Description

Mussel cleanning and separation device

The present invention relates to a mussel washing and separating apparatus, and more particularly, to a mussel washing apparatus for harvesting a mussel cultured in a farm, thereby cleaning foreign matter on the shell and separating the mussel.

Mussels are rich in taurine, protein, unsaturated fats, various vitamins and minerals, and are used in a variety of foodstuffs.

These mussels are usually produced by aquaculture at shallow depths of the coast. They are grown under long-term seawater conditions and should be cleaned of various foreign substances (mussels, beards, mussels, other parasites, etc.) For commercial purposes, the mussels are pre-washed, packaged and sold.

In order to wash the mussels, Japanese Patent Application No. 10-1211483 (a device for removing and washing the mussel's beard) provided a device for removing the mussel's whisker and washing it with wash water.

This conventional technique includes a conveyor belt for conveying a mussel in a state where various foreign substances including a whisker attached to the shell are not removed; A main body having a mussel insertion portion into which the mussel transferred to the end of the conveyor belt is inserted at an upper end, a mussel discharge portion formed at an end of the mussel extending obliquely downward to prevent the mussel from being separated by side walls; And a roller drive means for rotating the roller in a direction in which the roller is engaged with the adjacent roller, wherein the roller driving means comprises: a roller which is formed in close contact with a mussel discharge port of the main body in a lateral direction; A rod-shaped swinging bar having a plurality of resilient restoring forces for inverting or reversing a mussel descending along the roller, on a bottom surface of the cover, a cover for reciprocating up and down by a swinging device is formed on the upper surface of the main body, And a water jetting device formed on the upper surface of the cover and having a plurality of nozzles for spraying water toward the rollers.

Therefore, the beard of the mussel is caught between the rollers, the beard is separated from the mussel by the pulling force by the rotational force of the roller, and the falling beard is washed by the water sprayed by the water injector.

However, the conventional technique is effective for merely removing the whiskers, but it is not enough to remove the foreign substances firmly fixed to the shell.

In other words, the whiskers are simply removed by the roller, but the water sprayed simply does not remove the foreign matter from the shell.

In addition, there is a disadvantage in that the mussels can not be separated from each other by the mussels during the aquaculture process.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a mussel washing and separating device for separating foreign matter from rubbed mussels while transferring the mussel in water, There is a purpose.

To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a mussels washing and separating apparatus comprising:

A body part formed as a horizontally placed cylindrical body and having an inlet for receiving a mussel into an upper part thereof;

A separator which is formed in a cylindrical body and is rotatably connected to one end of the other end of the body part;

A conveying screw installed in the transverse direction of the body part in the transverse direction but only to a position corresponding to the body part, the conveying screw for conveying the mussels injected by the externally applied power and washing and separating them by friction;

A washing water supply pipe for supplying washing water to the inside of the body part;

And is rotatable on the rotary shaft of the conveying screw on the inner side between the body part and the sorting part and is fixed on the inner side of the sorting part and rotated together with the sorting part, And a blocking plate for preventing water from flowing out or leaking out toward the screening net.

In accordance with the present invention, the mussels are transported by the transfer screw from inside the body containing water, and the mussels are washed by friction, thereby effectively removing the foreign substances fixed to the shell. In addition, There is an advantage in that it is separated.
