SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the above conventional one,
It is good to peel one or several radish in a general household.For example, when peeling a large amount of radish in a pickle factory, there is a problem that a lot of labor and labor are required in the process. there were.

An object of the present invention is to provide a radish peeler capable of automatically peeling radish regardless of its thickness or shape.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a radish peeling machine according to the present invention is provided with a pair of opposed blades and is arranged in a required number in a row at regular intervals in the front-rear direction. A peeling part, and a pair of facing carrier grippers, which are arranged on the rear side of each peeling part and on the front side of the front part of the peeling part, and which hold the radish and feed it between the blades. The peeling portion includes a ring-shaped frame body, a pair of leaf springs that are attached to the inner surface of the frame body at a certain forward angle with a tilt, and both drive mechanisms are provided. The blades are attached to the frame body via a leaf spring so as to face each other, and the mounting position of each peeled portion is offset by a fixed angle in the frame body. A large number of coil springs form a cylinder in the direction orthogonal to the radish conveyance direction. It is made provided such.

[0006]

The stripping machine for radish according to the present invention is constructed such that, regardless of the thickness and shape of the radish, a large number of coil springs are arranged in a line so as to form a cylinder, and the springs of the coil springs are arranged between them. It is clamped against the force, and is reliably fed between the opposing blades in front as the two carrier clamps rotate.
At this time, the skin of the radish is peeled over the entire length in the length direction. Then, when the radish passes through the peeling portions in which the mounting positions of the pair of blades are deviated by a fixed angle in the frame, the radish is finally peeled automatically on the entire circumferential surface.

Since the carrier holding body has a cylindrical shape in which a large number of coil springs are arranged so as to form a cylinder, even if the radish is bent, the radish always moves while swinging from the tip thereof along the bend of the radish. Therefore, radish having various curved shapes can be transported. Further, since the coil spring of the carrier holding body is covered with the flexible tube, chips and dust of radish do not get stuck in the coil spring.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In this specification, the front means the forward side of the radish and the rear means the opposite.

The illustrated peeler has a pair of opposed blades (1).
The peeling parts (2) are arranged in a row at eight positions at regular intervals in the front-rear direction, and the peeling parts (2) are arranged on the rear side of each peeling part (2) and on the front side of the peeling part at the front end. ) And feeds it to the blade (1), and a pair of opposing carrier holders (3a) (3b) and this carrier carrier.
(3a) and (3b) are provided with a drive mechanism (4) for rotating them in opposite directions.

The peeling portion (2) is a ring-shaped frame body (2a), a pair of leaf springs (5) mounted on the inner surface of the frame body (2a) with a forward inclination at a certain angle, and both leaf springs. Frame (2a) through (5)
Mounted facing each other and the mounting position is different for each peeling part.
Blades (1) offset by a fixed angle in the frame (2a) for each (2)
Consists of. In this embodiment, the opposing blades as shown in FIG.
Since the mounting positions (a) to (h) of (1) are shifted by 22.5 degrees and 8 pairs are provided, the radish that passes these
In the case of (A), the blade (1) finally comes into contact with the entire outer peripheral surface, that is, within a range of 360 degrees. The upper and lower positions of the radish (A) are held by the carrier holders (3a) (3b) and sent forward,
If the skin of this part is peeled off first, the radish will slip due to the moisture inside the carrier and the carriers (3a) and (3b). For this reason, the blade (1) is attached at the peeling position (a) above and below the radish at the front peeling part.
Even if the radish (A) has a curved shape as shown in Fig. 6, the tip is always bladed by the leaf spring (5) that also functions as a guide.
(1) Introduced between and peeled off, intermediate carrying carrier (3a)
Front peeling parts provided at regular intervals via (3b)
Sequentially sent to (2).

As shown in FIG. 4, each of the above-mentioned carrier holders (3a) and (3b) is rotatably supported by upper and lower support frames (14a) and (14b) via bearings (19). (11) and discs (1
8) and a large number of coils provided on the side peripheral surface of the disk (18) so as to form a cylinder in the direction orthogonal to the conveying direction of the radish (A) and covered by the flexible cylinder (6). It consists of a spring (7). The flexible tube (6) is made of a rubber tube, has an appropriate degree of flexibility, holds the radish (A) firmly and securely, and prevents the coil spring (7) from getting wet with water from the radish. To do. Further, a sponge tube or a synthetic resin tube may be used as the flexible tube (6). The use of a sponge tube is preferable because it absorbs water from the radish and prevents the radish from slipping.

The blade (1) is pivotally fixed to the tip of a bifurcated member (8a) bolted to the tip of the leaf spring (5) so that it can rotate a certain amount, and the shape of the blade has many contact surfaces with the radish. Therefore, it has an arc shape. Also, as seen in FIG. 3, leaf springs
The tongue piece (8b) is fixed to the inner surface of the bifurcated member (8a) along with the bifurcated member (8a) at the tip of (5), and is shaped to be bent toward the blade (1). The tongue piece (8b) prevents the tip of the conveyed radish (A) from entering between the blade (1) and the bifurcated member (8a) and reliably guides it to the blade (1). is there.

The drive mechanism (4) includes a motor (10) mounted on the rear end of the upper frame (9a), and upper and lower transport holding bodies (3a) (3).
Between the chain wheels (12) (12a) (12b) and tension wheel (12c) attached to one end of the central shaft (11) of b) and one end of the motor (10), and between each adjacent chain wheel. Endless chain (13) (13a)
It consists of (13b).

The motor (10) is driven by the upper support frame (1
4a) is transmitted via the endless chain (13) to the upper and lower carrier carriers (3a) (3b), in which case the endless chain (13) is the upper carrier carrier (3a) (3b). Are laid on the radish (A) in the feed direction (forward) so as to rotate in opposite directions. The tension wheel (12c) gives a moderate amount of tension to the endless chain (13). When the upper and lower transport holding bodies (3a) (3b) at the rearmost end are driven by the motor (10), the adjacent front and rear transport holding bodies are also hung on the chain wheels (12a) (12b). Are interlocked via the endless chains (13a) (13b). Also,
Endless chain (13b) of each lower carrier (3b)
Is hung on the other side of the upper one, but it may be on the same side.

At the rear end position of the peeling machine of this embodiment, that is, at the supply side of the radish (A), there is an insertion part (15), and the leg (15)
The board (15b) is supported horizontally by (a), and a pair of elastic plates (16) whose base ends are screwed to both side plates (15c) of the board (15b) and which are inclined inward. The substrate (15b) is attached at a slightly lowered position so that the center of the radish (A) to be inserted is located just between the carrier holding bodies (3a) and (3b) facing each other. When the radish (A) is inserted into the insertion portion (15), the elastic plate (16) reliably guides the radish between the carrying holders (3a) (3b) regardless of the curved shape. The radish is always inserted from the beginning, and the bent one is inserted so that the bend is horizontal. This is because if the radish is put in a state in which the bend is vertical, it becomes difficult to hold the horizontal carrying / holding bodies (3a) and (3b). The two pairs of carrier holders on the rear end side are provided close to each other, and the insertion portion (15)
Be sure to convey the radish from the to the peeling part (2).

A chute (17) inclined downward is provided at the front end position of the peeling machine.

EFFECT OF THE INVENTION According to the peeling machine of the present invention, the radish is reliably clamped by the spring force of the coil spring between a pair of opposed carrying and holding bodies, and the space between the opposing blades of the adjacent peeling parts. The radish is peeled off by being transported to. Then, the pair of blades sequentially pass through a required number of peeling portions provided at different positions, so that the entire surface of the radish can be peeled automatically. Therefore, it is possible to mechanically peel the radish, which has conventionally been forced to be manually performed, and the work efficiency can be dramatically improved when a large amount of radish is peeled, such as in a pickle factory.

The carrier holder has a large number of coil springs arranged so as to form a cylinder. Even if the radish is bent,
Since the radish always moves from its tip end along the bend of the radish, the radish of various bent shapes can be conveyed. Further, since the coil spring of the carrier holding body is covered with the flexible tube, it is hygienic since the pieces of the object to be cut, such as chips and dust, do not get stuck in the coil spring.
