[0020] To better understand this utility model, the following embodiments further illustrate its content, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described below. Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a more thorough understanding of this utility model. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model can be practiced without one or more of these details.
[0021] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a chili chopping device includes a processing box 101, in which a seed-removing sieve cylinder 102 is vibratingly installed. The processing box 101 is also equipped with a limiting module for locking and resetting the seed-removing sieve cylinder 102. A top cover 103 is detachably installed on the processing box 101. A vertically lifting mounting frame 104 is installed on the top cover 103. A stirring shaft 105 is rotatably installed on the mounting frame 104. A chopping blade 106 adapted to the seed-removing sieve cylinder 102 is installed on the stirring shaft 105. A feed pipe 107 is installed at the bottom of the seed-removing sieve cylinder 102. A control valve 108 is installed on the feed pipe 107. An outlet pipe 109 is obliquely inserted through the side end of the processing box 101. A guide hose 110 is installed between the feed pipe 107 and the outlet pipe 109. The feeding pipe 107 is equipped with a control valve 108. Combined with the connection between the guide hose 110 and the discharge pipe 109, the timing and flow rate of discharge can be precisely controlled, which facilitates the connection with subsequent processes.
[0022] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the top cover 103 is provided with a feed hopper 201 that is compatible with the seed removal screen cylinder 102, the bottom of the processing box 101 is provided with a discharge pipe 202, and the bottom side of the processing box 101 is also provided with a support leg 203.
[0023] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the lower end of the seed removal screen cylinder 102 is a conical shape that matches the feed pipe 107, and the lower end of the processing box 101 is a conical shape that matches the discharge pipe 202.
[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, a fixed frame 301 is provided on the upper inner side wall of the processing box 101, and an installation frame 302 is provided on the side end of the seed removal screen cylinder 102. A vibration spring 303 is provided between the fixed frame 301 and the installation frame 302, and a vibration motor 304 is also provided on the installation frame 302.
[0025] like Figure 3As shown, a guide cylinder 305 is also provided on the fixed frame 301, and a guide rod 306 that is inserted into the guide cylinder 305 is provided on the mounting frame 302. The cooperative design of the guide cylinder 305 and the guide rod 306 ensures that the seed removal screen cylinder 102 runs smoothly during vibration, reduces polarization or shaking, and improves the stability and service life of the equipment.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the processing box 101 is also provided with a mounting groove 401. A bidirectional screw 402 is vertically rotatably mounted in the mounting groove 401. An adjusting motor 403 for driving the rotation of the bidirectional screw 402 is provided on the mounting groove 401. Mounting blocks 404 that are slidably connected to the mounting groove 401 are screwed to both sides of the bidirectional screw 402. Fixing clamps 405 for locking and resetting the mounting frame 302 are respectively provided on the two mounting blocks 404.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the mounting frame 302 is also provided with an isolation cover 406 covering the outside of the seed removal screen cylinder 102.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, a telescopic push rod 501 is provided on the top cover 103. The output shaft of the telescopic push rod 501 is connected to the mounting frame 104. A guide slot 502 located on the side end of the telescopic push rod 501 is provided on the top cover 103. A guide plate 503 that is inserted into the guide slot 502 is provided on the mounting frame 104. A pulverizing motor 504 is provided on the mounting frame 104. The output shaft of the pulverizing motor 504 is connected to the stirring shaft 105 through a coupling 505.
[0029] In the initial state, the two fixed clamping plates 405 clamp and lock the mounting frame 302, ensuring that the vertical position of the mounting frame 302 and the seed removal screen 102 matches the stirring shaft 105 and the crushing blades. Then, the chili peppers to be processed can be fed into the feed hopper 201 on the top cover 103, falling into the vibrating seed removal screen 102. The crushing motor 504 can then be started, driving the stirring shaft 105 to rotate, and the shredding blades 106 on it cut and crush the chili peppers. Simultaneously, the telescopic push rod 501 controls the mounting frame 104 to reciprocate up and down according to a set program, causing the shredding blades 106 to move vertically while rotating, enhancing the stirring effect, preventing material accumulation, and improving the uniformity of chopping.
[0030] Then, by adjusting the motor 403 to drive the bidirectional screw 402 to rotate in the opposite direction, the two mounting blocks 404 can slide towards or away from each other, so that the fixing clamp 405 can loosen its lock on the mounting frame 302, allowing the seed removal screen cylinder 102 to vibrate vertically; and the output axis of the telescopic push rod 501 can be shortened by a certain length. Through the vertical insertion and cooperation of the guide plate 503 and the guide slot 502, the mounting frame 104, drive motor, stirring shaft 105 and shredding blade 106 can be reset upwards, avoiding interference with the subsequent vibration operation of the seed removal screen cylinder 102.
[0031] Then, the vibration motor 304 can be started to drive the mounting frame 302 to vibrate. The vibration is transmitted to the seed removal screen cylinder 102 through the vibration spring 303, and the seed removal screen cylinder 102 generates stable high-frequency vibration through the vertical insertion and cooperation of the guide tube 305 and the guide rod 306. The chili fragments are vibrated inside the screen cylinder. Smaller fragments fall through the screen and downwards, while larger chili seeds are trapped inside the screen cylinder or slide down the screen surface. The conical bottom design of the seed removal screen cylinder 102 is conducive to the concentrated discharge of materials and improves the discharge efficiency.
[0032] Chili flakes passing through the sieve holes of the seed-removing sieve cylinder 102 are discharged through the feed pipe 107, separating the chili seeds. After this process, the control valve 108 can be opened, transferring the chili flakes back to the seed-removing sieve cylinder 102 via the feed pipe 107 and then conveying them to the discharge pipe 109 via the guide hose 110, achieving precise control of the discharge timing and flow rate. Chili seeds that do not pass through the sieve gradually move towards the end of the sieve cylinder under vibration and are finally discharged through the discharge pipe 202 at the bottom of the processing box 101. The bottom of the processing box 101 has a conical design to facilitate the complete discharge of residual seeds, reducing residue.
[0033] According to another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the top cover 103 is snapped into the processing box 101. The top cover 103 is provided with a fastening bolt 112 for screwing into the processing box 101, and the processing box 101 is provided with a threaded fastening hole for screwing into the fastening bolt 112. Simply snapping the top cover 103 into the processing box 101 and then screwing the fastening bolt 112 through the side wall of the top cover 103 and into the threaded fastening hole allows for flexible fixing of the top cover 103 and the processing box 101. Conversely, simply separating the fastening bolt 112 from the threaded fastening hole and releasing the connection between the top cover 103 and the processing box 101, and then reliably locking it in place with the fastening bolt 112, facilitates equipment maintenance and cleaning. Simultaneously, it ensures good sealing during operation, preventing dust leakage and meeting food processing hygiene requirements.
[0034] According to another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1As shown, a transparent observation window 111 is also provided on the side of the processing box 101. Through the transparent observation window 111, the user can monitor the internal working status in real time, which makes it easy to detect the progress of chili processing, blockage or abnormality in a timely manner, thereby improving operational safety and management convenience.
[0035] The above are preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
