[0005] A household pitting juicer includes a pitting mechanism, which comprises a ball screw drive assembly. A first slider is mounted on the ball screw, and the first slider forms a helical transmission pair with the ball screw via a ball nut. Driven by a first motor, the slider can reciprocate linearly along the helical groove of the ball screw. The first motor is coaxially connected to the ball screw shaft via a first coupling and is fixed to the right side of the screw shaft end by a rigid first motor bracket. A first connecting bracket is fixed to the front end of the ball screw. The first connecting bracket contains a second motor and an electric push rod. A bearing seat is connected to the lower end of the second motor, and a rotating rod is connected to the second motor via the bearing seat. A first gear is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the rotating rod. The electric push rod and the rotating rod are parallel to each other. A second gear is fixedly installed at the lower end of the electric push rod. The first gear and the second gear mesh with each other to form a transmission pair. A pin and a ring blade are coaxially installed at the lower end of the electric push rod. The cutting edge of the ring blade has a 20° cone angle. A servo-driven gripper mechanism is installed at the lower end of the connecting bracket. The gripper mechanism includes three circumferentially distributed arc-shaped grippers for fixing the fruit.

[0006] Furthermore, after the gripper holds and fixes the fruit, the rotating rod drives the first gear to rotate under the drive of the second motor. The first gear and the second gear mesh with each other and rotate synchronously, driving the ring blade of the ejector pin to move downward along the axis. Through the punching action, the pit is separated from the pulp, completing the pitting process.

[0007] Preferably, the pit cleaning module includes a pit cleaning brush and a recycling box. The upper end of the pit cleaning brush is connected to a third motor via a coupling to drive the pit cleaning brush to rotate and clean the pits on the electric push rod.
