ABSTRACT:
The machine possesses a bed (101) on which is provided a central shaft or turret (105), having an intermittent rotary motion, on the periphery of which are provided six operating positions, two feed operating positions A, diametrally opposite, with which are associated respective hoppers (113) equipped with means for individual entrainment for the fruit (107), means being provided at each of these feed operating positions for the translatory movement of the fruit towards a clamp associated with the centra rotary shaft (105), which clamp entrains the fruit to a second operating position B, where the fruit is peeled by means of two sets of knives (156), each set of knives being actuated by an electric motor (164), and the fruit then passing into a third and final operating position C, within each group, at which the operation of cutting the residual polar caps resulting from the prior cutting operation is completed, specifically with the participation of two large horizontal discoidal knives (175) capable of pivoting horizontally under the actuation of corresponding hydraulic cylinders (180), and which, in the course of the planetary movement, rotate on their own axes to facilitate the cutting.
