Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model specifically relates to a stir-frying and separating device for nut processing, belonging to the field of nut processing technology. Background Technology
[0002] Nuts are a type of indeterminate fruit with a hard shell and one or more seeds inside (such as chestnuts and almonds). Nuts can be divided into herbaceous nuts and woody nuts. Nuts are the essence of plants and are generally rich in nutrients, containing high levels of protein, oil, minerals, and vitamins. They have excellent effects on human growth and development, strengthening the body, and preventing diseases. Most nuts are roasted in a wok with stirring leaves and roasting sand.
[0003] Currently, in the existing nut processing and roasting separation equipment, the roasting sand (such as quartz sand, salt sand, etc.) is repeatedly used as a heat transfer medium. After use, the roasting sand is mostly manually put back into the roasting equipment. Manual handling of the high-temperature roasting sand (which can easily cause burns if it is not completely cooled) requires frequent interruptions to production, which can easily reduce overall efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a stir-frying and separating device for nut processing, thereby reducing manual intervention, avoiding contamination and burn risks, and improving efficiency.
[0005] A stir-frying and separating device for nut processing includes an installation cylinder, a drum, and a support frame. A second collecting shell is installed inside the support frame. A connecting pipe is inclinedly installed through the bottom end of the second collecting shell. A storage cylinder is installed through the other end of the connecting pipe. A conveying pipe is installed through the inside of the storage cylinder using a support frame. A second motor is installed at the bottom end of the storage cylinder. A connecting shaft is installed at the output end of the second motor. The connecting shaft is movably inserted into the conveying pipe. A spiral blade is installed on the outer side of the connecting shaft, and the outer surface of the spiral blade contacts the inner wall of the conveying pipe. A storage shell is installed at the top of the installation cylinder. The inlet of the storage shell is located below the other end of the conveying pipe. A filling pipe, which is arc-shaped, is installed through the front of the storage shell.
[0006] Preferably, four sets of heating plates are provided on the inner side of the mounting cylinder, and the roller is rotatably mounted inside the mounting cylinder using bearings. Both the mounting cylinder and the roller are inclined.
[0007] Preferably, the inner side of the drum is provided with three sets of stirring blades, the three sets of stirring blades are in the shape of spiral plates, and the back of the drum is provided with a first gear in the form of a column.
[0008] Preferably, the support frame is disposed at the bottom end of the mounting cylinder, a first motor is disposed on the inner side of the support frame, a second gear is disposed at the output end of the first motor, a chain is meshed on the lower surface of the second gear, and the chain is meshed with the upper surface of the first gear.
[0009] Preferably, a first collection shell is provided on the lower surface of the mounting cylinder, and a guide pipe is inclinedly provided through the bottom end of the first collection shell.
[0010] Preferably, the support frame has a movable mounting shell inside, which is located below the guide pipe. The mounting shell has a detachable screen inside, which is located above the second collection shell.
[0011] Preferably, the mounting shell has protrusions on both sides, the support frame has four sets of guide rods inside, all four sets of guide rods movably pass through the interior of the protrusions, and the support frame has an electric push rod on the back, the electric push rod is set at the same angle as the mounting shell, and the rod body at the output end of the electric push rod is connected to the back of the mounting shell.
[0012] Beneficial effects:
[0013] Equipped with components such as a No. 2 collecting shell and a conveying pipe, the No. 2 collecting shell collects the screened roasted sand, which is then guided into a storage cylinder for temporary storage via an inclined connecting pipe. The No. 2 motor drives the connecting shaft and the spiral blade to rotate, which lifts the roasted sand temporarily stored in the storage cylinder from the conveying pipe into the storage shell, achieving automatic backfilling of the roasted sand. The arc-shaped design of the injection pipe prevents the roasted sand from splashing, accurately feeding the roasted sand from the storage shell into the drum, effectively reducing manual intervention, avoiding the risk of contamination and burns, and improving efficiency.
[0014] The system includes components such as a primary collection shell and an installation shell. The primary collection shell receives the mixed materials after stir-frying and discharges them into the installation shell through a guide pipe. The installation shell is driven to reciprocate along the guide rod by rotating the output end of the electric push rod, which in turn causes the screen to vibrate, thus separating the stir-fried nuts from the roasted sand. The screen is designed to be detachable, making it easy to replace with different aperture sizes to accommodate various nut sizes. Attached Figure Description

[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] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, a stir-frying and separating device for nut processing;
[0023] The system includes an installation cylinder 1, a roller 3, and a support frame 6. A second collection shell 17 is installed inside the support frame 6. A connecting pipe 18 is inclinedly installed through the bottom end of the second collection shell 17. A storage cylinder 19 is installed through the other end of the connecting pipe 18. A conveying pipe 20 is installed through the storage cylinder 19 using a support frame. A second motor 21 is installed at the bottom end of the storage cylinder 19. A connecting shaft 22 is installed at the output end of the second motor 21. The connecting shaft 22 is movably inserted into the conveying pipe 20. A spiral blade 23 is installed on the outside of the connecting shaft 22, and the outer surface of the spiral blade 23 contacts the inner wall of the conveying pipe 20. A storage shell 24 is installed at the top of the installation cylinder 1. The inlet of the storage shell 24 is located below the other end of the conveying pipe 20. A filling pipe 25 is installed through the front of the storage shell 24, and the filling pipe 25 is an arc-shaped tube.
[0024] The second collection shell 17 is located below the screen 13. It can collect the sieved sand and guide it into the storage cylinder 19 for temporary storage via the inclined connecting pipe 18. The second motor 21 drives the connecting shaft 22 and the spiral blade 23 to rotate, which can lift the sand temporarily stored in the storage cylinder 19 from the conveying pipe 20 to the storage shell 24, realizing automatic backfilling of the sand. The arc design of the injection pipe 25 avoids sand splashing and accurately feeds the sand in the storage shell 24 into the drum 3, effectively reducing manual intervention, avoiding the risk of contamination and burns, and improving efficiency.
[0025] Four sets of heating plates 2 are provided on the inner side of the mounting cylinder 1. The drum 3 is rotatably installed inside the mounting cylinder 1 using bearings. Both the mounting cylinder 1 and the drum 3 are inclined at 10°. Three sets of stirring blades 5 are provided on the inner side of the drum 3. The three sets of stirring blades 5 are spiral blades. A first gear 4 is provided on the back of the drum 3 using a columnar structure. A support frame 6 is provided at the bottom of the mounting cylinder 1. A first motor 7 is provided on the inner side of the support frame 6. A second gear 8 is provided at the output end of the first motor 7. A chain 9 is meshed on the lower surface of the second gear 8. The chain 9 is meshed with the upper surface of the first gear 4.
[0026] The mounting cylinder 1 serves as the fixed support for the nut processing and roasting separation device. A heating plate 2 is installed inside the mounting cylinder 1 to provide a heat source. The mounting cylinder 1 is tilted at 10° to facilitate material flow. The drum 3 is rotatably mounted inside the mounting cylinder 1 via bearings. The drum 3 has built-in spiral stirring blades 5 to push the nuts to tumble and move axially, ensuring uniform heating. The heating plate 2 transfers heat to the drum 3 through thermal radiation and conduction, so that the nuts inside the drum 3 are heated evenly. The heating plate 2, combined with an external temperature control system (which requires additional configuration), can adjust the heating power to adapt to the roasting temperature requirements of different nuts (such as 120°C for peanuts and 80°C for almonds).
[0027] The first gear 4 is positioned on the back of the roller 3 by a column and is located above the second gear 8. The first motor 7 drives the second gear 8 to run, and drives the first gear 4 to rotate the roller 3 through the chain 9. The structure is stable and has a large torque. The first motor 7 installed inside the support frame 6 has the same angle as the mounting cylinder 1. The support frame 6 is used to provide a suitable support height for the mounting cylinder 1.
[0028] The lower surface of the mounting cylinder 1 is provided with a first collection shell 10. A guide pipe 11 is inclinedly arranged through the bottom end of the first collection shell 10. The mounting shell 12 is movably arranged inside the support frame 6. The mounting shell 12 is located below the guide pipe 11. A screen 13 is detachably arranged inside the mounting shell 12. The screen 13 is located above the second collection shell 17. Protrusions 14 are provided on both sides of the mounting shell 12. Four sets of guide rods 15 are arranged inside the support frame 6. All four sets of guide rods 15 movably pass through the inside of the protrusions 14. An electric push rod 16 is arranged on the back of the support frame 6. The electric push rod 16 is arranged at the same angle as the mounting shell 12. The rod body of the output end of the electric push rod 16 is connected to the back of the mounting shell 12.
[0029] The first collection shell 10, located on the lower surface of the mounting cylinder 1, is used to receive the mixed material (nuts + roasted sand) after stir-frying. It is discharged into the mounting shell 12 through the guide pipe 11. The electric push rod 16 is operated by rotating the output end of the electric push rod 16, which can push the mounting shell 12 to reciprocate along the guide rod 15, thereby moving the screen 13 to separate the stir-fried nuts and roasted sand. The screen 13 is designed to be detachable, which is convenient to replace different apertures to accommodate various nut sizes. The guide rod 15 moves through the protrusions 14 on both sides of the mounting shell 12, which can limit the movement trajectory of the mounting shell 12 and prevent vibration and deviation.
