[0002] Euryale ferox, a precious food and medicinal ingredient, is popular among consumers for its kidney-tonifying, spleen-strengthening, diarrhea-relieving, and dampness-removing properties. It has broad application prospects in the food and health product industries. Sorting is a crucial step in the processing of Euryale ferox. Due to various factors affecting its growth, Euryale ferox varies considerably in size, shape, and plumpness. These differences not only affect the appearance of the product but also significantly impact its processing performance and the quality of the final product.

[0003] Currently, the sorting of water chestnuts still largely relies on manual labor. Manual sorting primarily depends on the experience and visual observation of operators, separating water chestnuts of different sizes by hand. This method has several drawbacks. Firstly, manual sorting is inefficient, requiring a significant amount of manpower and time. In large-scale water chestnut production, manual sorting struggles to meet production demands, easily leading to longer production cycles and increased costs. Secondly, the accuracy of manual sorting is greatly affected by the subjective factors of the operators. Different personnel may have different sorting standards, and even the same person can become fatigued after prolonged work, resulting in decreased sorting accuracy and an inability to guarantee the consistency and stability of the sorting results.

[0014] 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.

[0015] This embodiment provides a processing and sorting device for water chestnuts, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the device includes a support base 1 and a screening box 3 located directly above the support base 1. The upper surface of the support base 1 is provided with two support plates 9. An electric cylinder 10 is fixed between the two support plates 9. The telescopic end of the electric cylinder 10 slides through one of the support plates 9. A guide rod 11 is rotatably provided on the side wall of the other support plate 9. Inverted L-shaped plates 7 are fixed at the bottom of the two opposite side walls of the screening box 3. The telescopic end of the electric cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to one of the inverted L-shaped plates 7. A guide hole is provided on the other inverted L-shaped plate 7 that rotatably passes through the guide rod 11. The upper surface of the support base 1 is provided with a push plate 2 that can move laterally back and forth. Specifically, as shown in the figure... Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a movable groove is provided on the upper surface of the support base 1. Threaded rods 12 are rotatably inserted into the two opposite sidewalls of the movable groove. A servo motor is fixedly installed on the sidewall of the support base 1, and the output end of the servo motor extends rotatably into the movable groove and is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 12. The bottom end of the push plate 2 is located in the movable groove and has a threaded hole for threaded insertion into the threaded rod 12. The servo motor provides power for the forward and reverse rotation of the threaded rod 12, thereby driving the push plate 2 to move laterally back and forth within the movable groove. Simultaneously, inclined blocks 4 are fixed at both ends of the bottom wall of the screening box 3. The push plate 2 can alternately contact the inclined surfaces of the inclined blocks 4 to push the screening box 3 to swing back and forth around the guide rod 11 as the rotation center.

[0016] The screening box 3 has an open top and notches on both opposite side walls. A sorting frame 5 is detachably placed inside the screening box 3. The sorting frame 5 has multiple sorting ports 6 positioned opposite the notches. Figure 4As shown, this is used for sorting water chestnut particles. It also includes collection boxes 8 located on both sides of the support base 1. The water chestnuts sieved from the sorting port 6 fall into the collection boxes 8.

[0017] Multiple sorting frames 5 are provided, with the sorting openings 6 of the same sorting frame 5 having the same width. The opening widths of the sorting openings 6 of multiple sorting frames 5 increase sequentially. During screening, the sorting frame 5 with the smallest sorting opening 6 is first placed into the screening box 3. After the small gorgon fruit particles are screened, a sorting frame 5 with a slightly larger sorting opening 6 is replaced to continue screening the slightly larger gorgon fruit particles. This process is repeated until all the gorgon fruit particles are separated. This design allows the gorgon fruit to pass through sorting openings 6 of different widths according to their size, achieving precise sorting. At the same time, the mechanized sorting method avoids the problems of subjective factors, inconsistent sorting standards among different personnel, and decreased sorting accuracy due to personnel fatigue in manual sorting, ensuring the consistency and stability of the sorting results and improving the appearance quality and processing performance of the gorgon fruit product.

[0018] To reduce frictional resistance when the push plate 2 contacts the inclined surface, the upper end of the push plate 2 is designed as a semi-circular structure, with ball bearings 13 rotatably embedded on both sides of the upper end of the semi-circular structure for rolling contact with the inclined surfaces of the two inclined blocks 4. This reduces friction when the push plate 2 drives the ball bearings 13 to contact the inclined surfaces of the inclined blocks 4. Simultaneously, to enhance the stability of the push plate 2 during lateral reciprocating motion, extension blocks are fixed to both side walls of the push plate 2, and rollers 14 are rotatably mounted on the bottom walls of both extension blocks. The two rollers 14 are respectively rolled on the side walls of the moving groove opening. By adding rollers 14 on both sides, the support ratio of the push plate 2 is increased, enhancing stability during movement.

[0019] The sorting process is as follows: Start the servo motor, which drives the threaded rod 12 to rotate. Since the bottom end of the push plate 2 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 12, and the push plate 2 is restricted by the moving groove to only move laterally, the rotation of the threaded rod 12 will drive the push plate 2 to make a lateral reciprocating translational motion in the moving groove.

[0020] At the same time, the electric cylinder 10 is activated, and the telescopic end of the electric cylinder 10 moves in a telescopic motion, which drives the inverted L-shaped plate 7 that is rotatably connected to it to move. Since the other inverted L-shaped plate 7 is rotatably connected to the guide rod 11 through the guide hole, the screening box 3 will swing back and forth with the guide rod 11 as the rotation center.

[0021] During the reciprocating swing of the screening box 3, the push plate 2 alternately contacts the inclined surfaces of the inclined blocks 4 fixed at both ends of the bottom wall of the screening box 3. When the push plate 2 contacts the inclined surface of the inclined block 4, it will exert a force on the inclined block 4, pushing the screening box 3 to swing further, thereby enhancing the swing effect of the screening box 3 and making the water chestnut roll and disperse better inside the screening box 3.

[0022] During the tumbling process within the screening box 3, the water chestnuts pass through the sorting openings 6 of different widths on the sorting frame 5 according to their size. Smaller water chestnuts will first pass through the narrower sorting opening 6 and fall into the corresponding recycling bin 8 below, while larger water chestnuts continue to tumble within the screening box 3 until they pass through the appropriately wide sorting opening 6 and fall into the corresponding recycling bin 8, thus achieving precise sorting of the water chestnuts.

[0023] In summary, this design uses an electric cylinder 10 to drive the screening box 3 to swing back and forth around the guide rod 11 as the rotation center. At the same time, the push plate 2, which can move laterally back and forth, alternately contacts the inclined surface of the inclined block 4, so as to realize the regular up and down swing of the screening box 3. This allows the water chestnut to tumble and disperse quickly in the screening box 3, accelerating the sorting process. Compared with the traditional manual sorting method, it improves the sorting efficiency, meets the needs of large-scale production and processing of water chestnut, effectively shortens the production cycle, and reduces production costs.

[0024] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
