[0002] Cotton seed processing is to remove the residual lint on the surface of cotton seeds, so as to facilitate seeding and make the seeds more likely to germinate.

[0003] At present, the main cotton seed de-carding methods are dry grinding, flame and acid.

[0004] The dry grinding method removes the short lint on the surface of cotton seeds through mutual friction between the seeds, and has the advantages of simple operation and low cost, but has the disadvantage of uneven de-carding effect and easy damage to the cotton seeds.

[0005] The flame method burns the short lint on the surface of cotton seeds, and has the advantages of fast de-carding speed and suitability for large-scale production, but has the disadvantages of possible damage to the cotton seeds and high energy consumption.

[0006] The acid method first soaks the cotton seeds in acid, then removes the acid on the surface of the cotton seeds through a centrifugal machine, and finally dries the cotton seeds using a dryer, and has the advantages of complete de-carding and smooth surface of the cotton seeds, but has the disadvantages of chemical waste liquid treatment, complex operation and high cost.

[0007] In the acid de-carding method, under the premise of reducing the acid consumption, the same de-carding effect is achieved, the production cost is reduced, the pollution of acid waste liquid is reduced, and the reduction of acid consumption under the premise of meeting the de-carding effect is the goal that the technical personnel constantly explore and pursue.

[0008] The applicant proposes a winnowing device, which can remove the cotton shells and impurities in the pretreated cotton seeds, and screen out the full cotton seeds, and the screened full cotton seeds are subjected to acid treatment, and since the cotton shells and impurities have been removed, the acid consumption is reduced, and the purpose of reducing the acid consumption is achieved.

[0014] As a further improvement, the wind channel horizontal segment (62) is in a square cross section, and the side length of the wind channel horizontal segment (62) is the same as the short side length of the air outlet (7).

[0015] As an improvement, a material box (8) is further arranged, the material box (8) is provided with a discharge opening A (13), the discharge opening A (13) is arranged above the air outlet (7), and after materials in the material box (8) are discharged from the discharge opening A (13), the materials can be winnowed under the action of air of the air outlet (7).

[0016] In actual use, the cotton seeds pre-de-fuzzed are discharged from the discharge opening of the material box, vertically fall, pass through the air outlet of the wind channel, and are blown to a far place by the air of the air outlet to realize the winnowing of the cotton seeds, wherein the relatively light impurities or cotton shells are collected at a relatively near place, and the relatively heavy cotton seeds are collected at a relatively near place, so that the cotton seeds are winnowed, the relatively heavy cotton seeds are generally full, the wind blowing distance is relatively near, the full cotton seeds are collected at a relatively near place, the relatively light cotton seeds or cotton shells are blown to a relatively far distance by the wind, and the impurities are collected at a relatively far place, so that the full cotton seeds are screened out through the winnowing.

[0030] The horizontal stirring mechanism (6) comprises a horizontal pipe body, a stirring shaft is arranged in the pipe body, an inlet and an outlet are arranged on the pipe body, the inlet is arranged below the discharge port A (13) and can collect the material selected by the air outlet (7), an acid liquid nozzle (10) is arranged on the horizontal stirring mechanism (4), the acid liquid nozzle (10) adds acid liquid into the pipe body of the horizontal stirring mechanism (4),

[0032] After the material is discharged from the discharge port A (13) of the material box (8), the material is collected into the horizontal stirring mechanism (6) by the air selection of the air outlet (7), is mixed with acid liquid, enters the vertical stirring mechanism to fully mix the cotton seeds and the acid liquid, and is finally discharged from the discharge port B (20) of the vertical stirring mechanism.

[0033] As an improvement, a drying roller (19) is arranged, and the material in the vertical stirring mechanism enters the drying roller (19) through the discharge port B (20).

[0034] In actual use, the cotton seeds produced by the ginning factory are first subjected to pre-doffing treatment, the cotton seeds with a down content of about 16% are defatted to cotton seeds with a down content of 5%-7% by dry grinding, and the cotton seeds with a down content of 5%-7% are stored in the material box. After being discharged from the material box, the full cotton seeds are collected together by the air selection mechanism, and the impurities and other useless things are removed.

[0041] This utility model has the advantages of simple structure and good performance.

[0042] The pre-delinted cottonseeds are discharged from the outlet of the feed box and fall vertically through the air outlet of the air duct.

[0043] Pre-delinted cottonseed refers to cottonseed with a down content of approximately 16% that has been delinted to 5%-7% through a dry milling process. In other words, this air-separation mechanism performs air separation on the dry-milled cottonseed, resulting in a down content between 5% and 7%.

[0044] Because the air outlet of the air duct has a semi-circular arc track at the front, the airflow changes when it enters the arc section after passing through the horizontal section of the air duct. As a result, the airflow velocity at different horizontal levels is different when it exits the air outlet, thus achieving a better air separation effect.

[0047] In this embodiment, the distance between the end of the bristles (3) and the protrusion (1) is between 2mm and 30mm.

[0048] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft of the stirring brush is coaxial with the cylinder.

[0049] In this embodiment, a motor B (21) is provided, which drives the rotating shaft of the stirring brush to rotate.

[0050] In this embodiment, a horizontal stirring mechanism (4) is provided. The horizontal stirring mechanism (4) includes a horizontal tube body with a stirring shaft inside. The tube body has an inlet and an outlet. The outlet is connected to the material inlet of the cylinder. The horizontal stirring mechanism (4) is provided with an acid spray nozzle (10). The acid spray nozzle (10) adds acid to the tube body of the horizontal stirring mechanism (4).

[0051] In actual use: the cotton seeds that have undergone preliminary delinting enter the horizontal stirring mechanism (4), and acid is added in the horizontal stirring mechanism (4). The seeds are initially stirred and mixed through the horizontal stirring mechanism (4), and enter the cylinder of the stirring device from the outlet of the horizontal stirring mechanism (4). The cotton seeds and acid are fully mixed through the interaction of the rotating stirring brush and the protrusions on the inner surface of the cylinder. Finally, the seeds are discharged from the discharge port B (20) at the bottom of the cylinder to the drying drum for drying.

[0052] Cottonseed that has undergone preliminary delinting refers to cottonseed with a down content of about 16% that has been delinted to a down content of 5%-7% by dry grinding. That is, this air separation mechanism performs air separation on the dry-ground cottonseed, and the down content obtained by air separation is between 5%-7%. The cottonseed with a down content between 5%-7% is sent into the horizontal stirring mechanism (4) and acid is sprayed to mix the cottonseed and the acid.

After the material in the material box (8) is discharged from the discharge port A (13), it can be air-separated by the wind force of the air outlet (7).

[0057] In actual use, the pre-delinted cottonseeds are discharged from the outlet of the feed box and fall vertically through the air outlet of the air duct. Under the action of the air force at the air outlet, the lighter impurities or cotton hulls are blown to a farther distance for collection, while the heavier cottonseeds are collected at a closer distance, thus achieving cottonseed air separation.

[0058] Pre-delinted cottonseed refers to cottonseed with a down content of approximately 16% that has been delinted to 5%-7% through a dry milling process. In other words, this air-separation mechanism performs air separation on the dry-milled cottonseed, resulting in a down content between 5% and 7%.
