[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 order to meet people's demand for different parts of poultry, the poultry carcass cutting production line usually needs to cut the wings, legs, breasts, tails, etc. of the poultry carcasses. However, when cutting the breast and spine of poultry, there is usually a deviation in the cutting of the breast, resulting in the meat that should be cut from the breast being cut from the spine.

[0030] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a poultry breast and spine removal assembly, which includes a breast removal device and a spine removal device arranged along the poultry conveyor line. The spine removal device is arranged downstream of the breast removal device, which can prevent the breast from shifting during the cutting process, achieve precise cutting of the breast, and prevent the problem of meat on the breast being cut onto the spine.

[0031] Before the poultry carcass is cut of the breast, the wings and neck have been removed. At this time, there are two openings on the poultry carcass, namely, the first opening located between the two legs in the lower abdomen and the second opening located at the connection between the neck and the spine. Before the poultry carcass is cut of the breast and spine, the poultry carcass is usually hung on the conveyor line with the second opening facing downward and the feet facing upward. At this time, the chest of the poultry carcass is facing forward, the back is facing backward, and the first opening is arranged forward at a certain angle downward.

[0032] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a poultry breast and spine removal assembly, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a breast removal device 1 and a spine removal device 2; the arrow direction in the figure is the conveying direction of the poultry carcass, the breast removal device 1 and the spine removal device 2 are respectively arranged along the poultry conveying line, and the spine removal device 2 is arranged downstream of the breast removal device 1. The breast removal device 1 is used to accurately cut the breast of the poultry to prevent the problem of cutting the meat on the breast to the spine; the spine removal device 2 is used to cut the poultry carcass after the breast is removed and remove the spine of the poultry.

[0033] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the breast-removing device 1 includes a first guide mechanism 11, a first cutting mechanism 13, a pressing unit 14 and a supporting unit 15 arranged on a first frame 10. Along the conveying direction of the poultry carcass, the first cutting mechanism 13 is arranged downstream of the first guide mechanism 11, the pressing unit 14 and the supporting unit 15 are arranged in the middle of the first guide mechanism 11, and the pressing unit 14 is located above the supporting unit 15. When the poultry carcass runs to the front end of the breast-removing device 1 along the conveying direction, the supporting unit 15 supports the bottom of the poultry carcass so that the poultry carcass enters the conveying space in a forward tilted posture. At this time, the first opening is basically located in the vertical direction, which can facilitate the pressing unit 14 to enter the inside of the poultry carcass from the first opening. As the poultry carcass is continuously conveyed forward, the pressing unit 14 will pass through the second opening, and then the pressing unit 14 will generate a downward pressing force on the breast part of the poultry carcass to position the breast of the poultry carcass and prevent the breast part from being offset when cutting.

[0034] In one embodiment, the first guide mechanism 11 includes a symmetrically arranged first guide plate 111, and a conveying space for the poultry carcasses to pass through is formed in the middle of the first guide mechanism 11. Along the conveying direction of the poultry carcasses, the first guide plate 111 includes a first guide segment, a second guide segment, and a third guide segment connected in sequence, the third guide segment extends in the horizontal direction, and the first guide segment and the second guide segment are respectively bent downward, so that the upper surface of the first guide plate 111 presents a gradually rising trend, so as to facilitate the poultry carcasses to enter the conveying space.

[0035] The first guide mechanism 11 further comprises an adjusting assembly 112, which is used to adjust the height of the first guide plate 111 and the width of the conveying space to adapt to poultry carcasses of different sizes and achieve a better cutting effect.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the first cutting mechanism 13 includes first cutting units symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveying space, and the first cutting unit includes a first disc knife 131 and a first driving unit 132 that drives the disc knife to rotate, and the first driving unit 132 can be a motor. In order to completely and conveniently cut the breast of the poultry, the pressing unit 14 is provided with a long hole extending along the conveying direction of the poultry carcass, and the edge parts of the two disc knives are respectively accommodated in the long holes.

[0037] Continue to refer Figure 2The supporting unit 15 is arranged in the conveying space. The supporting unit 15 includes supporting parts that are symmetrical and obtusely arranged. A concave supporting space is formed between the two supporting parts for supporting the poultry carcasses. Along the conveying direction of the poultry carcasses, the supporting part includes a first supporting section 151, a second supporting section 152 and a third supporting section 153 that are connected in sequence. The third supporting section 153 extends in the horizontal direction. The end of the third supporting section 153 extends to the bottom of the first cutting mechanism 13. The first supporting section 151 and the second supporting section 152 are bent downward respectively. The supporting space gradually changes from low to high to facilitate supporting the bottom of the poultry carcasses. At the same time, the poultry carcasses can enter the conveying space in a forward tilted posture.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, along the conveying direction of the poultry carcass, the pressing unit 14 includes a first pressing portion 141, a second pressing portion 142 and a third pressing portion 143 which are connected in sequence. The third pressing portion 143 extends in the horizontal direction and is arranged between two disc knives. The second pressing portion 142 is bent upward to facilitate the pressing portion to enter the interior of the poultry carcass from the first opening.

[0039] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the spine removal device 2 includes a second guide mechanism 21 and a second cutting mechanism 22 arranged on a second frame 20, and the second cutting mechanism 22 is arranged downstream of the second guide mechanism 21. The second cutting mechanism 22 includes two symmetrically arranged second cutting units, each of which includes a second disc knife and a second driving unit for driving the second disc knife to rotate, and the second driving unit can be a motor.

[0040] The second guide mechanism 21 includes symmetrically arranged second guide plates 211, a conveying space for the poultry carcasses to pass through is formed in the middle of the second guide mechanism 21, and the second guide mechanism 21 also includes an adjustment component 112. The adjustment component 112 can adjust the size between the two second guide plates 211 to accommodate poultry carcasses of different sizes.

[0041] In order to facilitate the introduction of the poultry carcasses into the conveying space, along the conveying direction of the poultry carcasses, the second guide plate 211 includes a first section, a second section and a third section connected in sequence, the third section extends in the horizontal direction, and the second section and the first section are bent downward.
