Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of areca nut processing technology, and in particular relates to a continuous rolling forming machine for areca nut production. Background Technology

[0002] Areca nut is an erect tree belonging to the class Monocotyledonous plants, order Primary order, family Arecaceae, and genus Areca. Its stem is erect with annular leaf scars, and the leaves are clustered at the top of the stem. It is monoecious, and the fruit is oblong or ovoid. The seeds are ovoid. The flowering and fruiting period is from March to April. Areca nuts prefer moist and fertile conditions but are intolerant of waterlogging. They are mainly distributed in tropical Asia and East India, and in China, they are widely distributed in tropical regions such as Yunnan, Hainan, and Taiwan.

[0003] When areca nuts are rolled and formed, they are squeezed by two forming rollers. During this extrusion process, impurities can accumulate on the surface of the forming rollers. The long-term accumulation of these impurities can affect the subsequent rolling and forming effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a continuous rolling forming machine for areca nut production, which solves the existing problems.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model relates to a continuous rolling forming machine for areca nut production, comprising: a mounting frame; an active roller movably mounted inside the machine frame at the top of the mounting frame; an auxiliary roller movably mounted inside the machine frame; the active roller and the auxiliary roller being aligned on the same straight line and tangentially arranged; symmetrically mounted adjustment devices on the mounting frame; and rotatably connected at both ends of the auxiliary roller to the adjustment devices; a drive device fixedly mounted at the bottom of the mounting frame; the output end of the drive device being connected to a synchronous pulley on the end face of the active roller via a toothed belt; a discharge guide plate below the active roller, fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting frame; a collection frame below the discharge guide plate; and a collection plate fixedly mounted inside the mounting frame.

[0006] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism also includes nozzles that are equidistantly fixedly installed on the side of the mounting base near the drive roller. A connecting pipe is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting base. A threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the side plate. A protrusion that is threadedly connected to the threaded rod is provided on one side of the connecting plate. One end of each of the two threaded rods passes through the side wall of the side plate and is fixedly connected to both ends of the synchronous belt drive structure. A handwheel is fixedly installed at one end of the synchronous belt drive structure.

[0007] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided on the side plate, and a rectangular slider is provided on one side of the connecting plate to slide in conjunction with the sliding groove. The sliding groove on the side plate can increase the sliding fit between the side plate and the connecting plate. In addition, the rectangular slider on one side of the connecting plate can keep the connecting plate moving linearly when sliding, further increasing the stability of the device during operation.

[0008] Furthermore, a cleaning block that matches the surface of the drive roller is fixedly installed at equal intervals on the side of the mounting base near the drive roller. The cleaning block on one side of the mounting base can scrape and clean the surface of the drive roller to maintain the cleanliness of the drive roller surface.

[0009] Furthermore, a filter frame is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting base, a collection seat is fixedly installed at one end of the filter frame, and a conveying pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the collection seat. The filter frame can collect the cleaning water and areca nut debris in a concentrated manner to prevent them from falling randomly, and can filter the mixture of cleaning water and areca nut. The filtered cleaning water will enter the collection seat and then be discharged through the conveying pipe at the bottom of the collection seat.

[0010] Furthermore, the filter frame has a 20° inclined surface inside, and a filter screen is provided at the end of the filter frame. The collection seat has symmetrically arranged 30° inclined surfaces inside. The 20° inclined surface inside the filter frame can guide the cleaning water and areca nut debris, thereby better filtering the filter end at the end of the filter frame. The 30° inclined surface inside the collection seat can guide the cleaning water, thereby better draining the water.

[0011] Furthermore, both the mounting base and the filter frame are provided with arc-shaped grooves at their ends that fit into the drive roller.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: This invention features a cleaning mechanism that allows for rapid cleaning of the surface of the drive roller, preventing debris from adhering to the drive roller and negatively impacting the processing effect of the drive and auxiliary rollers on areca nuts. Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism can perform simultaneous cleaning while the drive roller is in operation, ensuring that the drive roller remains clean for better processing.

[0013] This invention enables rapid filtration and separation of cleaning water and debris through the internal filtration structure of the cleaning mechanism, making it more convenient for workers to separate waste and facilitating their operation.

[0014] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model is a continuous rolling forming machine for areca nut production, comprising: a mounting frame 1, an active roller 2 movably mounted inside the machine frame at the top of the mounting frame 1, an auxiliary roller 3 movably mounted inside the machine frame, the active roller 2 and the auxiliary roller 3 being on the same straight line and tangentially arranged, an adjustment device 4 symmetrically mounted on the mounting frame 1, and the two ends of the auxiliary roller 3 being rotatably connected to the adjustment device 4 respectively, a drive device 5 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the mounting frame 1, the output end of the drive device 5 being connected to the synchronous pulley on the end face of the active roller 2 via a toothed belt, a discharge guide plate 6 being provided below the active roller 2, and the discharge guide plate 6 being fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting frame 1, a collection frame 7 being provided below the discharge guide plate 6, and a collection plate 9 being fixedly mounted inside the mounting frame 1; The cleaning mechanism 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting frame 1 and is used to clean the surface of the drive roller 2. The cleaning mechanism 8 includes side plates 10 that are symmetrically fixedly installed on one side of the mounting frame 1. Each side plate 10 has a connecting plate 11 slidably connected to one side. One end of each connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to both ends of the mounting base 12.

[0020] The cleaning mechanism 8 also includes nozzles 13 that are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the side of the mounting base 12 near the drive roller 2. A connecting pipe 14 is fixedly installed on one end of the mounting base 12. A threaded rod 15 is rotatably connected inside the side plate 10. A protrusion that is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15 is provided on one side of the connecting plate 11. One end of the two threaded rods 15 passes through the side wall of the side plate 10 and is fixedly connected to both ends of the synchronous belt drive structure 16. A handwheel 17 is fixedly installed on one end of the synchronous belt drive structure 16.

[0021] The side plate 10 is provided with a sliding groove, and the connecting plate 11 is provided with a rectangular slider that is slidably connected to the sliding groove on one side. The sliding groove provided on the side plate 10 can increase the sliding fit between the side plate 10 and the connecting plate 11. In addition, the rectangular slider provided on one side of the connecting plate 11 can keep the connecting plate 11 moving linearly when sliding, further increasing the stability of the device during operation.

[0022] Cleaning blocks that match the surface of the drive roller 2 are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the side of the mounting base 12 near the drive roller 2. The cleaning blocks on one side of the mounting base 12 can scrape and clean the surface of the drive roller 2 to keep the surface of the drive roller 2 clean.

[0023] A filter frame 18 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting base 12. A collection base 19 is fixedly installed at one end of the filter frame 18. A conveying pipe 20 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the collection base 19. The filter frame 18 can collect the cleaning water and areca nut debris in a concentrated manner to prevent them from falling randomly. It can also filter the mixture of cleaning water and areca nut. The filtered cleaning water will enter the collection base 19 and then be discharged through the conveying pipe 20 at the bottom of the collection base 19.

[0024] The filter frame 18 has a 20° slope inside, and a filter screen is provided at the end of the filter frame 18. The collection seat 19 has symmetrical 30° slopes inside. The 20° slope inside the filter frame 18 can guide the cleaning water and areca nut debris, thereby better filtering the filter end of the filter frame 18. The 30° slope inside the collection seat 19 can guide the cleaning water, thereby better draining the water.

[0025] It should be noted that the adjusting device 4 mentioned in this article is a device used in existing mature rolling processing systems to adjust the distance between rollers. The adjusting device is usually connected to the roller bearing housing and is directly adjusted via a handwheel or lead screw mechanism, using mechanical or hydraulic transmission to change the center distance between the two rollers. It is equipped with a scale or digital display system, which facilitates precise control of the distance value by the operator.

[0026] Both the mounting base 12 and the filter frame 18 have arc-shaped grooves at their ends that fit into the drive roller 2.

[0027] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: When the device is needed to roll betel nuts, the drive device 5 drives the active roller 2 to rotate continuously. In order to increase the adjustability of the active roller 2 and the auxiliary roller 3 for the processing specifications of betel nuts, the operator can adjust the position of the auxiliary roller 3 through the adjustment device 4. Then, the betel nuts pass between the active roller 2 and the auxiliary roller 3 and are quickly rolled and formed by the active roller 2 and the auxiliary roller 3. After that, the rolled betel nuts enter the collection frame 7 from the discharge guide plate 6. Due to long-term operation, the surface of the active roller 2 will be covered with betel nut debris, which will lead to a deterioration of the rolling and forming effect over time. Therefore, a cleaning mechanism 8 for quickly cleaning the surface of the active roller 2 is provided on one side of the active roller 2. The collection plate 9 can collect the splashed debris or cleaning water. When cleaning the surface of the drive roller 2, the connecting pipe 14 delivers external water to the mounting base 12 and then sprays it evenly onto the surface of the drive roller 2 through the nozzle 13, thereby softening the areca nut fragments attached to the surface of the drive roller 2 by water immersion. The softened fragments are then scraped off by the cleaning block set at the end of the mounting base 12. Subsequently, the fragments fall into the filter frame 18, and the continuous spraying of water from the nozzle 13 can drive the fragments into the filter end of the filter frame 18, thereby filtering the fragments. The cleaning water is then discharged from the device through the collection base 19 and the conveying pipe 20. When the drive roller 2 does not need to be cleaned, the operator drives the synchronous belt drive structure 16 to rotate via the handwheel 17. The synchronous belt drive structure 16 drives the two threaded rods 15 to rotate synchronously, thereby enabling the connecting plate 11 to move synchronously. This causes the mounting base 12 to move out from one side of the drive roller 2, separating the two.
