Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air separator technology, specifically an air separator for sesame production. Background Technology

[0002] The working principle of an air separator is to use wind power to separate impurities. The material enters from the feed hopper and the wind power generated by the internal fan blows out the dust and light impurities. As a result, the gaps between the materials increase, allowing the wind power to better extract the light impurities and dust, thus achieving preliminary cleaning.

[0003] In sesame production, an air separator is needed to blow out dust and impurities from the sesame seeds to achieve a cleaning effect. However, when using existing air separators, the feed hopper is truncated cone-shaped and the feed inlet is small. As the sesame seeds are fed into the feed hopper, they are easily squeezed together and blocked, which affects the normal air separation and cleaning of the sesame seeds. Utility Model Content

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

When sesame is produced, sesame is first put into the feed hopper 12 and the air force generated by the fan inside the air separator body 1 blows the dust and impurities out from the air outlet 13, while the air-separated sesame is discharged from the discharge hopper 14.

[0027] The unblocking mechanism includes a spiral blade 2, a rotating rod 21 fixedly connected to the surface of the spiral blade 2, a vertical rod 22 fixedly connected to the inner surface of the feed hopper 12, an mounting block 23 mounted on the surface of the vertical rod 22, a groove 24 formed on the surface of the mounting block 23, a first side plate 25 fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical rod 22, a second side plate 26 fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting block 23, a threaded block 27 fixedly connected to the surface of the first side plate 25, an insertion hole 28 formed on the surface of the second side plate 26, a fastener 29 abuttingly connected to the surface of the second side plate 26, and a ring block 210 and a handle 211 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 21. Under the action of the spiral blade 2, sesame seeds added into the feed hopper 12 can be moved towards the feed inlet by the rotation of the spiral blade 2 to prevent blockage.

[0028] Furthermore, the rotating rod 21 is rotatably connected to the surface of the groove 24.

With the connection of the two sets of upright rods 22 and mounting blocks 23, the rotating rod 21 and the spiral plate 2 can be supported and placed. The surface of the handle 211 is "L" shaped. By rotating the handle 211, the rotating rod 21 and the spiral plate 2 can be moved together, and the rotating rod 21 can rotate on the surface of the groove 24. The surface of the groove 24 is semi-circular, and the two sets of grooves 24 spliced ​​together can provide a position for the rotating rod 21 to be installed.

With the connection of the two sets of first side plates 25 and second side plates 26, the upright 22 and the mounting block 23 can be connected. Threaded blocks 27 penetrate the surface of the second side plates 26 through the insertion holes 28. With the connection of threaded blocks 27, insertion holes 28, and fasteners 29, the first side plates 25 and the second side plates 26 can be disassembled and assembled. The fasteners 29 consist of nuts and short rods, and the short rods are "L"-shaped and are provided in two sets installed on both sides of the nuts.

[0030] Furthermore, two sets of ring blocks 210 are provided, and the two sets of ring blocks 210 are installed at both ends of the rotating rod 21. Each set of ring blocks 210 consists of two ring blocks 210. Each set of ring blocks 210 is abutted and connected to both sides of the upright rod 22 and the mounting block 23. The outer diameter of the ring block 210 is larger than the diameter of the groove 24. Under the action of the ring block 210, the rotating rod 21 can be rotated and limited to the surface of the upright rod 22 and the mounting block 23. Moreover, the rotation of the rotating rod 21 can drive the ring block 210 to slide on the surface of the upright rod 22 and the mounting block 23.

[0031] Furthermore, the surface of the discharge hopper 14 is provided with a guiding mechanism, which includes a guiding plate 3. The guiding plate 3 is movably connected to the outer surface of the discharge hopper 14. A connecting plate 31 is fixedly connected to the surface of the guiding plate 3. A rotating hole 32 is opened on the surface of the connecting plate 31. A rotating block 33 and a screw 34 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the discharge hopper 14. A slot 35 is opened on the surface of the guiding plate 3. A nut 36 is abutted to the surface of the guiding plate 3. Through the U-shaped cross-section of the guiding plate 3, the sesame seeds discharged from the discharge hopper 14 can be discharged along the direction of the guiding plate 3, and the inner surface of the guiding plate 3 is attached to both sides of the outer surface of the discharge hopper 14.

[0032] Furthermore, there are two sets of connecting plates 31 and rotating blocks 33.

The diameter of the rotating hole 32 is the same as the diameter of the rotating block 33. The rotating block 33 is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating hole 32. With the connection between the rotating hole 32 and the rotating block 33, the connection between the guide plate 3 and the discharge hopper 14 can be realized, and the guide plate 3 can rotate around the rotating block 33 as the center and achieve angle adjustment.

[0033] Furthermore, the screw 34 is engaged with the surface of the slot 35, one end of the screw 34 is fixedly connected to the surface of the discharge hopper 14, and the other end of the screw 34 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the nut 36. The screw 34 is connected to the surface of the guide plate 3 through the slot 35. With the connection of the screw 34, the slot 35, and the nut 36, the position of the rotated guide plate 3 can be limited.

[0034] Working principle: Before using the air separator, first install the two ends of the rotating rod 21 on the surface of the grooves 24 opened on the two sets of uprights 22, and then engage the two adjacent ring blocks 210 on both sides of the uprights 22. Then install the mounting block 23 on the surface of the uprights 22 and the rotating rod 21, and align the two sets of grooves 24. At the same time, insert the threaded block 27 into the insertion hole 28 and penetrate the surface of the second side plate 26. Then connect the fastener 29 to the threaded block 27 by thread and tighten it against the surface of the second side plate 26. When sesame seeds are added to the feed hopper 12 of the air separator and become blocked, turn the handle 211 to make the rotating rod 21 rotate on the surface of the groove 24, thereby driving the spiral blade 2 to rotate together and moving the sesame seeds towards the feed inlet of the feed hopper 12.

[0035] Before using the air separator, the guide plate 3 is moved to rotate around the rotating block 33 and slide on the outside of the discharge hopper 14, so that the connecting plate 31 rotates on the surface of the rotating block 33 through the rotating hole 32. The guide plate 3 slides on the surface of the screw 34 through the slot 35 while moving. When the guide plate 3 rotates to a suitable angle, the nut 36 is connected to the screw 34 by thread and then abuts against the outside of the guide plate 3 to limit the guide plate 3. Then the air-separated sesame seeds coming out of the discharge hopper 14 are discharged along the direction of the guide plate 3.
