Detailed Implementation

[0024] The following is a detailed explanation with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] This invention provides a grape crushing device that is easy to disassemble and clean, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the system includes a housing 100. A screening element 101 is disposed within the housing 100. A feed inlet 105 is provided on the feed side of the screening element. An inner pusher 102 is disposed at the feed inlet 105, fitting snugly against the inner wall of the screening element 101. A rotating shaft 104, penetrating the internal axis of the screening element 101, is disposed axially on the inner pusher 102. An outer cutter 103 is also disposed at the end of the screening element 101 away from the feed inlet 105. The outer cutter 103 surrounds the outer periphery of the screening element 101 and is connected to the inner pusher 102 via a connecting disc 106. The inner pusher 102 covers the entire length of the screening element 101 and is capable of rotating about the axis of the screening element 101. The inner pusher 102 has a spiral design, so that during rotation, grapes entering from the feed inlet 105 are pushed along the extension of the screening element 101, and the outer cutter 103 destems the grapes, preventing interference with the subsequent grape crushing process. More preferably, the inner pusher 102 also pushes the waste material after destemming by the outer cutter 103 to the waste area 108, preventing grape stems from remaining inside the screening member 101. The connecting disc 106 is used so that the outer cutter 103 can rotate with the inner pusher 102 during the rotation of the inner pusher 102 around the rotating shaft 104, allowing the outer cutter 103 to perform cutting work on the outer periphery of the screening member 101. This invention uses the inner pusher 102 to push grapes to prevent grape retention inside the screening member 101, and the outer cutter 103, fitted onto the screening member 101, cuts the screened grapes, leaving the cut grape stems, thus avoiding interference with the taste of the grapes during subsequent grape crushing.

[0027] According to a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 5The screening component 101 shown has a gap at the location of the connecting plate 106 for the rotation of the connecting plate 106. The screening component 101 is divided into a screening section 110 and a feeding section 111 by the gap. Both the screening section 110 and the feeding section 111 are fixedly connected to the housing 100. Preferably, the screening section 110 and the feeding section 111 can be connected to the housing 100 by snap-fit, which facilitates subsequent disassembly and cleaning of the device. The connecting plate 106 is disposed within the gap of the screening component 101, thereby allowing free axial rotation with the inner pusher 102. Furthermore, the outer cutter 103 is also connected to the connecting plate 106, so that the outer cutter 103 can be axially rotated by the axial rotation of the connecting plate 106 around the outer periphery of the screening component 101. Preferably, the outer cutter 103 is disposed around the outer periphery of the screening section 110 of the screening component 101. Thus, grapes screened by the screening component 101 can be cut. This invention, through the arrangement of the inner pusher 102, the outer cutter 103, and the connecting plate 106, enables the inner pusher 102 located inside the screening member 101 and the outer cutter 103 located on the outer periphery of the screening member 101 to rotate synchronously around an axis. The integrated design of the inner pusher 102, the outer cutter 103, and the connecting plate 106 facilitates disassembly after the screening member 101 is removed from the housing 100, and eliminates the need for secondary precision calibration during installation, allowing for cutting operations along the outer periphery of the screening member 101.

[0028] According to a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the screening section 110 of the screening member 101 near the outer cutter 103 has a plurality of evenly distributed screening holes 112. The screening member 101 is semi-circular in shape. The plurality of screening holes 112 are distributed on the semi-circular screening member 101. Preferably, the diameter of the screening holes 112 is larger than the diameter of the grapes to be processed, so that the grapes fall into the screening holes 112 under the action of gravity and extend out of the screening holes 112 to the outer periphery of the screening member 101 for cutting by the outer cutter 103. After simple cutting, the grapes will have grape stems attached. At this time, the grapes can be directly poured into the device of this invention for further processing by the outer cutter 103 and the screening member 101. The grapes are separated from the grape stems after this treatment, preventing substances such as resin, tannin, and tannins in the grape stems from entering the subsequent grape crushing process.

[0029] According to a preferred embodiment, the end of the rotating shaft 104 furthest from the feed inlet 105 is rotatably connected to the housing 100. The end of the rotating shaft 104 near the feed inlet 105 extends out and is rotatably connected to the housing 100, and also extends out of the housing 100 to connect to a drive motor. The drive motor is externally connected to the housing 100, and its output shaft is connected to the rotating shaft 104, thereby driving the inner pusher 102 and the outer cutter 103 to rotate axially. The drive motor is detachable, facilitating subsequent removal of the inner pusher 102 and the outer cutter 103.

[0030] According to a preferred embodiment, the inner pusher 102 and the outer cutter 103 are coaxially arranged, and the inner pusher 102 and the outer cutter 103 have the same curvature. The screening member 101 is located in the gap between the inner pusher 102 and the outer cutter 103. The screening member 101, the inner pusher 102, and the outer cutter 103, designed as described above, can perform their respective required functions. The inner pusher 102 can push the grapes to move inside the screening member 101. The outer cutter 103 can cut off the grape berries protruding from the screening hole 112, separating them from the grape stems.

[0031] It should be noted that the components of this utility model are freely detachable. For example, a switch door is provided in the housing 100 at the drive motor connected to the rotating shaft 104. Since the end of the rotating shaft 104 away from the drive motor rotates through a bearing embedded inside the housing 100, the rotating shaft 104 can be pulled out from the bearing for disassembly. The operator can first remove the drive motor and simultaneously open the switch door to remove the rotating shaft 104, the inner pusher 102, and the outer cutter 103 from inside the housing 100. Thus, the operator can also separately remove the screening section 110 and the feeding section 111, which are snap-fitted to the housing 100, facilitating cleaning of the device. The freely detachable design of the components, especially the detachability of the rotating shaft 104, drive motor, screening section 110, and feeding section 111, allows the operator to easily clean and maintain the device, reducing maintenance time and costs, and improving the equipment's service life and working efficiency.

[0032] According to a preferred embodiment, the screening member 101 is connected to a waste inclined plate 107 that is inclined and adapted to the cross-section of the screening member 101. The waste inclined plate 107 is connected to the waste area 108 of the housing 100. The waste area 108 is used to collect grape stems after they have been cut by the screening member 101 and the outer cutter 103. The grape stems move toward the waste area 108 under the pushing action of the inner pusher 102 and fall into the waste area 108 through the waste inclined plate 107, preventing the grape stems from accumulating inside the device, keeping the inside of the device clean, and facilitating the centralized treatment of waste, thereby improving the operating efficiency and hygiene of the device.

[0033] According to a preferred embodiment, the housing 100 further includes a collection area 109. A first inclined platform 113 and a second inclined platform 114 for collecting grapes are provided vertically below the screening section 110. The first inclined platform 113 and the second inclined platform 114 are respectively inclined towards the collection area 109. The inclined arrangement of the first inclined platform 113 and the second inclined platform 114 facilitates the falling of cut grapes into the subsequent crushing mechanism, improving the continuity and efficiency of grape processing, reducing the residence time of grapes inside the device, and lowering the risk of grape oxidation and contamination.

[0034] According to a preferred embodiment, a first crushing wheel 115 and a second crushing wheel 116 are further provided in the collection area 109. The first crushing wheel 115 and the second crushing wheel 116 have evenly distributed crushing teeth 117 arranged circumferentially. The first crushing wheel 115 and the second crushing wheel 116 mesh with each other. The separated grapes are crushed by the concave-convex crushing teeth 117 and fall freely into the collection area 109 below under the action of gravity. One or both of the first crushing wheel 115 and the second crushing wheel 116 can be equipped with a drive motor to rotate around an axis. When one drive motor is installed, the other crushing wheel without a drive motor acts as a driven wheel for crushing. When two drive motors are installed, the first crushing wheel 115 and the second crushing wheel 116 rotate at the same speed but in opposite directions.

[0035] According to a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 2 The box 100 shown is also equipped with a first dismantling door 118 located in the waste area 108, a second dismantling door 119 located in the collection area, and a third dismantling door 120 located at the top vertically of the screening section 110. The first dismantling door 118, the second dismantling door 119, and the third dismantling door 120 are designed to allow operators to open each modular area separately to remove waste, remove crushed grapes, or perform washing operations.

[0036] According to a preferred embodiment, a spray head 121 is also provided at the vertical end of the housing 100, and the spray head 121 is arranged toward the screening section 110. The spray head 121 can be connected to an external water pipe for cleaning. The spray head 121 provided on the housing 100 can clean the screening section 110 without disassembling the device. This design provides a convenient cleaning method, reduces cleaning time and labor intensity, improves the hygiene and service life of the device, and also reduces equipment maintenance costs.
