Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of food processing and production technology, and in particular to a pepper cutting and seed screening device. Background Technology
[0002] In the food processing and production process, some vegetables and fresh ingredients need to be cut before they can be eaten. In particular, when using chili peppers to stir-fry hot pot base, in order to avoid excessive coarse fiber affecting the taste, it is also necessary to remove the seeds. However, traditional manual cutting and seed removal are labor-intensive and inefficient. Existing mechanical cutting and seed removal are mostly carried out separately. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a chili pepper cutting and seed sieving device. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this application provides a chili-cutting and seed-sifting device that can cut, wash, and sift chilies. It has a simple structure and high efficiency.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technology:
[0005] A pepper cutting and sieving device includes a barrel body, inside which a rotating rod is coaxially rotatable. The rotating rod is driven to rotate by a first motor. The rotating rod includes an upper rod and a lower rod coaxially connected to the bottom of the upper rod. The diameter of the upper rod is larger than the diameter of the lower rod. Multiple blades are arrayed on the outer periphery of the top of the upper rod, and multiple stirring blades are arrayed on the outer periphery of the bottom of the lower rod.
[0006] An isolation ring is formed on the bottom surface of the barrel. The isolation ring is coaxially located on the outside of the lower rod and its outer diameter is equal to that of the upper rod. There is a predetermined distance between the top of the isolation ring and the bottom of the upper rod. A lifting ring is vertically movable inside the barrel. The inner wall of the lifting ring matches the outer wall of the isolation ring, and the outer wall of the lifting ring matches the inner wall of the barrel. A flow ring is provided on the outer sleeve of the barrel. The flow ring is hollow inside and its interior is connected to the interior of the barrel. A water pipe is connected to the outside of the flow ring. When the top surface of the lifting ring is flush with the top surface of the isolation ring, the flow ring is located between the blade and the lifting ring.
[0007] The top surface of the barrel has a feed inlet, and the bottom of the barrel has a detachable coaxially mounted receiving barrel with multiple mesh openings on the bottom surface. The bottom surface of the barrel has a through hole with the same inner diameter as the isolation ring, which is used to connect the receiving barrel to the inside of the barrel.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0009] 1. The upper rod and isolation ring divide the inside of the barrel into two areas: a pepper cutting area and a seed sifting area. The movement of the lifting ring allows for switching between the connected and closed areas of the pepper cutting area and the seed sifting area.
[0010] 2. The flow ring can carry the chili peppers into the seed sieving area. While rinsing the chili peppers, the stirring blades will cause the chili pepper seeds to fall out and finally flow out from the bottom of the receiving bucket with the water. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the implementation methods of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the embodiments described in the present utility model are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0016] This application provides a pepper-cutting and seed-screening device, such as... Figures 1-3 As shown, the device includes a barrel body 1, inside which a rotating rod 2 is coaxially rotatable. The rotating rod 2 is driven to rotate by a first motor, which is mounted on the top surface of the barrel body 1. Its output shaft passes through the top surface of the barrel body 1 and is coaxially connected to the rotating rod 2. The rotating rod 2 includes an upper rod 21 and a lower rod 22 coaxially connected to the bottom of the upper rod 21. The diameter of the upper rod 21 is larger than the diameter of the lower rod 22. Multiple blades 211 are arranged on the outer periphery of the top of the upper rod 21 for cutting peppers. Multiple stirring blades 221 are arranged on the outer periphery of the bottom of the lower rod 22 for turning the peppers.
[0017] An isolation ring 11 is formed on the inner bottom surface of the barrel 1. The isolation ring 11 is coaxially arranged on the outside of the lower rod 22 and its outer diameter is equal to that of the upper rod 21. There is a predetermined distance between the top of the isolation ring 11 and the bottom of the upper rod 21. A lifting ring 3 is vertically movable inside the barrel 1. The inner wall of the lifting ring 3 matches the outer wall of the isolation ring 11 and the outer wall of the lifting ring 3 matches the inner wall of the barrel 1. A flow ring 4 is provided on the outer sleeve of the barrel 1. The flow ring 4 is hollow inside and its interior is connected to the interior of the barrel 1 through a connecting hole. A water pipe is connected to the outside of the flow ring 4. When the top surface of the lifting ring 3 is flush with the top surface of the isolation ring 11, the flow ring 4 is located between the blade 211 and the lifting ring 3. At this time, the flow ring 4 is located below the blade 211 to prevent the peppers from entering the connecting hole formed between the interior of the flow ring 4 and the interior of the barrel 1 when cutting peppers, causing blockage. The flow ring 4 is located above the lifting ring 3 to ensure that water can flow through the top surface of the lifting ring 3 and the top surface of the isolation ring 11 when sifting seeds. More specifically, both the inner and outer walls of the isolation ring 11 are equipped with sealing layers.
[0018] The top surface of the barrel 1 has a feeding port, which is located between the outer wall of the upper rod 21 and the inner wall of the barrel 1. A sealing device is installed at the feeding port to prevent the peppers from spilling out when cutting the peppers. A receiving bucket 5 is detachably and coaxially installed at the bottom of the barrel 1. The bottom surface of the receiving bucket 5 has multiple mesh openings. The bottom surface of the barrel 1 has a through hole coaxially opened with the same inner diameter as the isolation ring 11. The through hole is used to connect the receiving bucket 5 and the inside of the barrel 1.
[0019] The area enclosed by the inner wall of the barrel 1, the outer wall of the upper rod 21, and the top surface of the lifting ring 3 is the pepper cutting work area, and the area enclosed by the isolation ring 11 is the seed sieving work area.
[0020] When in use, the peppers to be chopped and sieved are fed into the barrel 1 through the feed inlet. There is a predetermined distance between the top surface of the lifting ring 3 and the blade 211, and it is not lower than the bottom surface of the upper rod 21. This is to expand the pepper storage area while using the lifting ring 3 to close the pepper cutting work area and the sieve work area, so as to increase the amount of peppers fed at one time.
[0021] Pepper slicing: This is achieved by rotating the blade 211 using the rotating rod 2. Before or during this process, the lifting ring 3 moves upward, using the top surface of the lifting ring 3 to compress the peppers, reducing the slicing area and increasing the pepper density in the storage area, so that the blade 211 can chop the peppers more evenly. During this process, the lifting ring 3 stops moving when it reaches a certain height to avoid interference with the blade 211.
[0022] Move the lifting ring 3 downwards so that its top surface is flush with the top surface of the isolation ring 11, connecting the pepper cutting area with the seed sieving area. As the lifting ring 3 descends, it will also cause the peppers to descend synchronously. Water is supplied to the flow ring 4 through the water pipe. The water flows evenly into the barrel 1 through the flow ring 4, and then flows into the receiving barrel 5 through the top surfaces of the lifting ring 3 and the isolation ring 11. During this process, the water flow will continuously carry the peppers into the receiving barrel 5.
[0023] Seed sieving: This is achieved by rotating the rotating rod 2 to drive the stirring blade 221 to rotate. Under the flushing action of the water flow and the tumbling action of the stirring blade 221, the chili peppers are completely washed, and the chili seeds will also be separated and flow out through the mesh with the water flow. After the seeds are sieved, the receiving bucket can be taken out and the material can be discharged.
[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the top surface of the upper rod 21 is in contact with the inner top surface of the barrel 1 to prevent chili peppers from entering between the top surface of the upper rod 21 and the inner top surface of the barrel 1. This would not only cause blockage and affect the rotation of the rotating rod 2, but also lead to the waste of some chili peppers. The bottom of the lower rod 22 extends out of the through hole. When the receiving barrel 5 is installed at the bottom of the barrel 1, the bottom of the lower rod 22 is located inside the receiving barrel 5, so that the stirring blades 221 can more thoroughly turn the chili peppers located at the bottom of the receiving barrel 5, thereby improving the seed screening efficiency.
[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the top surfaces of both the isolation ring 11 and the lifting ring 3 are inverted conical surfaces. When the isolation ring 11 moves to the predetermined position, the top surfaces of the isolation ring 11 and the lifting ring 3 are flush, so that the water flow carrying the chili peppers can flow more smoothly through the top surfaces of the lifting ring 3 and the isolation ring 11 into the receiving bucket 5, thus avoiding chili peppers remaining on the top surfaces of the lifting ring 3 and the isolation ring 11, which would cause waste.
[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the lifting ring 3 is connected to a guide rod 31 and a screw 32 that are vertically inserted through the bottom surface of the barrel 1. The guide rod 31 and the screw 32 are respectively located on both sides of the lifting ring 3. The screw 32 is threaded through a threaded sleeve 12 that is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the barrel 1. A first gear 6 is sleeved on the threaded sleeve 12. The first gear 6 meshes with a second gear 7. The second gear 7 is driven to rotate by a second motor. The second motor is mounted on a mounting base, which is connected to the outer wall of the barrel 1.
[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an annular groove 13 is coaxially formed on the bottom surface of the barrel 1, which passes through the bottom of the isolation ring 11. The annular groove 13 is used for threaded connection with one of the side walls of the receiving barrel 5.
[0028] In application, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this application without departing from the spirit and scope of this application.
