Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water chestnut peeling, and in particular to a water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection. Background Technology

[0002] Water chestnut, scientifically known as *Echinochloa crus-galli*, has a purplish-black skin and white flesh. It has a crisp and juicy texture and is rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. It can be eaten raw or used in dishes and soups. Stir-fried water chestnuts are refreshing and delicious, and also have the effects of clearing heat, moistening the lungs, and quenching thirst. It is a good product that can be used for both medicinal and culinary purposes.

[0003] Water chestnuts can be eaten directly after peeling and washing, saving you the trouble of processing them, which is suitable for a fast-paced lifestyle. Water chestnuts made into canned goods are sealed and preserved after being washed, peeled, sterilized and other processes, retaining their crisp and tender texture. They can be eaten directly or used to make desserts and dishes, extending their shelf life and making them convenient for storage and transportation, meeting the consumption needs of different scenarios.

[0004] Existing methods for automating water chestnut peeling involve manually attaching the water chestnut to a suction cup. The suction cup has a peeler and a root cutter on either side. After loading, the suction cup rotates, and the peeler, controlled by a cylinder and motor, adheres to the water chestnut and rotates to peel it. After peeling, the cutter cuts the root of the water chestnut, causing it to detach from the suction cup. However, the cutting blade is located on the side of the suction cup, meaning there's a risk of fingers touching the blade during manual loading. Since no protective devices are provided, manual loading poses a safety hazard.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a horseshoe peeling machine with safety protection to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] First Embodiment

[0025] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first embodiment of a water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The enlarged schematic diagram at point A is shown. A horseshoe peeling machine with safety protection includes: a working box 1;

[0026] A connecting platform 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the front side of the work box 1. A cutting device 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the front of the work box 1. The cutting device 3 includes a connecting box 31, a first lifting member 32, and a cutting blade 33.

[0027] The protective device 4 is disposed on one side of the top of the connecting platform 2, and the protective device 4 includes a second lifting member 41 and a protective baffle 42.

[0028] The second lifting member 41 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the connecting platform 2, and the protective baffle 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the output shaft of the second lifting member 41.

[0029] The connecting box 31 is fixedly installed on one side of the front of the working box 1, and the two sets of the first lifting members 32 are respectively fixedly installed on both sides inside the connecting box 31. The cutting blade 33 is fixedly installed at the output shaft end of the first lifting member 32.

[0030] A sliding rotatable bracket 10 is slidably mounted on the other side of the surface of the connecting platform 2, and a peeler 6 is provided at the bottom of the surface of the sliding rotatable bracket 10.

[0031] A collection box 8 is provided at the bottom of the front of the work box 1, and multiple peeling grooves 9 are formed on the surface of the collection box 8.

[0032] The sliding rotatable bracket 10 is moved by a hydraulic cylinder to slide back and forth. When the peeler 6 is not peeling, the sliding rotatable bracket 10 slides backward, so that the peeler 6 moves to the rear side of the surface of the rotating suction cup 5. After the water chestnut 7 inserts its root into the suction hole in the middle of the rotating suction cup 5 and is restricted, the peeler 6 moves forward through the sliding rotatable bracket 10, so that the peeler 6 fits against the rear side of the surface of the water chestnut 7. Then, the motor output shaft rotates to drive the bracket and the peeler 6 to rotate. The rotating suction cup 5 also rotates at the same time, so that the water chestnut is peeled from back to front by the peeler 6. This is a mature technology.

[0033] After peeling, the cutting device 3 controls the cutting blade 33 to move towards the rotating suction cup 5, completely cutting off the root of the hoof 7, causing the hoof 7 to fall into the collection box 8 and roll down to the tilted downward side. The peeled skin falls into the peeling groove 9 and falls downward. A collection frame can be installed at the bottom of the collection box 8 to collect the peeled skin, which is an existing mature technology.

[0034] The lifting component is a hydraulic cylinder structure.

[0035] The working principle of the water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0036] During operation, the output axis of the second lifting member 41 moves downward to push the connecting rod and drive the protective baffle 42 to move downward. The protective baffle 42 is positioned between the rotating suction cup 5 and the cutting blade 33. When the cutting blade 33 needs to cut the root of the horseshoe 7, the output axis of the second lifting member 41 moves upward to pull the protective baffle 42 upward, so that the cutting blade 33 can be pushed by the first lifting member 32 to cut the root of the horseshoe 7.

[0037] Compared with related technologies, the water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] This utility model provides a water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection. By setting a movable baffle between the cutting blade 33 and the rotating suction cup 5, when cutting stops, the protective baffle 42 blocks the surface of the cutting blade 33, making it convenient for the operator to install the root of the water chestnut 7 into the rotating suction cup 5. The operator's fingers are less likely to touch the cutting blade 33. When cutting is required, the output shaft of the second lifting component 41 pulls the protective baffle 42 upward to move it away from the rotating suction cup 5 and the cutting blade 33, making it convenient for the cutting blade 33 to cut the root of the water chestnut 7. This device has a simple structure and is highly practical. When manually loading the water chestnut, the separation between the cutting blade 33 and the rotating suction cup 5 protects the water chestnut from being cut by the blade, improving the safety of the operator and enhancing the safety of the equipment.

[0039] Second Embodiment

[0040] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 4 Based on the first embodiment of this application, which provides a water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection, the second embodiment of this application proposes another water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection. The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the separate implementation of the first embodiment.

[0041] Specifically, the second embodiment of this application provides a water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection, which differs in that the water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection has a vibration component 11 provided on one side of the bottom front of the working box 1. The vibration component 11 includes a servo motor 111, a rotating column 112 and a striking block 113. The servo motor 111 is fixedly installed inside the bottom of the working box 1. The rotating column 112 is fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the servo motor 111. The striking block 113 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the rotating column 112.

[0042] A rotating roller 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the inside of the collection box 8, and one end of the rotating roller 12 is rotatably installed inside the working box 1.

[0043] The rotation of the rotating column 112 does not affect the collection box 8. When the tapping block 113 on the surface of the rotating column 112 rotates to the top, it will squeeze the collection box 8. The collection box 8 rotates slightly through the rotating roller 12. When the tapping block 113 moves to the other side, it does not affect the collection box 8. The collection box 8 rotates back to its original position under the influence of gravity through the rotating roller 12.

[0044] A water collection bucket is installed on the side of the work box 1, at the bottom of the collection box 8 which is tilted downwards, to collect the peeled water chestnuts.

[0045] The working principle of the water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0046] During operation, the collection box 8 is first rotated and mounted on the surface of the work box 1 by the rotating roller 12. The output shaft of the servo motor 111 rotates, driving the rotating column 112 to rotate. The rotating column 112 rotates at the bottom of the collection box 8. The striking block 113 on the surface of the rotating column 112 intermittently strikes and squeezes the bottom of the collection box 8, causing the collection box 8 to rotate upward slightly by the rotating roller 12. When the striking block 113 continues to rotate with the rotating column 112 and moves out of the range of influence on the collection box 8, the collection box 8 is no longer affected by the striking block 113 and rotates downward due to gravity. This process is repeated, causing the collection box 8 to shake and shake off the horseshoes remaining inside the box, which then slide into the water collection bucket.

[0047] Compared with related technologies, the water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0048] This utility model provides a water chestnut peeling machine with safety protection. The collection box 8 is rotated and mounted on the surface of the working box 1 by a rotating roller 12. The output shaft of the servo motor 111 rotates and drives the rotating column 112 to rotate. The rotating column 112 rotates at the bottom of the collection box 8. The striking block 113 on the surface of the rotating column 112 intermittently strikes and squeezes the bottom of the collection box 8, causing the collection box 8 to rotate and shake slightly by the rotating roller 12, so that the water chestnuts 7 remaining on the surface of the collection box 8 are shaken off. This device has a simple structure, strong practicality, improves the smoothness of the water chestnut peeling machine, avoids water chestnut 7 residue, and facilitates the collection of peeled water chestnuts.
