[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chicken prepared products technology, specifically relating to a chicken prepared product processing device and its process. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the processing of chicken prepared products, factories process chicken into semi-finished products, then quick-freeze them before distributing them to various stores for use. The following problems exist in the transportation, seasoning, and quick-freezing process of chicken prepared products:

[0003] ① During the process of transporting and marinating chicken products, it is impossible to guarantee that the same amount of chicken products will be transported and marinated in equal amounts each time. Manual assistance is still required in the middle, resulting in low automation and reduced practicality.

[0004] ② During the process of marinating and seasoning chicken products to quick-freezing, it is not possible to automatically feed the chicken products while they are moving after marinating and seasoning are completed, and it is not possible to continuously and automatically add seasoning broth in equal amounts and perform seasoning treatment.

[0005] ③ In the production process of chicken prepared products, the transportation, seasoning and quick-freezing are carried out separately. The transportation, marinating and quick-freezing of chicken cannot be integrated into an integrated production process, which reduces the production efficiency of chicken prepared products.

[0006] Therefore, we propose a processing device and process for chicken prepared products. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a chicken processing apparatus and process to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a chicken seasoning processing apparatus, comprising a support base, wherein a [missing information] is disposed above the support base.

A second sensing plate is fixed to the outer circumferential side wall of the seasoning station. A second sensing sheet is connected to the top side wall of the second sensing plate. The first sensing sheet and the second sensing sheet are configured to cooperate with each other.

[0020] Furthermore, it should be noted that the equal-volume feeding assembly includes:

[0021] A first mounting plate is fixed to the top side wall of a fixed plate. A second mounting plate is fixed to the top of the first mounting plate. The first mounting plate and the second mounting plate are perpendicular to each other. A third mounting plate is fixed to the other end of the second mounting plate. A rotary motor is fixed to the top side wall of the third mounting plate. The output shaft of the rotary motor passes through the third mounting plate and a rotary table is fixed thereon.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the equal-volume feeding assembly includes:

[0023] Multiple adjusting shafts are rotatably connected to the outer circumferential sidewall of the rotating platform. A collection box is fixed to the other end of each adjusting shaft, and the rotation trajectory of the collection box is located directly above one of the seasoning stations. An adjusting gear is fixed to the outer sidewall of the adjusting shaft. A fourth mounting plate is fixed to the bottom sidewall of the second mounting plate. An arc-shaped plate is fixed to the bottom end of the fourth mounting plate. An adjusting rack is connected to the bottom sidewall of the arc-shaped plate and is located below the adjusting gear.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the equal-volume feeding assembly includes:

[0025] An installation strip is fixed to the top side wall of the connecting platform. An arc-shaped plate three is fixed to the top side wall of the installation strip. An adjusting rack two is connected to the top side wall of the arc-shaped plate three. The adjusting rack two is located above the adjusting gear, and both the adjusting rack one and the adjusting rack two are located on the movement trajectory of the adjusting gear.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the equal-volume feeding assembly includes:

[0027] A placement seat is fixed to the top side wall of a support seat. A second roller conveyor is fixed to the top side wall of the placement seat. The discharge end of the second roller conveyor is located directly above one of the collection boxes. A pressure sensor is installed on the bottom side wall of the collection box. A controller is embedded in the surface of a third mounting plate. The input end of the controller is connected to the pressure sensor, and the output end of the controller is connected to a rotary motor.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, a control plate is fixed to the bottom side wall of the fixed plate, and an extrusion plate is fixed to the side wall of the control plate near the seasoning table. The extrusion plate is located directly above the roller conveyor. A jog switch is installed on the side wall of the sensing plate away from the seasoning table. The jog switch includes an arc-shaped telescopic end and is connected to a stepper motor.

[0029] A processing method for a chicken seasoning processing apparatus includes the following steps:

[0030] S1: The chopped chicken is placed on the surface of roller conveyor two for conveying. The conveyed chicken falls into the collection box. When the required weight of chicken is collected in the collection box, the pressure sensor transmits a signal to the controller. The controller starts the rotary motor, causing the rotary table to rotate 90 degrees, positioning the next empty collection box directly below the feed of roller conveyor two. During the rotation of the rotary table, roller conveyor two stops conveying. When an empty collection box is below roller conveyor two, roller conveyor two will continue conveying the chicken. When the rotary table drives the adjusting shaft to rotate, the adjusting shaft drives the collection box to rotate. As the collection box moves to directly above the seasoning platform, the adjusting shaft drives the adjusting gear to rotate. The meshing of the adjusting gear and the second adjusting rack further rotates the adjusting shaft, causing the collection box to flip, so that its opening faces downwards. Just as the collection box moves directly above the seasoning tank, its opening faces downwards, allowing the chicken to fall into the tank. The rotating platform then continues to move the collection box. When the adjusting shaft drives the adjusting gear to rotate, the gear meshes with the first adjusting rack, causing the adjusting shaft to rotate in the opposite direction, turning the collection box's opening upwards. The box then continues to move to directly below the second roller conveyor, and this cycle repeats continuously.

[0031] S2: Simultaneously, the drive motor rotates the cross plate, which in turn rotates the seasoning platform 90 degrees. The seasoning platform is located directly below the liquid outlet pipe. The seasoning platform drives the second shaft to rotate along with the cross plate, which in turn rotates the second induction plate. The second induction plate then rotates the second induction element. When the second induction element detects the first induction element, it opens the control valve, allowing the seasoning broth to fall from the liquid outlet pipe into the seasoning tank directly below. Then, the drive motor continues to rotate the seasoning platform, which in turn rotates the second shaft. The second shaft rotates the guide gear, which meshes with the guide rack area, causing the second shaft to rotate. The second shaft then rotates the second pulley, which meshes with the first pulley, causing the first shaft to rotate. The first shaft then rotates the seasoning strip, which thoroughly mixes the chicken and seasoning broth.

[0032] S3: After seasoning is completed, the cross plate continues to drive the seasoning table to rotate. When the seasoning table moves the jog switch to the extrusion plate position, the arc-shaped extension end of the jog switch is squeezed by the extrusion plate, which starts the stepper motor. The stepper motor drives the connecting gear to rotate. The meshing transmission between the connecting gear and the connecting rack drives the discharge plate to move. The discharge plate no longer closes the discharge port, so that the seasoned chicken falls onto the surface of the roller conveyor. The chicken is then transported by the roller conveyor to the quick-freezing machine for quick-freezing. Finally, the quick-frozen chicken is collected and processed.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the chicken processing apparatus and process provided by the present invention have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0034] (1) The present invention can continuously feed chicken by setting an equal feeding component. During the feeding process, the chicken is automatically collected in equal amounts. At the same time, it can automatically switch after collecting the set weight, so that the collected chicken rotates to the top of the seasoning platform and automatically flips the chicken to discharge. The chicken inside the collection box is poured into the seasoning platform below for equal feeding, which improves convenience and eliminates the need for manual assistance.

[0035] (2) The present invention, through the setting of the seasoning component, can cause the seasoning table to drive the chicken to rotate with the cross plate after the chicken of the equal feeding component enters the seasoning tank. During the rotation, the seasoning component will add seasoning broth to the chicken in the seasoning tank for seasoning. During the seasoning process, the seasoning strip will automatically stir and season. After the seasoning is completed, after moving to the set position, the discharge port will automatically open so that the chicken seasoning falls on the surface of the roller conveyor and is quick-frozen by the quick-freezing machine, thus completing the automated operation.

[0036] (3) This invention integrates chicken transportation, marinating and seasoning, and quick-freezing into a single process. No manual assistance is required throughout the process, resulting in a high degree of automation. At the same time, it can process chicken in batches of equal quantities, which facilitates subsequent quick-freezing and packaging in batches of equal quantities. It integrates the traditional three-step process into a single operation, thereby improving the degree of automation. Attached Figure Description

[0048] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments.

[0049] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0050] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. The conditions in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to specific conditions, and simple improvements to the method of the present invention under the premise of the concept of the present invention are all within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0051] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-7 The present invention provides a chicken preparation processing apparatus, including a support base 1, and a surface disposed above the support base 1:

[0052] A connecting seat 25 is fixed on the top side wall of the support seat 1. A connecting platform 4 is fixed on one side wall of the connecting seat 25. A connecting channel 5 is opened on the top side wall of the connecting platform 4 in the vertical direction.

[0053] A seasoning component 7 is installed inside the connecting channel 5 and is used to automatically season and marinate chicken products.

[0054] An additive component 8 is installed above the connecting platform 4 to automatically add seasoning and marinade to chicken products, forming a fully automated addition process.

[0055] An equal-volume feeding component is installed on one side of the connecting table 4 to automatically feed chicken in equal quantities, ensuring that equal quantities of chicken seasonings can be automatically marinated subsequently, forming a fully automatic addition and production process.

[0056] A quick-freezing machine 3 is installed on the top side wall of the support base 1. A roller conveyor 2 is installed directly below the connecting channel 5, and the other end of the roller conveyor 2 is connected to the inlet end of the quick-freezing machine 3. This allows the marinated chicken to be transported along the roller conveyor 2 into the quick-freezing machine 3 for quick-freezing. Finally, the quick-frozen chicken is collected.

[0057] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, it is worth noting that the seasoning component 7 includes a fixing plate 6 fixed to the top side wall of the connecting platform 4. A drive motor 26 is fixed to the top side wall of the fixing plate 6. The output shaft of the drive motor 26 passes through the fixing plate 6 and is fixed to a cross plate 701. A seasoning platform 702 is fixed to the other end of the cross plate 701. A seasoning groove 703 is vertically opened on the top side wall of the seasoning platform 702. A first shaft 704 is rotatably connected to the center of the bottom side wall of the seasoning groove 703. A pulley 1 is fixed to the bottom end of the first shaft 704 below the seasoning platform 702. A plurality of symmetrically distributed seasoning strips 705 are fixed to the outer side wall of the first shaft 704. The seasoning strips 705 are located inside the seasoning groove 703 and can fully mix the chicken and the seasoning marinade. A second shaft 707 is rotatably connected to the bottom side wall of the seasoning platform 702. A pulley 2 is fixed on the second shaft 707. The pulley 1 and the pulley 702 are rotatably connected to the second shaft 702. A transmission belt 706 is connected between the two pulleys. A guide gear 708 is fixed at the bottom of the second shaft 707. When the second shaft 707 rotates, it will automatically drive the first shaft 704 to rotate. The first shaft 704 drives the seasoning strip 705 to rotate and mix the chicken with the seasoning and marinade, which effectively helps to mix the chicken. An arc-shaped plate 709 is fixed on the inner wall of the connecting channel 5. A guide rack 710 is provided on the side wall of the arc-shaped plate 709 near the seasoning table 702. The guide gear 708 and the guide rack 710 are meshed and connected. During the rotation of the seasoning table 702, the guide gear 708 and the guide rack 710 will automatically mesh and drive the second shaft 707 to rotate, thereby driving the first shaft 704 to rotate and causing the seasoning strip 705 to rotate, so as to quickly season the chicken with the marinade.

[0058] Further as Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, it is worth noting that the bottom sidewall of the seasoning station 702 has a discharge port 711, which communicates with the interior of the seasoning tank 703. The outer circumferential sidewall of the seasoning station 702 has a discharge channel, which communicates with the interior of the discharge port 711. A discharge plate 712 is slidably connected between the inner sidewalls of the discharge channel. One end of the discharge plate 712 is located inside the discharge port 711, initially sealing the discharge port 711. The other end of the discharge plate 712 extends to the outside of the discharge channel. A fixing seat 713 is fixed to the bottom sidewall of the seasoning station 702. The bottom sidewall of the fixing seat 713 is fixed... A stepper motor 714 is provided, and the output shaft of the stepper motor 714 passes through the fixed base 713 and is fixed with a connecting gear 715. A connecting rack 716 is provided on the side wall of the discharge plate 712 near the connecting gear 715 along its length. The connecting gear 715 and the connecting rack 716 are meshed and connected. When the seasoning table 702 rotates to the position directly above the roller conveyor 2, the stepper motor 714 will be automatically started to move the discharge plate 712, so that the discharge plate 712 opens the discharge port 711, so that the seasoned chicken product falls onto the surface of the roller conveyor 2 for conveying, and then passes through the quick-freezing machine 3 for quick-freezing treatment.

[0059] Further as Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, it is worth noting that the adding component 8 includes a liquid storage tank 801 fixed to the top side wall of the fixing plate 6. An inlet pipe 802 is fixed to the top side wall of the liquid storage tank 801, communicating with the interior of the liquid storage tank 801. An outlet pipe 803 is fixed to the bottom side wall of the liquid storage tank 801, communicating with the interior of the liquid storage tank 801. A control valve 804 is connected to the outlet pipe 803. The liquid storage tank 801 is used to place and store the prepared seasoning broth. Through the outlet pipe 803 and the control valve 804, an equal amount of seasoning broth can be added to the seasoning tank 703 each time the seasoning plate 702 passes through the outlet pipe 803, effectively seasoning the chicken. The bottom of the fixing plate 6... A sensor plate 805 is fixed to the end side wall, and a sensor sheet 806 is fixed to the bottom side wall of the sensor plate 805. A sensor plate 807 is fixed to the outer circumferential side wall of the seasoning plate 702, and a sensor sheet 808 is connected to the top side wall of the sensor plate 807. The sensor sheet 806 and the sensor sheet 808 are configured to cooperate. When the sensor sheet 806 and the sensor sheet 808 are close to each other, the control valve 804 can be activated, so that the control valve 804 opens the liquid outlet pipe 803 for a set time, so that the seasoning broth falls into the liquid outlet pipe 803 in an equal amount. Then the control valve 804 closes the liquid outlet pipe 803. This cycle repeats, and the marinade broth is automatically added to the chicken inside the seasoning tank 703 in an equal amount. The degree of automation is high.

[0060] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, it is worth noting that the equal feeding assembly includes a first mounting plate 9 fixed to the top side wall of the fixed plate 6, a second mounting plate 10 fixed to the top of the first mounting plate 9, the first mounting plate 9 and the second mounting plate 10 being arranged perpendicularly to each other, a third mounting plate 11 fixed to the other end of the second mounting plate 10, a rotary motor 12 fixed to the top side wall of the third mounting plate 11, a rotary table 13 fixed to the output shaft of the rotary motor 12 passing through the third mounting plate 11, the lowest position of the rotary table 13 being higher than the highest position of the connecting table 4, a plurality of symmetrically distributed adjusting shafts 14 being rotatably connected to the outer side wall of the rotary table 13 in a circumferential direction, a collection box 15 fixed to the other end of the adjusting shaft 14, and the rotation trajectory of the collection box 15 being located directly above one of the seasoning tables 702, enabling the chicken inside the collection box 15 to fall into the seasoning tank 703 in equal amounts for collection.

[0061] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it is worth noting that an adjusting gear 16 is fixed to the outer wall of the adjusting shaft 14, a fourth mounting plate 19 is fixed to the bottom side wall of the second mounting plate 10, an arc-shaped plate 20 is fixed to the bottom of the fourth mounting plate 19, an adjusting rack 21 is connected to the bottom side wall of the arc-shaped plate 20, the adjusting rack 21 is located below the adjusting gear 16, an mounting strip 22 is fixed to the top side wall of the connecting platform 4, an arc-shaped plate 23 is fixed to the top side wall of the mounting strip 22, an adjusting rack 24 is connected to the top side wall of the arc-shaped plate 23, the adjusting rack 24 is located above the adjusting gear 16, and both the adjusting rack 21 and the adjusting rack 24 are located on the movement trajectory of the adjusting gear 16. When the adjusting gear 16 meshes with the adjusting rack 21 and the adjusting rack 24 respectively, it will automatically drive the collecting box 15 to flip over for unloading and then flip over again for collecting, thus improving the degree of automation.

[0062] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, it is worth noting that a placement seat 17 is fixed to the top side wall of the support base 1, and a roller conveyor 18 is fixed to the top side wall of the placement seat 17. The discharge end of the roller conveyor 18 is located directly above one of the collection boxes 15, which can automatically convey the chopped chicken material and let it fall into the collection box 15 for collection. A pressure sensor is installed on the bottom side wall of the collection box 15, and a controller is embedded in the surface of the third mounting plate 11. The input end of the controller is connected to the pressure sensor, and the output end of the controller is connected to the rotary motor 12. When the chicken material inside the collection box 15 is collected to the required weight, the controller will start the rotary motor 12, so that the rotary motor 12 drives the rotary table 13 to rotate, so that the next empty collection box 15 continues to be located directly below the discharge position of the roller conveyor 18. During the rotation of the rotary table 13, the roller conveyor 18 stops conveying. When the rotary table 13 stops rotating, the roller conveyor 18 will continue to convey the chicken material.

[0063] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it is worth noting that a control plate is fixed to the bottom side wall of the fixed plate 6. A pressing plate 27 is fixed to the side wall of the control plate near the seasoning table 702, and the pressing plate 27 is located directly above the roller conveyor 2. A jog switch 809 is installed on the side wall of the sensing plate 807 away from the seasoning table 702. The jog switch 809 includes an arc-shaped telescopic end. When the arc-shaped telescopic end of the jog switch 809 is pressed by the pressing plate 27, it will start the stepper motor 714, thereby automatically opening and closing the discharge port 711.

[0064] This solution involves the following steps: Cut chicken pieces are placed on the surface of roller conveyor 18 for transport. The transported chicken falls into collection box 15. When the required weight of chicken is collected in collection box 15, a pressure sensor transmits a signal to the controller. The controller then starts the rotary motor 12, causing the rotary motor 12 to rotate the rotary table 13 90 degrees, positioning the next empty collection box 15 directly below the feed from roller conveyor 18. While the rotary table 13 is rotating, roller conveyor 18 stops transporting chicken. When the empty collection box 15 is below roller conveyor 18, roller conveyor 18 resumes transporting the chicken. The rotary table 13 rotates the adjusting shaft 14, which in turn rotates the collection box... As the collection box 15 rotates, when it moves directly above the seasoning platform 702, the adjusting shaft 14 drives the adjusting gear 16 to rotate. The adjusting gear 16 meshes with the adjusting rack 24, causing the adjusting shaft 14 to rotate. The adjusting shaft 14 then causes the collection box 15 to flip, so that the opening of the collection box 15 faces downwards. Just as the collection box 15 moves directly above the seasoning tank 703, its opening faces downwards, allowing the chicken to fall into the seasoning tank 703. Then, the rotating platform 13 continues to move the collection box 15. When the adjusting shaft 14 drives the adjusting gear 16 to rotate, the adjusting gear 16 meshes with the adjusting rack 21, causing the adjusting shaft 14 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the opening of the collection box 15 faces upwards. Then, it continues to move directly below the roller conveyor 18, repeating the cycle. Simultaneously, the drive motor 26 drives the cross plate 701 to rotate, which in turn drives the seasoning platform 702 to rotate 90 degrees. The seasoning platform 702 is located directly below the outlet pipe 803. The seasoning platform 702 drives the second shaft 707 to rotate along with the cross plate 701, which in turn drives the second sensing plate 807 to rotate. The second sensing plate 807 drives the second sensing element 808 to rotate. When the second sensing element 808 senses the first sensing element 806, it opens the control valve 804, allowing the seasoning broth to fall from the outlet pipe 803 into the seasoning tank 703 directly below. Then, the drive motor 26 continues to drive the seasoning platform 702 to rotate. The second shaft 707 rotates, which in turn drives the guide gear 708 to rotate. When the guide gear 708 passes through the guide rack 710 area, it engages with the guide gear, causing the second shaft 707 to rotate. The second shaft 707 then drives the second pulley to rotate. The second pulley meshes with the first pulley, causing the first shaft 704 to rotate. The first shaft 704 then drives the seasoning strip 705 to rotate, thoroughly mixing the chicken with the seasoning broth. After seasoning is complete, the cross plate 701 continues to rotate the seasoning table 702. When the seasoning table 702 moves the jog switch 809 to the extrusion plate 27, the arc-shaped telescopic end of the jog switch 809 is extruded by the extrusion plate 27.The stepper motor 714 is started, driving the connecting gear 715 to rotate. The meshing transmission between the connecting gear 715 and the connecting rack 716 moves the discharge plate 712, removing the seal on the discharge port 711. This allows the seasoned chicken to fall onto the surface of the roller conveyor 2, which then transports the chicken to the quick-freezing machine 3 for quick-freezing. Finally, the quick-frozen chicken is collected and processed.

The processing technology of the chicken seasoning processing apparatus according to claim 6, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: S1: The chopped chicken is placed on the surface of roller conveyor two (18) for conveying. After conveying, the chicken falls into the collection box (15). When the chicken in the collection box (15) reaches the required weight, the pressure sensor transmits a signal to the controller. The controller starts the rotary motor (12), which drives the rotary table (13) to rotate 90 degrees, so that the next empty collection box (15) is located directly below the feeding of roller conveyor two (18). During the rotation of the rotary table (13), roller conveyor two (18) stops conveying. When the empty collection box (15) is below roller conveyor two (18), roller conveyor two (18) will continue to convey the chicken. When the rotary table (13) drives the adjusting shaft (14) to rotate, the adjusting shaft (14) drives the collection box (15) to rotate. When the collection box (15) moves to the seasoning table (7) 02) During the process of moving directly above, the adjusting shaft (14) drives the adjusting gear (16) to rotate. The adjusting gear (16) meshes with the adjusting rack (24) to drive the adjusting shaft (14) to rotate. The adjusting shaft (14) drives the collecting box (15) to flip, so that the opening of the collecting box (15) flips downward. Just when the collecting box (15) moves directly above the seasoning tank (703), the opening of the collecting box (15) is set downward, so that the chicken falls into the seasoning tank (703). Then the rotating table (13) continues to drive the collecting box (15) to move. When the adjusting shaft (14) drives the adjusting gear (16) to rotate, the adjusting gear (16) meshes with the adjusting rack (21) to drive the adjusting shaft (14) to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the opening of the collecting box (15) is set upward. Then it continues to move directly below the roller conveyor (18), and the cycle repeats. S2: At the same time, the drive motor (26) drives the cross plate (701) to rotate, and the cross plate (701) drives the seasoning platform (702) to rotate 90 degrees. The seasoning platform (702) is located directly below the liquid outlet pipe (803). The seasoning platform (702) drives the second shaft (707) to rotate with the cross plate (701).

When the second sensor piece (808) senses the first sensor piece (806), the control valve (804) is opened, so that the seasoning soup falls from the liquid outlet pipe (803) into the seasoning tank (703) directly below. Inside, the drive motor (26) continues to drive the seasoning table (702) to rotate. The seasoning table (702) drives the second shaft (707) to rotate. The second shaft (707) drives the guide gear (708) to rotate. When the guide gear (708) passes through the area of ​​the guide rack (710), it will mesh and drive the second shaft (707) to rotate. The second shaft (707) drives the second pulley to rotate. The meshing transmission between the second pulley and the first pulley drives the first shaft (704) to rotate. The first shaft (704) drives the seasoning strip (705) to rotate. The seasoning strip (705) fully mixes the chicken and the seasoning broth. S3: After seasoning is completed, the cross plate (701) continues to drive the seasoning table (702) to rotate. When the seasoning table (702) drives the jog switch (809) to move to the position of the extrusion plate (27), the arc-shaped extension end of the jog switch (809) is squeezed by the extrusion plate (27), which starts the stepper motor (714). The stepper motor (714) drives the connecting gear (715) to rotate. The meshing transmission between the connecting gear (715) and the connecting rack (716) drives the discharge plate (712) to move. The discharge plate (712) no longer closes the discharge port (711), so that the seasoned chicken falls on the surface of the roller conveyor (2). The chicken is transported to the quick-freezing machine (3) for quick-freezing. Finally, the quick-frozen chicken is collected.
