[0027] 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.

[0028] 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 transfer weighing production lines, evisceration production lines, and poultry carcass cutting production lines.

[0029] In the poultry carcass cutting production line, it is usually necessary to cut the wings, legs, breasts, tails, etc. of the poultry carcasses. When cutting the wings, it is usually necessary to cut the wings into wing tips, wing middles, and wing roots to meet people's different needs.

[0030] In the process of cutting the wing, the wing tip is usually cut off first, then the middle of the wing is cut, and finally the wing root is cut. When cutting the middle of the wing, the skin and flesh at the connection between the wing root and the middle of the wing are usually pre-cut first, and then the middle of the wing is cut. In the prior art, when cutting the middle of the wing, the poultry carcass is usually suspended on a conveyor line with the neck facing down and the feet facing up, the chest of the poultry carcass is facing forward and the back is facing backward. Driven by the conveyor line, the poultry carcass passes through the cutting mechanism and the middle of the wing is cut off. However, in this cutting method, since the legs of the poultry carcass are suspended, the guide mechanism will produce resistance to the wings of the poultry, causing the poultry to be tilted forward, which will cause inaccurate cutting of the wing when cutting the middle of the wing.

[0031] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a poultry mid-wing cutting device, in which a mid-wing cutting mechanism and a linkage mechanism are provided. The linkage mechanism connects the chain on the conveyor line and the mid-wing cutting mechanism, and can synchronously transmit the operating power of the chain on the conveyor line to the mid-wing cutting mechanism, thereby realizing the synchronous operation of the conveyor line and the mid-wing cutting mechanism. In this way, the upper and lower parts of the poultry carcass can move forward synchronously along the conveyor line, thereby improving the accuracy of mid-wing cutting.

[0032] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a poultry wing cutting device, such as Figure 1As shown, the device comprises a wing cutting mechanism 1 and a linkage mechanism 2, wherein the linkage mechanism 2 connects the chain on the conveyor line and the wing cutting mechanism 1 to synchronously transmit the operating power of the chain on the conveyor line to the wing cutting mechanism 1, thereby realizing synchronous operation of the conveyor line and the wing cutting mechanism 1. In this way, the upper and lower parts of the poultry carcass can synchronously move forward along the conveyor line, thereby improving the accuracy of wing cutting.

[0033] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the wing cutting mechanism 1 comprises a left wing cutting mechanism 11, a right wing cutting mechanism 12, and a supporting unit 13 arranged between the left wing cutting mechanism 11 and the right wing cutting mechanism 12, which are arranged in sequence along the poultry carcass conveying line. A left cutting knife 111 is arranged on the left wing cutting mechanism 11 for cutting the left wing; a right cutting knife 121 is arranged on the right wing cutting mechanism 12 for cutting the right wing. Preferably, the left cutting knife 111 and the right cutting knife 121 are both long serrated knives.

[0034] The supporting unit 13 is used to support poultry carcasses, and the supporting surface of the supporting unit 13 gradually rises along the poultry conveying direction. Figure 2 and 3 The direction of the middle arrow is the conveying direction of the poultry carcass. Along the conveying direction, the lower part of the poultry carcass first contacts the supporting unit 13, and as the supporting surface gradually rises, the poultry carcass is supported by the supporting unit 13. The poultry carcass first passes through the left wing cutting mechanism 11 to be cut in the left wing. After the left wing cutting is completed, the poultry carcass enters the right wing cutting mechanism 12 to be cut in the right wing. After the right wing cutting is completed, the poultry carcass continues to move forward along the conveyor line to the next cutting process.

[0035] Continue to refer Figures 2 to 5 The left wing cutting mechanism 11 is provided with a left guide plate 113, a left pressure plate 114, a first transmission mechanism 112 and a guide rail 16. The left guide plate 113 is vertically arranged, and its thickness is adapted to the size of the connection joint between the wing and the wing root of the poultry. When the left wing is cut, the connection joint between the wing and the wing root of the left wing is just stuck on the left guide plate 113. The left pressure plate 114 is arranged above the left guide plate 113, and is arranged with a gap between the left guide plate 113. The first transmission mechanism 112 is arranged below the left guide plate 113. The guide rail 16 is arranged on both sides of the first transmission mechanism 112, and its extension direction is the same as the poultry conveying direction. The left cutting knife 111 extends along the conveying direction of the poultry carcass, and the left cutting knife 111 is arranged on the left guide plate 113. Preferably, the first transmission mechanism 112 is a chain transmission mechanism, and a plurality of guide assemblies 15 are arranged on the first transmission mechanism 112. The first transmission mechanism 112 can drive the guide assemblies 15 to perform cyclic motion along the transmission direction of the chain.

[0036] like Figure 5As shown, the guide assembly 15 includes a first guide portion 151 and second guide portions 152 arranged on both sides of the first guide portion 151, and a guide groove 153 is arranged on the first guide portion 151. When the guide assembly 15 moves upward along with the first transmission mechanism 112, the guide groove 153 opens upward, and at this time, the left guide plate 113 is arranged in the guide groove 153, and the guide assembly 15 can move along the left guide plate 113.

[0037] The right wing cutting mechanism 12 is provided with a right guide plate 123, a right pressure plate 124, a second transmission mechanism 122 and a guide rail 16. The right guide plate 123 is vertically arranged, and its thickness is adapted to the size of the connection joint between the wing and the wing root of the poultry. When the right wing is cut, the connection joint between the wing and the wing root of the right side is just stuck on the right guide plate 123. The right pressure plate 124 is arranged above the right guide plate 123, and is arranged with a gap between the right guide plate 123. The second transmission mechanism 122 is arranged below the right guide plate 123. The guide rail 16 is arranged on both sides of the second transmission mechanism 122, and its extension direction is the same as the poultry conveying direction. The right cutting knife 121 extends along the conveying direction of the poultry carcass, and the right cutting knife 121 is arranged on the right guide plate 123. Preferably, the second transmission mechanism 122 is a chain transmission mechanism, and a plurality of guide assemblies 15 are arranged on the second transmission mechanism 122. The second transmission mechanism 122 can drive the guide assemblies 15 to perform cyclic motion along the transmission direction of the chain.

[0038] In one embodiment, the wing cutting mechanism 1 further comprises a right guide rod 14, which is arranged on the opposite side of the left wing cutting mechanism 11. When cutting the left wing, the right guide rod 14 can guide the movement of the right wing portion to facilitate the right wing portion to enter the right wing cutting mechanism 12.

[0039] like Figure 6 Shown and referenced Figure 2 The linkage mechanism 2 includes a large sprocket 20 meshing with the chain on the conveyor line, the large sprocket 20 is connected to the first transmission assembly 21 arranged on the frame, the first transmission assembly 21 can be a chain transmission assembly, the first transmission assembly 21 is connected to the second transmission assembly 22, and the second transmission assembly 22 is connected to the second transmission mechanism 122. In this way, the power on the conveyor line can be transmitted to the wing cutting mechanism 1, so that the first transmission mechanism 112 and the second transmission mechanism 122 of the wing cutting mechanism 1 move synchronously with the conveyor line.

[0040] When the poultry carcass enters the cutting device, the supporting unit 13 supports the carcass of the poultry, and the left wing of the poultry enters between the left guide plate 113 and the left pressure plate 114, and the connection joint between the wing and the wing root is stuck on the left guide plate 113. At this time, the first guide part 151 of the guide assembly 15 is close to the side of the supporting unit 13, which can generate a force on the wing root of the poultry in the opposite direction of the poultry conveying direction, so that the wings of the poultry are unfolded in the direction opposite to the conveying direction. When the poultry moves to the left cutting knife 111, the left cutting knife 111 cuts the connection between the left wing and the wing root joint, which can improve the cutting accuracy of the wing. After that, the poultry carcass enters the right wing cutting mechanism 12 to cut the right wing.
