[0030] An embodiment of the present invention provides a shrimp processing device. For details, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the structure of a shrimp processing device in one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 The figure shows a schematic plan view of a power mechanism in one embodiment of the present invention, wherein the shrimp processing device comprises a frame 1 (only a partial structure of the frame is shown in the figure), a power mechanism 2, a belt transmission mechanism 3 and a paddle mechanism 4;

[0031] The power mechanism 2 is arranged on the side of the frame 1, and the power mechanism 2 includes a power input sprocket 21, a driving sprocket 22, a passive sprocket 23, a connecting rod 24 and a chain 25; the power input sprocket 21 is connected to an external power motor through a first rotating shaft; one end of the connecting rod 24 is arranged on the surface of the power input sprocket 21, and the other end of the connecting rod 24 is arranged at a corresponding position on the surface of the driving sprocket 22, so as to make the driving sprocket 22 reciprocate under the drive of the connecting rod 24; the driving sprocket 22 is connected to the passive sprocket 23 through the chain 25;

[0032] The belt transmission mechanism 3 is arranged at the bottom of the frame 1;

[0033] The paddle mechanism 4 is disposed at the top of the frame 1 and close to the top of the belt transmission mechanism 3. The paddle mechanism 4 includes a plurality of rotating shafts 41 and paddles 42;

[0034] One end of each rotating shaft 41 is provided with a mutually meshing synchronous gear 411, and the other end of each rotating shaft 41 is provided with a guide bearing 412, and the passive sprocket 23 is connected to a corresponding guide bearing 412, so that two adjacent rotating shafts 41 can rotate relative to each other under the drive of the passive sprocket 23;

[0035] Each of the rotating shafts 41 is provided with a plurality of the paddles 42 of the same number, and the paddles 42 on two adjacent rotating shafts 41 are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0036] It should be noted that, in the shrimp processing device provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the belt conveyor mechanism is connected to the feed guide plate of the upper level, and is used to receive and convey the shrimp bodies with residual shrimp shells and shrimp legs. Above the belt conveyor mechanism, a paddle mechanism is provided along the conveying direction of the plane conveyor belt. The paddle mechanism is used to realize the function of cleaning the residual shrimp shells and shrimp legs, and the power mechanism is used to provide power. Through the connecting rod and the chain as the medium, the two adjacent rotating shafts in the paddle mechanism are driven to make relative reciprocating motion in a mechanical transmission manner. By continuously shifting left and right, the residual shrimp shells and shrimp legs can be properly removed without manual intervention. Of course, in order to achieve relative reciprocating motion of two adjacent rotating shafts, the size and diameter of the power input sprocket, the driving sprocket and the driven sprocket must all be in accordance with the preset, and correspondingly, the length and connection position of the connecting rod also need to be set separately in advance (when the distance between the connection point of the connecting rod on the power input sprocket and the center of the power input sprocket is less than the distance between the connection point of the connecting rod on the driving sprocket and the center of the driving sprocket, the driving sprocket will reciprocate, but the rotation angle is less than 180°; when the diameter of the driving sprocket is greater than the diameter of the driven sprocket, the rotation angle of the driven sprocket will be greater than the rotation angle of the driving sprocket, so that the angle of the rotating shaft can reach 180° Or more than 180°), different connecting rod lengths will cause differences in the final rotation angle of the rotating shaft. For example, the power input sprocket is continuously rotated by the external power motor, and driven by the connecting rod, the active sprocket makes a 180° reciprocating left and right rotation motion, and then driven by the chain, the passive sprocket rotates accordingly (changing the tooth ratio of the active sprocket and the passive sprocket can change the left and right rotation angle of the passive sprocket), thereby driving a rotating shaft connected to the passive sprocket to make an intermittent 180° left and right rotation motion, and the movement of all rotating shafts is realized by synchronous gears, and the rotation directions of two adjacent rotating shafts are opposite at the same time.

[0037] For the paddle, it is preferably a physical structure with three paddle plates (such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, the shape of the paddle plate is determined by the physical structure of the shrimp to be processed and the specific processing requirements. A sawtooth shape or the like may also be provided at the bottom of the paddle plate. In this embodiment, the paddle plate is preferably rectangular. Of course, the height of the paddle plate cannot exceed the distance to the flat belt, otherwise the paddle cannot achieve normal rotation. Preferably, a certain number of paddles are evenly spaced on each rotating shaft, and the paddles on two adjacent rotating shafts are staggered and arranged, and the positions are not one-to-one corresponding, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect.

[0038] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the plurality of rotating shafts 41 are arranged at equal intervals. Considering that some prawns are relatively large and the width of the flat conveyor belt is limited, the distance between the plurality of rotating shafts is determined by actual processing requirements.

[0039] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the arrangement positions of the paddles on any two rotating shafts separated by one rotating shaft 41 are the same. Considering that the paddles on two adjacent rotating shafts must be kept at a certain distance during rotation to work normally, the paddles on two adjacent rotating shafts are arranged in a staggered manner, and the arrangement positions of the paddles on any two rotating shafts separated by one rotating shaft are the same, which can optimize the structure of the entire shrimp processing device and improve the cleaning effect of residual shrimp shells and shrimp legs.

[0040] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the plurality of paddles 42 on each rotating shaft 41 are arranged at equal intervals. Of course, the distance between two adjacent paddles on the same rotating shaft is determined by the body structure of the shrimp to be processed and the specific processing requirements.

[0041] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the number of the rotating shafts 41 is eight, and the number of the paddles 42 on each rotating shaft 41 is four. The number of the rotating shafts and the number of the paddles are determined by the body structure of the shrimp to be processed and the specific processing requirements.

[0042] In addition, in the above embodiment, the paddle 42 is a silicone paddle. Considering the softness of the shrimp body, the material of the paddle can be selected from other rubber paddles, and the residual shrimp shell and shrimp legs can be effectively cleaned through the friction generated during the plucking process.

[0043] In the above embodiment, preferably, a first through hole is formed at one end of the connecting rod 24, and a second through hole is formed at the other end of the connecting rod 24;

[0044] One end of the connecting rod 24 is screwed through the first through hole and fixed to the surface of the power input sprocket 21; the other end of the connecting rod 24 is screwed through the second through hole and fixed to the corresponding position on the surface of the driving sprocket 22. The screw fixing method can ensure that the connecting rod plays a stable medium role during the working process, and tends to make the driving sprocket perform periodic reciprocating motion.

[0045] As for the belt transmission mechanism 3, preferably, it comprises two belt rollers 31 and a flat belt 32 wound around the belt rollers 31;

[0046] A bearing 311 is provided at one end of the belt roller 31, and the bearing 311 is connected to an external rotary motor through a second rotating shaft. It should be noted that the rotary motor driving the belt transmission and the power motor driving the power input sprocket are independent motors, and different models of stepper servo motors can be selected according to actual processing requirements and cost factors.

[0047] In order to improve the protection of the shrimp processing device, two side plates 43 are provided on both sides of the paddle mechanism 4 along the length direction of the rotating shaft 41. The side plates are not only used to accommodate the rotating shaft with the paddle, but also can change the height of the side plates so that the shrimp shells and shrimp legs cleaned by the paddle will not splash out during the cleaning process, thereby maintaining the cleanliness of the entire processing device.

[0048] The shrimp processing device provided by the embodiment of the present invention has the beneficial effect that, by constructing a structure of the shrimp processing device in which a frame, a power mechanism, a belt transmission mechanism and a paddle mechanism cooperate with each other, a synchronous gear is provided at one end of the rotating shaft in the paddle mechanism, so that the effect of driving all the rotating shafts to rotate accordingly can be achieved; and the power input sprocket, the driving sprocket and the driven sprocket in the power mechanism cooperate with each other through the connecting rod and the chain, so that the two adjacent rotating shafts make relative reciprocating motion; when the shrimp is transmitted on the belt transmission mechanism, the paddle will poke the passing shrimp body, loosen or peel off a small amount of shrimp shell or shrimp tentacles on the shrimp body, and after being pried by the paddle for many times, the shrimp shell or shrimp tentacles remaining on the shrimp body are pried off the shrimp body after being pried for many times, thereby achieving the purpose of removing the residual shrimp shell and shrimp tentacles. The entire processing device can improve the cleaning and processing efficiency of shrimps, thereby promoting the automation process of shrimp processing.

[0049] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
