Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seed and pod cutting and pretreatment technology, specifically a bitter gourd and loofah seed and pod cutting and pretreatment device. Background Technology

[0002] To cut the seeds and pods of bitter gourd and loofah, select mature pods. Choose bitter gourds that are orange-yellow with slightly wrinkled skin, and loofahs that are yellowish and slightly soft to the touch. At this stage, the seeds are plump. Before cutting, wash the pods and use a sharp knife to make a longitudinal cut along the pod, applying moderate pressure to avoid damaging the seeds. Bitter gourd pods contain a sticky sap; after cutting, let them air dry in a cool, shady place for a while before rinsing the seeds with clean water. For loofah pods, simply remove the seeds directly after cutting.

[0003] Currently, in the process of extracting bitter gourd and loofah seeds, the cutting of pods mostly relies on manual operation. Operators need to hold a knife and cut each mature pod longitudinally, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and time and is inefficient, but also causes poor damage to the pod structure, making it difficult to extract the seeds and meet the needs of large-scale seed extraction. To address this, we propose a pretreatment device for cutting bitter gourd and loofah seed pods. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pre-treatment device for cutting bitter gourd and loofah seeds and pods, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A pre-treatment device for cutting bitter gourd and loofah seeds and pods includes: a processing table, a rectangular groove extending through the center of the top plate of the processing table, an adjustment mechanism installed in the rectangular groove, cutting mechanisms installed on both sides of the rectangular groove, and a limit mechanism installed in the center of the top surface of the processing table.

[0007] The cutting mechanism includes two fixed plates. A lead screw is rotatably connected to one side wall of the two fixed plates that are close to each other. A first limiting rod is also fixedly connected to one side wall of the two fixed plates that are close to each other. A sliding block is slidably connected to the surface of the first limiting rod. An arc-shaped plate is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding block near the rectangular groove. Multiple threaded rods are threaded onto the arc-shaped plate. A needle body is fixedly connected to the threaded end of each threaded rod.

[0008] The adjustment mechanism includes two rotating rollers located in a rectangular groove. The distance between the two rotating rollers is adjustable, and the two rotating rollers are rotatable. Multiple conical protrusions are fixedly connected to the circumferential surfaces of the two rotating rollers.

[0009] The limiting mechanism includes a movable limiting plate located on two rotating rollers.

[0010] Preferably, the cutting mechanism further includes a first rotating motor fixedly mounted on one of the fixed plates, the output end of the first rotating motor passing through the wall of the fixed plate and fixedly connected to the end of the lead screw, and the sliding block being threaded onto the lead screw.

[0011] Preferably, a square groove is formed on one side wall of the processing table, and a third rotary motor is fixedly installed in the square groove. The adjustment mechanism also includes a second limiting rod fixedly connected to the two adjacent side walls of the rectangular groove. A bidirectional threaded rod is also rotatably connected to the two adjacent side walls of the rectangular groove. Sliding plates are threadedly sleeved at both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod. The two sliding plates are slidably connected to the second limiting rod. The output end of the third rotary motor passes through the groove wall of the square groove and is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional threaded rod.

[0012] Preferably, the top surface of the sliding plate is fixedly connected to two fixed blocks at both ends, and the rotating roller is rotatably connected to one side wall of the two fixed blocks that are close to each other. The wall of the fixed block is also fixedly connected to a second rotating motor, and the output end of the second rotating motor passes through the wall of the fixed block and is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating roller.

[0013] Preferably, the limiting mechanism further includes a mounting bracket fixedly connected to the top surface of the processing table, an electric push rod fixedly sleeved on the top of the mounting bracket, and the top surface of the limiting plate fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod.

[0014] Preferably, a support frame is fixedly connected to the lower part of the rectangular groove, and a collection box is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the support frame.

[0015] Preferably, support legs are fixedly connected to each of the four corners of the processing table.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] This invention utilizes a rotating roller, a needle, and a first rotating motor. The output of the first rotating motor rotates in both directions, driving the lead screw to rotate in both directions, which in turn causes the sliding block to slide back and forth on the first limiting rod. The needle on the arc plate cuts the bitter gourd or loofah, saving time and effort. After cutting, the two rotating rollers are moved apart, and then two second rotating motors are activated. The outputs of the two second rotating motors rotate in opposite directions, causing a conical protrusion to insert into the surface of the bitter gourd or loofah. This squeezes the bitter gourd or loofah, causing it to fall into the collection box, further damaging the pod structure and facilitating later seed extraction, thus meeting the needs of large-scale seed extraction.

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.

[0026] like Figures 1-5As shown, a pre-treatment device for cutting bitter gourd and loofah seeds and pods includes: a processing table 1, a rectangular groove through the center of the top plate of the processing table 1, an adjustment mechanism 5 inside the rectangular groove, a cutting mechanism 4 on both sides of the rectangular groove, a limiting mechanism 6 in the center of the top surface of the processing table 1, the cutting mechanism 4 including two fixed plates 41, a lead screw 42 rotatably connected to one side wall of the two fixed plates 41, a first limiting rod 43 fixedly connected to one side wall of the two fixed plates 41, a sliding block 44 slidably connected to the surface of the first limiting rod 43, an arc plate 46 fixedly connected to one end of the sliding block 44 near the rectangular groove, a plurality of threaded rods 47 threadedly sleeved on the arc plate 46, a needle body 48 fixedly connected to the threaded end of each threaded rod 47, the cutting mechanism 4 also includes a first rotating motor 45 fixedly installed on one of the fixed plates 41, the output end of the first rotating motor 45 passing through the wall of the fixed plate 41 and fixedly connected to the end of the lead screw 42, and the sliding block 44 threadedly sleeved on the lead screw 42.

[0027] In practice, the bitter gourd or loofah is fixed on two rotating rollers 55, and the first rotating motor 45 is started. The output end of the first rotating motor 45 drives the lead screw 42 to rotate in both directions, thereby causing the sliding block 44 to slide back and forth on the first limit rod 43. The bitter gourd or loofah is cut by using the needle 48 on the arc plate 46, which saves time and effort. The cutting depth can be adjusted by rotating the threaded rod 47 to change the position of the needle 48, which enhances the practicality of the device.

[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the adjusting mechanism 5 includes two rotating rollers 55 located in a rectangular groove. The distance between the two rotating rollers 55 is adjustable, and the two rotating rollers 55 are rotatable. Multiple conical protrusions 56 are fixedly connected to the circumferential surfaces of both rotating rollers 55. The limiting mechanism 6 includes a movable limiting plate 63 located on the two rotating rollers 55. A square groove 7 is opened on one side wall of the processing table 1. A third rotating motor 8 is fixedly installed in the square groove 7. The adjusting mechanism 5 also includes a second limiting rod 51 fixedly connected to the two adjacent side walls of the rectangular groove. Rotary connecting rods 51 are also present on the two adjacent side walls of the rectangular groove. A bidirectional threaded rod 52 is connected to the two ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 52, and sliding plates 53 are threadedly connected to both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 52. The two sliding plates 53 are slidably connected to the second limiting rod 51. The output end of the third rotating motor 8 passes through the groove wall of the square groove 7 and is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional threaded rod 52. The top surfaces of the sliding plates 53 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the fixed plates 53. The rotating roller 55 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the two fixed blocks 54 that are close to each other. The wall plate of the fixed block 54 is also fixedly connected to the second rotating motor 57. The output end of the second rotating motor 57 passes through the wall plate of the fixed block 54 and is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating roller 55.

[0029] In practice, by starting the third rotating motor 8, the output end of the third rotating motor 8 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 52 to rotate, which can drive the two rotating rollers 55 to move closer or further apart, so as to process bitter gourds or loofahs of different sizes. After the bitter gourds or loofahs are cut, the two rotating rollers 55 are moved apart, and then the two second rotating motors 57 are started. The output ends of the two second rotating motors 57 rotate in the opposite direction, which can drive the conical protrusions 56 to insert into the surface of the bitter gourds or loofahs, squeeze the bitter gourds or loofahs, and let them fall into the collection box 3, which can further destroy the pod structure of the bitter gourds or loofahs, making it easier to harvest seeds later.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the limiting mechanism 6 also includes a mounting frame 61 fixedly connected to the top surface of the processing table 1. An electric push rod 62 is fixedly sleeved on the top of the mounting frame 61. The top surface of the limiting plate 63 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 62. A support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rectangular groove. A collection box 3 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the support frame 2. Support legs 9 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the processing table 1.

[0031] In practice, the electric push rod 62 is activated, and the extension end of the electric push rod 62 drives the limiting plate 63 to move downward, which can limit and fix the top of multiple bitter gourds or loofahs on the two rotating rollers 55, making it easier to cut the bitter gourds or loofahs. The processed bitter gourds or loofahs are collected by the collection box 3.

[0032] In use, this invention involves placing multiple bitter gourds or loofahs on two rotating rollers 55, activating the electric push rod 62, which in turn moves the limiting plate 63 downward to limit and fix the tops of the multiple bitter gourds or loofahs on the two rotating rollers 55. Then, the output of the first rotating motor 45 rotates forward and backward to drive the lead screw 42 to rotate forward and backward, thereby causing the sliding block 44 to slide back and forth on the first limiting rod 43. The bitter gourds or loofahs are cut by the needles 48 on the arc plate 46. After the bitter gourds or loofahs are cut, the two rotating rollers 55 are moved apart, and then the two second rotating motors 57 are activated. The outputs of the two second rotating motors 57 rotate inward in the opposite direction, causing the conical protrusion 56 to insert into the surface of the bitter gourds or loofahs, squeezing them and causing them to fall into the collection box 3.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
