Abstract:
The processing device that integrates scallop cleaning and grading work is designed by analyzing the various stages of scallop processing and combining the development status of domestic and foreign scallop processing machinery. A double-row brush roller cleaning method was employed according to the structural and physiological characteristics of scallop shells, and a double-roller scallop grading device was designed according to the scallop shape and size characteristics, and the cleaning and grad ing work were connected through the food conveyor belt to achieve cleaning and grading simultaneously. The two rows of cleaning brush rollers move at different speeds, the upper row of brush rollers has a speed of 200 r/min, the speed of the brush roller in the bottom row is 120 r/min on both sides, and the speed of the brush roller in the middle is 360 r/min, the cleaning effect is enhanced by working with high-speed airflow. The cleaned scallops are conveyed by the food conveyor belt to the grading part, the spiral roller is used for grading, the speed of the grading roller is 67 r/min. The diameter and inclination can be adjusted to improve the accuracy and reliability of classification. The device integrating scallop cleaning and grading reduces the labor input in the scallop processing, saves the scallop processing time, ensures the freshness of the scallop, and provides reliable processing tools for the scallop processing industry.
