Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural tools technology, specifically to a garlic stalk positioning device. Background Technology

[0002] In garlic processing, stem removal is a crucial pre-treatment step, and its precision directly affects the subsequent storage, processing quality, and commercial value of the garlic. Current garlic stem removal methods largely rely on manual handling of the garlic leaves or stems, combined with shearing equipment, such as the garlic stem removal machine disclosed in patent number 202020507420.X. However, due to the relatively soft texture of garlic stems, operators often unconsciously apply force towards the shearing blade during operation. If the outward force is too great, the garlic bulb can easily come into contact with the shearing blade, causing damage to the garlic itself. Furthermore, manual operation lacks a reliable positioning reference, making it impossible to guarantee the uniformity of the remaining stem length, thus affecting processing efficiency and product consistency.

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, there is an urgent need for a positioning device that can accurately cut garlic stalks, ensure uniform stalk length, and effectively protect the garlic plant from damage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a garlic stalk positioning device, addressing the aforementioned limitations of existing technology. In this device, a positioning element is positioned behind the working surface of the cutting blade to position the garlic clove. When cutting the stalk, the operator holds the garlic leaves or stalk by hand or with a clamp. The garlic clove is fed in from behind the positioning element, pulling the stalk outwards. The garlic clove is blocked by the positioning element and slides down the stalk channel into the cutting blade's working chamber. The cutting blade precisely cuts the stalk extending into the channel, ensuring a uniform stalk length. Simultaneously, the positioning element provides reliable limiting protection for the garlic body, restricting the cutting blade's range of action so that it only contacts the stalk and not the garlic body. This maximizes the preservation of the garlic's integrity while achieving essentially uniform stalk length removal.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A garlic stalk positioning device includes a positioning element, which is disposed behind the working surface of the cutting blade, and a garlic stalk channel is formed on the positioning element.

[0006] To optimize the above technical solution, the present invention adopts the following further measures: In the first preferred embodiment of this utility model: the positioning component includes a positioning plate, on which a garlic stem channel is provided; the positioning plate is provided with a plate connecting part for connecting with a shearing device.

[0007] Furthermore, the inlet end of the garlic stem channel forms a flared garlic stem inlet, and the inlet width of the garlic stem inlet gradually increases along the feeding direction to facilitate the rapid and accurate introduction of garlic stems into the garlic stem channel.

[0008] Furthermore, the positioning plate is provided with a through hole that is adapted to the shearing blade shaft. A bearing for supporting the shaft is installed in the through hole. The bearing enables the shaft to rotate stably and improves the connection stability between the positioning plate and the shearing equipment.

[0009] As a second preferred embodiment of this utility model: the positioning member includes two guide rods, and a garlic rod channel is formed between the two guide rods.

[0010] Furthermore, the guide rod is provided with a support rod, and the end of the support rod is provided with a rod connection part for connecting with the shearing equipment.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper end of the guide rod extends to both sides to form a garlic rod inlet. The inlet width of the garlic rod inlet gradually increases along the feeding direction to guide the garlic rod. The garlic rod inlet extends out of the shearing blade working chamber to further improve the guiding effect and avoid interference between the garlic rod and the shearing blade during the inlet process.

[0012] Furthermore, the positioning component is equipped with a reinforcing component, which includes an auxiliary connecting rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages: 1. Precise positioning and good cutting consistency: This utility model sets a positioning component behind the working surface of the shearing blade. The garlic stem channel on the positioning component provides precise guidance and positioning for the garlic stem. When the operator holds the garlic leaves or garlic stem by hand or uses a clamp to hold the garlic head from behind the positioning component and pulls the garlic stem outward, the garlic head is blocked by the positioning component and slides down along the garlic stem channel into the working cavity of the shearing blade. The shearing blade only cuts the garlic stem that extends into the channel, effectively ensuring the uniformity of the remaining length of all garlic stems. 2. Reliable protection, ensuring the integrity of the garlic: The positioning component provides reliable limiting protection for the garlic body, limiting the range of action of the cutting blade. This ensures that the cutting blade only contacts the garlic stem and does not touch the garlic body, maximizing the integrity of the garlic body and improving product quality.

[0014] This utility model discloses a garlic stalk positioning device, comprising a positioning component disposed behind the working surface of the cutting blade, and having a garlic stalk channel formed thereon. The positioning component, positioned behind the working surface of the cutting blade, provides positioning for the garlic clove. When cutting the stalk, the operator holds the garlic leaves or stalk by hand or with a clamp, and the garlic clove is fed in from behind the positioning component, pulling the stalk outwards. The garlic clove is blocked by the positioning component and slides down along the stalk channel into the working chamber of the cutting blade. The cutting blade precisely cuts the stalk extending into the channel, ensuring a uniform stalk length. Simultaneously, the positioning component provides reliable limiting protection for the garlic body, limiting the working range of the cutting blade so that it only contacts the stalk and not the garlic body. Thus, while achieving essentially uniform stalk length removal, it maximizes the preservation of the garlic body's integrity. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Figures 1 to 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model.

[0018] The attached figures are labeled as follows: positioning component 1, garlic stem channel 11, positioning plate 2, plate connecting part 21, through hole 22, bearing 23, garlic stem inlet 24, guide rod 3, support rod 31, rod connecting part 32, shearing blade 4, auxiliary connecting rod 5.

[0019] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings: Example

[0020] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, the garlic cutting device includes a cutting blade 4 and a support plate. The cutting blade 4 is connected to a power mechanism. The garlic stalk positioning device in this embodiment includes a positioning element 1. The positioning element 1 is located behind the working surface of the cutting blade 4. The positioning element 1 is connected and fixed to the support plate by fasteners or welded. The support plate is provided with corresponding connecting holes. A garlic stalk channel 11 for the garlic stalk to pass through is formed on the positioning element 1.

[0021] In this embodiment, the positioning component 1 adopts the structure of the positioning plate 2, and the garlic stem channel 11 is directly opened on the positioning plate 2; the edge of the positioning plate 2 is provided with a plate connecting part 21, the plate connecting part 21 adopts a bolt hole structure, and the bolt hole is set as an elongated hole. The distance between the positioning plate 2 and the shearing blade 4 can be adjusted through the elongated hole, thereby flexibly adjusting the length of the shearing rod. Then, the positioning plate 2 is fixedly installed in the corresponding position of the shearing equipment by bolts, so as to realize the stable connection between the positioning component 1 and the shearing equipment.

[0022] To facilitate the rapid introduction of garlic stalks into the garlic stalk channel 11, the inlet end of the garlic stalk channel 11 is processed into a flared garlic stalk inlet 24. The inlet width of the garlic stalk inlet 24 gradually increases along the feeding direction (i.e., the direction in which the garlic stalk enters the garlic stalk channel 11), forming a funnel-shaped structure, which plays a good guiding role and effectively reduces the difficulty of introducing garlic stalks. At the same time, multiple garlic cloves can be placed at the garlic stalk inlet 24 of the positioning plate, and multiple garlic stalks or leaves can be pulled to perform the stalk cutting operation in sequence.

[0023] Meanwhile, the positioning plate 2 has a through hole 22 adapted to the shearing blade shaft. A bearing 23 is installed in the through hole 22. The bearing 23 is interference-fitted to the through hole 22, or connected to the surface of the positioning plate 2 through a bearing support. The two are fixed by screws. The shaft of the shearing blade passes through the bearing 23. The bearing 23 can provide stable support for the shaft, ensuring smooth rotation of the shaft and reducing shaft wear. On the other hand, it can further improve the connection stability between the positioning plate 2 and the shearing equipment, prevent the positioning plate 2 from shaking during operation, and ensure positioning accuracy.

[0024] In addition, the positioning component is equipped with a reinforcing component, which includes an auxiliary connecting rod 5. One end of the auxiliary connecting rod 5 is connected to the rear side of the positioning plate 2, and the other end is connected to the support plate behind the shearing blade 4. The two ends of the auxiliary connecting rod 5 can be provided with screw holes for connection with screws. The connection strength of the positioning plate 2 is increased by the auxiliary connecting rod 5. In order to avoid blocking the garlic clove from passing through, the distance between the two auxiliary connecting rods 5 is greater than 80mm.

[0025] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: The operator holds a garlic leaf or garlic stem and feeds the garlic head into the positioning plate 2 from the back. The garlic stem is pulled outward, and the garlic head is blocked by the positioning plate 2 under its own weight and pulling force. The garlic stem enters the garlic stem channel 11 along the garlic stem inlet 24 and slides down into the cutting blade working chamber. The cutting blade 4 is activated to accurately cut the garlic stem. After cutting, the garlic head can be removed. During the operation, the operator's hand makes an outward pulling motion, which tends to move away from the cutting blade 4, improving the safety of operation. Example

[0026] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the garlic stalk positioning device in this embodiment is basically the same as that in embodiment one, with the core difference being the different structural form of the positioning component 1. In this embodiment, the positioning component 1 includes two parallel guide rods 3, and the gap between the two guide rods 3 forms the garlic stalk channel 11.

[0027] A support rod 31 is fixedly connected to the middle of the guide rod 3, and a rod connecting part 32 is provided at the end of the support rod 31. The rod connecting part 32 can adopt a bolt hole structure, and the guide rod 3 is connected and fixed to the bearing plate of the shearing equipment by bolts. The bearing plate is provided with corresponding through holes. Alternatively, a screw section can be provided at the end of the support rod 31, and it can be connected and fixed to the shearing equipment by nuts, which can adapt to the installation requirements of different types of shearing equipment.

[0028] For different installation scenarios, the support rod 31 is structurally configured as follows: When the support rod 31 is connected to the support plate behind the shearing blade 4, the support rod 31 has an extension section and a bending section, which are bent in shape. The extension section is set to both sides of the garlic rod channel 11, and the bending section is connected to the support plate (e.g., Figure 5 (As shown); to avoid obstructing the passage of garlic cloves, the distance between the two bending sections is greater than 80mm, preferably 90mm; when the support rod 31 is connected to the support plates on both sides of the shearing blade 4, the support rod 31 is set as a straight rod; to increase the connection strength, an auxiliary connecting rod 5 is provided on the support rod 31. The support rod 31, the guide rod 3, and the auxiliary connecting rod 5 can be integrally formed or fixed by welding; wherein, the outer diameter of the support rod 31 is smaller than the outer diameter of the guide rod 3, and the auxiliary connecting rod 5 is connected to the support plate by fasteners.

[0029] The upper end of the guide rod 3 extends symmetrically to both sides to form a flared garlic stalk inlet 24. The inlet width of the garlic stalk inlet 24 gradually increases along the feeding direction, and the garlic stalk inlet 24 extends out of the cutting blade working chamber. This structure can more accurately guide the garlic stalk into the garlic stalk channel 11 between the two guide rods 3, while effectively avoiding collision and interference between the garlic stalk and the cutting blade 4 during the inlet process. At the same time, multiple garlic cloves can be placed at the extension section of the guide rod 3, and multiple garlic stalks or leaves can be pulled to perform the stalk cutting operation in sequence.

[0030] The working process of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment one: the operator holds the garlic leaves or garlic stalks and feeds the garlic cloves from behind the two guide rods 3. The garlic stalks are pulled outwards and blocked by the guide rods 3. The garlic stalks enter the garlic stalk channel 11 between the two guide rods 3 along the garlic stalk inlet 24 and slide down into the cutting blade working chamber. The cutting blade 4 precisely cuts the garlic stalks to ensure that the stalk length is uniform and that the garlic cloves do not come into contact with the cutting blade 4, thus ensuring the integrity of the garlic.
