However, according to the present invention, since the blade hole provided in the abutting portion of the blade object constituting the cutting means is circular, the thickness of the peeling tends to be thin, and in some cases, the original peeling cannot be performed. It happens. For example, depending on the production region and dishes, it may be necessary to peel the skin thickly. In such a case, it is a real problem.

  In this document (1), in the specification [0033], “the cutting edge (36) has a number of holes (41) formed at predetermined intervals in the contact portion (40) of the blade object (35). It is formed and is provided at the upper peripheral edge of the hole (41), and the change in the cutting thickness of the skin (b1) can be obtained by changing the size of the hole (41). The hole diameter is arbitrarily changed depending on the nature and type of the vegetable (b). In this change, the entire blade object (35) is replaced. " In the structure of 41), the skin is directed more greatly by increasing the hole diameter, but the meat part (radish body) of the radish will be peeled off, not suitable for the original peeling, and the ingredients will be wasted, Improvements such as these are conceivable.

  Another document is "Automatic Radish Peeling Machine" disclosed in JP-A-50-12283 (referred to as Document (2)). According to the present invention, “a flat blade plate is provided in multiple stages in three radial directions, and this flat blade plate can be advanced and retracted via a spring, and between the flat blade plates, The radish peel is peeled off in sequence. However, according to the present invention, the blade plate has a structure that advances and retreats, but does not rotate (turns), and it is not considered that the blade plate can be peeled off reliably.

  Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  In the figure, W is a sticky vegetable peeling device, and this sticky vegetable peeling device W is a device that cuts sticky vegetables B (vegetable B), for example, epidermis B1 of rhizome vegetables such as radishes and carrots. is there.

  The outline of the structure is as follows: a machine frame 1 provided on a base H, gripping means 2, 2... (2) attached to the machine frame 1, and a supply path linked to the gripping means 2. 3, operating means 4 for operating the interval 3, feeding means 5 for feeding the vegetable B into the supply path 3, cutting means 6 for cutting the vegetable B, driving means 7 for the cutting means 6, and the machine frame 1 It consists of the discharge means 8 provided in the lower part. And when this vegetable B is pushed by the said feed means 5 along with the holding means 2 and goes down from the upper part and is pushed in non-rotation sequentially, it is with respect to this stationary vegetable B. Basically, a peeling operation is performed through the rotating cutting means 6.

  The gripping means 2 has three or more sets, preferably three sets in a triangular state in the middle part of the machine frame 1 that is formed in a vertically long shape, and is arranged vertically with respect to the transfer of the vegetables B, respectively. Thus, the supply path 3 is formed at the center of the gripping means 2. And this holding means 2 holds the periphery of the longitudinal direction of the rod-shaped vegetable B, and this vegetable B moves to the downward direction from the upper direction of an axial direction (arrow "I"). The gripping means 2 is provided so as to be movable (movable in the centripetal direction) with respect to the center of the supply path 3. For example, the holding plate 2a swingably provided at the free end of the gripping means 2 is linked by a tuning means C in which three sets are operated synchronously. The structure of the tuning means C is in the middle of the machine frame 1 with an interval S (interval for disposing the presser plate 2a described later), and the pressed vegetables 32 of the vegetable B and the feed means 5 described later. Receiving plates 14 and 15 having through holes 28 and 29 (which overlap with the through holes 26 and 27), and swinging upper and lower levers 18 pivoted on the receiving plates 14 and 15 (lever 18 and And through holes 26 and 27 that are rotatably inserted in the circular concave grooves 16 and 17 of the receiving plates 14 and 15 and through which the pressing bodies of the vegetable B and the feeding means 5 described later can communicate. The rotating plates 12 and 13 provided, the inclined locking holes 21 and 22 drilled in the rotating plates 12 and 13, and the inclined locking holes 21 and 22 drilled.

The supernatant fresh water in the water tank 70 is pumped up by a water supply means 71 such as a submersible pump and sprayed at the cutting position by the cutting means 6 to promote cutting and prevent clogging of the cutting waste. The supplied water falls into the water tank 70 again and is circulated by the water supply means 71. Although cutting waste is not shown, a discharge chute is provided in the machine frame to externally It is good to carry out.

  Hereinafter, the action of cutting the epidermis B1 of the radish B2 (vegetable B) using the bar vegetable peeling apparatus W according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. First, the three sets of gripping means 2 supported on the machine frame 1 are retracted, and the presser plate 2a is positioned on the retracted side in the radial direction, and the inlet of the supply path 3 formed on the presser plate 2a From 300, radish B2 is supplied vertically. Then, by operating the cylinder 25 of the operating means 4 and turning the rotating plates 12 and 13 provided rotatably on the receiving plates 14 and 15 provided above and below the gripping means 2, the pin 20 of the lever 18 is locked. It moves along the holes 21 and 22. The lever 18 rotates and the support shaft 9 moves through the arc-shaped long holes 10 and 11 to move the presser plate 2a in the gripping means 2 inward. By the movement of the gripping means 2 in the centripetal direction, the supply path 3 is narrowed, the outer periphery of the radish B2 is gripped with a predetermined pressure, and is set at the approximate rotation center of the cutting means 6.

  At this time, since the outer periphery of the radish B2 is uniformly pressed by the gripping means 2, there is an advantage that even if it has a bend, the bend is corrected and becomes nearly straight. In addition, the vegetable B can be processed in the same manner as described above, even if the vegetable B is connected in one piece or separated into several pieces. Further, the length of the vegetable B is not particularly limited in the processing.

  Thereafter, the cylinder 30 of the feeding means 5 is operated so that the pressing body 32 is brought into contact with the upper end portion of the radish B2, and further, the pressing body 32 is pushed down (lowered) so that the radish B2 moves toward the cutting means 6. It is lowered (paid out). Then, as shown in FIGS. 9B to 9F, each contact portion 40 in the cutting means 6 is pushed by the radish B2 and swings about the support shaft 39, and the skin B1 of the radish B2 Further, the blade edges 36a and 36b correspond to each other, and since the spring 37 always presses the contact portion 40 toward the radish B2 side, a predetermined cutting pressure is constantly applied to the blade edges 36a and 36b. In this state, when the radish B2 is fed out by the feeding means 5 while the cutting means 6 is rotated by the driving means 7 as shown in FIG. 9A, the cutting edge of the cutting means 6 is obtained as shown in FIG. 9B. Since 36a and 36b cut the skin surface of the radish B2 and rotate the peripheral surface of the radish B2, it is continuously and automatically peeled. And since this blade hole 36 is rectangular, and has a predetermined inclination, number, length, etc., the skin B1 is peeled deeply, or if necessary, shallowly or smoothly peeled without resistance. There is a feature such as being able to.

  As described above, the radish B2 that has been peeled is sequentially discharged by the discharging means 8 provided below the cutting means 6 and discharged into the water tank 70 below the radish B2.

  Further, when the peeling of one radish B2 is completed, the gripping means 2 is operated by operating the operation means 4, and when the supply path 3 is opened, the next radish B2 can be inserted. 6 is returned to its original standby position by a spring 37, as shown in FIG.

  If the same operation as described above is repeated, the skin B1 of the radish B2 is removed, and no operator is needed during the cutting, and several units can be operated by one person. It is possible to improve the efficiency of the peeling work and save labor.
