Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, specifically an egg slicer. Background Technology
[0002] To make cooked egg products more convenient for people to eat, or to allow food factories to cut cooked egg products into pieces and add them to food to enhance flavor, it is often necessary to cut or divide the eggs into small pieces or slices. Egg slicers are often used in conjunction with multiple sets of slicing blades to complete the slicing or cutting of cooked egg products.
[0003] In existing egg slicing machines, after the cooked eggs have been shelled, they are placed in a placement tank. A slicing blade moves downwards along a groove in the tank to slice the egg into multiple pieces. However, because cooked eggs retain a certain degree of elasticity and flexibility, during slicing, the egg surface may crack or splinter as the top is cut. Furthermore, the stickiness of the yolk after cooking causes significant friction and adhesion at the yolk contact surface as the blade rises, easily causing some yolk to fly out and detach after slicing. This results in scattered and disordered slices with poor integrity, surface defects, and broken fragments on the slicing table. Ultimately, the quality of the slices is generally poor, with a certain number of defective pieces, leading to unsatisfactory results.
[0004] Furthermore, in existing egg slicing machines, after slicing eggs into a placement trough, the sliced eggs need to be collected to facilitate the next round of slicing. However, the actual removal of sliced eggs from the placement trough is troublesome, and due to the slicing process, some sliced eggs still fly out or pop out outside the placement trough. Sliced eggs located outside the placement trough also require additional collection. Egg fragments that fall outside due to ejection or other reasons need to be cleaned separately. If cleaning is not done in time, spoilage may occur. However, the actual cleaning workload is large, which greatly reduces the actual production and processing efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0016] 1. This invention utilizes a gas supply mechanism to provide powered air, and in conjunction with a control valve for directional control, causes the top cover to flip open when placing eggs, allowing the eggs to be placed in the bottom cover. After placement, the elastic return of the spring in the transverse mechanism causes the top cover to quickly flip back and cover the bottom cover. Furthermore, the fitting grooves on the outer surfaces of the top and bottom covers, and the elastic pad connected to the inner surface of the top cover, ensure that the upper outer side of the egg is cushioned and protected during placement. This prevents the egg from expanding and breaking when the slicing blade descends, and simultaneously limits and blocks the upward movement of the slicing blade. The stickiness and friction of the egg yolk cause some slices of egg to shift upwards, improving cushioning and limiting during slicing, greatly improving slicing quality, and preventing expansion and breakage under downward slicing pressure and friction and pulling during upward slicing. The invention offers excellent performance.
[0017] 2. This invention utilizes adapter grooves on both the top and bottom covers, and features a flip-controllable top cover. During egg slicing, the slicing blade ensures that both downward cutting and upward separation are performed within the adapter grooves, allowing for side scraping. This side scraping prevents attached yolk from being flung out during vertical movement, and avoids subsequent cleaning of the slicing blade. This avoids additional cleaning work by preventing yolk fragments from spilling down, and by removing the yolk, only the top and bottom covers need cleaning, preventing cuts during blade cleaning. This reduces cleaning workload and improves cleaning safety, avoiding frequent cleaning of the sharp slicing blade and preventing the yolk-attached blade from becoming too thick for subsequent slicing, thus ensuring slicing stability.
[0018] 3. This invention utilizes a set of gas supply mechanisms in conjunction with control valves to control the direction of gas supply, thereby enabling separate control of the actions of two sets of transverse mechanisms. When feeding is required, gas is introduced into the upper transverse mechanism to control the opening and resetting of the top cover, facilitating the switching between feeding and slicing states. It is convenient to operate for processing multiple sets of eggs. Furthermore, when gas is introduced into the lower transverse mechanism, the bottom cover is flipped over. During feeding, it remains flipped to a horizontal state. During discharge and collection, the air pressure in the lower transverse mechanism is released to achieve resetting and flipping. When the bottom cover flips downward, the eggs are quickly discharged after internal slicing. The operation is convenient and the effect is good. Attached Figure Description

[0029] 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 only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the 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.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides an egg slicer, including a frame 1. A first electric push rod 2 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the inner surface of the frame 1. A mounting plate 3 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the first electric push rod 2. A slicing blade 4 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 3. A side plate 5 is fixedly mounted on the front of the frame 1. A worktable 6 is fixedly mounted on the front of the side plate 5. A positioning seat 7 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the worktable 6. A bottom opening 8 is provided on the bottom surface of the worktable 6. A first shaft is rotatably sleeved inside the positioning seat 7. Shaft 9 and shaft 10 are located on either side of bottom opening 8. Connecting plate 11 and connecting plate 12 are fixedly fitted onto the outer surfaces of shaft 9 and shaft 10, respectively. Bottom cover 13 and top cover 14 are fixedly installed on the end faces of connecting plate 11 and connecting plate 12, respectively. Top cover 14 is larger than bottom cover 13 and is located directly above bottom cover 13. Adaptor grooves 15 are provided on the outer surfaces of both bottom cover 13 and top cover 14. A first gear 17 and a second gear 18 are fixedly sleeved on the outer surfaces of shaft 10 and shaft 11, respectively. An elastic pad 16 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the inner surface of the top cover 14. The elastic pad 16 and the adapter groove 15 are staggered. A mounting frame 19 is fixedly connected to the front of the worktable 6. There are two mounting frames 19. A first gear plate 20 and a second gear plate 21 are slidably sleeved between the two mounting frames 19. The first gear plate 20 and the second gear plate 21 are located at the bottom and top, respectively. The gear plate 21 is meshed with the first gear 17 and the second gear 18 respectively. A transverse movement mechanism 24 is fixedly sleeved inside a mounting frame 19. There are two transverse movement mechanisms 24. The movable ends of the two transverse movement mechanisms 24 are fixedly connected to the first gear plate 20 and the second gear plate 21 respectively. An air supply mechanism 23 is provided in front of the workbench 6. The outer ends of the two transverse movement mechanisms 24 are fixedly connected to a control valve 25. The control valve 25 is connected to the air supply mechanism 23. A positioning mechanism 26 is provided on the top of the workbench 6.
[0031] First embodiment: When egg slicing is required, the gas supply mechanism 23 is activated, causing the air pump 232 in the gas supply mechanism 23 to introduce gas into the control valve 25 through the air pipe 233. The control valve 25 is operated, so that the control valve 25 is simultaneously connected to the lower transverse mechanism 24 and the upper transverse mechanism 24, thereby allowing the gas to be supplied through the control valve 25 into both sets of transverse mechanisms 24. As the gas is introduced, it pushes the internal movable plug 242 to move laterally, thereby compressing the spring 244 and driving the push rod 243 to move laterally. This causes the two sets of push rods 243 to drive the corresponding second gear plate 21 and first gear plate 20 to move laterally. The second gear plate 21 and first gear plate 20 move laterally and drive the meshing second gear 18 and first gear 17 to rotate, thereby causing the second shaft 10 and first shaft 9 to drive the top cover 14 and bottom cover 13 to rotate, causing the top cover 14 to flip open and the bottom cover 13 to flip to a horizontal position. This activates the positioning mechanism 26, causing the second electric push rod 262 to drive the positioning rod 265 to insert into the positioning hole 27 of the first shaft 9. The system maintains stability and places the cooked egg inside the bottom cover 13. Then, the control valve 25 keeps the lower horizontal movement mechanism 24 sealed, while simultaneously shutting off the gas supply mechanism 23. As the air pressure in the upper horizontal movement mechanism 24 decreases and the internal spring 244 elastically resets, the top cover 14 flips back to its original position and covers the top of the bottom cover 13. Simultaneously, the elastic pad 16 inside the top cover 14 adheres to the outside of the egg. The first electric push rod 2 is activated, causing the mounting plate 3 to move downwards, allowing the multiple slicing blades 4 to... The slicing blade 4 moves downward and is inserted into the adapter groove 15 at the top of the top cover 14. At the same time, it slices the egg product downward. When the surface of the egg product expands and deforms outward, it is supported and blocked by the outer elastic pad 16. As the slicing blade 4 moves to the bottom cover 13, the downward slicing is completed. As the slicing blade 4 moves upward, some of the sliced egg product moves upward under the action of friction and is blocked and limited by the elastic pad 16. This allows the slicing blade 4 to move upward steadily and scrape off the egg product fragments attached to the surface of the slicing blade 4 along the inner side of the adapter groove 15, thus completing the slicing.
[0032] First, by using the air supply mechanism 23 to provide power air and cooperating with the control valve 25 for directional control, the top cover 14 flips open when placing the egg, and the egg is placed in the bottom cover 13. After placement, the spring 244 in the transverse mechanism 24 elastically resets, causing the top cover 14 to quickly flip back and cover the top of the bottom cover 13. In conjunction with the adaptation grooves 15 opened on the outer surfaces of the top cover 14 and the bottom cover 13, and the elastic pads 16 connected in the inner surface of the top cover 14, the upper outer side of the egg is buffered and protected by the elastic pads 16 when it is placed. This prevents the egg from expanding and breaking when the slicing blade 4 cuts downwards, and at the same time, it achieves a limiting and blocking effect when the slicing blade 4 moves upwards. The stickiness and friction of the egg yolk cause the local sliced egg to be carried upwards and deflected, improving the buffering and limiting during the slicing process, greatly improving the slicing quality, and avoiding expansion and breakage under the pressure of downward slicing and breakage under friction and pulling when the slice moves upwards. The effect is good.
[0033] Furthermore, by utilizing the adapter grooves 15 on both the top cover 14 and the bottom cover 13, and by employing the flip-controllable top cover 14, during the actual egg slicing process, the slicing blade 4 ensures that both downward cutting and upward separation are completed within the adapter groove 15, thus preventing the attached egg yolk from being flung out during vertical movement. This also eliminates the need for subsequent cleaning of the slicing blade 4. On one hand, it avoids the additional cleaning workload caused by the spillage of attached egg yolk fragments. On the other hand, by scraping off the attached egg yolk, only the top cover 14 and the bottom cover 13 need to be cleaned, avoiding cuts during the cleaning of the slicing blade 4. This reduces cleaning workload and further improves cleaning safety, avoiding frequent cleaning of the sharp slicing blade 4. It also prevents the blade from being affected by increased thickness during the next slicing due to the attached egg yolk, which could affect the stability of the slice.
[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the bottom cover 13 and the top cover 14 are both located above the bottom opening 8. The first gear 17 and the second gear 18 are located in the same vertical plane. The adapter groove 15 is adapted to the shape of the slicing blade 4. The bottom surface of the first toothed plate 20 and the top surface of the second toothed plate 21 are both fixedly connected to the clamping plate 22. The mounting frame 19 has a clamping groove 29 inside. The inner surface of the clamping groove 29 is slidably sleeved with the clamping plate 22. The first toothed plate 20 is located below the first gear 17, and the second toothed plate 21 is located above the second gear 18. The first toothed plate 20 and the second toothed plate 21 have the same length and are greater than the distance between the two sets of mounting frames 19.
[0035] During use, by utilizing the bottom opening 8, the actual bottom cover 13 has sufficient space to flip, ensuring that the material can be discharged when flipped from the bottom opening 8. Furthermore, by utilizing the adapter groove 15 to adapt to the shape of the slicing blade 4, it is convenient for the slicing blade 4 to be inserted while the surface is scraped and cleaned. By utilizing the sliding connection of the clamping plate 22 and the clamping groove 29, and in conjunction with the upper and lower distributed second toothed plate 21 and first toothed plate 20, the sliding stability is maintained, and by controlling the actual length, a sufficiently stable sliding distance is provided.
[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the transverse movement mechanism 24 includes a mounting tube 241, a movable plug 242, a push rod 243, and a spring 244. The mounting tube 241 is fixedly sleeved inside the mounting frame 19, the movable plug 242 is movably sleeved inside the mounting tube 241, the push rod 243 is fixedly connected to the end face of the movable plug 242, and the push rod 243 is movably sleeved inside the mounting tube 241. The outer ends of the two sets of push rods 243 are fixedly connected to the first toothed plate 20 and the second toothed plate 21, respectively. The spring 244 is fixedly connected inside the mounting tube 241 and fixedly connected to the movable plug 242. The spring 244 is sleeved on the outside of the push rod 243. The air supply mechanism 23 includes a base plate 231, an air pump 232, and an air pipe 233. The base plate 231 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the workbench 6, the air pump 232 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 231, and the air pipe 233 is fixedly connected between the air pump 232 and the control valve 25.
[0037] During use, the rotation control of the top cover 14 and the bottom cover 13 is achieved by using two sets of transverse mechanisms 24 respectively, and the elasticity of the spring 244 can be quickly restored after depressurization. By using the air supply mechanism 23 to provide power air, the air pressure in the transverse mechanism 24 is enhanced, thereby achieving transverse movement.
[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 9As shown, the positioning mechanism 26 includes an assembly frame 261, a second electric push rod 262, an assembly plate 263, a positioning plate 264, a positioning rod 265, and a cross slide plate 266. The assembly frame 261 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the workbench 6, the second electric push rod 262 is fixedly installed on the side of the assembly frame 261, the assembly plate 263 is fixedly installed on the movable end of the second electric push rod 262, the positioning plate 264 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the assembly plate 263, and the positioning rod 265 is fixedly connected to the side of the positioning plate 264. On the top, the cross slide plate 266 is fixedly connected to the front of the positioning plate 264. The outer surface of the first shaft 9 is provided with a positioning hole 27. There are two positioning seats 7. A cross slide groove 28 is provided on the side of one positioning seat 7. The inner surface of the cross slide groove 28 is movably sleeved with the cross slide plate 266. The inner diameter of the positioning hole 27 is larger than the diameter of the positioning rod 265. The number of positioning holes 27 and positioning rods 265 is the same. The positioning holes 27 and positioning rods 265 are alternately distributed. The positioning rods 265 are horizontally located on one side of the positioning hole 27.
[0039] During use, the positioning mechanism 26 controls the movement of the positioning rod 265. When slicing is required, as the bottom cover 13 flips to a horizontal position, the second electric push rod 262 in the positioning mechanism 26 drives the positioning plate 264 and the positioning rod 265 to move laterally, thereby allowing the positioning rod 265 to be inserted into the positioning hole 27 of the first shaft 9, thus achieving positioning. This prevents the bottom cover 13 from swinging when the slicing knife 4 moves downward to slice, ensuring convenient material discharge and further improving stability during slicing. Furthermore, the sliding connection between the cross groove 28 and the cross slide plate 266 ensures stability during the lateral movement of the positioning mechanism 26, preventing deviation.
[0040] Second embodiment: After slicing a group of eggs, as the slicing blade 4 moves upward, the control valve 25 is operated again to fully open the control valve 25, thereby connecting the lower transverse mechanism 24 and depressurizing through the unactivated air supply mechanism 23. At the same time, the positioning mechanism 26 is activated to move the positioning rod 265 out of the positioning hole 27. After depressurization, the spring 244 in the lower transverse mechanism 24 returns to its original position and drives the push rod 243 and the first toothed plate 20 to transversely return to their original position, causing the meshing first gear 17 to rotate and drive the bottom cover 13 to flip downward, causing the sliced eggs inside to flip downward and fall, completing the convenient discharge and collection.
[0041] First, by using a set of air supply mechanisms 23 in conjunction with control valves 25 to control the direction of air supply, the two sets of transverse mechanisms 24 can be controlled to operate independently. When feeding is required, gas is introduced into the upper transverse mechanism 24 to control the opening and resetting of the top cover 14, enabling convenient switching between feeding and slicing states. This is convenient for processing multiple sets of eggs. When gas is introduced into the lower transverse mechanism 24, the bottom cover 13 is flipped. During feeding, it is kept flipped to a horizontal state. During discharge and collection, the air pressure in the lower transverse mechanism 24 is released to reset and flip it. When the bottom cover 13 flips downward, the eggs are quickly discharged after internal slicing. The operation is convenient and the effect is good.
[0042] Working principle and usage process: When egg slicing is required, the gas supply mechanism 23 is activated, causing the air pump 232 in the gas supply mechanism 23 to introduce gas into the control valve 25 through the air pipe 233. Operating the control valve 25 connects it to both the lower and upper transverse mechanisms 24, allowing the gas to be supplied through the control valve 25 to the two sets of transverse mechanisms 24. As the gas enters, it pushes the internal movable plug 242 to move laterally, thereby compressing the spring 244 and simultaneously driving the push rod 243 to move laterally. This causes the two sets of push rods 243 to respectively drive the corresponding second toothed plate 21 and first toothed plate 20 to move laterally. The meshing gears 18 and 17 rotate, causing shafts 10 and 9 to rotate the top cover 14 and bottom cover 13 respectively. This causes the top cover 14 to flip open while the bottom cover 13 flips to a horizontal position. The positioning mechanism 26 is activated, causing the electric push rod 262 to drive the positioning rod 265 into the positioning hole 27 of shaft 9, maintaining stability and placing the cooked egg inside the bottom cover 13. The control valve 25 then keeps the lower transverse mechanism 24 sealed while the gas supply mechanism 23 is shut off. As the air pressure in the upper transverse mechanism 24 decreases and the internal spring 244 elastically returns to its original position, the top cover 14 flips open again. The top cover 14 is positioned on top of the bottom cover 13, while the elastic pad 16 inside the top cover 14 adheres to the outside of the egg. The first electric push rod 2 is activated, causing the mounting plate 3 to move downwards, resulting in multiple slicing blades 4 moving downwards and inserting into the adapter groove 15 at the top of the top cover 14. Simultaneously, the blades slice the egg downwards. As the egg surface expands and deforms outwards, it is supported and blocked by the outer elastic pad 16. As the slicing blades 4 move below the bottom cover 13, the downward slicing is completed. As the slicing blades 4 move upwards, some of the sliced egg moves upwards under friction and is blocked and limited by the elastic pad 16, allowing the slicing blades 4 to move steadily upwards and slice the egg along the inner side of the adapter groove 15. Egg scraps on the surface of the slicing blade 4 are scraped off to complete slicing. After slicing a set of eggs, as the slicing blade 4 moves upward, the control valve 25 is operated again to fully open the control valve 25, thereby connecting the lower transverse mechanism 24 and depressurizing through the unactivated air supply mechanism 23. At the same time, the positioning mechanism 26 is activated to move the positioning rod 265 out of the positioning hole 27. After depressurization, the spring 244 in the lower transverse mechanism 24 returns to its original position and drives the push rod 243 and the first toothed plate 20 to move and return to their original position. This causes the meshing first gear 17 to rotate and drives the bottom cover 13 to flip downward, causing the sliced eggs inside to fall downward and complete the convenient discharge and collection.
