A device for removing the shells from lotus pods

Abstract

This utility model relates to the technical field of shelling devices, specifically a lotus seedpod shelling device, including a shelling device body, a support frame, and a feeding hopper. The lower surface of the feeding hopper has a clearance groove, and a sliding mesh is slidably connected to the inner wall of the clearance groove. An air equalization component is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feeding hopper. An air supply mechanism is provided on the side wall of the support frame, and the air supply mechanism is connected to the air equalization component. This utility model, by using the sliding mesh and air supply mechanism in conjunction, can create an upward airflow below the feeding hopper. Due to the low density of lotus seedpod shells, the upward airflow simultaneously blows and breaks up both the shells and lotus seeds, resulting in a lower descent speed for the shells. This allows the lotus seedpod shells to fall beyond the range of the feeding hopper for further separation, thereby improving the cleanliness of the lotus seeds.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling substrate technology, specifically a lotus seedpod shell removal device. Background Technology

[0002] When the lotus seedpod shell and lotus seed are not bonded together, but only attached to the bottom of the lotus seed, a lotus seedpod shelling device can be used to remove the shell. After shelling, the lotus seedpod shell is removed from two places, but some broken lotus seedpod shells will also be removed from the place where the lotus seed was removed.

[0003] To further separate the lotus seeds, an air separation process is performed when the lotus seeds are discharged. Air is blown at the discharge point to blow down the lighter, broken lotus pods to collect the lotus seeds in the underground hopper for separation. During this process, some heavier lotus pods will fall down in advance, resulting in some larger lotus pods often being mixed in with the lotus seeds. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model proposes a lotus seedpod shell removal device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a lotus seedpod shelling device, comprising a shelling device body, a support frame and a feeding hopper, wherein a clearance groove is provided on the lower surface of the feeding hopper, and a sliding mesh is slidably connected to the inner wall of the clearance groove; an air equalization component is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feeding hopper; an air supply mechanism is provided on the side wall of the support frame, and the air supply mechanism is connected to the air equalization component.

[0006] Preferably, the gas equalization component includes a housing fixed to the lower surface of the hopper, and a sliding groove is provided on one side wall of the housing. A drawer frame is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove, and a gas distribution mesh plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drawer frame.

[0007] Preferably, the air supply mechanism includes an air duct fixed to the support frame, and an axial flow fan is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the air duct. A duct is connected to one side wall of the air duct, and one end of the duct is connected to the housing.

[0008] Preferably, a filter screen is fixedly connected to one end of the air duct.

[0009] Preferably, a groove is provided on one side wall of the hopper, and a baffle is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove. A bolt is threadedly connected to one side wall of the hopper, and one end of the bolt passes through the hopper and abuts against the baffle.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] This invention, by using a sliding screen and an air supply mechanism in conjunction, can create an upward airflow below the hopper. Due to the low density of lotus pods, the upward airflow simultaneously blows and breaks up both the lotus pods and lotus seeds, resulting in a lower descent speed of the lotus pods. This allows the lotus pods to fall beyond the range of the hopper for further separation, thereby improving the cleanliness of the lotus seeds. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-4 A lotus seedpod shelling device includes a shelling device body 1, a support frame 2 and a feeding hopper 3. The lower surface of the feeding hopper 3 is provided with a clearance groove, and a sliding mesh 4 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the clearance groove. An air equalization component is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feeding hopper 3. An air supply mechanism is provided on the side wall of the support frame 2, and the air supply mechanism is connected to the air equalization component.

[0019] As can be seen from the above structure, by setting up the sliding screen 4 and the air supply mechanism, an upward airflow can be created below the hopper 3. Since the density of the lotus seed pod is low, when the upward airflow blows upward to break the lotus seed pod and lotus seeds, the falling speed of the lotus seed pod is even lower. This allows the lotus seed pod to fall beyond the range of the hopper 3 for further separation, thereby improving the cleanliness of the lotus seeds.

[0020] Furthermore, the air distribution component includes a housing 5 fixed to the lower surface of the hopper 3, and a groove is provided on one side wall of the housing 5. A drawer frame 6 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove, and an air distribution mesh plate 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drawer frame 6. By setting the drawer frame 6 and the air distribution mesh plate 7 to work together, the air distribution mesh plate 7 can block and disperse the airflow, so that the airflow is uniform.

[0021] Furthermore, the air supply mechanism includes an air duct 8 fixed to the support frame 2, and an axial flow fan 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the air duct 8. A duct 10 is connected to one side wall of the air duct 8, and one end of the duct 10 is connected to the housing 5. By setting the axial flow fan 9 and the duct 10 to work together, the axial flow fan 9 is turned on when in use, so that the axial flow fan 9 supplies air to the housing 5 through the duct 10, so that the gas is sprayed upward from the sliding screen 4 through the housing 5. In this way, the air supply mechanism is not directly set below the hopper 3, so that even if there are relatively heavy small impurities in the lotus seeds, they will not fall on the axial flow fan 9, ensuring the safety of the axial flow fan 9.

[0022] Furthermore, a filter screen 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the air duct 8; by setting the filter screen 11, the gas inside the air duct 8 can be filtered to ensure the cleanliness of the gas.

[0023] Furthermore, a groove is provided on one side wall of the feeding hopper 3, and a baffle 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove. A bolt 13 is threadedly connected to one side wall of the feeding hopper 3, and one end of the bolt 13 passes through the feeding hopper 3 and abuts against the baffle 12. By setting the baffle 12, the height of one side of the feeding hopper 3 can be adjusted, thereby ensuring that the lotus seeds will not be blown out of the feeding hopper 3.

[0024] 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.
