Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural processing machinery technology, specifically to a green walnut peeling and cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] Walnuts are a highly nutritious food. The kernels are delicious and rich in nutrients, sweet, neutral, warm, non-toxic, slightly bitter, and slightly astringent. Walnuts are sweet and warm in nature, entering the kidney, lung, and large intestine meridians. They can tonify the kidneys, strengthen the kidneys and lower back, warm the lungs and relieve asthma, and moisten the intestines to relieve constipation. They also have brain-boosting, skin-moisturizing, and anti-cancer effects, making them increasingly popular. However, when eating walnuts, the green husk must first be removed before the shell can be cracked open to extract the kernel. Due to the increasing demand for walnuts, manually shelling and cleaning them is extremely inconvenient, leading to the development of walnut washing machines. Traditionally, people use mallets to smash the walnuts and then manually separate the husk, or use knives to cut off the green husk. This method is inefficient and dangerous. Not only does the strong color of the green husk cause splattered juice that stains clothes and skin, but it also frequently results in injuries and cuts. Sometimes, improper force can even break the shell, ruining the integrity and deliciousness of the kernel. Later, people developed a peeling machine that used a roller cutter and a vibrating screen to crush and separate the walnut husks. The rollers and screens squeezed each other, crushing and separating the green husks, which improved peeling efficiency and solved the problem of manual peeling. However, even after peeling with this machine, some green husks would still remain on the walnuts, resulting in a low peeling rate. In addition, the juice produced during the peeling process would stain the surface of the walnuts black, making them unclean and requiring manual washing, which increased the workload of workers. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a green walnut peeling and cleaning machine, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A green walnut peeling and cleaning machine includes a support frame 1, on which a peeling groove 2 is provided. A peeling roller 3 is provided along the length of the peeling groove 2 in the middle. The peeling roller 3 has rotating shafts at both ends that extend through the front and rear side walls of the peeling groove 2. Several cutting blades 4 are evenly distributed around the peeling roller 3 in the circumferential direction. The cutting blades 4 are fixed to the peeling roller 3 by bolts along the tangent direction of the peeling roller 3. Several wire brush rollers 5 are arranged parallel to the peeling groove 2 around the peeling roller 3. The peeling roller 3 and the wire brush rollers 5 are driven to rotate by a motor.
[0006] The wire brush roller 5 is wound around two parallel rollers 6. The rollers 6 have rotating shafts at both ends that can move through the front and rear side walls of the peeling groove 2. There are four wire brush rollers 5.
[0007] A motor 10 is installed on the rear end of the bracket 1. A belt a9 is provided between the output shaft of the motor 10 and the rotating shaft on the rear side of the peeling roller 3. A belt b11 is provided between the output shaft of the motor 10 and the rear adjacent rotating shafts of the two adjacent rollers 6 on the lower side. A belt c13 is provided between the rear adjacent rotating shafts of the remaining adjacent rollers 6.
[0008] The peeling groove 2 has a U-shaped discharge port on its front side wall, and a U-shaped door panel 8 is correspondingly provided on the discharge port. The upper end of the door panel 8 is hinged to the front side wall of the peeling groove 2 by a hinge 7. A fixing plate 12 is hinged to the lower side of the door panel 8.

[0019] Example 1
[0020] like Figure 1-2 This embodiment provides a green walnut peeling and cleaning machine, including a support 1. The support 1 is provided with a peeling groove 2. A peeling roller 3 is provided in the middle of the peeling groove 2 along its length. The peeling roller 3 has rotating shafts at both ends that can move out of the front and rear side walls of the peeling groove 2. A plurality of cutting blades 4 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction on the peeling roller 3. The cutting blades 4 are fixed to the peeling roller 3 by bolts along the tangent direction of the peeling roller 3. A plurality of steel wire brush rollers 5 are arranged around the peeling roller 3 in the peeling groove 2 and parallel to the peeling groove 2. The peeling roller 3 and the steel wire brush rollers 5 are driven to rotate by a motor.
[0021] The wire brush roller 5 is wound around two parallel rollers 6. The rollers 6 have rotating shafts at both ends that can move through the front and rear side walls of the peeling groove 2. There are four wire brush rollers 5.
[0022] A motor 10 is installed on the rear end of the bracket 1. A belt a9 is provided between the output shaft of the motor 10 and the rotating shaft on the rear side of the peeling roller 3. A belt b11 is provided between the output shaft of the motor 10 and the rear adjacent rotating shafts of the two adjacent rollers 6 on the lower side. A belt c13 is provided between the rear adjacent rotating shafts of the remaining adjacent rollers 6.
[0023] The peeling roller 3 is driven clockwise by a motor 10 mounted on the rear side of the support 1 via a belt a9. The two wire brush rollers 5 below the peeling roller 3 are driven clockwise by the motor 10 via a belt b11. The wire brush roller 5 on the left side of the peeling roller 3 is driven to rotate by the lower left wire brush roller 5 via a belt c13, and the wire brush roller 5 on the right side of the peeling roller 3 is driven to rotate by the lower right wire brush roller 5 via a belt c13. During use, green walnuts are poured into the peeling trough 2 between the peeling roller 3 and the wire brush rollers 5. The clockwise rotation of the peeling roller and wire brush rollers agitates the green walnuts in the peeling trough. The cutting blades on the rotating peeling rollers remove the walnut skins, while any remaining skin is cleaned by the steel brushes on the wire brush rollers. Water from the water pipe above the peeling trough enters to clean the green walnuts.
[0024] The peeling groove 2 has a U-shaped discharge port on its front side wall, and a corresponding U-shaped door panel 8 is provided on the discharge port.
