Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a bone and meat separation device in the pet food industry, in particular to a bone and meat separator. Background Art
[0002] In the pet food industry, there are many types of pet food. The meat on meat pet food needs to be separated from the meat with bones, which requires the use of a meat and bone separator.
[0003] In the prior art, a meat and bone separator usually places meat and bones in a cavity with a filter screen, and uses a screw or other device to squeeze the separated meat out of the holes of the filter screen. However, the filter screen may also be squeezed by the bones during filtering, causing the holes of the filter screen to become blocked or skewed, thereby reducing the filtering effect.
[0004] Moreover, the outside of the filter is usually provided with horizontal and vertical fixing blocks to fix the filter, causing the meat squeezed out from above the filter to be stuck in the grooves formed by the fixing blocks and difficult to fall off automatically, making it difficult to squeeze out the separated meat from above, resulting in the need for manual cleaning.
[0005] In addition, since the filter screen is easily damaged by squeezing, the extrusion force of the meat and bone separator on the meat and bones is insufficient, so the meat and bones need to be cut and separated multiple times, which is inefficient and too cumbersome. Utility Model Content
[0006] One advantage of the utility model is that it provides a meat and bone separator, which does not use a filter. The meat and bone separator includes a separation cylinder, and the separation cylinder includes a meat outlet grille. The meat outlet grille will not be squeezed and damaged due to a large amount of meat output, and the meat outlet grille arranged on the separation cylinder has a large area, so the meat can be separated more quickly, and there are fewer accumulation points on the surface of the separation cylinder, so the meat is easy to fall off automatically.
[0007] One advantage of the present invention is that it provides a bone and flesh separator, in which the second spiral cutter arranged in the separation chamber is different in size and propulsion direction from the first spiral cutter in the cutting chamber. While ensuring that the bone and flesh are still pushed from the inlet to the outlet, the time for the bone and flesh to pass through the meat outlet grid is prolonged and a greater extrusion capacity is generated, thereby better separating the bone and flesh and reducing the number of times the bone and flesh are cut and separated.

Therefore, the above terms should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0027] It is to be understood that the term "one" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element may be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element may be multiple, and the term "one" should not be understood as a limitation on the quantity.
[0028] refer to Figures 1 to 3 A bone and flesh separator according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below. The bone and flesh separator includes a separator body 10, a separation cylinder 20, a cutting assembly 30 and a driving member 40.
[0029] The separator body 10 has an inlet 101 and a cutting chamber 102, and the inlet 101 is connected to the cutting chamber 102. The separation cylinder 20 has a separation chamber 201 and an outlet 202 connected to the separation chamber 201. The cutting assembly 30 is installed in the cutting chamber 102 and the separation chamber 201, and the driving member 40 is installed in the separator body 10, and the cutting assembly 30 is drivably connected to the driving member 40.
[0030] The separation cylinder 20 includes a meat outlet rack 21 and a plurality of partition blocks 22. The partition blocks 22 are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the meat outlet rack 21 to divide the meat outlet rack 21 into small holes. When the bone and meat enter the cutting chamber 102 and the separation chamber 201 from the inlet 101, the bone and meat are cut and separated by the cutting assembly 30 in the cutting chamber 102 and the separation chamber 201, so that the meat is separated from the meat outlet rack 21, and the large pieces of bone are discharged from the outlet 202.
[0031] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the partition blocks 22 are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the meat outlet rack 21, and at this time there is no place for accumulation on the outer wall of the meat outlet rack 21, so that the meat separated from the holes of the meat outlet rack 21 can fall automatically.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the bone and flesh separator is placed horizontally. Preferably, the opening direction of the inlet 101 is upward to facilitate the user to put in the bone and flesh, and the opening direction of the outlet 202 is downward to facilitate the automatic falling of the bones. The cutting cavity 102 is arranged to be parallel to the horizontal plane to reduce the influence of gravity on the bone and flesh, so that the bone and flesh are pushed horizontally in the cutting cavity.
[0033] Preferably, a feed hopper 11 is formed above the inlet 101 of the separator body 10. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the bottom end of the feed hopper 11 is connected to the inlet 101, and the feed hopper 11 has an upwardly inclined slope, that is, the feed hopper 11 enlarges the opening of the inlet 101, making it easier for users to pour a large amount of bones and meat at one time.
[0034] Preferably, an inclined plate 23 is disposed outside the outlet 202 of the separation cylinder 20. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one end of the inclined plate 23 is connected to the outside of the outlet 202, and the inclined plate 23 has a downwardly inclined slope, so that the bones fall along the inclined plate 23 after being discharged, which is convenient for collecting large bones and part of the meat.
[0035] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, the cutting assembly 30 includes a screw rod 31 and a spiral cutter 32. The screw rod 31 crosses the cutting cavity 102 and the separation cavity 201. The spiral cutter 32 is spirally wound around the screw rod 31, and one end of the screw rod 31 is drivably connected to the driving member 40, so that the spiral cutter 32 rotates to cut the bone and flesh.
[0036] Preferably, the spiral cutter 32 includes a first spiral cutter 321 and a second spiral cutter 322. The first spiral cutter 321 is disposed in the cutting cavity 102, and the second spiral cutter 322 is disposed in the separation cavity 201. The first spiral cutter 321 cuts the bone and flesh and pushes it into the separation cavity 201.
[0037] Preferably, the second spiral cutter 322 is smaller in size than the first spiral cutter 321 , so that the thrust generated by the first spiral cutter 321 is greater than that of the second spiral cutter 322 , thereby ensuring that the bone and flesh are always pushed toward the outlet 202 .
[0038] The second spiral cutter 322 can separate the bone and meat and push them toward the outlet 202. Since the thrust of the first spiral cutter 321 is greater than the thrust of the second spiral cutter 322, the bone and meat entering the separation chamber 201 are greater than the capacity of the separation chamber 201, so that the bone and meat are squeezed in the separation chamber 201, and then squeezed toward the meat outlet rack 21 under the action of pressure, so that the meat is squeezed out of the separation chamber 201.
[0039] More preferably, the second spiral cutter 322 can separate the bone and flesh and push them toward the cutting cavity 102. Since the thrust of the first spiral cutter 321 is greater than the thrust of the second spiral cutter 322, the bone and flesh move slowly in the separation cavity 201 and are subjected to a greater squeezing force, thereby allowing the bone and flesh to be separated more finely.
[0040] It can be understood by those skilled in the art that when the bone and flesh enter the cutting chamber 102 from the inlet 101, the first spiral cutter 321 cuts the bone and flesh and pushes it toward the separation chamber 201, and the bone and flesh are cut and pushed by the second spiral cutter 322. The spiral direction of the second spiral cutter 322 is different from that of the first spiral cutter 321, so that the second spiral cutter 322 pushes the bone and flesh toward the cutting chamber 102. Because the thrust of the second spiral cutter 322 is less than that of the first spiral cutter 321, the bone and flesh slowly move toward the outlet 202 in the cutting chamber 102, and the thrusts in two directions simultaneously cause the bone and flesh in the middle of the two thrusts to be squeezed toward the meat outlet fence 21, thereby better separating the bone and flesh.
[0041] Preferably, if Figure 1 As shown, the meat and bone separator includes a storage device 50, which includes a plurality of containers 51 and a turntable 52. The containers 51 are placed on the turntable 52 and rotate with the turntable 52, so that at least one of the containers 51 is located below the outlet 202 and at least one of the containers 51 is located below the meat outlet grille 21.
[0042] Preferably, the turntable 52 is configured to be able to rotate in the horizontal direction, and at least four containers 51 can be placed on the turntable 52. When two containers 51 are filled with the bones and the meat respectively, the turntable 52 can rotate to quickly replace the empty container 51 with the full container 51.
[0043] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The advantages of the present invention have been fully and effectively realized. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments, and the embodiments of the present invention may be deformed or modified in any way without departing from the principles.
