Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of macadamia nut processing equipment, and in particular to a macadamia nut kernel cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Macadamia nuts, also known as macadamia nuts, are one of the most popular nuts because of their rich nutrition and good taste. In macadamia nut processing companies, in addition to macadamia nuts sold in shells, some macadamia nuts are sold in the form of kernels. After the macadamia nuts are shelled and kernels are removed by processing equipment on the production line, the kernels need to be cleaned. Since the kernels of macadamia nuts are easy to split into two halves, spraying and bubble cleaning methods are often used during cleaning. For example, the Chinese patent application number 202123351013.8 discloses a matsutake bubble cleaning machine, which includes a cleaning tank, a bubble generator, and a washing machine. A pool, a lifting pool, a recovery pool, a conveyor belt, a feeding device, a drying device, a first spraying device and a second spraying device are formed; a feeding port is formed at one end of the cleaning pool, and the other end of the cleaning pool is connected to one end of the lifting pool. The lifting pool is tilted between the cleaning pool and the recovery pool, and a recovery port is formed at one end of the recovery pool away from the lifting pool. The drying device is arranged above the recovery pool, the conveyor belt is arranged inside the cleaning pool, the lifting pool and the recovery pool, the bubble generating pool is arranged inside the cleaning pool, a drainage gap is formed between the outer wall of the bubble generating pool and the inner wall of the cleaning pool, and a bubble generating device is arranged below the part of the conveyor belt located inside the bubble generating pool. Macadamia kernels can be cleaned using this equipment. However, in actual use, in addition to impurities such as sawdust that float on the water surface, the kernels also contain impurities such as dust and pebbles that easily sink in water. After the cleaning equipment has been used for a period of time, impurities such as dust and pebbles tend to settle at the bottom of the pool. Since the conveyor belt is fixed in the cleaning pool, the bottom of the pool is difficult to clean. Therefore, a macadamia kernel cleaning equipment is needed, in which the conveyor belt is installed on a flip bracket. When the sink needs to be cleaned, the flip bracket can be lifted by a telescopic rod to facilitate cleaning the bottom of the sink, increase the cleaning speed, and ensure the hygiene of the cleaning device itself. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the present application proposes a macadamia nut kernel cleaning device, whose conveyor belt is installed on a flip bracket. When the sink needs to be cleaned, the flip bracket can be lifted by a telescopic rod to facilitate cleaning the bottom of the sink, increase the cleaning speed, and ensure the hygiene of the cleaning device itself.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a macadamia nut kernel cleaning device, comprising: a water trough 1, a plate chain conveyor belt 2, a flip bracket 3, and a telescopic rod 4. The water trough 1 is installed on the ground, and a connecting bracket 5 is provided on one side of the water trough 1; rollers 6 are provided at both ends of the flip bracket 3, baffles 7 are provided on both sides of the flip bracket 3, and guide grooves are provided on the baffles 7. The plate chain conveyor belt 2 is installed between the rollers 6, and the side of the plate chain conveyor belt 2 is slidably installed in the guide groove; the flip bracket 3 is placed in the water trough 1, and one end of the flip bracket 3 is hinged to the connecting bracket 5, and the middle part of the flip bracket 3 is connected to the outside of the water trough 1 through the telescopic rod 4.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, when washing macadamia kernels, the kernels are poured into a water tank 1. Driven by the water flow, the kernels move from left to right. After being swirled by bubbles and sprayed by a nozzle 11, impurities attached to the outer surface of the kernels are washed away. The kernels are then carried by a plate chain conveyor belt 2, elevated, and rinsed again with clean water using a second spray pipe 13. The kernels are then discharged from the right side of a tilting bracket 3, dried, and packaged for sale. The impact of the bubbles and the nozzle 11 is relatively small, making it less likely that the kernels will separate, ensuring the kernels are in good condition when sold, thereby increasing their selling price.

[0024] After cleaning for a period of time, impurities are easily deposited on the bottom of the water tank 1. At this time, the telescopic rod 4 is extended by compressed air, so that the flip bracket 3 and the plate chain conveyor belt 2 are lifted, so that there is enough space to clean the bottom of the water tank 1, improve the cleaning speed, ensure the hygiene of the cleaning device itself, and reduce the probability of impurities entering the circulation pump and clogging the nozzle 11.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the baffles 7 are interconnected by multiple cross bars 8, which improves the overall structural strength between the flip bracket 3 and the baffle 7, so that after the telescopic rod 4 is pushed, the flip bracket 3 can be lifted together with the plate chain conveyor belt 2, making it easier to clean the bottom of the water tank 1.

[0026] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, an aeration pipe 9 is provided on the flip bracket 3. The aeration pipe 9 is located between the plate chain conveyor belts 2 and is connected to a high-pressure air source through an air pipe. The air pipe passes through the baffle 7 and is connected to the aeration pipe 9. After the compressed air enters the aeration pipe 9, it is evenly sprayed out, thereby forming bubbles in the water tank 1, causing the macadamia kernels in the water tank 1 to tumble and causing impurities attached to the macadamia kernels to fall off.

[0027] Specifically, a first spray pipe 10 and a second spray pipe 13 are provided on the upper part of the baffle 7. A plurality of spray heads 11 are provided on the first spray pipe 10 and the second spray pipe 13. The spray heads 11 are directed toward the upper part of the plate chain conveyor belt 2. The water flow sprayed by the spray heads 11 can wash away impurities attached to the macadamia kernels, ensuring that the macadamia kernels are clean.

[0028] Specifically, the first spray pipe 10 is connected to the bottom of the water tank 1 through the circulation pump 14, and the second spray pipe 13 is connected to the tap water pipe. The first spray pipe 10 and the second spray pipe 13 are respectively connected to the circulation pump 14 and the tap water pipe through a hose. The hose can undergo corresponding phase changes when the flip bracket 3 is flipped to ensure the smooth flipping of the flip bracket 3. After the macadamia nut kernels are cleaned, clean water is introduced through the second spray pipe 13 to rinse them once, thereby improving the cleanliness of the macadamia nut kernels and improving the quality of the kernels. A filter is provided at the connection between the circulation pump 14 and the bottom of the water tank 1, which can reduce the probability of the nozzle 11 being blocked.

[0029] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a drive motor 12 is provided on the upper part of the flip bracket 3, and the drive motor 12 is connected to the roller 6 on the upper part of the flip bracket 3 through a reducer, so that the plate chain conveyor belt 2 circulates on the flip bracket 3, thereby driving the macadamia nut kernels to move in an orderly manner.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, the telescopic rod 4 is a pneumatic telescopic rod, which is connected to the high-pressure air source through an air valve. Since the aeration pipe 9 also uses compressed air, the telescopic rod 4 is a pneumatic telescopic rod and can use compressed air as power to achieve the flipping of the flip bracket 3.

[0031] Specifically, an overflow trough 15 is provided at the upper part of one side of the water tank 1. Since the second spray pipe 13 is connected to the tap water pipe, the water level in the water tank 1 will continue to rise. Therefore, the overflow trough 15 is provided to drain excess water. A sewage valve 16 is provided at the lower part of one side of the water tank 1 to discharge sewage and impurities when cleaning the bottom of the water tank 1.

[0032] Of course, the present application may have many other implementations. Based on the present implementation, other implementations obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without any creative work are all within the scope of protection of the present application.
