Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lotus seed technology, and in particular to a lotus seed peeling device. Background Technology

[0002] Lotus flowers grow in many regions of my country and are beloved for their beautiful appearance. The seeds of the lotus are called lotus seeds, which are small nuts, oval, egg-shaped, or ovoid in shape. Their size varies depending on the variety, with a typical weight of 1100-1400 grams per thousand seeds. The young fruit has a green pericarp, which later turns brown, becoming brownish-gray, grayish-brown, or dark brown when mature. It has fine longitudinal striations and relatively wide veins. The flowering period is from June to September, opening in the morning and closing in the evening. The fruiting period is from August to October.

[0003] Lotus seeds have applications in many fields, whether for direct consumption or medicinal use, and they have good effects. Lotus seeds are generally covered with a semi-transparent outer skin. Since the outer skin is bitter and has no medicinal value, it needs to be removed during lotus seed processing. Most current equipment uses blades to cut lotus seeds, but the diameter of lotus seeds is not the same, and the outer wall is not a perfect sphere. Cutting them with blades or by hand, and then discarding the lotus seed skin, is a rather cumbersome process with low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] A lotus seed peeling device, such as Figures 1-9 As shown, the system includes a base 1 and a support platform 2. The support platform 2 is welded to the top outer wall of the base 1. A mounting box 9 is welded to the top outer wall of the support platform 2. A blower 23 is bolted to the inner side wall of the mounting box 9. A discharge pipe 11 is welded to the outer side wall of the mounting box 9. A side plate 4 is welded to the outer side wall of the mounting box 9. A motor 5 is bolted to the top outer wall of the side plate 4. A conveying roller 6 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting box 9. The conveying roller 6 is connected to the output end of the motor 5. A center rod 16 is welded to the outer side wall of the other end of the conveying roller 6. A turntable 17 is keyed to the outer side wall of the center rod 16. A connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected to the outer sidewall. A slanted groove 13 is opened on the outer sidewall of the mounting box 9. A movable frame 12 is slidably connected to the outer sidewall of the mounting box 9. A pull rod 14 is welded to the outer sidewall of the movable frame 12. The other end of the pull rod 14 cooperates with the connecting rod 15. A transverse slider 22 is slidably connected to the inner sidewall of the movable frame 12. A matching rod 21 is welded to the outer sidewall of the transverse slider 22. The matching rod 21 cooperates with the slanted groove 13. A clamping block 19 is welded to the outer sidewall of the other end of the matching rod 21. A cutting assembly is provided on the top of the mounting box 9. A collection box 18 is slidably connected to the inner sidewall of the mounting box 9.

[0032] When in use, put the lotus seeds into the installation box 9, turn on the motor 5 to drive the conveyor roller 6 to transport the lotus seeds, turn on the cutting component to peel them, and turn on the blower 23 to blow the peeled lotus seed skin to one side. The peeled lotus seeds are discharged through the discharge pipe 11. When the conveyor roller 6 rotates, the turntable 17 at the end rotates at the same time. The connecting rod 15 pulls the pull rod 14, and the pull rod 14 drives the moving frame 12 to move. When the moving frame 12 moves, the cooperating rod 21 cooperates with the inclined groove 13, which drives the clamping block 19 to clamp the lotus seed skin that may be blown to the side and cause blockage. The skin then falls into the collection box 18 for collection.

[0033] The cutting assembly includes a collection box 3, a high-pressure water pump 8, and a high-pressure nozzle 20. The collection box 3 is placed on the top outer wall of the base 1. The high-pressure water pump 8 is fixed to the top outer wall of the mounting box 9 by bolts. The input and output ends of the high-pressure water pump 8 are respectively connected to connecting pipe 7 and connecting pipe 10 through flanges. The high-pressure nozzle 20 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting box 9 by a key and is connected to connecting pipe 10. The outer side wall of the collection box 3 is connected to a connector 24 by a key and is connected to connecting pipe 7.

[0034] When in use, connect pipe 7 to connector 24, then turn on the high-pressure water pump 8 so that water passes through pipe 10 and is sprayed out for cutting via high-pressure nozzle 20.

[0035] The inner wall of the collection box 3 is slidably connected to a placement plate 30, the inner wall of the placement plate 30 is movably inserted with an installation frame 35, the inner wall of the installation frame 35 is movably inserted with a filter plate 34, and the collection box 3 is provided with an ejection assembly inside.

[0036] The filter plate 34 is installed to filter the remaining water after cutting. When the filter plate 34 needs to be replaced, the push-out component is pushed out to make the placement plate 30 easy to replace.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, lotus seeds are put into the installation box 9. The motor 5 is turned on to drive the conveyor roller 6 to transport the lotus seeds. At the same time, the high-pressure water pump 8 is turned on to make water flow through the connecting pipe 10 and the high-pressure nozzle 20 to peel the lotus seeds. At the same time, the blower 23 is turned on to blow the lotus seed skins to one side. The peeled lotus seeds are discharged through the discharge pipe 11. When the conveyor roller 6 rotates, the turntable 17 at the end rotates at the same time. The connecting rod 15 pulls the pull rod 14. The pull rod 14 drives the moving frame 12 to move. When the moving frame 12 moves, the cooperating rod 21 and the inclined groove 13 cooperate to drive the clamping block 19 to clamp the lotus seed skins that are blown to the side and may cause blockage. They fall into the collection box 18 for collection. The water remaining after cutting is filtered through the filter plate 34 in the collection box and recycled.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] A lotus seed peeling device, such as Figures 1-9 As shown, the ejection assembly includes a push plate 26, a first gear 27, and a second gear 28. The push plate 26 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the collection box 3. A spring 25 is welded between the push plate 26 and the outer wall of the collection box 3. The first gear 27 and the second gear 28 are rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the collection box 3. The first gear 27 and the second gear 28 mesh with each other. An L-shaped rotating plate 29 is welded to the outer side wall of the first gear 27 and the second gear 28. A mating groove 32 is provided on the outer side wall of the L-shaped rotating plate 29. A mating rod 33 is welded to the inner wall of the push plate 26. The mating rod 33 mates with the mating groove 32. A lifting roller 31 is rotatably connected to the outer side wall of the L-shaped rotating plate 29.

[0040] Working principle: When in use, the push plate 26 can be pushed, and the L-shaped rotating plate 29 can be rotated by the cooperation of the two-part rod 33 and the mating groove 32. In turn, the gear 28 meshes with the gear 1 27 and rotates. The lifting roller 31 on the outside of the L-shaped rotating plate 29 lifts the placement plate 30, which facilitates the replacement of the filter plate 34.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
