[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] This utility model provides a technical solution for an integrated cleaning and crushing device for apple enzyme raw materials.
[0023] Please see Figure 1 The device includes a washing device 1, a crushing device 2, and a pitting shell 3. The washing device 1 and the crushing device 2 are respectively installed on both sides of the pitting shell 3. The washing device 1 is used to transport apples and wash them. It mainly consists of a transmission belt, a motor and reducer, a roller, a baffle, a high-pressure nozzle, a water pump, a clean water tank, and a collection platform. The crushing device 2 is used to crush the apples. It mainly consists of a crushing chamber, blades, a motor and reducer, and a discharge port. The washing device 1 and the crushing device 2 are both existing technologies. This application will not elaborate further on the washing device 1 and the crushing device 2.
[0024] Please see Figure 1 A device controller 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the crushing device 2. The purpose of setting the device controller 18 is to effectively control the electrical components in this application. The connection method is electrical connection. The device controller 18 is a known prior art. This application will not elaborate further on the device controller 18.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cored outer shell 3 is fixedly connected to an apple placement ring 13. The purpose of setting the apple placement ring 13 is to facilitate the placement of apples by staff, ensure the stability of the apples after placement, and facilitate subsequent core removal operations.
[0026] Please see Figure 2 The inner wall of the shell 3 is slidably connected to a pit collection chamber 14. The purpose of setting up the pit collection chamber 14 is to effectively collect the removed pits, which is conducive to the unified processing of the pits in the future and makes it convenient for staff to pick up and put them away.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 An electric push rod 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the shell 3. A push plate 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the electric push rod 11. The purpose of setting the electric push rod 11 is to provide sufficient power support for the translation of the push plate 12. The electric push rod 11 is a known technology. This application will not elaborate on the electric push rod 11 further.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top of the shell 3 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 4, and the other side of the mounting plate 4 is fixedly connected to a guide control ring 10. The inner wall of the guide control ring 10 is slidably connected to a guide hollow rod 8. The purpose of setting the guide control ring 10 is to effectively apply a control effect to the guide hollow rod 8, so that the guide hollow rod 8 can only move vertically up and down, and ensures the smoothness of the guide hollow rod 8 during the movement process, without jamming.
[0029] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 A DC motor 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 4. The output shaft of the DC motor 5 is fixedly connected to the power swing arm 6. The purpose of setting the DC motor 5 is to provide sufficient power support for the rotation of the power swing arm 6. The DC motor 5 is a known technology. This application will not elaborate on the specific model of the DC motor 5.
[0030] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 One end of the power swing rod 6 is rotatably connected to the force-applying swing rod 7, and one end of the force-applying swing rod 7 is rotatably connected to the guide hollow rod 8. The cooperation between the power swing rod 6, the force-applying swing rod 7 and the guide hollow rod 8 allows the rotation of the power swing rod 6 to drive the guide hollow rod 8 to move back to its original position through the force-applying swing rod 7 when the guide hollow rod 8 is restricted, which greatly improves the working effect.
[0031] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 One end of the guide hollow rod 8 is fixedly connected to the core removal tube 9. The guide hollow rod 8 and the core removal tube 9 are directly connected and maintain a linkage effect. The purpose of setting the core removal tube 9 is to effectively remove the apple core by pressing down and moving it, thereby improving the quality of apple enzyme.
[0032] Please see Figure 4 The inner wall of the pitting tube 9 is slidably connected to a T-shaped single rod 15. The pitting tube 9 will apply a position control effect to the T-shaped single rod 15 to ensure the stable displacement of the T-shaped single rod 15. At the same time, the setting of the T-shaped single rod 15 can limit the maximum movable position of the top plate 16 of the pit, ensuring the stability of the top plate 16 of the pit.
[0033] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 One end of the T-shaped single rod 15 is fixedly connected to the core plate 16. The T-shaped single rod 15 and the core plate 16 maintain a linkage effect. The purpose of setting the core plate 16 is to push out the removed core, which solves the problem that the core is inside the core removal tube 9 due to frictional resistance, affecting the next use. A tough spring 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the core plate 16. One end of the tough spring 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the core removal tube 9. The purpose of setting the tough spring 17 is to use the rebound characteristics of the tough spring 17 to add force to the core plate 16, so that the core plate 16 can be reset and the apple core can be pushed out smoothly.
[0034] Working Principle: During operation, apples are placed on the conveyor belt of the washing equipment 1. With the cooperation of various components of the washing equipment 1, the apples are transported to the collection platform and the washing process is completed. The operator then places the apples on the apple placement ring 13. The equipment controller 18 starts the DC motor 5, causing the power swing arm 6 to rotate. Because the guide hollow rod 8, which is connected to the force-applying swing arm 7, is restricted by the guide control ring 10, the power swing arm 6 can drive the guide hollow rod 8 to move vertically downwards via the force-applying swing arm 7. This, in turn, drives the core-removing cylinder 9, which is connected to the guide hollow rod 8, to move synchronously. The core-removing cylinder 9 comes into contact with the apple, and under continuous force, it gradually penetrates the apple's core. During this process, as the core-removing cylinder 9... The downward movement causes the top plate 16 to come into contact with the apple, and through the reaction force, the top plate 16 slides upward within the pitting tube 9, pressing the spring 17. When the pitting tube 9 completely penetrates the apple, the apple core will be inside the pitting tube 9. Since the core has completely detached from the apple, the rebound of the spring 17 causes the top plate 16 to reset. The top plate 16 will push the core out of the pitting tube 9, causing it to fall into the core collection chamber 14, completing the core collection operation. Then, the electric push rod 11 is activated again by the device controller 18. The electric push rod 11 drives the push plate 12 to move horizontally, and the push plate 12 pushes the cored apple into the crushing device 2. Under the action of the crushing device 2, the apple is crushed, which is conducive to the fermentation of apple enzymes.
[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
