Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food production technology, specifically to a new type of glutinous rice cake cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Ciba, or glutinous rice cake, is a traditional Chinese food made by steaming and pounding glutinous rice. It is characterized by its aroma, sweetness, and stickiness, with a delicate and refreshing flavor that appeals to all ages. It is primarily popular in southern China and some northern regions. The traditional method of making ciba involves steaming the glutinous rice, placing it in a mortar, and repeatedly pounding it with a wooden stick or mallet. After pounding, the mixture is then shaped by hand into roughly equal-sized balls.

[0003] Currently, the processing of glutinous rice cakes involves placing steamed and mashed rice cakes into an extruder and manually cutting them at the extrusion nozzle to shape them. This method is inefficient and makes it difficult to ensure that the rice cakes are of uniform size. Even some extruders with automatic cutting functions only have a single cutter at the extrusion nozzle. During cutting, the end of the rice cake furthest from the nozzle can easily shift, resulting in irregularly shaped rice cakes.

[0004] Moreover, glutinous rice cakes are generally hard and sticky, making it very laborious to cut them by hand.

[0005] Therefore, a new type of glutinous rice cake cutting machine is proposed to address the current shortcomings. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned technology and provide a new type of glutinous rice cake cutting machine.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by the present invention is a novel glutinous rice cake cutting machine: including a mounting base, a drive motor and an execution unit;

[0008] The mounting base is vertically provided with a mounting bracket, and the drive motor is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket;

[0009] The actuator includes a drive disk, a bearing, and a cutting blade. The drive disk is fixedly connected to the drive end of a drive motor. An arc-shaped groove is provided on one side of the drive disk. The bearing is slidably disposed in the arc-shaped groove. A limiting plate that cooperates with the bearing is provided on the mounting bracket. A connecting shaft is installed inside the bearing. Adjustment mechanisms connected to the connecting shaft are symmetrically provided on both sides of the drive disk. A sleeve is rotatably provided on the connecting shaft. The sleeve is connected to the cutting blade through a connecting rod.

[0010] It also includes a linkage mechanism, the two ends of which are connected to a sleeve and a mounting bracket, respectively.

[0011] As an improvement, the mounting base is a plate-shaped structure, and the mounting base is fixedly connected to the glutinous rice cake machine by bolts.

[0012] As an improvement, the drive motor and drive disk are located on opposite sides of the mounting bracket.

[0013] As an improvement, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment rod and a spring. Sliding sleeves are provided at both ends of the adjustment rod. The adjustment rod is arranged parallel to both sides of the bearing and connected to the drive disk through the sliding sleeves. A connecting member connected to the connecting shaft is provided between the adjustment rods. A limiting ring is provided in the middle of the adjustment rod. The spring is sleeved on the adjustment rod and its two ends abut against the limiting ring and the sliding sleeve, respectively.

[0014] As an improvement, the connecting rod is connected to the sleeve by a pin, and there is a moving distance between the connecting rod and the sleeve and the connecting rod is arranged parallel to the axis of the sleeve.

[0015] As an improvement, the linkage mechanism includes a first link, a second link, and a third link. The first link is fixedly mounted to the mounting base, the two ends of the second link are hinged to the first link and the third link respectively, and the other end of the third link is fixedly connected to the sleeve.

[0016] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are:

[0017] 1. The machine uses a drive motor fixed to the mounting base as the drive mechanism, a drive disk as the actuator, and a sleeve that can rotate with the drive disk, along with a linkage mechanism, to drive the cutting blade and cut the glutinous rice cake. At the same time, the adjustment mechanism on the drive disk can coordinate the cutting blade with the glutinous rice cake machine's outlet to ensure the cutting effect of the glutinous rice cake.

[0018] 2. Through the cooperation of the drive disc and the adjustment mechanism, the cutting blade can make a straight downward cut with the glutinous rice cake machine outlet, ensuring the cutting effect of the glutinous rice cake. At the same time, because the cooperation adopts a rotary cutting method, the problem of glutinous rice cake sticking to the cutting blade can be avoided.

[0019] 3. The overall structure of the cutting machine is simple and easy to implement, which can greatly improve the cutting efficiency of glutinous rice cakes. At the same time, by using frequency conversion speed regulation to control the drive motor, the cutting speed adjustment needs can be greatly met, and the weight of the glutinous rice cakes can be accurately controlled.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the invention, not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0029] In the description of the embodiments of the invention, it should be noted that if terms such as "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," or "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of the invention is in use, they are only for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the invention. Furthermore, terms such as "first," "second," and "third" are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "sag" does not imply that the component must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0031] In the description of the embodiments of the invention, "a plurality of" means at least two.

[0032] In the description of the embodiments of the invention, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0033] Combined with appendix Figure 1-7 The novel glutinous rice cake cutting machine drives the connecting shaft 8 by driving the drive disk 4, thereby enabling the cutting blade 6 to rotate around the axis of the drive disk 4, thus realizing the cutting operation of glutinous rice cake.

[0034] The glutinous rice cake cutting machine includes a mounting base 1, a drive motor 2, and an execution unit. Specifically, the mounting base 1 is a plate-shaped structure, and the mounting base 1 is fixedly connected to the glutinous rice cake machine by bolts.

[0035] In actual implementation, while the mounting base 1 is fixedly connected to the glutinous rice cake machine, it ensures that the cutting blade 6 cooperates with the discharge port of the glutinous rice cake machine during rotation, thereby realizing the cutting operation of glutinous rice cake.

[0036] The mounting base 1 is vertically provided with a mounting bracket 3, and the drive motor 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 3. Specifically, the drive motor 2 and the drive disk 4 are located on both sides of the mounting bracket 3. The mounting bracket 3 is used to fix the drive motor 2. At the same time, the mounting bracket 3 is provided with a strip hole to facilitate the adjustment of the installation height of the drive motor 2, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height of the cutting blade 6.

[0037] The actuator includes a drive disk 4, a bearing 5, and a cutting blade 6. The drive disk 4 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the drive motor 2, and the drive motor 2 drives the drive disk 4 to rotate. The drive disk 4 has an arc-shaped groove 7 on one side, and the bearing 5 is slidably disposed in the arc-shaped groove 7. The mounting frame 3 is provided with a limiting plate 20 that cooperates with the bearing 5. In operation, through the cooperation of the bearing 5 with the arc-shaped groove 7 and the limiting plate 20, the bearing 5 can move within a certain range along the arc-shaped groove 7 to ensure that the cutting blade 6 is in a vertical state and cooperates with the discharge port of the glutinous rice cake machine, thus ensuring the cutting operation of the glutinous rice cake.

[0038] A connecting shaft 8 is installed inside the bearing 5. A sleeve 9 is rotatably mounted on the connecting shaft 8. The sleeve 9 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 8. The sleeve 9 is connected to the cutting blade 6 via a connecting rod 10. Specifically, the connecting rod 10 is connected to the sleeve 9 via a pin 16. The connecting rod 10 and the sleeve 9 have a moving distance and are arranged parallel to the axis of the sleeve 9. This ensures the space for the cutting blade 6 to move and avoids collisions between the cutting blade 6 and other components in the glutinous rice cake cutting machine during operation, thus ensuring the operation of the cutting machine.

[0039] Meanwhile, in specific implementation, the end of the connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to the pin 16 by a nut, which can realize the rotation adjustment of the connecting rod 10, thereby realizing the adjustment of the angle of the cutting blade 6.

[0040] The drive disk 4 is symmetrically provided with adjustment mechanisms connected to the connecting shaft 8 on both sides;

[0041] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment rod 11 and a spring 12. Sliding sleeves 13 are slidably provided at both ends of the adjustment rod 11. The adjustment rod 11 is parallel to both sides of the bearing 5 and connected to the drive disc 4 via the sliding sleeves 13. The cooperation between the adjustment rod 11 and the sliding sleeves 13 guides the movement of the bearing 5. A connecting member 14 connected to the connecting shaft 8 is provided between the adjustment rods 11 to prevent the bearing 5 from rotating during movement. A limiting ring 15 is provided in the middle of the adjustment rod 11. The spring 12 is sleeved on the adjustment rod 11, and its two ends abut against the limiting ring 15 and the sliding sleeves 13, respectively.

[0042] In practical use, when the cutting blade 6 cooperates with the glutinous rice cake machine's outlet to cut the glutinous rice cake into pieces, the sliding of the bearing 5 within the arc-shaped groove 7 ensures the cooperation between the cutting blade 6 and the outlet. The adjusting rod 11 ensures the smooth movement of the bearing 5 within the arc-shaped groove 7. Simultaneously, the spring 12 enables the cutting blade 6 to be reset, ensuring the cooperation between the cutting blade 6 and the outlet, thus guaranteeing the glutinous rice cake cutting effect.

[0043] It also includes a linkage mechanism, the two ends of which are connected to the sleeve 9 and the mounting bracket 3, respectively.

[0044] Specifically, the linkage mechanism includes a first linkage 17, a second linkage 18, and a third linkage 19. The first linkage 17 is fixedly mounted to the mounting base 1. Both ends of the second linkage 18 are hinged to the first linkage 17 and the third linkage 19, respectively. The other end of the third linkage 19 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 9.

[0045] In practice, the linkage mechanism prevents the sleeve 9 from rotating with the connecting shaft 8 during the operation of the cutting machine, thus preventing the cutting blade 6 from rotating with the connecting shaft 8. This further ensures the proper fit between the cutting blade 6 and the glutinous rice cake machine's outlet.

[0046] Meanwhile, in practical implementation, by controlling the speed of the drive motor 2, the weight of the glutinous rice cake after cutting can be basically controlled.

[0047] The drive mechanism is a drive motor fixed on the mounting base, which works in conjunction with a drive disc as the actuator. A sleeve that can rotate with the drive disc is used in conjunction with a linkage mechanism to drive the cutting blade, thereby cutting the glutinous rice cake. At the same time, the adjustment mechanism set on the drive disc can make the cutting blade work with the glutinous rice cake machine's outlet to ensure the cutting effect of the glutinous rice cake.

[0048] By cooperating with the drive disc and the adjustment mechanism, the cutting blade can make a straight downward cut with the glutinous rice cake machine's outlet, ensuring the cutting effect of the glutinous rice cake. At the same time, because the cooperation adopts a rotary cutting method, the problem of glutinous rice cake sticking to the cutting blade can be avoided.

[0049] The cutting machine has a simple overall structure and is easy to implement. It can greatly improve the cutting efficiency of glutinous rice balls. At the same time, by using frequency conversion speed regulation to control the drive motor, it can greatly meet the needs of cutting speed adjustment and also ensure precise control of the weight of the glutinous rice balls.

[0050] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the spirit of the invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
