Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automatic gluten cutting and skewering machine technology, specifically to an automatic gluten cutting and skewering machine. Background Technology

[0002] Gluten skewers are a common type of skewered barbecue snack on the market. Before grilling, they are usually sliced ​​or cut in half to ensure even grilling. The half-cut method involves creating staggered cuts on both sides of the gluten stick. Current methods for processing gluten sticks involve placing the gluten stick on a simple half-cutting device, then operating the cutting blades on both sides to make the cuts. After cutting, the gluten stick is removed from the skewer and then manually stretched along the bamboo skewer to a certain length.

[0003] Cutting and unfolding are two important steps in the processing of gluten bars. Existing simple cutting equipment has a simple design and lacks a guarantee of linear movement of the blades. When the blades move quickly for cutting, they are prone to deviation, resulting in unstable cutting and uneven cuts of gluten bars. In addition, the two-step processing method with manual labor as the main method has problems such as high labor costs, uneven unfolding and shaping, and low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gluten cutting mechanism and an automatic cutting and skewering machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] The present invention provides a gluten cutting mechanism, wherein the cutting mechanism includes a left cutting blade group and a right cutting blade group disposed on a plate frame, wherein the left cutting blade group and the right cutting blade group each include a row of several cutting blades;

[0007] The frame includes two upright boards and an upper flat board and a lower flat board. Both upright boards are provided with a feeding port, which is used to feed gluten sticks or bamboo skewers.

[0008] Both the upper and lower plates are provided with cutting grooves. The cutter slides through the upper and lower cutting grooves and cuts the side of the gluten bar. The gluten bar is retained as a solid part for threading bamboo skewers along the center line. The cutting groove of the lower plate is provided with an elongated hole.

[0009] As an improvement, the cutter has two spaced blades, the cutting edges of the two blades forming a V-shaped opening, the tips of the V-shaped opening being overlapping concave arc-shaped cutting edges, which perform circumferential cutting on the side of the rib bar.

[0010] As an improvement, the flower cutting mechanism also includes a left cam group, a right cam group, a left cam guide rod group, a right cam guide rod group, a left cutter pushing mechanism, and a right cutter pushing mechanism;

[0011] The left cam group pushes the left cam guide rod group, the left cam guide rod group pushes the left cutter group, the right cam group pushes the right cam guide rod group, the right cam guide rod group pushes the right cutter group, the left cutter pushing mechanism pushes the left cutter group towards the center, and the right cutter pushing mechanism pushes the right cutter group towards the center.

[0012] As an improvement, the left cam group and the right cam group are symmetrically arranged, each including several spirally distributed and fixedly connected cam blocks. The left cam group and the right cam group are both controlled to rotate by motor A, which is fixed to the plate frame.

[0013] The left cam guide rod group and the right cam guide rod group are symmetrically arranged, each including a row of several rotatable guide rods. The several rotatable guide rods are pushed sequentially by the cam group, and the several rotatable guide rods pass through the elongated hole and push the cutter of the cutter group sequentially.

[0014] The left and right cutting blade pushing mechanisms are symmetrically arranged and each includes a motor B, a guide rail, and a push plate. The motor B controls the push plate to slide along the guide rail, and the guide rail and motor B are fixed to the plate frame.

[0015] An automatic gluten cutting and skewering machine includes a gluten cutting mechanism and a skewering mechanism, wherein the skewering mechanism is installed on one side of the cutting mechanism.

[0016] The skewer-making mechanism includes a skewer hopper, a skewer-pushing toothed disc on the front side of the lower opening of the skewer hopper, a skewer-supporting brush wheel on the rear side, a skewer groove plate at the lower part of the skewer hopper, and bamboo skewers in the skewer hopper can fall into the skewer groove of the skewer groove plate. A movable skewer-pushing toothed plate is provided in the skewer groove, and the skewer-pushing toothed plate pushes the bamboo skewers into the gluten bar between the left cutting knife group and the right cutting knife group.

[0017] As an improvement, the toothed disc has two parts, which rotate synchronously under the control of motor C; the toothed plate for pushing the tooth is moved under the control of motor D; and the toothed brush wheel for holding the tooth is rotated under the control of motor E.

[0018] As an improvement, a feeding mechanism and a picking mechanism are also included. The feeding mechanism and the picking mechanism are both installed on the other side of the flower cutting mechanism. The feeding mechanism includes a movable material box, which is controlled to move and feed gluten bars by several cylinders. The picking mechanism includes electrically controlled grippers for moving and picking up the gluten bars.

[0019] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are as follows: Initially, the left and right cutting blade groups are closed. When operation begins, the left and right cam groups rotate, and the left and right cam guide rod groups open the left and right cutting blade groups first. Then, under the control of the cylinder, the movable material box of the feeding mechanism feeds the gluten bar from the feed port into the middle of the left and right cutting blade groups. Then, the left and right cutting blade pushing mechanisms simultaneously push the left and right cutting blade groups towards the middle to complete the staggered cutting of the gluten bar on both sides. The left and right cutting blade pushing mechanisms then retract.

[0020] The cutting groove and the closing groove ensure that the blade always moves in a straight line and closes tightly, preventing blade deviation and making the gluten bar cutting stable and uniform.

[0021] Bamboo skewers in the skewer hopper of the skewer-threading mechanism fall one by one into the skewer slot under the combined rolling of the skewer-pushing toothed plate and the skewer-supporting brush wheel. The bamboo skewers are then pushed into the feed inlet by the skewer-pushing toothed plate and inserted into the cut gluten sticks (with the bamboo skewers protruding). Then, the left cam guide rod group and the right cam guide rod group open the cutters of the left and right cutter groups in sequence from front to back. During the sequential opening process, the skewer-pushing toothed plate continues to push the bamboo skewers in at a preset speed, completing the unfolding of the gluten sticks from front to back. Finally, the gripper of the material-retrieving mechanism moves into the feed inlet and removes the gluten sticks.

[0022] This gluten cutting mechanism uses a sliding groove to ensure that the cutter always moves in a straight line and closes tightly, preventing cutter deviation and making the gluten bar cut stably and evenly.

[0023] This automatic cutting and skewering machine features a cutting mechanism that automatically cuts the gluten sticks in an alternating pattern, followed by a skewering mechanism that automatically skewers and unfolds the gluten sticks. This integrated automated processing significantly saves manpower compared to existing manual processing methods, ensures the consistency of the unfolded gluten sticks, and greatly improves processing efficiency and product quality. It has high practical and promotional value. Attached Figure Description
