Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bamboo and wood processing technology, and in particular to a bamboo knot removal machine. Background Technology
[0002] Bamboo nodes refer to the protruding parts that connect different sections of bamboo. After bamboo is split into strips by a splitter, the bamboo nodes on the inside of the strips need to be removed to facilitate further processing.
[0003] A Chinese patent, CN218875778U, discloses a bamboo node removal machine. The machine features a node remover and a bamboo strip pusher on its upper surface. To remove nodes from bamboo strips, one end of the bamboo strip passes between the node removal blade and a moving roller, pushing the strip forward until the nodes on the strip's surface contact the blade and are removed. The pusher is then pressed against the bamboo strip's surface and pushed forward until it reaches the top of the frame. Finally, the pusher is removed and placed back near the gantry. The blade then pushes the bamboo strip forward until each bamboo node on the surface is removed by the node-removing blade. This method is safer, faster, and more efficient than the traditional method of directly cutting bamboo nodes with a knife. However, it requires manual operation to push the push plate with a handle, which in turn moves multiple bamboo strips by pushing the anti-slip rubber pads to remove the nodes. The fallen bamboo node fragments are difficult to collect and are difficult to clean up. Furthermore, manually pushing the push plate takes time and effort, resulting in low efficiency in removing bamboo nodes. Therefore, a bamboo node-removing machine is proposed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention proposes a bamboo node removal machine, including a frame 1, multiple movable rollers 2 and a node removal component 3. The top of the frame 1 is provided with an installation groove. The multiple movable rollers 2 are arranged at intervals and rotatably connected between the front and rear walls of the installation groove. The node removal component is set at the top of the frame 1. It also includes a movable frame 4 and a guide plate 7. The movable frame 4 is slidably set above the frame 1. The bottom of the frame 1 is provided with a driving mechanism for driving the movable frame 4 to slide. The inside of the movable frame 4 is provided with a pressing component to press the material and prevent it from deviating. The guide plate 7 is set at the bottom of the frame 1 and is inclined downward on the left side.
[0025] In this invention, the movable frame 4 is located at the rear of the node removal assembly 3. The node removal assembly 3 includes a gantry frame, a blade adjustment rod, a base, a node removal blade, and a U-shaped bracket. It allows for height adjustment of the node removal blade and facilitates blade replacement. During use, one end of the bamboo strip is inserted between the node removal blade and the bamboo strip moving roller, and the bamboo strip is pushed forward so that the bamboo nodes on the surface of the bamboo strip come into contact with the node removal blade and are cut off by the blade. This part extends into the movable frame 4. Then, the pressing assembly is used to press these bamboo strips to prevent them from falling off. Then, the drive mechanism is activated to drive the movable frame 4 to move multiple bamboo strips and remove the subsequent bamboo nodes. The fallen bamboo node fragments fall into the mounting groove through the gaps between the multiple moving rollers 2, and then fall along the bottom wall through the guide chute onto the guide plate 7 for easy collection, improving cleanliness and preventing bamboo node fragments from increasing the difficulty of removing nodes from subsequent bamboo strips on the node removal machine.
[0026] In an optional embodiment, the bottom wall of the mounting groove is inclined, and a guide groove communicating with the mounting groove is provided at the bottom end of the frame 1.
[0027] In an optional embodiment, the drive mechanism includes a drive frame 61, a motor 62, a lead screw 63, and a connecting frame 64.

One end of the lead screw 63 is coaxially connected to the output end of the motor 62, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rear side wall of the drive frame 61. The connecting frame 64 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 63, and both connecting ends are connected to the bottom end of the movable frame 4.
[0028] In an optional embodiment, the frame 1 has two sliding windows extending to its bottom, and the two connecting ends of the connecting frame 64 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two sliding windows respectively.
[0029] In an optional embodiment, the top of the frame 1 is connected to two slide rails 42, and the movable frame 4 is provided with a plurality of pulleys 41, which are slidably connected to the two slide rails 42 respectively.
[0030] It should be noted that when driving the moving frame 4, the starter motor 62 drives the lead screw 63 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting frame 64 to move the moving frame 4. The two connecting ends of the connecting frame 64 pass through the sliding window and are connected to the moving frame 4. By setting the slide rail 42 and the pulley 41, the friction of the moving frame 4 during movement can be reduced, preventing it from jamming during movement.
[0031] In an optional embodiment, the pressing assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder 51 and an anti-slip rubber pad 52. The anti-slip rubber pad 52 is slidably disposed within the movable frame 4. The hydraulic cylinder 51 is connected to the top of the movable frame 4, and its telescopic end is vertically downward connected to the anti-slip rubber pad 52.
[0032] It should be noted that the hydraulic cylinder 51 drives the anti-slip rubber pad 52 to press down, pressing the bamboo strips tightly, and then multiple moving rollers 52 can move it.
[0033] In an optional embodiment, the bottom of the frame 1 is connected to four support legs, and a fixing plate 8 is connected between two support legs on the front and rear sides. The guide plate 7 is fixedly connected between the two fixing plates.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
