TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, in particular to a dicing mechanism for a fruit and vegetable dicing machine and the fruit and vegetable dicing machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] The fruit and vegetable dicing machine is used for cutting fruit and vegetable food materials into dices or blocks. Generally, the processing steps of the dicing of the fruit and vegetable food materials are to first cut the food materials into sheet-shaped food materials, then cut the sheet-shaped food materials into strip-shaped food materials, and finally cut the strip-shaped food materials into dice-shaped food materials.
[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent application with the application number CN201821944001.1 (the authorized announcement number is CN209063156U) discloses a food material dicing device, which includes a shell with a rectangular cavity. A slicing knife group composed of a plurality of horizontally arranged long strip-shaped slicing knife blades is arranged in the shell. The slicing knife group divides the rectangular cavity into two small rectangular cavities. The cavity with the slicing knife blade edge facing it is a slicing cavity, and the other cavity is a dicing cavity. The gap between adjacent slicing knife blades and the gap between the outermost slicing knife blade and the inner wall of the shell form a slicing discharge port, which connects the slicing cavity and the dicing cavity. All the slicing discharge ports are uniform in size. A dicing knife group composed of a plurality of longitudinally and transversely intersecting dicing knife blades is arranged on the lower bottom surface of the dicing cavity. After the food materials are sliced in the slicing cavity, the food materials enter the dicing cavity to complete the dicing of the food materials. When the slicing operation is performed, the food materials are put into the feeding port. The slicing push rod is pushed to make the slicing push block of the slicing push body enter the slicing knife group to cut the food materials into sheet-shaped food materials. Then, the sheet-shaped food materials smoothly enter the dicing cavity. The dicing push rod is pressed to make the dicing push block of the dicing push body enter the dicing knife group to cut the sheet-shaped food materials into dice-shaped food materials. Then, the dice-shaped food materials are smoothly pushed out from the lower discharge port.
[0004] In the above patent application, the food materials are cut into a plurality of sheet-shaped food materials stacked together by the slicing knife group at one time. Then, the stacked sheet-shaped food materials are pushed and pressed by the dicing push block to be cut into dice-shaped food materials by the dicing knife group at one time. Since the plurality of sheet-shaped food materials are diced at one time, the resistance in the slicing process is large, a large force needs to be applied, and the pressing time of the food materials is relatively long. Therefore, the food materials are easily damaged due to excessive pressing (for example, the part of the food materials in contact with the dicing cone is crushed), which affects the slicing effect of the food materials. On the other hand, if the strength of the dicing knife group itself is not enough, the dicing knife group is easily deformed, which affects the slicing effect. SUMMARY
[0005] The first technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a dicing mechanism for a fruit and vegetable dicing machine, which has a smooth slicing action process and is not easy to cause the food materials to be damaged due to excessive pressing.
[0006] The second technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a fruit and vegetable dicing machine using the above-mentioned dicing mechanism in view of the current situation of the prior art.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present application to solve the first technical problem is a dicing mechanism for a fruit and vegetable dicing machine, which is arranged on a machine body of the dicing machine and comprises
[0008] A dicing cutter barrel is arranged on the machine body in a manner capable of rotating about its own axis, and the dicing cutter barrel has a grid structure with dicing mesh holes distributed throughout the barrel.
[0009] An extrusion roller is arranged on the machine body in a manner capable of rotating about its own axis outside the dicing cutter barrel, and the axis of the extrusion roller is substantially parallel to the axis of the dicing cutter barrel. During rotation, the extrusion roller can extrude the sheet-shaped food material towards the inside of the dicing cutter barrel, thereby forming diced food material in the inside of the dicing cutter barrel.
[0010] In order to facilitate the assembly of the above-mentioned grid-shaped dicing cutter barrel, the dicing cutter barrel comprises annular blades arranged in sequence along its axis and strip-shaped blades arranged in sequence along the circumferential direction of the dicing cutter barrel and extending along the axial direction of the dicing cutter barrel. Each strip-shaped blade is arranged outside each annular blade, thereby forming a grid structure with dicing mesh holes throughout the barrel.
[0011] In order to ensure the strength of the dicing cutter barrel and avoid deformation, the outer side of each annular blade has a first clamping groove arranged in sequence along its circumferential direction, and the inner side of each strip-shaped blade has a second clamping groove arranged in sequence along its length direction. Each strip-shaped blade is embedded in the first clamping groove of each annular blade in the same linear direction, and each annular blade is clamped into the second clamping groove on the strip-shaped blade.
[0012] As an improvement, the outer peripheral wall of the extrusion roller is a smooth wall surface; or
[0013] The outer peripheral wall of the extrusion roller is provided with a protruding portion protruding in the radial direction and capable of being clamped into each dicing mesh hole of the dicing cutter barrel.
[0014] The use of a smooth wall surface for the extrusion roller facilitates cleaning and prevents food residue. The use of an extrusion roller with a protruding portion allows it to be extruded with each dicing mesh hole on the cutter barrel, ensuring dicing effect. During synchronous rotation of the extrusion roller and the dicing cutter barrel, each protruding portion on the extrusion roller can be embedded in the corresponding dicing mesh hole of the cutter barrel, thereby effectively preventing food residue in the dicing mesh hole, especially the material residue of the last piece of sheet-shaped food material.
[0015] In order to further improve the dicing effect, the dicing cutter barrel and the extrusion roller rotate in opposite directions, and the upper area between the two forms a storage area for storing sheet-shaped food materials. The dicing cutter barrel and the extrusion roller rotate in opposite directions, so that the sheet-shaped food materials can be extruded immediately after falling into the storage area between the two to form diced food materials, improving the dicing efficiency.
[0016] In order to facilitate the discharge of diced food materials in the dicing cutter barrel, the axis of the dicing cutter barrel is arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane, and the bottom end of the dicing cutter barrel has an open mouth as a first discharge port for the diced food materials in the barrel to flow out.
[0017] The technical solution adopted by the present application to solve the second technical problem is: a fruit and vegetable dicing machine, comprising a machine body, and the machine body is further provided with the fruit and vegetable dicing machine dicing mechanism described above.

[0019] As an improvement, the machine body is further provided with a driving mechanism for driving the dicing cutter barrel and / or the extrusion roller.

[0021] In order to adapt to the obliquely arranged dicing cutter barrel and extrusion roller, the dicing cutter barrel and the extrusion roller are rotatably connected to the machine body, and a gear chamber for placing the first gear transmission assembly is further defined on the machine body independently of the dicing chamber, the gear chamber and the dicing chamber are separated by a partition plate, the partition plate comprises an installation plate arranged obliquely relative to the vertical plane, the upper end of the dicing cutter barrel has a first connecting shaft extending in the axial direction, the first connecting shaft extends through the installation plate and into the gear chamber to be connected with the first gear transmission assembly, and the upper end of the extrusion roller has a second connecting shaft extending in the axial direction, the second connecting shaft extends through the installation plate and into the gear chamber to be also connected with the first gear transmission assembly.
[0022] Generally, the first gear transmission mechanism can adopt various straight-toothed or bevel gear transmission matching structures. In order to simplify the structure of the first gear transmission assembly, the first gear transmission assembly comprises:

[0028] A sixth gear is coaxially connected to the second connecting shaft and is engaged with the fourth gear, thereby driving the extrusion roller to rotate.
[0029] Since the dicing mechanism needs to process sheet-shaped food materials, in order to be able to slice the original food materials and then dice them, the machine body is further provided with a slicing unit for slicing food materials.

[0037] The feeding opening on the machine body is offset to one side directly above the slicing knife cylinder, and the automatic feeding of the food material is realized by designing the first material guiding flow channel in the same direction as the cutting direction and the gravity direction of the food material, so that the feeding process of the food material does not need to be pressed by adding a pressing component.

[0046] Generally, the axis of the slicing disc can extend vertically, horizontally or obliquely relative to a vertical plane, and in order to facilitate slicing of the food material, the axis of the slicing disc extends horizontally, and the slicing unit further comprises a second material guide hopper below the slicing disc for receiving sheet food material cut by the slicing disc.
[0047] In order to facilitate automatic feeding during slicing of the food material, a feeding opening is formed in the top of the body, and a second material guide channel extending downward from the feeding opening and obliquely toward the inlet side of the slicing disc is further arranged on the body.

The ring-shaped blades 63 are also arranged in sequence and are spaced apart along the axial direction of the cutting die cylinder 60, each strip-shaped blade 64 is arranged outside each ring-shaped blade 63, thereby forming a grid structure with the cutting die mesh 600 as a whole. More specifically, the outer side of each ring-shaped blade 63 has a first clamping groove 631 opened in sequence along the circumferential direction thereof, the extension direction of the first clamping groove 631 is consistent with the radial direction of the ring-shaped blade 63, and the inner side of each strip-shaped blade 64 has a second clamping groove 641 opened in sequence along the length direction thereof, the extension direction of the second clamping groove 641 is consistent with the width direction of the strip-shaped blade 64. Each strip-shaped blade 64 is embedded in the first clamping groove 631 of each ring-shaped blade 63 in the same linear direction, and in the state that the strip-shaped blade is embedded in the first clamping groove 631 of the ring-shaped blade 63, each ring-shaped blade 63 is also clamped into each second clamping groove 641 on the strip-shaped blade 64, thereby ensuring the strength of the cutting die cylinder 60 and avoiding deformation problems. On the other hand, the assembly structure design of the ring-shaped blades 63 and the strip-shaped blades 64 makes the cutting edges on the outer side of the ring-shaped blades 63 and the cutting edges on the outer side of the strip-shaped blades 64 substantially located on the same outer peripheral surface, that is, jointly constitute the cutting edges of the cutting die cylinder 60.
[0089] Referring to Figure 2The slicing unit is located above the cubing unit, and specifically includes a cutter barrel shell 36 and a slicing cutter barrel 30. The top of the cubing chamber 11 has a cubing inlet 110 extending through from top to bottom, and the cutter barrel shell 36 is a vertically extending cylindrical shell structure fixed at the cubing inlet 110 of the cubing chamber 11, with the lower end of the cutter barrel shell 36 being open and opposite to the cubing inlet 110. The slicing cutter barrel 30 is arranged inside the cutter barrel shell 36 and also vertically extends. The upper end of the slicing cutter barrel 30 is rotationally connected to the machine body 10 and coaxially connected to an eleventh gear 344 located outside the cutter barrel shell 36. The peripheral wall of the slicing cutter barrel 30 is provided with a first sheet-shaped food material inlet 300 extending through from inside to outside and along the length direction, and a first slicing cutter 31 is arranged at the first sheet-shaped food material inlet. During the slicing rotation, the first slicing cutter 31 can slice the food material, and the sliced sheet-shaped food material enters the slicing cutter barrel 30 through the first sheet-shaped food material inlet 300. The bottom end of the slicing cutter barrel 30 is open to form a second discharge outlet 32 for the sheet-shaped food material to flow out, and the second discharge outlet 32 is opposite to the cubing inlet 110 of the cubing chamber 11 in the up-down direction.
[0090] In order to drive the slicing cutter barrel 30 to rotate, a second gear transmission assembly is further connected in transmission with the first gear transmission assembly 22. The second gear transmission assembly includes an eighth gear 341, a ninth gear 342, a tenth gear 343, and an eleventh gear 344. The eighth gear 341 is located above the first gear 221 and rotationally connected to the machine body 10 through a front-rear extending first support shaft 3410, and the eighth gear 341 is in mesh with the first gear 221. The ninth gear 342 is located above the eighth gear 341 and arranged to the right side (i.e. close to the side where the slicing cutter barrel 30 is located), and the ninth gear 342 is in mesh with the eighth gear 341. The ninth gear 342 is rotationally connected to the machine body 10 through a front-rear extending second support shaft 3420, and the tenth gear 343 is also arranged on the second support shaft 3420, specifically at the end of the second support shaft 3420, and the tenth gear 343 can be driven to rotate when the ninth gear 342 rotates. The eleventh gear 344 is connected to the upper end of the slicing cutter barrel 30 and in mesh with the tenth gear 343. When the driving motor 21 works, power can be transmitted to the slicing cutter barrel 30 through the first gear transmission assembly 22 and the second gear transmission assembly to drive the cutter barrel to rotate, thereby realizing the action of the slicing unit and the cubing unit driven by the same driving motor 21.
[0091] The top of the machine body 10 is provided with a feeding port 100, and the machine body 10 is further provided with a first material guide flow channel 141 extending downward from the feeding port 100 and inclined to the side of the slicing cutter barrel 30. Correspondingly, the side of the cutter barrel shell 36 has an opening corresponding to and communicating with the port of the first material guide flow channel 141.
[0092] Referring to Figure 4Since the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65 are both cylindrical, an inverted triangular-shaped storage area 66 is formed above the abutting position of the two, which can be used to store (buffer) the sheet food. During the opposite rotation of the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65, the sheet food falling into the above-mentioned storage area 66 can be extruded and diced in time. The dicing inlet 110 of the dicing chamber 11 is also provided with a guide plate for guiding the sheet food to the above-mentioned storage area 66. Specifically, in order to adapt the guide plate to the dicing single barrel and the extrusion roller 65, the guide plate of the present embodiment includes a first guide plate 111 and a second guide plate 112 arranged opposite to each other in the left-right direction, and the distance between the first guide plate 111 and the second guide plate 112 gradually decreases from top to bottom. Preferably, the first guide plate 111 and the second guide plate 112 are both arc-shaped plate structures protruding towards each other, thereby facilitating the smooth and rapid falling of the sheet food completed by slicing.
[0093] The outer diameter size of the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the outer diameter size of the extrusion roller 65 in the present embodiment can also be different. Specifically, the number of dicing mesh holes 600 on the circumference of the dicing cutter barrel 60 is x1, and the number of protruding parts 650 on the circumference of the extrusion roller 65 is x2, which satisfies the following condition:
[0094] x1=n*x2;
[0095] n is a positive integer;
[0096] Similarly, the number of teeth of each gear of the first gear transmission assembly 22 also needs to be adjusted accordingly to ensure that the speed ratio of the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65 is 1:n.
[0097] The working process of the dicing machine of the present embodiment is as follows:
[0098] After the food material is fed into the first guide channel from the feeding port 100, the slicing cutter barrel 30 of the slicing unit slices the food material, and the formed sheet food falls into the dicing inlet 110 of the dicing chamber 11 below, and under the guidance of the guide plate, falls into the storage area 66 between the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65. Since the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65 are also rotating in opposite directions, when the sheet food contacts the dicing cutter barrel 60, it will be immediately extruded by the rotating extrusion roller 65 to form a diced food. This continuous slicing and dicing process makes it difficult for materials to accumulate between the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65, and there is no need to apply excessive force between the dicing cutter barrel 60 and the extrusion roller 65. Therefore, the dicing cutter barrel 60 is not prone to deformation, and the sheet food will not be damaged due to long-term extrusion, ensuring the overall dicing effect and improving the user's experience.
[0099] Embodiment 2
[0100] Referring toFigures 9-11 The difference between the dicing machine of the embodiment and the dicing machine of embodiment 1 is that the structure of the slicing cutter barrel 30 of the slicing unit is different and the corresponding second gear transmission assembly is different.
[0101] Referring to Figure 10 The axis of the slicing cutter barrel 30 of the slicing unit of the embodiment extends horizontally, and of course, it can also be other ways of arrangement with the axis inclined relative to the horizontal plane. The second gear transmission assembly corresponds to the omission of the tenth gear 343 and the eleventh gear 344. One end of the slicing cutter barrel 30 is rotatably connected to the end of the second support shaft 3420. The other end of the slicing cutter barrel 30 of the embodiment is used as the second discharge port 32. Since the second discharge port 32 is suspended, in order to smoothly guide the food materials to the dicing inlet 110, the dicing inlet 110 of the dicing chamber 11 is also provided with an upwardly extending first material guiding hopper 35. The upper end of the first material guiding hopper 35 corresponds to the periphery of the second discharge port 32, so as to avoid the leakage of the sheet-shaped food materials from the second discharge port 32 of the slicing cutter barrel 30.
[0102] The caliber of the second end of the slicing cutter barrel 30 of the embodiment is larger than that of the first end, so that the slicing cutter barrel 30 as a whole is trumpet-shaped. The trumpet-shaped design of the slicing cutter barrel 30 also facilitates the discharge of the sheet-shaped food materials in the slicing cutter barrel 30. On the other hand, the design of the first material guiding flow channel 141 of the embodiment is basically the same as that of embodiment 1. Further, a vertical plane that passes through the axis of the slicing cutter barrel 30 is referred to as a first vertical plane 33. The first vertical plane 33 divides the slicing cutter barrel 30 in the rotating process into a first region 331 that rotates downward and a second region 332 that rotates upward. The outlet of the first material guiding flow channel 141 is opposite to the first region 331 of the slicing cutter barrel 30. Since the axis of the slicing cutter barrel 30 extends horizontally, and the cutting direction of the slicing cutter barrel 30 and the direction of the gravity of the food materials are in the same direction, the automatic feeding of the food materials is achieved, so that it is not necessary to additionally provide a pressing component to press the feeding process of the food materials.
[0103] Embodiment 3
[0104] Referring to Figures 12-15 The difference between the dicing machine of the embodiment and the dicing machine of embodiment 1 is that the structure of the slicing unit is different and the corresponding gear transmission assembly is different.
[0105] The slicing unit of the embodiment is a knife holder structure for reciprocating slicing. Specifically, the slicing unit of the embodiment includes a slicing knife holder 41, which is a horizontally extending plate structure and is slidingly arranged at the top of the cubing chamber 11. The top of the cubing chamber 11 has two limiting sliding grooves 113 extending in the left-right direction and spaced apart in the front-rear direction, and the front-rear sides of the slicing knife holder 41 are slidingly constrained in the two limiting sliding grooves 113, respectively. The slicing knife holder 41 is provided with a third sheet food material inlet 42 extending in the front-rear direction, and the third sheet food material inlet 42 is provided with a third slicing knife 43, the cutting edge of which is exposed outside the top edge of the third sheet food material inlet 42. Thus, the third slicing knife 43 can slice food materials during the movement of the slicing knife holder 41.
[0106] The machine body 10 is also provided with a slicing hopper 40 extending downward from the top feeding port 100, and the slicing knife holder 41 is located at the bottom of the slicing hopper 40. The bottom port of the slicing hopper 40 is also opposite to the cubing inlet 110 at the top of the cubing chamber 11, and the sheet food material sliced by the third slicing knife 43 can fall through the third sheet food material inlet 42 to the cubing inlet 110 at the top of the cubing chamber 11.
[0107] The slicing knife holder 41 also has a connecting rod 443 extending horizontally rearward, and the second end of the connecting rod 442 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 443. When the driving motor 21 operates, the first gear transmission assembly 22 can drive the seventh gear 441 to rotate, and then the connecting rod 442 drives the slicing knife holder 41 to reciprocate left and right, thereby realizing the slicing of food materials.
[0108] Embodiment 4
[0109] Referring to Figures 16-19 , another cubing machine is shown. The cubing machine of the embodiment is different from the cubing machine in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the slicing unit and the corresponding gear transmission assembly are different.
[0110] The slicing unit of the embodiment adopts a cutter disc type slicing structure. Specifically, the slicing device includes a slicing cutter disc 50. The slicing cutter disc 50 is vertically arranged, that is, the axis of the slicing cutter disc 50 extends horizontally. The middle part of the slicing cutter disc 50 is rotationally connected to the machine body 10 through a third transmission shaft 51 and is in transmission connection with the first gear transmission assembly 22 through a third gear transmission assembly. The third gear transmission assembly includes a twelfth gear 54 and a thirteenth gear 55. The twelfth gear 54 is rotationally connected to the machine body 10 through a third support shaft 541 and is in meshing connection with the first gear 221 located below. The twelfth gear 54 is located above the eleventh gear 344 and is rotationally connected to the machine body 10 through a fourth support shaft 551. The twelfth gear 54 is in meshing connection with the eleventh gear 344. The slicing cutter disc 50 is coaxially arranged with the twelfth gear 54 and is specifically arranged at the end of the fourth support shaft 551. When the driving motor 21 is in operation, power can be transmitted to the third gear 223 assembly through the first gear transmission assembly 22 to drive the slicing cutter disc 50 to rotate.
[0111] The two side walls of the slicing cutter disc 50 are respectively an inlet side 501 and an outlet side 502. A second sheet-shaped food material inlet 52 is formed in the slicing cutter disc 50 and extends through the inlet side 501 to the outlet side 502. In the embodiment, two second sheet-shaped food material inlets 52 are formed and extend along the radial direction of the slicing cutter disc 50. A second slicing cutter 53 is arranged at the second sheet-shaped food material inlet 52. Specifically, the cutting edge of the second slicing cutter slightly protrudes from the side wall surface of the inlet side 501 of the slicing cutter disc 50. Thus, during the rotation of the cutter disc, the slicing processing of the food material can be realized.
[0112] Since the slicing belt disc is vertically arranged, in order to smoothly guide the sliced food material to the dicing inlet 110, the dicing chamber 11 further has a second material guiding hopper 56 extending upward at the dicing inlet 110. The upper end of the second material guiding hopper 56 corresponds to the periphery of the slicing cutter disc 50 to avoid the leakage of the sliced sheet-shaped food material.
[0113] Referring to Figure 19 The machine body 10 of the embodiment further has a second material guiding flow channel 142 extending downward from the feeding port 100 and inclined to the inlet side 501 of the slicing cutter disc 50. The outlet of the second material guiding flow channel 142 is opposite to the slicing cutter disc 50. When the user feeds the food material into the second material guiding flow channel 142, the food material can abut against the inlet side 501 of the slicing cutter disc 50. The rotation of the slicing cutter disc 50 can realize the slicing processing of the food material.
[0114] The “transmission connection” referred to in the present application refers to the direct connection between two components or the indirect connection through a transmission mechanism.
