Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gorgon fruit screening technology, specifically to a particle size classification and screening device for gorgon fruit. Background Technology
[0002] Euryale ferox, or water caltrop, is an aquatic herbaceous plant belonging to the genus Euryale in the family Nymphaeaceae. Botanically, it is also known as European ryegrass or fox nut. It has two types of leaves: primary leaves are submerged, arrow-shaped or elliptical-reniform; secondary leaves are floating, leathery, elliptical-reniform to round. The petioles and pedicels are stout. The flowers are about 5 cm long; the petals are purplish-red; there is no style, but the stigma is red. The fruit is a purplish-red spherical shape; the seeds are black and spherical. Flowering occurs from July to August, and fruiting from August to September. Euryale ferox is also called "chicken head rice" because its receptacle resembles a chicken's head. It is mainly distributed in southern China and northern Bihar, India, growing in ponds and lakes. It prefers warm, sunny locations and is neither cold-hardy nor drought-tolerant. Euryale ferox is propagated by seeds, and cultivation methods include direct sowing and transplanting seedlings. Based on natural and artificial cultivation methods, fox nuts can be divided into northern and southern varieties, with northern fox nuts being wild and southern fox nuts being cultivated. In the processing or sale of fox nuts (a type of aquatic ginseng), a specialty agricultural product, it is often necessary to sieve the kernels to meet the needs of deep processing or to set multiple price tiers according to different product grades to maximize profits. Due to differences in soil quality or origin, the specifications and quality of fox nuts purchased by factories vary. They need to be sorted to meet the requirements of deep processing or refined sales. If it is desired to simultaneously grade and sieve fox nuts of different sizes, multiple sieve operations are often required to select fox nuts of the appropriate size.
[0003] The existing technology has the following shortcomings: The existing technology, disclosed in CN202310173378.0, discloses an automated screening device for grading the particle size of water chestnuts, comprising: a frame, a feed hopper, a crank, a pulley, a drive assembly, a connecting rod, a first screen, a second screen, and a third screen; the pulley is slidably disposed inside the frame, and the feed hopper is disposed on the frame and located above the rear end of the pulley; the drive assembly is disposed on the frame, and the crank is rotatably connected to the rear end of the frame, the drive assembly being connected to the crank to drive the crank to rotate; one end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the crank, and the other end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the rear end of the pulley; the first screen, the second screen, and the third screen are sequentially disposed on the pulley from bottom to top, and the screen aperture diameters of the first screen, the second screen, and the third screen decrease sequentially.
[0004] While the aforementioned equipment is convenient for screening water chestnuts, the relatively flat screen surface can cause smaller water chestnut particles to mix with larger ones and be discharged, affecting the screening effect and accuracy. Additionally, when material is added through the feed inlet, the funnel-shaped design with a small bottom outlet, while facilitating slow material descent and screening, can also easily cause blockages, thus impacting the overall performance.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the vibrating motor is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the screening box by bolts, and the vibrating motor is electrically connected to the control panel by wires.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a baffle bar is provided on the upper surface of the screening plate, and a plurality of baffle bars are provided and evenly and symmetrically distributed on the upper surface of the screening plate. There are two screening plates, which are symmetrically distributed inside the screening box.
