Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, in particular to a drum structure for potato (such as potato, sweet potato, cassava, etc.) starch processing, specifically a drum structure based on modular T-shaped nail combination, aiming to solve the problems of complex manufacturing, high maintenance cost and whole replacement of local damage of the existing drum structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] The existing potato rubbing machine drum usually adopts A-shaped groove structure, and clamping strips and blades are installed in the groove to achieve potato rubbing. However, this structure has the following defects:
[0003] Complex manufacturing process: A-shaped groove needs to be precisely machined to fit the clamping strip, and the assembly process of the clamping strip and the blade is complicated;
[0004] High cost: The clamping strip and the blade need to be made of high-hardness wear-resistant material, resulting in high replacement cost of the parts;
[0005] Inconvenient maintenance: When the clamping strip or the blade is locally damaged, it needs to be replaced as a whole, causing waste of resources and loss of downtime.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a drum structure that is simple in structure, low in maintenance cost and supports local replacement. SUMMARY
[0007] The purpose of the present application is to provide a modular T-shaped nail combination type potato rubbing machine drum structure, which optimizes the cooperation design of the drum groove and the T-shaped nail, realizes the quick installation, directional replacement and stable fixation of the nail body, and significantly reduces the processing and maintenance cost.
[0008] TECHNICAL SCHEME
[0009] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme:
[0010] 1. Drum main structure
[0011] The drum is a cylindrical structure, and the circumferential surface is uniformly distributed with inverted T-shaped cross-section grooves, which extend along the drum axis;
[0012] The groove bottom is provided with a notch clamping table for limiting the nail cap of the T-shaped steel nail, and the nail cap and the notch clamping table adopt gap fit (gap 0.1-0.3mm) to limit the longitudinal movement of the nail body along the radial direction of the drum;
[0013] A through-type nail removal hole is provided in the middle of the groove along the drum axis direction for inserting a ejector tool (such as a ejector pin) to directionally eject the damaged nail body.
[0014] 2. T-shaped steel nail design
[0015] The T-shaped steel nail is a row nail structure composed of a plurality of nail bodies arranged side by side, a nail cap is integrally formed with the nail body, and a nail tip vertically extends to the outer surface of the drum; the exposed height of the nail tip is 3-5mm (preferably 4mm), which can fully abrade the potato raw materials and reduce the processing resistance and nail body wear;
[0016] The nail body is made of high-carbon alloy steel material, and the surface is treated by carburizing and quenching, with a hardness of above HRC60, to improve the wear resistance.
[0017] 3. Modular combination and maintenance
[0018] When a single T-shaped steel nail is damaged, a ejection tool is inserted into the nail hole to apply axial force to eject the nail cap from the groove, so that directional replacement is realized without disassembling the drum.
[0019] The gap fit between the inverted T-shaped groove and the nail cap allows the nail body to float slightly, reducing the impact stress during the abrading process.
[0020] The row nail structure can cover a larger surface area of the drum, reduce the number of nails, and improve the uniformity of the abrading process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0027] Example 1:
[0028] Potato abrading machine drum processing steps:
[0029] The drum 1 is made of stainless steel material, and the inverted T-shaped grooves 3 are uniformly distributed on the circumferential surface of the drum 1 by milling process;
[0030] The T-shaped row nails 2 are embedded in the grooves 3 to ensure the gap fit;
[0031] The exposed height of the T-shaped row of nails 2 is 4 mm, and the tolerance is controlled within ±0.2 mm.
[0032] Maintenance method:
[0033] When the wear of a nail body exceeds the limit (exposed height <2 mm), the punch is inserted into the corresponding nail removal hole 4, and the middle part of the nail is pushed axially to make the nail body separate from the groove;
[0034] After replacing the new row of nails, the installation stability is detected to ensure that there is no radial shaking.
[0035] Example 2: Cassava rasp mill drum
[0036] The exposed height of the nail tip is adjusted to 5 mm to adapt to the higher fiber content of cassava, and the rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 1.
[0037] Beneficial effects
[0038] Simple to make: the inverted T-shaped groove can be completed by conventional machining, without the need for complex clamping strip assembly process;
[0039] Cost reduction: T-shaped steel nail modular production, partial replacement saves material cost;
[0040] Prolonged life: the nail body floating design disperses impact stress, and the overall life of the drum is improved by more than 30%.
[0041] The above examples are only specific embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is subject to the claims.
