The collecting box 6 is used to collect the sliced ​​konjac slices, and its height is reasonably designed to facilitate users to take out the konjac slices.

[0033] The thickness-controllable konjac slicer of the utility model is as follows when in use:

[0034] Preparation:

[0035] The konjac is placed between the push plate 70 and the pressing assembly 2. The position of the movable plate 41 is adjusted, and the movable plate 41 is driven to move left and right by the first hydraulic cylinder 40 to preset the thickness of the slices required.

[0036] Clamping the konjac: The third hydraulic cylinder 22 in the pressing assembly 2 drives the pressing plate 21 to move downward, and contacts and stably clamps the konjac through the roller 23 to prevent it from moving during the slicing process.

[0037] Slicing operation: The second hydraulic cylinder 71 in the pushing mechanism drives the push plate 70 to move leftward, pushing the konjac toward the cutter assembly 3. When the konjac contacts the contact plate 42 on the movable plate 41, the pressure sensor detects the pressure change to ensure that the konjac is in close contact with the contact plate 42. At this time, the cooperation of the measuring plate 43 and the scale 10 can display the thickness of the slice. The fourth hydraulic cylinder 34 in the cutter assembly 3 drives the knife holder 31 and the cutter 33 to move downward to slice the konjac.

[0038] Collecting and slicing: The cut konjac slices fall into the collecting box 6 below through the strip-shaped feeding port 11.

[0039] Repeat operation: After completing one slicing operation, all parts are reset to prepare for the next slicing operation.
