Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of beef production technology, specifically to an energy-saving beef tendon removal device for processing beef products. Background Technology

[0002] Beef products are foods made primarily from beef. They are rich in nutrients and have diverse flavors. However, the tendons and fascia on beef are difficult to chew and swallow after cooking. Also, cooking the beef tendons and fascia together with the beef can affect the texture. Therefore, the tendons and fascia on beef are usually removed before processing.

[0003] Currently, the removal of beef fascia is mainly done manually or by machine. The machine method is mainly used in some beef product processing plants. It usually works by using a cutting blade and a shaft. The shaft rotates and pulls the fascia on the surface of the beef to initially separate it from the beef. Then, the cutting blade cuts from the separation point. At this time, some of the cut fascia will stick to the shaft, affecting the subsequent pulling of the beef fascia. Therefore, the workers need to clean the sticky fascia. However, cleaning during processing requires stopping the machine, which affects the efficiency of removing beef fascia. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an energy-saving beef fascia removal device for beef product processing, which solves the problem that fascia cleaning affects removal efficiency.

A rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the moving plate, the connecting shaft is connected to the rotating shaft through the slots, a transmission belt is provided on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is connected to the annular groove through the transmission belt. The two ends of the needle roller pass through the two side chambers respectively.

[0010] Preferably, the reciprocating lead screw is provided with limit rods on both the front and rear sides, and both ends of the two limit rods penetrate the moving plate and are fixedly connected to the inner side walls of the housing.

[0011] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes a top shaft, two top shafts are respectively fixedly connected to the two side chambers 1 away from each other. The needle roller has two chambers 2 on both sides. The two chambers 2 have multiple sliding grooves on both sides. The two ends of the needle roller are slidably connected to moving rods. The two moving rods have their close ends penetrating into the chambers 2 and are rotatably connected to multiple connecting rods on their outer peripheries. The ends of the multiple connecting rods away from the moving rods are rotatably connected to sliders. The sliders are disposed in the sliding grooves. The outer side of the sliders is fixedly connected to a cutting blade 2. The two sides of the needle roller have multiple through grooves. The two ends of the needle roller have limit grooves. The inner side walls of the two limit grooves are fixedly connected to springs. The other end of the springs is fixedly connected to a push ring. The push ring is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the moving rod.

[0012] Preferably, each of the plurality of sliders is rotatably connected to a roller, and the plurality of sliders are rotatably connected to a slide groove via the rollers.

[0013] Preferably, both ends of the plurality of cutting blades are slidably connected within the groove.

[0014] Preferably, both top shafts are on the same axis as the moving rod and their cross-sectional area is smaller than that of the moving rod.

[0016] This invention provides an energy-saving beef tendon removal device for beef product processing. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This invention uses a needle roller and a cutting blade in the removal mechanism to remove fascia from beef. The removed fascia adheres to the needle roller. At this time, the drive motor in the moving mechanism drives the reciprocating screw to rotate and drives the needle roller to move to both sides along the reciprocating screw. At the same time, the rotation of the connecting shaft drives the rotating shaft to rotate, and the transmission belt drives the needle roller to rotate. Thus, the needle roller can rotate and pull the fascia while moving to one side. When half of the needle roller is removed from the top of the beef, the fascia on the surface of that part of the needle roller can be cleaned. At this time, the other half of the needle roller will move to the beef to continue pulling the fascia. Thus, the needle roller does not affect the removal of fascia during cleaning, ensuring the efficiency of fascia removal.

[0018] 2. This invention features a cleaning mechanism. When one end of the needle roller moves into one of the chambers, the corresponding top shaft inserts into the needle roller and pushes the moving rod. As the moving rod moves, it pushes the slider through multiple connecting rods, causing the cutting blade two to move away simultaneously. This allows the cutting blade two to cut the wrapped fascia. As the needle roller rotates, the fascia is thrown off the needle roller for cleaning. Furthermore, the rotation of the cleaning brush can also clean the remaining fascia on the surface of the needle roller, thus ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0019] 3. This invention utilizes a single drive motor to drive both the rotation and reciprocating movement of the drive needle roller, making the equipment structure more compact. Compared to using multiple drive sources, it can effectively reduce equipment energy consumption, thus better aligning with the green and environmentally friendly concept of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Please see the appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 3This invention provides an energy-saving beef tendon removal device for beef product processing, including a shell 1, a removal mechanism 2 inside the shell 1, a moving mechanism 3 in the lower part of the shell 1, and cleaning mechanisms 4 on both sides inside the shell 1.

[0033] The rejection mechanism 2 includes a conveyor table 201. Two conveyor tables 201 are arranged on the front and rear sides of the outer shell 1. Cutting blades 206 are fixedly connected to the sides of the two conveyor tables 201 that are close to each other. A needle roller 202 is arranged in the middle of the outer shell 1 and is arranged between the two cutting blades 206. An electric push rod 203 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the outer shell 1. The output end of the electric push rod 203 passes through the inner top wall of the outer shell 1 and is fixedly connected to a pressure plate 204.

[0034] The beef is placed face down on the front conveyor table 201. The front conveyor table 201 can transport the beef to be processed to the needle roller 202. At the same time, by activating the electric push rod 203, the pressure plate 204 connected to the output end can be moved down and a certain pressure can be applied to the beef, so that the beef can make full contact with the needle roller 202 when it passes through the needle roller 202. Then, the needles evenly distributed on the needle roller 202 can pierce into the fascia on the beef. As the needle roller 202 rotates, it can pull the fascia to initially separate from the beef. Then, under the action of the cutting blade 206, the fascia and beef can be cut and separated.

[0035] Please see the appendix Figure 2 The pressure plate 204 is rotatably connected to evenly distributed pressure rollers 205.

[0036] By setting multiple pressure rollers 205, the beef can be moved when the pressure plate 204 applies pressure, thus ensuring the stability of beef conveying.

[0037] Please see the appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 The moving mechanism 3 includes an annular groove 310, which is formed on the outer periphery of the middle part of the needle roller 202. The outer shell 1 has two chambers 301 on both sides. A drive motor 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one chamber 301. A reciprocating screw 303 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 302. The other end of the reciprocating screw 303 passes through the inner wall of the other chamber 301. A moving plate 306 is threadedly connected to the outer periphery of the reciprocating screw 303. The upper part of the moving plate 306 is engaged in the annular groove 310.

[0038] By starting the drive motor 302, the reciprocating screw 303 connected to the output end can be rotated. When the reciprocating screw 303 rotates, it can drive the movable plate 306 connected to the outer periphery to move along the reciprocating screw 303. Since the upper part of the movable plate 306 is engaged in the annular groove 310 in the middle of the needle roller 202, the movement of the movable plate 306 can drive the connected needle roller 202 to move accordingly, thereby adjusting the position of the needle roller 202.

[0039] Please see the appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 A drive gear 304 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of both ends of the reciprocating lead screw 303. A driven gear 305 meshes with the upper side of one drive gear 304. A connecting shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the driven gear 305. The connecting shaft 307 passes through the moving plate 306. A slot 309 is provided around the connecting shaft 307. A rotating shaft 311 is rotatably connected inside the moving plate 306. The connecting shaft 307 is connected to the rotating shaft 311 through the slot 309. A transmission belt 312 is provided on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 311. The rotating shaft 311 is connected to the annular groove 310 through the transmission belt 312. The two ends of the needle roller 202 pass through the two side chambers 301 respectively.

[0040] When the reciprocating screw 303 rotates, it drives the drive gear 304 connected at both ends to rotate. When the drive gear 304 rotates, it drives the driven gear 305 meshing on one side to rotate. Thus, the driven gear 305 drives the connecting shaft 307 to rotate. Since the connecting shaft 307 has multiple slots 309 and the rotating shaft 311 is engaged in the slots 309 on the connecting shaft 307, the rotation of the connecting shaft 307 can drive the rotating shaft 311 to rotate through the slots 309. When the rotating shaft 311 rotates, it can drive the connected needle roller 202 to rotate under the action of the transmission belt 312. Furthermore, since the connecting shaft 307 passes through the moving plate 306 and the rotating shaft... 311 is rotatably connected within the moving plate 306, so the rotation of the connecting shaft 307 will not affect the normal movement of the moving plate 306. This allows the needle roller 202 to rotate and pull the fascia while moving towards one side chamber 301 of the outer shell 1. When half of the needle roller 202 moves to one side chamber 301 for cleaning, the other half of the needle roller 202 will move to the underside of the beef to continue pulling the fascia. This allows the needle roller 202 to be cleaned without affecting the normal removal of the fascia. In addition, the rotation and movement of the needle roller are driven by a drive motor, which can effectively reduce the energy consumption of the equipment and is more in line with the green and environmentally friendly concept of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0041] Please see the appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 The reciprocating screw 303 is provided with limit rods 308 on both the front and rear sides. Both ends of the two limit rods 308 pass through the moving plate 306 and are fixedly connected to the inner side walls of the outer casing 1.

[0042] By setting a limit rod 308, the movable plate 306 can be limited, thereby preventing the movable plate 306 from rotating and ensuring the stability of the movable plate 306's movement.

[0043] Please see the appendix Figure 6 Appendix Figure 8 and attached Figure 9 The cleaning mechanism 4 includes a top shaft 401, with two top shafts 401 fixedly connected to the two side chambers 301 respectively, away from the side walls. The needle roller 202 has two side chambers 402, each with multiple sliding grooves 409 on both sides. The needle roller 202 has sliding rods 404 slidably connected to both ends. The two sliding rods 404 have their near ends penetrating into the two side chambers 402 and are rotatably connected to multiple connecting rods 407 on their outer circumferences. The multiple connecting rods 407 are located away from the side walls. One end of the moving rod 404 is rotatably connected to a slider 408, which is set in a groove 409. A cutting blade 411 is fixedly connected to the outside of the slider 408. Multiple through grooves 417 are opened on both sides of the outer periphery of the needle roller 202. Limiting grooves 403 are opened at both ends of the needle roller 202. Springs 406 are fixedly connected to the inner sidewalls of the two limiting grooves 403. A push ring 405 is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 406. The push ring 405 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the moving rod 404.

[0044] When half of the needle roller 202 has completely moved into one of the chambers 301, the corresponding top shaft 401 will insert into the needle roller 202 and push the moving rod 404 to move. When the moving rod 404 moves, it will drive the connected multiple connecting rods 407 to move. When the connecting rods 407 move, they will drive the connected sliders 408 to move in the groove 409. Since the length of the connecting rods 407 is constant and the sliders 408 are limited by the groove 409, the movement of the moving rod 404 can cause the connecting rods 407 to rotate in a direction away from each other, and push the corresponding multiple sliders 408 away simultaneously. When the multiple sliders 408 move away simultaneously, it can... This allows the multiple corresponding cutting blades 411 to move away simultaneously, so that the cutting blades 411 extend from the through groove 417 and cut the fascia wrapped on the needle roller 202. After the fascia is cut, the cut fascia can be thrown out when the needle roller 202 rotates. When the needle roller 202 moves to the other side, the top shaft 401 inside the half of the needle roller 202 will be pulled out from the needle roller 202. Since the moving rod 404 will be compressed when it is pressed, it will drive the push ring 405 to compress the spring 406. Therefore, under the action of the spring 406, the push ring 405 will be pushed to drive the moving rod 404 to reset and pull the cutting blades 411 back into the needle roller 202.

[0045] Please see the appendix Figure 7Each slider 408 has a roller 410 rotatably connected inside, and each slider 408 is rotatably connected to the slide groove 409 through the roller 410.

[0046] By providing rollers 410, the sliding friction of slider 408 in groove 409 can be changed to rolling friction, thereby making slider 408 move more smoothly.

[0047] Please see the appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 Multiple cutting blades 411 are slidably connected at both ends within the groove 409.

[0048] By allowing the second cutting blade 411 to slide within the groove 409, the groove 409 can limit the movement of the second cutting blade 411, ensuring the stability of its movement.

[0049] Please see the appendix Figure 3 Both top shafts 401 are on the same axis as the moving rod 404 and their cross-sectional area is smaller than that of the moving rod 404.

[0050] By placing the top shaft 401 and the moving rod 404 on the same axis and having a cross-sectional area smaller than that of the moving rod 404, it can be ensured that the top shaft 401 can push the moving rod 404 to move when the needle roller 202 moves.

[0051] Please see the appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 10 Both chambers 301 are rotatably connected to gear discs 412 on their lower sides. Both gear discs 412 mesh with drive gears 304. Both gear discs 412 are fixedly connected to drive shafts 416 at their far ends. Both drive shafts 416 are provided with transmission belts 413 on their outer periphery. Both drive shafts 416 are connected to driven shafts 414 through transmission belts 413. Both driven shafts 414 are penetrated and engaged with the inner side wall of the outer shell 1 at their near ends. Both driven shafts 414 are provided with cleaning brushes 415 on their inner side. The cleaning brushes 415 are provided on the outer periphery of the needle roller 202.

[0052] When the reciprocating screw 303 rotates, it causes the drive gears 304 connected at both ends to rotate. When the two drive gears 304 rotate, they can drive the meshing gear discs 412 to rotate. When the gear discs 412 rotate, they can drive the connected drive shaft 416 to rotate. When the drive shaft 416 rotates, it can drive the connected driven shaft 414 to rotate through the transmission belt 413. When the driven shaft 414 rotates, it can drive the connected cleaning brush 415 to rotate. Therefore, after the cutting blade 411 cuts the fascia on the needle roller 202, the cleaning brush 415 can clean the remaining fascia on the needle roller 202, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0053] Working principle: In actual use, starting the drive motor 302 drives the reciprocating screw 303 connected to the output end to rotate, which in turn drives the moving plate 306 to move the needle roller 202 back and forth along the reciprocating screw 303. At the same time, the rotation of the reciprocating screw 303 drives the drive gear 304 to rotate, which in turn drives the meshing driven gear 305 to drive the connecting shaft 307 to rotate. When the connecting shaft 307 rotates, it drives the rotating shaft 311 to rotate through the slot 309, and under the action of the transmission belt 312... The needle roller 202 is driven to rotate. When the beef transported by the conveyor 201 comes into contact with the needle roller 202, the needle roller 202 will pierce into the fascia and pull the fascia for initial separation. Then, under the action of the cutting blade 206, the pulled fascia can be cut off to remove the beef fascia. As the needle roller 202 rotates, it will move. When one end of the needle roller 202 moves out from the inside of the device, the fascia adhering to the surface of one end of the needle roller 202 can be cleaned, while the other end continues to move into the device for processing, so as not to affect the normal removal of fascia.

[0054] When half of the needle roller 202 moves completely into one side chamber 301, the corresponding top shaft 401 pushes the moving rod 404 to move, and under the action of the connecting rod 407, pushes the corresponding multiple sliders 408 away simultaneously, so that the connected multiple cutting blades 411 can extend out from the through groove 417 and cut the fascia wrapped on the needle roller 202. As the needle roller 202 rotates, the cut fascia is thrown out. When the needle roller 202 moves to the other side, the top shaft 401 in the half of the needle roller 202 will be pulled out of the needle roller 202, and the moving rod 404 will be reset under the action of the spring 406 and pull the cutting blades 411 back into the needle roller 202. At the same time, when the drive gear 304 rotates, it will drive the gear plate 412 to drive the drive shaft 416 to rotate, and under the action of the transmission belt 413, it will drive the driven shaft 414 to rotate, so that the cleaning brush 415 can rotate and further clean the remaining fascia on the needle roller 202.

[0055] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
