[0008] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows:

[0009] When the prickly ash stalk separating device of the present utility model is specifically used, prickly ash with stalks is poured from the feeding port and conveyed to the rotating roller group through the diversion plate. The two groups of rotating roller groups rotate relatively to drive the prickly ash to move downward from the intersection. The rotating cylinder below rotates, and the prickly ash grains are stuck into the scraping openings. The rotation speed of the second motor is greater than that of the first motor, so that the rotating cylinder drives the prickly ash to rotate inward. The prickly ash stalks will be stuck in the strip-shaped through openings on the scraping openings accordingly. The scraping openings continue to rotate, driving the strip-shaped through openings to cut off the prickly ash stalks, thereby realizing the separation of the prickly ash grains and the stalks. There is a certain distance between the rotating cylinder and the inner wall of the box body. The separated stalks fall onto the conveyor belt through the discharge port as the rotating cylinder rotates. The scraper between the rotating roller group and the rotating cylinder can scrape off the prickly ash with stalks carried away by the rotation of the rotating roller group and the rotating cylinder, and fall onto the conveyor belt through the discharge port in the rotation direction of the rotating cylinder. The prickly ash grains separated from the stalks fall onto the conveyor belt through the lower end of the rotating cylinder. The conveyor belt moves upward. Using the frictional force, the stalks and residues are transported upward, while the prickly ash moves downward, thus screening out the prickly ash and the stalks.

[0010] The present utility model drives the prickly ash with stalks to move downward through the relative rotation of two groups of rotating roller groups, and is pulled into the prickly ash grains by the rotating cylinder, realizing the separation from the stalks. The prickly ash grains and the stalks fall onto the conveyor belt. Using the frictional force on the conveyor belt, the prickly ash and the stalks are screened out.

The fourth motor is arranged parallel to the conveyor belt. The output shaft of the fourth motor is eccentrically connected with a cam, and can touch the conveyor belt. The fourth motor drives the cam to touch the conveyor belt moving up and down, causing the conveyor belt to vibrate. Since the prickly ash is spherical, it rolls downward under the vibration.

[0012] In a further technical solution, the diversion plates are symmetrically distributed about the center of the box body and are inclined, so that the prickly ash with stalks automatically flows into the intersection of the two groups of rotating roller groups.

[0013] In a further technical solution, a plurality of arc-shaped scraping teeth are provided on the rotating wheel, and the scraping teeth hook the prickly ash with stalks, thereby driving it to move downward.

[0014] In a further technical solution, baffles are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt, and an aggregate box is provided at the lower end of the conveyor belt.

The stalks or thorns can be caught by the mesh openings and transported upward along with the conveyor belt, while the Chinese prickly ash moves downward, thus separating the Chinese prickly ash and the fruit thorns.

[0016] In a further technical solution, a waste residue box is provided below the screening device for collecting the separated stalks or thorns.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0018] 1. In the present utility model, two sets of rotating roller groups rotate relative to each other to drive the Chinese prickly ash with thorns downward, and the Chinese prickly ash grains are pulled in by the rotating cylinder, realizing the separation from the thorn rods. The Chinese prickly ash grains and the thorn rods fall onto the conveyor belt, and the friction force on the conveyor belt is utilized to screen out the Chinese prickly ash and the thorn rods. The structure is simple, and the separation process of the Chinese prickly ash and the thorn rods can be continuously carried out, improving the separation rate of the Chinese prickly ash and the thorn rods.

[0019] 2. The motor four drives the cam to touch the upper and lower conveyor belts, causing the conveyor belts to vibrate. Since the Chinese prickly ash is spherical, it rolls downward under the vibration. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The fourth motor is arranged parallel to the conveyor belt 6. The output shaft of the fourth motor is eccentrically connected with a cam 61 and can touch the conveyor belt 6. By driving the cam 61 by the fourth motor to touch the upper and lower conveyor belts 6, the conveyor belt 6 is vibrated. Since the Chinese prickly ash is spherical, it rolls downward under the vibration.

[0032] In another embodiment, the guide plates 4 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the box body 1 and are inclined, so that the Chinese prickly ash with thorns automatically flows into the intersection of the two groups of rotating roller sets 3.

[0033] In another embodiment, a plurality of arc-shaped scraping teeth are provided on the rotating wheel 31, and the scraping teeth hook the Chinese prickly ash with thorns, so as to drive it to be transported downward.

[0034] In another embodiment, baffles are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 6, and an aggregate box 8 is provided at the lower end of the conveyor belt 6. The baffles can prevent impurities and Chinese prickly ash grains from falling out of the conveyor belt 6 during vibration and when the Chinese prickly ash grains roll downward.
