Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a quail egg peeling device that prevents sticking. Background Technology
[0002] Quail eggs are a highly nutritious food and are widely popular in the market.
[0003] Due to the small size and fragile shells of quail eggs, traditional manual shelling or simple mechanical devices struggle to balance efficiency and integrity, often resulting in egg breakage or incomplete shelling due to improper operation. For example, some equipment uses physical crushing or friction for shelling, but without pre-treatment to prevent adhesion between the shell and the egg, the shell easily adheres to the albumen, leading to residual shell fragments or damaged albumen structure after shelling, directly affecting the quality of the finished product. Furthermore, traditional equipment often relies on a single power source to drive the shelling components, which can easily cause quail eggs to break due to uneven rotation speed or improper force control, further reducing the yield. Adhesion is particularly prominent: during shelling, shell fragments or incompletely peeled membranes easily adhere to the egg surface, potentially re-adheding during subsequent processing or packaging, increasing cleaning difficulty and potentially posing a risk of microbial contamination. These problems result in high costs for quail egg shelling, and the finished product's appearance and hygiene fail to meet the high standards of modern food processing.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a quail egg peeling device that prevents sticking, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a quail egg peeling device that prevents sticking.
[0006] Technical Solution: A quail egg shelling device for preventing adhesion includes a support frame, a processing chamber, an ultrasonic generator, an ultrasonic transducer, a mesh frame, a handle, a first motor, a peeling wheel, gears, a discharge frame, and a collection frame. The processing chamber is installed in the upper part of the support frame. The upper front side of the processing chamber is a sealing treatment area. The upper rear side and lower inner part of the processing chamber extend continuously and are divided into a falling processing area. An ultrasonic generator is installed in front of the sealing treatment area. An ultrasonic transducer is connected to the side of the ultrasonic generator. The output end of the ultrasonic transducer extends into the inner part of the sealing treatment area. Both the upper part of the falling processing area and the lower part of the processing chamber are equipped with movable wire frames. Handles are fixed on both sides of the upper part of the wire frames. The first motor is installed on one side of the lower rear of the processing chamber. The lower part of the falling processing area is a rectangular inclined frame. Peeling wheels that are close to each other are rotatably connected on both sides of the rectangular inclined frame. Two meshing gears are rotatably connected on one side of the lower rear of the processing chamber. One of the gears is connected to the output shaft of the first motor. The rotating shafts of the peeling wheels are connected to the central shafts of the corresponding gears. A discharge frame is slidably connected to the lower part of the rectangular inclined frame. The rear of the discharge frame is open. A collection frame is connected to the front of the rectangular inclined frame.
[0007] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the processing compartment has an inclined ramp channel in the middle, which is closely connected to the rear of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing compartment.
[0008] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the assembly also includes a cam, a protrusion, and a tension spring.

Tension springs are connected to the rear sides of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber and the rear sides of the discharge frame, respectively.
[0009] In addition, it is particularly preferred that the assembly also includes a fixing plate, columns, a limiting plate and a compression spring.

Each column is connected to a limiting plate at its top. The limiting plate covers the top of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber. A compression spring is connected between the bottom of the limiting plate and the fixing plate.
[0010] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the assembly also includes a second motor and an auger feed rod. The second motor is installed on one side of the upper part of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber, and an inclined auger feed rod that is close to the stripping wheel is rotatably installed on the upper part of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber. One side of the auger feed rod is connected to the output shaft of the second motor.
[0011] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the auger feed rod is made of rubber material.
[0012] 1. This utility model uses high-frequency vibration waves from an ultrasonic generator and transducer to soften the adhesion between the inner membrane of the quail eggshell and the egg body, significantly reducing the risk of adhesion between the eggshell and the egg body during the peeling process, and solving the problem of high breakage rate caused by adhesion in traditional equipment; the first motor drives the gear set to rotate the peeling wheel in the opposite direction, forming shearing force and friction force, realizing a fast and uniform peeling operation, and avoiding quail egg breakage caused by differences in rotation speed or uneven force.
[0013] 2. This utility model uses a connecting structure between a wire mesh frame, an inclined sliding channel, and a rectangular inclined frame to allow quail eggs to automatically slide between the sealed processing area and the shelling area, reducing manual intervention and improving continuous production efficiency. The wire mesh frame is movable in the processing chamber with a handle, which facilitates loading, unloading, and cleaning, adapting to the processing needs of different batches of quail eggs and enhancing the flexibility and practicality of the equipment.
[0014] 3. This utility model uses the periodic contact between the cam and the protrusion to push the discharge frame to slide, and the rebound force of the tension spring to realize timed opening and closing, accurately controlling the discharge rhythm of quail eggs after shelling, and preventing material stagnation or overflow.
[0015] 4.

[0016] 5. This utility model utilizes a rubber auger feed rod with a soft surface and low coefficient of friction to reduce scratches when pushing shelled quail eggs, while also reducing residue adhesion and further preventing secondary adhesion; the inclined structure of the auger feed rod gradually pushes the quail eggs to the collection area, and combined with the drive of the second motor, ensures orderly flow of materials and avoids accumulation or jamming.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] Example: A quail egg peeling device to prevent sticking, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the equipment includes a support frame 1, a processing chamber 2, an ultrasonic generator 3, an ultrasonic transducer 4, a mesh frame 5, a handle 6, a first motor 7, a peeling wheel 8, a gear 9, a discharge frame 10, and a collection frame 11. The support frame 1 serves as the base of the equipment, stably supporting the processing chamber and all mechanical components, ensuring the overall stability of the equipment during operation, and preventing structural damage caused by vibration or displacement. The processing chamber 2 is installed in the upper part of the support frame 1. The upper front side of the processing chamber 2 is a sealing treatment area. The upper rear side and lower inner part of the processing chamber 2 extend continuously and are divided into a falling processing area. An ultrasonic generator 3 is installed in front of the sealing treatment area. An ultrasonic transducer 4 is connected to the side of the ultrasonic generator 3. The output end of the ultrasonic transducer 4 extends into the inner part of the sealing treatment area. The ultrasonic generator 3 generates high-frequency vibration waves, which are transmitted to the sealing treatment area through the ultrasonic transducer 4 to soften the adhesion between the quail eggshell and the inner membrane of the egg. The ultrasonic generator 3 is connected to the ultrasonic transducer through a cable or pipe. The output end of the ultrasonic generator 3 extends into the sealing treatment area through a sealed interface. A mesh frame 5 is movably placed on the upper part of both the sealing treatment area and the falling processing area. Handles 6 are fixed on both sides of the upper part of the mesh frame 5 for holding quail eggs and for easy loading and unloading by operators. Warm water is allowed to seep in to assist ultrasonic treatment. A first motor 7 is installed on the lower rear side of the processing chamber 2. The lower part of the falling processing area is a rectangular inclined frame. An inclined sliding channel is provided in the middle of the processing chamber 2. The inclined sliding channel is tightly connected to the rear of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber 2. Peeling wheels 8 are rotatably connected to each other on both sides of the rectangular inclined frame. Two meshing gears 9 are rotatably connected on the lower rear side of the processing chamber 2. One gear 9 is connected to the output shaft of the first motor 7. The rotating shaft of the peeling wheel 8 is connected to the central shaft of the corresponding gear 9. A discharge frame 10 is slidably connected to the lower part of the rectangular inclined frame. The discharge frame 10 has an open rear design. A collection frame 11 is connected to the front of the rectangular inclined frame.
[0024] like Figure 3As shown, it also includes a cam 12, a protrusion 13, and a tension spring 14. The output shaft of the first motor 7 is externally connected to the cam 12, and the rear part of the discharge frame 10 is connected to the protrusion 13. The cam 12 and the protrusion 13 are in rotational contact, and the protrusion 13 is in contact with the cam 12, converting the rotational motion into a linear pushing action, driving the discharge frame 10 to slide along the guide rail. The two sides of the rear part of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber 2 are connected to the two sides of the rear part of the discharge frame 10 respectively, providing a rebound force for the discharge frame 10, ensuring that it quickly resets after the discharge action is completed, and avoiding material retention.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a fixed plate 15, a column 16, a limiting plate 17, and a compression spring 18. The fixed plates 15 are symmetrically connected to both sides of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber 2. The columns 16 are slidably connected inside the fixed plates 15. The top of each column 16 is connected to a limiting plate 17. The limiting plate 17 covers the top of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber 2. The column 16 connects the fixed plate 15 and the limiting plate 17, allowing the limiting plate 17 to move slightly up and down with the flow of quail eggs, reducing direct contact between the eggs and metal parts. A compression spring 18 is connected between the bottom of the limiting plate 17 and the fixed plate 15 to provide buffering force, allowing the limiting plate 17 to move slightly up and down with the flow of quail eggs and absorbing the vibration energy when the peeling wheel 8 rotates.
[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a second motor 19 and an auger feed rod 20. The second motor 19 is installed on one side of the upper part of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber 2. The auger feed rod 20, which is inclined and close to the peeling wheel 8, is rotatably installed in the upper part of the rectangular inclined frame of the processing chamber 2. The second motor 19 drives the auger feed rod 20 to rotate, gradually pushing the shelled quail eggs to the front of the rectangular inclined frame to ensure low damage during the conveying process. The auger feed rod 20 is made of rubber material, and one side of the auger feed rod 20 is connected to the output shaft of the second motor 19.
[0027] In use, quail eggs are placed in the mesh frame 5, warm water is added, and the ultrasonic generator 3 is activated. High-frequency vibration waves are emitted into the sealed treatment area through the ultrasonic transducer 4 connected to the side. The high-frequency energy of the ultrasound penetrates the surface of the quail egg, softening the adhesion between the shell and the egg body, while reducing the risk of adhesion between the shell and the egg body during the subsequent shell-peeling process.
[0028] After ultrasonic treatment, the quail eggs slide from the sealed processing area to the self-falling processing area via an inclined ramp channel in the middle of processing chamber 2. The inclined ramp channel design ensures that the quail eggs can flow naturally by gravity, avoiding accumulation or blockage. The tight connection between the ramp channel and the rectangular inclined frame further guides the quail eggs into the shell-peeling area. Within the rectangular inclined frame of the self-falling processing area, the peeling wheel 8 rotates under the drive of the first motor 7. The first motor 7 transmits power to the peeling wheels 8 on both sides through a gear set 9. The two peeling wheels 8 approach each other and rotate in opposite directions, generating shearing and frictional forces to peel the quail eggshells from the egg. The rotating shaft of the peeling wheel 8 is directly connected to the central shaft of the gear 9, ensuring synchronous rotation and uniform force, and preventing damage to the quail eggs due to differences in rotation speed.
[0029] During the shelling process, the uprights 16 and the limiting plate 17 inside the fixing plate 15 provide a cushioning effect through the compression spring 18. The limiting plate 17 covers the top of the rectangular inclined frame and moves slightly up and down with the flow of quail eggs, reducing direct contact between the egg and the metal parts and preventing secondary adhesion caused by vibration or friction.
[0030] Meanwhile, the compression spring 18 at the bottom of the limiting plate 17 absorbs the vibration generated by the rotation of the peeling wheel 8, further stabilizing the position of the quail eggs. The second motor 19 drives the auger feed rod 20 to rotate, and its inclined structure gradually pushes the quail eggs to the front of the rectangular inclined frame. The auger feed rod 20 is made of rubber material, with a soft surface and low coefficient of friction, which can avoid scratching the eggs and reduce the adhesion of shelling residue, preventing the quail eggs from re-sticking during the transportation process.
[0031] When the quail eggs are pushed to the front of the rectangular inclined frame, the output shaft of the first motor 7 drives the cam 12 to rotate. The cam 12 contacts the protrusion 13 at the rear of the discharge frame 10, and periodically pushes the discharge frame 10 to slide along the guide rail, opening the lower outlet of the rectangular inclined frame at regular intervals. The tension spring 14 at the rear of the discharge frame 10 provides a rebound force to ensure that it quickly returns to its original position after the discharge action is completed, avoiding material retention. The shelled quail eggs finally fall into the collection frame 11, completing the entire shelling process.
