Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of areca nut cleaning technology, specifically to an automatic areca nut roller-type brushing device. Background Technology
[0002] Areca nut is an important tropical economic crop. After harvesting, the fresh fruit needs to undergo a series of processing steps, including washing, blanching, seed soaking, drying, and brine application, before it can be made into products. Among these, the washing process is a key step in ensuring the clean appearance of the areca nut, removing dirt and impurities, and improving the quality of subsequent processing.
[0003] Currently, the industry mainly uses two methods to clean areca nuts: one is manual brushing, where workers pour the areca nuts into a pool or plastic basket and scrub them batch by batch with a hand brush. This method has drawbacks such as high labor intensity, low efficiency, high water consumption, inconsistent cleaning standards, easy damage to the fruit peel, and difficulty in achieving large-scale continuous operation; the other is simple drum washing, where some companies use single-drum drum screens with water spray to clean the nuts by tumbling and spraying. However, relying solely on water rinsing lacks mechanical brushing function and is ineffective at removing stubborn dirt and sand from the surface. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic betel nut roller-type brushing device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic betel nut roller-type brushing device, comprising: A separation box, comprising a main body, with a feed pipe and a discharge pipe fixed to the left and right ends of the main body, respectively. The brushing mechanism includes a rinsing pipe, a filter cartridge assembly, and a first reduction motor that drives the filter cartridge assembly to rotate. The filter cartridge assembly is nested inside the main housing. Both ends of the filter cartridge assembly are rotatably connected to the feed pipe and the discharge pipe, respectively. Multiple brushing components are installed on the inner wall of the filter cartridge assembly. The rinsing pipe is nested inside the filter cartridge assembly. Multiple rinsing nozzles are installed at the lower part of the rinsing pipe. The brushing mechanism is inclined.
[0006] Furthermore, the feed pipe is located at the left end of the separation box, and the discharge pipe is located at the right end of the separation box. The ends of both the feed pipe and the discharge pipe near the separation box extend into the separation box. The filter cartridge assembly includes a filter screen cylinder, and sleeves are fixed at both ends of the filter screen cylinder. The two sleeves are respectively sleeved on the inner ends of the corresponding feed pipe and discharge pipe through bearings, so that the filter cartridge assembly can rotate relative to the feed pipe and discharge pipe. The axes of the feed pipe, discharge pipe, and filter cylinder are all on the same straight line. The feed pipe, discharge pipe, and filter cylinder are all designed with an inclined structure that is higher on the left and lower on the right, which facilitates the movement of areca nut material from left to right.
[0007] Furthermore, a feeding hopper is provided on the upper left side of the feeding pipe, a discharge port is provided on the lower right side of the discharge pipe, and a sewage outlet is provided at the bottom of the main box. The areca nut material is conveniently added into the feeding pipe through the feeding hopper, and the cleaned areca nut material is discharged through the discharge port. Wastewater and impurities generated during the cleaning process are discharged from the sewage outlet.
[0008] Furthermore, the feeding pipe is equipped with a water inlet conveying assembly, which includes a second reduction motor and a hollow conveying shaft. The hollow conveying shaft is nested inside the feeding pipe. The right end of the hollow conveying shaft is connected to the left end of the flushing pipe via a rotary joint. The right end of the flushing pipe extends into the discharge pipe and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the discharge pipe. The left end of the hollow conveying shaft rotates out of the feeding pipe. The left end of the hollow conveying shaft is connected to a water inlet pipe via a rotary joint. The water inlet pipe is connected to an external water source. Clean water enters the hollow conveying shaft through the water inlet pipe, then enters the flushing pipe, and finally sprays out through multiple flushing nozzles at the bottom of the flushing pipe to flush the areca nut material.
[0009] Furthermore, a second transmission gear is fixedly sleeved on the shaft of the hollow conveying shaft outside the feed pipe. The second reduction motor is installed at the bottom of the feed pipe, and the output end of the second reduction motor is connected to a second drive gear. The second drive gear meshes with the second transmission gear. A spiral blade is fixedly sleeved on the shaft of the hollow conveying shaft inside the feed pipe. The operation of the second reduction motor drives the second drive gear to rotate. The rotation of the second drive gear meshes with the second transmission gear, driving the hollow conveying shaft to rotate. The rotation of the hollow conveying shaft drives the spiral blade to rotate, uniformly conveying the areca nut material so that the areca nut material enters the filter cartridge assembly through the feed pipe.
[0010] Furthermore, the first geared motor is installed on the lower left side of the main housing. The output end of the first geared motor extends into the main housing and is connected to the first drive gear. The first transmission gear is fixedly sleeved on the sleeve at the left end. The first drive gear meshes with the first transmission gear. When the first geared motor works, it drives the first drive gear to rotate. The rotation of the first drive gear meshes with the first transmission gear, thereby driving the sleeve to rotate. The rotation of the sleeve drives the filter cartridge assembly to rotate.
[0011] Furthermore, the brushing component includes a cylindrical brush head with bristles distributed around its periphery. A screw is fixed to the side of the cylindrical brush head near the filter cylinder, and the screw passes through the filter cylinder and is connected to a nut. The brushing component and the filter cylinder are detachably connected, which facilitates replacement of the brushing component when it wears out.
[0012] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows: 1. By setting a cylindrical brush head on the inner wall of the filter cylinder and coaxially arranging a rinsing pipe with a rinsing nozzle at the bottom, the cylindrical brush head is driven to mechanically brush the surface of the areca nut when the filter cylinder rotates. At the same time, the rinsing nozzle sprays clean water to rinse the areca nut, realizing brushing and rinsing at the same time, which greatly improves the removal rate of mud, fruit wax and impurities, and makes the cleaning more thorough and uniform. 2. The feed pipe, filter screen cylinder and discharge pipe are coaxial and inclined on the left and right, which helps the material move forward with the help of gravity, saving energy and ensuring smooth discharge without residue. 3. This device can realize continuous operation of automatic feeding, washing, sewage discharge and material discharge, which greatly reduces the intensity of manual labor. Attached Figure Description

Multiple rinsing nozzles 25 are installed at the lower part of the rinsing pipe 21. The brushing mechanism 20 is set at an angle.
[0018] The feed pipe 12 is located at the left end of the separation box 10, and the discharge pipe 13 is located at the right end of the separation box 10. The ends of the feed pipe 12 and the discharge pipe 13 closest to the separation box 10 both extend into the separation box 10. The filter cartridge assembly 22 includes a filter screen cylinder 221. Both ends of the filter screen cylinder 221 are fixed with sleeves 222. The two sleeves 222 are respectively connected to the inner ends of the corresponding feed pipe 12 and discharge pipe 13 through bearings, so that the filter cartridge assembly 22 can rotate relative to the feed pipe 12 and discharge pipe 13. The axes of the feed pipe 12, discharge pipe 13 and filter cylinder 221 are all on the same straight line. The feed pipe 12, discharge pipe 13 and filter cylinder 221 are all set with an inclined structure that is higher on the left and lower on the right, so as to facilitate the movement of areca nut material from left to right.
[0019] A feeding hopper 14 is provided on the upper left side of the feeding pipe 12, and a discharge port 15 is provided on the lower right side of the discharge pipe 13. A sewage outlet 16 is provided at the bottom of the main box 11. The areca nut material is conveniently added into the feeding pipe 12 through the feeding hopper 14. The cleaned areca nut material is discharged through the discharge port 15, and the sewage and impurities generated during the cleaning process are discharged from the sewage outlet 16.
[0020] The feeding pipe 12 is equipped with a water inlet conveying assembly 30, which includes a second reduction motor 31 and a hollow conveying shaft 32. The hollow conveying shaft 32 is nested inside the feeding pipe 12. The right end of the hollow conveying shaft 32 is connected to the left end of the flushing pipe 21 through a rotary joint. The right end of the flushing pipe 21 extends into the discharge pipe 13 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the discharge pipe 13. The left end of the hollow conveying shaft 32 rotates out of the feeding pipe 12. The left end of the hollow conveying shaft 32 is connected to a water inlet pipe 33 through a rotary joint. The water inlet pipe 33 is connected to an external water source. Clean water enters the hollow conveying shaft 32 through the water inlet pipe 33, then enters the flushing pipe 21, and finally sprays out through multiple flushing nozzles 25 at the bottom of the flushing pipe 21 to flush the areca nut material.
[0021] The hollow conveying shaft 32, located outside the feed pipe 12, is fixedly fitted with a second transmission gear 34.

The rotation of the second drive gear 35 meshes with the second transmission gear 34, driving the hollow conveying shaft 32 to rotate. The rotation of the hollow conveying shaft 32 drives the spiral blade 36 to rotate, uniformly conveying the areca nut material so that the areca nut material enters the filter cartridge group 22 through the feed pipe 12.
[0022] The first geared motor 23 is installed on the lower left side of the main housing 11. The output end of the first geared motor 23 extends into the main housing 11 and is connected to the first drive gear 26. The first transmission gear 27 is fixedly sleeved on the sleeve 222 located at the left end. The first drive gear 26 and the first transmission gear 27 are meshed and connected.

[0023] In this utility model, the water inlet pipe 33 is first connected to an external water source, and clean water enters the hollow conveying shaft 32 through the water inlet pipe 33, then enters the flushing pipe 21, and finally sprays out through multiple flushing nozzles 25 at the bottom of the flushing pipe 21. Then, the areca nut material is added into the feed pipe 12 through the feed hopper 14. At the same time, the second reduction motor 31 works to drive the hollow conveying shaft 32 to rotate through the meshing of the second drive gear 35 and the second transmission gear 34. The rotation of the hollow conveying shaft 32 drives the spiral blade 36 to rotate, so as to uniformly convey the areca nut material and uniformly input the areca nut material in the feed pipe 12 into the filter cartridge group 22. As the areca nut material moves within the filter cartridge assembly 22, multiple rinsing nozzles 25 spray clean water to rinse the areca nut material. Simultaneously, the first reduction motor 23 operates by meshing the first drive gear 26 with the first transmission gear 27 to drive the sleeve 222 to rotate. The rotation of the sleeve 222 drives the filter screen cylinder 221 to rotate. The rotation of the filter screen cylinder 221 drives the multiple brushing parts 24 connected to it to rotate as well. The multiple brushing parts 24 continuously collide and rub against the areca nut material, thereby achieving brushing and rinsing of the areca nut material. This achieves brushing and rinsing simultaneously, significantly improving the removal rate of mud, fruit wax, and impurities, resulting in a more thorough and uniform cleaning.
