Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pecan kernel extracting machines, specifically a kernel extracting device for pecans. Background Technology

[0002] A pecan kernel extractor is a specialized mechanical device for processing pecans. It is primarily used for cracking, shelling, and kernel extraction to improve the efficiency and quality of pecan processing. In the existing technology, a Chinese patent application with application number CN202420296586.X describes a pecan kernel extractor. This patent uses a shell-cracking mechanism to crack the pecans, after which the shells and kernels fall into a feeding chamber. Larger kernels fall directly onto a second placement platform, while broken shells and lighter kernels are blown into a separation tube by a blower. The kernels are then extracted by the rotation of a separation rod. Centrifugal force separates the walnut shells and kernels, and the separated shells and kernels fall onto the first placement platform. This device can extract larger, intact walnut kernels in one go, completing the shelling and kernel extraction in one operation, thus improving the efficiency of shelling and kernel extraction and facilitating large-scale kernel extraction in factories. In an existing kernel extraction device for pecans, the broken walnut shells and small pieces of walnut kernels are mixed together inside the separation chamber, making it inconvenient to sieve and affecting classification, which has certain adverse effects on the user process. Therefore, we propose a kernel extraction device for pecans. Utility Model Content

[0021] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figure 1-5As shown, the device includes a kernel extractor 1. A feed inlet 2 is located on one side of the upper outer surface of the kernel extractor 1. A discharge outlet 3 is located on one side of the lower end of the front outer surface of the kernel extractor 1. A separation chamber 4 is located on one side of the discharge outlet 3. A screening mechanism 5 is located on the front outer surface of the kernel extractor 1. The screening mechanism 5 includes a ramp trough 6, a screening frame 7, a groove 8, a sieve plate 9, a baffle 10, a sliding plate 11, a limiting plate 12, a first elastic hemisphere 13, a second elastic hemisphere 14, a sliding groove 15, a fixing plate 16, a fixing frame 17, a connecting plate 18, a cylinder 19, a limiting groove 20, a limiting block 21, a rotating shaft 22, an eccentric wheel 23, and a motor 24. Two sets of sliding grooves 15 are... The separation chamber 4 is located on the upper part of the outer surface on both sides. The screening frame 7 is located in the middle of the separation chamber 4. The baffle 10 is located on the front outer surface of the screening frame 7. Two sets of sliding plates 11 are located on the upper part of the outer surface on both sides of the screening frame 7. The groove 8 is located in the middle of the upper outer surface of the screening frame 7. The sieve plate 9 is located in the middle of the lower outer surface of the screening frame 7. The limiting plate 12 is located at the rear end of the lower outer surface of the screening frame 7. Multiple sets of first elastic hemispheres 13 are located on the rear outer surface of the limiting plate 12. Multiple sets of second elastic hemispheres 14 are located at the upper and lower ends of the rear outer surface of the baffle 10. The number of first elastic hemispheres 13 and second elastic hemispheres 14 is not less than eight sets.

[0024] The inclined groove 6 is located on the lower inner surface of the separation chamber 4, the fixed plate 16 is located on the upper end of one side of the front outer surface of the kernel extractor 1, the fixed frame 17 is located at the rear end of the lower outer surface of the fixed plate 16, and the limiting groove 20 is opened at the lower end of the middle of the front outer surface of the fixed frame 17; the cylinder 19 is located on the upper outer surface of the fixed plate 16, the connecting plate 18 is located at the lower end of the cylinder 19, the limiting block 21 is located on the rear outer surface of the connecting plate 18, the motor 24 is located on the upper end of the front outer surface of the connecting plate 18, the rotating shaft 22 is located at the lower end of the motor 24, and the eccentric wheel 23 is located on the lower outer surface of the rotating shaft 22; the screening frame 7 is inserted into the separation chamber 4, the slide plate 11 is slidably connected to the slide groove 15, the first elastic hemisphere 13 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 12, the second elastic hemisphere 14 is fixedly connected to the baffle 10, and the limiting block 21 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 20.

[0025] It should be noted that this utility model is a device for extracting kernels from walnuts. After aligning the baffle 10 with the separation chamber 4, the slide plate 11 slides along the slide groove 15, extending the screening frame 7 into the separation chamber 4. The broken walnut shells and small pieces of walnut kernels fall into the groove 8 and are screened by the sieve plate 9. The starting cylinder 19 drives the connecting plate 18 to descend, while simultaneously driving the limiting block 21 to slide along the limiting groove 20, moving the eccentric wheel 23 to the front end of the baffle 10. The starting motor 24 drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate, while simultaneously driving the eccentric wheel 23. The rotation causes the baffle 10 to be struck. The first elastic hemisphere 13 at the rear end of the limiting plate 12 impacts the kernel extractor 1 and rebounds. The second elastic hemisphere 14 impacts the kernel extractor 1 and rebounds, causing the baffle 10 to rebound. This causes the screening frame 7 to move back and forth along the separation chamber 4 for screening. This facilitates the screening of broken walnut shells and small pieces of walnut kernels fed into the separation chamber 4. The broken walnut shells slide out through the inclined groove 6, which facilitates the movement of the screening frame 7 back and forth, speeds up the screening process, and makes it easier to disassemble and clean the screening frame 7.
