[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. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a corn kernel impurity removal device, comprising: a base plate 1 serving as the main support; support feet 2 fixedly connected to the four corners of the top of the base plate 1; telescopic rods 3 fixedly connected to the top of each support foot 2; an impurity removal box 4 fixedly connected to the top of each telescopic rod 3; a support block 5 fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the base plate 1; a motor 6 fixedly connected to the left end of the support block 5; a rotating rod 7 fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 6 passing through the support block 5; an eccentric wheel 8 fixedly connected to the right end of the rotating rod 7; a connecting plate 9 rotatably connected to the right end of the eccentric wheel 8; and a connecting plate 9 with a right end... The bottom of the impurity removal box 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the rotating plate 10. The inner wall of the impurity removal box 4 is fixedly connected to the impurity removal screen 11. Springs 19 are provided between the impurity removal box 4 and the support foot 2. A filter assembly is provided at the top of the bottom plate 1. The top of the impurity removal box 4 is fixedly connected to the feed port 13. The right end of the impurity removal box 4 is fixedly connected to the discharge port 12. One end of each spring 19 is connected to the support foot 2, and the other end of each spring 19 is connected to the impurity removal box 4. The bottom of the impurity removal box 4 is fixedly connected to the fixed box 14. A collection box 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed box 14.
[0024] Specifically, corn kernels are fed into the impurity removal box 4 through the feed port 13. The motor 6 is started, and the drive end of the motor 6 rotates, causing the rotating rod 7 to rotate as well. During the rotation of the rotating rod 7, the eccentric wheel 8 rotates, and the rotation of the eccentric wheel 8 causes the connecting plate 9 to move. As the connecting plate 9 moves, the rotating plate 10 also moves. The movement of the rotating plate 10 causes the impurity removal box 4 to shake up and down. When the impurity removal box 4 shakes, the built-in impurity removal screen 11 filters the corn kernels to ensure the purity of the corn kernels. This plays a key role in improving the taste, optimizing the color and appearance of the final product, and making the food more in line with consumers' expectations for attractiveness. The telescopic rod 3 and the rotating plate 10 work together to effectively improve the stability of the impurity removal box 4 during operation. The impurities filtered by the impurity removal screen 11 will slide down the slope of the impurity removal box 4 into the collection box 15 for collection, while the filtered corn kernels are discharged from the discharge port 12 of the impurity removal box 4 for subsequent collection.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The filter assembly includes a filter box 16 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. Fixing frames 17 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the filter box 16. A slide 18 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 17. A filter screen 22 is provided on the inner wall of the slide 18. A connecting box 20 is fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the filter box 16. A tension spring 21 is provided between the inner wall of the slide 18 and the connecting box 20. An air pump 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter box 16. A hose 26 is fixedly connected to the top of the air pump 25. The rear end of the hose 26 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the impurity removal box 4. A connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the front end of the air pump 25. The outer wall of the connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the filter box 16. One end of the tension spring 21 is connected to the slide 18. One end of the tension spring 21 is connected to the inner wall of the connecting box 20. An exhaust port 23 is fixedly connected to the right end of the filter box 16.
[0026] Specifically, when dust removal is required, the air pump 25 is started. The air pump 25 sucks out the dust from inside the dust removal box 4 through the hose 26. The sucked-out dust is sent to the filter screen 22 for filtration through the connecting pipe 24. The filtered air is discharged from the exhaust port 23. This process can effectively reduce dust accumulation and reduce the risk of fire and explosion. Especially when handling flammable materials, it provides a higher level of safety for the working environment. If the filter screen 22 needs to be replaced, the slide 18 is pulled. The slide 18 will pull the filter screen 22 out of the filter box 16. After the filter screen 22 is replaced, the slide 18 is released. At this time, the tension spring 21 will generate tension to move the slide 18. As the slide 18 moves, the filter screen 22 will return to its original position. This design makes the inspection and replacement of the filter screen 22 more convenient and efficient, helps to reduce labor costs and reduce production delays caused by equipment maintenance.
[0027] Working Principle: First, corn kernels are fed into the impurity removal box 4 through the feeding port 13. Then, the motor 6 is started, causing its drive end to rotate, which in turn rotates the rotating rod 7. The rotating rod 7 then rotates the eccentric wheel 8, which in turn moves the connecting plate 9. The moving connecting plate 9 then moves the rotating plate 10, causing the impurity removal box 4 to oscillate up and down. During this oscillation, the impurity removal screen 11 filters the corn kernels, ensuring their purity and improving the final product's taste, color, and appearance, making the food more appealing and meeting consumer expectations. The cooperation between the telescopic rod 3 and the rotating plate 10 enhances the stability of the impurity removal box 4. The filtered impurities fall through the inclined surface of the impurity removal box 4 into the collection chamber. The filtered corn kernels are collected in the collection box 15 and discharged from the discharge port 12 into the impurity removal box 4 for collection. When dust removal is required, the air pump 25 is started to suck out the dust from the impurity removal box 4 through the hose 26. The sucked-out dust is sent to the filter screen 22 through the connecting pipe 24 for filtration and then discharged from the exhaust port 23, thereby reducing the risk of fire and explosion, especially when handling flammable materials, providing a safer working environment. When the filter screen 22 needs to be replaced, the slide 18 is pulled to pull the filter screen 22 out of the filter box 16. When the replacement is completed, the slide 18 is released, and the tension spring 21 will pull the slide 18. When the slide 18 is pulled, it will drive the filter screen 22 to reset, thereby enabling faster maintenance and replacement, reducing labor costs and delays.
[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
