Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kelp knotting processing, and in particular to a kelp knotting device. Background Art

[0002] As a widely consumed marine algae, kelp’s morphological processing, packaging and transportation are crucial in the entire supply chain from its harvesting from the ocean to the final consumer market. Freshly harvested kelp is often presented in the form of long strips, which not only takes up a lot of space and increases the difficulty of packing and transportation, but is also easily damaged by mutual friction and squeezing during handling, affecting product quality. To solve this problem, kelp knotting technology came into being. The knotted kelp not only has a significantly reduced volume, making it easier to stack and transport, but also reduces losses during transportation, while also improving the convenience for consumers when using it. For example, it is easier to pick up with chopsticks after cooking, and maintains a good shape and taste during the cooking process.

[0003] However, the traditional kelp knotting method is highly dependent on manual labor, mainly through winding or folding. This method is not only labor-intensive and requires a lot of human resources, but also inefficient and difficult to meet the needs of modern production. With the development of automation technology, mechanical equipment for kelp knotting has gradually emerged in the market. These equipment have reduced the labor burden to a certain extent and improved production efficiency.

[0004] However, existing kelp knotting machinery and equipment still face many challenges in practical applications. First, the equipment is often only optimized for a certain link in the knotting process, lacking the continuity and coordination of the overall process. This leads to problems such as unreliable fixation and kelp slipping during knotting in the entire process from cutting to knotting, which seriously reduces the yield of kelp knots.

[0048] It should be noted that the pushing mechanism 307 pushes the bottom plate 301 and the components on the bottom plate 301 to move forward and backward for adjustment, pushes the bottom plate 301 to move near the cut and segmented kelp, and then clamps the kelp through the first clamping jaw 304 and the second clamping jaw 305, and the clamping is driven by the spacing adjustment mechanism 302 to move the first clamping jaw 304 and approach the second clamping jaw 305, so that the horizontal kelp falls into a U-shaped kelp. The rotation adjustment mechanism 303 drives the second clamping jaw 305 to rotate 90°, so that the clamping mouth faces upward, which is convenient for cooperating with the knotting component 40 to knot the kelp.

[0056] Then the transmission component 402 is operated, and the transmission component 402 pushes the knotting control mechanism 405 to move, and the knotting control mechanism 405 approaches the U-shaped kelp, and then the kelp is wrapped around the outer wall of the knotting control mechanism 405, and the knotting control mechanism 405 and the horizontal clamp are vertically matched, and the knotting control mechanism 405 clamps the kelp on the second clamping jaw 305, and then the knotting control mechanism 405 moves to cooperate with the kelp on the first clamping jaw 304 to complete the knotting operation. After the knotting is completed, the knotted kelp is pushed onto the discharge hopper 404 by the pushing assembly 50, which is convenient for kelp collection.

[0093] It should be noted that the ninth driving component 501 is a hydraulic cylinder, and the output end of the ninth driving component 501 is connected to the push plate 502 through an axis, pushing the push plate 502 to move, and the push plate 503 below the push plate 502 is attached to the outer side of the outer cover shell 40541. After the kelp is knotted, the knotted kelp is pushed down and falls on the discharge hopper 404, and slides through the discharge hopper 404 to complete the collection.

[0094] Specifically, the steps for knotting the kelp of the kelp knotting equipment are as follows: first, the kelp is placed flat on the feeding mechanism 204, and the third driving component 2041 is operated to drive the movable bracket 2042 to rise and fall on the fixed frame 201, and the movable bracket 2042 is pushed up to make the placement plate 2043 move up and engage with the limiting card plate 2032 to be fixed, and then the second driving component 2031 in the translation mechanism 203 is operated, and the limiting card plate 2032 drives the placement plate 2043 to move horizontally, so that the material trough 2044 is located directly below the cutting component 2023, and then the first driving component 2021 is operated to drive the cutting component 2023 to move down, and the kelp is cut and segmented.

[0095] The steps of clamping the cut and segmented kelp are as follows: operating the pushing mechanism 307, the second transmission component 3071 drives the bottom plate 301 to move when operating, so that the first clamping jaw 304 and the second clamping jaw 305 are close to the cut and segmented kelp, and then the kelp is clamped and fixed by the first clamping jaw 304 and the second clamping jaw 305. Operating the spacing adjustment mechanism 302, the fourth driving component 3022 drives the connecting plate 3023 to move, the connecting plate 3023 synchronously drives the transmission plate 3024 to move, the transmission plate 3024 drives the first clamping jaw 304 to move, and then adjusts the spacing between the first clamping jaw 304 and the second clamping jaw 305, so that the horizontal kelp movement changes to a U shape. Operating the rotation adjustment mechanism 303, the fifth driving component 3031 drives the transmission shaft 3033 to move through the fastening clamp block 3032, and the transmission shaft 3033 drives the connecting rod 3034 to rotate during the movement, thereby driving the second clamping jaw 305 to rotate 90°, so that the second clamping jaw 305 rotates to a horizontal clamp.

[0096] The steps of knotting the clamped kelp are as follows: operating the transmission component 402, the transmission component 402 pushes the knotting control mechanism 405 to move, the knotting control mechanism 405 approaches the U-shaped kelp, and operating the eighth driving component 40533. When the eighth driving component 40533 is in operation, it pushes the guide bracket 40542 to move and controls the double clamping claws 40543 to pass through the U-shaped kelp, and the double clamping claws 40543 open to drag the kelp to the outside of the outer shell 40541. Operating the seventh driving component 40521 drives the sliding component 40523 to move on the slide rail 40524 through the fastening block 40522, and the sliding component 40523 is meshed with the transmission gear 40532, thereby driving the double clamping claws 40543 and the outer shell 40541 to rotate, and the kelp is wound around the outer shell 40541. The operating transmission component 402 drives the knotting control mechanism 405 to move, and makes the double jaws 40543 and the second jaw 305 of the horizontal clamp cooperate vertically, and the double jaws 40543 are driven to clamp the kelp through the eighth driving component 40533, and the second jaw 305 is separated from the kelp. At this time, the two ends of the kelp are clamped by the double jaws 40543 and the first jaw 304, and when the driving transmission component 402 moves, the double jaws 40543 move and move in the opposite direction of the first jaw 304, so that the kelp passes through the kelp ring on the outer cover shell 40541 to complete the knotting.

[0097] After knotting is completed, the knotted kelp is pushed onto the discharge hopper 404 through the pushing assembly 50, and the output end of the ninth driving component 501 is connected to the push plate 502 through the shaft, pushing the push plate 502 to move, and the push plate 503 under the push plate 502 is attached to the outer side of the outer cover shell 40541. After the kelp is knotted, the knotted kelp is pushed down and falls onto the discharge hopper 404, and is collected by sliding through the discharge hopper 404.

[0098] In summary, the kelp knot tying equipment of the embodiment of the present application cuts the kelp into segments in sequence, and then clamps and fixes the kelp by two clamps with adjustable spacing to ensure the stability of the kelp during the knotting process, and then circles and ties the kelp, effectively improving the yield and processing efficiency of kelp knotting.
