[0002] With the continuous advancement of food processing technology, the beef processing industry is increasingly demanding automated, efficient, and low-waste production methods. Beef stripping is a critical step in beef processing. Cutting a whole block of beef into strips of uniform width to meet consumer and subsequent processing needs directly impacts subsequent processing efficiency, as well as the quality and consistency of the final product.

[0003] Common beef cutting equipment on the market generally suffers from a low degree of automation. Most of these machines rely on manual operation and cannot achieve a fully automated process. This limitation not only reduces production efficiency and increases labor costs, but also limits the continuity and stability of the processing process.

[0036] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0037] See also Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a beef block slitting device includes: a frame 1 for supporting, a cutting mechanism 2 for cutting beef blocks and cutting scraps, and a recycling mechanism 3 for recycling scraps and recycling larger scraps in the cutting process.

[0038] The frame 1 includes a first cutting groove 11, a first guide rod 12, a second guide rod 13, a feed conveyor belt 14 and a discharge conveyor belt 15. The first cutting groove 11 is arranged on the frame 1, the first guide rod 12 and the second guide rod 13 are fixedly connected to the frame 1, the feed conveyor belt 14 is arranged at the front end of the frame 1, and the discharge conveyor belt 15 is arranged at the rear end of the frame 1.

[0039] The cutting mechanism 2 includes a first lifting bracket 21, a cutter assembly 22, and a drive assembly 23. The first lifting bracket 21 is provided with a second cutting groove 211, a third telescopic rod 214, and a first spring 215. The position of the second cutting groove 211 corresponds to the first cutting groove 11, and the cutter 221 can pass through the first and second cutting grooves 11, 211 without colliding with the first and second cutting grooves 11, 211. The first lifting bracket 21 is slidably provided on the first guide rod 12. The first lifting bracket 21 is connected to the frame 1 via the third telescopic rod 214. The first lifting bracket 21 is connected to the frame 1 via the first spring 215. It can be understood that the third telescopic rod 214 can be retracted to drive the first lifting bracket 21 to slide upward along the first guide rod 12. The first spring 215 can release its elastic force and extend when the third telescopic rod 214 is extended, pushing the first lifting bracket 21 to slide down along the first guide rod 12. Specifically, the first lifting bracket 21 is further provided with a first lug 212 and a second lug 213. The first lug 212 is provided at the second cutting groove 211 and is provided at both ends of the first lifting bracket 21. The cutting assembly 22 and the driving assembly 23 are provided on the first lifting bracket 21.

[0040] The cutter assembly 22 includes a cutter 221, a transmission shaft 222, and a first drive motor 224. The transmission shaft 222 is rotatably mounted on the first lug 212, and the cutter 221 is fixedly mounted on the transmission shaft 222. The position of the cutter 221 corresponds to the second cutting groove 211 and the first cutting groove 11. The transmission shaft 222 is connected to the rotating shaft of the first drive motor 224. It can be understood that the first drive motor 224 can drive the cutter 221 to rotate via the transmission shaft 222 to cut the beef block into beef strips. The position of the corresponding gap 223 corresponds to the push bracket 361.

[0041] The drive assembly 23 includes a first pulley 231, a drive belt 232, and a second drive motor 233. The first pulley 231 is rotatably mounted on the second lug 213. The drive belt 232 is looped around the first pulley 231, and the second drive motor 233 is connected to the first pulley 231. Accordingly, a gap 223 is provided between the cutter 221 and the drive belt 232. The second drive motor 233 can drive the drive belt 232 to rotate via the first pulley 231. Accordingly, the lower half of the drive belt 232 is located below the first lifting bracket 21, and its upper half is located above the transmission shaft 222.

[0042] The scrap recycling mechanism 3 includes a second lifting bracket 31, a second pulley 32, an L-shaped belt 33, a third drive motor 34, a measuring assembly, and a pushing assembly. The second lifting bracket 31 is slidably arranged on the second guide rod 13. The second lifting bracket 31 is also provided with a slide 311 and a second spring 313. Correspondingly, the slide 311 is provided with a reversing portion 312. The second lifting bracket 31 is connected to the frame 1 via the second spring 313. It can be understood that when the beef block enters the bottom of the second lifting bracket 31, it will push the second lifting bracket 31 to slide upward along the second guide rod 13. During this process, the second spring 313 always pushes the second lifting bracket 31 downward, so that the lower end of the L-shaped belt 33 contacts the beef block or scrap. The second pulley 32 is rotatably mounted on the scrap recycling mechanism 3, and the L-shaped belt 33 is slidably mounted in the chute 311. The L-shaped belt 33 cooperates with the second pulley 32, and the third drive motor 34 is fixedly connected to the second pulley 32. It can be understood that the lower end of the L-shaped belt 33 can contact the scrap, and the upper end of the L-shaped belt 33 cooperates with the second pulley 32. The third drive motor 34 drives the L-shaped belt 33 to slide along the chute 311 via the second pulley 32. After the cutting mechanism 2 completes the cutting of the beef block into strips, the lower end of the L-shaped belt 33 contacts the cut scrap and drives it to move. The finished beef strips are separated at the reversing portion 312 and moved below the measuring assembly. The measuring assembly is mounted on the second lifting bracket 31, and the pushing assembly is mounted on the frame 1.

[0043] The measuring assembly is equipped with a sensor chute 351, a fixed sensor 352, and an adjustment sensor 353. The sensor chute 351 is mounted on the second lifting bracket 31, the fixed sensor 352 is fixedly mounted on the second lifting bracket 31, and the adjustment sensor 353 is slidably mounted within the sensor chute 351. It can be understood that by pushing the adjustment sensor 353 to slide within the sensor chute 351, the distance between the fixed sensor 352 and the adjustment sensor 353 can be adjusted, thereby controlling the minimum length of the recycled scrap. The frame 1 also includes a scrap collection box 16, which is mounted on the frame 1 and located below the push assembly. It can be understood that the L-shaped belt 33 drives the scraps to move to the bottom of the measuring component. The scraps simultaneously trigger the fixed sensor 352 and the adjustment sensor 353, and then the pushing component starts to be recycled. If only the fixed sensor 352 is triggered, the L-shaped belt 33 continues to move, and the pushing component does not start. After the scraps come into contact with the pushing bracket 361, they can no longer move and fall from the pushing component into the scrap collection box 16.

[0044] The pushing assembly includes a pushing bracket 361, a first telescopic rod 362, a push plate 363, and a second telescopic rod 364. The pushing bracket 361 is slidably mounted on the frame 1 and connected to the frame 1 via the first telescopic rod 362. The push plate 363 is slidably mounted on the frame 1 and connected to the pushing bracket 361 via the second telescopic rod 364. It can be understood that after the scrap material that meets the requirements enters the pushing bracket 361, the pushing bracket 361 prevents the scrap material from continuing to move along the L-shaped belt 33 and makes it contact the side wall of the pushing bracket 361. The second telescopic rod 364 extends, pushing the push plate 363 to squeeze the scrap material between the pushing bracket 361 and the push plate 363. Then, the first telescopic rod 362 extends, pushing the pushing bracket 361 and the scrap material as a whole to move below the cutting mechanism 2 until the pushing bracket 361 is aligned with the gap 223, and the cutting mechanism 2 re-cuts the scrap material.

[0045] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0046] When cutting starts, the beef block is placed on the feed conveyor belt 14 by a conveyor belt or manually, and is close to the side of the feed conveyor belt 14 away from the scrap material recovery mechanism 3, and the feed conveyor belt 14 conveys the beef block to the bottom of the cutting mechanism 2; the third telescopic rod 214 extends, driving the first lifting bracket 21 to descend until the driving belt 232 contacts the beef block, and the second driving motor 233 drives the driving belt 232 to rotate through the first pulley 231, and the driving belt 232 drives the beef block as a whole to move toward the cutting assembly 22; the second spring 313 pushes the second lifting bracket 31 to move downward until the lower end of the L-shaped belt 33 contacts the beef block, and the third driving motor 34 drives the L-shaped belt 33 to slide along the slide groove 311 through the second pulley 32, and the L-shaped belt 33 drives the beef block to move toward the cutting assembly 22; the first driving motor 224 drives the cutting knife 221 to rotate through the transmission shaft 222. After the beef block contacts the cutting knife 221, the cut beef strips are driven by the driving belt 232 The cutter 221 is moved to the bottom of the cutting mechanism 2 by the push bracket 361, and the first push bracket 362 is extended to push the cutter 221 and the cutter 222 to cut the cutter 221. The cutter 221 is moved to the bottom of the cutting mechanism 2 by the push bracket 361, and the first push bracket 362 is extended to push the cutter 221 and the cutter 222 to cut the cutter 221. The cutter 221 is moved to the bottom of the cutting mechanism 2 by the push bracket 361, and the cutter 221 is moved to the bottom of the cutting mechanism 2.
