Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coconut meat processing, in particular to a self-cleaning mechanism for a coconut meat crusher. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of coconut milk, coconut milk, coconut water and other products, coconut meat needs to be crushed. The crushed coconut meat has many uses. Currently, coconut meat crushing mainly relies on crushers, which include a barrel and a crushing head arranged inside the barrel. The crushing head can be arranged in a variety of ways, one of which is installed on the barrel cover and the other is installed on the barrel bottom.

[0003] Since coconut meat itself has a shorter shelf life and is easily perishable at high temperatures, particularly after being crushed, its tissue is destroyed, which accelerates the time of deterioration. Therefore, after each crushing of one or several batches of coconut meat, it is necessary to clean the crusher inside to avoid coconut meat from remaining in the crusher inside for a long time. During the crushing of the existing coconut meat crusher, the coconut meat in the crusher needs to be manually poured out and then rinsed by a manual handheld water pipe, which is troublesome and less efficient.

[0004] In view of this, a self-cleaning mechanism for a coconut meat crusher is designed, which can automatically discharge the material and perform self-cleaning after the crushing is completed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a self-cleaning mechanism for a coconut meat crusher to solve the problems described in the background technology.

[0006] The technical solution of the present utility model is achieved as follows:

[0007] A self-cleaning mechanism for a coconut meat crusher comprises a first bracket, a fourth bracket, a fifth bracket and a controller; the first bracket is provided with a mounting plate, the mounting plate is provided with a second bracket and a third bracket, a crushing barrel with an upward-facing barrel opening is rotatably mounted on the third bracket, the mounting plate is further provided with a driving mechanism for driving the barrel opening of the crushing barrel to rotate downward and upward, a crushing cutter head is provided at the inner bottom of the crushing barrel, a crushing motor connected to the crushing cutter head is provided at the outer bottom of the crushing barrel, a limiting pad is provided on the second bracket, and when the barrel opening of the crushing barrel rotates upward to the level of the barrel bottom of the crushing barrel, the side wall of the crushing barrel abuts against the limiting pad. The fourth bracket is also provided with an inclined plate, which is arranged at an angle below the crushing barrel to receive the material poured out of the crushing barrel. A water filter box is also provided at the bottom of the bottom end of the inclined plate. The upper end opening of the water filter box is used to receive the material discharged by the inclined plate. A filter screen is provided in the water filter box to separate the lower part of the water filter box into a water storage tank. A water supply pipe is also provided on the fifth bracket. The water supply pipe is also connected to a water pump, which is also connected to the water storage tank. The water supply pipe extends to the barrel mouth when the crushing barrel rotates downward to the lowest point. A cleaning nozzle for flushing the inner wall of the crushing barrel is also provided on the water supply pipe. The driving mechanism, crushing motor and water pump are electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] When the above scheme is used, the coconut meat is poured into the crushing barrel from the top of the crushing barrel through the external conveying belt, and then the crushing motor is started to drive the crushing cutter head to rotate to crush the coconut meat. After crushing for a period of time, the crushing motor is stopped, the driving mechanism works to drive the crushing barrel to rotate, the barrel opening of the crushing barrel is rotated downward to be inclined downward, and the crushed coconut meat slides out of the crushing barrel and falls into the inclined plate below. The crushed coconut meat slides along the inclined plate into the water filtering tank, and then the water pump is started to pump out the cold water pre-stored in the water storage bin (ice cubes are put into the water storage bin), and the cold water is conducted to the cleaning spray head through the water supply pipe. The cleaning spray head sprays corresponding cleaning water curtain, which rushes into the crushing barrel from the inclined barrel opening to wash the inner wall of the crushing barrel and the crushing cutter head. The residual coconut meat and the washing water after washing reflow into the water filtering tank along the inclined plate and re-enter the water storage bin through the filter screen.

[0009] After a period of washing and cleaning, the controller controls the water pump to stop, the driving mechanism works to drive the crushing barrel to rotate and reset, and the limiting pad is used to abut against the crushing barrel to prevent the crushing barrel from being excessively reset, so that the bottom of the crushing barrel is in a horizontal state, thereby reducing the vibration amount of the crushing barrel during crushing.

[0010] The device can automatically crush, discharge after crushing, and automatically clean, thereby improving the processing efficiency.

[0011] Further technical solutions are that the side wall of the crushing barrel is provided with a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is rotatably installed on the third support, and a driven wheel is further fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft. The driving mechanism is drivingly connected with the driven wheel.

[0012] Further technical solutions are that the driving mechanism comprises a servo motor and a speed reducer, the servo motor and the speed reducer are drivingly connected, the output shaft of the speed reducer is provided with a driving wheel, the driving wheel is drivingly connected with the driven wheel, and the servo motor is electrically connected with the controller.

[0013] When the above scheme is used, the servo motor drives the output shaft of the speed reducer to rotate, the output shaft of the speed reducer drives the driving wheel to rotate, the driving wheel drives the driven wheel to rotate, and the driven wheel drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The rotating shaft drives the crushing barrel to rotate. By arranging the speed reducer, the torque value can be increased, and the rotation angle of the crushing barrel can be controlled. By arranging the servo motor, the rotation angle and rotation speed of the rotating crushing barrel can be more accurately controlled.

[0014] Further technical solutions are that the driving wheel and the driven wheel are both belt pulleys, and the driving wheel and the belt pulley are drivingly connected through a belt.

[0015] When the above scheme is used, by arranging the belt pulley, when the crushing barrel is reset beyond a certain position, the relative rotation amount can be reduced by slipping between the belt and the belt pulley.

[0016] Further, the water outlet pipe is connected with the water pump.

[0017] Further, the cleaning nozzle comprises a spiral nozzle and a fan-shaped nozzle arranged on both sides of the spiral nozzle.

[0018] When the above scheme is used, the spiral nozzle is used to spray a conical water curtain for cleaning the inner wall of the crushing barrel in a large area, and the fan-shaped nozzle is used to spray a fan-shaped water curtain for cleaning the inner wall of the crushing barrel and the crushing blade head at a specific angle, so that the cleaning dead angle is avoided.

[0019] Further, the cleaning nozzle comprises a rotating nozzle.

[0020] When the above scheme is used, by selecting a suitable rotating nozzle, a suitable rotating water curtain is sprayed for cleaning the inside of the crushing barrel.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0022] 1. High degree of automation: the automatic crushing, discharging and cleaning process of coconut meat is realized, and the processing efficiency is significantly improved.

[0023] 2. Complete cleaning: a variety of nozzles (spiral nozzle and fan-shaped nozzle) are arranged, which can spray water curtains of different shapes to clean the inner wall of the crushing barrel and the crushing blade head in all directions, and the cleaning dead angle is avoided.

[0024] 3. Accurate control: the combination of a servo motor and a reducer can not only improve the torque value, but also accurately control the rotation angle and speed of the crushing barrel, and a limiting pad is arranged to abut against the crushing box to prevent it from being excessively reset and reduce the vibration amount during crushing.

[0025] 4. Reasonable structure design: the crushing barrel can be rotated to a downward inclined position after crushing, which facilitates the sliding of coconut meat and the flushing of the washing water curtain,

[0026] 5. Reuse of washing water: a water filter tank is arranged, which can filter the water in the crushed coconut meat and use the water to flush the crushing barrel. The water contains part of the coconut juice, which is cooled to prevent rapid deterioration and prevent excessive flushing of the crushed coconut meat to carry away the coconut juice on the crushed material.
