The shell output mechanism includes a shell output belt located below the crushing mechanism, with rollers fitted on the belt. One end of the belt extends into the bottom of the crushing mechanism inside the housing, and the other end extends from the shell output hopper on the housing. The belt is inclined, with the longitudinal height of the end closer to the hopper greater than the other end. A first motor is mounted on the frame, and the motor is connected to the rollers at the end of the output belt via a transmission belt. The machine facilitates convenient and precise sorting of lotus seeds and shells, resulting in high processing efficiency.

[0026] Specifically, the extraction device 10 consists of a rotating shaft and extraction rollers, and there are multiple extraction rollers.
