In this study, Aiming at the inefficiency of the manual shelling of Gordon Euryale seed, a new automatic seeding Sheller with simple structure and easy operation was developed to improve the efficiency. According to the shape and size of the Gordon Euryale Seed and the material characteristics of its hard shell, the mechanical structure of the machine were designed. It included the feeding mechanism, shelling device and separating device. Experiments showed that it had met the requirements of rapid shell peeling. The shell peeling rate was over 98% and the whole kernel rate was over 97.5%. It had reliable operation, fast speed and low failure.
