Abstract
Description
Dispositif pour équeuter les fleurs de camomille
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour briser les tiges des fleurs de camomille sèches, afin d'obtenir un aspect commercialisable sans détériorer la fleur.Device for removing stems from chamomile flowers
The present invention relates to a device for breaking the stems of dry chamomile flowers, in order to obtain a marketable appearance without damaging the flower.
Traditionnellement les fleurs de camomille étaient cueillies manuellement, d'ou l'absence de tige, mais le cout de revient se révèlait trop élevé. Traditionally, chamomile flowers were picked manually, hence the absence of a stem, but the cost was too high.
Depuis la mécanisation de la cueillette, certaines fleurs de camomille conservent leur tige ; cet aspect les rend difficelement commercialisables dans les établissements qui conditionnent les fleurs de camomille entières sèches. Since the mechanization of picking, some chamomile flowers have kept their stems; this aspect makes them difficult to market in establishments that package whole dry chamomile flowers.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient. Il comporte en effet, selon une première caractéristique, un cylindre, légèrement incliné par rapport à l'horizontale, dont les parois sont perforées de petits trous de diamètre très inférieur aux fleurs de camomille, ce cylindre est guidé en rotation par quatre roues. The device according to the invention overcomes this drawback. According to a first characteristic, it in fact comprises a cylinder, slightly inclined relative to the horizontal, the walls of which are perforated with small holes of diameter much smaller than the flowers of chamomile, this cylinder is guided in rotation by four wheels.
A l'intérieur du cylindre est plaçé un mécanisme comprenant : une bande souple,fixée que d'un coté sur deux barres rigides indépendantes, l'une roulante et l'autre glissante sur la paroi perforée du cylindre en mouvement, ainsi que des contrepoids. Inside the cylinder is placed a mechanism comprising: a flexible band, fixed only on one side on two independent rigid bars, one rolling and the other sliding on the perforated wall of the moving cylinder, as well as counterweights .
Ainsi le cylindre entraine les fleurs avec leur tige , arrivant régulièrement dans le passage formé par la paroi perforée du cylindre et la bande souple. Ce passage étant de plus en plus étroit, la fleur accompagnée de sa tige est 'légèrement pinçée, pour ensuite être prise en friction. Cet effort de frottement suffit à casser la tige, la fleur libérée de sa tige sort et roule au dessus de la bande souple pour retomber devant la barre rigide, la tige est évacuée par les trous du cylindre. Thus the cylinder drives the flowers with their stem, arriving regularly in the passage formed by the perforated wall of the cylinder and the flexible band. This passage being more and more narrow, the flower accompanied by its stem is' slightly pinched, to then be taken in friction. This friction effort is enough to break the stem, the flower released from its stem comes out and rolls above the flexible band to fall in front of the rigid bar, the stem is evacuated through the holes in the cylinder.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un cylindre (1) à parois perforées et incliné par rapport à l'horizontal. With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a cylinder (1) with perforated walls and inclined relative to the horizontal.
A l'intérieur du cylindre en rotation est plaçé un mécanisme qui glisse et qui est contitué : d'une bande souple (2) en contact d'un coté avec le cylindre (1), et de l'autre coté fixée sur deux barres rigides (3) (4) indépendantes plaçées l'une au bout de l'autre. La barre rigide (3) comporte au moins deux galets ou cales (5) dont le but est de créer un espace entre la bande souple et la paroi du cylindre pour assurer l'introduction des fleurs avec tiges.La barre rigide (4) d'une certaine épaisseur vient glisser directement sur les parois perforées du cylindre (1) en retenant les fleurs équeutées roulant vers la sortie par l'inclinaison du cylindre (1). Inside the rotating cylinder is placed a sliding mechanism which is made up of: a flexible strip (2) in contact on one side with the cylinder (1), and on the other side fixed on two bars rigid (3) (4) independent placed one after the other. The rigid bar (3) comprises at least two rollers or shims (5) whose purpose is to create a space between the flexible band and the wall of the cylinder to ensure the introduction of flowers with stems. The rigid bar (4) d 'a certain thickness comes to slide directly on the perforated walls of the cylinder (1) by retaining the stalked flowers rolling towards the exit by the inclination of the cylinder (1).
Sur la bande souple(2) et en appui sur les barres rigides (3) (4) sont fixés au moins deux contrepoids (6) ayant la forte du cylindre (1) montés chacun sur un galet (7), cette partie du dispositif à pour fonction de positionner et de stabiliser l'élément glissant par son poid. On this flexible strip (2) and resting on the rigid bars (3) (4) are fixed at least two counterweights (6) having the force of the cylinder (1) each mounted on a roller (7), this part of the device with the function of positioning and stabilizing the sliding element by its weight.
Une languette souple (8) fixée sur la bande (2) en contact avec la paroi du cylindre assure l'acheminement de toutes les fleurs dans le passage formé par la bande souple !2) et le cylindre (1). A flexible tongue (8) fixed on the strip (2) in contact with the cylinder wall ensures the routing of all the flowers in the passage formed by the flexible strip! 2) and the cylinder (1).
Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 3,des petites bandes (10) de même matière que la bande souple, peuvent être fixées à l'équerre de la bande souple (2) et sous cette dernière. Ces petites bandes (10) font obstacle aux fleurs accompagnées de leur tige et permettent donc de les équeuter. In the embodiment according to FIG. 3, small strips (10) of the same material as the flexible strip can be fixed to the angle of the flexible strip (2) and under the latter. These small bands (10) obstruct the flowers accompanied by their stem and therefore make it possible to stem them.
Cette particularité a pour but de perfectionner l'équeutage.This feature aims to improve tailing.
L'élément glissant situé à l'intérieur du cylindre peut être arrèté en translation par une roulette (9) en appui sur a bout du cylindre (1) du coté surelevé. The sliding element located inside the cylinder can be stopped in translation by a roller (9) resting on the end of the cylinder (1) on the raised side.
