[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0021] A round fruit peeling, dicing and plating machine includes a base 101, and a positioning mechanism, a peeling mechanism, a dicing mechanism and a fruit tray 201, all mounted on the base 101. The positioning mechanism is used to mount the round fruit to be peeled. After the round fruit to be peeled is mounted on the positioning mechanism, the peeling mechanism performs the peeling action. After the round fruit is peeled, the dicing mechanism performs the dicing action. The diced fruit pieces fall into the fruit tray 201.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the placement of the fruit plate 201, a groove (not marked in the figure) is provided on the base 101, and a slot communicating with the groove is provided on the outer side wall of the base 101, so that the fruit plate 201 can be placed into the groove through the slot.

[0023] Specifically, the positioning mechanism includes a first motor 301 installed within the groove and three positioning pins 302 mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 301, with the three positioning pins 302 arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The first motor 301 is connected to the inner wall of the groove via a connecting rod. When cutting a round fruit, the round fruit is inserted into the three positioning pins 302, thus fixing the round apple in place. In other embodiments of this example, the number of positioning pins 302 may be two, four, or more.

[0024] In this embodiment, the peeling mechanism includes a drive mechanism and a blade holder 401 both mounted on the base 101, and three peeling blades 402 mounted on one side of the blade holder 401. The blade holder 401 is slidably connected to the base 101, and the sliding direction of the blade holder 401 is perpendicular to the central axis of the positioning pin 302. All three peeling blades 402 have an arc-shaped structure, and the three peeling blades 402 are combined to fit the outer surface of a round fruit. The drive mechanism is used to drive the blade holder 401 closer to or further away from the positioning pin 302, so that the three peeling blades 402 are closer to or further away from the round fruit fixed on the positioning pin 302. In other embodiments of this embodiment, the number of peeling blades 402 may also be two. Furthermore, if the spring 403 is not provided, the peeling blades 402 may also be made of an elastic material, which, under the push of the blade holder 401, can also closely fit the outer surface of the round fruit.

[0025] In order to allow each blade to swing within a certain angle range to conform to the surface of a round fruit, in this embodiment, the outer side of the middle part of any peeling knife 402 is rotatably connected to the knife holder 401. Two springs 403 are installed on any peeling knife 402, and the end of any spring 403 away from the peeling knife 402 is connected to the knife holder 401. The two springs 403 are symmetrically distributed about the hinge point between the peeling knife 402 and the knife holder 401.

[0026] Main reference Figure 2 To ensure that the three peeling blades 402 overlap during cutting, thus covering the entire outer surface of the round fruit, in this embodiment, the three peeling blades 402 are spaced apart vertically and staggered horizontally. Furthermore, the vertical projections of the ends of adjacent peeling blades 402 overlap. This way, even if one blade misses a portion of the peel during cutting, the adjacent blades can remove that uncut portion.

[0027] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the cutting mechanism includes a screw 501 and a guide rod 502 both mounted on a base 101, and a cutter disc 503 threadedly connected to the screw 501. The screw 501 is rotatably connected to the base 101, and a motor (not shown in the figure) for driving the screw 501 to rotate is installed inside the base 101. One end of the screw 501 is drively connected to the output shaft of the motor. The cutter disc 503 is slidably connected to the guide rod 502, and when not cutting, the cutter disc 503 is located above the positioning pin 302. The screw 501 and the guide rod 502 are arranged such that the central axis of both the screw 501 and the guide rod 502 is parallel to the central axis of the positioning pin 302. Figure 1 As shown, the cutter disc 503 has a circular structure. Six blades are installed in a circular array inside the cutter disc 503. Two sleeves are symmetrically installed on the outer side wall of the cutter disc 503. One sleeve is threadedly connected to the screw 501, and the other sleeve is slidably connected to the guide rod 502.

[0028] Preferably, in this embodiment, the drive mechanism includes a feed motor 404 mounted on the base 101, a drive gear 405 mounted on the output shaft of the feed motor 404, and a rack 406 mounted on the tool holder 401. The rack 406 is always meshed with the drive gear 405, and the extension direction of the rack 406 is parallel to the sliding direction of the tool holder 401.

[0029] Additionally, a control circuit board can be installed inside the base 101. The first motor 301, the feed motor 404, and the motor that drives the screw 501 can all be electrically connected to this control circuit board to control the three motors to work together and improve efficiency. Since this control method is existing technology, it will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] Before peeling, insert the center of the round fruit onto the three positioning pins 302. Then, start the feed motor 404, causing the blade holder 401 to move towards the round fruit under the drive of the gear mechanism. Once all three peeling blades 402 are in close contact with the outer surface of the round fruit, the feed motor 404 stops driving the blade holder 401. At this point, start the first motor 301. The first motor 301 controls the three positioning pins 302 to make the round fruit rotate. During the rotation of the round fruit, the three peeling blades 402 peel off the skin. After peeling is complete, the feed motor 404 moves the blade holder 401 away from the round fruit, thus moving the three peeling blades 402 away from the round fruit. Figure 1 From the perspective of the machine, the motor that controls the rotation of the screw 501 is finally started. The screw 501 rotates to make the cutting disc 503 move downward until the round fruit that has been peeled is cut into several pieces. The cut fruit pieces fall into the fruit plate 201 through the groove, and then the fruit plate 201 can be pulled out through the slot.

[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or related technologies or knowledge. Modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be protected within the scope of the appended claims.
