Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dicing machine, in particular to a carrot dicing machine based on direction change and a dicing method. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a kind of root vegetables, carrot is rich in nutrients and has a large consumption, which needs to be processed into small pieces with specific shape and size in catering industry, food processing industry and home kitchen. The existing carrot dicing method mainly adopts rotary cutting equipment, i.e. dicing machine, and its typical working principle is as follows: carrot is sent into a high-speed rotating cylindrical structure, and fixed blade matrix is arranged on the inner wall or the outside of the cutting cylinder. Carrot passes through the rotating cutting cylinder in a substantially straight line under the driving of gravity, friction or propeller.

[0003] Although such equipment improves production efficiency, it still has the following technical limitations: (1) single fixed cutting direction: the cutting trajectory of blade and the feeding direction of carrot are relatively fixed single straight line motion (axial or radial); (2) unable to generate diversified / irregular shapes: the existing equipment cannot dynamically change the relative motion direction of cutting knife or the feeding direction of carrot during cutting, and cannot produce non-cubic shape dicing such as polygon or irregular polyhedron; (3) material utilization rate is not ideal: when processing irregular or slightly curved carrots, straight cutting mode produces a large amount of scrap or irregular edge material at the cutting end or edge, causing raw material waste; (4) limited to the shape of raw materials: it cannot effectively process carrots that are too curved, have too large taper or have irregular shape; (5) single blade contact mode and cutting surface: the action of blade on carrot is mainly single cutting or extrusion cutting perpendicular to the feeding direction, lacking multi-angle and multi-direction cutting combination.

[0004] In summary, the existing rotary cutting equipment faces the fundamental challenge of fixed motion trajectory and single cutting direction when processing carrot dicing, and lacks multi-dimensional, controllable and variable relative motion between cutting knife group and material. Therefore, we provide a carrot dicing machine based on direction change and a dicing method to solve the above-mentioned problems. SUMMARY

[0044] As a further scheme of the present application, the feeding mechanism comprises a feeding hopper 28 fixed on the frame 1, the inner side of the feeding hopper 28 is provided with two first rotating rollers 29 which are rotatably arranged on the frame 1, the side of the two first rotating rollers 29 is respectively rotatably provided with a second rotating roller 30, the first rotating roller 29 is fixed with a fish scale roller 31, the second rotating roller 30 is fixed with a rotating roller 32, the end of the first rotating roller 29 and the second rotating roller 30 is provided with a connecting plate 33, the two ends of the connecting plate 33 are respectively rotatably connected with the first rotating roller 29 and the second rotating roller 30, the two first rotating rollers 29 are driven to synchronously and reversely rotate through a first transmission mechanism, the first rotating roller 29 and the second rotating roller 30 are synchronously and reversely driven through a first gear mechanism, the frame 1 is hingedly provided with a fourth cylinder 40, the piston rod of the output end of the fourth cylinder 40 is hingedly connected with the connecting plate 33; The first transmission mechanism comprises a third gear 36 fixed on the two first rotating rollers 29 and a fourth gear 37 rotatably arranged on the frame 1, the frame 1 is fixed with a fifth motor 39, the output end of the fifth motor 39 is fixed with a fifth gear 38, the fifth gear 38 is engaged with the fourth gear 37 and one of the third gears 36, the fourth gear 37 is further engaged with the other third gear 36. The first gear mechanism comprises a first gear 34 fixed on the second rotating roller 30 and a second gear 35 fixed on the first rotating roller 29, the first gear 34 is engaged with the second gear 35.

[0045] In this embodiment, the fifth motor 39 and the fourth cylinder 40 are electrically connected to an external power source through wires, respectively. Starting the fifth motor 39 can drive the fifth gear 38 to rotate. The fifth gear 38 is engaged with the fourth gear 37 and one of the third gears 36. The fourth gear 37 is engaged with the other third gear 36. When the fifth gear 38 rotates, it drives one third gear 36 and the fourth gear 37 to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear 37 also drives the other third gear 36 to rotate, thereby driving the two first rollers 29 to rotate in opposite directions synchronously. The first roller 29, the second roller 30, and the first gear mechanism are matched to drive the first roller 29 and the second roller 30 to rotate in opposite directions synchronously. When the first roller 29 rotates, it drives the second gear 35 to rotate. The first gear 34 is engaged with the second gear 35 to drive the first gear 34 to rotate, thereby driving the second roller 30 to rotate. Therefore, when the first roller 29 rotates, it drives the two second rollers 30 to rotate in opposite directions synchronously. Thus, when the two fish scale rollers 31 rotate in opposite directions synchronously, the two rotating rollers 32 rotate in opposite directions synchronously. When the carrots are poured into the feeding hopper 28 in batches, the fish scale rollers 31 and the rotating rollers 32 roll to squeeze and adjust the carrots falling into the feeding hopper 28 to positions consistent with the axial direction of the rotating rollers 32. Since the first roller 29 and the second roller 30 are provided with the connecting plate 33, the two ends of the connecting plate 33 are rotatably connected to the first roller 29 and the second roller 30, respectively. The first roller 29 is rotatably arranged on the rack 1, so the position of one end of the connecting plate 33 is fixed. Starting the fourth cylinder 40 can drive the connecting plate 33 to rotate, thereby driving the second roller 30 to revolve around the first roller 29. That is, the second roller 30 can rotate around the first roller 29. When the bottommost carrot in the feeding hopper 28 is adjusted to a position consistent with the axial direction of the rotating roller 32, starting the fourth cylinder 40 drives the connecting plate 33 to deflect and drive the rotating roller 32 to revolve downward around the fish scale roller 31. At this time, a gap is formed between the two rotating rollers 32. The bottommost carrot falls downward under the action of gravity. Since the notch 4 is located directly below the two rotating rollers 32, the carrot falls into the notch 4 and then into the barrel 3. Then, starting the fourth cylinder 40 again drives the two rotating rollers 32 to revolve upward around the fish scale rollers 31, so that no gap is formed between the two rotating rollers 32. This feeding method does not need to manually feed the carrots into the cutting device one by one, but can realize batch feeding. Meanwhile, the carrots will not deviate and jam in the feeding channel when fed in batches.

[0046] As a further scheme of the present application, the feeding mechanism comprises two rollers 42 rotatably arranged on the rack 1. The rollers 42 are matched with a conveying belt 41 in rotation. The rack 1 is fixed with a sixth motor 43. One roller 42 is installed on the output end of the sixth motor 43 and is driven to rotate by the sixth motor 43.

[0047] In this embodiment, the sixth motor 43 is electrically connected to an external power source through a wire, and the start of the sixth motor 43 can drive the roller 42 to rotate. The outer periphery of the roller 42 cooperates with the conveyor belt 41 to drive the roller 42 to rotate, and the carrot pieces cut by the blade 24 fall on the roller 42 and are output outward through the roller 42. In addition, a guide plate 44 fixed on the rack 1 is arranged at one end of the conveyor belt 41, so that the material can be conveniently output outward through the guide plate 44. In addition, baffles 45 fixed on the rack 1 are arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt 41, so that the carrot pieces falling on the conveyor belt 41 can be prevented from falling outward from both sides of the conveyor belt 41.

[0048] The working principle of the present application is as follows: when in use, a plurality of carrots are added into the feeding hopper 28, and the carrots are sequentially fed into the barrel 3 through the feeding mechanism. The push plate 6 moves to push the carrots in the barrel 3 to the port of the barrel 3 through the pushing mechanism. At this time, the pneumatic clamp 7 is started to clamp the carrots at the port. The barrel 3 is rotated through the first rotating mechanism to adjust the rotation angle of the carrots in the barrel 3. The movable frame 2 is adjusted in pitch and inclination through the first pitching mechanism to adjust the pitch angle of the carrots. The orientation and direction of the carrot section in the barrel 3 are changed in the three-dimensional space. The fourth motor 22 is started to drive the third rotating shaft 23 to rotate and drive the blade 24 to rotate at high speed to cut the carrots. The fourth motor 22 is rotated through the second rotating mechanism to change the inclination angle of the blade 24. The blade 24 is moved and adjusted in pitch and inclination through the action of the adjusting seat 14 moving through the guide rail mechanism and the blade 24 moving and adjusting in pitch and inclination through the action of the pitching mechanism of the pitching frame 18 to change the cutting angle of the blade 24 to the carrots, so as to meet the cutting block use of irregularly shaped carrots. At the same time, the cutting use of carrot pieces of different shapes can be realized, which is no longer limited to cubic blocks. Polygonal pieces such as pentagonal, hexagonal, diamond, trapezoidal, wavy, star-shaped or irregular polyhedron can be produced.

[0049] The working process of cutting diamond-shaped pieces is as follows: S1, first, the carrots are pushed to the end of the barrel 3 and clamped by the pneumatic clamp 7; S2, rotate the blade 24 to 45°, and pitch the barrel 3 to -10°; S3, the first air cylinder 5 pushes the carrots to feed 30mm, and the blade 24 remains 45° rotation cutting; S4, the barrel 3 is rotated around the Z axis for three times and 90° each time, and the blade 24 remains 45° rotation cutting to cut the carrots to generate a diamond-shaped section; S5, the first air cylinder 5 pushes the carrots to feed 30mm, and the blade 24 is zeroed to a vertical state to cut the carrots to generate diamond-shaped pieces; S6, repeat steps S3-S5 until the carrot material is exhausted.

[0050] The above examples are exemplary, rather than limiting, and thus the technical solutions of the present application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present application, and all such technical solutions are encompassed within the scope of the present application.
