Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water chestnut flesh extraction technology, specifically a shell-flesh separation structure for cutting and extracting water chestnut flesh. Background Technology

[0002] The water chestnut shell-and-meat separation structure is a specially designed device for water chestnut processing. Its main function and purpose is to achieve rapid and efficient separation of the water chestnut shell from the flesh. The introduction of this technology has greatly simplified the water chestnut processing process and improved production efficiency.

[0003] The water chestnut shell-and-pulp separation structure typically consists of three parts: a clamping and conveying device, a cross-cutting device, and a shelling device. During operation, the water chestnut is first placed on the clamping plate of the clamping and conveying device and conveyed to the cross-cutting device via a transmission chain. A circular toothed blade cuts off the curved corners on both sides. Then, the water chestnut enters the shelling device, where a pair of adjustable-gap squeezing rollers use a tearing force to separate the pulp from the shell. The working principle of this structure is based on the difference in mechanical properties between the water chestnut shell and pulp, achieving separation by applying external force. Its operation is simple and easy to master, and it demonstrates advantages of high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and intelligence in practical applications.

[0004] However, in actual use, most of the above-mentioned devices cannot control the falling direction of the water chestnuts when peeling them, which makes it easy for the water chestnuts to fall accidentally outside the device. In view of this, we propose a shell-meat separation structure for peeling and extracting water chestnuts. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shell-meat separation structure for cutting and extracting water chestnuts, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a shell-meat separation structure for cutting and extracting water chestnuts, comprising a water storage tank, a crushing box fixedly installed on the outside of the water storage tank, a hopper fixedly installed on the outside of the crushing box, and a crushing assembly provided on the outside of the hopper, the crushing assembly comprising:

[0007] An asynchronous motor is fixedly installed on the outside of the compaction box, and a connecting block is fixedly installed on the output end of the asynchronous motor;

[0008] A rolling roller is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting block, an arc block is fixedly installed on the inside of the rolling box, and an infrared detection device is fixedly installed on the outside of the arc block.

[0009] A baffle plate is fixedly installed inside the water storage tank, an inclined block is fixedly installed inside the water storage tank, an opening is opened on the outside of the water storage tank, and a conveying module is provided on the outside of the water storage tank.

[0010] Preferably, multiple sets of the arc blocks and infrared detection devices are provided, and the multiple sets of arc blocks and infrared detection devices are mirrored on the inner side of the compaction box with the vertical centerline in the front-back direction of the compaction box as the mirror axis.

[0011] Preferably, the outer side of the arc block is concave arc-shaped, multiple sets of the arc blocks have discharge ports, the infrared detection device is electrically connected to the asynchronous motor, the rolling roller is arranged between multiple sets of arc blocks, and the inner side of the water storage tank is filled with pure water.

[0012] Preferably, a cleaning assembly is provided inside the compaction box. The cleaning assembly includes a triangular connecting plate. The triangular connecting plate is fixedly installed inside the compaction box. One end of a threaded spring rod is fixedly installed on the outside of the triangular connecting plate. A long strip plate is fixedly installed on the other end of the threaded spring rod. A cleaning scraper is fixedly installed on the outside of the long strip plate.

[0013] Preferably, multiple sets of threaded spring rods and cleaning scrapers are provided, and the multiple sets of threaded spring rods are linearly arrayed at equal intervals on the outside of the triangular connecting plate, and the multiple sets of cleaning scrapers are mirrored on the outside of the long strip plate with the vertical center line in the front-back direction of the long strip plate as the mirror axis.

[0014] Preferably, the triangular connecting plate, threaded spring rod, long strip plate and cleaning scraper are disposed on the outside of the rolling roller.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a shell-meat separation structure for cutting and extracting water chestnuts, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This water chestnut shelling and fruit extraction structure, in order to further improve the shelling effect, is equipped with a crushing component. This component, together with an asynchronous motor, drives the connecting block and the crushing roller to rotate, providing power for crushing the water chestnut. Thus, the arc block effectively guides the water chestnut to be crushed in a suitable space. At the same time, with the help of infrared detection equipment, the position and state of the water chestnut can be detected, realizing precise control of the crushing process, thereby further improving the efficiency and quality of water chestnut shelling and fruit extraction.

[0017] 2. The shell-and-meat separation structure for cutting and extracting water chestnuts is equipped with a cleaning component to clean the surface of the crushing roller while crushing the water chestnuts. This component works with a triangular connecting plate inside the crushing box as a base, which in turn pushes a long strip plate with a threaded spring rod. This causes the cleaning scraper on the long strip plate to clean the outside of the crushing roller. When the crushing roller is contaminated with impurities or residual water chestnut shells during the crushing process, the cleaning scraper, under the action of the threaded spring rod, can always maintain contact with the surface of the crushing roller, effectively removing the impurities.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a shell and flesh separation structure for cutting and extracting water chestnuts, including a water storage tank 1, a crushing box 2 fixedly installed on the outside of the water storage tank 1, and a hopper 3 fixedly installed on the outside of the crushing box 2.

[0026] In one embodiment of this utility model, a crushing assembly 4 is provided on the outside of the hopper 3. The crushing assembly 4 includes an asynchronous motor 41. An asynchronous motor 41 is fixedly installed on the outside of the crushing box 2. A connecting block 42 is fixedly installed on the output end of the asynchronous motor 41. A crushing roller 43 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting block 42. An arc block 44 is fixedly installed on the inside of the crushing box 2. An infrared detection device 45 is fixedly installed on the outside of the arc block 44. A baffle plate 46 is fixedly installed on the inside of the water storage tank 1. An inclined block 47 is fixedly installed on the inside of the water storage tank 1. An opening 48 is opened on the outside of the water storage tank 1. A conveying module 49 is provided on the outside of the water storage tank 1. Multiple sets of arc blocks 44 and infrared detection devices 45 are provided. The multiple sets of arc blocks 44 and infrared detection devices 45 are mirror images of the vertical centerline of the crushing box 2 in the front-back direction. The arc blocks 44 are concave arc-shaped on the outside. Multiple sets of arc blocks 44 have discharge ports. Infrared detection... The device 45 is electrically connected to the asynchronous motor 41. The crushing roller 43 is set between multiple sets of arc blocks 44. The water tank 1 is filled with pure water. First, the ridges with their two curved corners cut are put into the hopper 3, and then fall into the crushing box 2. At the same time, the asynchronous motor 41 on the crushing box 2 drives the connecting block 42 and the crushing roller 43 to rotate, providing power for crushing the ridges. This, together with the multiple sets of arc blocks 44, effectively guides the ridges to be crushed in a suitable space. At the same time, the arc blocks 44 and the infrared detection device 45 detect the position and state of the ridges, thereby controlling the asynchronous motor 41 to achieve precise control of the crushing process. At the same time, the baffle plate 46 and the inclined block 47 in the water tank 1 can perform preliminary separation and guidance of the crushed ridges, so that the heavier pulp falls to the bottom of the water and slides onto the surface of the inclined block 47 to the outside of the conveying module 49 and is conveyed out. The lighter shells float on the water surface, and the baffle plate 46 prevents the shells from being conveyed synchronously.

[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, a cleaning component 5 is provided inside the compaction box 2. The cleaning component 5 includes a triangular connecting plate 51. The triangular connecting plate 51 is fixedly installed inside the compaction box 2. One end of a threaded spring rod 52 is fixedly installed on the outside of the triangular connecting plate 51. A long strip plate 53 is fixedly installed on the other end of the threaded spring rod 52. A cleaning scraper 54 is fixedly installed on the outside of the long strip plate 53. Multiple sets of threaded spring rods 52 and cleaning scrapers 54 are provided, and the multiple sets of threaded spring rods 52 are linearly arrayed at equal intervals on the outside of the triangular connecting plate 51. The multiple sets of cleaning scrapers 54 are positioned with the vertical centerline of the long strip plate 53 in the front-back direction as the reference point. A mirror shaft is mirrored on the outside of the long strip plate 53. The triangular connecting plate 51, the threaded spring rod 52, the long strip plate 53, and the cleaning scraper 54 are set on the outside of the rolling roller 43. The triangular connecting plate 51 inside the rolling box 2 serves as a base, thereby cooperating with the threaded spring rod 52 to push the long strip plate 53. This causes the cleaning scraper 54 on the long strip plate 53 to clean the outside of the rolling roller 43. When the rolling roller 43 is contaminated with impurities or residual diamond shells during the rolling process, the cleaning scraper 54, under the action of the threaded spring rod 52, can always maintain contact with the surface of the rolling roller 43, effectively scraping away the impurities.

[0028] Working principle: First, the cut-off corners of the water chestnuts are fed into the hopper 3, falling into the crushing box 2. Simultaneously, the asynchronous motor 41 on the crushing box 2 drives the connecting block 42 and the crushing roller 43 to rotate, providing power for crushing the water chestnuts. Multiple sets of arc blocks 44 effectively guide the water chestnuts to be crushed within a suitable space. The arc blocks 44 and infrared detection equipment 45 detect the position and state of the water chestnuts, thereby controlling the asynchronous motor 41 to achieve precise control of the crushing process. Further, the baffle plate 46 and inclined block 47 in the water tank 1 can perform preliminary separation and guidance of the crushed water chestnuts, allowing the heavier pulp to be separated. The fruit shells fall to the bottom of the water and slide onto the surface of the inclined block 47 to the outside of the conveying module 49, where they are conveyed out. The lighter fruit shells float on the water surface. The baffle plate 46 prevents the fruit shells from being conveyed synchronously. In addition, the triangular connecting plate 51 in the crushing box 2 serves as a base, thereby working with the threaded spring rod 52 to push the long plate 53. This causes the cleaning scraper 54 on the long plate 53 to clean the outside of the crushing roller 43. When the crushing roller 43 is contaminated with impurities or residual water chestnut shells during the crushing process, the cleaning scraper 54, under the action of the threaded spring rod 52, can always maintain contact with the surface of the crushing roller 43, effectively scraping away the impurities.

[0029] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
