Description

The utility model relates to the field of processing agricultural products and can be used for washing and grinding root crops.

A combined device for washing and grinding root crops is known (Patent RU No. 205076, publ. 06/25/2021 Bull. No. 18), including a hollow body with a hopper, diametrically on the horizontal axis of symmetry of the body at an angle α to the vertical axis of symmetry of the body there are nozzles, slots are made in the lower part of the body, a feed screw is installed in the cavity of the body, each turn of the helicoid of the feed screw is formed by two sickle-shaped knives, which are metal plates with cutting edges made on the end arcuate working face and along the outer periphery, a grinding body made in the form of a knife , an unloading window covered by a deck, the device is mounted on a frame consisting of four supports, between which a pallet is fixed, the bottom of which is made with slopes to the drain pipe.

The disadvantage of this device is not enough high quality washing of root crops.

The purpose of the utility model is to improve the quality of washing root crops.

This goal is achieved by the fact that the sickle-shaped knives in the section of the screw under the nozzles are perforated.

In FIG. 1 is a front view of a combined device for washing and grinding root crops.

In FIG. 2 shows section A-A in FIG. 1.

In FIG. 3 shows a right side view of a combined device for washing and chopping root crops.

In FIG. 4 shows a bottom view of the hollow body in the washing area.

The combined device for washing and grinding root crops contains a hollow body 1 with a loading funnel 2. Diametrically on the horizontal axis of symmetry of the body 1 at an angle α to the vertical axis of symmetry of the body 1 there are nozzles 3. Slots 4 are made in the lower part of the body 1. The feed screw 5 is installed in cavity of the housing 1, each turn of the helicoid of the feed screw is formed by two sickle-shaped knives 6, which are metal plates with cutting edges 7, made on the end arcuate working edge and along the outer periphery. The sickle-shaped knives 6 in the section of the screw 5 under the nozzles 3 are perforated. The grinding body 8 is made in the form of a knife. The unloading window is covered with a deck 9. The deck 9 is made in the form of a round separating plate with through holes of different sizes. The drive of the feed screw 5 and the grinding body, made in the form of a knife 8, is carried out by means of a gearbox 10. The device is mounted on a frame 11, consisting of four supports, between which a pallet 12 is fixed, the bottom of which is made with slopes to the drain pipe 13.

Combined device for washing and grinding root crops works as follows.

Root crops, coming from the hopper 2 into the hollow body 1, moving by the feed screw 5, are subjected to intensive treatment with water supplied at a pressure of 6 ... 8 bar by nozzles 3 connected to a pump, which, in turn, is connected to the central water supply network.

Simultaneously with the washing, the root crops fall under the action of two sickle-shaped knives 6 located on the 5 supply auger.

The process of destruction can be represented as the work of a wedge for crushing and breaking off.

In general, the process of separating the first part of the root crop from the main one can be represented as follows:

- at the first moment, the tip of both knives 6 "enter" the body of the root crop to a certain depth and experience the action of forces, while each tip of the sickle-shaped knife 6 is different:

- one of the sickle-shaped knives 6 will act as a whole as an instant center of rotation (support point), and the other will squeeze the smaller part of the root crop from the large one, while simultaneously rotating the root crop around the said center; at the next moment, the same sickle-shaped knife 6 will move into the partially turned root crop and go even deeper until the end of the destruction process;

- as a result of the separation of a part of the root crop from the main mass, the remaining part will change its position relative to the sickle-shaped knife 6 (due to rotation) and fall under the action of the following knives 6 after half a turn, and so on until it acquires dimensions comparable to the dimensions of the screw channel.

Further, the material goes outside through the unloading window and, if necessary, can be additionally crushed with a knife 8, while the degree of grinding is regulated by a deck 9 with a corresponding through sector or the number of blades of a knife 8.

The presence of perforation on sickle-shaped knives will improve the quality of washing.
