Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mussel processing, and in particular relates to automated processing equipment for half-shell mussels. Background Art

[0002] Mussels, also known as clams, are cooked and processed into a dried product called clams. They are bivalve molluscs with dark brown shells that live on rocky shores. They are found along the coasts of the Yellow Sea, Bohai Sea, and East China Sea. Their shells are wedge-shaped, tapering at the front and broadening at the rear. The shells are equal and symmetrical, with a lustrous surface and distinct growth lines that extend in a circular pattern from the front. Mussels use their byssal threads to attach to their substrates and filter feed through their gills. They feed on microorganisms and organic debris in the seawater. Thick-shelled mussels are a highly nutritious marine commercial shellfish with high edible value, broad aquaculture prospects, and market development potential.

[0003] Currently, processing thick-shelled mussels into half-shell mussels often involves steaming them in boilers, a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. The shell and flesh remain intact on one side, requiring workers to use a peeling knife to separate the shell and flesh from one side, manually prying off the separated shell and plucking the mussel's byssus threads. The production of half-shell mussels generates a large amount of cooking wastewater and involves burning coal or biomass fuels, polluting the environment and limiting automation.

By providing a half-shell removal mechanism 8, the tool 84 cuts off the hinges between the shells of the mussels to complete the half-shelling process of the mussels. After the mussels are half-shelled and the byssus are removed, they are collected by the half-shell conveying mechanism 9 and then transferred to the subsequent processing steps. The byssus falling mechanism 10 separates the clip main board 41 of the hook mechanism 4, and the adsorption port 102 generates negative pressure through the adsorption machine 104 to suck the byssus into the inside of the receiving hopper 101 to complete the centralized collection of the byssus.

The automated processing equipment for half-shell mussels arranges the mussels in sequence at a certain distance and arrives at the entrance of the sliding track 11 under the action of the conveying mechanism 2, and drives the hook mechanism 4 to move through the track mechanism 3, so that the hook mechanism 4 pushes the mussels to move on the sliding track 11. With the cooperation of the hook mechanism 4 and the first clamping auxiliary 51 and the second clamping auxiliary 52, the byssus is clamped, and the mussels are heated by the heating mechanism 6 to heat the mussels.

[0068] In combination with the above content, the clip movement mechanism 7 includes a clip movement block 71, a limiting roller track 72, a spring bead 73 and a mussel movement track 74. The clip movement block 71 is fixedly installed on the top of the operating table 1 through a mounting block. The limiting roller track 72 and the mussel movement track 74 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the clip movement block 71, and several spring beads 73 are arranged on both sides of the clip movement block 71.

[0069] In this embodiment: the hook mechanism 4 pushes the mussel into the clamp movement mechanism 7, and the mussel enters the mussel movement track 74 for smooth movement. When the limiting roller 49 on the hook mechanism 4 enters the limiting roller track 72, it will drive the two clamp main boards 41 to move up and down, thereby driving the two clamping blocks 42 that clamp the byssus to move up and down, separating the byssus from the shell, and completing the removal of the byssus.

[0070] It should be noted that the limiting roller track 72 has two curved slopes. When the limiting roller 49 enters the limiting roller track 72, it will drive the two clip main boards 41 to move up and down twice, so as to achieve a better removal effect of the byssus.

[0071] like Figure 1 and Figure 10 As shown;

[0072] In combination with the above content, a half-shell removing mechanism 8 is provided behind the clamp moving block 71. The half-shell removing mechanism 8 includes an inlet platform part 81, a fixing frame 82 and a meat protecting part 83. The fixing frame 82 is fixedly installed on the top of the operating table 1. The inlet platform part 81 is movably connected to the fixing frame 82. A tool 84 is provided on the inner side of the inlet platform part 81. A water spray gun 85 is provided on the inner side wall of the inlet platform part 81 and on one side of the tool 84. The meat protecting part 83 is fixedly installed on the top side of the fixing frame 82. A first water receiving bucket 86 and a first drain pipe 87 are provided at the bottom of the inlet platform part 81.

[0073] In this embodiment, the inlet platform 81 is V-shaped. The mussel enters the V-shaped inlet under the push of the hook mechanism 4, and then continues to push the mussel so that the cutter 84 enters between the two shells of the mussel. As the hook mechanism 4 is pushed, the cutter 84 cuts off the hinge between the shells of the mussel. During this process, the meat guard 83 separates the mussel meat from the cutter 84 to prevent the mussel meat from being cut by the cutter 84. At the same time, the water spray gun 85 sprays water at the cutter 84 to wash away the cut debris, keep the cutter 84 clean, and keep the mussel clean. The water sprayed from the water spray gun 85 is collected and discharged through the first water receiving bucket 86 and the first drain pipe 87 provided at the bottom of the inlet platform 81.

[0074] It should be noted that the inlet platform 81 can move slightly on the fixed frame 82, one side of the meat guard 83 is arc-shaped, and the tool 84 can be a pneumatic ultrasonic cutting knife, an electro-ultrasonic cutting knife, a rotary raw slice knife, a rotary serrated knife, etc.

[0075] like Figure 1 and Figure 11 As shown;

[0076] In combination with the above content, the half-shell conveying mechanism 9 includes a sorting bucket 91 and a shell conveyor 93. The sorting bucket 91 is arranged on one side of the half-shell removing mechanism 8. The inner wall of the sorting bucket 91 is provided with several spray pipes 92. The shell conveyor 93 is arranged at the bottom of the sorting bucket 91. The bottom of the shell conveyor 93 is provided with a second water receiving bucket 94 and a second drainage pipe 95.

[0077] In this embodiment, after the mussels are shed from their half shells and byssus threads, the fleshy half-shell mussels and the other valve shell will fall into a sorting bucket 91, thereby separating the fleshy half-shell mussels from the other valve shell. The half-shell mussels are sprayed and cleaned through a plurality of spray pipes 92, and then the fleshy half-shell mussels and the other valve shell are brought to subsequent processing steps through a shell conveyor 93. The water sprayed from the spray pipe 92 can be collected and discharged through a second water receiving bucket 94 and a second drain pipe 95.

[0078] It should be noted that: the half shells with meat and the half shells without meat are transported separately through the sorting bucket 91 and the shell conveyor 93.

[0079] like Figure 1 and Figure 12 As shown;

[0080] In combination with the above content, the byssus thread shedding mechanism 10 includes a receiving hopper 101, a suction port 102, a suction pipe 103, an adsorption machine 104, a mounting column 105, and a top block 106. The receiving hopper 101 is installed on the top of the operating platform 1. The top of the receiving hopper 101 is provided with a suction port 102. The receiving hopper 101 is connected to the adsorption machine 104 through the suction pipe 103. The mounting column 105 is fixedly installed on one side of the receiving hopper 101, and the top block 106 is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting column 105.

[0081] In this embodiment, the top block 106 is located between the two clamping blocks 42. The byssus threads shed from the mussels are clamped by the clamping blocks 42 and brought into the byssus thread shedding mechanism 10. Under the action of the top block 106, the hook member 43 and the second connecting rod 410 are separated from the combined state, so that the clamping block 415 is pulled out from between the two clamping columns 418, and the clamping block 42 is separated. At this time, the clamping block 42 is directly above the suction port 102. The suction port 102 generates negative pressure under the action of the adsorption machine 104 and the suction pipe 103, and the byssus threads are sucked into the receiving hopper 101. At this point, the fresh mussels complete the entire process of half-shell removal and byssus thread removal. The hook mechanism 4 is connected to the operation of the track mechanism 3 to form a closed loop, and this reciprocating process is used to realize the automated processing process of half-shell mussels.

[0082] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
