Scope and Content

(AI) This hand-cranked device is a benchtop corn sheller (or hand corn sheller) Mechanism: The internal rotating cylinder features staggered metal teeth arranged in a spiral pattern designed to grab a dried ear of corn fed through the top hopper, stripping the kernels off the cob as the crank turns. Operation: Whole dried ears are dropped vertically into the top opening, the crank turns the spiked drum against the internal stationary teeth, and the loose kernels drop out the bottom while the clean cob is ejected.
