Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn processing technology, and in particular to a corn silk separation device for corn processing. Background Technology
[0002] Corn silk is the filamentous hair that extends from the top of the corn cob. It belongs to the stigma and style of corn and is usually yellowish-green or yellowish-brown. It is soft and slender and has certain physiological functions. During the corn's growth process, it can receive pollen to complete fertilization. At the same time, corn silk is also a common food and medicine material. It contains flavonoids, polysaccharides and other components and is often used to make tea. When users process corn, it needs to be separated.
[0003] An investigation revealed that a Chinese utility model patent, publication number CN220722844U, discloses a corn silk separator. This device includes a corn silk separator with a fan fixedly connected to the rear left side, a collection frame slidably connected to the front left side, and a fixing mechanism movably connected to the top left side. This utility model utilizes a knob to rotate a rotating plate and a rotating column, causing the sliding plate to slide and the fixing rod to retract. This facilitates sliding the collection frame out from the side of the connecting plate and allows for replacement with a new collection frame. Releasing the knob, under the pressure of a spring, causes the sliding plate to push out the fixing rod, allowing it to insert into the collection frame and secure it. This makes disassembly and assembly of the collection frame more convenient, thus simplifying the use of the separator.
[0004] When users use the aforementioned patent, the corn silk is not completely separated and the corn cob is easily damaged. The separation efficiency is low, and when users process the corn cob, the corn silk is poorly wrapped and it is difficult to remove it from all sides. This results in a lot of corn silk residue, and the rigid material is prone to scratching and squeezing damage to the surface of the corn cob during the separation process, which affects the quality of subsequent processing.
[0005] Therefore, there is a particular need for a corn silk separator for corn processing. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a corn silk separator for corn processing to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a corn silk separator for corn processing, comprising a main body, a supporting base plate fixedly connected to the side surface of the main body, a supporting foot fixedly connected to the upper surface of the main body, a corn positioning rod fixedly connected to the upper surface of the supporting foot, and a separator mechanism installed on the upper surface of the main body. The separation mechanism includes an upper fixing plate, which is mounted on the main body of the device. A connecting frame is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper fixing plate. A protective shell is limited and snapped onto the inner surface of the connecting frame. A connecting frame is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the protective shell. A first motor is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the connecting frame. A fan blade is fixedly sleeved on the top end of the output shaft of the first motor. A limiting guide rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper fixing plate. A supporting crossbar is limited and sleeved on the outer surface of the limiting guide rod. A fixing block is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the supporting crossbar. A second motor is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block. A mounting base plate is fixedly sleeved on the top end of the output shaft of the second motor.
[0008] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the limiting guide rod, and the limiting block and the supporting crossbar are matched in size.
[0009] Preferably, the inner surface of the connecting frame is provided with a snap-fit opening, and the snap-fit opening and the protective shell are structurally compatible.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom surface of the support base plate is fitted with anti-slip fixing feet, and there are multiple anti-slip fixing feet that are parallel to each other.
[0011] Preferably, the second motor is connected to a fixing block and a support crossbar, and the fixing block is symmetrically arranged with the vertical center line of the second motor as the axis of symmetry.
[0012] Preferably, a telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper fixing plate, and the telescopic rod is connected to the supporting crossbar.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom surface of the mounting base plate is fitted with a corn silk peeling rubber rod, and the number of corn silk peeling rubber rods is multiple.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: The second motor in the separation mechanism drives the mounting base plate to rotate. Multiple soft rubber rods at the bottom of the mounting base plate can rotate and peel the corn fixed on the corn positioning rod from all directions. The soft rubber rods are soft and plentiful, which not only ensures the thoroughness of corn silk removal, but also avoids scratching or squeezing damage to the corn ears. At the same time, the first motor drives the fan blades to rotate, which can blow the peeled corn silk away from the working area in time, preventing the corn silk from getting tangled on the corn or device parts and affecting the separation effect. The dual action greatly improves the corn silk separation efficiency and ensures the integrity and quality of the raw materials for subsequent corn processing.
[0015] The corn positioning rod, combined with the support feet, allows for quick and easy positioning and fixing of the corn without manual handling, thus improving safety. The telescopic rod can move the support crossbar up and down along the limiting guide rod, making it easy to adjust the height of the corn silk removal rubber rod according to the size of the corn cob. The limiting block prevents the support crossbar from detaching from the limiting guide rod, ensuring stability during the adjustment process. Multiple parallel anti-slip fixing feet on the bottom of the support base plate enhance the overall anti-slip stability of the device, preventing displacement during operation.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a corn silk separation device for corn processing, including a device body 1, a support base plate 2 fixedly connected to the side surface of the device body 1, a support foot 4 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the device body 1, a corn positioning rod 5 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support foot 4, and a separation mechanism 3 installed on the upper surface of the device body 1. The separation mechanism 3 includes an upper fixing plate 301, which is mounted on the main body 1 of the device. A connecting frame 302 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper fixing plate 301. A protective shell 303 is limited and snapped onto the inner ring surface of the connecting frame 302. A connecting frame 304 is fixedly connected to the inner ring surface of the protective shell 303. A first motor 305 is fixedly connected to the inner ring surface of the connecting frame 304. A fan blade 306 is fixedly sleeved at the top of the output shaft of the first motor 305. A limiting guide rod 307 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper fixing plate 301. A supporting crossbar 310 is limited and sleeved on the outer ring surface of the limiting guide rod 307. A fixing block 311 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the supporting crossbar 310. A second motor 312 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 311. A mounting base plate 313 is fixedly sleeved at the top of the output shaft of the second motor 312.
[0020] Furthermore, a limiting block 309 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the limiting guide rod 307, and the limiting block 309 and the supporting crossbar 310 are matched in size. The limiting block 309 can limit the upward movement of the supporting crossbar 310 along the limiting guide rod 307, preventing the supporting crossbar 310 from detaching from the limiting guide rod 307 due to excessive upward movement, ensuring the stability of the connection of each component of the separation mechanism 3, and avoiding equipment failure or operational safety hazards caused by component detachment.
[0021] Furthermore, the inner surface of the connecting frame 302 is provided with a snap-fit opening 315, and the snap-fit opening 315 and the protective shell 303 are structurally matched. The snap-fit opening 315 provides precise installation positioning for the protective shell 303. The structurally matched design ensures that the protective shell 303 can be firmly and securely snapped into the connecting frame 302, preventing the protective shell 303 from loosening or shifting during equipment operation, thereby protecting the internal first motor 305 and fan blade 306 from external impacts or impurities.
[0022] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the support base plate 2 is fitted with anti-slip fixing feet 6, and there are multiple anti-slip fixing feet 6 that are parallel to each other. The multiple parallel anti-slip fixing feet 6 can increase the contact area and friction between the support base plate 2 and the ground, effectively preventing the device from sliding displacement due to vibration during operation, improving the overall placement stability of the device, and avoiding the impact of equipment shaking on the corn silk separation effect.
[0023] Furthermore, the second motor 312 is connected to the support crossbar 310 via a fixing block 311, and the fixing block 311 is symmetrically arranged with the vertical center line of the second motor 312 as the axis of symmetry. The symmetrical fixing block 311 can make the force on the second motor 312 on the support crossbar 310 evenly distributed, avoid excessive force on a single connection point leading to loosening or breakage of the connection, enhance the stability of the second motor 312 installation, reduce vibration transmission during motor operation, ensure the stable rotation of the corn silk peeling rubber rod 314, and improve the uniformity and efficiency of corn silk separation.
[0024] Furthermore, a telescopic rod 308 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the upper fixed plate 301, and the telescopic rod 308 is connected to the support crossbar 310. The telescopic rod 308 can drive the support crossbar 310 to move up and down along the limiting guide rod 307, thereby adjusting the height of the second motor 312 and the corn silk peeling rubber soft rod 314 according to the size of the corn ears, realizing the adaptability separation for corn of different specifications and improving the applicability range of the device.
[0025] Furthermore, a corn silk removal rubber rod 314 is attached to the bottom surface of the mounting base plate 313, and there are multiple corn silk removal rubber rods 314. These multiple corn silk removal rubber rods 314 rotate synchronously under the drive of the second motor 312, which can remove the corn silk on the corn positioning rod 5 from different angles, increasing the contact area with the corn silk and improving the separation efficiency. The rubber rod is made of soft and elastic material, which will not cause scratches or squeezing damage to the corn cob during the process of removing the corn silk, thus ensuring the integrity of the corn and the quality of subsequent processing.
[0026] Working principle: When a user needs to use a corn silk separator for corn processing, the user needs to place the device on a flat ground first. The device is placed stably by increasing friction through multiple parallel surfaces at the bottom, thus preventing slippage during operation. Check the connection status of each component to ensure there is no looseness or damage. Also, confirm that the top part matches the size and there is no risk of falling off. Align one end of the corn cob to be separated with the top part of the upper surface and gently insert it to fix the corn cob vertically on the corn positioning rod 5. Ensure that the corn is placed stably to prevent the corn from shaking or falling off during the separation process. Move the telescopic rod 308 up and down to adjust the height of the bottom connection until the bottom of the output shaft sleeve is close to the surface of the corn cob and the pressure is moderate. Stop the telescopic rod 308. Simultaneously, the first motor 305 and the second motor 312 are started. The second motor 312 drives the mounting base plate 313 and the corn silk removal rubber rods 314 to rotate. Multiple rubber rods remove the corn silk from different angles. Because the rubber material is soft, damage to the corn cob is avoided. The symmetrical arrangement ensures the stable operation of the second motor 312 and reduces vibration. The first motor 305 drives the fan blades 306 to rotate, generating airflow to blow the removed corn silk away from the corn cob and the working area of the device in time, preventing the corn silk from getting tangled on the rubber rods or corn and affecting the separation effect. After the corn silk is separated, the second motor 312 and the first motor 305 are turned off. After the fan blades 306 and the corn silk removal rubber rods 314 have completely stopped rotating, the telescopic rod 308 drives the support crossbar 310 to rise and reset. At this time, the limit block 309 limits the support crossbar 310 to prevent it from falling off the limit guide rod 307. The separated corn cob is removed from the corn positioning rod 5. The corn silk remaining on the surface of the device is cleaned, and the condition of each component is checked to prepare for the next separation operation.
