DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0025] The present embodiment provides an apple juice production fruit core and pulp separation device, as shown in the figure, the separation device comprises a sawtooth scraper 3 and a connecting column 2 installed at the lower end of the sawtooth scraper 3, and the end of the connecting column 2 away from the sawtooth scraper 3 is rotatably connected to a cylindrical handle shell 1. Figures 1-7

[0026] The connecting column 2 is provided with a pushing mechanism 4.

[0027] The inside of the connecting column 2 is provided with a receiving cavity, and a guiding rail frame 44 is installed opposite in the receiving cavity, the connecting column 2 is provided with a connecting disc 43, the connecting disc 43 is symmetrically installed with a guiding slider 431 for sliding installation with the guiding rail frame 44, the upper end of the connecting disc 43 is installed with a fixed rod 42 for movable insertion with the connecting column 2, the upper end of the fixed rod 42 is provided with a push plate 41, the lower end of the connecting disc 43 is provided with a first spring 46, a shaping rod 45 for movable insertion with the fixed rod 42 is fixedly installed in the receiving cavity, and the first spring 46 is sleeved outside the shaping rod 45.

[0028] ​Specifically, the sawtooth scraper 3 is a common sawtooth-shaped tool for scraping apple cores in life. By mounting the sawtooth scraper 3 and the connecting column 2 on the cylindrical handle shell 1, using the accommodation cavities opened in the connecting column 2 to respectively arrange the fixing rods 42, the connecting disc 43, the guide rail frame 44, the shaping rod 45 and the first spring 46, when the sawtooth scraper 3 penetrates the apple core area, the push plate 41 is pressed to move close to the connecting column 2, and the fixing rod 42 is pushed into the accommodation cavity. When the push plate 41 is pushed to the deepest position, it is limited by the structure on the guide slider 431 to form clamping fixation. When the sawtooth scraper 3 is pulled out from the penetration of the apple, the push plate 41 is reset by the first spring 46 to clean the core located at the sawtooth scraper 3.

[0029] The connecting column 2 movably inserts the reset column 21, and the connecting column 2 is provided with a limiting groove 23. The reset column 21 is sleeved with a limiting ring 22 matched with the limiting groove 23.

[0030] More specifically, the limiting groove 23 opened on the connecting column 2 is mainly used for limiting the limiting ring 22 sleeved on the reset column 21, so that the reset column 21 can limit the maximum moving distance when being pushed out by the positioning block 432.

[0031] The end of the guide slider 431 close to the reset column 21 is provided with a second spring 433. The guide slider 431 movably inserts a positioning block 432. One end of the second spring 433 is fixedly connected with the positioning block 432. The connecting column 2 is provided with a through hole corresponding to the reset column 21. The through hole is matched with the positioning block 432.

[0032] It should be noted that the second spring 433 inside the guide slider 431 is connected with the positioning block 432. When the positioning block 432 moves to the through hole opened on the connecting column 2, the reset column 21 is pushed out, thereby forming clamping fixation, which is used for keeping the positioning of the push plate 41.

[0033] The cylindrical handle shell 1 is provided with a button 14. The inside of the cylindrical handle shell 1 is annularly distributed with a plurality of positioning vertical rods 13. The micro motor 12 is arranged between the plurality of positioning vertical rods 13. The output end of the micro motor 12 is fixedly connected with the lower end of the connecting column 2. The inside of the cylindrical handle shell 1 is provided with a limiting plate 11. The output end of the micro motor 12 penetrates the limiting plate 11.

[0034] It is worth mentioning that the micro motor 12 is connected with the button 14 through the starting switch of the circuit board. When the sawtooth scraper 3 penetrates the apple to remove the core, the push plate 41 is pressed to drive the micro motor 12 to rotate one circle with the connecting column 2, so that the scraped area is separated from the apple, without manually holding the cylindrical handle shell 1 to rotate the sawtooth scraper 3 one circle, thereby saving the labor intensity of the staff.

[0035] In use, by designing the connecting column 2 on the basis of the traditional sawtooth doctor 3 body, and using the output end of the micro motor 12 inside the cylindrical handle shell 1 to sequentially penetrate the limiting plate 11, the cylindrical handle shell 1 is finally connected with the lower end of the connecting column 2. After the device is inserted into the core area of the apple, the staff only needs to press the button 14 to start the micro motor 12 to rotate the connecting column 2 and the sawtooth doctor 3 for one revolution, so as to separate the core area from the whole apple. At this moment, the sawtooth doctor 3 is pulled out from the insertion of the apple, and the core and part of the flesh remaining in the concave arc of the sawtooth doctor 3 will be pushed up by the expansion of the first spring 46, so that the remaining core is separated from the sawtooth doctor 3, without the need for manual use of tools to pick out, which not only saves additional operation, but also improves the overall efficiency of the coring.

[0036] The above is only the preferred specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, according to the technical scheme and concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacement or change, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
