[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4An embodiment of this utility model provides a petal crushing device for processing gardenia flowers, including a crushing table 1, a collection box 2 inside the crushing table 1, an opening 101 on one side of the crushing table 1, a crushing tube 3 fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the crushing table 1, a feeding hopper 303 connected to one side of the crushing tube 3, the lower end of the crushing tube 3 passing through the upper surface of the crushing table 1 and extending into the interior of the crushing table 1, an inner sleeve 4 inside the crushing tube 3, the lower end of the inner sleeve 4 extending out of the lower end of the crushing tube 3 and fixedly connected to an L-shaped cross-section annular connecting part 402, a crushing shaft 5 in the middle of the inner sleeve 4, multiple sets of crushing blades 501 arranged in a ring array on the crushing shaft 5, and a driving device 6 for driving the crushing shaft 5 to rotate at the upper end of the crushing tube 3.

[0024] Furthermore, a first feed inlet 302 is provided on one side of the crushing tube 3, and one end of the feed hopper 303 is fixedly connected to the outside of the first feed inlet 302.

[0025] Furthermore, a second feed inlet 401 is provided on one side of the inner sleeve 4. The second feed inlet 401 of the inner sleeve 4 is aligned with the first feed inlet 302 of the crushing tube 3. Gardenia flowers are introduced into the inner sleeve 4 through the feed hopper 303. The crushing shaft 5 rotates, driving multiple sets of crushing blades 501 to rotate and crush the gardenia flowers entering the inner sleeve 4 during the falling process. Gardenia flower fragments adhering to the crushing blades 501 rotate with the crushing blades 501 and are separated from the crushing blades 501 under the action of centrifugal force.

[0026] Furthermore, after the lower end of the crushing tube 3 extends into the interior of the crushing table 1, an external thread 301 is provided on the side end face, and an internal thread 403 is provided on the inner end face of the L-shaped cross-section annular connecting part 402.

[0027] Furthermore, the crushing tube 3 and the inner sleeve 4 are connected and fixed by the external thread 301 at the lower end of the crushing tube 3 and the internal thread 403 on the inner side of the L-shaped cross-section annular connecting part 402. After the L-shaped cross-section annular connecting part 402 is separated from the lower end of the crushing tube 3, the inner sleeve 4 can be pulled out from the lower end of the crushing tube 3, which facilitates the collection of gardenia fragments adhering to the inner wall of the inner sleeve 4.

[0028] Furthermore, the drive unit 6 includes a motor 601 disposed therein.

[0029] Furthermore, the upper end of the crushing shaft 5 extends through the upper end of the crushing tube 3 into the drive device 6 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 601, so that the crushing shaft 5 can be rotated by the motor 601.

[0030] Working Principle: In operation, gardenia petals to be crushed are first introduced into the feed hopper 303. The petals enter the first feed inlet 302 of the crushing tube 3 via the feed hopper 303, and then subsequently enter the second feed inlet 401 of the inner sleeve 4, which is aligned with it. Inside the inner sleeve 4, the petals begin to fall, simultaneously subjected to the rotation of multiple sets of crushing blades 501 on the crushing shaft 5. The crushing shaft 5 is driven by a motor 601 within the drive device 6, and the output shaft of the motor 601 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the crushing shaft 5. Therefore, when the motor 601 starts, the crushing shaft 5 rotates accordingly. The rotating crushing blades 501 cut and crush the falling gardenia petals into fine fragments. Due to the high-speed rotation of the crushing blades 501, some gardenia fragments may temporarily adhere to their surface. However, as the shredder 501 continues to rotate, these adhered fragments are gradually thrown off the surface of the shredder 501 under the action of centrifugal force and continue to fall. The shredded petal fragments eventually enter the collection box 2 inside the shredder 1 through the lower opening of the inner sleeve 4, completing the collection process. After collection, the collection box 2 can be pulled out through the opening 101. When it is necessary to clean the shredder, especially to remove any petal fragments that may be adhered to the inner wall of the inner sleeve 4, the inner sleeve 4 can be rotated to separate the L-shaped cross-section annular connecting part 402 at its lower end from the external threaded part 301 at the lower end of the shredder tube 3. Since the two are connected by threads, the inner sleeve 4 can be easily pulled out from inside the shredder tube 3 for convenient cleaning. After cleaning, the inner sleeve 4 can be reinstalled into the shredder tube 3.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
