Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of food processing, in particular to a full-automatic meat skewer machine and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Meat skewers are an important part of food. Spicy hotpot and barbecue have a particularly large demand for meat skewers. With the accelerated pace of life and the increasing requirements of consumers for food quality and hygiene, the traditional manual method of threading meat skewers can no longer meet the market demand. Therefore, the fully automatic meat skewer machine, as a new type of food processing equipment, has gradually received widespread attention and application.

[0003] For example, the patent application with the prior art publication number CN115943984A provides an automated meat skewer machine. The skewer threading system is fixedly arranged on the support frame assembly along the length direction of the support frame assembly; the meat tray conveyor device is fixedly arranged on the support frame assembly along the length direction of the support frame assembly, the meat tray conveyor device is located in the middle of the skewer threading system, the skewer dropping device is located directly above the skewer threading system, and the skewer dropping device and the skewer threading system are arranged corresponding to each other at a preset first spacing; the meat skewer cutting device is fixedly connected to the skewer dropping device, the meat skewer cutting device is arranged away from one end of the support frame assembly, the meat skewer cutting device is located directly above the meat tray conveyor device, and the meat skewer cutting device and the meat tray conveyor device are arranged corresponding to each other at a preset second spacing. The automated meat skewer machine provided by this application solves the problem that the existing automated meat skewer machines are generally semi-automated, have a low degree of automation, and have a low production output, and cannot meet market demand, while improving work efficiency.

[0004] The above-mentioned prior art is highly automated and convenient for production, but during use, due to the high-speed operation and complex environment of the skewers on the automated production line, they are easy to absorb tiny particles in the environment, namely dust, when they come into contact with air, equipment parts and other materials. These dust particles are often not easily detected by the naked eye, but they may carry bacteria, viruses or other microorganisms, posing a potential threat to food safety. More importantly, when the skewers continue to move and contact the meat particles to be skewered, these attached dust particles may be transferred to the surface of the meat particles and mixed with the meat particles. Since the meat particles are directly exposed to the outside and served to consumers during the production process of the skewers, the attachment of dust will directly affect the sanitary quality of the skewers. Once the skewers containing dust flow into the market and are purchased and eaten by consumers, consumers may be dissatisfied with the taste and appearance of the product, thereby reducing satisfaction and loyalty to the brand. More seriously, if the dust contains pathogenic microorganisms, it may also cause food safety problems, such as food poisoning, gastrointestinal diseases, etc., posing a direct threat to the health of consumers.

[0048] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-3 The present invention provides a technical solution: a fully automatic meat skewer machine, in order to facilitate the conveying of skewers for inserting meat, a machine base 100 and a skewer conveying assembly 200 arranged above the machine base 100 are provided, the skewer conveying assembly 200 comprises a skewer bucket 201 fixedly connected to the top of the machine base 100 and used to store the skewers, a skewer conveying belt 205 for conveying the skewers, and a flip receiving shell 209 arranged on one side of the skewer conveying belt 205, one side of the bottom of the skewer bucket 201 is rotatably connected with a support plate 202, the bottom of the support plate 202 is fixedly connected with a first micro-vibration motor 204, both sides of the skewer bucket 201 are respectively fixedly connected with first tension springs 203 connected with the support plate 202, a plurality of spring support rods 207 are fixedly connected to the top of the machine base 100, and the telescopic ends of the plurality of spring support rods 207 are commonly connected with A frame 206 is used to support the skewer conveyor belt 205, and a second micro-vibration motor 208 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame 206. The first tension spring 203 is provided to hold the support plate 202, and the connection between the first tension spring 203 and the support plate 202 can be adjusted. It is only necessary to punch holes on both sides of the support plate 202 so that the first tension spring 203 is connected to its hole. This adjustable method can control the rate at which the skewer passes through the support plate 202, and the outer surface of the skewer conveyor belt 205 is evenly provided with a plurality of convex strips, which can separate a plurality of skewers. In cooperation with the second micro-vibration motor 208, a single skewer can be located between the two convex strips, so that a single skewer can be flipped over and transported inside the receiving shell 209 during the operation of the skewer conveyor belt 205.

[0050] Among them, reference Figure 5 as well as Figure 6In order to ensure that a single skewer passes through the flip material receiving shell 209 smoothly, a micro cylinder 210 is rotatably connected to the top of the machine base 100, and a connecting piece 211 is fixedly connected to the output end of the micro cylinder 210, and a flip crank 212 is rotatably connected to the top of the connecting piece 211, and the other end of the flip crank 212 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the flip material receiving shell 209. By driving the micro cylinder 210 to move its output end, the connecting piece 211 can be pushed to move. At this time, the flip crank 212 will be pulled by the connecting piece 211 and then drive the flip material receiving shell 209 to flip, so that after rotating a quarter of a turn, it will be separated from the flip material receiving shell 209 for transportation due to gravity.

[0051] See also Figure 2-4 In order to facilitate the synchronous conveying of meat materials, and because the gravity of the meat materials is greater than that of the skewers, a vibration motor cannot be used to convey them, a feeding assembly 300 is provided, including a hopper 301 fixedly connected to the top of the machine base 100 and used to store the meat materials, a feeding conveyor belt 304 for conveying the meat materials, and a discharging mechanism provided at the bottom of the hopper 301, the discharging mechanism including a limiting crank 306 rotatably connected to one side of the hopper 301, and a dustpan 302 for supporting the bottom of the hopper 301 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting crank 306, an extension frame 305 is fixedly connected to one side of the hopper 301, and a driving motor 308 is fixedly connected to one side of the extension frame 305, and the driving motor The output end of 308 passes through the extension frame 305 and is fixedly connected to an eccentric wheel 309. One side of the eccentric wheel 309 is rotatably connected to the eccentric wheel 309 which is rotatably connected to the bottom of the limit crank 306. By setting the mutual cooperation of the transmission crank 307 and the limit crank 306, the dustpan 302 is continuously shaken and misaligned with the bottom of the hopper 301, and the meat material stored in the hopper 301 is continuously conveyed, so that it falls onto the top surface of the feed conveyor belt 304 under the influence of gravity, thereby completing the conveying. The limit crank 306 can pull and support the dustpan 302, and the dustpan 302 will produce a small shake under the pulling of the transmission crank 307, so that the meat material is conveyed.

[0052] See also Figure 6-8In order to drive the conveyed skewers so that they move axially to insert the meat, a skewers insertion assembly 400 is provided, including a plurality of conveying rollers 403 for conveying the skewers, a bracket 401 is fixedly connected to the top of the machine base 100, and a plurality of conveying rollers 403 are rotatably connected to the inside of the bracket 401, a positioning plate 402 for guiding the skewers is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 401, a side frame 404 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 401, and a plurality of pressing rollers 405 are rotatably connected to the inside of the side frame 404, a servo motor 407 is fixedly connected to one side of the bracket 401, a driving wheel 408 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 407, and a plurality of conveying rollers 403 are fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 407. Both ends are fixedly connected with driven wheels 406, the driving wheel 408 is connected to a driven wheel 406 by a belt, and multiple driven wheels 406 are connected by belts. By arranging multiple driven wheels 406 connected by belts, multiple conveying rollers 403 can rotate synchronously in the same direction, thereby conveying skewers. The selection of a synchronous belt as the belt can effectively improve the transmission ratio and reduce the occurrence of slippage. The positioning plate 402 can guide the top surfaces of multiple conveying rollers 403 with the help of the skewers dropped from the flipping material receiving shell 209, and the clamping roller 405 can squeeze the skewers so that the skewers are tightly in contact with the surface of the conveying roller 403, thereby increasing the force of inserting the meat and avoiding misalignment of the meat.

[0053] See also Figure 12-14 In order to facilitate the positioning of the meat material after transportation, a positioning assembly 500 is provided, including a feeding platform 503 for placing the meat material and a plurality of pressing blocks 518 for fixing the meat material. The top of the feeding platform 503 is fixedly connected with a driving cylinder 504, and the output end of the driving cylinder 504 is fixedly connected with a pushing plate 505 for pushing the meat material. The top of the upper positioning frame 512 is fixedly connected with a second cylinder 516, and the output end of the second cylinder 516 is fixedly connected with a pressure frame 515, and the bottom of the pressure frame 515 is fixedly connected with a plurality of sliding rods 517 slidably connected to the upper positioning frame 512, and the bottoms of the plurality of sliding rods 517 are fixedly connected with a plurality of pressing blocks 518.

The top of the feeding platform 503 and one side of the lower positioning plate 507 are fixedly connected with an induction switch 520. The meat material passing through the feeding conveyor belt 304 eventually falls onto the top of the feeding platform 503. The driving cylinder 504 can push the meat material, and the multiple pressing blocks 518 will move down and resist the meat material under the driving force of the second cylinder 516, so that the subsequent skewers will not be misplaced when passing through the meat material, thereby improving the stability of the meat insertion.

[0054] In summary, through the coordinated use of the skewer conveying component 200, the material conveying component 300, the skewer inserting component 400 and the positioning component 500, the entire meat skewer making process is highly automated, manual operations are reduced, and production efficiency is greatly improved. The coordination of the first micro-vibration motor 204 and the second micro-vibration motor 208 ensures the stable conveying of the skewers and the meat material, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of the conveying. Through the adjustment of the first tension spring 203, the rate at which the skewers pass through the support plate 202 can be controlled to achieve precise control of the skewer conveyance. The design of the micro-cylinder 210 and the flip crank 212 can accurately control the flipping of the flip material receiving shell 209 to ensure the smooth transportation of the skewers. The use of the servo motor 407 can accurately control the rotation speed and direction of the conveying roller 403 to achieve precise conveying of the skewers and inserting of meat.

[0056] For further information, see Figure 13-15The skewers are slender in shape. In order to ensure that the skewers accurately pass through multiple meat materials, a limiting mechanism for limiting the position of the skewers is provided. The limiting mechanism includes a fixed base 501 fixedly connected to the top of the machine base 100, a stepper motor 508 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed base 501, and a first synchronous wheel 509 is fixedly connected to the output end of the stepper motor 508, a plurality of screws 510 are rotatably connected to the top of the fixed base 501, and a second synchronous wheel 511 connected to the first synchronous wheel 509 by a belt is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the screw 510, an adjustment positioning frame 506 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the screw 510, and a plurality of lower positioning plates 507 slidably connected to the feeding platform 503 are evenly fixedly connected to the top of the adjustment positioning frame 506, and an upper positioning frame 512 is provided above the feeding platform 503, and a plurality of An upper positioning plate 514 is provided, and an auxiliary frame 502 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed base 501, and a first cylinder 513 having multiple output ends fixedly connected to the upper positioning frame 512 is provided at the bottom of the auxiliary frame 502, wherein the adaptation of the lower positioning plate 507 and the upper positioning plate 514 can effectively position the skewers, so that the moving skewers can stably pass through multiple pieces of meat, and only a single piece of meat can be placed between the multiple lower positioning plates 507, and the height of the upper positioning plate 514 and the lower positioning plate 507 can be adjusted according to the size of the meat. The first synchronous wheel 509 can be driven to rotate by turning on the stepper motor 508, so that the belt transmission causes the second synchronous wheel 511 to rotate and the screw 510 to rotate, thereby adjusting the movement of the positioning frame 506, thereby adjusting the height of the lower positioning plate 507, and the positions of the multiple upper positioning plates 514 can be adjusted by controlling the first cylinder 513 to move the upper positioning frame 512.

[0057] In summary, the dust suction mechanism effectively cleans the dust and impurities on the surface of the skewers during the transportation of the skewers through the design of the air nozzle 415 and the air hole 409, which ensures the cleanliness of the meat skewers and improves the quality and taste of the product. The dust suction mechanism is not only used to clean the skewers, but also can produce a small roll by suction when the skewers move, which further promotes the cleaning of the skewers surface. This design enhances the versatility of the equipment and improves the overall value of the equipment. At the same time, the use of the dust suction component can also improve the stability of the skewer transportation and can effectively limit it. The limiting mechanism accurately positions the skewers through the cooperation of the upper positioning plate 514 and the lower positioning plate 507, which ensures that the skewers can accurately pass through the meat, improves the accuracy and consistency of the product, and enhances the adaptability of the equipment: the limiting mechanism can adjust the height of the upper positioning plate 514 and the lower positioning plate 507 according to the size of the meat, which enables the equipment to adapt to meat of different specifications and improves the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment.

[0058] Example 3: Please refer to Figure 1-15The present invention also provides a technical solution, which is different from the technical solution of embodiment 1: a method for using a fully automatic meat skewer machine, comprising the following steps:

[0059] S1. First, the skewers are poured into the skewers bucket 201. The first micro vibration motor 204 is turned on to make the support plate 202 vibrate so that it is misaligned with the bottom of the skewers bucket 201, so that the skewers in the skewers bucket 201 pass through the support plate 202 and fall onto the top surface of the skewers conveyor belt 205. The skewers conveyor belt 205 is turned on to convey the skewers that fall onto its top surface. At the same time, the second micro vibration motor 208 is turned on to generate vibration to make the skewers conveyor belt 205 shake, so that only one skewer is stored in the conveying groove on the top surface of the skewers conveyor belt 205. As the skewers conveyed by the skewers conveyor belt 205 fall into the interior of the flip receiving shell 209, the micro cylinder 210 is turned on to drive the connecting member 211 to move, thereby pushing one end of the flip crank 212 to move, thereby driving the flip receiving shell 209 to flip.

[0060] S2, at the same time, the meat material is poured into the interior of the hopper 301, and the driving motor 308 is turned on to drive the eccentric wheel 309 to rotate. At this time, the eccentric wheel 309 pulls one end of the transmission crank 307 to perform a circular motion, thereby pulling the dustpan 302 and the bottom of the hopper 301 to be misaligned, so that the meat material in the hopper 301 falls into the feeding conveyor belt 304 through the dustpan 302, and the feeding conveyor belt 304 is turned on to start conveying the meat material;

[0061] S3, when the skewers in the flip receiving shell 209 are flipped and fall out, they will hit the positioning plate 402 and then fall to the top of the multiple conveying rollers 403 due to gravity, and then the servo motor 407 is turned on to drive the driving wheel 408 to rotate. At this time, the driving wheel 408 and the driven wheel 406 on one side of the conveying roller 403 are belt-driven to rotate the conveying roller 403, and then the multiple driven wheels 406 start to rotate synchronously through the belts, so that the skewers move on the conveying roller 403, and at the same time, the top of the skewers will hit the multiple pressing rollers 40 5 is clamped, and when the multiple conveying rollers 403 rotate, the air can be sucked from the inside of the air pipe 411 by turning on the air pump 410. At this time, the air pipe 411 is connected with the multiple air rings 414 to absorb air from the multiple air nozzles 415. When the conveying rollers 403 rotate, the multiple air nozzles 415 will continuously overlap and misalign with the multiple notches 417. When the overlap or partial overlap occurs, the air nozzles 415 will absorb air from the inside of the conveying rollers 403, so that the conveying rollers 403 absorb air from the multiple air holes 409 to clean the dust on the surface of the skewers.

[0062] S4. When the meat material transported by the feeding conveyor belt 304 falls onto the top surface of the feeding platform 503, the driving cylinder 504 is turned on to push the pushing plate 505 to move, and the meat material that falls onto the top of the feeding platform 503 moves. Finally, the meat material will be pushed between the multiple lower positioning plates 507. Then, the second cylinder 516 is started to contract and pull the pressure frame 515 downward, thereby driving the multiple sliding rods 517 to slide inside the upper positioning frame 512 so that the pressing block 518 squeezes the meat material to position it. When the conveying roller 403 continues to transport the skewer, the skewer will pass through the meat material between the upper positioning plate 514 and the lower positioning plate 507 to complete the meat threading work. Then, the skewer hits the sensing switch 520 to turn off the servo motor 407, thereby completing a skewer of meat.
