Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cassava processing equipment, and in particular to a conveying device for peeling cassava. Background Art

[0002] Compared with sweet potato and other potato varieties, the skin of cassava root is a two-layer structure, and the toxins of cassava are mainly concentrated in the cassava skin, which needs to be removed cleanly. The core of cassava also has more fiber and poor taste, which also needs to be removed. There are already some automated equipment that can remove the second layer of cassava skin and cassava core. The existing equipment uses a conveying device to send the cassava segment to the bottom of the peeling mechanism. In order to facilitate the fixation of the cassava core, the existing conveying device is equipped with a fixed cylinder on the conveyor belt, and the clamping piece in the cylinder is used to fix the cassava. Due to the limitation of the cylinder, the cassava is fixed to the core. , it is impossible to use the traditional vertical rotary conveyor belt, and only a horizontal rotary conveyor belt similar to that used in sushi restaurants can be used. The cylinder moves between the discharge station and the peeling station under the drive of the conveyor belt. When peeling, some cassava peels will fall into the cylinder and need to be manually taken out by workers before the cassava segments can be put in, which requires additional manpower. Therefore, a conveying device for cassava peeling is needed, which uses a chain plate conveyor belt and installs the cassava fixing cylinder on the chain plate to achieve vertical rotation, so as to facilitate the dumping of the cassava peels in the cassava fixing cylinder and reduce manpower input. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a conveying device for peeling cassava, comprising: a frame 1, a chain 2, a sprocket 3, and a conveying plate 4. The frame 1 is installed on the ground, the sprockets 3 are installed at both ends of the frame 1, and a guide rail 5 is provided between the sprockets 3; the chain 2 is installed on the two sprockets 3, and the chain 2 passes through the guide rail 5; the two sides of the conveying plate 4 are connected to the chain 2 through connecting blocks 12, and a cassava fixing cylinder 6 is installed on the upper part of the conveying plate 4; a driving motor 7 is provided on the frame 1, and the driving motor 7 is connected to the sprocket 3 through a reducer.

[0021] This conveying device is mainly used to transport cassava segments from the discharge station to the lower part of the peeling device. When the equipment is running, the worker stands in front of the frame 1 and then puts the cassava segment into the cassava fixing barrel 6. The cassava segment is fixed in the cassava fixing barrel 6 by the clamping plate 10. After the driving motor 7 rotates, the sprocket 3 is driven to rotate, and the chain 2 is driven to move at the same time. Since the conveying plate 4 is fixedly connected to the chain 2, the conveying plate 4 moves synchronously with the chain 2, so that the cassava segment moves together with the cassava fixing barrel 6. When the cassava fixing barrel 6 moves to the lower part of the peeling device, the driving motor 7 stops rotating, and the peeling device moves downward. After the position of the cassava segment is adjusted by the trumpet-shaped guide bar, the core removing tube is inserted behind the cassava segment, and the cassava segment is driven to rotate and the second layer of skin of the cassava segment is removed by the cutter. Compared with the traditional horizontal rotary conveyor belt, after the cassava peeling is completed, the cassava fixing cylinder 6 of the conveying device can be tilted 180 degrees after passing the sprocket 3, thereby pouring out the cassava peel remaining in the cassava fixing cylinder 6, reducing the manual cleaning steps and improving the degree of automation.

[0022] In the existing chain-plate conveyor belt device, the conveying plate is small in size, making it impossible to install the cassava fixing barrel 6 on the upper part thereof. For this reason, the conveying plate 4 of the present application is only connected to the outer chain plate 21, thereby increasing the interval between the conveying plates 4, so as to facilitate the installation of a wider conveying plate 4, and facilitate the installation of the entire cassava fixing barrel 6 on the conveying plate 4. The chain 2 slides in the guide rail 5, thereby providing support force to the chain 2 through the guide rail 5, so that the stability of the conveying plate 4 is guaranteed when the core removal tube is inserted into the cassava segment.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the chain 2 includes an outer link plate 21, an inner link plate 22, and a roller 23. The inner link plate 22 is located on the inner side of the outer link plate 21. The outer link plate 21 and the inner link plate 22 are connected by a pin shaft. The roller 23 is installed on the pin shaft. The entire chain 2 is formed by the mutual connection between the outer link plate 21 and the inner link plate 22, realizing the circular motion of the conveying plate 4 in the vertical direction.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the connecting block 12 extends between the outer chain plates 21 and is connected to the outer chain plates 21. In the existing chain plate conveyor belt device, the conveying plates are connected to the outer chain plates and the inner chain plates, making the conveying plate width narrow and unable to install the cassava fixing barrel 6. For this reason, the conveying plate 4 of the present application is only connected to the outer chain plates 21, thereby increasing the spacing between the conveying plates 4, so as to facilitate the installation of a wider conveying plate 4, and facilitate the installation of the entire cassava fixing barrel 6 on the conveying plate 4.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the outer periphery of the sprocket 3 is provided with a shifting tooth 8, which extends between the chain 2. The shifting tooth 8 extends into the chain 2, and the roller 23 is clamped by the groove between the shifting teeth 8. After the sprocket 3 rotates, the chain 2 can be driven to rotate to prevent the sprocket 3 and the chain 2 from sliding.

[0026] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, a slide groove 9 is provided on the inner side of the guide rail 5. The height of the slide groove 9 is the same as that of the outer link plate 21. The outer link plate 21 and the inner link plate 22 are both slidably connected to the slide groove 9. The outer link plate 21 and the inner link plate 22 are limited by the guide rail 5, which can provide supporting force for the outer link plate 21 and the inner link plate 22, so that the stability of the conveying plate 4 is guaranteed when the core removing tube is inserted into the cassava segment.

[0027] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, a clamping plate 10 is provided in the cassava fixing barrel 6, and the clamping plate 10 is connected to the cassava fixing barrel 6 through a spring push rod 11, and the clamping plate 10 is installed in the cassava fixing barrel 6 in a circular array. When the worker places the cassava segment in the cassava fixing barrel 6, the clamping plate 10 provides a thrust through the spring push rod 11 to clamp the cassava segment, so that the cassava segment and the cassava fixing barrel 6 move together.

[0028] The driving motor 7 is a servo motor, which enables the chain 2 to move in a step-by-step manner. The distance of each movement is equal to the distance between the conveying plates 4, so that the cassava fixing cylinder 6 can stop at the lower part of the peeling device. At the same time, it cooperates with the control-type induction switch to improve the accuracy of the cassava fixing cylinder 6 after stopping, making it convenient for cassava peeling.

[0029] 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.
