Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seed collection technology, and in particular to a small watermelon seed collector. Background Technology

[0002] In watermelon breeding and seed copying, the watermelon seeds need to be removed. Before removal, the watermelon is cut into two semi-circular structures to separate the flesh from the seeds. This separation is usually done manually by scooping out the flesh and then squeezing the seeds to separate them from the flesh. This puts a lot of pressure on the seeds, which can easily damage them and affect the quality of seed collection. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem in the existing technology where seeds are separated from the pulp by squeezing, which easily leads to seed damage and affects the quality of seed collection. Therefore, a small watermelon seed collector is proposed.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A small watermelon seed collector is designed, comprising a base, a support plate fixedly connected to the base, a fixing frame fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate, a first telescopic rod fixedly connected to the fixing frame, a motor fixedly connected to the lower end of the first telescopic rod, a stirring shaft fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, a stirring roller fixedly connected to the stirring shaft, a fixing mechanism provided on the support plate, a filter screen inclinedly connected to the lower end of the support plate, a collection mechanism provided at the lower end of the filter screen, and a waste bin placed on the base, the waste bin being located directly below the filter screen.

[0005] Preferably, the collection mechanism includes a material guiding section connected to the lower end of the filter screen, and a collection box is placed on the base, with the collection box located directly below the material guiding section.

[0006] Preferably, the collection box is equipped with a discharge valve.

[0007] Preferably, the support plate is fixedly connected to the two sides of the filter screen with retaining edges.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes a second telescopic rod, one end of which is fixedly connected to a vacuum suction cup, the vacuum suction cup being provided with an exhaust valve, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a stop.

[0009] Preferably, a water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the support plate.

[0010] The present invention proposes a small watermelon seed collector, which has the following advantages: the stirring shaft is driven by a motor to rotate, which causes the stirring roller to rotate and crush the pulp. Since the seeds are harder than the pulp, and the rubber sleeve provides a soft buffer when in contact with the seeds, it helps to prevent damage to the seeds. Attached Figure Description

[0011] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a small watermelon seed collector proposed in this utility model; Figure 2 This is a perspective view of a small watermelon seed collector proposed in this utility model; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a small watermelon seed collector motor proposed in this utility model.

Filter screen; 11. Collection box; 12. Material guide; 13. Support plate; 14. Fixing frame; 15. Discharge valve; 16. Waste bin; 17. Baffle. Detailed Implementation

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0014] Example 1: Refer to Figure 1-3 A small watermelon seed collector includes a base 1, a support plate 13 fixedly connected to the base 1, a fixing frame 14 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate 13, a first telescopic rod 3 fixedly connected to the fixing frame 14, the first telescopic rod 3 is a hydraulic telescopic rod, and a motor 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the first telescopic rod 3. The motor 4 is a waterproof motor to prevent water from splashing when the pulp is mashed, which could damage the motor 4.

[0015] A stirring shaft 6 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of motor 4, and a stirring roller 5 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 6. The surface of the stirring roller 5 is provided with a rubber sleeve for cushioning and to prevent damage to the seeds. A fixing mechanism is provided on the support plate 13, and a filter screen 10 is inclinedly connected to the lower end of the support plate 13. The filter screen 10 filters the crushed pulp and seeds. The seeds are intercepted and enter the feed guide section 12, while the crushed pulp enters the waste bin 16 through the filter screen 10. A collection mechanism is provided at the lower end of the filter screen 10. The waste bin 16 is placed on the base 1 and is located directly below the filter screen 10. The stirring shaft 6 is driven by motor 4 to rotate, which causes the stirring roller 5 to rotate and crush the pulp. Since the hardness of the seeds is higher than that of the pulp, and the rubber sleeve provides a flexible cushioning effect when in contact, it helps to prevent damage to the seeds.

[0016] Example 2: Refer to Figure 1-3 As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, based on embodiment 1, the collection mechanism includes a guide section 12, which is connected to the lower end of the filter screen 10. A collection box 11 is placed on the base 1, and the collection box 11 is located directly below the guide section 12. The collection box 11 is used to collect the seeds, and water is put into the collection box 11 so that the plump seeds sink to the bottom and the unplump seeds float on the surface of the water.

[0017] The collection box 11 is equipped with a discharge valve 15, which allows water to be discharged after the floating seeds are scooped out, so that the seeds can be removed.

[0018] The support plate 13 is fixedly connected to the two sides of the filter screen 10 with baffles 17. The baffles 17 serve to block and prevent the pulp from rolling out from the edge of the filter screen 10.

[0019] Example 3: Reference Figure 1-3 As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, based on embodiment 2, the fixing mechanism includes a second telescopic rod 7. The second telescopic rod 7 is a friction telescopic rod. One end of the second telescopic rod 7 is fixedly connected to a vacuum suction cup 8, and an exhaust valve 9 is provided on the vacuum suction cup 8. The other end of the second telescopic rod 7 is fixedly connected to the baffle 17. Since the surface of the watermelon is smooth, the vacuum suction cup 8 is used to fix the watermelon and prevent the watermelon from rotating when the pulp is mashed.

[0020] A water inlet pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the support plate 13. The water inlet pipe 2 is connected to an external water pipe to rinse the pulp on the filter screen 10, which facilitates the separation of the pulp from the seeds.

[0021] During collection, the watermelon is first cut into two hemispherical structures. The vacuum suction cup 8 is used to press against the outer wall of the watermelon to expel the internal air and fix the watermelon in place. Then, the motor 4 rotates, driving the stirring shaft 6 to rotate. The stirring shaft 6 drives the stirring roller 5 to rotate. At the same time, the first telescopic rod 3 extends, causing the stirring roller 5 to descend, opening the pulp and separating it from the seeds. The exhaust valve 9 is opened to allow air to enter, releasing the watermelon from its fixation. The rind is then removed. The water inlet pipe 2 is opened, and water washes the pulp and seeds onto the filter screen 10. The filter screen 10 separates the pulp from the seeds. The pulp passes through the filter screen 10 and enters the waste bin 16, while the seeds are intercepted by gravity and enter the guide section 12, finally falling into the collection bin 11 for collection.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
