Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of tomato peeling equipment, specifically a tomato peeling and dicing production line. Background Technology

[0002] Tomato sauce is a concentrated paste made from fresh tomatoes. It possesses the unique flavor of tomatoes and is a popular condiment that enhances color, acidity, umami, and aroma. It is made from ripe red tomatoes through crushing, pulping, concentration, bottling, and sterilization. To improve the quality of tomato sauce, the tomatoes need to be peeled before crushing and pulping to prevent the tomato skin from affecting the taste.

[0003] Existing equipment for peeling large quantities of tomatoes mainly involves squeezing the tomatoes or damaging their surface with a toothed roller brush, followed by rubbing the tomato skin with several rubber rollers or brush rollers to separate the skin from the tomato. However, this method of peeling by friction alone not only causes significant damage to the tomatoes but also easily leads to peeling failure. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a tomato peeling and dicing production line to solve the problem that the lack of restrictions on the distribution of promotional materials leads to the inability to distribute them on demand.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a tomato peeling and dicing production line, including a peeling section, a dicing section, a cutting section located in front of the peeling section, and a blanching section.

The peeling rollers are connected to a second driving mechanism for driving the peeling rollers to rotate.

[0006] The above structure has the following beneficial effects:

[0007] 1. By adding an incision section and a blanching section before peeling, an incision can be made on the outer skin of the tomato before peeling, followed by blanching. This process separates the tomato skin from the flesh, making it easier to peel later.

[0008] 2. The spraying mechanism can spray ice water onto blanched tomatoes, causing the tomato skin to contract due to the cold, which further facilitates the separation of the skin from the flesh.

[0009] 3. The skin-removing roller pair rubs the tomatoes entering the skin-removing box, thereby peeling the skin of the tomatoes, which can quickly realize the effect of batch peeling of tomatoes and improve the production efficiency.

Through such an arrangement, on the one hand, it can ensure that the tomatoes can be stably cut by the first cutting knife, and on the other hand, it can also avoid that the cutting depth of the tomatoes is too deep, which can cause serious damage in subsequent blanching, peeling and other processes, thereby reducing the waste of tomatoes.
