Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of fruit processing machinery and equipment, specifically relating to a return-type shell detection mechanism for a fully automatic peeling machine. Background Technology

[0002] The milling and removal of the outer shell of a young coconut requires peeling the outer skin down to the woody layer. During the circumferential milling process, the position of the woody layer needs to be detected simultaneously. Milling around the coconut requires N passes, and the results of these detections serve as the target parameter for controlling the milling amount. This method allows for accurate removal of the outer shell. However, current technology lacks detection of the woody layer during the outer skin removal process, necessitating visual observation. This requires simultaneously monitoring the woody layer and controlling the peeling mechanism during cutting, leading to decreased efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a return-type shell detection mechanism for a fully automatic shelling machine, which automatically detects the wood layer of young coconuts and can improve the efficiency of milling and removing the shells of young coconuts.

[0004] The technical solution is a return-type shell detection mechanism for a fully automatic shell peeling machine, including a drive mechanism, and also including:

[0005] A frame and a mounting plate fixedly mounted on the frame, wherein the drive mechanism is mounted on the mounting plate;

[0006] Probe; the probe is used to detect the xylem layer of a coconut;

[0007] A displacement sensor is mounted on the frame or mounting plate and is used to detect the movement distance of the probe;

[0008] The probe and the driving mechanism are connected through the connecting part, and the driving mechanism drives the probe to move through the connecting part;

[0009] A guide portion, which is mounted on the frame or mounting plate, is used to guide the movement of the connecting portion.

[0010] Preferably, the drive mechanism includes a drive motor fixedly mounted on the mounting plate and a drive gear fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor.

[0011] Preferably, the connecting part includes a connecting rod and teeth disposed on the connecting rod that mesh with the drive gear.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting part further includes a connecting cylinder and a compression spring disposed inside the connecting cylinder, the probe is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting cylinder, and one end of the connecting rod is slidably installed in the connecting cylinder.

[0013] Preferably, the guide portion includes a guide sleeve.

[0014] Preferably, at least one of the guide sleeves is fixed on the mounting plate.

[0015] Preferably, the guide portion includes a linear guide rail and a guide slider that cooperates with the linear guide rail.

[0016] Preferably, the end of the connecting cylinder is provided with a contraction opening, and the end of the connecting rod is provided with a retaining ring that cooperates with the contraction opening.

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

[0018] In the peeling process of young coconuts, this invention involves both a probe and a cutting blade initially contacting the coconut skin. During the peeling process, the drive mechanism moves the probe closer to the young coconut via a connecting part, ensuring continuous contact until the outer shell is cut and the probe contacts the exposed wood layer. At this point, the probe sends a signal to the controller, which then stops the cutting blade. By maintaining constant contact with the young coconut, this invention enables automatic detection of the wood layer and automatic shutdown. Compared to manually observing the wood layer while controlling the peeling mechanism, this invention achieves automated detection and improves efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0029] This specific embodiment is a return-type shell detection mechanism for a fully automatic shell peeling machine, and its structural schematic diagram is shown below. Figures 1-6 As shown, the device includes a drive mechanism 5, a frame 1, a mounting plate 2, a probe 3, a displacement sensor 4, a connecting part 6, and a guide part 7, all fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The drive mechanism 5 is mounted on the mounting plate 2. The probe 3 is used to detect the woody layer of the coconut. The displacement sensor 4 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 2 and can also be mounted on the frame 1. The displacement sensor 4 is used to detect the moving distance of the probe 3. The drive mechanism 5 is used to drive the probe 3 to contact the coconut and detect the woody layer of the coconut. When the probe 3 detects the woody layer of the coconut, the cutting blade stops peeling the coconut.

[0030] The probe 3 and the drive mechanism 5 are connected by the connecting part 6. The drive mechanism 5 drives the probe 3 to move through the connecting part 6. The guide part 7 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 2, and can also be fixedly installed on the frame 1. The guide part 7 is used to guide the movement of the connecting part 6.

[0031] A controller that is electrically connected to both the probe 3 and the displacement sensor 4 is also fixedly installed on the frame 1.

[0032] During the peeling process of young coconuts, both probe 3 and the cutting blade first come into contact with the coconut skin. During the peeling process, the drive mechanism 5 moves probe 3 closer to the young coconut through the connecting part 6, so that probe 3 continues to be in contact with the young coconut until the outer shell is cut and probe 3 contacts the exposed wood layer. When probe 3 contacts the exposed wood layer, probe 3 sends a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the cutting blade to stop working. In this utility model, by keeping probe 3 in contact with the young coconut, the wood layer of the young coconut can be automatically detected and the machine can be automatically stopped. Compared with the method of observing the wood layer of the young coconut with the naked eye while controlling the peeling mechanism to peel the coconut skin, this utility model achieves automated detection and improves efficiency.

[0033] In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 5 includes a drive motor 501 fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 2 and a drive gear 502 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 501. The drive motor 501 is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting plate 2, the output shaft of the drive motor 501 passes through the mounting plate 2 and extends to the other side of the mounting plate 2, and the output shaft of the drive motor 501 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 2, while the drive gear 502 is located on the other side of the mounting plate 2.

[0034] When the drive motor 501 drives the output shaft to rotate clockwise, it can drive the drive gear 502 to rotate clockwise synchronously. During the clockwise rotation, the drive gear 502 can drive the probe 3 to move closer to the coconut through the connecting part 6.

[0035] Similarly, when the drive motor 501 drives the active gear 502 to rotate counterclockwise, the connecting part 6 can drive the probe 3 to move away from the coconut.

[0036] In some embodiments, the connecting part 6 includes a connecting rod 601 and teeth 602 provided on the connecting rod 601 and cooperating with the drive gear 502. The connecting part 6 also includes a connecting cylinder 603 and a compression spring 604 provided in the connecting cylinder 603. The probe 3 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting cylinder 603. One end of the connecting rod 601 is slidably installed in the connecting cylinder 603. One end of the compression spring 604 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 601, and the other end of the compression spring 604 is fixedly connected to one end of the probe 3 fixedly installed in the connecting cylinder 603.

[0037] When the drive motor 501 drives the output shaft to rotate clockwise, it can drive the drive gear 502 to rotate clockwise synchronously. During the clockwise rotation, the drive gear 502 drives the connecting rod 601 to slide through the teeth 602. During the sliding process, the connecting rod 601 can drive the connecting cylinder 603 and the probe 3 to move towards the coconut through the compression spring 604, so that the probe 3 is always in contact with the coconut during the peeling process.

[0038] Similarly, when the drive motor 501 drives the active gear 502 to rotate counterclockwise, it can cause the probe 3 to move away from the coconut.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the end of the connecting cylinder 603 is provided with a contraction port 605, and the end of the connecting rod 601 is provided with a retaining ring 606 that cooperates with the contraction port 605. With the cooperation of the contraction port 605 and the retaining ring 606, the connecting rod 601 can be prevented from detaching from the connecting cylinder 603.

[0040] In some embodiments, the guide part 7 includes a guide sleeve, and at least one guide sleeve is fixed on the mounting plate 2. The guide sleeve can not only support the connecting cylinder 603, but also guide the movement of the connecting cylinder 603, so that the connecting cylinder 603 will not deviate when it drives the probe 3 to move.

[0041] The displacement sensor 4 is fixedly installed on the other side of the mounting plate 2. When the connecting rod 601 moves towards the coconut, it can drive the connecting cylinder 603 and the probe 3 to move closer to the coconut. At this time, the displacement sensor 4 can detect the moving distance of the connecting cylinder 603. Since the probe 3 is fixedly installed on the connecting cylinder 603, the moving distance of the probe 3 is equal to the moving distance of the connecting cylinder 603. Thus, the displacement sensor 4 can detect the moving distance of the probe 3.

[0042] In some embodiments, the guide part 7 includes a linear guide rail and a guide slider that cooperates with the linear guide rail. Specifically, the linear guide rail is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 2, and the guide slider is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting cylinder 603. In this way, with the cooperation of the linear guide rail and the guide slider, the connecting cylinder 603 can be supported and guided to move, so that the connecting cylinder 603 will not deviate when it drives the probe 3 to move.

[0043] It should be noted that the cutting blade of this utility model is electrically connected to the controller. The controller, the cutting blade, and the operation of the cutting blade are existing technologies, and their structure and principle will not be described in detail here.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
