Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camellia fruit processing technology, specifically to a high-efficiency shelling and sorting device for camellia fruit. Background Technology
[0002] Camellia fruit is an important fruit of the Theaceae family, rich in oil and a high-quality raw material for extracting camellia oil. Its outer layer is covered by a hard shell, and inside are 1-4 camellia seeds. Shelling and sorting are key steps in camellia fruit processing; however, how to sieve camellia fruits of different sizes before shelling and crushing to improve shelling efficiency is a problem that urgently needs to be solved.

This invention utilizes a shelling device driven by a servo motor. The shell-crushing roller in the shelling device works in conjunction with the shelling chamber to shell the nuts, making shelling more convenient. The sorting device, with its continuously vibrating discharge plate and sieve plate, separates the nuts from their shells, facilitating subsequent collection and centralized processing of the nuts and shells.

[0034] The screening aperture switching assembly 2 also includes a ring seat 23, on the outer side of which a ball bearing 232 is rotatably connected in a ring shape. The ring seat 23 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the screening cylinder 11 through the ball bearing 232. The screening aperture switching assembly 2 also includes a toothed groove group 231, which is fixedly connected to the outer side of the ring seat 23. The toothed groove group 231 is in contact with the toothed disc 221 and is meshed and rotatably connected.

[0042] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows:

Then, according to the size of the camellia fruits, the first motor 21 is started to drive the first rotating shaft 22 and the toothed disc 221 to rotate. Under the meshing cooperation of the toothed disc 221 and the toothed groove group 231, the ring seat 23 located inside the toothed groove group 231 begins to rotate, so that one set of screening plates 24 corresponds to the through slot at the bottom of the screening cylinder 11.
[0044] Then the second motor 31 is started to drive the second rotating shaft 32 to rotate. At this time, the stirring plate 321 fixed on the outside of the second rotating shaft 32 stirs the camellia fruit pile in the screening cylinder 11, and makes the camellia fruit that meets the current passing size fall into the tower silo 13 through the aperture of the screening cylinder 11.
[0045] Specifically, when the second rotating shaft 32 rotates, the first synchronous wheel 43 located at the end of the second rotating shaft 32 will rotate synchronously, and under the meshing transmission of the synchronous belt 44 and the second synchronous wheel 42, the crushing roller 421 located in the middle of the second synchronous wheel 42 will rotate synchronously. At this time, the camellia fruit falling at the bottom of the screening cylinder 11 will complete the shelling work under the action of the crushing roller 421 and the crushing plate 411.
[0046] Specifically, after a set of camellia fruits of a certain size falls through the sieve plate 24, the first motor 21 is started to drive the ring seat 23 to rotate inside the sieve cylinder 11 until another set of sieve plates 24 of a certain size replaces the previous sieve plate 24 to continue the screening work, and the stirring component 3 and the shelling component 4 continue to work.
[0047] Specifically, the cylinder 41 can be activated according to the current size and specifications of the camellia fruit, thereby adjusting the distance between the crushing plate 411 and the crushing roller 421.
[0048] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
