Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of potato slicing, in particular to a potato slice slicing machine with adjustable thickness for potato chip processing. Background Art

[0002] In the field of potato chip processing, potato slicing is a key link in determining product quality. The uniformity of slice thickness, edge integrity and equipment operation stability directly affect the efficiency of subsequent frying, seasoning and other processes and the quality of the finished product.

[0003] Although the potato slicers currently on the market have achieved basic thickness adjustment functions, they still have the following deficiencies in actual production: On the one hand, the blades of existing slicers are mostly static fixed structures. When cutting thicker potato slices, the blades need to withstand greater shear resistance and extrusion reaction forces. If the support strength is insufficient, the blades may be overloaded and cause chipping and breakage. When cutting thinner potato slices, the required cutting force is smaller, but if the blades are in a "rigid" state due to excessive support, the blades may be easily affected by slight vibrations of the equipment, resulting in rough edges, burrs or uneven thickness of the slices.

[0004] On the other hand, during potato slicing, the starch on the potato surface reacts with water to form a paste that easily adheres to the outer wall of the blade. As the slicing process continues, an uneven starch film gradually forms. The localized accumulation of the starch film causes the actual cutting distance to become larger or irregular, resulting in significant variations in slice thickness. At the same time, the stickiness of the starch paste causes the blade to drag on the edge of the potato chip during cutting, affecting the smoothness of the cut and causing appearance defects such as stringing and protrusions. If the starch paste accumulates for a long time, it is easy to form hard protrusions, which can also cause the cutting method to change from cutting to squeezing, exacerbating the fragmentation of the potato slices and significantly reducing the yield rate of potato chips. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a potato chip slicer with adjustable thickness to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0015] Preferably, the other ends of the two rotating shafts are fixedly connected to a first gear plate, and the circumferential outer wall of the circular tube portion is fixedly connected to a gear fan, and the gear fan cooperates with the first gear plate.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The present invention provides a potato slicer with adjustable thickness for potato chip processing. When a worker needs to slice potatoes into thin slices, the first screw is rotated to drive the driving gear to rotate. When the driving gear rotates, the annular rack meshed with the driving gear can be driven to rotate together. At this time, the annular rack will make a circular motion together. The circular motion of the annular rack can drive multiple groups of driven gears to rotate together, thereby realizing synchronous adjustment of multiple groups of blades and avoiding uneven thickness in the subsequent slicing process. When the driven gear is rotated by the annular rack, the sleeve can be driven to rotate. The sleeve is fixedly connected to the first rotating tube, so that the first rotating tube can be driven to rotate clockwise during the rotation of the sleeve. The blade is arranged outside the first rotating tube, so that the rotation of the first rotating tube drives the blade to rotate together, so that the angle between the blade and the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder becomes smaller, thereby ensuring that the thickness of the potato chips cut subsequently meets people's processing needs. In the process of slicing thin potato chips, the swing plate cooperates with the second spring to provide the blade with more flexible buffering ability. The elastic deformation of the spring can absorb vibration energy and avoid the blade from causing rough incisions due to rigid impact. At the same time, the second baffle in the first rotating tube limits the rotating rod to prevent the swing amplitude from being too large and affecting the slicing accuracy. It not only ensures the buffering requirements of the blade during thin slicing, but also maintains the cutting stability through the moderate elastic force of the spring, effectively solving the problem of edge defects in thin slices.

[0017] The present invention provides a potato slice slicer with adjustable thickness for potato chip processing. When a worker needs to process thicker potato chips, the worker rotates the first screw in the opposite direction. At this time, a series of transmissions are used to increase the angle between the blade and the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder. At the same time, the first rotating tube located inside the fixed seat will rotate counterclockwise. When the first rotating tube rotates counterclockwise, the swing plate fixed on the outer wall of the rotating rod will gradually approach the end of the limit bending column. As the swing plate gradually approaches the end of the bending column, the deformation range of the second spring will be further reduced. At this time, the compression amount of the second spring is reduced, and its elastic support for the swing plate is strengthened. The supporting force is enhanced and then transmitted to the blade through the rotating rod, which significantly improves the supporting strength of the blade. Since the blade needs to withstand greater shear force and extrusion reaction force when cutting thicker potato chips, the enhanced supporting force can effectively resist these forces, avoiding problems such as chipping and breakage of the blade due to excessive force. At the same time, the end of the limiting bent column forms a rigid limit on the swing plate, further limiting the swing amplitude of the blade, ensuring that it maintains a stable cutting trajectory during the cutting process of thick slices, reducing uneven slice thickness caused by blade offset, thereby ensuring the cutting accuracy and integrity of thicker potato chips and improving the yield of thick slice processing.

[0018] The present invention provides a potato slice slicer with adjustable thickness for potato chip processing. Through the provided dirt removal component, when the potato chip slicing work is completed, the staff starts the electric push rod, which can drive the fixed rod to move in the direction close to the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder. At this time, the fixed rod can drive the fixed frame to move horizontally together until the cleaning roller on one side of the rotating frame is pressed against the outer wall of the blade. Then the staff starts the motor again to make it rotate in the opposite direction, which can drive the blade to rotate in the opposite direction, effectively avoiding the blade from damaging the surface of the cleaning roller. At this time, the starch layer adhering to the surface of the blade can be scraped off by the cleaning roller, avoiding the starch layer from accumulating on the cutting edge of the blade and affecting the quality of the potato chips after production. During the process, the first spring can press it against the outer wall of the blade, ensuring that the cleaning roller and the blade surface always maintain a close and appropriate contact pressure, avoiding incomplete cleaning due to insufficient contact. At the same time, when the centrifugal drum rotates in the opposite direction, the tooth fan on the outer wall of the circular tube part of the fixed seat and the first gear plate on the rotating shaft of the rotating frame engage with each other, thereby driving the cleaning roller to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of the cleaning roller, the spiral material guide groove on its circumferential outer wall can not only increase the friction with the outer wall of the blade, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the starch layer on the blade surface, but also can scrape off the starch debris and paste adhering to the blade surface and guide them for discharge, effectively avoiding secondary contamination during the cleaning roller cleaning the blade.

[0019] The present invention provides a potato slice slicer with adjustable thickness for potato chip processing. Through the provided fixed seat, when the cleaning roller cleans the blade surface, the cleaning roller will first contact the triangular part in the fixed seat, and the triangular part can slowly compress the cleaning roller. Then, the cleaning roller gradually approaches the blade under the guidance of the triangular part. When the cleaning roller moves to the end of the circular tube part (that is, the junction of the circular tube part and the blade), the first spring in the deep compression state will be released immediately, so that the cleaning roller is pressed against the outer wall of the blade for subsequent cleaning work. In this process, since there is a certain distance between the fixed seat and the blade, when the cleaning roller is transferred from the end of the fixed seat to the outer wall of the blade, both the blade and the cleaning roller will vibrate, which can effectively shake off the starch debris remaining on the surface of the cleaning roller and in the guide trough, and at the same time, the stubborn starch layer attached to the blade surface is loosened due to vibration, which is convenient for the subsequent scraping operation of the cleaning roller.

The motor 10 is fixedly connected to the inner circumferential wall of the outer ring cylinder 1 through a fixing frame 13, and the output end of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the bottom plate 11. The outer circumferential wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8 is provided with discharge grooves 36 distributed in a circular shape with equal distances, and one side of the discharge groove 36 is provided with a The blade 33 for slicing potatoes, the staff adds the potatoes to be sliced ​​into the lower hopper 2 and starts the motor 10 at the same time, which can drive the centrifugal drum 8 to rotate. During the rotation of the centrifugal drum 8, the potatoes added to the drum can be thrown toward the inner wall. At this time, under the continuous action of centrifugal force, the potatoes will be in close contact with the blade 33 on one side of the discharge groove 36 on the inner wall of the centrifugal drum 8. The potatoes are sliced ​​under the rotation of the centrifugal drum 8, thereby realizing the rapid and automatic slicing of potatoes; The interior of the centrifugal cylinder 8 is provided with a rotating assembly for adjusting the deflection angle of the blade 33; The interior of the centrifugal cylinder 8 is also provided with a decontamination component for cleaning the surface of the blade 33; A top ring frame 14 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8 , and a driving assembly for providing a power source for the rotating assembly is provided inside the top ring frame 14 .

[0037] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a sleeve 43 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the top of the bottom plate 11. The number of the sleeves 43 is two, one end of each of the two sleeves 43 is fixedly connected to the first rotating tube 37, and the inner walls on both sides of the first rotating tube 37 are rotatably connected to the rotating rod 42. The top of the other sleeve 43 is fixedly connected to the driven gear 35, and the top outer wall of the driven gear 35 is fixedly connected to the second rotating tube 38. The circumferential inner wall of the top ring frame 14 is fixedly connected to the fixed ear seat 39. The second rotating tube 38 is rotatably connected to the fixed ear seat 39, and the rotating rod 42 extends to the outside of the first rotating tube 37. Both ends are fixedly connected to the blade 33, and the circumferential outer walls of the two sleeves 43 are provided with openings that facilitate the stable rotation of the blade 33. The driving assembly includes an annular rack 17 arranged inside the top ring frame 14. The circumferential inner wall of the annular rack 17 is engaged with the driven gear 35. The interior of the top ring frame 14 is fixedly connected with a limit plate 18 for ensuring the stable rotation of the annular rack 17. The circumferential outer wall of the annular rack 17 is provided with a tooth groove 40. The circumferential outer wall of the annular rack 17 is engaged with the driving gear 15 through the tooth groove 40. The top outer wall of the driving gear 15 is fixedly connected to the first screw 16, the first screw 16 is fixedly connected to the first screw 16. A screw 16 extends from one end of the driving gear 15 to the outside of the top ring frame 14. The first screw 16 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the top ring frame 14 by a fixing nut. When the staff needs to slice the potatoes, the driving gear 15 is driven to rotate by rotating the first screw 16. When the driving gear 15 rotates, it can drive the annular rack 17 meshing with it to rotate together. At this time, the annular rack 17 will make a circular motion together. The circular motion of the annular rack 17 can drive multiple groups of driven gears 35 to rotate together, thereby realizing the synchronous adjustment of multiple groups of blades 33. , to avoid uneven thickness in the subsequent slicing process, when the driven gear 35 is driven by the annular rack 17 and rotates, the sleeve 43 can be driven to rotate, and the sleeve 43 is fixedly connected to the first rotating tube 37. Therefore, during the rotation of the sleeve 43, the first rotating tube 37 can be driven to rotate clockwise. At the same time, the blade 33 is arranged on the outside of the first rotating tube 37, so that the rotation of the first rotating tube 37 drives the blade 33 to rotate together, so that the angle between the blade 33 and the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8 becomes smaller, thereby ensuring that the thickness of the potato chips cut subsequently meets people's processing requirements.

[0038] Furthermore, the top outer wall of the annular rack 17 is fixedly connected with an arc plate 30, which is slidably arranged inside the top ring frame 14. The top outer wall of the arc plate 30 is fixedly connected with a second screw 32. The top outer wall of the top ring frame 14 is provided with through grooves 31 that are equidistant and circularly distributed. The second screw 32 is rollingly connected to the through grooves 31. The second screw 32 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the top ring frame 14 by fixing bolts. The position of the annular rack 17 is rigidly fixed by bolt tightening, thereby preventing the annular rack 17 from accidentally rotating due to equipment vibration during slicing, thereby avoiding the angle deviation of the blade 33 and ensuring the consistency of the slice thickness.

[0039] Furthermore, the circumferential inner wall of the outer ring cylinder 1 is provided with equidistant circular assembly grooves 5, the interior of the assembly grooves 5 is clamped with an insert rod 4, the bottom end of the insert rod 4 is fixedly connected to the lower hopper 2, the lower hopper 2 is funnel-shaped, and the bottom end of the lower hopper 2 is located inside the centrifugal cylinder 8. One side of the two insert rods 4 is fixedly connected with a cross bar 6, and the cross bar 6 is located directly above the centrifugal cylinder 8. The top outer wall of the outer ring cylinder 1 is fixedly connected with a mounting ring plate 3. The circumferential inner wall of the outer ring cylinder 1 is provided with equidistant circular assembly grooves 5, which cooperate with the clamping structure of the insert rod 4 to achieve rapid disassembly and positioning of the lower hopper 2, which is convenient The staff can replace the lower hopper 2 of different specifications according to the size of potatoes or processing requirements to improve the adaptability of the equipment. The tight connection between the insertion rod 4 and the assembly groove 5 can ensure that the lower hopper 2 remains stable when the centrifugal cylinder 8 rotates at high speed, avoiding the feed position deviation due to vibration, and ensuring the accuracy of raw material feeding. At the same time, the lower hopper 2 is designed to be funnel-shaped, and its bottom end is deep into the interior of the centrifugal cylinder 8, which can guide the potatoes to slide along the cylinder wall, reduce splashing and accumulation when the raw materials are put in, and make the potatoes enter the centrifugal area more evenly, and cooperate with the centrifugal force to quickly throw them to the cylinder wall and contact the blade 33, thereby improving the slicing efficiency.

[0040] Furthermore, a swing plate 41 is fixedly connected to the circumferential outer wall of the rotating rod 42, and a second baffle 46 for limiting the rotation of the rotating rod 42 is fixedly connected to the circumferential inner wall of the first rotating tube 37. The circumferential inner wall of the first rotating tube 37 is also fixedly connected to the first baffle 45. The outer wall of one side of the first baffle 45 is fixedly connected to the second spring 47 distributed at equal distances. The end of the second spring 47 away from the first baffle 45 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the swing plate 41. The circumferential inner wall of the circular tube portion 3401 is fixedly connected to the limiting bent column 44 distributed at equal distances. The limiting bent column 44 includes a horizontal column and an arc column. An arc-shaped hole 48 is opened on the outer wall of one side of the first baffle 45 for the arc column to pass through. When the first rotating tube 37 rotates counterclockwise, the swing plate 41 fixed on the circumferential outer wall of the rotating rod 42 will gradually approach the end of the limiting bent column 44. As the swing plate 41 gradually approaches the end of the bent column, the deformation range of the second spring 47 will be further reduced. At this time, the compression of the second spring 47 will decrease, and its elastic supporting force on the swing plate 41 will be enhanced, which will be transmitted to the blade 33 through the rotating rod 42, so that the supporting strength of the blade 33 is significantly improved. Since the blade 33 needs to withstand greater shear force and extrusion reaction force when cutting thicker potato chips, the enhanced supporting force can effectively resist these forces, avoiding the blade 33 from chipping or breaking due to excessive force. At the same time, the end of the limiting bent column 44 forms a rigid limit on the swing plate 41, further limiting the swing amplitude of the blade 33, ensuring that it maintains a stable cutting trajectory during the cutting process of thick slices, reducing the uneven thickness of the slices caused by the offset of the blade 33, thereby ensuring the cutting accuracy and integrity of thicker potato chips and improving the yield of thick slice processing.

[0041] Furthermore, the decontamination assembly includes a vertical plate 9 fixedly connected to the circumferential outer wall of the lower hopper 2, one side outer wall of the vertical plate 9 is fixedly connected to an electric push rod 7, the output end of the electric push rod 7 is fixedly connected to a fixed rod 12, one side outer wall of the fixed rod 12 is fixedly connected to a support column 28, the other end of the support column 28 is fixedly connected to a fixed frame 25, one side of the fixed frame 25 is provided with a rotating frame 20, one side outer wall of the rotating frame 20 is fixedly connected to a first spring 27 distributed at equal distances, the other end of the first spring 27 is fixedly connected to an inner wall of one side of the fixed frame 25, both side outer walls of the rotating frame 20 are fixedly connected to a sliding rod 24, both side outer walls of the fixed frame 25 are provided with a slide groove 26, the sliding rod 24 is slidably connected to the fixed frame 25, both side inner walls of the rotating frame 20 are rotating shafts, one end of the two rotating shafts are fixedly connected to a cleaning roller 22 for cleaning the surface of the blade 33, the circumferential outer wall of the cleaning roller 22 is provided with a material guide groove 23, and the material guide groove 23 is spirally distributed on the cleaning roller 2 2, when the slicing work of the potato chips is completed, the staff starts the electric push rod 7, which can drive the fixed rod 12 to move in the direction close to the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8. At this time, the fixed rod 12 can drive the fixed frame 25 to move horizontally together until the cleaning roller 22 on one side of the rotating frame 20 is pressed against the outer wall of the blade 33. Then the staff starts the motor 10 again to make it rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the blade 33 to rotate in the opposite direction, effectively avoiding the blade 33 from damaging the surface of the cleaning roller 22. At this time, the starch layer adhering to the surface of the blade 33 can be scraped off by the cleaning roller 22 to avoid the starch layer accumulating on the cutting edge of the blade 33 and affecting the quality of the potato chips after output. In the process of cleaning the blade 33, the cleaning roller 22 can be pressed against the outer wall of the blade 33 by the first spring 27, ensuring that the cleaning roller 22 and the surface of the blade 33 always maintain a close and appropriate contact pressure, avoiding the situation where incomplete cleaning occurs due to insufficient contact.

[0042] Furthermore, the other ends of the two rotating shafts are fixedly connected to the first gear plate 21, and the circumferential outer wall of the circular tube portion 3401 is fixedly connected to the gear fan 19, which cooperates with the first gear plate 21. When the centrifugal drum 8 rotates in the opposite direction, the gear fan 19 on the outer wall of the circular tube portion 3401 of the fixed seat 34 engages with the first gear plate 21 on the rotating shaft of the rotating frame 20, thereby driving the cleaning roller 22 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of the cleaning roller 22, the spiral material guide groove 23 on its circumferential outer wall can not only increase the friction with the outer wall of the blade 33, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the starch layer on the surface of the blade 33, but also can scrape off the starch debris and paste adhered to the surface of the blade 33 and guide them for discharge, effectively avoiding secondary contamination during the cleaning roller 22 cleaning the blade 33.

[0043] Furthermore, the inner circumferential wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8 is fixedly connected with a fixing seat 34, and the first rotating tube 37 is rotatably connected to the fixing seat 34. The fixing seat 34 includes a circular tube portion 3401 and a triangular portion 3402. The circular tube portion 3401 has the same center as the first rotating tube 37. In the process of the cleaning roller 22 cleaning the surface of the blade 33, the cleaning roller 22 will first contact the triangular portion 3402 in the fixing seat 34. The triangular portion 3402 can slowly compress the cleaning roller 22. Then, the cleaning roller 22 gradually approaches the blade 33 under the guidance of the triangular portion 3402. When the cleaning roller 22 moves to the end of the circular tube portion 3401 ( The cleaning roller 22 is pressed against the outer wall of the blade 33 to perform subsequent cleaning work. In this process, since there is a certain distance between the fixing seat 34 and the blade 33, when the cleaning roller 22 is transferred from the end of the fixing seat 34 to the outer wall of the blade 33, both the blade 33 and the cleaning roller 22 will vibrate, which can effectively shake off the starch debris remaining on the surface of the cleaning roller 22 and the guide trough 23, and at the same time, the stubborn starch layer attached to the surface of the blade 33 is loosened due to vibration, which is convenient for the subsequent scraping operation of the cleaning roller 22.

[0044] In summary, with the aid of the above technical solution of the present invention, when in use, the staff adds the potatoes to be sliced ​​into the lower hopper 2 and starts the motor 10 at the same time. The motor 10 can drive the centrifugal drum 8 to rotate. During the rotation of the centrifugal drum 8, the potatoes added to the drum can be thrown toward the inner wall. At this time, under the continuous action of centrifugal force, the potatoes will be in close contact with the blade 33 on one side of the discharge groove 36 on the inner wall of the circumference of the centrifugal drum 8. The potatoes are sliced ​​under the rotation of the centrifugal drum 8, thereby realizing the rapid and automatic slicing of potatoes. When the staff needs to slice the potatoes, they drive the driving gear 15 to rotate by rotating the first screw 16. When the driving gear 15 rotates, it can drive the annular rack 17 meshing with it to rotate together. At this time, the annular rack 17 will make a circular motion together. The circular motion of the annular rack 17 can drive multiple groups of driven gears 35 to rotate together, thereby realizing synchronous adjustment of multiple groups of blades 33 and avoiding uneven thickness in the subsequent slicing process. When the driven gear 35 is rotated by the transmission of the annular rack 17, it can drive the sleeve 43 to rotate, and the sleeve 43 is fixedly connected to the first rotating tube 37. Therefore, during the rotation of the sleeve 43, the first rotating tube 37 can be driven to rotate clockwise, and the blade 33 is set on the first rotating tube The outer portion of 37 is driven by the rotation of the first rotating tube 37 to rotate the blade 33 together, so that the angle between the blade 33 and the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8 becomes smaller, thereby ensuring that the thickness of the potato chips cut subsequently meets people's processing requirements. In the process of slicing thin potato chips, the swing plate 41 cooperates with the second spring 47 to provide the blade 33 with a more flexible buffering capacity. The elastic deformation of the spring can absorb vibration energy, thereby preventing the blade 33 from causing a rough cut due to rigid impact. At the same time, the second baffle 46 in the first rotating tube 37 limits the rotating rod 42, preventing the swing amplitude from being too large and affecting the slicing accuracy. It not only ensures the buffering requirement of the blade 33 during thin slicing, but also maintains the cutting stability through the moderate elastic force of the spring, effectively solving the problem of edge defects easily occurring in thin slices. When the staff needs to process thicker potato chips, the staff rotates the first screw 16 in the opposite direction. At this time, a series of transmissions are used to increase the angle between the blade 33 and the inner wall of the centrifugal cylinder 8. At the same time, the first rotating tube 37 located inside the fixed seat 34 will rotate counterclockwise. When the first rotating tube 37 rotates counterclockwise, the swing plate 41 fixed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 42 will gradually approach the end of the limiting bent column 44. As the swing plate 41 gradually approaches the end of the bent column, the deformation range of the second spring 47 will be further reduced. At this time, the compression amount of the second spring 47 is reduced, and its elastic supporting force on the swing plate 41 is enhanced, thereby The dynamic rod 42 transmits the force to the blade 33, which significantly improves the support strength of the blade 33. Since the blade 33 needs to withstand greater shearing force and extrusion reaction force when cutting thick potato chips, the enhanced support force can effectively resist these forces, avoiding the blade 33 from chipping or breaking due to excessive force. At the same time, the end of the limiting bent column 44 forms a rigid limit on the swing plate 41, further limiting the swing amplitude of the blade 33, ensuring that it maintains a stable cutting trajectory during the cutting process of thick slices, reducing the uneven thickness of the slices caused by the deviation of the blade 33, thereby ensuring the cutting accuracy and integrity of thick potato chips and improving the yield rate of thick slice processing; When the slicing of potato chips is completed, the staff starts the electric push rod 7, which can drive the fixed rod 12 to move toward the inner wall of the centrifugal drum 8. At this time, the fixed rod 12 can drive the fixed frame 25 to move horizontally until the cleaning roller 22 on one side of the rotating frame 20 is pressed against the outer wall of the blade 33. Then the staff starts the motor 10 again to make it rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the blade 33 to rotate in the opposite direction, effectively avoiding the blade 33 from damaging the surface of the cleaning roller 22. At this time, the starch layer adhering to the surface of the blade 33 can be scraped off by the cleaning roller 22 to avoid the starch layer accumulating on the blade 33 and affecting the quality of the potato chips after production. In the process of cleaning the blade 33, the cleaning roller 22 can be pressed against the blade by the first spring 27. The outer wall of the blade 33 ensures that the cleaning roller 22 always maintains a close and appropriate contact pressure with the surface of the blade 33, avoiding the situation of incomplete cleaning due to insufficient contact. At the same time, when the centrifugal drum 8 rotates in the opposite direction, the toothed fan 19 on the outer wall of the circular tube portion 3401 of the fixed seat 34 engages with the first gear plate 21 on the rotating shaft of the rotating frame 20, thereby driving the cleaning roller 22 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of the cleaning roller 22, the spiral guide groove 23 on its circumferential outer wall can not only increase the friction with the outer wall of the blade 33, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the starch layer on the surface of the blade 33, but also can scrape off the starch debris and paste adhering to the surface of the blade 33 and guide them for discharge, effectively avoiding the situation of secondary contamination during the cleaning process of the cleaning roller 22 cleaning the blade 33; When the cleaning roller 22 cleans the surface of the blade 33, the cleaning roller 22 will first contact the triangular portion 3402 in the fixing seat 34, and the triangular portion 3402 can slowly compress the cleaning roller 22. Then, the cleaning roller 22 gradually approaches the blade 33 under the guidance of the triangular portion 3402. When the cleaning roller 22 moves to the end of the circular tube portion 3401 (i.e., the junction of the circular tube portion 3401 and the blade 33), the first spring 27 in the deep compression state will be released immediately, so that the cleaning roller 22 can be cleaned by the triangular portion 3402. The roller 22 is pressed against the outer wall of the blade 33 for subsequent cleaning work, and in this process, since there is a certain distance between the fixed seat 34 and the blade 33, when the cleaning roller 22 is transferred from the end of the fixed seat 34 to the outer wall of the blade 33, the blade 33 and the cleaning roller 22 will vibrate, which can effectively shake off the starch debris remaining on the surface of the cleaning roller 22 and the guide trough 23, and at the same time cause the stubborn starch layer attached to the surface of the blade 33 to loosen due to vibration, which is convenient for the subsequent scraping operation of the cleaning roller 22.
