  • Rotary Machine for Separation of a Hard Plant Component from a Connected Soft Matter Component
    Publication number: 20140020571
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a system configured for separating a nut or other hard component from soft matter connected to the hard component. The system includes first and second rotary modules. The first rotary module includes a cylindrical first chamber defined by an inner surface and a first rotary assembly within the first chamber. The second rotary module is in communication with the first rotary module such that the first rotary module feeds the hard component and the pulp into the second rotary module. The second rotary module includes a cylindrical screen defining a cylindrical second chamber and a second rotary assembly disposed within the second chamber. The system may further include an infeed assembly for feeding the material into the first rotary module, and/or a discharge portion for discharging the hard component through an exit port after separation by the second rotary module.
