[0003] In existing technologies, during cassava harvesting, stones and other impurities often get mixed in due to mechanical digging and soil adhesion. These stones and impurities pose several hazards to subsequent processing: during the cassava conveying process, stones may clog the feed inlet of the screw conveyor, causing equipment downtime; after entering the crusher, the high-speed rotating blades collide with the stones, not only shortening the blade life by 40%-60%, but also potentially causing blade breakage, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, it is necessary to design a cassava stone removal machine to solve the above problems.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood through the specific circumstances.

[0032] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0033] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model provides a cassava destoner, comprising:

[0034] Stone removal machine 1 is equipped with a stone removal mechanism. It should be noted that the stone removal mechanism can quickly remove fine stones from cassava, which facilitates the subsequent conveying, crushing and processing of cassava.

[0035] The stone removal mechanism includes a power motor 3, a rotating plate 4, a cassava adding hopper 5, an upper stone filter pipe 6, a connecting pipe 7, a lower stone filter pipe 8, a hydraulic cylinder 11, a lower protective cover 12, a rotating shaft 13, a connecting rod 14, and a baffle 17.

[0036] The output end of the power motor 3 is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 4, the rotating plate 4 is fixedly connected to the cassava adding hopper 5, the upper filter stone pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the cassava adding hopper 5 and the connecting pipe 7, the lower filter stone pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 7, the hydraulic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the lower protective cover 12, the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably mounted on the lower protective cover 12, and the connecting rod 14 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 13 and the baffle 17.

[0037] With the above structure, cassava is added into the cassava feeding hopper 5. The power motor 3 is started, which causes the rotating plate 4 to drive the cassava feeding hopper 5 to rotate. This causes the upper filter stone pipe 6, connecting pipe 7, lower filter stone pipe 8, rotating shaft 13, connecting rod 14, and baffle 17 to rotate synchronously. This allows friction between the cassava and between the cassava and the filter stone pipe, removing the adhering fine stones. The fine stone impurities are then discharged through the upper filter stone pipe 6 and the lower filter stone pipe 8. After the stone removal is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 11 is started, causing the lower protective cover 12, rotating shaft 13, connecting rod 14, and baffle 17 to move down synchronously. The discharge port of the lower filter stone pipe 8 is exposed, and the cassava is discharged. This process can quickly remove the fine stones from the cassava, facilitating subsequent conveying, crushing, and processing of the cassava.

[0038] Specifically, the stone removal mechanism also includes a support 15 and a movable part 16. The support 15 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 14, and the movable part 16 is vertically slidably installed on the support 15. The top of the movable part 16 is fixedly connected to the lower stone filter pipe 8.

[0039] The above structure allows the connecting rod 14 to slide stably in the vertical direction, and also facilitates the synchronous rotation of the connecting rod 14 and the lower filter tube 8.

[0040] Specifically, the support member 15 has a movable hole at its top, and a sealing gasket is fixedly installed in the movable hole. The movable member 16 is slidably installed in the movable hole, and the movable member 16 is in sealing contact with the sealing gasket. It should be noted that this facilitates the vertical movement of the support member 15 and prevents impurities from falling into the movable hole.

[0041] Specifically, a top plate 2 is fixedly installed inside the destoning machine body 1, and a power motor 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 2. An assembly rod 10 is fixedly installed inside the destoning machine body 1, and the assembly rod 10 is fixedly connected to the hydraulic cylinder 11. It should be noted that this facilitates the assembly of the power motor 3 and the hydraulic cylinder 11.

[0042] Specifically, an upper protective cover 9 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the connecting pipe 7. The upper filter stone pipe 6 is located above the upper protective cover 9, and the lower filter stone pipe 8 is located inside the upper protective cover 9. It should be noted that the stones and impurities falling from the upper filter stone pipe 6 fall onto the upper protective cover 9 and are then guided down from the slope, which can prevent the falling stones and impurities from falling into the lower filter stone pipe 8.

[0043] Specifically, the side of the baffle 17 contacts the lower stone filter pipe 8, and the bottom of the stone removal machine body 1 is provided with a discharge hole. It should be noted that this facilitates the discharge of stone impurities and also facilitates the discharge of cassava after stone removal.

[0044] Working principle:

[0045] S1: In the initial state, the hydraulic cylinder 11 drives the lower protective cover 12, the rotating shaft 13, the connecting rod 14 and the baffle 17 to a higher position. At this time, the baffle 17 is in close contact with the lower filter pipe 8, blocking the discharge port of the lower filter pipe 8 and preventing the cassava from being discharged from the lower filter pipe 8 in advance during the stone removal process. The cassava containing stone impurities is added into the cassava adding hopper 5. The power motor 3 is started, and the output end of the power motor 3 drives the rotating plate 4 to rotate. Since the rotating plate 4 is fixedly connected to the cassava adding hopper 5, the cassava adding hopper 5 will rotate accordingly. At the same time, the upper filter pipe 6, the connecting pipe 7 and the lower filter pipe 8, which are fixedly connected to the cassava adding hopper 5, will also rotate synchronously. The rotating shaft 13, the connecting rod 14 and the baffle 17 will also rotate together.

[0046] S2: During the rotation process, friction occurs between the cassava tubes and between the cassava tubes and the upper and lower filter tubes 6 and 8, which removes the fine stone impurities adhering to the cassava tubes. The removed fine stone impurities are discharged through the upper and lower filter tubes 6 and 8. The upper filter tube 6 is located above the upper protective cover 9. Stone impurities falling from the upper filter tube 6 fall onto the upper protective cover 9. The inclined surface of the upper protective cover 9 guides the stone impurities to be discharged from other channels, preventing them from falling into the lower filter tube 8 and ensuring the stone removal effect.

[0047] S3: After the fine stone impurities in the cassava are removed, the hydraulic cylinder 11 is started. The hydraulic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 11 extends and pushes the lower protective cover 12, the rotating shaft 13, the connecting rod 14 and the baffle 17 to move down synchronously. As it moves down, the baffle 17 separates from the lower stone filter pipe 8, and the discharge port of the lower stone filter pipe 8 is exposed. At this time, the cassava after stone removal is discharged through the lower stone filter pipe 8 and the discharge hole at the bottom of the stone removal machine body 1 under the action of gravity, thus completing the entire stone removal and discharge process.

[0048] The above provides a detailed description of the cassava destone machine provided by this utility model. Specific embodiments have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
