DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a device for removing waste from canned raw materials, and more particularly to a canned waste removing device for removing waste from canned materials in a canning factory or the like.

(Prior art) Conventionally, when manufacturing canned mandarin fruit pulp in a canning factory, etc., the fruit particles are sorted into large, medium, and small by a sorting means, and are fed to a net conveyor and flowed.
Workers standing on both sides of the conveyor pick up the waste mixed in with the fruit grains and store it in a waste bin.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Therefore, not only does waste removal require a lot of labor, which increases the cost of the product, but it also has the disadvantage that the fruit grains are contaminated by workers and become unsanitary. It was hot.

The present invention was made in order to eliminate this drawback, and the canned raw material mixed with scraps is supplied to a rotating cylinder, the scraps are dropped from the hole to the scrap discharge guide, the canned raw material is sent to the delivery guide, and the scraps are removed. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device for removing debris from canned raw materials that can be unmanned and produce hygienic canned goods at low cost.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the canned raw material waste removal device of the present invention includes a raw material supply guide that guides the canned raw material sent by a water flow, and a canned raw material inside the canned raw material. A rotating cylinder is provided with a hole smaller than the canned raw material on its circumferential surface so that the scraps of the canned material can fall out, and the upper peripheral surface faces the end of the raw material supply guide. The apparatus is equipped with a waste discharge guide that protrudes to receive the waste that has fallen through the hole and discharges it to the outside of the rotary cylinder, and a raw material delivery guide that receives the canned raw material from which the waste has been removed and sends it out by a water stream.

(Function) In the device for removing scraps of canned raw materials configured as described above, canned raw materials and scraps are supplied to the outside of the rotary cylinder by a water stream, and canned materials are passed through holes smaller than the canned raw materials provided in the rotary cylinder. The raw materials and scraps are separated, and the separated canned raw materials fall from the rotating cylinder, but the impact is softened by water, and the canned raw materials are sent out by the delivery guide without being damaged, while the canned raw materials that have fallen through the holes are Smaller debris is discharged from the debris discharge guide to the outside of the rotary cylinder by the water flow.

(Example) The present invention will be described in detail below based on the example shown in the drawings.

In Figures 1 to 3 of the drawings, reference numeral 1 refers to a raw material supply guide that uses a wide gutter and has an arc-shaped recess 2 in the center of its bottom as shown in Figure 1 of the drawings to feed the raw material to the starting end. It is constructed such that it is inserted into the frame, but is distributed over its entire width and sent out from the end, and is attached to the upper side of the frame 4 by a mounting member 3.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a rotating cylinder, which is made of a net or perforated plate and has holes 6 (the holes 6 are smaller than the canned ingredients) through which waste can pass but not canned materials. The speed reducer motor 10 is supported by the frame 4 by one support shaft 7 and the other support roller 8 so that its peripheral surface faces the end of the supply guide 1, and the rotation of the reducer motor 10 is transferred to the chain wheel 9 fixed to the support shaft 7. The transmission is transmitted through the chain 11 to rotate the rotary cylinder 5 in the direction of flow.

Reference numeral 12 designates a waste discharge guide that receives the waste that has fallen out of the hole 6 and discharges it to the outside of the rotary cylinder 5. A gutter that widens at the top is used, and this gutter is inserted diagonally into the rotary cylinder 5 so that the downstream side is downward. , is fixed to the frame 4 by a mounting member 13.

Reference numeral 14 denotes a delivery guide that receives the canned material from which waste has been removed and sends it out using a water stream.It is installed in the rotating cylinder 5, uses a case with an open top, and is fixed to the frame 4 so that it is not exposed to the water flow. A water supply section 15 is provided on the upstream side to allow water to flow down in the form of a film, and a water pipe 16 is connected to this water supply section 15, and an upwardly sloped surface 17 is provided on the downstream side. The liquid then flows out into the chute 18 and is transferred from the chute 18 to the net conveyor 19.

Therefore, the raw material supply guide 1 in the above-mentioned apparatus
When mandarin orange grains (raw material for canning) mixed with debris are fed together with water, the fruits and debris are dispersed over the entire width by the supply guide 1 and transferred onto the rotating cylinder 5 without overlapping. . At this time, debris smaller than the hole 6 provided in the rotary cylinder 5 falls through the hole 6 into a waste discharge guide 12 installed inside the rotary cylinder 5, and is transferred to a waste receptacle (not shown) by this waste discharge guide 12. Sent.
On the other hand, the fruit particles (canned raw materials) that do not pass through the holes 6 ride on the rotary cylinder 5, move downward due to the rotation of the rotary cylinder 5, and fall to the downstream side of the delivery guide 14. Then,
Water supplied from the water supply section 15 flows inside the delivery guide 14, and the fallen fruit particles are dispersedly flowed out to the chute 18, and from the chute 18 to the net conveyor 19.
In order to transfer the fruit to the net conveyor 19, only fruit grains that are free of debris are sent out.

In addition, in this device, the size of the hole 6 of the rotary cylinder 5 that is removed from the fruit grains is selected to be 16 mm, 18 mm, or 20 mm square, depending on the size of the fruit grain. , it is possible to remove missing fruit grains, i.e., broken pieces, and if the holes are selected to be 12 mm or 14 mm,
It can remove streaks and other small foreign objects.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention is configured as described above, it produces effects as described below.

The canned waste removal device of the present invention includes a raw material supply guide that guides the canned raw material sent by a water flow, a hole smaller than the canned raw material on the circumferential surface so that the canned raw material can fall out, and a hole that is smaller than the canned raw material so that the canned raw material can fall out. A rotary cylinder with an upper peripheral surface facing the end of the supply guide, and a rotary cylinder provided inside the rotary cylinder, with a part protruding outside the rotary cylinder, receiving debris that has fallen through the hole, and discharging it outside the rotary cylinder. It is equipped with a waste discharge guide that allows the canned material to be removed, and a material delivery guide that receives the canned material from which the waste has been removed and sends it out using a water stream. The canned raw materials are separated from the scraps through the smaller holes, and the separated canned raw materials fall from the rotating cylinder, but the impact is cushioned by water and is sent out by the delivery guide to prevent damage. The waste smaller than the canned material that has fallen out of the hole is discharged from the rotary tube through the waste discharge guide by a water stream, and the canned material is automatically separated from the canned material without the need for human intervention while preventing damage to the canned material. It is possible to separate waste that is smaller than the raw material.

In particular, this device has a hole in the rotary cylinder, so debris can be removed conveniently using the hollow part, and
Changes in the size of debris can be quickly responded to by replacing rotating tubes with different hole diameters, making it possible to economically and hygienically remove debris from mandarin orange fruit grains that are difficult to remove due to a large amount of debris mixed in. It has a unique effect on obtaining high-quality canned food.

It goes without saying that this device can be widely used for removing waste not only from mandarin oranges but also from other fruits.
