[0002] Chestnuts, also known as sweet chestnuts, belong to the nut family and are known as the "King of Dried Fruits." Chestnuts are a highly nutritious food, not only delicious but also possessing many unexpected health benefits. Rich in protein, carbohydrates, fat, calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, and various vitamins, they are believed to have effects such as prolonging life, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and stopping bleeding and reducing swelling. Chestnut shelling machines are advanced agricultural machinery primarily used for shelling chestnuts during processing, aiming to improve shelling efficiency and reduce labor costs. Specifically, they work by using a motor to drive the sheller to rotate, which cuts and breaks the shell through a blade, separating the meat from the shell. However, existing high-efficiency chestnut shelling machines suffer from drawbacks such as inefficient shell removal, shells sticking inside the device and being difficult to clean, and difficulty in controlling the opening and closing of the discharge port. Therefore, this paper addresses these issues through in-depth research. Utility Model Content

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.

[0015] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-5 A high-efficiency chestnut shelling machine includes a cover 6, a device body 20, and a blower 22. The cover 6 is installed on the top of the device body 20, and a hopper 8 is connected to the top of the cover 6. A first baffle 7 is installed on the inner side below the hopper 8. A control panel 5 is installed on the top of one side of the device body 20. An outlet pipe 2 is connected to the bottom of one side of the device body 20. A meat discharge pipe 12 is connected to the other side of the device body 20. A second baffle 25 is installed on the inner side of one end of the meat discharge pipe 12. A rotating rod 16 is installed on the inner side of the device body 20, and a cutter disc 4 is installed at the top of the rotating rod 16. Blades 13 are evenly installed on the inner side of the cutter disc 4. Each blade 13 has a shell discharge port 3 on one side. A shell collecting plate 1 is installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 16 below the cutter disc 4. A blower 22 is installed on the inner wall of the device body 20 above the shell collecting plate 1, and an air outlet nozzle 21 is connected to one side of the blower 22. A fixing rod 14 is installed on the inner wall of the device body 20 above the collection plate 1, and a cleaning brush 15 is installed below the fixing rod 14. The other side of the fan 22 is connected to an air inlet pipe 23, and the inner wall of the air inlet pipe 23 is equipped with a filter screen 24; Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when using this structure, the shell falls downward onto the shell collection plate 1. The shell collection plate 1 rotates at high speed, causing the shell to be thrown to one side. The thrown shell is discharged through the outlet pipe 2. While the shell collection plate 1 is rotating, the cleaning brush 15 cleans the shells stuck to the shell collection plate 1. In addition, the blower 22 works, and the air enters through the air inlet pipe 23, is filtered through the filter screen 24, and is then sprayed onto the shell collection plate 1 through the air outlet nozzle 21, making the shell discharge more efficient.

[0016] Example 2: A drive motor 18 is installed below the device body 20, and the output end of the drive motor 18 is connected to the drive gear 17 through the drive shaft. A driven gear 19 is installed on the outer wall below the rotating rod 16, and a meshing transmission structure is formed between the driven gear 19 and the drive gear 17. A return spring 10 is installed on one outer wall above the cover 6, and a movable rod 9 is movably installed on the inner side of the return spring 10. One end of the movable rod 9 is fixedly connected to the first baffle 7, and the other end of the movable rod 9 is connected to a pull ring 11. A servo motor 27 is installed on the inner wall of the device body 20 below the meat outlet tube 12, and the output end of the servo motor 27 is connected to a lead screw 26 through a drive shaft. One end of the lead screw 26 extends to the inner side of the second baffle 25. The inner wall of the second baffle 25 is provided with internal threads, and the lead screw 26 and the second baffle 25 form a threaded connection structure. Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, when using this structure, by pulling the pull ring 11 to the right, the movable rod 9 moves the first baffle 7 to the right at the same time, and the opening below the hopper 8 opens to allow material to be discharged. After a certain amount of material is discharged, the pull ring 11 is released, and the return spring 10 returns to its original position, causing the movable rod 9 to move the first baffle 7 to the left to close the hopper 8, which facilitates the control of the feeding amount. Then, the servo motor 27 works to rotate the lead screw 26, and the threaded engagement allows the second baffle 25 to move up or down, closing and opening the meat discharge pipe 12, which facilitates the control of the feeding and discharging switches.

[0017] Working principle: When using this device, chestnuts are first poured into the hopper 8 and then into the device body 20. The drive motor 18 drives the drive gear 17 to rotate. The drive gear 17 meshes with the driven gear 19, causing the rotating rod 16 to drive the shell collecting plate 1 and the cutter disc 4 to rotate at high speed. The chestnuts rotate on the cutter disc 4, and the blades 13 break and cut the chestnut shells. The shells then fall into the shell collecting plate 1 through the shell outlet 3. The peeled chestnuts are discharged through the meat outlet pipe 12. Implementation steps for the first innovation point: Step 1: The shell falls downward onto the shell collecting plate 1. The shell collecting plate 1 rotates at high speed, causing the shell to be thrown to one side. The thrown shell is discharged through the outlet pipe 2. Step 2: As the shell collection plate 1 rotates, the cleaning brush 15 cleans the shells stuck to the shell collection plate 1. In conjunction with the operation of the blower 22, the air enters through the air inlet pipe 23, is filtered through the filter screen 24, and is then sprayed out onto the shell collection plate 1 through the air outlet nozzle 21, making the shell discharge more efficient.

[0018] Implementation steps for the second innovation point: Step 1: By pulling the pull ring 11 to the right, the movable rod 9 moves the first baffle 7 to the right at the same time, and the opening under the hopper 8 opens to allow material to be discharged. After a certain amount of material is discharged, the pull ring 11 is released, and the return spring 10 returns to its original position, causing the movable rod 9 to move the first baffle 7 to the left to close the hopper 8, which makes it easier to control the amount of material fed. The second step involves the servo motor 27 working to rotate the lead screw 26, which, through threaded engagement, allows the second baffle 25 to move up or down, thus closing and opening the meat outlet tube 12, and controlling the size of the opening of the meat outlet tube 12.
