[0037] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0038] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, a camellia fruit cutter includes a folding bracket 1, a support plate 3, a pressure plate 5, a rotating cylinder 6, and a gate 9.
[0039] The folding bracket 1 includes a rectangular support plate 101 and two H-shaped support legs 102. A hinge block 103 is fixed to the bottom of each end of the support plate 101. Each hinge block 103 is hinged to an H-shaped support leg 102 through a first hinge shaft 104.
[0040] Two symmetrically arranged slide rails 2 are installed at the top of the folding bracket 1. Specifically, the slide rails 2 are connected to the support plate 101 with screws. A right-angled groove 201 is provided on the top inner side of the slide rail 2. The support plate 3 is slidably installed between the two slide rails 2. Specifically, the side of the support plate 7 is slidably engaged with the groove 201, and the thickness of the support plate 7 is equal to the depth of the groove 201.
[0041] To facilitate position limitation of the pallet during sliding, the tail of the slide rail 2 is provided with a limiting protrusion 202 protruding into the slide groove 201 to limit the position of the pallet 7, and the front end of the pallet 3 is provided with a limiting protrusion 302 to limit the position of the pallet 3.
[0042] The folding bracket 1 has a first through hole 105 for the camellia fruit to pass through, and the first through hole 105 is located in the middle of the support plate 101. The first through hole 105 is a rectangular hole. The rear part of the tray 3 has a second through hole 301 for the camellia fruit to pass through. The second through hole 301 is a circular hole. The length of the first through hole 105 is greater than the diameter of the second through hole, and the width of the first through hole 105 is greater than the diameter of the second through hole 301.
[0043] The pressure plate 5 is installed at the top center of the slide rail 2. Specifically, the four corners of the pressure plate are connected to the two slide rails 2 with screws.
[0044] The rotating cylinder 6 is rotatably installed in the circular hole 501 in the center of the pressure plate 5. The bottom of the rotating cylinder 6 is provided with a horizontally outwardly extending flange 602. The flange 602 is sandwiched between the pressure plate 5 and the support plate 3. However, the rotating cylinder 6 can be rotated by hand to adjust the direction of the rotating cylinder 6, that is, the rotating cylinder 6 is not in a locked state.
[0045] The rotating cylinder 6 has six gate slots 601 arranged in a circular array with their openings facing upwards. Inside the rotating cylinder 6, between any two adjacent gate slots 61, a camellia fruit clamping plate 7 that can move radially along the rotating cylinder is installed. The specific installation structure of the camellia fruit clamping plate 7 is as follows: two vertically parallel guide rods 701 are fixed to the centrifugal side of the camellia fruit clamping plate 7; guide holes 603 arranged radially along the rotating cylinder are opened on the side wall of the rotating cylinder 6; a limiting nut 11 is screwed onto the centrifugal end of each guide rod 701 after passing through the guide hole 603 from the inside to the outside; and two compression springs 12 are clamped between each camellia fruit clamping plate 7 and the rotating cylinder 6.
[0046] The top of the camellia fruit clamp 7 is provided with a guide part 702 that bends from the inside out, which makes it easier to insert the camellia fruit into the camellia fruit clamp 7.
[0047] A hinge frame 8 is installed at the top of the slide rail 2. The rear part of the switch 9 is hinged to the hinge frame 8. Two fan-shaped toothed blocks 10 are installed at the rear part of the switch 9, which are symmetrically arranged about the switch 9. A rack 4 extending rearward along the long axis of the support plate 3 is also installed at the rear part of the support plate. The toothed blocks 10 and the rack 4 mesh with each other. When the switch 9 flips, it drives the toothed blocks 10 to rotate, thereby driving the rack 4 to move back and forth to adjust the position of the support plate 3 on the slide rail 2.
[0048] The specific structure of the hinge frame 8 and the specific installation structure of the gate 9 and the toothed block 10 are as follows: The hinge frame 8 includes two symmetrical supports 801, a second hinge shaft 802, and two isolation tubes 803. The two supports 801 are respectively installed on two slide rails 2. The two ends of the second hinge shaft 802 are respectively installed in the mounting holes at the top of the two supports 801. The rear part of the gate 9 and the toothed block 10 are rotatably installed in the middle part of the second hinge shaft 802. An isolation tube 803 is sleeved on the second hinge shaft 802 between the adjacent supports 801 and the toothed block 10.
[0049] Each isolation tube 803 is fitted with a torsion spring 804 to prevent the switch from accidentally falling and cutting hands. One end of the torsion spring 804 is inserted into the first insertion hole 8011 inside the support 801, and the other end is inserted into the second insertion hole 1001 on the toothed block 10. When the switch 9 is pressed down without human intervention, the switch is tilted under the action of the torsion spring 804, ensuring that a safe space is reserved between the switch 9 and the rotating cylinder 6 and the camellia fruit clamp 7 for human operation.
[0050] A blade 901 is provided at the bottom center of the guillotine 9, and the length of the blade 901 is greater than the diameter of the rotating cylinder 6. When the guillotine 9 is inserted into the guillotine slot, the blade 901 is located in two symmetrical guillotine slots on the same straight line, that is, the blade 901 can cut an opening in the camellia fruit sandwiched between the camellia fruit clamps.
[0051] Cutting the camellia fruit:
[0052] Step 1: Unfold the two H-shaped support legs 102 of the folding bracket so that the folding bracket stands upright on the ground;
[0053] Step 2: Flip the switch upwards to a backward tilted position, insert the unopened camellia fruit between the 6 camellia fruit clamps, and rotate the rotating cylinder so that one pair of switch slots are located on the plane where the switch flips.
[0054] Step 3: Flip the guillotine downwards, and move the support plate backwards through the cooperation of the toothed block and rack. The support plate supports the camellia fruit from the bottom. The guillotine continues to press down and insert into the guillotine slot to cut an opening in the camellia fruit.
[0055] Step 4: Flip the switch upwards until the switch is pulled out of the switch slot. Rotate the rotating cylinder by hand to change the position of the other pair of switch slots on the plane where the switch flips. Then repeat Step 3.
[0056] Step 5: After cutting a camellia fruit, flip the guillotine upwards to a backward tilted position. Use the toothed block and rack to move the support plate forward, making the first and second through holes connect vertically. Insert an unopened camellia fruit between the six camellia fruit clamps. The opened camellia fruit that was originally clamped between the six camellia fruit clamps will fall through the first and second through holes, completing the replacement of the camellia fruit. Then repeat steps 3 and 4.
