Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of food processing, and particularly to a toe-clipping machine. Background Art

[0002] Poultry claws such as chicken feet are currently popular foods among consumers. To facilitate consumption by consumers, toenails are trimmed during the processing of these foods.

[0003] In related technologies, a toe-clipping machine is used to trim the claws to be trimmed. During the toe-clipping process of the claws to be trimmed, the claws to be trimmed are placed on the mold base of the toe-clipping machine.

[0004] Taking chicken feet as an example, due to the special shape of chicken feet, the rear toes and the three front toes of chicken feet cannot be completely flattened and placed on the same working surface. During the toe-clipping process, the chicken feet cannot be completely flattened, and the large differences in the placement postures of chicken feet on the mold base will affect the subsequent toe-clipping effect; at the same time, the positions of the rear toes of the left chicken feet and the right chicken feet are different, and the mold base needs to be provided with a receiving groove that can simultaneously accommodate the rear toes of the left chicken feet and the right chicken feet, making the structure of the mold base relatively complex; in addition, the chicken feet after toe-clipping are not easy to remove from the mold base, the operation is rather cumbersome, and the work efficiency is low. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present disclosure provides a toe-clipping machine with good toe-clipping effect, relatively simple structure of the mold base, high work efficiency, and simple operation.

[0006] According to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a toe-clipping machine, including:

[0007] A mold base having a working surface for placing the claws to be trimmed, the working surface having a receiving hole and a receiving groove, the receiving groove being configured to place the three front toes and the claw surface of the claws to be trimmed, the receiving hole penetrating the bottom surface of the receiving groove, the receiving hole being configured to place the rear toes of the claws to be trimmed, and the receiving hole penetrating the side surface of the mold base, the side surface being adjacent to the working surface.

[0008] According to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, when the chicken feet are placed on the mold base, the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken feet are located in the receiving groove, and the rear toes of the chicken feet are located in the receiving hole. In this way, it is not necessary to flatten the entire chicken feet, which can make the posture of the chicken feet consistent with the natural state. At the same time, the postures of the chicken feet placed using this mold base have small differences, which can improve the subsequent toe-clipping effect. And the mold base provided by the present disclosure only needs to be provided with one receiving hole for placing the rear toes, and both the left chicken feet and the right chicken feet can be placed in the mold base, without the need to provide two structures for placing the rear toes, and the structure of the mold base is simpler. And the receiving hole penetrates the side surface of the mold base, and the rear toes can be directly taken out from the receiving hole through the side surface of the mold base, with simple operation and higher work efficiency.

[0009] It should be understood that the content described in this section is not intended to identify the key or important features of the embodiments of the present disclosure, nor is it used to limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Detailed implementation manners

[0032] The following describes exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings. Various details of the embodiments of the present disclosure are included to assist understanding, and they should be considered merely exemplary. Therefore, those of ordinary skill in the art should recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. Similarly, for clarity and conciseness, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description.

[0033] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the use of terms such as "first", "second", etc. to describe various elements does not intend to limit the positional relationship, temporal relationship or importance relationship of these elements. Such terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. In some examples, the first element and the second element may refer to the same instance of the element, while in some cases, based on the description of the context, they may also refer to different instances. In some examples, "connection" may include "direct connection" and may also include "indirect connection".

[0034] In the present disclosure, the "vertical direction" is substantially parallel to the direction of gravity, and the "horizontal direction" is perpendicular to the "vertical direction". The terms used in the description of various examples in the present disclosure are only for the purpose of describing specific examples and are not intended to be limiting. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, if the number of elements is not specifically limited, the element may be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" used in the present disclosure covers any one of the listed items and all possible combinations.

[0035] In the related art, a toe clipper includes a die base. Taking chicken feet as an example, when trimming the toes of chicken feet, the staff will place the chicken feet on the die base and then trim the chicken feet placed on the die base. Due to the special shape of chicken feet, the chicken feet cannot be fully flattened during the toe trimming process, which affects the subsequent toe trimming effect; and the structure of the die base is relatively complex; the chicken feet after toe trimming are not easy to be removed from the die base, the operation is relatively cumbersome, and the work efficiency is low.

[0036] To solve the above problems, the present disclosure provides a toe clipper, which includes a die base. The die base has a working surface for placing the claw part to be trimmed. The working surface has a receiving hole and a receiving groove. The receiving groove is configured to place the three front toes and the claw surface of the claw part to be trimmed. The receiving hole penetrates the bottom surface of the receiving groove. The receiving hole is configured to place the rear toe of the claw part to be trimmed, and the receiving hole penetrates the side surface of the die base, and the side surface is adjacent to the working surface.

[0037] For the toe clipper provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, taking chicken feet as an example, after the chicken feet are placed on the die base, the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken feet are located in the receiving groove, and the rear toe of the chicken feet is located in the receiving hole. In this way, it is not necessary to flatten the entire chicken feet, which can make the shape of the chicken feet consistent with the natural state. At the same time, the shape difference of the chicken feet placed using this die base is small, which can improve the subsequent toe trimming effect. And the die base provided by the present disclosure only needs to be provided with one receiving hole for placing the rear toe. Whether it is a left chicken foot or a right chicken foot, it can be placed in the die base. It is not necessary to provide two structures for placing the rear toe, and the structure of the die base is simpler. And the receiving hole penetrates the side surface of the die base, and the rear toe can be directly taken out from the receiving hole through the side surface of the die base, the operation is simple, and the work efficiency is higher.

[0038] Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a toe clipper according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 2 A front view of a toe clipper according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 3 A top view of a toe clipper according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the toe clipper includes a die base 10. The die base 10 has a working surface 101 for placing the claw part to be trimmed. The working surface 101 has a receiving hole 11 and a receiving groove 13. The receiving groove 13 is configured to place the three front toes and the claw surface of the claw part to be trimmed. The receiving hole 11 penetrates the bottom surface of the receiving groove 13. The receiving hole 11 is configured to place the rear toe of the claw part to be trimmed, and the receiving hole 11 penetrates the side surface 102 of the die base 10. The side surface 102 is adjacent to the working surface 101.

[0040] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the claw part to be trimmed may include any one of chicken claws and the claw parts of other poultry or birds. There are differences in the shapes of different types of claw parts to be trimmed. For different types of claw parts to be trimmed, the shape or size of the die base 10 can be changed so that the die base 10 can be used to place the claw parts to be trimmed of the same type that need toe trimming. For the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present disclosure, the following explanations will be described by taking chicken claws as an example. It can be understood that the toe clipper in the embodiments of the present disclosure can also be used for toe trimming of the claw parts of other poultry.

[0041] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the working surface 101 of the die base 10 is used to place the chicken claws to improve the stability of the chicken claws during the toe trimming process, reduce the movement of the chicken claws during the toe trimming process, and thus improve the toe trimming quality.

[0042] It should be noted that the toes of the chicken claws mentioned in the embodiments of the present disclosure are the four branches of the chicken claws, and the toenails are the plate-like structures at the front ends of the toes. The toe clipper in the embodiments of the present disclosure is used to trim the toenails of the chicken claws.

[0043] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the receiving hole 11 penetrates the side surface of the die base 10. It can be understood that at the side surface of the receiving hole 11, the receiving hole 11 communicates with the outside of the die base 10, or it can be understood that the receiving hole 11 is a through groove so that the rear toe of the chicken claw located outside the die base 10 can enter the receiving hole 11 through the side surface of the receiving hole 11.

[0044] Exemplarily, the receiving hole 11 may penetrate the bottom surface of the receiving groove 13 along the vertical direction G.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a receiving groove 13 is provided to accommodate the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken claw, so that the four toes and the claw surface of the chicken claw can be placed in the mold base 10, thereby improving the stability of the chicken claw during the toe-cutting process.

[0046] Due to the different positions of the rear toes of the left chicken claw and the right chicken claw, in the related art, in order to enable the mold base to place both the left chicken claw and the right chicken claw, five positioning positions need to be set on the mold base, making the structure of the mold base relatively complex. At the same time, the staff also needs to select the placement position of the chicken claw according to the left chicken claw and the right chicken claw, increasing the toe-cutting time and resulting in low work efficiency.

[0047] For the toe-cutting machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the chicken claw is placed on the mold base 10, the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken claw are located in the receiving groove 13, and the rear toes of the chicken claw are located in the receiving hole 11. In this way, it is not necessary to flatten the entire chicken claw, and the shape of the chicken claw can be made consistent with its natural state. At the same time, the shape difference of the chicken claws placed using the mold base 10 is small, which can improve the subsequent toe-cutting effect. Moreover, the mold base 10 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure only needs to be provided with one receiving hole 11 for placing the rear toes, and both the left chicken claw and the right chicken claw can be placed in the mold base without setting two structures for placing the rear toes, making the structure of the mold base 10 simpler. And the receiving hole 11 penetrates through the side surface 102 of the mold base 10, and the rear toes can be directly taken out from the receiving hole 11 through the side surface 102 of the mold base 10, with simple operation and higher work efficiency.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, since the placement methods of the left chicken claw and the right chicken claw are the same, there is no need to select the placement position of the chicken claw, reducing the toe-cutting time and improving work efficiency.

[0049] Exemplarily, the shape of the receiving groove 13 is the same as the shape of the three front toes of the flattened chicken claw, so that the three front toes of the chicken claw can be cut separately.

[0050] Figure 4 Shows a schematic structural diagram of a toe-cutting machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the toe-cutting machine further includes a locking mechanism 20, and the locking mechanism 20 includes a driving member 21 and a locking member 22.

[0051] Figure 5 Shows a schematic structural diagram of the toe-cutting machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure from another perspective. Figure 6 Shows a top view of the toe-cutting machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 Shows a front view of the toe-cutting machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figures 5 to 7 , the driving member 21 is connected to the locking member 22, in combination with Figures 1 to 7, the driving member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 22 to move to abut against the rear toe of the claw to be sheared so that the claw to be sheared is fixed in the receiving hole 11, or to push the rear toe of the claw to be sheared so that the claw to be sheared disengages from the side surface 102 of the die base 10.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving member 21 may include a motor.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, during the movement of the locking member 22, it can move below or above the receiving hole 11, or can move out from below or above the die base 10.

[0054] Exemplarily, when the locking member 22 moves below or above the receiving hole 11, the rear toe of the chicken claw can be fixed in the receiving hole 11. When the locking member 22 moves out of the die base 10, the chicken claw disengages from the die base 10.

[0055] In the related art, after the chicken claw is toe-cut, the staff removes the toe-cut chicken claw from the die base. During the entire toe-cutting process of the chicken claw, the work is relatively complex and the work efficiency is low.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the rear toe of the chicken claw is placed in the locking member 22, the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to push the rear toe of the chicken claw, so that the rear toe of the chicken claw is fixed in the receiving hole 11 of the die base 10 for subsequent toe-cutting. After the toe-cutting is completed, the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to push the rear toe of the chicken claw, so that the chicken claw can disengage from the side surface 102 of the die base 10. There is no need for the staff to remove the chicken claw from the die base 10. The work is simple and the work efficiency is high.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the output shaft 211 of the driving member 21 is connected to the locking member 22. When the toe-cutting machine is in normal use, the output shaft 211 of the driving member 21 extends along the vertical direction G, and the central axis of the receiving hole 11 also extends along the vertical direction G. Then the moving direction of the locking member 22 is substantially parallel to the horizontal plane, wherein the horizontal plane is perpendicular to the vertical direction G, and the moving direction of the locking member 22 is the direction of the moving speed of the locking member 22 at any moment.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 22 to rotate, and the rotation axis of the locking member 22 intersects the working surface 101.

[0059] Exemplarily, the locking member 22 may be a rotating piece. The thickness of the rotating piece is relatively thin, so that the rotating piece can rotate below or above the receiving hole 11 and does not occupy too much space of the die base 10, which is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the toe-cutting machine.

[0060] See Figures 4 to 7, the toe clipper further includes a toe clipping mechanism 30 which is configured to clip the claws to be clipped placed on the die base 10. The toe clipping mechanism 30 clips the chicken claws, making the function of the whole toe clipper more perfect.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a first detection device which is configured to detect whether there is a rear toe of the claw to be clipped in the locking member 22, and the driving member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 22 to move based on the detection result of the first detection device. Wherein, the first detection device is located inside the toe clipper and is not shown in the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0062] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first detection device is used to detect whether there is a rear toe of the claw to be clipped in the locking member 22, and the driving member 21 can drive the locking member 22 to move based on the detection result of the first detection device, eliminating the need for manual operation of the driving member 21, which is more convenient and faster, and has higher work efficiency.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 is located on the side of the die base 10 opposite to the side where the working surface 101 is located. That is, when the toe clipper is working normally, during the movement of the locking member 22, it can move below the receiving hole 11 or move out from below the die base 10 to reduce the influence of the locking member 22 on the working surface 101 of the die base 10 during the movement.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 has a placement through slot 221 which is configured to be able to correspond to the position of the receiving hole 11 so that a part of the rear toe of the claw to be clipped can be located in the placement through slot 221.

[0065] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when no toe clipping is performed, the placement through slot 221 and the receiving hole 11 are misaligned, and the rear toe of the chicken claw can be placed in the placement through slot 221. When toe clipping is performed. The placement through slot 221 communicates with the receiving hole 11 so that the rear toe of the chicken claw can be fixed in the receiving hole 11.

[0066] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the placement through slot 221 penetrates through two opposite surfaces of the locking member 22, and the opening of the placement through slot 221 penetrates through one side surface of the locking member 22 so that the rear toe of the chicken claw can be put into the placement through slot 221, and when the locking member 22 removes the chicken claw from the die base 10 and the chicken claw is separated from the die base 10, the chicken claw can directly separate from the opening of the placement through slot 221. Exemplarily, the chicken claw can directly separate from the opening of the placement through slot 221 and enter the storage device, which is more convenient.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the rear toe of the chicken foot is placed in the placement through groove 221, the chicken foot will exert a pressure on the locking member 22. The first detection device can determine whether there is a rear toe of the chicken foot in the placement through groove 221 by detecting the force on the locking member 22.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 8 shows a schematic structural view of a locking mechanism according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 9 shows a front view of a locking mechanism according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 10 shows a top view of a locking mechanism according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figures 8 to 10 , the locking mechanism 20 further includes a blocking member 23 provided on the locking member 22. Combining Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the blocking member 23 is located on the side of the placement through groove 221 close to the receiving hole 11. Refer to Figures 4 to 7 , the mold base 10 further has a sliding channel 12. One end of the sliding channel 12 communicates with the receiving hole 11, and the other end of the sliding channel 12 penetrates into the mold base 10. When the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move, at least a part of the blocking member 23 is located in the sliding channel 12 and slides along the sliding channel 12.

[0069] Exemplarily, the sliding trajectory defined by the sliding channel 12 is substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the receiving hole 11.

[0070] Exemplarily, the blocking member 23 may include a blocking rod. One end of the blocking rod is connected to the locking member 22, and the other end of the blocking rod faces upward of the locking member 22 along the vertical direction G.

[0071] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the blocking member 23 is closer to the sliding channel 12 of the mold base 10 than the placement through groove 221.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, by providing the blocking member 23, when the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to push the rear toe of the chicken foot to separate the chicken foot from the mold base 10, the blocking member 23 can push the chicken foot to move, so that the chicken foot can more easily follow the locking member 22 to move, thereby more conveniently separating the chicken foot from the mold base 10. At the same time, in order to prevent the blocking member 23 from abutting against the mold base 10 and affecting the movement of the locking member 22 toward the inner side of the mold base 10, a sliding channel 12 is provided in the mold base 10. The blocking member 23 can enter the receiving hole 11 from the side of the receiving hole 11, and then enter the sliding channel 12 from the receiving hole 11. When the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move, the blocking member 23 slides along the sliding channel 12 to avoid affecting the movement of the locking member 22.

[0073] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when toe clipping is not performed, the blocking member 23 is located outside the die base 10 so that the toes of the chicken foot can contact the blocking member 23. Exemplarily, the position of the blocking member 23 on the locking member 22 can be set according to requirements, so that when the chicken foot is placed on the die base 10, the blocking member 23 is located between two adjacent front toes among the three front toes of the chicken foot, enabling the chicken foot to be placed on the die base 10 and the rear toe of the chicken foot to be inserted into the placement through groove 221. At the same time, two adjacent front toes among the three front toes of the chicken foot are connected, and the blocking member 23 can push the connection part of the chicken foot, thus making it more convenient to separate the chicken foot from the die base 10.

[0074] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first detection device is located inside the blocking member 23.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the chicken foot is placed on the locking member 22, the blocking member 23 is located between two adjacent front toes among the three front toes of the chicken foot. At this time, when the worker gives the chicken foot a thrust, the connection part of the chicken foot can give a thrust to the blocking member 23, so that the first detection device located inside the blocking member 23 senses the force, and the locking member 22 is controlled by the driving member 21 to move, so that the chicken foot is fixed on the die base 10.

[0076] See Figure 5 , in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a limiting member 24. One end of the limiting member 24 is connected to the free end of the blocking member 23, the other end of the limiting member 24 faces the placement through groove 221, and the extending direction of the limiting member 24 intersects with the extending direction of the blocking member 23.

[0077] Exemplarily, the limiting member 24 may include a limiting rod. One end of the limiting rod is connected to the blocking member 23, and the other end of the limiting rod is a free end.

[0078] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, after toe clipping is completed, when the locking member 22 moves outward, the limiting member 24 will also give a downward pressure to the chicken foot, so that the chicken foot can enter the storage device located below, which is more convenient.

[0079] Exemplarily, the extending direction of the limiting rod is perpendicular to the extending direction of the blocking rod.

[0080] See Figures 1 to 4 , in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a first baffle 25. The first baffle 25 covers the locking member 22. The first baffle 25 can be used to block the locking member 22 and can protect the locking member 22. Exemplarily, the first baffle 25 can be provided on both sides of the locking mechanism 20.

[0081] See Figures 8 to 10, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the placement through slot 221 is located on the locking member 22, and the blocking member 23 is also connected to the locking member 22. The placement through slot 221 on the locking member 22 and the blocking member 23 can be driven by the same driving member 21 to move, making the structure of the locking mechanism 20 simpler.

[0082] Figure 11 FIG. shows a partial schematic structural view of the toe clipper in another state according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 1 , 2 and Figure 11 , in some other embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 includes a connecting member 26 and a blocking member 23 connected to the connecting member 26. The blocking member 23 is located on a side of the placement through slot 221 close to the receiving hole 11. The driving member 21 is connected to the connecting member 26, and the driving member 21 is configured to drive the connecting member 26 to move so that the blocking member 23 can be located within the sliding channel 12 and slide along the sliding channel 12.

[0083] Exemplarily, the locking member 22 and the connecting member 26 can be driven to move by one driving member 21, or the locking mechanism 20 can include two driving members 21. One of the two driving members 21 is connected to the locking member 22, and the other of the two driving members 21 is connected to the connecting member 26.

[0084] During the locking process, the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to abut against the rear toe of the chicken foot so that the rear toe of the chicken foot is fixed in the receiving hole 11. At the same time, the chicken foot will also push the connecting member 26 to move, so that the limiting member 24 connected to the connecting member 26 slides along the sliding channel 12, avoiding affecting the movement of the chicken foot. After the toe clipping is completed, the driving member 21 drives the connecting member 26 to move so that the limiting member 24 on the connecting member 26 pushes the chicken foot to disengage from the side surface 102 of the die base 10. At the same time, the chicken foot will also push the locking member 22 to move, avoiding affecting the movement of the chicken foot.

[0085] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 and the limiting member 24 are separately arranged, so that the locking member 22 and the limiting member 24 can be separately driven without affecting each other, which is more convenient.

[0086] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 11 , in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the receiving groove 13 includes three sub-receiving grooves 131 corresponding to the three front toes one by one, and the other end of the sliding channel 12 is located between any two adjacent sub-receiving grooves 131.

[0087] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, arranging the other end of the sliding channel 12 between any two adjacent sub-receiving grooves 131 does not require changing the shape of the die base 10.

[0088] Figure 12 A structural schematic diagram of a toe trimmer according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 13 A schematic structural diagram of a toe trimmer according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown at another viewing angle. Figure 14 A front view of a toe trimmer according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 15 A left side view of a toe trimmer according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 16 FIG. 2 shows a top view of a toe trimmer according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figures 12 to 16 The toe trimming machine further comprises a positioning mechanism 40. The positioning mechanism 40 is configured to fix the chicken claw to the mold base 10.

[0089] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the toe clipping mechanism 30 may provide thrust to the chicken claw during the toe clipping process, and the positioning mechanism 40 provides pressure to the chicken claw located on the mold base 10 to achieve positioning of the chicken claw and fix the chicken claw on the mold base 10. When the toe clipping mechanism 30 provides thrust to the chicken claw, the chicken claw will not move, so that the toe clipping work can be carried out smoothly.

[0090] Exemplarily, the positioning mechanism 40 can be used to fix the chicken claw in the receiving groove 13 of the mold base 10.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the toe clipping is not performed, the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 are staggered, so that the receiving groove 13 on the mold base 10 is not blocked, and the chicken claw can move to the receiving groove 13. And when the toe clipping is not performed, there is a certain distance between the mold base 10 and the toe clipping mechanism 30, which is convenient for placing the chicken claw and reduces the possibility of the toe clipping mechanism 30 scratching the staff. When the toe clipping is not performed, the relative position of the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 is certain, so that when the positioning mechanism 40 positions the chicken claw placed on the mold base 10, the positioning mechanism 40 and the mold base 10 can be close to each other, and there is no need to adjust the position of the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 according to the placement position of the chicken claw. Exemplarily, the positioning mechanism 40 and the mold base 10 approaching each other can make the positioning mechanism 40 move toward the mold base 10, or it can drive the mold base 10 to move toward the positioning mechanism 40, or it can drive the positioning mechanism 40 and the mold base 10 to move toward each other.

[0092] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 is configured to apply pressure to the chicken feet placed on the mold base 10 to fix and flatten the chicken feet.

[0093] Chicken feet are not necessarily flat in their natural state and have a certain degree of curvature. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, by applying pressure to the chicken feet, the chicken feet can be fixed and flattened. Moreover, the flattened chicken feet have a larger contact area with the positioning mechanism 40, resulting in a better fixing effect. At the same time, for the flattened chicken feet, the difference in their shapes is smaller, and the orientations of several toes of the chicken feet are basically the same. When the toe trimming mechanism 30 moves in a preset direction, it is easier to contact the toenails of the chicken feet, thereby reducing the toe trimming time and improving the toe trimming efficiency.

[0094] Meanwhile, after the chicken feet are flattened, since the difference in the shapes of the chicken feet is reduced, the error during toe trimming of the chicken feet by the toe trimming mechanism 30 will be smaller, improving the toe trimming effect.

[0095] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 12 to 16 , the positioning mechanism 40 includes a toe positioning component 41, and the toe positioning component 41 includes a plurality of pressing plates 411 stacked together. The plurality of pressing plates 411 are configured to apply pressure to the toes of the chicken feet to fix and flatten the toes.

[0096] Exemplarily, the plurality of pressing plates 411 are all arranged along the vertical direction G.

[0097] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the toe positioning component 41 is used to position the toes of the chicken feet. The toes of the chicken feet also have a certain degree of curvature, and it is easier to fix the chicken feet after flattening the toes of the chicken feet. Since the lengths of the toes of the chicken feet are different, the length of the positioning of the chicken feet by the toe positioning component 41 can be adjusted by changing the number of pressing plates 411 pressing on the chicken feet, so that the toe positioning component 41 can be adapted to different chicken feet.

[0098] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the number of the pressing plates 411 can be set according to requirements. Exemplarily, the number of the pressing plates 411 is greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 15.

[0099] In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 may include a positioning block, and the chicken feet can be flattened and fixed by applying pressure to the chicken feet through the positioning block.

[0100] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 17 shows a schematic structural diagram of a pressing plate according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figure 17 , one side of the pressing plate 411 close to the die base 10 ( Figure 17 not shown) has a positioning portion 4111, and the positioning portion 4111 is configured to correspond to the position where the toes of the chicken feet are located when the pressing plate 411 applies pressure to the toes of the chicken feet, so that the toes are fixed within the positioning portion 4111.

[0101] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a positioning portion 4111 is provided on the pressing piece 411 so that the toes of the chicken claw can be fixed within the positioning portion 4111, further improving the positioning effect of the toe positioning assembly 41 for the toes of the chicken claw.

[0102] Exemplarily, the positioning portion 4111 may include a positioning notch on the pressing piece 411.

[0103] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 includes a plurality of toe positioning assemblies 41 corresponding one-to-one to the plurality of toes of the chicken claw, and each toe positioning assembly 41 is configured to apply pressure to the corresponding toe through a plurality of pressing pieces 411.

[0104] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the plurality of toes of the chicken claw are respectively positioned by the corresponding toe positioning assemblies 41, and each toe is positioned separately without mutual influence, which is more convenient for driving.

[0105] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the plurality of pressing pieces 411 are configured to apply pressure to the toes of the chicken claw under the action of their own gravity.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pressing piece 411 presses on the toes of the chicken claw under the action of its own gravity, without the need to additionally increase a pressure device, which is more convenient.

[0107] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 12 and Figure 14 , the toe positioning assembly 41 includes a support member 412, and the plurality of pressing pieces 411 have through holes 4112. The support member 412 passes through the through holes 4112 of the plurality of pressing pieces 411, and the plurality of pressing pieces 411 are sleeved on the support member 412.

[0108] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, by driving the support member 412 to move away from or close to the chicken claw, the pressing pieces 411 sleeved on the support member 412 can be made to move away from or close to the chicken claw. When the pressing piece 411 moves away from the chicken claw, the positioning of the toe by the toe positioning assembly 41 is released; when the pressing piece 411 moves close to the chicken claw, the pressing piece 411 presses on the toes of the chicken claw, realizing the positioning of the toe by the toe positioning assembly 41.

[0109] Exemplarily, the support member 412 may include a support rod.

[0110] Since the plurality of pressing pieces 411 are sleeved on the support member 412, by setting the appropriate position of the support member 412, the pressing pieces 411 can be made to press on the toes of the chicken claw under the action of their own gravity, without the need to additionally increase a pressure device, which is more convenient. At the same time, the support member 412 passes through the through holes 4112 of the plurality of pressing pieces 411, so that the pressing pieces 411 will not tip over.

[0111] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toe-cutting mechanism 30 includes a second detection device (not shown in the figures) and a toe-cutting knife 31. The toe-cutting knife 31 is configured to move towards the toenails of the chicken feet fixed to the mold base 10. The second detection device is configured to detect the resistance received by the toe-cutting knife 31 during the movement. The toe-cutting knife 31 is further configured to cut the chicken feet based on the resistance received during the movement. Among them, the second detection device is not shown in the drawings of the present disclosure.

[0112] When using the toe-cutting machine provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, after the chicken feet move to the mold base 10, the positioning mechanism 40 fixes the chicken feet. After the chicken feet are fixed, the toe-cutting knife 31 moves towards the toenails of the chicken feet fixed to the mold base 10. The toenails of the chicken feet face the toe-cutting knife 31. During the movement of the toe-cutting knife 31, the toe-cutting knife 31 will contact the toenails of the chicken feet, causing the toe-cutting knife 31 to receive resistance during the movement. As the resistance received by the toe-cutting knife 31 increases, it indicates that the overlapping part between the toe-cutting knife 31 and the toenails of the chicken feet increases. When the resistance received by the toe-cutting knife 31 reaches the preset value, it indicates that the overlapping part between the toe-cutting knife 31 and the toenails of the chicken feet is sufficient to cut the chicken feet. For chicken feet with small sizes, the moving distance of the toe-cutting knife 31 will increase, and for chicken feet with large sizes, the moving distance of the toe-cutting knife 31 will decrease. The toe-cutting knife provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure cuts the chicken feet based on the resistance received during the movement, that is, for different chicken feet, the toe-cutting knife 31 can move different distances according to the shape or size of the chicken feet until the overlapping part between the toe-cutting knife 31 and the toenails of the chicken feet is sufficient and then cut the chicken feet, reducing the problems of insufficient or excessive toe-cutting amount, so that the toe-cutting machine can better adapt to chicken feet with different sizes and shapes and improve the toe-cutting quality.

[0113] Figure 18 Shows a schematic diagram of the pressing piece and the support according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 18 , according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, in the direction X in which the toe-cutting mechanism 30 moves towards the toenails of the chicken feet fixed to the mold base 10, the length L of the through holes 4112 on the plurality of pressing pieces 411 increases. Exemplarily, the length direction of the through holes 4112 is parallel to the vertical direction G. Figure 18 The pressing piece and the support shown are only examples.

[0114] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the direction X in which the toe-cutting knife 31 moves towards the toenails of the chicken feet fixed to the chicken foot mold base 10 can be understood as the direction in which the toe-cutting knife 31 moves from far away from the chicken feet to close to the chicken feet. When different toe-cutting knives 31 cut different toenails of the chicken feet, their moving direction X is different. Combining Figure 6 and Figure 16 , three toe-cutting knives 31 ( Figure 6 and Figure 16The toenails of the three toes of the chicken feet are respectively trimmed (not shown), and the directions X in which the three toenail clippers 31 move are different.

[0115] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, during the toenail trimming process, when the toenail clipper 31 moves in the direction towards the toenail of the chicken foot fixed to the chicken foot mold base 10, at this time, the pressing piece 411 presses on the toe of the chicken foot. In order to enable the toenail clipper 31 to contact the toe of the chicken foot and trim the toenail on the toe, and to prevent the pressing piece 411 from affecting the movement of the toenail clipper 31. At this time, the support member 412 moves in a direction away from the chicken foot, and the support member 412 drives the pressing piece 411 to move in a direction away from the chicken foot. Since in the direction X in which the toenail clipper 31 moves towards the toenail of the chicken foot fixed to the chicken foot mold base 10, the lengths L of the through holes 4112 on the plurality of pressing pieces 411 increase in sequence, at this time, the pressing piece 411 facing the toenail clipper 31 moves away from the chicken foot first. In this way, it not only prevents the pressing piece 411 from affecting the movement of the toenail clipper 31, but also some pressing pieces 411 press on the toes of the chicken foot to fix the chicken foot to prevent the toenail clipper 31 from pushing the chicken foot to move. When the toenail clipper 31 continues to move towards the chicken foot, the support member 412 continues to drive the pressing piece 411 to move in a direction away from the chicken foot, so that in the direction X in which the toenail clipper 31 moves towards the toenail of the chicken foot fixed to the chicken foot mold base 10, the plurality of pressing pieces 411 move away from the chicken foot in sequence until the toenail clipper 31 contacts the toenail. After the toenail trimming is completed, the positioning of the toes by the plurality of pressing pieces 411 is released, so that the chicken foot after toenail trimming can be detached from the mold base 10.

[0116] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support member 412 is further configured to move in a direction away from the working surface 101 of the mold base 10 in response to the distance between the toenail clipper 31 and the pressing piece 411 being less than a preset distance value, so as to drive the pressing piece 411 among the plurality of pressing pieces 411 whose distance from the toenail clipper 31 is less than the preset distance value to move, thereby releasing the pressure on the toes of the chicken foot to be trimmed.

[0117] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the distance between the toenail clipper 31 and the pressing piece 411 is less than the preset distance value, it indicates that the toenail clipper 31 is about to contact the pressing piece 411, and the pressing piece 411 can be lifted to prevent the pressing piece 411 from affecting the movement of the toenail clipper 31. By controlling the support member 412 to move to a side away from the mold base 10, the plurality of pressing pieces 411 are lifted in sequence, and the toenail clipper 31 can continue to move forward until the toenail clipper 31 contacts the toenail of the chicken foot, so that the toenail clipper 31 can trim the chicken foot more accurately.

[0118] Exemplarily, when the toenail clipper is not trimming toenails, the distance between the toenail clipper 31 and the pressing piece 411 is constant. The total distance that the toenail clipper 31 moves can be determined according to the moving speed and time of the toenail clipper 31, and then the distance between the toenail clipper 31 and the pressing piece 411 during the movement can be determined.

[0119] Exemplarily, the moving speeds of the toenail cutter 31 and the support member 412 can be controlled such that the toenail cutter 31 never contacts the pressing piece 411 during the process of the toenail cutter 31 moving towards the toenail of the chicken foot.

[0120] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toenail cutting machine further includes a first motor that drives the support member 412 to move, thereby driving the pressing piece 411 to move. The first motor is located inside the toenail cutting machine and is not shown.

[0121] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support members 412 corresponding to the two toes on the left and right sides of the three front toes of the chicken foot can be driven by the same first motor, the support member 412 corresponding to the middle toe of the three front toes of the chicken foot can be driven by another first motor, or the three support members 412 are respectively driven by different first motors.

[0122] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 further includes a claw surface positioning assembly 42. The claw surface positioning assembly 42 includes a driving unit 421 and a pressing member 422. The driving unit 421 is configured to drive the pressing member 422 to apply pressure to the chicken foot placed on the chicken foot mold base 10 to fix the chicken foot to the chicken foot mold base 10, and the pressing member 422 corresponds to the claw surface position of the chicken foot.

[0123] Exemplarily, the pressing member 422 may include a pressing plate.

[0124] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, setting the claw surface positioning assembly 42 can position the claw surface of the chicken foot, and at the same time can flatten the claw surface of the chicken foot, making the chicken foot flatter, increasing the contact area between the chicken foot and the mold base 10, increasing the fixing effect on the chicken foot, and at the same time, the difference in the shape of the flattened chicken foot is smaller, which can further improve the toenail cutting effect.

[0125] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the toenail cutting mechanism 30 further includes a slider and a guide rail. The toenail cutter 31 for cutting the toenails of the three front toes of the chicken foot can be fixed on the slider, and the slider is slidably connected to the guide rail. The second motor drives the slider to move on the guide rail, thereby driving the toenail cutter 31 to move. The toenail cutter 31 for cutting the toenails of the rear toes of the chicken foot can be pushed by a cylinder.

[0126] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, different toenail cutters 31 can be respectively driven by corresponding second motors.

[0127] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toenail cutter 31 corresponding to the rear toe of the chicken foot is driven by a cylinder or a motor.

[0128] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, for the toenail clipper 31 that clips the toenails of the three front toes of a chicken foot, the second detection device can determine the change in the resistance suffered by the toenail clipper 31 during movement by detecting the voltage value or current value of the second motor.

[0129] Exemplarily, taking the current value as an example, when the toenail clipper 31 is not in contact with the chicken foot, the current value of the driving member is constant. When the toenail clipper 31 comes into contact with the chicken foot, the resistance suffered by the toenail clipper 31 during movement will increase, and the current value of the driving member will also increase. The change in the resistance suffered by the toenail clipper 31 during movement can be determined according to the change in the current value of the driving member. When the current value of the driving member increases to a preset current value, it indicates that the toenail clipper 31 is in a sufficient contact state with the chicken foot.

[0130] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, for the toenail clipper 31 that clips the toenails of the rear toes of a chicken foot, the second detection device can determine the change in the resistance suffered by the toenail clipper 31 during movement by detecting the pneumatic pressure of the air cylinder.

[0131] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the moving direction V of the toenail clipper 31 towards the toenail of the chicken foot fixed to the mold base is parallel to the working surface. Figure 19 The front view of the toenail clipper according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Refer to Figure 19 , the toenail clipper 31 includes a toenail clipping main body 311 and a blade 312 located at the front end of the toenail clipping main body 311. The toenail clipping main body 311 can be fixed to the slider. The included angle between the extending direction U of the blade 312 of the toenail clipper 31 and the moving direction V of the toenail clipper 31 towards the toenail of the chicken foot fixed to the mold base 10 is an acute angle, and the blade 312 of the toenail clipper 31 is inclined towards the side where the chicken foot on the mold base 10 is placed.

[0132] The toenail of the chicken foot is located on the upper side of the toe. During the chicken foot toenail clipping process, the desired effect is to cut off the toenail while cutting off as little chicken meat as possible. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the blade 312 of the toenail clipper 31 is made into an inclined blade, and the blade 312 is inclined towards the side where the chicken foot on the mold base 10 is placed, so that the blade 312 of the toenail clipper 31 matches the toenail of the chicken foot, can clamp the toenail of the chicken foot, and can not only cut off the toenail of the chicken foot but also not cut off too much chicken meat resulting in waste.

[0133] During the toenail clipping process, the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 can approach each other so that the positioning mechanism 40 can press on the chicken foot located on the mold base 10 to position the chicken foot. After the toenail clipping is completed, the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 need to move away from each other, so as to facilitate taking out the chicken foot.

[0134] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, during the process of toe clipping, the three front toes of the chicken foot can be fixed by the positioning mechanism 40, and the rear toes of the chicken foot can be fixed through the receiving hole 11.

[0135] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, in combination Figure 12 with Figure 15 , the toe clipper may further include a second baffle 50, and the second baffle 50 is used to block the toenails splashing during the toe clipping process.

[0136] Exemplarily, in combination Figure 12 with Figure 16 , the toe clipper may further include a protective cover 60, and the positioning mechanism 40, the toe clipping mechanism 30, the first motor and the second motor are all covered in the protective cover 60 to protect them.

[0137] Referring to Figure 13 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 , the plug 70 of the toe clipper can be arranged at the rear side of the toe clipper.
