Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sweet corn processing equipment, and in particular to a corn cob pushing scraper. Background Technology

[0002] Sweet corn is a special variety of corn, characterized by its high sugar content, tender and delicious taste, and rich content of protein and various vitamins, making it more nutritious than regular corn. Sweet corn is a novel food that combines the benefits of a fruit and a vegetable.

[0003] When processing sweet corn, cleaning equipment is needed to repeatedly clean the corn cobs. Specifically, the corn cobs are conveyed back and forth over a flowing water source. During the conveying process, two sets of conveyor belts moving in opposite directions are set up as the transmission mechanism, and a turning mechanism is set at the end of the conveyor belt to turn the conveyed corn cobs and realize the reciprocating conveying.

[0004] The common steering mechanism mentioned above is an arc-shaped guide plate, which guides the corn cobs to the conveyor belt on the other side. However, this structure has the drawback that the corn cobs are prone to jamming and accumulating, which is not conducive to the conveying of the two sets of conveyor belts. Workers are required to handle the situation to keep it smooth, which increases manpower consumption and is not conducive to the efficient operation of the equipment.

[0005] To address the above problems, a corn cob pushing scraper is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a corn cob pushing scraper that solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] The objective of this utility model can be achieved by adopting the following technical solution:

[0008] A corn cob pushing scraper includes a feeding machine tool, on which a first conveyor belt and a second conveyor belt are symmetrically mounted, and a pushing mechanism is fixed across the top of the first conveyor belt.

[0009] The pushing mechanism includes a pushing plate positioned 1 cm above the first conveyor belt. The back of the pushing plate is provided with a trapezoidal reinforcing rib. A first hinge mechanism is provided at one end of the top of the reinforcing rib, and a second hinge mechanism is provided on the outer wall of the reinforcing rib. A reciprocating mechanism is provided inside the second hinge mechanism.

[0010] Furthermore, the first hinge mechanism includes a first rotating pin welded to the reinforcing rib and a rotating plate welded to the top of the feeder, wherein the first rotating pin and the rotating plate are rotatably mounted in a limiting manner.

[0011] Furthermore, the second hinge mechanism includes a hinge seat welded to the outer wall of the reinforcing rib, a second rotating pin inserted into the hinge seat, and a hinge plate rotating at the upper limit of the second rotating pin.

[0012] Furthermore, the reciprocating mechanism includes a connecting screw welded to the free end of the hinge plate, an adjusting sleeve threaded onto the free end of the connecting screw, a rotating seat rotatably mounted on the closed end of the adjusting sleeve via a bearing, a hinge ring fixed to one side wall of the rotating seat, and a rotating seat rotatably mounted inside the hinge ring.

[0013] The feeding mechanism also includes a mounting base bolted to the top of the feeding machine tool, on which a drive motor is detachably fixed, and the rotating seat is nested on the output shaft of the drive motor.

[0014] Furthermore, an inclined baffle is provided on one side of the pusher plate, and the baffle is fixed to the top of the feeding machine tool with screws.

[0015] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This invention designs a pushing mechanism that uses a drive motor to rotate a rotating seat, which in turn drives a hinge ring, adjusting sleeve, and connecting screw to reciprocate. The connecting screw drives a pushing plate to move in a fan shape along a first rotating pin, a second rotating pin, and a rotating plate. This causes the corn cobs on the first conveyor belt to be pulled onto the second conveyor belt under the pressure of the pushing force, thus achieving the turning and transfer of the corn cobs. Furthermore, it can maintain efficient scraping and feeding of corn cobs when they are piled up, preventing them from overflowing from the conveying mechanism, eliminating the need for manual maintenance, and ensuring the continuous operation of the equipment.

[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to understand the technical solution of this utility model more clearly, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto.

[0023] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a corn cob pushing scraper, including a feeding machine tool 1. A first conveyor belt 2 and a second conveyor belt 3 are symmetrically installed on the feeding machine tool 1. A pushing mechanism 4 is fixed across the top of the first conveyor belt 2. The pushing mechanism 4 includes a pushing plate 403 located 1 cm above the first conveyor belt 2. A trapezoidal reinforcing rib is provided on the back of the pushing plate 403. A first hinge mechanism 6 is provided at one end of the top of the reinforcing rib. A second hinge mechanism 7 is provided on the outer wall of the reinforcing rib. A reciprocating mechanism 8 is provided inside the second hinge mechanism 7.

[0024] In the above structure, the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 are driven by independent motors and convey corn cobs in opposite directions. 4 / 5 of the pusher plate 403 is located in the first conveyor belt 2 and the other 1 / 5 is located in the second conveyor belt 3. When the corn cobs are conveyed on the first conveyor belt 2 and approach the pusher plate 403, they will be squeezed, rubbed and piled up, which will raise the height of the corn cob pile. At this time, the pusher plate 403, which is making a fan-shaped motion, will retract to reduce the height of the corn cobs and then return to accelerate the conveying into the second conveyor belt 3 using the thrust.

[0025] The first hinge mechanism 6 includes a first rotating pin 601 welded to a reinforcing rib and a rotating plate 602 welded to the top of the feeder 1. The first rotating pin 601 and the rotating plate 602 are installed in a limited rotational position. The pusher plate 403 rotates in the slot of the rotating plate 602 through the first rotating pin 601.

[0026] The second hinge mechanism 7 includes a hinge seat 701 welded to the outer wall of the reinforcing rib. A second rotating pin 702 is inserted into the hinge seat 701. A hinge plate 703 is rotated at the upper limit of the second rotating pin 702. The structure of the first rotating pin 601 and the second rotating pin 702 enables the reciprocating mechanism 8 to realize the fan-shaped movement of the push plate 403 when it is working.

[0027] The reciprocating mechanism 8 includes a connecting screw 805 welded to the free end of the hinge plate 703. The free end of the connecting screw 805 is threaded with an adjusting sleeve 804. The adjusting sleeve 804 can adjust the connection length with the connecting screw 805 by rotating inside the rotating seat 803, thereby adjusting the pushing amplitude of the pusher plate 403. The closed end of the adjusting sleeve 804 is rotatably mounted with a rotating seat 803 via a bearing. A hinge ring 802 is fixed to one side wall of the rotating seat 803. A rotating seat 801 is rotatably mounted inside the hinge ring 802.

[0028] The feeding mechanism 4 also includes a mounting base 401 bolted to the top of the feeding machine tool 1. A drive motor 402 is detachably fixed on the mounting base 401. A rotating seat 801 is nested on the output shaft of the drive motor 402. The drive motor 402 is connected to an external controller.

[0029] An inclined baffle 5 is provided on one side of the pusher plate 403. The baffle 5 is fixed to the top of the feeder 1 with screws. The baffle 5 can prevent the corn cobs from overflowing the feeder 1 when the stacking height is too high.

[0030] The working principle of this device is as follows: When in use, corn cobs are fed forward onto the first conveyor belt 2. The drive motor 402 drives the rotating seat 801 to make a circular motion. The rotating seat 801 drives the adjusting sleeve 804, the connecting screw 805, and the hinge plate 703 to make a reciprocating motion through the hinge ring 802. The hinge plate 703 drives the pusher plate 403 to make a fan-shaped motion along the rotating mechanism composed of the first rotating pin 601 and the rotating plate 602 through the hinge seat 701 and the second rotating pin 702, guiding the flowing corn cobs and pushing them onto the second conveyor belt for reverse transport.

[0031] When the above structure is adopted, when the corn cobs accumulate at the scraper, the reciprocating movement of the scraper makes space for the accumulated corn cobs, realizing automatic anti-blocking. In addition, with the pushing force of the scraper, the corn cobs are kept to smoothly enter the second conveyor belt 3 from the first conveyor belt 2, preventing congestion.

[0032] The above are merely further embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope disclosed by this utility model, based on the technical solution and concept of this utility model, shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0033] All standard parts used in this application can be purchased from the market, and can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. The control method is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art and is common knowledge in the field. Since this application is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail in this application.
