Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coconut meat processing, in particular to a coconut meat continuous screening device. Background Art

[0002] During the production of coconut juice and coconut nut beverages, some coconut meat that is not processed in time is collected in separate boxes and then refrigerated for storage. In order to reduce the volume occupied by the coconut meat during storage and increase the storage capacity within the storage boxes, the continuously transported coconut meat needs to be sorted, and the larger round or semi-circular coconut meat is picked out and then cut into multiple pieces. This can reduce the volume occupied by the coconut meat in the storage boxes and increase the storage density.

[0003] The current screening method mainly relies on manual sorting. Workers visually judge the size of the coconut meat, select the larger ones, cut them, and put them back on the conveyor belt. When the production volume is large, multiple workers are required. This is not only labor-intensive but also has low screening efficiency. It is an inefficient use of human resources and increases enterprise costs.

[0004] In view of this, a coconut meat continuous screening device is designed, which can automatically identify the size of coconut meat and screen out larger coconut meat for cutting and storage under the responsibility of one person, thereby improving the screening efficiency, releasing redundant workers to perform more valuable work, and reducing enterprise costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a coconut meat continuous screening device to solve the problems described in the background technology.

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

[0007] A coconut meat continuous screening device includes a frameless conveyor belt and side frames arranged on both sides of the outside of the frameless conveyor belt, a horizontal frame is horizontally arranged on the side frames, the horizontal frame is arranged directly above the frameless conveyor belt, an angular baffle is also provided directly above the frameless conveyor belt, the baffle is arranged below the horizontal frame, and the top of the baffle is also connected to the horizontal frame through a lifting and adjusting mechanism, the corner of the baffle is arranged upstream of the frameless conveyor belt, the end of the baffle away from the corner extends to the downstream edge of the frameless conveyor belt, and brackets are also provided on both sides of the outside of the frameless conveyor belt, an inclined material guide pipe is fixed on the bracket, the upper end feed port of the material guide pipe extends to the intersection of the end of the baffle and the edge of the frameless conveyor belt, the lower end pipe mouth of the material guide pipe extends to the outside of the frameless conveyor belt, and the material guide pipe is also provided with a cutting mechanism for cutting material passing through the inside of the material guide pipe.

[0008] When using the above scheme, coconut meat is transported from upstream to downstream along the frameless conveyor belt. The distance between the bottom of the baffle and the surface of the frameless conveyor belt is adjusted by the lifting and adjusting mechanism. The coconut meat that has been broken into pieces is relatively flat and low in height, and can pass through the bottom of the baffle. The relatively intact coconut meat is circular or semicircular and high in height, and will be blocked by the baffle. It will fall after moving to the edge of the frameless conveyor belt along the baffle. The fallen coconut meat then enters the feed inlet of the guide pipe and, when passing through the guide pipe inside, is cut into multiple pieces by the cutting mechanism and discharged.

[0009] Workers only need to regularly replace the storage frame placed at the outlet of the guide pipe. At the same time, when some coconut meat of transitional size is opened at the baffle, workers can also manually handle it in time.

[0010] By setting the lifting and adjusting mechanism, the height of the baffle can be adjusted in time according to the size of coconut meat in different batches, making the practicability and adaptability of the device better.

[0011] After using this device, the size of coconut meat can be quickly and automatically identified with one person, and the coconut meat with larger volume can be screened out for cutting and storage, thereby improving the screening efficiency and the utilization efficiency of human resources.

[0012] A further technical solution is that the lifting and adjusting mechanism includes a sliding rod fixed to the top of the baffle, which is connected to the horizontal frame by sliding up and down. The top of the baffle is also rotatably connected to a screw rod, which is screwed to the horizontal frame. When the screw rod rotates, the screw rod moves up and down on the horizontal frame.

[0013] When the above solution is used, the screw rod is adjusted so that the screw rod rises or falls on the horizontal frame, thereby pulling the baffle plate up or down to adjust the height of the baffle plate.

[0014] A further technical solution is that a connecting rod is fixed on the baffle, the connecting rod and part of the baffle form a triangular structure, the sliding rod is fixed on the top of the connecting rod, and the screw rod is rotatably connected to the top of the connecting rod.

[0015] When the above solution is used, the structural strength of the baffle can be enhanced by providing a connecting rod.

[0016] A further technical solution is that the cutting mechanism includes a motor fixed on the outer wall of the material guide tube, and also includes a rotating shaft arranged in the material guide tube, one end of the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the material guide tube, and the other end of the rotating shaft is rotatably passed through the side wall of the material guide tube and extends outward to be connected with the output shaft of the motor, and a rotating cutter head is also fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft.

[0017] When using the above solution, after the coconut meat enters the feed port of the guide tube, it slides along the inside of the guide tube toward the discharge port. When passing through the rotating cutter head, the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, and the rotating shaft drives the rotating cutter head to rotate. The rotating cutter head cuts the coconut meat passing through into multiple petals.

[0018] A further technical solution is that the number of the rotary cutter heads does not exceed two, and the two rotary cutter heads are spaced apart from each other.

[0019] When using the above solution, use at most two rotating cutter heads to avoid cutting the coconut meat into flakes or chunks, and to avoid overflowing of the coconut meat due to excessive cutting.

[0020] A further technical solution is that the horizontal frame is a horizontal plate structure, the sliding rod is slidably arranged in the horizontal frame, and the screw rod is threadedly arranged in the horizontal frame.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] 1. High degree of automation: Through the combination of borderless conveyor belt and baffle, automatic identification and screening of coconut meat are realized, reducing the complexity of manual operation.

[0023] 2. Strong adaptability: The design of the lifting and adjusting mechanism enables the device to be flexibly adjusted according to the size of the coconut meat, which improves the practicality of the equipment and its adaptability to different batches of coconut meat.

[0024] 3. High efficiency: A single operator can quickly complete the identification and screening of coconut meat size, effectively improving the screening efficiency and the utilization efficiency of human resources.

[0025] 4. Easy to maintain: Workers only need to replace the storage frame and handle the coconut meat of transitional size at regular intervals, which simplifies the maintenance process of the equipment.

[0026] 5. Cutting and conveying integration: The combination of the guide tube and the cutting mechanism enables the larger coconut meat screened out to be cut immediately and conveyed to the storage frame. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
