Description

Fruit peeler

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of fruit processing equipment, in particular to a fruit peeling machine.

Background

As shown in figure 1, the top of the connecting rod is hinged through a torsion spring, the paring knife is arranged at the tail end of the connecting rod, the blade on the left side of the paring knife props against the skin of the fruit to perform paring, and the fruit pushes the paring knife to swing rightwards at a thick fruit pulp position; at the thinner pulp, the peeling knife swings back to the left under the action of elasticity, so that the peel can be cut. However, when the peeling knife swings, the angle of the upper left blade changes (θ 1 → θ 2), that is, the angle at which the blade of the peeling knife cuts into the fruit peel changes, and when peeling a fruit having an irregular surface shape, such as a pear, the blade may not cut the fruit peel. Therefore, the currently mainly adopted solution is to scan the peripheral outline of the fruit, and then adopt the traverse linear module to drive the connecting rod to drive the peeling knife to be close to or far away from the central shaft together according to the shape of the peripheral outline of the fruit, so that the blade of the peeling knife can be in real time contact with the skin of the fruit, and the situation that the peeling knife cannot cut the skin of the fruit is avoided. This scheme need increase sideslip sharp module, and the expense is high and use inconvenience, and sideslip sharp module translation rate of movement is slow moreover, has increased process time.

The moving plate 8 is fixed at the middle section of the traverse push rod 71, moves rightwards on the top of the mounting plate 1 as the traverse push rod 71 extends rightwards, and moves leftwards on the top of the mounting plate 1 as the traverse push rod 71 retracts leftwards. The peeling device 9 is arranged on the movable plate 8 and the peeling knife extends downwards to the fruit placing position 11 to peel the fruit.

Starting from the state of fig. 3, the traverse push rod 71 is retracted leftward: on one hand, the transverse moving push rod 71 drives the moving plate 8 to move leftwards, and the peeling device 9 moves leftwards along with the moving plate 8 until the peeling device 9 is aligned with the fruit placing position 11; on the other hand, the positioning bracket 51 and the positioning piece 52 are driven to move leftwards, the positioning bracket 51 drives the upper side of the synchronous belt 21 to move leftwards, at the moment, the synchronous belt 21 moves anticlockwise around the two synchronous wheels 22, the lower side of the synchronous belt 21 moves rightwards so as to drive the denucleation bracket 31 and the sleeve 32 to move rightwards, then the denucleation device 3 and the positioning device 5 can move relatively to be closed under the driving of the closing driving mechanism 2, until the sleeve top block 321 and the positioning top block 521 in the figure 4 respectively abut against the fruits with the central axes of the fruit pits on the left side and the right side, and therefore the fruits are positioned at the fruit. The three sleeve tops 321 and the three positioning tops 521 are distributed around the central axes of the sleeve 32 and the positioning member 52, respectively, so as to stably clamp the fruit.

The inside cavity of sleeve 32, hold a nuclear section of thick bamboo 4 and install transversely in sleeve 32, hold a nuclear section of thick bamboo 4 front end and be the girdling sword 42 of wave anchor ring face, establish the actuating mechanism that denucleates in sleeve 32 and push and hold a nuclear section of thick bamboo 4 and place position 11 removal towards fruit, the girdling sword 42 that holds a nuclear section of thick bamboo 4 inserts fruit separation pulp and fruit nuclear, at this moment, the pole 6 that denucleates who installs transversely in fruit setting element 52 places the position 11 removal towards fruit and thereby promotes the fruit nuclear and get into completely and hold a nuclear section of thick bamboo 4, the actuating mechanism that denucleates drives and holds a nuclear section of thick bamboo 4 and return in the sleeve 32 together with the fruit nuclear of staying in holding a nuclear section of. Through grooves 41 are axially symmetrically formed in two side walls of the core containing cylinder 4, so that the core containing cylinder 4 can conveniently separate the core and the pulp of the fruit.

The fruit is inserted into the core containing barrel 4 from one end of the fruit core for removing the core, the core removing rod 6 pushes the fruit core from the end of the fruit core back to the core containing barrel 4 to the position of the core containing barrel 4 until the end of the core removing rod 6 extends into the core containing barrel 4 from the ring cutting blade 42 of the core containing barrel 4, the fruit core is pushed into the core containing barrel 4 completely, and the core containing barrel 4 is enabled to withdraw along with the fruit core. The core containing barrel 4 is internally and transversely provided with a material returning rod 43, and after the core containing barrel 4 can return the fruit core, the material returning rod 43 moves towards the fruit placing position 11 to push the fruit core to fall out of the core containing barrel 4. This state is as shown in fig. 4.

The positioning member 52 and the sleeve 32 are respectively provided with a rotary driving device, and the positioning member 52 and the sleeve 32 synchronously rotate around the central shaft of the positioning member and the sleeve under the driving of the respective rotary driving devices, so that the fruit is driven to rotate around the central shaft of the fruit pit, and the peeling device 9 extending to the fruit placing position 11 peels the fruit.

Referring to fig. 5, a link 92 is hinged to the base 91 so as to swing right to approach the fruit, and an auxiliary lever 94 is also hinged to the base 91 so as to swing right, a swing fulcrum 941 of the auxiliary lever 94 being right to a swing fulcrum 921 of the link 92, and a tip of the auxiliary lever 94 being right to a tip of the link 92. The swing fulcrum 941 and the distal end of the auxiliary lever 94 are in the same vertical plane as the swing fulcrum 921 and the distal end of the link 92. The end of the link 92 is hinged to the peeler blade 93 and the end of the auxiliary bar 93 is also hinged to the peeler blade 93 so that the peeler blade 93 can swing relative to the link 92 and relative to the auxiliary bar 94. The peeling knife 3 is a hollow circular ring, and the blade 931 of the peeling knife 93 is provided on an arc section of the end of the circular ring, facing the fruit side.

The force application device comprises a swing driving device 95 and a swing connecting rod 951, one end of the swing connecting rod 951 is connected with the swing driving device 95, and the other end of the swing connecting rod 951 is connected with the top end of the connecting rod 2. The swing driving device 95 drives the swing link 951 to move left and right, so that the link 92 swings to the right and back to the left. See the schematic of fig. 6. The peeling knife 93 tends to swing counterclockwise as the connecting rod 92 swings right, but the auxiliary rod 94 swings right, which tends to swing the peeling knife 93 clockwise, so the angle change of the peeling knife 93 is relatively small. In this embodiment, the swinging distance between the

swinging fulcrums

941 and 921 is L1, the distance between the ends of the auxiliary lever 94 and the link 92 is L2, and L1 is L2, so the angle of the peeling knife 93 remains substantially constant as the link 92 and the auxiliary lever 94 swing.

The urging means may instead be a torsion spring provided at the swing fulcrum 921. The urging means may be changed to urge the auxiliary lever 4 instead of the link 92, and the same effect can be achieved.
