ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for stripping onions, in which an onion is withdrawn into a cylindrical onion guide path by vacuum pressure produced as compressed air is discharged at a high speed from a nozzle and is discharged from the cylindrical path into a separating chamber facing the path due to the momentum of the onion, whereby the onion is stripped as it is struck by compressed air discharged from the nozzle. The cylindrical onion guide path has a diameter large enough to permit passage of one onion, and onions are supplied one after another at a predetermined interval. The separating chamber is a cylindrical path coaxial with the onion guide path. The lines of discharge of the compressed air intersect one another on the center line of the onion guide path. Beyond the separating chamber, there is provided a direction converter for converting the axial direction of progress of the stripped onion into a lateral direction. The peelings separated from the stripped onion are led through the direction converter and are discharged through a separate route.
