we offer Punch Cum Splitter.
Punch Cum Splitter is a machine designed for easy consumption of the tender coconut.
It has a container at the base which has two compartments, one to store tender coconuts and the other with bag holding hooks for storing consumed tender coconuts.
On the top of the container the punching and splitting mechanism is placed.The punching mechanism contains a stainless steel pipe with a profile at the end to pierce the tender coconut. To reduce the friction between tube inner and pierced tender coconut cork, tube entry diameter is reduced to some distance. The piercing tube is moved up and down using a manually operated lever.
The punching mechanism has a locking device to hold the tender coconut when pulling the piercing tube from the tender coconut. The locking device has one fixed base and two sliding parts. The 19mm OD stainless steel tube was fixed in the inner slider which was guided through two fixed plastic guides. One cross pin with self lubricated plastic cap was welded with the inner slider. Two numbers of 32×6 flats with slots connected to the extended lever is pivoted in the fixed column and the inner slider is moved up and down through the slots. The middle fixed base was fixed to the unit through two bolts, which is also used to fix the plastic guides. The fixed base has a lengthy slot in both sides with many square teeth, for locking purpose. The outer slider was freely sliding in the fixed base and has locking mechanism in both sides. A plastic guide with spring loaded was fixed in both sides of outer slider with a plastic cap. The plastic guide is used to hold the outer slider either with inner slider or fixed base. When the inner slider reaches the top of outer slider, the plastic guide will move out from the square teeth and freely moved with the inner slider. If the outer slider touches the tender coconut, the down movement of inner slider will release the plastic guide and the outer slider will be locked with the fixed base. After piercing the tender coconut, till the inner slider touches the top of the outer slider, the outer slider will lock the tender coconut and after that it will be lifted along with the inner slider. Depending upon the size of the tender coconut, the outer slider will be locked to the near by square teeth in the fixed base.
Tubular adjuster is provided at the base to the center of the punching pipe to accommodate the various sizes of tender coconut.
The splitting is done using a Stainless Steel Blade fitted with extended lever. The base of the splitting blade is placed at certain angle, to transfer the cutting load to the center of the frame. A stopper is provided perpendicular to the base frame to place the tender coconut in a balanced position. Two 25x6mm flats and semi circular rods are fixed on both the sides of the base frame to improve the tender coconut seating and for cutting the scoop.
One tray is provided at bottom of the top unit to collect the water spilling out of the tender coconut.
