Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sea cucumber processing technology, specifically to a nutrient-locking sea cucumber processing device and its processing technology. Background Technology

[0002] Sea cucumber, as a high-end nourishing food that is high in protein, low in fat, and rich in a variety of active nutrients, has seen its market demand rise year by year. Automated, standardized, and low-nutrient-loss processing technology has become the core development direction of the deep processing industry of sea cucumber. The core process of primary processing of sea cucumber is to open the stomach, remove the intestines, and clean the internal cavity. This process directly determines the integrity, taste, and nutrient retention of the finished sea cucumber product, and also restricts the processing efficiency of the entire production line.

[0003] Currently, there are still two main processing methods for sea cucumbers in China, both of which have obvious technical defects:

[0004] 1. The traditional manual processing method involves workers using knives to open up sea cucumbers, remove their internal organs, and rinse their cavities one by one. The inconsistent force and cutting positions during manual operation easily lead to problems such as cuts on the surface of the sea cucumbers, damage to the flesh, and the presence of internal organs. This not only damages the integrity of the sea cucumbers but also causes the loss of active nutrients such as polysaccharides and collagen. At the same time, manual processing is inefficient, labor-intensive, and poses hygiene and safety risks, making it impossible to meet the needs of large-scale production.

[0005] 2. While some existing automated gutting equipment has replaced manual operation, it still has many shortcomings: First, the soft sea cucumbers lack a fixed support structure, making them prone to shifting and slipping during transport. This leads to deviations in the gutting position and inconsistent cutting depths, severely damaging the sea cucumber meat and destroying its original shape. Second, the gutting blades, after long-term cutting of the sea cucumber's internal organs and mucus, easily accumulate gelatinous impurities on their surface. Simultaneously, the blades become continuously worn and dulled, tearing the sea cucumber meat instead of making a smooth cut, further exacerbating the breakage rate. Furthermore, existing equipment lacks a synchronous self-cleaning and self-sharpening structure, requiring manual shutdown to disassemble and clean the blades, significantly reducing production line continuity, increasing equipment maintenance costs, and failing to meet actual production needs. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fully nutritious, fresh-locking sea cucumber processing device and its processing technology to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a fully nutritious and fresh-locking sea cucumber processing device, comprising a support frame, on which a belt conveyor is installed for intermittent conveying of sea cucumbers; a water storage tank is provided on the lower side of the support frame; a fixed shell is fixed to the support frame; a motor is fixed to the fixed shell; a threaded rod is fixed to the output end of the motor; the threaded rod is bearing-connected to the fixed shell; the threaded rod is used to drive a gutting mechanism to move back and forth; the gutting mechanism is used to gut and clean the sea cucumbers; and a grinding mechanism is symmetrically fixed inside the fixed shell for grinding and cleaning the gutting mechanism.

[0008] Preferably, the belt conveyor has positioning seats fixed at equal intervals on the conveyor belt, and positioning pins are evenly fixed on the lower end face of the positioning seats. The height of the positioning seats is 5mm-10mm, and the surface of the positioning pins has a rough structure. The positioning seats and positioning pins can be used to position the sea cucumbers, which facilitates subsequent processing. The belt conveyor can also be used to transport the sea cucumbers intermittently.

[0009] Preferably, the water storage tank is equipped with an inverted "V" shaped filter screen, and the outer side of the water storage tank is also equipped with inclined guide plates at the opening positions on the left and right sides, with the ends of the guide plates located above the collection box. At the same time, the collection box is symmetrically distributed about the center line of the water storage tank. Through the function of the filter screen, impurities from the gutted sea cucumber can be filtered, thereby realizing the recycling of water. Furthermore, through the inverted "V" shape of the filter screen and the guiding effect of the guide plates, impurities can be collected in the collection box for subsequent processing.

[0010] Preferably, the opening mechanism includes a mounting bracket that is threadedly connected to the threaded rod, and the mounting bracket is slidably connected to the guide rod. The guide rod is fixed to the fixed shell, and the guide rod and the threaded rod are parallel to each other. The threaded rod can drive the mounting bracket to move. With the sliding guidance between the mounting bracket and the guide rod, the stability of the movement of the mounting bracket can be ensured.

[0011] Preferably, the mounting bracket is also symmetrically fixed with fixing rods at the front and back, and the fixing rods are also uniformly fixed with inclined protrusions. Through the above structure, a basic guarantee can be provided for the subsequent cleaning and polishing of the belly-opening knife.

[0012] Preferably, the lower end of the mounting frame is fixed with a fixing frame, and the width of the fixing frame at both ends is smaller than the width at the middle position. The fixing frame is symmetrically equipped with a gutting knife, and a nozzle is also fixed on the fixing frame. The nozzle is connected to the water storage tank through a conduit and a water pump. The fixing frame is also symmetrically connected with a rotatable scraper, and a torsion spring is connected between the scraper and the fixing frame. The gutting knife can be used to open the sea cucumber, and the fixing frame can be used to open the gutted sea cucumber. Combined with the scraper, the internal organs of the sea cucumber can be cleaned. The rinsing action of the nozzle can be used to rinse the gutted sea cucumber.

[0013] Preferably, the grinding mechanism includes a bracket symmetrically fixed in the fixed housing, with the bracket and the vertical rod being slidably connected, and the vertical rod and the movable frame being fixed to each other. At the same time, a first spring is fixed between the movable frame and the bracket. A round rod is also fixed on the movable frame, and the round rod is slidably connected to the fixed rod and the inclined protrusion. The sliding action between the bracket and the vertical rod can ensure the stability of the movement of the movable frame, and the elastic action of the first spring can provide a basic force for the automatic reset of the movable frame.

[0014] Preferably, the movable frame and the slider are slidably connected, and the slider and the movable frame are locked together by bolts. The slider and the elastic rubber plate are fixed to each other, and the elastic rubber plate and the polishing stone are fixed to each other. The polishing stone contacts the cutting tool to achieve the polishing effect. The sliding action between the movable frame and the slider allows for easy assembly and disassembly of the polishing stone. The elasticity of the elastic rubber plate ensures that the polishing stone and the cutting tool are in close contact, thereby guaranteeing the polishing effect on the cutting tool.

[0015] Preferably, the movable frame is also symmetrically connected with sliding rods, and the sliding rods are fixed to the silicone scraper. The silicone scraper and the cutting knife are slidably connected. At the same time, a second spring is fixed between the silicone scraper and the movable frame. With the above structure, impurities adhering to the surface of the cutting knife can be scraped off, ensuring the cleanliness of the cutting knife surface during polishing.

[0016] A nutrient-locking freshness processing technology for sea cucumber, the specific steps of which are as follows:

[0017] S1: Select 1-2 sea cucumbers and put them into the sea cucumber pool for temporary holding. This can encourage the sea cucumbers to expel impurities from their bodies and ensure the cleanliness of the final product.

[0018] S2: After temporary holding, the sea cucumbers are placed in the positioning seat by hand and pressed so that the positioning needle is inserted into the sea cucumber body to achieve the positioning of the sea cucumber for subsequent processing.

[0019] S3: The fixed sea cucumbers are intermittently transported to the fixed shell for processing via a belt conveyor. With the existing vision positioning device, the positioning seat can be accurately moved to the processing position each time. With the help of the motor and threaded rod, the gutting mechanism can be moved to realize the gutting and evisceration of the sea cucumbers and the initial rinsing. With the help of the grinding mechanism, the gutting knife in the gutting mechanism can be cleaned and ground to effectively ensure the sharpness of the gutting knife and thus ensure the normal operation of the device.

[0020] S4: After the sea cucumbers have been gutted and cleaned, they are transferred to a cleaning machine for cleaning. The machine is cleaned at least twice, and the vibrating screen in the cleaning tank helps to shake off and clean the sand and dirt stuck inside the sea cucumbers, ensuring their cleanliness.

[0021] S5: The cleaned sea cucumbers have been placed in a paper vacuum cooker for cooking. The vacuum environment lowers the boiling point of water, allowing the sea cucumbers to be slowly heated at a low temperature. This process avoids the instantaneous damage of the collagen network on the surface of the sea cucumbers by high temperatures, effectively locking in heat-sensitive active ingredients such as mucopolysaccharides and saponins. At the same time, it removes some air from the tissues, laying the foundation for subsequent water absorption and expansion, and preventing the phenomenon of the outside being rotten and the inside being raw.

[0022] S6: The sea cucumbers that have been steamed under negative pressure are transferred to a pressure cooker for secondary cooking and seasoning. High-pressure cooking can quickly break down the cell wall structure and denature and coagulate the protein, ensuring that the sea cucumbers are thoroughly cooked and have a firm and elastic texture. This step can significantly improve the bioavailability of nutrients and give the product the stable taste required for ready-to-eat consumption.

[0023] S7: After cooking, individually package the sea cucumbers and place them in a freezer at -30°C for quick freezing.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0025] 1. This fully nutritious and fresh-locking sea cucumber processing device and its processing technology features a belt conveyor with equally spaced positioning seats. These are paired with rough-structured positioning needles to pierce and fix the sea cucumbers. On one hand, the rough positioning needles significantly increase the friction between the sea cucumber and the positioning seats, completely solving the problems of slippage, deviation, and detachment during the transport of soft sea cucumbers. This ensures precise alignment of the visual positioning mechanism, guaranteeing that the cutting knife can make a standard cut along the midline of the sea cucumber's abdomen each time, avoiding misaligned cuts that could damage the sea cucumber's flesh. On the other hand, after processing, the separation of the sea cucumber and the positioning needles creates micro-ventilation holes on the surface, breaking the closed structure of the sea cucumber's dense outer skin. During subsequent high-temperature cooking, the broth can quickly penetrate the sea cucumber's internal cavity, significantly improving the efficiency of flavor absorption and optimizing the finished product's taste. Simultaneously, these micro-holes do not damage the overall shape and internal nutritional structure of the sea cucumber, ensuring its appearance integrity.

[0026] 2. This fully nutritious, fresh-locking sea cucumber processing device and its processing technology adopt an irregularly shaped fixed frame structure that is wide in the middle and narrow at both ends. After the sea cucumber is gutted, it can automatically open the abdominal incision, preventing the incision from closing and obscuring the internal organs, thus providing ample operating space for the gutting operation. At the same time, it is equipped with a rotatable scraper with a torsion spring, which uses a flexible elastic connection method to replace the traditional rigid scraper. When the scraper comes into contact with the sea cucumber's internal organs, it can adaptively buffer and avoid them, and automatically adjust the scraping force according to the thickness of the internal organs, eliminating damage to the soft tissue inside the sea cucumber cavity caused by rigid compression, and completely preserving the core active nutrients such as sea cucumber collagen and sea cucumber saponins. It truly achieves fully nutritious, fresh-locking processing. The entire gutting process is fully automated and requires no manual intervention, increasing processing efficiency by more than 3 times.

[0027] 3. This fully nutritious, fresh-locking sea cucumber processing device and its processing technology feature a symmetrical front and rear grinding mechanism. This allows for simultaneous cleaning of impurities and sharpening of the cutting blades during normal gutting operations, eliminating the need for machine downtime. First, a silicone scraper slides close to the blade under the action of a second spring, scraping away sea cucumber mucus and visceral gel adhering to the blade in real time, preventing impurities from clumping and affecting the cutting effect. Second, through the intermittent compression between the inclined protrusion on the fixed rod and the round rod, combined with the first spring, the grinding stone performs dynamic up-and-down grinding. Unlike traditional static single-sided grinding, dynamic reciprocating grinding covers the entire working surface of the blade, resulting in higher grinding uniformity and continuously maintaining blade sharpness, ensuring that the sea cucumber is always cut smoothly rather than torn. The entire blade maintenance process is performed simultaneously with the gutting process, eliminating the need for manual blade disassembly, significantly reducing equipment downtime and labor maintenance costs.

[0036] The technical solutions of 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.

[0037] Please see Figures 1-7 This invention provides a technical solution: a fully nutritious and fresh-locking sea cucumber processing device, including a support frame 1, a belt conveyor 2 installed on the support frame 1 for intermittent conveying of sea cucumbers, a water storage tank 3 provided on the lower side of the support frame 1, a fixed shell 4 fixed on the support frame 1, a motor 5 fixed on the fixed shell 4, a threaded rod 6 fixed to the output end of the motor 5, the threaded rod 6 being connected to the fixed shell 4 by a bearing, the threaded rod 6 being used to drive the gutting mechanism 8 to move back and forth, the gutting mechanism 8 being used to achieve the gutting and cleaning function of sea cucumbers, and a grinding mechanism 9 symmetrically fixed in the front and back of the fixed shell 4, the grinding mechanism 9 being used for the grinding and cleaning function of the gutting mechanism 8.

[0038] The belt conveyor 2 has positioning seats 201 fixed at equal intervals on the conveyor belt, and positioning pins 202 are evenly fixed on the lower end face of the positioning seats 201. The height of the positioning seats 201 is 5mm-10mm, and the surface of the positioning pins 202 has a rough structure.

[0039] When using this nutrient-locking fresh sea cucumber processing device, such as Figures 1-7As shown, sea cucumbers are first placed manually into the groove of the positioning seat 201 in the temporary holding tank. The positioning needle 202 is then inserted into the sea cucumber body by pressing, thus fixing the sea cucumber. The rough surface of the positioning needle 202 increases friction, which can prevent the sea cucumber from separating from the positioning needle 202 and ensure the stability of the sea cucumber positioning. After the sea cucumber is processed, the sea cucumber can be separated from the positioning needle 202, which can form holes on the surface of the sea cucumber, allowing it to absorb more flavor when cooked. After the sea cucumber is fixed, the belt conveyor 2 can be started to transport the sea cucumber. With the existing visual positioning mechanism, when the positioning seat 201 carrying the sea cucumber moves to cooperate with the opening mechanism 8, the opening and gutting of the sea cucumber can be achieved.

[0040] A filter screen 301 with an inverted "V" shape is fixed inside the water storage tank 3. Guide plates 302 are also fixed obliquely at the openings on the left and right sides of the water storage tank 3, with the ends of the guide plates 302 located above the collection tank 303. The collection tanks 303 are symmetrically distributed about the center line of the water storage tank 3. The opening mechanism 8 includes a mounting bracket 801 threadedly connected to the threaded rod 6. The mounting bracket 801 is slidably connected to the guide rod 7, and the guide rod 7 is fixed to the fixed shell 4. The guide rod 7 and the threaded rod 6 are parallel to each other. The mounting bracket 801... The mounting bracket 801 is also symmetrically fixed with a fixing rod 802, and the fixing rod 802 is also evenly fixed with inclined protrusions 803; the mounting bracket 801 is fixed with a fixing frame 804 at the lower end, and the fixing frame 804 is narrower at both ends than at the middle position. The fixing frame 804 is symmetrically mounted with a cutting knife 805, and the fixing frame 804 is also fixed with a nozzle 806. The nozzle 806 is connected to the water storage tank 3 through a conduit and a water pump. The fixing frame 804 is also symmetrically connected with a rotatable scraper 807, and a torsion spring is connected between the scraper 807 and the fixing frame 804.

[0041] When the belt conveyor 2 moves the sea cucumber to cooperate with the opening mechanism 8, such as Figures 1-7As shown, at this time, the threaded rod 6 is driven to rotate by the motor 5. Through the threaded connection between the threaded rod 6 and the mounting bracket 801, the mounting bracket 801 can be moved. With the sliding guidance between the mounting bracket 801 and the guide rod 7, the stability of the movement of the mounting bracket 801 can be ensured. The movement of the mounting bracket 801 can synchronously drive the opening knife 805 to move. When the opening knife 805 comes into contact with the sea cucumber, it can realize the opening of the sea cucumber. After the opening knife 805 opens the sea cucumber, the fixing bracket 804 and the sea cucumber opening knife are then connected. The sliding contact mechanism on both sides, with the width at both ends of the fixing frame 804 being smaller than the width at the middle, allows the fixing frame 804 to support both sides of the sea cucumber after it has been gutted, facilitating the removal of the intestines. Furthermore, when the mounting frame 801 moves, it simultaneously moves the scraper 807. When the scraper 807 contacts the sea cucumber, it scrapes away the internal organs. The scraper 807 is flexibly connected to the fixing frame 804 via a torsion spring, effectively preventing damage to the sea cucumber due to excessive force during scraping, thus ensuring the quality of the gut removal process.

[0042] During the process of gutting and eviscerating sea cucumbers, water in the storage tank 3 is pumped to the nozzle 806 via a water pump and conduit. The nozzle 806 washes the gutted sea cucumbers, and the impurities washed away fall into the storage tank 3 under the action of the water flow. Combined with the function of the filter screen 301, impurities can be filtered. Due to the inverted "V" structure of the filter screen 301, the filtered impurities can slide to both sides along the inverted "V" structure of the filter screen 301 and enter the collection box 303 through the guiding action of the guide plate 302 for subsequent processing.

[0043] The polishing mechanism 9 includes a bracket 901 symmetrically fixed in the fixed housing 4, with the bracket 901 and the vertical rod 902 slidably connected. The vertical rod 902 is fixed to the movable frame 903. A first spring 904 is fixed between the movable frame 903 and the bracket 901. A round rod 905 is also fixed on the movable frame 903, with the round rod 905 slidably connected to the fixed rod 802 and the inclined protrusion 803. The movable frame 903 is slidably connected to the slider 906, and the slider 906 is also slidably connected to the movable frame 903. The components are locked together by bolts, and the slider 906 is fixed to the elastic rubber plate 907. At the same time, the elastic rubber plate 907 is fixed to the polishing stone 908. The polishing stone 908 contacts the cutting knife 805 to achieve the polishing effect. The movable frame 903 is also symmetrically connected to the upper and lower sliding rods 909, and the sliding rods 909 are fixed to the silicone scraper 910. The silicone scraper 910 and the cutting knife 805 are slidably connected. At the same time, a second spring 911 is fixed between the silicone scraper 910 and the movable frame 903.

[0044] During the process of gutting and cleaning sea cucumbers, such as Figures 1-7As shown, the movement of the mounting bracket 801 can synchronously drive the fixed rod 802, the inclined protrusion 803, and the gutting knife 805 towards the movable frame 903. When the fixed rod 802 contacts the round rod 905, the gutting knife 805 is in contact with the silicone scraper 910. Through the elastic action of the second spring 911, the silicone scraper 910 and the gutting knife 805 can be in close contact. As the silicone scraper 910 continues to move, the sliding action between the silicone scraper 910 and the gutting knife 805 can clean the impurities adhering to the surface of the gutting knife 805, ensuring the cleanliness of the surface of the gutting knife 805. After being cleaned, the gutting knife 805 continues to move. When the gutting knife 805 contacts the polishing stone 908, the polishing stone 908 can polish the gutting knife 805, thereby ensuring the sharpness of the gutting knife 805, thus providing a basic guarantee for the continuous gutting and degumming of sea cucumbers.

[0045] Furthermore, when the cutting tool 805 contacts the polishing stone 908, the mounting bracket 801 continues to drive the fixed rod 802, the inclined protrusion 803, and the cutting tool 805 to move. When the inclined protrusion 803 contacts the round rod 905, the movable bracket 903 is forced to move the polishing stone 908 upwards relative to the cutting tool 805. Combined with the sliding guide effect between the vertical rod 902 and the bracket 901, the stability of the movement of the movable bracket 903 and the polishing stone 908 is ensured. When the inclined protrusion 805 contacts the round rod 905... When the 03 is separated from the round rod 905, the movable frame 903 and the polishing stone 908 can be reset under the elastic action of the first spring 904. This allows the cutting blade 805 to move back and forth relative to the polishing stone 908. Through the sliding action between the inclined protrusion 803 and the round rod 905 and the elastic action of the first spring 904, the polishing stone 908 moves up and down relative to the cutting blade 805, thus effectively ensuring the polishing effect of the polishing stone 908 on the cutting blade 805.

10. A nutrient-locking freshness-preserving sea cucumber processing technology, applied to the nutrient-locking freshness-preserving sea cucumber processing device described in claim 9, characterized in that, The specific steps are as follows: S1: Select 1-2 sea cucumbers and put them into the sea cucumber pool for temporary holding to encourage them to expel impurities from their bodies and ensure the cleanliness of the final product. S2: After temporary rearing, the sea cucumbers are placed in the positioning seat (201) and pressed by hand so that the positioning needle (202) is inserted into the sea cucumber body to achieve the positioning of the sea cucumber for subsequent processing; S3: The fixed sea cucumbers are intermittently transported to the fixed shell (4) by the belt conveyor (2) for processing. With the existing visual positioning device, the positioning seat (201) can be accurately moved to the processing position each time. With the action of the motor (5) and the threaded rod (6), the opening mechanism (8) can be driven to move, thereby realizing the opening and gutting of the sea cucumbers and the initial rinsing. With the action of the grinding mechanism (9), the opening knife (805) in the opening mechanism (8) is cleaned and ground, effectively ensuring the sharpness of the opening knife (805) and thus ensuring the normal operation of the device. S4: After the sea cucumbers have been gutted and cleaned, they are transferred to a cleaning machine for cleaning. The machine is cleaned at least twice, and the vibrating screen in the cleaning tank helps to shake off and clean the sand and dirt stuck inside the sea cucumbers, ensuring their cleanliness. S5: The cleaned sea cucumbers are placed in a paper negative pressure cooker for cooking. The vacuum environment lowers the boiling point of water, allowing the sea cucumbers to be slowly heated at a low temperature. This avoids the instantaneous damage of the collagen network on the surface of the sea cucumbers by high temperature, effectively locking in the heat-sensitive active ingredients such as mucopolysaccharides and saponins, and expelling some air from the tissues. S6: The sea cucumbers that have been steamed under negative pressure are transferred to a pressure cooker for secondary cooking and seasoning. High-pressure cooking quickly breaks down the cell wall structure, denatures and coagulates the proteins, and ensures that the sea cucumbers are thoroughly cooked and have a firm and elastic texture. S7: After cooking, the sea cucumbers are individually packaged and then placed in a freezer at -30°C for quick freezing.
