Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of peeling machine technology, specifically relating to a potato tuber peeling machine. Background Technology
[0002] Potato tuber peeling machines are agricultural or food processing equipment used to efficiently remove the skin from potatoes. They are widely used in production lines for potato chips, French fries, starch, etc., as well as in the catering industry. Based on the peeling principle, they are mainly divided into mechanical friction type, steam hot water type, freezing peeling type and laser ultrasonic peeling type. Among them, mechanical friction type uses rotating abrasive rollers or brushes to rub and peel, which is simple in structure and low in cost.
[0003] However, in actual use, those skilled in the art have found that most existing peeling machines rely on friction from brush rollers for peeling, and do not spray water during the peeling process. This not only easily damages the potato flesh but also fails to clean it thoroughly, requiring manual washing after peeling, which is inconvenient for users. Furthermore, some existing peeling machines cannot tilt, causing some potatoes to remain stuck in the peeling box after peeling, making it impossible to dump and collect them, which is also inconvenient for users.

[0006] Preferably, the mobile cleaning mechanism includes two support plates, which are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the peeling box. A top plate is fixedly connected to the top of the two support plates. A threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the two support plates. A threaded block is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod. A diverter pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded block. A plurality of evenly distributed nozzles are connected to the bottom of the diverter pipe. A mounting plate is fixedly connected to the outside of one of the support plates. A second motor is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate. The output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to the threaded rod.
[0007] Preferably, a water tank is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate, and a water inlet is provided on the top of the water tank. A plug is inserted into the inside of the water inlet, and a connecting hose is connected to the outside of the water tank. The other end of the connecting hose is connected to a diversion pipe.
[0008] Preferably, a limiting groove is formed inside the top plate, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded block, and the limiting block is slidably connected in the limiting groove.
[0009] Preferably, the lifting and unloading mechanism includes two fixed blocks, both of which are fixedly connected to the bottom of the peeling box. A rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the two fixed blocks, and a fixed plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod. A connecting frame is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed plate, and two support rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting frame. A base is fixedly connected to both the two support rods and the bottom of the fixed plate, and a fixed shell is fixedly connected to the bottom of the peeling box.
[0010] Preferably, the top of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to two correspondingly distributed retaining blocks, the inside of the two retaining blocks is rotatably connected to a screw, the outside of the screw is threaded to a moving block, the top of the moving block is rotatably connected to a rotating rod, and the other end of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the fixed shell.
[0011] Preferably, a turntable is fixedly connected to the outside of the screw, and a plurality of evenly distributed locking holes are opened inside the turntable. A slot block is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting frame, and a plug rod is inserted into the inside of the locking hole and inserted into the slot block.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. By placing potatoes into the peeling box and then starting the first motor, one of the transmission gears fixed to the output end of the first motor begins to rotate, which in turn drives the brush roller to rotate and rub the potatoes to peel them. Then, the second motor is started, and the threaded rod fixed to the output end of the second motor begins to rotate, which in turn drives the threaded block connected to the thread to move. As the threaded block moves, the limiting block fixed to the top slides in the limiting groove, making the movement smoother. Then, the diversion pipe fixed to the bottom begins to move, and the water source inside the water tank flows into the diversion pipe through the connecting hose, and then is divided into multiple nozzles to spray out, thereby moving and spraying the potatoes placed in the peeling box evenly to wet and clean them. When the threaded block moves to the bottom of the threaded rod, the output end of the second motor reverses, which drives the threaded block to move back and forth, thereby making the water spray more even and making it easier to peel and clean the potatoes, ensuring convenient use afterwards.
[0014] 2. By rotating the turntable, the fixed screw starts to rotate, which in turn moves the externally threaded moving block. At the same time, the rotating rod at the top of the moving block rotates to a vertical position, thereby lifting the fixed shell. This causes the peeling box to tilt and rise. When the peeling box tilts and rises, the rotating rod fixed inside the fixed plate rotates within the two fixed blocks, making it easier to tilt the peeling box. Then, the gate is pulled out, and the peeled potatoes can be quickly poured out through the discharge port. The tilting design of the peeling box ensures that no potato residue remains inside during discharge, making it more convenient for users. Attached Figure Description

A moving cleaning mechanism 10 is provided at the top of the peeling box 1, and a lifting and unloading mechanism 11 is provided at the bottom of the peeling box 1.
[0025] In this embodiment, the mobile cleaning mechanism 10 can conveniently and evenly move and clean the potatoes, thereby ensuring that they are cleaned easily during the peeling process and convenient for subsequent use. The lifting and pouring mechanism 11 can conveniently tilt the peeling box 1, thereby conveniently pouring out the peeled potatoes.
[0026] Example 2:
[0027] Please see Figure 1-6 Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: the mobile cleaning mechanism 10 includes two support plates 1001, which are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the peeling box 1. A top plate 1002 is fixedly connected to the top of the two support plates 1001. A threaded rod 1003 is rotatably connected inside the two support plates 1001. A threaded block 1004 is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod 1003. A diversion pipe 1008 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded block 1004. A plurality of evenly distributed nozzles 1009 are connected to the bottom of the diversion pipe 1008. A mounting plate 1005 is fixedly connected to the outside of one of the support plates 1001. A second motor 1006 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 1005. The output end of the second motor 1006 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 1003. A water tank 1012 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 1002. A water inlet 1010 is provided on the top of the water tank 1012. A plug 1011 is inserted into the inside of the water inlet 1010. A connecting hose 1007 is connected to the outside of the water tank 1012. The other end of the connecting hose 1007 is connected to the diversion pipe 1008. A limiting groove 1013 is opened inside the top plate 1002. A limiting block 1014 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded block 1004. The limiting block 1014 is slidably connected in the limiting groove 1013.
[0028] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to peel and clean the potatoes at the same time, the potatoes are first placed in the peeling box 1, and then the first motor 5 is started. At this time, one of the transmission gears 2 fixed to the output end of the first motor 5 starts to rotate, which then drives the brush roller 3 to rotate and rub the outside of the potato to peel it. Then the second motor 1006 is started, and the threaded rod 1003 fixed to the output end of the second motor 1006 starts to rotate, which then drives the threaded block 1004 to move. At the same time as the threaded block 1004 moves, the limiting block 1014 fixed to the top slides in the limiting groove 1013, so that the movement... The movement is smoother, and then the bottom-fixed diversion pipe 1008 begins to move. The water source inside the water tank 1012 flows into the diversion pipe 1008 through the connecting hose 1007, and then is divided into multiple nozzles 1009 for spraying. This allows for even movement, spraying, wetting, and cleaning of the potatoes placed inside the peeling box 1. When the threaded block 1004 moves to the bottom of the threaded rod 1003, the output end of the second motor 1006 reverses, which drives the threaded block 1004 to move back and forth, making the water spray more even and making it easier to clean the potatoes after peeling, ensuring convenient use afterwards.
[0029] Example 3:
[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 Based on Embodiments 1 and 2, this utility model provides a technical solution: the lifting and unloading mechanism 11 includes two fixing blocks 1101, both of which are fixedly connected to the bottom of the peeling box 1. A rotating rod 1102 is rotatably connected inside each of the two fixing blocks 1101. A fixing plate 1103 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 1102. A connecting frame 1104 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixing plate 1103. Two support rods 1106 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting frame 1104. A base 1105 is fixedly connected to both the two support rods 1106 and the bottom of the fixing plate 1103. A fixing shell 1109 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the peeling box 1. The top of the 04 is fixedly connected to two correspondingly distributed retaining blocks 1107. The two retaining blocks 1107 are rotatably connected to a screw 1108. The screw 1108 is threadedly connected to a moving block 1111. The top of the moving block 1111 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 1110. The other end of the rotating rod 1110 is rotatably connected to the fixed shell 1109. The screw 1108 is fixedly connected to a turntable 1112. The turntable 1112 has multiple evenly distributed locking holes 1115 inside. The connecting frame 1104 is fixedly connected to a slot block 1113. A plug rod 1114 is inserted into the slot block 1113.
[0031] In this embodiment, when the peeled potatoes need to be poured out, the turntable 1112 is rotated first, which then drives the fixed screw 1108 to start rotating. This drives the externally threaded moving block 1111 to start moving, and at the same time, the rotating rod 1110 connected to the top of the moving block 1111 rotates to a vertical position, thereby lifting the fixed shell 1109. Then, the peeling box 1 is tilted and lifted. When the peeling box 1 is tilted and lifted, the rotating rod 1102 fixed inside the fixed plate 1103 will rotate within the two fixed blocks 1101, making it easier for the peeling box 1 to tilt. Then, the gate 8 is pulled out, and the peeled potatoes can be quickly poured out through the discharge port 7. By tilting the peeling box 1, it can be ensured that no potato residue will appear inside when pouring, making it more convenient for users.
[0032] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When it is necessary to peel and clean potatoes at the same time, firstly, the potatoes are placed in the peeling box 1, and then the first motor 5 is started. At this time, one of the transmission gears 2 fixed to the output end of the first motor 5 starts to rotate, which then drives the brush roller 3 to rotate and rub the outside of the potato to peel it. Then, the second motor 1006 is started, and at this time, the threaded rod 1003 fixed to the output end of the second motor 1006 starts to rotate, which then drives the threaded block 1004 connected by threads to start moving. As the threaded block 1004 moves, the top-fixed limiting block 1014 slides within the limiting groove 1013, making the movement smoother. This then drives the bottom-fixed diversion pipe 1008 to move. Water from inside the water tank 1012 flows through the connecting hose 1007 into the diversion pipe 1008, and is then distributed to multiple nozzles 1009 for spraying, thus evenly moving, spraying, and wetting the potatoes placed inside the peeling box 1. The process continues as the threaded block 1004 moves to the bottom of the threaded rod 1003. When the second motor 1006 reverses its output, it drives the threaded block 1004 to move back and forth, making the water spray more even and easier to clean the potatoes after peeling, ensuring convenient use later. When it is necessary to dump the peeled potatoes, first rotate the turntable 1112, which then drives the fixed screw 1108 to start rotating, which in turn drives the externally threaded moving block 1111 to start moving, and at the same time drives the rotating rod 1110 connected to the top of the moving block 1111 to rotate to a vertical position. This lifts the fixed shell 1109, which in turn causes the peeling box 1 to tilt and rise. When the peeling box 1 tilts and rises, the rotating rod 1102 fixed inside the fixed plate 1103 will rotate within the two fixed blocks 1101, making it easier for the peeling box 1 to tilt. Then the gate 8 is pulled out, and the peeled potatoes can be quickly poured out through the discharge port 7. By tilting and pouring the peeling box 1, it is ensured that no potato residue will appear inside when pouring, making it more convenient for users.
[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
