Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grass fruit stalk-fruit separation technology, specifically a stalk-fruit separation device. Background Technology

[0002] The fruit of the cardamom plant has a strong aroma. It is a capsule that grows densely, is oblong or oblong-elliptic, and is 2.5 to 4.5 cm long and about 2 cm wide. It is hairless and has a persistent style remnant at the top, which is cylindrical. The pericarp turns red when ripe. The fruit stalk is 0.2 to 0.5 cm long and has persistent bracts at the base. When harvesting cardamom, it is usually necessary to use tools such as sickles to cut the cardamom with the fruit stalk from the rhizome and then separate the fruit from the fruit stalk.

[0003] The existing methods for separating the fruit body from the stalk of cardamom mainly involve manual removal or small-scale machinery. However, since the stalk of cardamom is columnar and carries multiple fruit bodies on a single stalk, manual or small-scale machinery is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also makes it difficult to screen the separated fruit bodies as they are mixed together, thus greatly affecting the efficiency of cardamom stalk-fruit separation. To address these issues, we provide a stalk-fruit separation device. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-3 A stalk-and-fruit separation device includes a base plate 1. Multiple support legs 221 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base plate 1, and reinforcing plates 222 are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the support legs 221. An outer frame is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1. Multiple discharge ports are provided at the bottom of the outer frame for discharging the separated cardamom and stalks. The upper sides of the outer frame expand outwards and are arc-shaped to facilitate the feeding of cardamom with unseparated stalks into the frame. The outer frame is enclosed by crisscrossing horizontal and vertical steel bars.

[0023] A separation mechanism is provided above the base plate 1. The separation mechanism includes a rotating shaft 201, the lower end of which is rotatably connected to the base plate 1. Specifically, a first bearing 223 is fixedly embedded in the upper surface of the base plate 1, and the first bearing 223 is connected to the rotating shaft 201. The rotating shaft 201 is perpendicular to the base plate 1. A fixing plate 206 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer frame. The upper end of the rotating shaft 201 passes through the interior of the fixing plate 206, and the rotating shaft 201 is rotatably connected to the fixing plate 206. Specifically, a second bearing 224 is sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 201, and the second bearing 224 is fixedly embedded in the interior of the fixing plate 206. Two fixing rods 207 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 201, and a separation rod 208 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the fixing rods 207. Both the fixing rods 207 and the separation rods 208 are cylindrical, which can reduce damage to the fruit during rotation. When the rotating shaft 201 rotates, it drives the fixed rod 207 and the separating rod 208 to rotate. The agitation of the fixed rod 207 and the separating rod 208 can separate the cardamom from the fruit stalk.

[0024] A motor 209 (or other rotating power components, such as a gasoline engine) is mounted above the fixed plate 206. A connecting shaft 210 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 209. A slot 211 is formed at the top of the rotating shaft 201, and the bottom end of the connecting shaft 210 is engaged inside the slot 211. Four support plates 212 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed plate 206. A positioning plate 213 is fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the four support plates 212, and the connecting shaft 210 is located inside the positioning plate 213. Reinforcing ribs 225 are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plates 212, and the bottom surface of the reinforcing ribs 225 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 206.

[0025] like Figure 4As shown, furthermore, each support plate 212 has a movably hinged positioning buckle 214 on its upper surface, and each positioning buckle 214 has a positioning bolt 215 threaded inside. A handrail 216 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the motor 209, and the positioning buckles 214 are used to fix the handrail 216. When installing the motor 209, flip the positioning buckle 214 open, place the handrail 216 into the pre-drilled arc-shaped opening of the positioning buckle 214, then close the positioning buckle 214 and tighten the positioning bolts 215. When disassembling, remove the positioning bolts 215 and open the positioning buckle 214.

[0026] Working principle: When in use, first use fasteners such as pins, along with reinforcing plate 222 and support leg 221, to fix the device in the working position. Then, the output end of motor 209 is connected to the top of rotating shaft 201 by connecting shaft 210 and slot 211. Then, the position of motor 209 is positioned by support plate 212 and positioning plate 213. Finally, the handle 216 of motor 209 is fixed by positioning buckle 214 and positioning bolt 215, so that motor 209 does not need to be manually controlled by the operator when working. Then, the rotation of motor 209 drives the rotating shaft 201 to rotate through connecting shaft 210 and slot 211, which in turn drives the fixed rod 207 and separating rod 208 to rotate. At this time, the staff only needs to put the cardamom to be separated into the outer frame. When there is a lot of material squeezed in the frame, with the rotation of fixed rod 207 and separating rod 208, combined with the friction generated by the inner wall of the outer frame on the cardamom, the movement of fixed rod 207 and separating rod 208 and the relative displacement of cardamom and cardamom stem will cause fixed rod 207 and separating rod 208 to break the cardamom stem connecting the cardamom, thereby separating the cardamom from the cardamom stem (because cardamom is harvested in a grape-like bunch shape but has high hardness, and the main stem is thicker and the branch stems are thinner, the branch stems are usually broken during separation to separate the cardamom. The unseparated bunch of cardamom has a large overall volume and cannot be discharged from the discharge port). After separation, the cardamom is freed from the constraint of the stem and will eventually be discharged from the discharge port during the stirring process.

[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
