Abstract: |
With a wide range of uses, coconut is an important economic crop in the tropical areas of China. To solve the current problems of low work efficiency and security of manual operation mainly applied to extract coconut meat at home and abroad, a coconut shell and meat separator was designed combined with the requirements of extracting coconut meat in life and production. In design, an electric machine was used to drive the movement of briquetting through the turn screw and fix the coconut removing coir. A round saw blade was used to carry out ring-cutting along the maximum diameter of coconut. Internal globular flesh could be directly collected after operation. Experiments showed that the coconut shell and meat separator ran smoothly and it was easy to operate. The cutting time of each coconut was about 50 s. The cutting efficiency and quality were improved greatly compared with those of manual operation. It laid a foundation for the subsequent deep processing of coconuts. |
