Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn kernel processing technology, specifically a vibrating screen for processing sweet corn kernels. Background Technology

[0002] Corn kernels are the seed part of corn, usually used for food or as animal feed. They have high nutritional value, rich in carbohydrates, protein, vitamins and minerals. Corn kernels are mostly conical or spherical in shape, and mostly yellow in color, but there are also different varieties such as white, red and purple. In addition to being used as food, corn kernels are also widely used in industrial production, such as starch, alcohol and corn oil.

[0003] When screening corn kernels, a filter screen is usually used. However, the screening efficiency may be unstable. The vibrating screen is affected by the shape and size of the corn kernels during the screening process, which may lead to uneven screening or the omission of impurities. In addition, impurities may clog the screen during screening, which is not easy to clean in time, resulting in reduced screening efficiency and quality.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a vibrating screen for processing sweet corn kernels to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] 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.

[0026] This utility model provides a vibrating screen for processing sweet corn kernels, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, the vibrating screen for processing sweet corn kernels includes a screening box 1, a screening mechanism is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the screening box 1, and grooves A are provided on both sides of the screening box 1. A spraying mechanism is fixedly connected inside the grooves A.

[0027] The screening mechanism includes a drive motor 2, the outer surface of which is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the screening box 1. The output end of the drive motor 2 is splinedly connected to a gear rod 3, and the outer surface of the gear rod 3 is meshed with a screen 4. A vibration spring 5 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the screen 4. When screening corn kernels, the screens 4 and 6 in the screening mechanism are arranged in a triangular shape and can rotate cyclically to vibrate and screen the corn kernels. Larger corn kernels fall to the outside, while smaller corn kernels fall to one side of the bottom of the screen 4 for further screening. The screened kernels fall into the collection box 17, achieving the effect of multiple screenings, improving screening efficiency and quality, and facilitating subsequent processing. Through multiple screenings, corn kernels of different sizes and shapes can be separated more accurately, ensuring the uniformity and consistency of the final product, removing non-compliant particles, and thus improving the overall product quality.

[0028] One end of the vibrating spring 5 is fixedly connected to the B screen 6. Both ends of the A screen 4 are meshed with the B gear rod 7. The vibrating spring 5 can enhance the vibration effect through the vibrating machine 18, which makes it easier to screen the corn kernels more finely and improve its screening effect.

[0029] The spraying mechanism includes a storage box 8, the outer surface of which is fixedly connected to the A groove on one side of the screening box 1. A filter plate 9 is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage box 8. Adding a spraying function during corn kernel screening can provide a continuous flow of water or cleaning liquid, which helps to more thoroughly remove dirt and residues from the surface of the corn kernels, ensuring the hygienic quality of the final product. The water flow impact provided by the spraying mechanism can make lighter impurities such as grass clippings and leaf fragments easier to be washed away by water, thereby reducing the interference of these impurities in the screening process and improving screening efficiency.

[0030] A transmission pipe 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the storage box 8. A water inlet pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the transmission pipe 10. During screening, the water inlet pipe 11 is connected to an external water source, and the water flows through the transmission pipe 10. The water from the transmission pipe 10 is sprayed onto the corn kernels from the filter plate 9 of the storage box 8 to increase the flow of water and facilitate the removal of impurities.

[0031] A cover plate 12 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the screening box 1. A groove B is provided on the upper surface of the cover plate 12. A feed hopper 13 is fixedly connected inside the groove B. An inclined plate 14 is fixedly connected inside the feed hopper 13. The inclined plate 14 plays an auxiliary role in facilitating the rapid flow of corn kernels in the screening box 1.

[0032] The bottom of the screening box 1 is provided with a C-groove, and a filter screen 15 is fixedly connected inside the C-groove. The surface of the filter screen 15 is provided with several filter holes. The bottom of the screening box 1 is fixedly connected with a load-bearing column 16 around the perimeter. The outer surface of the load-bearing column 16 is fixedly connected with a collection box 17 through a fixing block. The collection box 17 plays a collecting role, which facilitates the collection of small corn kernels after screening.

[0033] A vibrator 18 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the screening box 1. One end of the vibrator 18 is fixedly connected to a vibrating connecting pipe 19. During screening, the vibrator 18 vibrates the A screen 4 and the water in the screening box 1 simultaneously. The A screen 4 enhances the vibration effect through the vibration spring 5. Increasing the vibration function can screen the corn kernels more finely and improve its screening effect.

[0034] Specifically, the corn kernels to be screened are placed into the screening box 1 from the feed hopper 13 along the inclined plate 14. The drive motor 2 is started, which drives the A gear rod 3 to rotate. When the A gear rod 3 rotates, it drives the A screen 4 to rotate. The A screen 4 drives the internal B gear rod 7 to rotate. There are two sets of B gear rods 7, and the A gear rod 3 and B gear rod 7 are triangularly distributed, which can make the A screen 4 rotate cyclically. Subsequently, when the A screen 4 rotates, it drives the vibration spring 5 and the B screen 6 to vibrate. The B screen 6 screens the corn kernels. The screened corn kernels fall onto the lower A screen 4, then onto the filter screen 15, and finally into the collection box 17, which facilitates the effect of multiple screenings. Through multiple screenings, corn kernels of different sizes and shapes can be separated more accurately. This ensures the uniformity and consistency of the final product, removes non-compliant particles, and thus improves the overall product quality. Subsequently, during screening, the water inlet pipe 11 is connected to an external water source, and the water flows through the transmission pipe 10. The water in the transmission pipe 10 is sprayed onto the corn kernels from the filter plate 9 of the storage box 8. The water flow impact provided by the spraying mechanism makes it easier for lighter impurities such as grass clippings and leaf fragments to be washed away, thereby reducing the interference of these impurities in the screening process and improving screening efficiency. In addition, during screening, the vibrator 18 simultaneously vibrates the A screen 4 and the water in the screening box 1. The A screen 4 enhances the vibration effect through the vibration spring 5. Increasing the vibration function can screen the corn kernels more finely and improve its screening effect.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
