hard. Under the same environmental conditions, the shelled Prunus mira Koehne seeds are easier to germinate after sowing than the unshelled Prunus mira Koehne seeds; in the work of cultivating a large number of Prunus mira Koehne seedlings, by removing the seed shell manually, on the one hand, the workload is large, and on the other hand, the integrity of the kernel cannot be ensured during the knocking process, thus affecting the cultivation of Prunus mira Koehne seedlings.

[0004] Some existing methods for removing the seed shell and obtaining the kernel of Prunus mira Koehne usually use hard objects such as a hammer held by hand to knock the seed shell of Prunus mira Koehne. This method can be used when knocking a small amount of Prunus mira Koehne seed shells, but when a large number of Prunus mira Koehne seed shells need to be knocked, the knocker is prone to fatigue. At the same time, the outer shell of Prunus mira Koehne is relatively smooth. During the knocking process, if the knocking method is incorrect, the Prunus mira Koehne seed shells are prone to fly around, making people feel bad during the process of removing the Prunus mira Koehne seed shells. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a device for removing the seed shell of Prunus mira Koehne, which can effectively solve the problem that the seed shell of Prunus mira Koehne is not easy to remove.

Specific embodiments

[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0024] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a device for removing the shell of Prunus mira seeds includes a rectangular box 1. The upper rear end of the rectangular box 1 is fixedly connected with a through viewing window 2. The upper part of the inner cavity of the rectangular box 1 is provided with a crushing component 3. The middle part of the inner surface of the rectangular box 1 is fixedly connected with a fixing plate 4. The left and right sides of the middle upper end of the fixing plate 4 are symmetrically provided with rectangular grooves 1. The upper end of the fixing plate 4 is provided with a placing component 8. The lower rear part of the inner cavity of the rectangular box 1 is provided with a driving component 6. The middle part of the lower inner surface of the rectangular box 1 is fixedly connected with a partition board 9. The partition board 9 is symmetrically provided with clamping components 7 on the left and right sides.

[0025] In a specific implementation, the placement component 8 is drawn out of the rectangular box 1, the Prunus mira seed shells are placed in the placement component 8, and then the placement component 8 is slid back into the rectangular box 1. The driving component 6 is activated to drive the two clamping components 7 to clamp and fix the Prunus mira seed shells tightly. Then, the crushing component 3 is activated to extrude and crush the Prunus mira seed shells. During the crushing process, the specific crushing situation of the walnut seed shells can be observed through the visual window 2. The entire crushing work of the Prunus mira seed shells is carried out inside the rectangular box 1, so it is not easy for the Prunus mira seed shells to fly around during the crushing process and hurt people.

[0026] Specifically, in order to reduce the workload of people removing the Prunus mira seed shells and make the removal work of the Prunus mira seed shells more convenient, referring to the figure, the crushing component 3 includes an electric cylinder 31, the electric cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the upper side of the inner surface of the rectangular box 1, and the lower end of the piston rod at the output end of the electric cylinder 31 is fixedly connected with a crushing block 32;

[0027] The driving component 6 includes a double-shaft motor 62, the double-shaft motor 62 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the rear side of the inner surface of the rectangular box 1, the right output end of the double-shaft motor 62 is fixedly connected with a first rotating rod 61 through a coupling, and the left output end of the double-shaft motor 62 is fixedly connected with a second rotating rod 63 through a coupling;

[0028] Both of the two clamping components 7 include threaded rods 72. The two threaded rods 72 are respectively rotatably connected to the upper parts of the left and right ends of the partition plate 9. Pulley wheels 71 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the two threaded rods 72 on the side away from the partition plate 9. The front sides of the two pulley wheels 71 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first rotating rod 61 and the outer surface of the second rotating rod 63. Slide rods 73 are threadedly connected to the outer surfaces of the two threaded rods 72. The two slide rods 73 are slidably connected to the lower part of the rear side of the inner surface of the rectangular box 1. The front sides of the upper ends of the two slide rods 73 are fixedly connected with connecting plates 74. Arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 are fixedly connected to the upper parts of the opposite ends of the two connecting plates 74;

[0029] A number of silicone convex blocks 76 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 75. The number of silicone convex blocks 76 are all distributed in an arc array;

[0030] The placement component 8 includes a placement plate 82. The placement plate 82 is slidably connected to the middle part of the upper end of the fixing plate 4. Rectangular grooves two 81 are symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the front part of the upper end of the placement plate 82. A placement groove 83 is opened in the middle of the front side of the upper end of the placement plate 82. A through groove 84 is opened in the lower part of the rear end of the rectangular box 1. A baffle 85 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the placement plate 82. A pull handle 86 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the rear end of the baffle 85;

[0031] The lower end surface of the broken block 32 and the inner surface of the placement groove 83 are both rough surfaces.

[0032] The size of the placement groove 83 mentioned above is such that when the seed shell of Prunus mira is placed therein, both sides of the seed shell of Prunus mira exceed the two side edges of the placement groove 83. In this way, the two clamping components 7 can complete the clamping and fixing work of the seed shell of Prunus mira with a conventional size.

[0033] The above-mentioned dual-axis motor 62 is characterized in that it can drive two shafts to operate independently. When it is necessary for the two rods to rotate in the same direction, it can be achieved by setting the two output shafts of the dual-axis motor to rotate in the same rotation direction. Similarly, if it is necessary for the two rods to rotate in opposite directions, it can also be achieved by adjusting the settings of the motor controller. It is a mature technical means in the prior art. In this solution, only the function that its two shafts can operate independently, thereby driving two objects to operate independently or simultaneously, the function of controlling the number of rotation turns and starting and stopping at any time, and the function of controlling the rotation directions of the rotating rod one 61 and the rotating rod two 63 to be the same or opposite are borrowed. Here, its structure and working principle will not be elaborated further.

[0034] In a specific implementation, hold the pull handle 86 and pull out the placement plate 82 from the rectangular box 1. Place the seed shell of Prunus mira in the placement groove 83, and then slide the placement plate 82 back into the rectangular box 1. At this time, the first rectangular groove 5 and the second rectangular groove 81 on the same side are in a coincident state. Turn on the dual-axis motor 62 to drive both the rotating rod one 61 and the rotating rod two 63 to rotate. Under the action of the two belt pulleys 71, both of the two threaded rods 72 rotate, thereby driving both of the two sliding rods 73 to move towards the direction close to the seed shell of Prunus mira. Both of the two sliding rods 73 are slidably connected to the inner surface of the rectangular box 1. When the two threaded rods 72 rotate to drive the two sliding rods 73 to move, the movement of the sliding rods 73 can be limited. Both of the two sliding rods 73 move towards the direction close to the seed shell of Prunus mira, thereby driving both of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 to move towards the direction close to the seed shell of Prunus mira until the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 clamp and fix the seed shell of Prunus mira tightly.

[0035] Since the dual-axis motor 62 can drive the rotating rod one 61 and the rotating rod two 63 to operate independently, the moving distances of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 can be inconsistent and are completely independent. In this way, when it is necessary to clamp the seed shells of Prunus mira with inconsistent and irregular sides on both sides, the clamping and fixing can also be completed, making the clamping and fixing operation of the seed shells of Prunus mira by this device more universal.

[0036] A number of silica gel convex blocks 76 can play a role in increasing the friction force and can increase the stability when the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 clamp the seed shell of Prunus mira.

[0037] After the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 complete the clamping and fixing work on the Prunus mira seed shell, the electric cylinder 31 is activated to extend the piston rod, thereby driving the crushing block 32 to move downward to extrude and crush the Prunus mira seed shell. Since the lower end surface of the crushing block 32 and the inner surface of the placement groove 83 are both rough surfaces, it also plays a role in increasing friction. This can prevent the Prunus mira seed shell from shaking randomly when the crushing block 32 extrudes and crushes the Prunus mira seed shell, thereby further increasing the stability of the crushing operation of the Prunus mira seed shell. During this process, the crushing situation of the Prunus mira seed shell can be seen through the viewing window 2, so as to better control the force of the electric cylinder 31 to extrude and crush the Prunus mira seed shell and observe the crushing situation of the Prunus mira seed shell;

[0038] After completing the crushing operation on the Prunus mira seed shell, the electric cylinder 31 is activated to retract the piston rod, thereby driving the crushing block 32 to move upward. Then, the double-shaft motor 62 is activated to drive the first rotating rod 61 and the second rotating rod 63 to rotate, causing both threaded rods 72 to rotate, driving both sliding rods 73 to move away from the Prunus mira seed shell, and thus driving both arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 to move away from the Prunus mira seed shell. After both arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 have moved to a position where they will not obstruct the extraction of the placement plate 82 from the rectangular box 1, the placement plate 82 is extracted from the rectangular box 1, and the crushed Prunus mira seed shell and Prunus mira seed kernel are taken out from the placement groove 83.

[0039] It should be noted specifically that the specific installation method, circuit connection method, and control method of the double-shaft motor 62 used in the present utility model are all conventional designs, and the present utility model will not elaborate in detail.

[0040] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0041] The placement plate 82 is extracted from the rectangular box 1. After placing the Prunus mira seed shell in the placement groove 83, the placement plate 82 is slid back into the rectangular box 1. The double-shaft motor 62 is activated to drive both the first rotating rod 61 and the second rotating rod 63 to rotate, causing both threaded rods 72 to rotate, driving both arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 to move toward the Prunus mira seed shell to clamp and fix it. Then, the electric cylinder 31 is activated to extend the piston rod, driving the crushing block 32 to move downward, so that the crushing block 32 extrudes and crushes the Prunus mira seed shell;

[0042] After completing the extrusion and crushing operation on the Prunus mira seed shell, the double-shaft motor 62 is activated to move both arc-shaped clamping blocks 75 away from the Prunus mira seed shell. After no longer clamping the Prunus mira seed shell, the placement plate 82 is extracted from the rectangular box 1, and the crushed Prunus mira seed shell and Prunus mira seed kernel are taken out from the placement groove 83.

[0043] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and what is described in the above embodiments and the specification is only to illustrate the principle of the present utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, the present utility model will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present utility model claimed. The scope of protection claimed by the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
