Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial Application Field" This invention relates to a shellfish steaming and sorting machine that ranges from steaming bivalves to sorting the flesh and shells.

``Conventional technology'' Conventionally, shellfish steaming conveyor equipment
No. 16646) was developed, making continuous steaming of shellfish possible, and then a bivalve meat and shell sorter (Jikko Sho 56-
No. 48145) was developed, and the meat and shell can be automatically and continuously separated. However, the technology to automatically and continuously separate the shells and shells of steamed bivalves and to automatically and continuously remove the sand inside the separated shells had not been developed, so it was not possible to automatically and continuously separate the steamed clams from a large amount of raw clams. It was not possible to set up a production line.

``Problems to be solved by the invention'' This invention aims to create a plant that removes shells and sand from a large amount of raw shellfish material and continuously and automatically collects only the shellfish.

``Means for solving the problem'' This proposal includes a shellfish steaming conveyor device installed in the machine frame, a raw shellfish supply device installed at the start end of the conveyor device, and a forced stirring sieve for shellfish and shells installed at the end end. A shell continuous water sorting device is connected to the stirring sieve machine, an overflow gutter is connected to the sorting device, a drainage screen is installed at the end of the gutter, and a water drain screen is installed at the end of the gutter, and It consists of a shellfish steaming and sorting device with a sand settling hopper on the bottom and a sand discharge valve on the hopper.

"Operation" Therefore, when raw bivalves are continuously fed into the raw material input port 14 of the shellfish steaming conveyor device 2, as the conveyor moves, the raw bivalves emit steam while moving from the starting end to the ending end. The shells are steamed and turned into steamed shellfish, which is discharged from the outlet and enters the forced stirring sieve 4. The steamed shellfish entering the sieve machine 4 is crushed by the stirring operation, and the shell and the shell are separated and reduced in size, so that the shellfish is sieved and continuously descends to the bottom of the sieve. This undersieve consists of the flesh and shell that are separated from each other, and the next shell enters the shell continuous water sorting device 5, where the flesh floats, the shell settles, the shell is continuously discharged, and the floated flesh is water. At the same time, the sand flows into the overflow gutter 6, and while moving within the gutter 6, the sand inside the body is discharged into the water. The discharged sand moves along the bottom surface 8 of the gutter 6 and sinks and accumulates in the sand settling hopper 9, and the sand discharge valve 10 is opened to discharge it downward. The meat is then drained of water by a draining screen 7 at the end of the gutter 6 and taken out as a product.

“Example” A shellfish steaming conveyor device 2 is installed in a machine frame 1 provided on a floor surface 11. This conveyor device 2 has a tubular chamber 2' that slopes upward from the starting end toward the terminal end, and an internal wire mesh conveyor 12 or screw conveyor 12' is disposed in the tubular chamber 2'. A steam jet pipe 13 is arranged to steam raw shellfish that is moved within the same chamber 2' by a conveyor 12'. Input hopper 1 provided at the starting end of this device 2
The terminal end of a belt conveyor 15 is arranged directly above the raw shellfish supply hopper 1 through a reciprocating sliding feeder 16 above the starting end of the belt conveyor 15.
7 is provided to form a raw shellfish feeding device 3 for continuously feeding raw shellfish to the steaming conveyor device 2. Immediately below the steamed shellfish discharge port 2'' formed at the terminal end of this conveyor device 2, as shown in FIGS. As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the sieve machine 4 has a hood 2 on the outer periphery of a reciprocating sliding sieve 19 designed to have a stroke of 10 cm and a number of reciprocating slides of 180 times per minute.
0 is provided, and several vertical plates 21 are provided in the hood 20 that are perpendicular to the sliding direction, and the steamed shellfish is stirred on the sieve 19 and inside the hood 20 by reciprocating sliding motion, thereby removing the meat. The shell is separated, and the separated and reduced body and shell pass through the same sieve 19. In Fig. 1, most of the small pieces of meat are under the sieve, and the shells on the sieve are discharged by the conveyors 22 and 23, and the pieces and shells below the sieve enter the water gutter 24, where the meat and shells are continuous. It is connected to the upper part of the water tank 5' of the water sorting device 5, and in FIG. This water tank 5' is equipped with a shell discharge conveyor 25 consisting of a submerged part and a part sloping above the water surface. Unloading conveyor 25
The shell floats to the surface and the shell sinks, and the shell is carried out of the machine from the conveyor 25, and the floated shell enters the overflow gutter 6 with the overflow water and moves toward the end of the gutter 6. do. A plurality of sand settling hoppers 9, 9 are provided on the bottom surface 8 in the middle of the overflow gutter 6, and a sand discharge valve 10 is provided at the outlet of the hoppers 9, 9. Note that 26 in the figure is the rotary stirring blade of the water sorting device, 27 in Figure 2 is the vibrator,
In FIG. 7, 28 is a crank device, and 29 is a crank rod.

``Effects'' Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it is possible to automatically and continuously steam raw bivalve molluscs, separate the meat and shells, and remove the sand separated from the meat without requiring any labor. The efficiency of collecting shellfish meat can be improved.
