Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of frozen bone cutting, and in particular to a bone cutting device and a method thereof for reducing aggregate waste. Background Art
[0002] In the meat processing industry, especially in the process of frozen bone processing, the traditional bone cutting method has long had many disadvantages, which has brought considerable troubles to enterprises. In the past, the conventional equal-width cutting method dominated, and this one-size-fits-all model completely ignored the characteristics of the different shapes of the frozen bones themselves. Operators often simply placed the frozen bones on the cutting table and then used a fixed-width knife to cut them. Due to the natural irregularity of frozen bones, such as some frozen bones are triangular, with a great difference in width between the vertex and the opposite side, and some frozen bones have complex shapes such as bending, unevenness, etc., the use of equal-width cutting will inevitably lead to uneven lengths of the cut bone strips. Short bone strips cannot meet the standards for subsequent processing or sales and can only be treated as waste, resulting in a large amount of waste of precious aggregates and greatly reducing the utilization rate of raw materials. Moreover, the uneven bone strips have poor appearance and lack competitiveness in the market, affecting the added value of the product.
[0003] From the perspective of processing efficiency, the traditional cutting method lacks flexibility. Every time a batch of frozen bones of different shapes is replaced, the operator needs to spend a lot of time to adjust the tool position and angle, and sometimes even needs to rely on experience to manually test the cutting. The process is cumbersome and time-consuming. At the same time, because the frozen bones are not firmly fixed during the cutting process, they are prone to displacement. On the one hand, it will lead to a decrease in cutting accuracy and produce more defective products. On the other hand, it may also cause safety hazards and threaten the personal safety of operators. Furthermore, the traditional cutting device does not have precise planning for the cutting path and is completely blind cutting, which further aggravates the problems of aggregate waste, low yield and low efficiency, seriously restricting the production efficiency of the enterprise and the development of the industry. An innovative bone cutting device is urgently needed to break this dilemma. Summary of the invention

[0017] S2, loading and fixing: start the pushing mechanism on the base, and the tray carrying the frozen bones moves accurately to the top of the placement area of the transverse platform.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0046] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0047] Reference Figures 1 to 17As shown, a bone cutting device for reducing aggregate waste includes a visual detection camera and a fixed jigsaw, and also includes a base 1, a tray 2 arranged at the top of one end of the base 1, a transverse platform 3 arranged at the top of the other end of the base 1, a bone pressing mechanism 4 arranged above the transverse platform 3, a support plate 5 arranged at the top of the transverse platform 3 for supporting frozen bones, a pressing mechanism 6 arranged at one side of the top of the transverse platform 3 for pressing the frozen bones against the support plate 5, and an angle adjustment mechanism 7 arranged at a side of the top of the transverse platform 3 away from the pressing mechanism 6 for adjusting the horizontal rotation angle of the support plate 5. The transverse platform 3 is provided with a groove for avoiding the jigsaw. The strip avoidance hole 8 is provided, the tightening mechanism 6 and the angle adjustment mechanism 7 are respectively located on both sides of the strip avoidance hole 8, a placement area 11 with anti-slip patterns is provided on the top of one end of the transverse moving platform 3 close to the tray 2, and a pushing mechanism 9 for driving the tray 2 to move above the placement area 11 is provided on the base 1. A baffle 10 which can be translated to one end of the placement area 11 is also provided on the side of the top of the transverse moving platform 3 away from the tray 2, and both the baffle 10 and the placement area 11 are located on the same side of the strip avoidance hole 8, and the visual detection camera is provided above the tray 2 to detect and identify the contour shape of the frozen bones.
[0048] Working principle and effect of the whole device: This bone cutting device focuses on the task of frozen bone cutting. In the initial state, the frozen bone is placed on the tray 2, and then the pushing mechanism 9 on the base 1 is started to accurately move the tray 2 to the top of the placement area 11 at one end of the transverse platform 3. At this time, the visual detection camera located above the tray 2 immediately scans the frozen bone, quickly detects and identifies the contour shape of the frozen bone, and transmits the acquired data to the control system in real time. The control system plans the most suitable cutting path based on the built-in algorithm. The support plate 5 on the transverse platform 3 provides support for the frozen bone, and the pressing mechanism 6 is on standby at any time, ready to press the frozen bone tightly against the support plate 5 to ensure the stability of the frozen bone during cutting. The angle adjustment mechanism 7 can flexibly adjust the horizontal rotation angle of the support plate 5 as needed according to the shape of the frozen bone. When everything is ready, the fixed jigsaw starts to work, and the strip avoidance hole 8 on the transverse platform 3 leaves space for the jigsaw to run, ensuring smooth cutting. Moreover, in the early stage of cutting, the baffle 10 is in a specific position to prevent the cutting from starting from the key position of the frozen bone (such as the vertex of the triangle), thereby ensuring that the largest number of bone strips with sufficient length and excellent appearance can be cut out subsequently.
[0049] Achievement of purpose or effect: Effectively solve the problem of different lengths of bone strips, poor appearance and quality, and large amount of aggregate waste caused by conventional equal-width cutting of frozen bones. Through precise planning of the cutting path and the coordinated operation of various components, the yield of frozen bone cutting is significantly improved, aggregate waste is reduced, and higher economic benefits are brought to production. Fig.10 As shown, the cutting paths in the range E in the figure are all capable of cutting out high-quality bone strips of sufficient length.
[0050] The clamping mechanism 6 includes a horizontal support plate 41 and a plurality of anti-slip pressure blocks 42 distributed on the side of the horizontal support plate 41 facing the support plate 5. The horizontal support plate 41 is located above the placement area 11. The bottom of the transverse movement platform 3 is fixedly provided with a first slide rail 12 for slidingly connecting the outer end of the horizontal support plate 41. The horizontal support plate 41 and the first slide rail 12 are connected in a horizontal "U-shape". The transverse movement platform 3 is located between the horizontal support plate 41 and the first slide rail 12. One side of the first slide rail 12 is also provided with a first rack 13 fixedly connected to the horizontal support plate 41. The bottom of the transverse movement platform 3 is fixedly provided with a first motor 14. The output shaft of the first motor 14 is provided with a first gear 15 meshing with the first rack 13.
[0051] Working principle and effect of tightening mechanism 6:
[0052] Working principle: It consists of a horizontal support plate 41 and a number of anti-skid pressure blocks 42. The outer end of the horizontal support plate 41 and the first slide rail 12 at the bottom of the transverse platform 3 are connected in a "U-shaped" manner. This design ensures that the horizontal support plate 41 can slide horizontally smoothly along the slide rail. When the cutting process requires the frozen bone to be fixed, the first motor 14 receives the control system command, drives the output shaft to rotate, and drives the first gear 15 installed on the shaft to rotate. The first gear 15 is engaged with the first rack 13 fixed on one side of the horizontal support plate 41, prompting the horizontal support plate 41 and the anti-skid pressure blocks 42 thereon to move toward the support plate 5, and finally firmly press the frozen bone. The anti-skid pressure blocks 42 can increase the friction force to prevent the frozen bone from shifting during the cutting process.
[0053] Achieved purpose or effect: Provides reliable lateral fixed support for frozen bone cutting, prevents the frozen bone from shifting due to external factors such as cutting vibration, effectively ensures cutting accuracy, further reduces the probability of cutting errors caused by frozen bone displacement, and reduces aggregate waste.
[0054] A long-axis cylinder 16 is arranged on the horizontal support plate 41 and is vertically oriented toward the strip avoidance hole 8. A strip plate 17 for pressing one end of the small head of the frozen bone is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the long-axis cylinder 16. The end of the strip plate 17 is formed with anti-slip serrations 18.
[0055] Working principle and effect of 16 parts of long-axis cylinder:
[0056] Working principle: After receiving the command from the control system, the long-axis cylinder 16 installed on the horizontal support plate 41 drives the output shaft forward, and the strip plate 17 connected to the front end of the output shaft moves toward the end of the frozen bone head. The end of the strip plate 17 is designed with anti-slip serrations 18. When it contacts the frozen bone head, the serrations tightly bite the frozen bone surface with the special structure, increasing the friction, thereby firmly pressing the end of the frozen bone head.
[0057] Achieve purpose or effect: Taking into full consideration the difficulty in fixing the small head of the frozen bone, the fixing effect of this part is specially strengthened, and cooperates with the tightening mechanism 6 to achieve all-round stability of the frozen bone, ensuring that the frozen bone, especially the small head, remains still during cutting, ensuring the smooth progress of the cutting work, and reducing the output of defective products.
[0058] The base 1 is provided with a second slide rail 19 for connecting the transverse platform 3, and a second motor 20 is fixedly provided on the base 1. A second gear 21 is connected to the output shaft of the second motor 20. A second rack 22 meshing with the second gear 21 is also provided at the bottom of the transverse platform 3, and the length direction of the second rack 22 is consistent with the length direction of the second slide rail 19.
[0059] Working principle and effect of the moving mechanism of the transverse platform 3:
[0060] Working principle: The second slide rail 19 installed on the base 1 provides solid support and precise guidance for the transverse platform 3. When the cutting demand changes and the position of the transverse platform 3 needs to be adjusted, the second motor 20 fixed on the base 1 receives the control system command to start, and the drive output shaft drives the second gear 21 connected thereto to rotate. Since the second gear 21 is tightly meshed with the second rack 22 at the bottom of the transverse platform 3, and the length direction of the second rack 22 is consistent with the second slide rail 19, the transverse platform 3 can move smoothly along the slide rail.
[0061] Purpose or effect achieved: It is convenient to flexibly adjust the position of the transverse moving platform 3 according to different cutting requirements. For example, when cutting different parts of frozen bones or dealing with frozen bones of various shapes, the frozen bones and the jigsaw can reach the best relative position, which broadens the cutting adaptability of the device and improves the cutting efficiency and accuracy.
[0062] A double-rod cylinder 23 is fixedly provided on the top of the transverse platform 3 for driving the baffle 10 to translate. When the baffle 10 is between the support plate 5 and the strip plate 17, one end of the small head of the frozen bone is pressed against the baffle 10 by the anti-slip serrations 18.
[0063] Working principle and effect of baffle 10 moving mechanism:
[0064] Working principle: The double-rod cylinder 23 set on the top of the transverse platform 3 is the power source for the movement of the baffle 10. In the early stage of cutting, when it is necessary to avoid cutting from a specific part of the frozen bone (such as the vertex of the triangle), the baffle 10 is between the backing plate 5 and the strip plate 17. At this time, the double-rod cylinder 23 maintains the stability of the baffle 10, and one end of the small head of the frozen bone is pressed against the baffle 10 to ensure that the starting position of the cutting avoids the key part. When the early cutting is completed and it is necessary to cut the bone strip of sufficient length, the control system sends a command to the double-rod cylinder 23, and the double-rod cylinder 23 drives the baffle 10 to move horizontally and evacuate to make room for subsequent cutting. At the same time, the clamping mechanism 6 completely presses the frozen bone against the backing plate 5, waiting for the jigsaw to cut the bone of sufficient length.
[0065] Achieve purpose or effect: Accurately control the starting position of cutting, effectively prevent accidental cutting of key parts of frozen bones, ensure that the cutting process is strictly carried out according to the preset optimal cutting path, improve the quality of finished bone strips, and reduce short bone strips or waste caused by incorrect cutting paths.
[0066] A translation mechanism for moving the angle adjustment mechanism 7 closer to or away from the frozen bone is provided on the top of the transverse moving platform 3. The angle adjustment mechanism 7 includes an L-shaped base plate, a hollow threaded motor 25 and an angle detection sensor 26. The L-shaped base plate is provided on the translation output end of the translation mechanism. One end of the support plate 5 is axially connected to the outer end of the short side of the L-shaped base plate. The angle detection sensor 26 is provided at the axial connection between the support plate 5 and the L-shaped base plate. The hollow threaded motor 25 is axially connected to the long side of the L-shaped base plate through a rotating motor bracket 27. An articulated seat is provided on the back side of the free end of the support plate 5. A connector 28 is axially connected to the articulated seat. A long screw rod 29 is fixedly connected to the free end of the connector 28. The long screw rod 29 passes through the hollow threaded motor 25 and is threadedly matched with it.
[0067] Working principle and effect of angle adjustment mechanism 7:
[0068] Working principle: First, the translation mechanism drives the L-shaped bottom plate 24 to move closer to or away from the frozen bone under the command of the control system to achieve preliminary rough adjustment. One end of the support plate 5 is connected to the outer end of the short side of the L-shaped bottom plate 24 by a shaft connection to ensure flexible rotation. The hollow threaded motor 25 is fixedly connected to the long side of the L-shaped bottom plate 24 with the help of the rotating motor bracket 27. The connector 28 on the back side of the free end of the support plate 5 is connected to one end of the long lead screw 29. The long lead screw 29 accurately passes through the hollow threaded motor 25 and is threaded with it. When the angle of the support plate 5 needs to be adjusted, the hollow threaded motor 25 is started, and according to the principle of thread transmission, the connector 28 and the support plate 5 are pushed to rotate around the axis. During this process, the angle detection sensor 26 monitors the angle of the shaft connection between the support plate 5 and the L-shaped bottom plate 24 in real time, and feeds back the data to the control system for precise control. It is worth noting that the angle adjustment function of the support plate 5 does not necessarily have to be achieved through automatic control. A traditional hand-adjustable device with a scale can also be used. This is because when cutting the same piece of frozen bone, the angle between every two adjacent cutting paths is certain. The present invention adds an automated adjustment method to save the tedious adjustment process between each bone cutting.
[0069] Purpose or effect: For frozen bones with irregular shapes, especially those with large width differences between the vertex and the opposite side of triangular frozen bones, the angle between the support plate 5 and the cutting route can be accurately adjusted to ensure uniform width of the bone strips during cutting, improve cutting quality, and reduce uneven bone strips or waste caused by improper angles.
[0070] The free end of the connector 28 is formed with a cylindrical socket, one end of the long screw rod 29 is formed with a plug for matching the cylindrical socket, the cylindrical wall of the plug is formed with an inward-recessed top screw groove, the upper and lower ends of the connector 28 are both screwed with headless screws 30 for tightening the top screw groove, the angle detection sensor 26 is fixedly set at the bottom of the L-shaped base plate, the support plate 5 and the L-shaped base plate are hinged by a vertical axis, and the detection axis of the angle detection sensor 26 is upwardly plugged into the bottom of the vertical axis.
[0071] Connector 28 related structure working principle and effect:
[0072] Working principle: The cylindrical socket at the free end of the connector 28 is tightly matched with the plug at one end of the long screw rod 29. The top screw groove set on the cylindrical wall of the plug and the headless screw 30 installed at the upper and lower ends of the connector 28 constitute a stable connection structure. When it is necessary to ensure a reliable connection, tighten the headless screw 30 so that it is tightly pressed into the top screw groove to firmly fix the plug in the socket. The angle detection sensor 26 is fixed to the bottom of the L-shaped bottom plate 24, and its detection axis is precisely plugged into the bottom of the vertical axis, so that the rotation angle of the support plate 5 can be accurately detected. The support plate 5 and the L-shaped bottom plate 24 are hinged through the vertical axis to achieve flexible rotation.
[0073] Achieve purpose or effect: Ensure the stable connection of the angle adjustment mechanism 7 and accurate angle detection, lay a solid foundation for accurate angle adjustment of the support plate 5, thereby ensuring cutting accuracy and reducing cutting deviation and aggregate waste caused by loose connection and inaccurate angle detection.
[0074] A 3D camera for detecting three-dimensional spatial data of the frozen bone surface is also arranged above the placement area 11. The bone pressing mechanism 4 includes a rectangular support seat 31 and a plurality of pressing needles 32 distributed in a rectangular array state in the rectangular support seat 31. The lower ends of the pressing needles 32 extend vertically downward from the bottom of the rectangular support seat 31 and contact the frozen bone. An adjustment mechanism is arranged above each of the pressing needles 32, which can pre-adjust the bottoming and pressing stroke of the pressing needles 32 according to the detection data of the 3D camera.
[0075] Working principle and effect of 3D camera and bone compression mechanism 4:
[0076] Working principle: When the tray 2 drives the frozen bone to move above the placement area 11, the bone pressing mechanism 4 starts to operate, and its rectangular support seat 31 slowly moves downward, and the pressing needles 32 distributed in the internal rectangular array gradually contact the frozen bone. At the same time, the tray 2 is quickly withdrawn, so that the frozen bone remains in the placement area 11, and the pressing needles 32 firmly fix the frozen bone. The 3D camera above the placement area 11 simultaneously scans the surface of the frozen bone, obtains three-dimensional spatial data and transmits it to the control system in real time. The adjustment mechanism is precisely controlled according to the 3D camera data. The micro motor 33 drives the threaded rod 34 to rotate. Since the lower half of the threaded rod 34 is screwed into the inner hole of the threaded column 35, and the threaded column 35 is limited by the strip limiting groove 39 and the slide bar 40 in the cylindrical through hole 37, it can only move up and down. The upper end of the spring 36 is sleeved on the positioning column at the lower end of the threaded column 35, and the lower end is pressed against the slide column 45 at the top of the pressing needle 32. By adjusting the position of the threaded column 35, the pre-compression amount of the spring 36 is changed, thereby accurately controlling the bottoming and pressing stroke of the pressing needle 32 to adapt to the shape of the frozen bone.
[0077] Achieved purpose or effect: The 3D camera provides more accurate frozen bone surface information for cutting planning. The bone pressing mechanism 4 can adaptively adjust the downward pressure of the pressing needle 32 according to the actual shape of the frozen bone to ensure the stability of the frozen bone, avoid damage to the frozen bone caused by excessive pressure, optimize the cutting conditions, and improve the cutting yield rate.
[0078] The adjustment mechanism includes a micro motor 33, a threaded rod 34, a threaded column 35 and a spring 36 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The rectangular support seat 31 is formed with a plurality of cylindrical through holes 37 for accommodating the movement of the adjustment mechanism. The micro motor 33 is fixedly arranged on the top of the rectangular support seat 31 and its output shaft extends downward into the cylindrical through hole 37 below. The output shaft of the micro motor 33 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the threaded rod 34 through a micro coupling 38. The lower half of the threaded rod 34 is screwed to the threaded column 35. In the inner hole of the threaded column 35, the lower end of the threaded column 35 is formed with a positioning column for the upper end of the spring 36 to be sleeved, the length of the positioning column is greater than the length of the spring 36 when it is extremely compressed, the top of the pressure needle 32 is formed with a sliding column 45 slidably set in the cylindrical through hole 37, the lower end of the spring 36 is tightly pressed against the top of the sliding column 45, and a strip-shaped limiting groove 39 is formed on the inner wall of the upper half of the cylindrical through hole 37, and a sliding bar 40 matching the strip-shaped limiting groove 39 is provided on the outer wall of the threaded column 35.
[0079] Detailed working principle and effect of adjustment mechanism:
[0080] Working principle: The micro motor 33 is fixed on the top of the rectangular support seat 31. After receiving the control system command, the output shaft drives the threaded rod 34 to rotate through the micro coupling 38. Based on the principle of thread matching, the threaded rod 34 and the threaded column 35 realize lifting and lowering movements. The positioning column at the lower end of the threaded column 35 is sleeved with the spring 36. The lower end of the spring 36 acts on the sliding column 45 of the pressure needle 32. The strip limit groove 39 in the upper half of the cylindrical through hole 37 cooperates with the sliding strip 40 on the outer wall of the threaded column 35, strictly constraining the threaded column 35 to move only along the axial direction to ensure the accuracy of adjustment.
[0081] Purpose or effect achieved: To achieve precise control of the downward pressing stroke of the pressing needle 32, perfectly adapt to the surface fluctuations of frozen bones of different shapes, while stably fixing the frozen bones, minimizing damage to the frozen bones, ensuring smooth cutting, and reducing cutting problems caused by improper fixation.
