[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the embodiments of the utility model will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the utility model can be combined with each other arbitrarily without conflict.
[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a dicer, which may include a fixed base 100, an extrusion upper die 300 and a dicer lower die 200.
[0031] The fixed base 100 can be used to support the dicing lower die 200. The dicing lower die 200 is provided with a dicing portion 220, which can cut the small material into dices. The extrusion upper die 300 is provided with a hand-held portion 320 and an extrusion portion 330, and the extrusion upper die 300 is arranged opposite to the dicing lower die 200 and can move relative to the dicing lower die 200.
[0032] During dicing, the operator can press the hand-held portion 320 of the extrusion upper die 300 to move the extrusion upper die 300 so that the extrusion portion 330 squeezes the small material between the extrusion upper die 300 and the dicing lower die 200, so that the small material is cut into dices by the dicing portion 220.
[0033] The dicer provided by the embodiment of the utility model cooperates with the extrusion upper die 300 and the dicer lower die 200 installed on the fixed base 100, so that the operator only needs to put the small material to be diced (such as meat) on the dicer lower die 200, and then press the extrusion upper die 300, and the dicing operation can be realized under the cooperation of the extrusion upper die 300 and the dicer lower die 200, which can improve the standardization of dicing, accurately control the size and particle size of the diced, and improve the efficiency of dicing, and is easy to use, thereby greatly reducing labor costs. In addition, the dicer of the utility model is a manual dicer. Compared with the fully automatic dicer, the dicer structure of this solution is simple in design and low in cost, so that the cost of introducing the machine to the enterprise is lower, reducing the cost of the enterprise.
[0034] Exemplarily, the material of the hand-held portion 320 can be a wooden material or a stainless steel material. Of course, the material of the handle is not limited to the above and can be adjusted as needed.
[0035] In one embodiment of the utility model, a guide post 110 perpendicular to the fixed base 100 may be provided above the fixed base 100. A first guide hole 210 may be provided on the dicing lower die 200, and the first guide hole 210 corresponds to the guide post 110 one by one, and the first guide hole 210 can be slidably mounted on the corresponding guide post 110, so that the dicing lower die 200 can be slidably installed above the fixed base 100. The extrusion upper die is provided with a second guide hole 310, and the second guide hole 310 is configured to be slidably mounted on the guide post 110, so that the extrusion upper die 300 can be slidably installed on the fixed base 100 and can move relative to the dicing lower die 200.
[0036] Before using the dicer of this embodiment to dice, the first guide hole 210 of the dicer lower die 200 can be sleeved on the guide column 110, so that the dicer lower die 200 slides down along the guide column 110 until it is flat on the fixed base 100, and then the second guide hole 310 of the extrusion upper die 300 is sleeved on the guide column 110, so that the extrusion upper die 300 slides down along the guide column 110 and is placed above the dicer lower die 200. The installed shape can be referred to Figure 1 or Figure 2 At this time, the operator can put the small material on the dicing lower die 200 and start the dicing process.
[0037] After use, the extrusion upper die 300 and the dicing lower die 200 can be removed from the guide column 110 in sequence for cleaning, which is helpful to reduce the difficulty of cleaning the dicing lower die 200 and facilitate cleaning.
[0038] In this solution, the dicing lower die 200 and the extrusion upper die 300 share a guide column, which can simplify the structure of the fixed base 100 and the dicing lower die 200, which is conducive to further reducing product costs.
[0039] Of course, the dicing lower die and the extrusion upper die may not share the guide column. For example, the guide column matched with the dicing lower die is arranged on the fixed base, and the guide column matched with the extrusion upper die is arranged on the dicing lower die.
[0040] In an example of this embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the dicing lower die 200 has a first corner, a second corner, a third corner and a fourth corner uniformly arranged along its circumference. There are two first guide holes 210, which are respectively arranged at the first corner and the third corner. There are also two guide posts 110, and the two guide posts 110 correspond to the two first guide holes 210 one by one.
[0041] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the number of guide posts 110 on the fixed base 100 can be two, which are respectively arranged at the diagonal corners of the fixed base 100. At this time, the number of first guide holes 210 on the dicing lower die 200 and the number of second guide holes 310 on the extrusion upper die 300 are the same as the number of guide posts 110, both of which are two. Compared with the guide matching structure of four guide posts and four guide holes, the guide matching structure of two guide posts 110, two first guide holes 210 and two second guide holes 310 in this embodiment can not only meet the guide requirements, but also make it easier for operators to place small materials to be diced on the dicing lower die 200, thereby improving the dicing efficiency.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a fixing pin 120 may be further provided on the fixed base 100, and a fixing hole 270 may be further provided on the dicing lower die 200, and the fixing hole 270 corresponds to the fixing pin 120. The fixing pin 120 is configured to be inserted into the fixing hole 270 after the dicing lower die 200 slides into place, so as to limit the sliding of the dicing lower die 200 relative to the guide column 110, so that the dicing lower die 200 is fixed on the fixed base 100, thereby preventing the dicing lower die 200 from sliding up and down along the guide column 110 to prevent danger.
[0043] Of course, the fixing method between the dicing lower die 200 and the fixing base 100 is not limited to the above, and can also be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0044] In an example of the present embodiment, the fixing pin 120 is configured to be inserted into the fixing hole 270 in a direction perpendicular to the guide column 110. The fixing base 100 may also be provided with an elastic member (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the fixing pin 120 and is configured to use its reset elastic force to move the fixing pin 120 in the direction of inserting into the fixing hole 270, so that the dicing lower die 200 can be fixed on the fixing base 100 when it slides to a preset position. Exemplarily, after the first guide hole 210 of the dicing lower die 200 is inserted into the guide column 110, the fixing pin 120 is pulled horizontally so that the dicing lower die 200 can be lowered along the guide column 110; the fixing pin 120 is released, and the fixing pin 120 is extended into the fixing hole 270 of the dicing lower die 200 under the action of the elastic member, so that the dicing lower die 200 is fixed on the fixing base 100.
[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the dicing part 220 may further include a knife disc 230 provided with blades 240. The number of blades may be multiple, and the multiple blades may be arranged in a crisscross pattern to form multiple cutting grooves 250. Moreover, when the dicing lower die 200 is mounted on the fixed base 100, the blades 240 face upward. After placing the small material to be diced (not shown in the figure) in the working area of the dicing lower die 200 (i.e., above the knife disc 230), the knife disc 230 of the dicing lower die 200 can cut the small material into small pieces of equal size by pressing and squeezing the upper die 300, and the small material falls onto the receiving tray 400 on the fixed lower die (not shown in the figure).
[0046] It should be noted that the blade can also be replaced by a sharp wire rope, etc., as long as the small material can be cut into a certain size, and the utility model does not impose any restriction on this.
[0047] In one example of the present embodiment, the dicer can be equipped with a plurality of different specifications of dicer lower dies 200, and the cross-sectional areas of the cutting grooves 250 of the dicer lower dies 200 of different specifications are different (for example, the cross-sectional area can be changed by changing the spacing between the blades 240) to meet different dice size requirements. For example, in order to optimize the taste and flavor of the small ingredients, different small ingredients need to be cut into small ingredient dices of different sizes. For another example, different straws have different diameters. In order to facilitate the small ingredient dices obtained after dicing to be sucked out of the straw smoothly, different small ingredients need to be cut into small ingredient dices of different sizes. Exemplarily, when the straw diameter is 1.5 cm, the spacing between the blades 240 can be set to be no greater than 1 cm, for example, it can be set to 8 mm, 7.8 mm, etc.
[0048] The dicer in this example is equipped with a plurality of different specifications of dicer lower dies 200, so that different specifications of dicer lower dies 200 can be selected according to different types of small ingredients or beverages to be diced, thereby meeting different dice size requirements, better completing the dicing operation, and ensuring the taste and flavor of different small ingredients after dicing.
[0049] In an example of this embodiment, the cutting groove 250 can be square or circular, which is not limited here. It should be noted that when the shape of the cutting groove 250 is different, different blades 240 need to be customized. When the shape of the cutting groove 250 is square, the cost is relatively low and it can meet most dicing requirements. The square cutting groove can be preferably used.
[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a dicing lower die handle 280 is also provided on the side of the dicing lower die 200, so as to facilitate the operator to take it when replacing the dicing lower die 200, thereby improving the safety factor.
[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, a receiving groove 260 may be provided on the lower dicing die 200. The receiving groove 260 has a certain depression, so as to prevent the small materials to be diced therein from rolling down.
[0052] Furthermore, the blade disc 230 is located at the lower side of the receiving groove 260, and the cutting groove 250 on the blade disc 230 is connected to the receiving groove 260, so as to facilitate dicing of small ingredients.
[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the fixed base 100 may further include a support plate 140 with a hollowed-out middle portion, and the lower dicer 200 is supported on the support plate 140. The dicer may further include a receiving tray 400, which is movably disposed below the fixed base 100 so as to receive small dices leaking from the hollowed-out portion of the support plate 140.
[0054] Exemplarily, the supporting plate 140 may be rectangular, circular, or elliptical, which is not limited herein.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the squeezing part 330 may include a squeezing plate 340 and a squeezing column 350 disposed on the squeezing plate 340, and the squeezing column 350 may correspond to the cut groove 250 one by one. The squeezing part 330 and the hand-held part 320 are connected by a fixed support column, and when the operator holds the hand-held part 320 and presses downward, the squeezing part 330 and the squeezing column 350 installed on the squeezing part 330 may be pushed to move downward.
[0056] In this embodiment, by setting an extrusion column 350 at the bottom of the extrusion upper mold 300, on the one hand, the interference between the extrusion upper mold 300 and the blade 240 of the dicing lower mold 200 can be avoided, and on the other hand, the diced small materials can be pushed into the cutting groove 250 between the cutting knives, and then fall into the receiving tray 400 under the fixed base 100.
[0057] In one embodiment of the utility model, four legs 130 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed base 100, and the four legs 130 are distributed at the four corners of the fixed base 100, so that a receiving tray 400 can be placed under the fixed base 100, so that the diced small materials can directly fall into the receiving tray 400, and the diced small materials can be conveniently used by taking out the receiving tray 400. Of course, it can also be three legs, as long as the support can be guaranteed to be stable.
[0058] In one embodiment of the present invention, the height of the fixed base 100 (i.e., the distance from the bottom of the leg 130 to the top of the guide column 110) is 443 mm, the length is 230 mm, the width is 164 mm, the width of the dicing lower die 200 is 119.8 mm, and the width of the cutting groove 250 is 81 mm. The above parameter settings are parameters set based on experience, which can facilitate operators to complete the dicing operation and meet the dicing needs of most small materials.
[0059] In summary, the utility model provides a manual dicing machine with a simple structural design, which can improve the standardization of the small ingredient dicing process and the dicing production efficiency, and is easy to clean and use. It is suitable for use in catering industry stores, can improve the work efficiency of store personnel, and thus save costs for the store.
[0060] Exemplarily, dicing using the dicing machine provided in the embodiment of the utility model may include the following steps:
[0061] In the first step, the operator may place the fixed base 100 on a workbench (or other tabletop for dicing, etc.).
[0062] In the second step, the first guide holes 210 on both sides of the dicer lower die 200 are aligned with the guide posts 110 on both sides of the fixed base 100 and the lower die 200 is slid in, and it is ensured that the front side of the dicer lower die 200 faces upward (ie, the blade faces upward).
[0063] In the third step, two fixing pins 120 on the fixing base 100 are inserted into the fixing holes 270 on the dicing lower die 200 .
[0064] The fourth step is to place the small materials to be diced horizontally on the dicing lower die 200 .
[0065] In the fifth step, the second guide holes 310 on both sides of the extrusion upper die 300 are inserted into the guide posts 110 on the fixed base 100 and pressed downward with constant pressure to complete the dicing operation.
