Detailed Implementation

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0035] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an apparatus for processing macadamia nuts by peeling, dehulling, and drying, comprising:

[0037] Suitcase 1, including:

[0038] The box body 11 has a feeding port 111 fixedly opened on the top for feeding materials. The lower part of the box body is divided into a sewage tank 14 and a drying box 15 by a partition 113. The box body 11 has a sewage outlet 114 fixedly provided on the side of the sewage tank 14 and connected to the sewage tank 14. The bottom of the box body 11 is provided with a discharge port 115 corresponding to the position of the drying box 15.

[0039] Guide plate 12 is inclinedly arranged inside the box 11 and located below the feed port 111. Screen holes are evenly distributed on it. Guide plate 13 is inclinedly arranged below it. The side of the box 11 is fixedly provided with a skin outlet 112 at the position corresponding to the partition plate 113.

[0040] Guide plate 3 16 is inclinedly set on sewage tank 14 and extends into drying box 15, and is evenly provided with screen holes.

[0041] Crushing component 2 is fixedly installed on peeling box 1 and is used to crush and peel the green skin of macadamia nuts;

[0042] The cleaning component 3 is fixedly installed on the peeling box 1 and is used to clean the macadamia nut kernels;

[0043] Hot air blower 4 is fixedly installed on the side of the box 11, and its air outlet is connected to the drying box 15 for drying macadamia nuts.

[0044] In practical application, the crushing assembly 2 is activated, and unpeeled macadamia nuts are fed into the housing 11 through the feeding port 111. After being crushed and peeled by the crushing assembly 2, they fall onto guide plate 12. The detached green husks pass through the sieve holes on guide plate 12 into guide plate 23 and are discharged through the husk outlet 112. The hard kernels are guided by guide plate 12, washed by the washing assembly 3, and fall onto guide plate 36. After being drained by guide plate 36, they enter the drying chamber 15, are dried by the hot air blower 4, and are discharged through the discharge port 115. During processing, the wastewater from the washing process is collected in the wastewater tank 14 and discharged uniformly through the drain outlet 114.

[0045] In this embodiment, the crushing component 2 crushes and peels macadamia nuts. Guided by guide plates 12 and 23, the peel is separated and removed under gravity. The washing component 3 is used to wash the kernels, and the finished macadamia nuts are dried by hot air blower 4. Compared with the traditional peeling process, this method is more efficient, requires no manual operation, and ensures worker safety.

[0046] Please see Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of buffer plates 17 are arranged alternately with the guide plate 16 in the drying box 15, and the buffer plates 17 are evenly distributed with sieve holes.

[0047] In practical applications, this embodiment uses a buffer plate 17 to slow down the rate at which the fruit pits fall, thereby extending the drying time and improving the drying effect of the fruit pits.

[0048] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the crushing component 2 includes:

[0049] The crushing motor 22 is fixedly installed on the side of the housing 11 via mounting plate 21.

[0050] Two spiral cutters 23 are rotatably mounted inside the housing 11 and located above the guide plate 12. Their axes are parallel to the guide plate 12. The shaft ends of the two spiral cutters 23 move through the housing 11 and extend into the mounting plate 21. One of the spiral cutter 23 shaft ends is fixedly connected to the power output end of the crushing motor 22.

[0051] Two gears 24 are meshed and fixedly mounted on the shaft end of the spiral cutter 23 and located inside the mounting plate 21.

[0052] Furthermore, a limiting plate 116 is fixedly installed inside the housing 11 corresponding to the shaft end of the spiral cutter 23, and the shaft end of the spiral cutter 23 rotates within the limiting plate 116.

[0053] In practical application, the crushing motor 22 drives one spiral cutter 23 to rotate, and the gear 24 meshes with it to drive another spiral cutter 23 to rotate. The two spiral cutters 23 crush macadamia nuts simultaneously, improving the peeling effect and reducing damage to the kernels. The limiting plate 116 limits the position of one end of the spiral cutter 23, thereby improving the stability of the spiral cutter 23 rotation and further reducing the impact of the kernels on the spiral cutter 23.

[0054] Please see Figure 3 In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cleaning component 3 includes:

[0055] Multiple dispersion tubes 35 are fixedly installed inside the housing 11 and above the sewage tank 14, and multiple nozzles 36 are evenly and fixedly installed on them.

[0056] The water pump 37 is fixedly installed on the housing 11. Its input end is connected to the water supply equipment, and its output end is fixedly connected to multiple distribution pipes 35 through a pipeline.

[0057] In practical application, this embodiment uses multiple dispersion tubes 35 to rinse the fruit pits with multiple nozzles 36 during the movement of the fruit pits, thereby cleaning the fruit pits.

[0058] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5 In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cleaning component 3 further includes:

[0059] The cleaning motor 32 is fixedly mounted on the side of the housing 11 via mounting plate 31.

[0060] Three brush rollers 33 are rotatably mounted inside the housing 11 and above the guide plate 3 16. Their shaft ends move through the housing 11 and extend into the mounting plate 2 31. One of the brush rollers 33 is fixedly connected to the power output end of the cleaning motor 32.

[0061] Three gears 2 34 are meshed and fixedly installed on the shaft end of brush roller 33 and located inside mounting plate 2 31.

[0062] In practical application, the cleaning motor 32 drives one brush roller 33 to rotate, and the three meshing gears 34 drive the remaining brush rollers 33 to rotate. The brush rollers 33 brush the surface of the fruit pit, and the spray nozzle 36 further improves the cleaning effect of the fruit pit.

[0063] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
