[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other arbitrarily.
[0027] In the related art, in the process of processing poultry carcasses, in order to improve the efficiency of processing and production, various processing production lines are usually used to process poultry carcasses, such as a transfer weighing production line, an evisceration production line, and a poultry carcass cutting production line.
[0028] In the poultry carcass cutting production line, it is usually necessary to cut the wings, legs, neck, breast, tail, etc. of the poultry carcasses to meet people's different needs.
[0029] However, when cutting the neck of the poultry, if the neck of the poultry is not stretched and clamped in place, the cutting of the neck of the poultry may be inaccurate, resulting in too little cutting of the neck of the poultry, and part of the neck may remain on the carcass of the poultry.
[0030] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a poultry neck cutting device, which includes two symmetrically arranged chain assemblies, and a clamping space for accommodating the poultry neck is formed between the two chain assemblies. The poultry neck enters the clamping space under the guidance of the guide unit and is clamped by the chain assemblies on both sides. No relative movement occurs between the poultry neck and the chain assemblies. The poultry neck has a good clamping effect, which can reduce the damage to the poultry neck caused by the stretching unit, so that the poultry neck maintains good quality after being cut; at the same time, when the cutting unit is cutting, it can accurately locate the cutting position and improve the cutting accuracy.
[0031] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a poultry neck cutting device, such as Figure 1As shown, the poultry neck cutting device includes a guide unit 20, a cutting unit 40 and a stretching unit 30. The guide unit 20 is arranged above the stretching unit 30, and the cutting unit 40 is arranged between the guide unit 20 and the stretching unit 30. When cutting the poultry neck, the poultry carcass is usually suspended on the conveyor line with the neck facing downward and the feet facing upward. At this time, the chest of the poultry carcass faces forward and the back faces backward. As the poultry carcass moves, the poultry neck enters between the guide units 20. The guide units 20 can guide the movement direction of the poultry neck to prevent the poultry neck from being offset, facilitate the poultry neck to enter the stretching unit 30, so that the poultry neck is clamped by the stretching unit 30 and the poultry neck is continuously stretched as the poultry carcass is continuously conveyed forward.
[0032] The guide unit 20 includes a guide plate 201 , an adjustment component 202 for fixing the guide plate 201 and adjusting the tilt angle of the guide plate 201 , and a guide groove 2010 is provided on the guide plate 201 .
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the arrow direction in the figure is the poultry conveying direction. Along the poultry conveying direction, the width of the guide groove 2010 first gradually decreases, and when it reaches the preset size, the preset size is maintained unchanged. Specifically, the preset size is compatible with the circumferential size of the poultry neck and is slightly larger than the circumferential size of the poultry neck. The guide groove 2010 at the entry end is large in size, which is convenient for the poultry neck conveyed along the conveying line to enter the guide groove 2010. After the poultry neck enters the guide groove 2010, the poultry neck is located in the guide groove 2010 and below the guide groove 2010, and the rest of the poultry carcass is located above the guide groove 2010.
[0034] In one embodiment, along the poultry conveying direction, the guide plate 201 includes a first section and a second section, and the first section is bent downward so that the poultry neck can enter the guide groove 2010. The guide plate 201 is arranged at an angle, and along the poultry conveying direction, the guide plate 201 gradually moves away from the stretching unit 30. That is, after the poultry neck enters the guide groove 2010, the end of the poultry neck will be clamped by the stretching unit 30. As the conveying line is conveyed forward, the guide plate 201 is continuously tilted upward, causing the guide plate 201 to move away from the stretching unit 30. At this time, the top surface of the guide plate 201 can support the poultry carcass, so that the poultry neck is continuously stretched, so that the poultry neck is in a taut state, and the connection position between the poultry neck and the spine is accurately located, so that the cutting unit 40 can accurately cut the poultry neck.
[0035] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 3As shown, the adjustment assembly 202 includes a first adjustment rod arranged on the frame 10, a locking sleeve is arranged at the top end of the first adjustment rod, a second adjustment rod is arranged on the locking sleeve, and the protruding end of the second adjustment rod is connected to the guide plate 201. The first adjustment rod is adjustably connected to the frame 10. Specifically, the bottom of the first adjustment rod is provided with an external thread, which can be threadedly connected to the frame 10. In order to facilitate the fixing of the first adjustment rod, a nut is also arranged on the first adjustment rod, and the nut is fixedly connected to the frame 10. The axial directions of the second adjustment rod and the first adjustment rod are perpendicular to each other. Therefore, by adjusting the distance of the top end of the first adjustment rod relative to the frame 10 in the vertical direction, the distance of the guide plate 201 from the frame 10 can be adjusted, and the inclination angle of the guide plate 201 can also be adjusted to adapt to poultry of different sizes and specifications, and accurately cut the necks of poultry of different sizes and specifications.
[0036] The stretching unit 30 includes two symmetrically arranged chain assemblies 301, which are arranged horizontally, and a clamping space for accommodating the poultry neck is formed between the two chain assemblies 301. The first driving unit 302 drives the two chain assemblies 301 to rotate simultaneously through the gear assembly to achieve the synchronous operation of the two chain assemblies 301. At this time, there is no relative movement between the poultry neck and the chain assembly 301, and the poultry neck has a good clamping effect, which can reduce the damage to the poultry neck caused by the stretching unit 30, so that the poultry neck after being cut maintains good quality. The chain assemblies 301 on both sides are clamped, and there is no relative movement between the poultry neck and the chain assembly 301. The poultry neck has a good clamping effect. When the cutting unit 40 is cutting, the poultry neck is fully stretched, and the cutting position can be accurately located to improve the cutting accuracy. Preferably, the first driving unit 302 can be a motor.
[0037] Along the poultry conveying direction, the cutting unit 40 is arranged downstream of the conveying direction. The cutting unit 40 includes a second driving unit and a disc knife transmission-connected to the second driving unit. The second driving unit can drive the disc knife to rotate to cut the poultry neck. Preferably, the second driving unit is a motor. The disc knife is tilted, and the tilt angle of the disc knife is the same as the tilt angle of the guide plate 201, so as to accurately cut the poultry neck. Preferably, the rotating surface of the disc knife is parallel to the guide plate 201, and the disc knife is arranged close to the bottom surface of the guide plate 201, so as to facilitate cutting off more poultry necks and prevent the poultry necks from remaining on the poultry carcass.
[0038] The poultry neck cutting device of the present application includes two symmetrically arranged chain assemblies 301. The two chain assemblies 301 operate synchronously, which can reduce the damage caused to the poultry neck by the stretching unit 30, so that the poultry neck after being cut maintains good quality; at the same time, the poultry neck is fully stretched, and when the cutting unit 40 is cutting, the cutting position can be accurately located, thereby improving the cutting accuracy.
