2. Description of the Related Art An edamame shaving device that mechanically rips edamame from an edamame stalk, conveys the edamame stalk while pulling the edamame stalk in a hanging state by gripping the root side of the edamame stalk with a conveyor, and rotating the edamame stalk in a pair of left and right. There is a model in which edamame is stripped from the edamame stalk by sandwiching it between mold strips and rotating the strips.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the edamame moistening device provided with this rotary type mower removing plate, when the edamame stem is long,
If the radius of the mopping plate is small, the green soybeans cannot be surely picked up over the entire length, so it is necessary to increase the pulling amount of the conveyor. In addition, if a plurality of pairs of mopping plates are provided above and below, the amount of pulling up of the conveyor can be reduced, but in this case, since multiple pairs of mopping plates act on edamame stems at the same time, the gripping force of the conveyor is reduced. It needs to be large enough.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of such conventional problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide an edamame mopping device capable of reliably edamazing the edamame of the edamame stem while reducing the pulling amount and the gripping force of the conveyor.

[0005]

As a concrete means therefor, the present invention grasps the root side of the soybean stalk A so as to obtain the soybean stalk A.
Conveyor that conveys while hanging upward while pulling up
6 and a pair of left and right stripping plates for stripping the green soybeans by sandwiching the green soybean stem A transported by the transport conveyor 6 from both left and right sides.
In the edamame mopping device equipped with 16 and 17, a plurality of pairs of left and right mopping plates 16 and 17 are provided above and below, and a pair of left and right mopping plates 16 and 17 of each group are in phase and each mopping plate is in each group. Each of these mopping plates is so that the phases of 16 and 17 are different.
The drive mechanism 21,23,29,37 for reciprocally swinging 16,17 about the horizontal axis 18,19 is provided.

[0006]

Function: The root side of the soybean stalk A is grasped by the transfer conveyor 6 and the edamame stalk A is conveyed while being pulled down. And
Put the edamame stem A in this hanging state into a pair of left and right stripping boards 1
It is sandwiched between 6 and 17, and the edible soybeans are stripped off while swinging the stripping plates 16 and 17 back and forth around the horizontal axes 18 and 19.

Since there are a plurality of pairs of the stripping plates 16 and 17 on the upper and lower sides, even when the edamame stem A is long, the edamame can be stripped over its entire length while reducing the pulling amount of the conveyor 6. Further, since the upper and lower stripping plates 16 and 17 reciprocally swing in different phases, they do not act on the soybean stem A at the same time in spite of a plurality of sets, and therefore the gripping force of the conveyor 6 is small. it can.

The wind selecting device 39 includes a blower fan 43 inside a fan casing 42, and the blower fan 43 is driven by a drive motor 44. A chute 45 is provided between the second conveyor 40 and the rocking / sorting device 41 to feed the green soybeans onto the rocking / sorting device 41, and an extension of the second conveyor 40 for discharging branches, leaves and the like. A conveyor 46 is provided. Reference numeral 47 is a supply port guide plate, and 48 is an extraction guide for extracting the soybean stalk A from the stripping plates 16 and 17, and is fixed on the apparatus main body 1. 49 is a cover.

The left and right interlocking mechanism 21, 23, the up and down interlocking mechanism
The drive mechanism is composed of 37 and the crank mechanism 29.
In the above configuration, when the root side of the soybean stalk A hangs downward, the root side of the edamame stalk A is inserted between the pair of left and right conveyor belts 7 at the start end side of the conveyor 6, so that the edamame stalk A is gripped from the left and right sides. In the hanging state, it is conveyed laterally (in the direction of arrow a) from the supply port 4 into the stripping casing 2. At this time, since the conveyor 6 is inclined, the edamame stem A is conveyed while being pulled up along the inclination.

The soybean stalk A is a casing for stripping even when drooping.
As it passes through the inside of 2, it enters between the pair of left and right first and second stripping plates 16 and 17 that swing up and down about the horizontal shafts 18 and 19, so these first and second stripping plates 16 and 17 It is pinched from the left and right. When the first and second stripping plates 16 and 17 swing downward, the soybeans are stripped from the soybean stem A downward together with the branches and leaves.

In this case, the pair of left and right first stripping plates 16 are driven through the crank mechanism 29 and the first left-right interlocking mechanism 21 to reciprocate up and down around the horizontal shaft 18 in the same phase, and then swing downward. Occasionally, the green soybeans of edamame stem A are stripped off. When the gear 24 of the first left-right interlocking mechanism 21 reciprocally rotates about the horizontal shaft 18, power is transmitted to the gear 25 of the second left-right interlocking mechanism 23 via the rod 36 of the up-down interlocking mechanism 37. Gear 25
The pair of left and right second stripping plates 17 reciprocally swing up and down around the horizontal axis 19 in a phase relationship opposite to that of the first stripping plate 16 via. Then, when the second stripping plate 17 swings downward, strips of edamame etc. are stripped from the edamame stem A.

As described above, the first and second stripping plates 1 are vertically arranged.
If 6,17 are provided, the edamame stalk A can be reliably stripped even when the edamame stalk A is long, in combination with the conveyor 6 pulling up and carrying the edamame stalk A.
The amount of edamame stem A pulled up by 6 can be reduced. Also, since the upper and lower first and second stripping plates 16 and 17 reciprocally swing up and down due to the relationship of opposite phases, the first and second stripping plates 16 and 17 alternate vertically even though there are two sets above and below. It will act on the edamame stem A. Therefore, since the stripping force acting on the soybean stem A downward becomes small, the gripping force of the transport conveyor 6 on the soybean stem A can be made small.

The stripping plates 16 and 17 reciprocally swing in the upper region from the substantially horizontal state. Therefore, even when each of the stripping plates 16 and 17 swings upward, the edamame stem A is not pushed up, and even if some pushing force is exerted, the stripping plates 16 and 16 above and below are removed. The 17 swings in the opposite direction, so there is no particular problem. When the soybean stem A reaches the vicinity of the end, the withdrawal guide 48 acts on the midway part of the soybean stem A, so that the soybean stem A is suddenly pulled upward from between the left and right pair of stripping plates 16 and 17 and discharged.

The green soybeans and the like removed from the edamame stem A are
After being sent by the conveyor 38 and subjected to the wind selecting action of the wind selecting device 39, the soybeans are sent to the swing selecting device 41 via the second conveyor 40 and the chute 45, and the branches / leaves are discharged to the outside by the discharging conveyor 46. It is discharged. The left and right interlocking mechanisms 21, 23 may be composed of links or the like, and the first and second stripping plates 1
If 6 and 17 reciprocally swing in opposite phases, both may be driven from the transmission shaft 31 via a crank mechanism.
