Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nut processing technology, specifically a nut screening device. Background Technology

[0002] Nuts are a type of plant fruit or seed with a hard shell, and they are usually rich in nutrients. Nuts generally have a relatively hard shell, and the kernel inside is the main edible part. Therefore, currently available nuts are generally divided into shelled nuts and shelled nuts.

[0003] The outer shell of shelled nuts contains a large amount of impurities, and the kernel cannot be directly observed, making it impossible to determine whether the kernel is damaged. Shelled nuts generate a large amount of debris and impurities during the shelling process; therefore, both shelled and shelled nuts require sieving. (Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 215031159) U discloses a nut screening device, including a box body. The upper end of the box body is provided with a first screening device, and the lower end of the first screening device is provided with a second screening device. The first screening device includes a feed inlet, an inclined vibrating plate, and a blowing device. The vibrating plate and the top of the inner wall of the box body form a first screening channel. The bottom of the vibrating plate is provided with a vibrating motor. One end of the first screening channel is provided with a first discharge channel. The bottom of the vibrating plate is provided with a support plate. The blowing device is provided on the support plate. The bottom of the vibrating plate is provided with a guide plate. The guide plate, the support plate, and the vibrating plate form a blowing channel. The blowing channel extends upward and forms a first separation channel. The second screening device includes a plurality of guide plates provided on the side wall of the box body. The guide plates and the side wall of the box body and the support plate form a second screening channel.

[0004] The aforementioned nut screening device uses airflow generated by a fan to blow away impurities mixed in with the nuts. However, the airflow channel of the aforementioned nut screening device is relatively narrow, and the nuts pass through the channel for a very short time. When the airflow is weak, the effect of removing impurities is poor. When the airflow is strong, it will not only blow away the nuts and impurities together, but also allow the strong airflow to enter the collection box and then enter the box body through the separation port, causing the impurities in the box to form dust, which will not achieve a normal screening effect. Utility Model Content

The size of the ventilation plate is the same as the size of the vertical cylinder, so that the airflow can blow the nuts over a wide area, thereby solving the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0013] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the vibrating feeder is located above the feed cylinder, and both the vibrating feeder and the hopper are fixedly connected to the upright frame.

[0014] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the vibrating feeding assembly includes a conveyor frame, which is inclined and corresponds to the position of the discharge port of the hopper, and a plurality of conveyor plates for transferring nuts are uniformly fixedly connected to the inner side of the conveyor frame.

[0015] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the two sides of the conveyor frame and the end away from the feed cylinder are all fixedly connected to the connecting frame 1. The bottom of the multiple connecting frames 1 is fixedly connected to multiple springs.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. In this utility model, the airflow generated by the blower is blown into the vertical cylinder through the ventilation plate, and blows the nuts passing through the ventilation plate, blowing the shells and other impurities in the nuts upward along the vertical cylinder into the separator cylinder.

[0020] 3. In this utility model, the nuts in the hopper fall onto the conveyor plate, which continuously vibrates and lowers the nuts to the feed cylinder, allowing the nuts to move in an orderly manner without piling up. This ensures the blowing effect of the airflow and prevents impurities from entering the discharge cylinder directly without contacting the airflow, thus ensuring the normal operation of the screening process.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-8 In this embodiment of the present invention, a nut screening device includes a screening component 2, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a blower 1; a vibrating feeding component 4 is provided on one side of the screening component 2, and a hopper 5 is provided on the top of the vibrating feeding component 4;

[0033] The screening assembly 2 includes a vertical cylinder 21, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the air outlet of the blower 1; the top of the vertical cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the separator 24; a feed cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the side of the vertical cylinder 21 near the vibrating feed assembly 4, and a discharge cylinder 23 is fixedly connected to the side of the vertical cylinder 21 away from the vibrating feed assembly 4; a ventilation plate 28 is fixedly connected inside the vertical cylinder 21.

[0034] Both sides of the dividing cylinder 24 are fixedly connected to the air diffuser plate 25; the end of the dividing cylinder 24 away from the vertical cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the partition plate 29; the end of the dividing cylinder 24 away from the vertical cylinder 21 is provided with a slag discharge port 20 and a recovery port 210, wherein the slag discharge port 20 is fixedly connected to the slag discharge cylinder 26, the recovery port 210 is fixedly connected to the circulation cylinder 27, and the end of the circulation cylinder 27 away from the recovery port 210 is fixedly connected to the vertical cylinder 21.

[0035] The feed cylinder 22, discharge cylinder 23 and ventilation plate 28 are all inclined and have the same inclination angle; the sides of the ventilation plate 28 are all in contact with the inner wall of the vertical cylinder 21, and the height of the ventilation plate 28 is the same as the height of the bottom inner wall of the feed cylinder 22 and the discharge cylinder 23; the feed cylinder 22 and the discharge cylinder 23 are both connected to the vertical cylinder 21.

[0036] By adopting the above technical solution, the airflow generated by the blower 1 is blown into the vertical cylinder 21 through the ventilation plate 28, and blows the nuts passing through the ventilation plate 28, blowing the shells and other impurities in the nuts upward along the vertical cylinder 21 into the separator cylinder 24. The nuts then continue to move to the discharge cylinder 23 and enter the nut collection device through the discharge cylinder 23. The ventilation plate 28 is inclined and located in the vertical cylinder 21, so its area for airflow is large, which can increase the contact area between the nuts and the airflow and improve the screening effect.

[0037] In this embodiment, the separator 24 is arc-shaped, and the partition 29 is also arc-shaped, dividing the interior of the separator 24 away from the vertical cylinder 21 into an outer cavity and an inner cavity; the slag discharge port 20 is connected to the outer cavity, and the recovery port 210 is connected to the inner cavity.

[0038] The circulating cylinder 27 is located above the discharge cylinder 23 and the ventilation plate 28, and the circulating cylinder 27 is connected to the vertical cylinder 21; both the circulating cylinder 27 and the slag discharge cylinder 26 are inclined; the lower outer side of the vertical cylinder 21 and both sides of the slag discharge cylinder 26 are fixedly connected to the support frame 3.

[0039] By adopting the above technical solution, impurities and lighter nuts blown into the separator 24 by the airflow will be separated by the partition 29. The lightest impurities, such as dust and shells, will move along the top of the separator 24 and enter the outer cavity. The lighter nuts, because they are heavier than dust and shells, will enter the inner cavity and re-enter the vertical cylinder 21 along the circulation cylinder 27 for secondary screening, further improving the screening effect.

[0040] In this embodiment, the vibrating feeder 4 is located above the feed cylinder 22, and both the vibrating feeder 4 and the hopper 5 are fixedly connected to the upright frame 6.

Both the motor 41 and the reducer 42 are fixedly connected to the upright frame 6.

[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the airflow generated by the blower 1 is blown into the vertical cylinder 21 through the ventilation plate 28, and blows the nuts passing through the ventilation plate 28, blowing the shells and other impurities in the nuts upward along the vertical cylinder 21 into the separator cylinder 24. The nuts then continue to move to the discharge cylinder 23 and enter the nut collection device through the discharge cylinder 23. The ventilation plate 28 is inclined and located in the vertical cylinder 21, so its area for airflow is large, which can increase the contact area between the nuts and the airflow and improve the screening effect.

[0046] Impurities and lighter nuts blown into the separator 24 by the airflow will be separated by the partition 29. The lightest impurities, such as dust and shells, will move along the top of the separator 24 and enter the outer cavity. The lighter nuts, because they are heavier than dust and shells, will enter the inner cavity and re-enter the vertical cylinder 21 along the circulation cylinder 27 for secondary screening, further improving the screening effect.

[0047] Nuts in hopper 5 fall onto conveyor plate 49, which vibrates continuously to transfer the nuts to feed cylinder 22, allowing the nuts to move in an orderly manner without clogging, ensuring the blowing effect of the airflow, and preventing impurities from entering the discharge cylinder 23 directly without contacting the airflow, thus ensuring the normal operation of the screening process.
