Silkworm cocoon cutting machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a silkworm cocoon cutting machine. The silkworm cocoon cutting machine comprises a feeding device and a conveying belt located below the feeding device. The advancing direction of the conveying belt is obliquely upward. Two baffles which are spaced from each other and used for making the length directions of silkworm cocoons consistent with the length direction of the conveying belt are arranged on the conveying belt along the upper surface of the conveying belt. The length of each baffle is smaller than or equal to the length of the conveying belt. The distance between each baffle and the upper surface of the conveying belt is smaller than the diameter of each silkworm cocoon. A clamping mechanism which can clamp the two sides of each silkworm cocoon in the width direction of the conveying belt is arranged at the end, facing upwards, of the conveying belt. The clamping mechanism is located in the length direction of the baffles and is close to the ends of the baffles. A cutting mechanism used for cutting the silkworm cocoons in the vertical direction is arranged on the side, away from the baffles, of the clamping mechanism. The silkworm cocoon cutting machine has the advantages that the structure is simple, automatic cutting of the silkworm cocoons can be achieved, the working efficiency is improved, and the labor intensity of workers is relieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of sericulture production machinery, in particular to a silkworm cocoon cutting machine. Background technique [0002] my country's cocoon and silk production scale ranks first in the world, with an annual output of about 500,000 tons of silkworm cocoons and more than 70,000 tons of raw silk, accounting for about 80% and 60% of the world's total production, and silk production accounts for about 45% of the world's total output. Silk is a continuous long fiber that is solidified by the silk liquid secreted by cooked silkworms when they cocoon, also known as natural silk. One of the earliest fibers used by human beings, it is also a traditional advantageous industry in my country. Silk fiber is mainly composed of 65-75% silk fibroin, 20-30% sericin, and some other ingredients. The main source of silk is cocoons. When producing silkworm cocoons, it is necessary to separate the silkworm chrysalis from the silkworm shell...
