Abstract
A fruit peeling machine comprises a base, a transmission rod, an engagement device, a fruit fastening member, and a peeling tool. The transmission rod is rotatably and slidably mounted on the base and provided with at least two spiral slots different from each other in guide range and forming on the transmission rod a meeting place and a separating place which is separated from the meeting place by a distance. The fruit fastening member is fastened with the front end of the transmission rod. The peeling tool is mounted on the base to facilitate the peeling of the fruit held by the fruit fastening member. The engagement device is mounted on the base and composed of at least two engaging members each having two engaging teeth engageable with the spiral slots to enable said transmission rod to displace variously in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the transmission rod at the time when the transmission rod is rotated.
