CALYX REMOVING DEVICE FOR FRESH RED PEPPER AND SYSTEM THEREOF, AND CALYX REMOVING METHOD USING THE SYSTEM

摘要

An apparatus and a system for removing the stem of raw red pepper, and a stem removal method of raw red pepper using the apparatus are provided to efficiently separate the stem of raw red pepper by using the transfer speed difference between the stem and body of raw red pepper. A system for removing the stem of raw red pepper comprises: a raw red pepper supply apparatus(100) which supplies raw red pepper; a raw red pepper pressing apparatus(300) which presses the stem of the supplied raw red pepper to lessen the coherence between the stem and body; and an apparatus(400) for removing the stem of raw red pepper, which separates the stem and body and sorts out the stem. The apparatus for removing the stem of raw red pepper comprises: a compulsory feeding part into which raw red pepper is compulsorily fed; plural couples of separation rolls which separate the stem of raw red pepper and have gaps for passing the fed raw red pepper; at least one couple of sorting rolls which are arranged at a distance from the plural couples of separation rolls; and a driving device which drives the compulsory feeding part, separation rolls, and sorting rolls. The raw red pepper is transferred by the plural couples of separation rolls. The rotative velocity of each couple of separation rolls gradually increases along the transfer direction, and the rotative velocity of the couple of sorting rolls is lower than that of the last couple of separation rolls.
