Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the overall structure of the chef machine, the upper and lower supports are core components that support the equipment and are key structures that ensure stability. The performance of the connecting piece, which serves as the connecting link between the upper and lower supports, directly determines the overall service life and safety and reliability of the chef machine. Currently, the industry uses traditional sheet metal processing methods for the processing of the upper and lower supports of the chef machine, that is, the support base material is first subjected to simple cutting and bending, and then a connecting piece is made from ordinary steel. The combination of the upper support and the lower support is achieved through welding or single bolt connection. However, there is a lack of targeted strengthening treatment, which leads to problems such as loose connection and structural deformation of the overall structure in a long-term high-frequency vibration environment, affecting the normal operation of the chef machine.
[0003] The existing technology generally has the problems of process simplification and insufficient performance control. Most schemes only perform basic cutting and forming on the upper and lower supports and then directly splice them together without optimizing the structure according to their working characteristics. As a result, the connection between the upper and lower supports is prone to wear and tear, elastic failure, or even breakage due to poor wear resistance and insufficient fatigue resistance when subjected to long-term alternating loads and friction, which shortens the service life of the connecting piece and significantly reduces the reliability and stability of the overall structure of the chef machine.
