The lateral repositioning member 24 is a rectangular coil spring. A guide hole is opened in the slider 23, and the bottom end of the pressing means 3 penetrates into the guide hole.
The bottom seat 1 fixedly supports the lateral moving means 2 via the vertical column 12. The slider 23 can move laterally in the lateral movement groove 22. Since the bottom end of the pressing means 3 penetrates into the guide hole in the slider 23, the pressing means 3 can be moved laterally in conjunction with the slider 23. Further, the lateral repositioning member 24 can be compressed by the slider 23. When the pressing means 3 is released, the slider 23 is restored by the lateral return member 24, which contributes to continuous work.
Here, since the lateral repositioning member 24 is a rectangular coil spring, the repositioning strength can be improved and the slider 23 can be ensured to be stably repositioned. Further, in order to prevent the slider 23 from moving up and down with respect to the lateral movement holder 21, the slider 23 may have an E-shaped configuration, and the lateral movement holder 21 supports the slider 23 by the E-shaped configuration.

In order to make the lateral movement of the block 4 ideal, in this embodiment, the stopper plate 52 is attached to the back surface of the bottom seat 1.

42 is a rectangular coil spring. The connecting member 33 is installed at the top end of the mounting rod 41. Horizontal push rod 31 is 2
It is installed through the two connecting members 33. The guide roller 34 is rotatably installed in the connecting member 33. The guide roller 34 is provided with a ring-shaped concave groove along the circumferential direction, and the lateral push rod 31 is installed in the ring-shaped concave groove in the tangential direction thereof. A handle 32 is provided at the end of the horizontal push rod 31. Two push-up blocks 4 are provided at the bottom end of the push-up means 3. When the push-up block 4 is moved downward in conjunction with the pressing means 3, the pushing-up block 4 can be moved in the lateral direction in conjunction with the lateral moving means 2. When using, apply pressure downward while grasping the handle 32 with your hand, move the horizontal push rod 31 downward in conjunction with the handle 32, and move the mounting rod 41 in the slider 23 in conjunction with the horizontal push rod 31. Move downward in the guide hole. The slider 23 can guide the movement of the mounting rod 41. Also, pressing means 3
As it moves downward, the vertical repositioning member 42 is compressed. After opening the walnut shell, both hands are released from the handle 32, and the pressing means 3 is restored to its original position by the elasticity of the vertical repositioning member 42. This contributes to continuous work. Both push-up blocks 4 are moved downward in conjunction with the pressing means 3, and the push-up blocks 4 are moved laterally in conjunction with the lateral moving means 2. The connecting member 33 is moved laterally in conjunction with the push-up block 4 via the mounting rod 41. The guide roller 34 is rotated with respect to the horizontal push rod 31 in conjunction with the connecting member 33. As a result, it matches the lateral movement of the push-up block 4. The guide roller 34 can also support the lateral push rod 31. Finally, the downward movement and the lateral movement of the push-up block 4 are reunited to form an oblique downward movement. A diagonally downward force is applied to the top of the walnut.
As shown in FIG. 6, a lower concave groove 11 is provided on the top surface of the bottom seat 1. The piercing tip 111 is uniformly provided on the inner wall of the lower concave groove 11. The tip 111 has a conical shape. The tip 111 breaks through the bottom of the walnut. A lower localization groove 112 is provided at an intermediate position of the lower concave groove 11. An upper concave groove 43 is opened on the bottom surface of the push-up block 4. An upper localization groove 431 is provided at an intermediate position of the upper concave groove 43. Both the lower localization groove 112 and the upper localization groove 431 have a semiring shape. The upper localization groove 431 is formed by combining two localization half grooves. An opening tip 432 is provided in the middle of the upper concave groove 43. When the push-up block 4 is moved laterally, the both opening tips 432 can open the top end of the walnut. The walnuts can be cracked by mutual pressing between the upper concave groove 43 and the lower concave groove 11. When arranging the walnut in the lower concave groove 11, the vertical streaks of the walnut are arranged in the lower localization groove 112. This allows the walnuts to be positioned and avoids rolling. Both the lower localization groove 112 and the upper localization groove 431 complete the positioning of the walnuts. As a result, the opening tip 432 can be inserted between the vertical lines of the walnut. When the two opening tips 432 are inserted between the vertical streaks of the walnut, the top end of the walnut can be opened by the opening tip 432 by moving the push-up block 4 diagonally downward. Further, the upper concave groove 43 gradually presses the walnut in the lower concave groove 11 in conjunction with the push-up block 4. The upper concave groove 43 and the lower concave groove 11 work together to push the walnuts apart. At the same time, the piercing tip 111 in the lower concave groove 11 can penetrate the bottom end of the walnut. By adopting a form in which the walnut shell is opened by opening the top of the walnut and breaking through the bottom of the walnut, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience of crushing the walnut nuts in the past and ensure the integrity of the walnut nuts.

As shown in FIG. 6, an ejecting means is provided at the bottom of the bottom seat 1. The ejecting means is to eject the walnuts that have already been shelled. Ejecting means include an eject plate 113 and an elastic member 114. The elastic member 114 is installed in the bottom insertion groove in the bottom seat 1. Eject board 113
Is installed at the bottom of the indented groove 11. The top end of the elastic member 114 and the bottom end of the eject plate 113 are connected. After opening the walnut shell, the push-up block 4 returns to its original position, and the eject plate 113
Moves upward due to the elasticity of the elastic member 114 and ejects the walnut in the recessed groove 11. Specifically, the elastic member 114 may be an eject spring or another member having an eject force, where the top surface of the eject plate 113 has a spherical structure and the spherical structure matches the spherical surface of the inferior groove 11. This ensures that the tip 111 breaks through the bottom edge of the walnut.

As shown in FIG. 9, a gap is left between the stop slider 50 and the stop sliding groove 51. In the process of pressing the stop slider 50, walnuts of different dimensions and outer shapes can be adapted by slightly adjusting the gap. Also, when pressing to release the walnut, even if the walnut shell is broken, the stop slider 50 can move slightly inward and outward, and the push-up block.
Ensure that the walnuts are cracked by 4.

The above is a preferred embodiment of the invention, and some modifications and improvements may be made on the premise that those skilled in the art do not deviate from the principles of the invention, and these may be within the scope of the invention. Should be treated.
