Justification of the parameters of parts of a walnut cracking machine

Abstract

The article describes the design of the working drum in a nut grinding machine and its design. Depending on the size of the nut and as a result of the experiments, the structure and dimensions of the parts of the nut grinder are determined and the basic procedure for preparing the parts in accordance with the structure is expressed. The rotation speed of the drum was determined taking into account the weight of the nut and centrifugal force. The speed with which the nut enters the device is calculated depending on the speed of rotation of the drum. The determination of this speed allows the machine to work normally, and at the same time increases its efficiency.

Sorghum as a substitute for corn in poultry feed

“…One of the features of sorghum is C4 photosynthesis which is also characteristic of corn. This mechanism increases the efficiency of photosynthetic processes in the plant even under conditions of drought and elevated temperatures [6,7].…”

Design and evaluation of pneumatic impact‐twisting combined walnut fixed posture shell‐breaking mechanism

“…Both domestic and international scholars have conducted extensive research on walnut shell‐breaking methods (Ding et al, 2017; Wang et al, 2022; Zhang et al, 2018). Most research outcomes are concentrated on traditional single‐shell methods or their improvements, overlooking the study of combining various shelling methods (Barakaev et al, 2021; Cao et al, 2017). Currently, whether in the analysis of walnut shelling mechanisms (Kermani et al, 2023), method selection, or the design of shelling mechanisms, the loading forms on walnuts are predominantly single‐loading forms such as squeezing, tapping, and rolling pressure (Bao et al, 2022).…”
