Abstract:
Improved methods and apparatus for dry hulling or dry peeling harvested crops, particularly pistachio nuts, are disclosed. The methods and apparatus of the present invention provide crop harvesting with great efficiency resulting in consistently high percentages of hulled or peeled crops and low percentages of nut breakage, without increasing processing times regardless of the sizes of the crops being hulled or peeled. The methods and apparatus of the present invention also provide for a relatively small overall machine footprint, plus easy and efficient removal and replacement of the impingement drum to accommodate for different drum speeds, different crop sizes, different bolt patterns, different bolt sizes, and other variations allowing embodiments of the invention to be used on a wide range of nuts and vegetables of different varieties, sizes and shapes.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pulse polishing machine. In one embodiment, the machine includes a base frame having protruded vertical supports at longitudinal ends 5 and a rotor assembly placed between the vertical supports through a drive shaft. Rotor assembly having plurality of rotary disks mounted at the ends and centre of the drive shaft and a circular cam assembly fixed on the rotary disks. Further, a sheet basket assembly having plurality of circular shaped segments surrounds the rotor assembly defines the polishing chamber. An inlet means and an outlet means are positioned on the 0 sheet basket assembly at diagonally opposite ends. Segments of split covers are used to cover the polishing chamber from either ends. And the ends of the polishing chamber are covered by a pair of split covers. An electric motor is connected to one end of the drive shaft to impart rotary motion to the rotor assembly for polishing pulses.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rotor (1) für eine Schleifmaschine (2) für die Lebensmittel- und Futtermittelindustrie mit einem Aussendurchmesser zwischen 0,5 und 0,6 m umfassend eine Mehrzahl von im Wesentlichen zylindrischen, insbesondere hohlzylindrischen, Schleifelementen (3) sowie ein solches Schleifelement (3) mit je einer äusseren, im Wesentlichen kreiszylindermantelförmigen Schleiffläche (4), wobei die Schleifelemente (3) übereinander koaxial und derart angeordnet sind, dass zwischen den Schleifflächen (4) zweier benachbarter Schleifelemente (3) ein im Wesentlichen ringförmiger Luftspalt (5) entsteht, wobei ein Verhältnis zwischen einer Hüllfläche (H) des Rotors (1) und einer Gesamtschleiffläche des Rotors (1) grösser als 1,05 und kleiner als 1,25 ist.
Abstract:
A coupling mechanism for an abrasive roll assembly placed inside an apparatus to couple the abrasive roll assembly along its axial centre with the axial centre of the apparatus, the coupling mechanism comprising a locking disk (9) placed along the abrasive roll assembly (2) which is in association with the axial centre of the abrasive roll assembly. A shaft (10) fixed along the axial centre of said locking disk such that said shaft and said locking disk have common centre of axis. A rotating means (8), the outer surface of which is fixed to the body of the apparatus to form the stationary end and the inner surface of which is fixed to the outer surface of a hollow guide and lock means (6) to form the rotatable end such that said hollow guide and lock means is capable of being rotated with respect to said rotating means; and in the inner side of said hollow guide and lock means said shaft can be slide as desired to place said shaft in desired position inside said hollow guide and lock means and to hold it rigid in desired position inside said hollow guide and lock means wherein said locking disk can be moved as desired in accordance with said shaft movement such that said locking disk mates the abrasive roll assembly and holds the abrasive roll assembly intact with respect to the apparatus and that said shaft along with said locking disk can be rotated with respect to said rotating means and that the axis of rotation is along the axial centre of the apparatus and a rotating mechanism for an apparatus to hold and to rotate a shaft the rotating mechanism comprising A hollow sleeve (6) which has threading in its internal surface such that a shaft (10) which has a mating thread on its external surface can be threaded along the axis of the sleeve. A bearing (8) whose inner surface of is fixed to the outer surface the sleeve (6) and the outer surface of the bearing is fixed to the apparatus. A retainer ring is fixed on to the bearing and the sleeve such that the shaft can pass though it and the bearing is intact with the sleeve and the apparatus; and a lock nut (11) which can be threaded on to the shaft from the bottom of the sleeve such that the shaft can be locked at desired position in the sleeve wherein shaft can be rotated with respect to the bearing precisely in its centre of axis and the axis of rotation is the axial centre of the apparatus.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Poliermaschine für Reis oder andere Getreide mit einem mehr als achteckig ausgebildeten Siebkorb (5) und Polierraum. Der Siebkorb (5) weist zwei gebogene Wänden in Form von Halbschalen mit nach innen vorstehenden Rippen (10) auf. Beide Hälften sind vorzugsweise durch Verschraubung und Distanzelemente mit einem geteilten Sieb (2) zu einem stützenden Siebkorb (5) verbunden.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a rubber roller peeler, especially for peeling rice or similar grains. According to the invention, a separate motor (7, 8) is provided for each rubber roller (3, 4) to ensure that the two rubber rollers (3, 4) wear evenly and thereby avoid stop periods for changing rollers.
