Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a model used in conjunction with a knife row and can be used for cutting meat. The utility model also relates to a meat cutter with the above-mentioned model and smooth knife feed. The meat cutter can quickly cut meat into slices or filaments. Background Art
[0002] As people's living standards improve, in order to achieve fast meat slicing, people have invented meat slicing equipment of various structures. Generally, their structures are relatively complex, their volumes are relatively large, and most of them are driven by motors. They are inconvenient to operate and are not suitable for home use. For example, Chinese utility model patent No. ZL202120965206.3 (publication No. CN214724520U) "A high-speed automatic fresh meat slicer" and Chinese utility model patent No. ZL202121306550.8 (publication No. CN215790151U) "Meat cutting rack, meat cutting machine and noodle selling device" disclose this type of meat cutting equipment.
[0003] Some people have also invented a smaller meat slicer suitable for home use. For example, a Chinese utility model patent "Sausage Slicer" with patent number ZL201320058481.2 (publication number CN203045785U) discloses such a structure, including a knife holder and a cutter; the knife holder includes a bottom plate, a bracket, and a partition, the bracket is fixed on the bottom plate, the partition is fixed on the bracket, and there are multiple partitions, which are arranged at intervals; the cutter includes a knife board and a blade, the blade is multiple, fixed side by side on the knife board, and a blade is inserted between two partitions. However, this meat sausage slicer is only suitable for slicing processed meat sausages, and is not suitable for cutting fresh meat and other meats. If it is used to cut fresh meat, it is not only difficult to place and take out the meat, but also difficult to cut the meat, and the operation is laborious and extremely inconvenient.
[0004] The existing meat slicers have the defects of being large in size, being driven by a motor, having an unreasonable structure, being inconvenient to operate, and having a poor meat cutting effect, and are therefore not suitable for household use.
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the applicant has previously invented a small household meat slicer consisting of a cutting knife row with multiple blades and a meat accommodating model with several knife grooves. Compared with the above-mentioned prior art, the meat slicer is obviously more convenient to operate, more suitable for home use, and has higher meat cutting efficiency. However, in actual application, when the blade is guided into the knife groove by the guiding bevels on the left and right sides of the open part of the model, the blade will directly cut the groove wall of the knife groove along the inclination angle of the guiding bevel, resulting in obvious jamming when feeding the knife, the feeding is not smooth, the user experience is poor, and the blade and the knife groove are easily damaged, which needs further improvement. Summary of the invention
[0006] The first technical problem to be solved by the present invention is a further improvement made in view of the above-mentioned current technical status and existing technical problems, and provides a meat accommodating model with reasonable structural design, which can cooperate with the cutting knife row to easily and efficiently cut the meat into slices or shreds. The model can constitute a part of the meat slicer and can guide the cutting knife row to smoothly enter the knife feed slot to avoid the phenomenon of knife feed jamming, and provide a better user experience.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above-mentioned first technical problem is: a model that can be used for cutting meat, characterized in that: it includes a placement cavity with an open top, and the two opposite side walls of the placement cavity are vertically provided with a plurality of first knife grooves with upper end notches arranged side by side and spaced apart, and the first knife groove can allow the blade to enter from its upper end notch; the left and right sides of the open top of the placement cavity are provided with guide walls, and the side of the guide wall facing the first knife groove has a guide slope and a guide vertical surface, and the guide vertical surface is located at the lower part of the guide slope, and the intersection of the guide slope and the guide vertical surface is higher than the upper end notch of the first knife groove. Therefore, there is a height difference between the intersection of the guide slope and the guide vertical surface and the upper end notch of the first knife groove. The guide slope is a surface that is inclined from bottom to top in the direction away from the first knife groove, so that the guide slope is in a state of expanding outward from bottom to top, and it can be a plane or an arc surface, and its main function is to guide the left and right outermost blades of the cutting knife row with multiple blades into the first knife groove. The guiding vertical surface refers to a surface extending roughly in the vertical direction. It can be perpendicular to the horizontal surface, or it can be a surface slightly inclined from bottom to top inward (i.e., toward the direction of the first knife groove) as needed, or it can be slightly adjusted in other directions. The guiding vertical surface is roughly in the vertical direction and is different from the guiding inclined surface. Here, the guiding vertical surface is not limited to being a surface that must be or is only perpendicular to the horizontal surface. The guiding inclined surface and the guiding vertical surface (hereinafter referred to as the two) can be directly connected, so that their intersection is an intersection line; the two can also be indirectly connected, and there is a transition surface (plane or arc surface) between the two, so that the intersection of the two is a transition surface.
[0008] As an improvement, the above model has a bottom, two side walls facing each other in the front and back, and baffles on the left and right sides. The bottom, side walls and baffles together enclose the placement cavity, and each baffle is provided with at least two guide walls. The baffles block the meat placed in the placement cavity, so that when cutting the meat, the meat will not run out of the placement cavity to the left and right sides. In addition, when cutting the meat, the knife row is placed in the front and back direction, and the baffles just provide a suitable setting position for the guide walls.
[0009] Further improvement, the outer side of the above-mentioned guiding bevel has an outer bevel inclined outward. The outer side of the guiding bevel refers to the side of the guiding bevel away from the inside of the placement cavity, which side faces the outside of the placement cavity, and the two outer bevels opposite to each other on the left and right form a flared shape that expands outward. The outer bevel can be a plane or an arc surface. Its function is that in actual use, the user often inadvertently holds the cutting knife row crooked so that the blade will not be aligned with the first knife groove and will be slightly tilted to the left or right. This will cause the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row to first cut the outer side of the guiding bevel when contacting the guiding bevel of the guide wall, resulting in obvious jamming, causing the feeding to be not smooth and damaging the blade and the guide wall. After adopting this structure, the outer side of the guiding bevel has an outer bevel inclined outward, even if the cutting knife row is slightly tilted in the left and right directions to enter the knife groove, the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row will not cut the outer side of the guiding bevel, thereby ensuring smoother feeding and no damage to the blade and the guide wall.
[0010] As a further improvement, a plurality of second knife grooves are provided at the bottom of the placement cavity, the second knife grooves are arranged corresponding to the first knife grooves and are connected to each other, and the second knife grooves are for the blades to enter. The effect of this is that when cutting meat, the blades of the blades on the knife row can move downward to below the bottom surface of the placement cavity, so that the meat placed in the placement cavity can be cut, and the depth of the second knife groove is preferably greater than the height of the blade, so that the blade after cutting the meat can be located below the bottom surface of the placement cavity, and when the knife row moves upward, the top surface of the blade can push the cut meat upward together, which is convenient for the user to take out the cut meat.
[0011] Preferably, the second knife groove runs through the bottom of the placement cavity. When flushing the mold, the remaining meat scraps can be flushed out of the mold through the second knife groove, which is convenient for flushing.
[0012] To facilitate the cutting, as an improvement, the left groove wall at the upper end notch of the first knife groove has a left upper guiding slope that tilts from bottom to top to the left, and the right groove wall has a right upper guiding slope that tilts from bottom to top to the right. The arrangement of the left and right upper guiding slopes makes the upper end notch of the first knife groove present a V-shaped structure, which is convenient for guiding the blade into the first knife groove. The guiding slope can be a plane or an arc surface.
[0013] Because there are several first knife grooves arranged side by side and spaced apart, the groove wall between two adjacent first knife grooves is usually relatively thin, and the groove wall may be deformed during use, resulting in changes in the spacing of the first knife grooves, which in turn makes it difficult for the blade to align and enter the first knife groove. For this reason, further improvements are made, in which the bottom of the upper left guide slope is connected to a lower left guide slope that tilts from top to bottom to the left, and the bottom of the upper right guide slope is connected to a lower right guide slope that tilts from top to bottom to the right. The setting of the left and right lower guide slopes allows both the left and right groove walls at the notch to form a convex portion. When a groove wall of the first knife groove is offset and bent during use, the convex portion can make the adjacent groove walls abut and support each other, avoiding excessive deformation and displacement of the groove wall of the first knife groove and affecting the blade from entering the first knife groove; in addition, the setting of the lower guide slope forms an inverted V-shaped structure, which facilitates the blade to move upward out of the first knife groove. Especially when the model is formed by a one-time injection molding process, the advantage of this structure is very obvious, but if the groove wall of the first groove is made of steel, the convex part is not required.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the model for cutting meat has the advantages that: it can cooperate with the cutting knife row to easily and efficiently cut meat into slices or shreds, and the model can constitute a part of the following meat cutter; the guide wall with the guiding slope can guide the outermost blades of the cutting knife row, and when cutting meat, the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row are guided by the guiding slopes and gradually slide into the opening of the placement cavity. Because the intersection of the guiding slope and the guiding vertical surface is higher than the upper end notch of the first knife groove and there is a height difference, the blade does not slide directly into the first knife groove, but first passes under the guiding slope. The transition and adjustment of the guiding vertical surface of the part adjusts the sliding direction of the blades (the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row) from the inclined direction to the vertical direction and then continues to slide into the first knife groove, thereby avoiding the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row to directly slide into the first knife groove along the inclined direction of the guiding inclined surface when feeding, thereby avoiding the cutting damage to the groove wall of the first knife groove by the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row and the resulting feeding jam phenomenon, ensuring that the cutting knife row can smoothly enter the first knife groove under the guidance of the guide wall, the feeding is smoother, and the user experience is better.
[0015] The second technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a meat cutter with the above-mentioned model and smooth cutting in view of the above-mentioned existing technical status.
[0016] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above-mentioned second technical problem is: a meat cutter with smooth knife feed, including a cutting knife row and the aforementioned model for cutting meat, the cutting knife row including a plurality of long strip-shaped blades arranged side by side and at intervals; in normal use, each of the blades can enter the corresponding first knife groove and slide back and forth to cut the meat placed in the placement cavity.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the meat slicer has the advantages of being composed of two parts: a cutting knife row for cutting meat and a model for accommodating meat. When cutting meat, the meat is easily placed into the placement cavity from the opening above the placement cavity, and then several blades of the cutting knife row are correspondingly inserted into the corresponding first knife grooves and pressed down. When the blades come into contact with the meat, the cutting knife row is pressed down and moved back and forth, and the several blades can easily cut the meat into several slices at one time (the thickness of the meat slices is equal to the spacing between the blades), and the thickness of each slice of meat can be made uniform, which greatly improves the efficiency of meat cutting. The outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row are first guided by the guiding bevel, and then transitioned and adjusted by the guiding vertical surface at the bottom of the guiding bevel. The sliding direction is adjusted from the inclined direction to the vertical direction and then continues to slide into the first knife groove, thereby avoiding the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row from directly sliding into the first knife groove along the inclined direction of the guiding bevel when feeding, thereby avoiding cutting damage to the groove wall of the first knife groove by the outermost blades on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row and the resulting feeding jamming phenomenon, the feeding is smoother and the user experience is better.

[0022] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it is a preferred embodiment of the meat cutter with smooth cutting feed of the model of the present invention.
[0024] A meat cutter with smooth knife feed comprises a cutting knife row 4 and a model 1 for cutting meat, wherein the cutting knife row 4 comprises a plurality of long strip-shaped blades 41 arranged side by side and at intervals; the model 1 comprises a bottom 11, two side walls 12 opposite to each other at the front and rear, and retaining walls 13 at the left and right sides, wherein the bottom 11, the side walls 12 and the retaining walls 13 together form a placement cavity Q with an open top, and each of the retaining walls 13 is provided with at least two guide walls 131.
[0025] The two opposite side walls 12 of the placement cavity Q are vertically provided with a plurality of first knife grooves 3a with upper end notches 3 arranged side by side and at intervals, and the first knife grooves 3a allow the blades 33 to enter from the upper end notches 3 thereof; in normal use, each blade 41 can enter the corresponding first knife groove 3a and slide forward and backward to cut the meat placed in the placement cavity Q. Generally, the meat is fresh meat, raw meat, not frozen meat.
[0026] The guide wall 131 is located on the left and right sides of the opening above the placement cavity Q. The side of the guide wall 131 facing the first knife groove 3a has a guide slope 3a1 and a guide vertical surface 3a2. The guide vertical surface 3a2 is located at the lower part of the guide slope 3a1. The intersection 3a3 of the guide slope 3a1 and the guide vertical surface 3a2 is higher than the upper end notch 3 of the first knife groove 3a. Therefore, there is a height difference between the intersection 3a3 of the guide slope 3a1 and the guide vertical surface 3a2 and the upper end notch 3 of the first knife groove 3a. The intersection 3a3 is roughly linear and can also be a transition surface. The outer side of the guide slope 3a1 has an outer slope 3a4 that is inclined outward, that is, turned outward. The two outer slopes 3a4 opposite to each other on the left and right form an outwardly expanding flared shape. The outer slope can be a plane or an arc surface.
[0027] The bottom of the placement cavity Q is provided with a plurality of second knife grooves 3b, which are arranged corresponding to the first knife grooves 3a and are connected to each other, and the second knife grooves 3b are provided for the blades to enter. The second knife grooves 3b run through the bottom 11 of the placement cavity Q.
[0028] The left groove wall at the upper end groove opening 3 of the first knife groove 3a has an upper left guiding slope 31 tilted from bottom to top to the left, and the right groove wall has an upper right guiding slope 32 tilted from bottom to top to the right. The bottom of the upper left guiding slope 31 is connected to a lower left guiding slope 33 tilted from top to bottom to the left, and the bottom of the upper right guiding slope 32 is connected to a lower right guiding slope 34 tilted from top to bottom to the right. These upper and lower guiding slopes facilitate the blade 41 to enter or exit the first knife groove 3a, and can form two opposite convex parts on the left and right sides of the upper end groove opening 3 of the first knife groove 3a. When a groove wall of the first knife groove 3a is bent due to force during use, each convex part can make the adjacent groove walls abut and support each other, so as to avoid excessive deformation and displacement of the groove wall of the first knife groove 3a and affect the blade 41 to enter the first knife groove 3a.
[0029] The working principle and process of this meat slicer are as follows.
[0030] When cutting meat, fresh meat is conveniently placed into the placement cavity Q from the opening above the placement cavity Q. The handle of the cutting knife row 4 is held by hand, and the guide wall 131 with the guiding slope 3a1 can guide the outermost blades 41 of the cutting knife row 4. When cutting meat, the outermost blades 41 on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row 4 are guided by the guiding slope 3a1 and gradually slide into the opening of the placement cavity Q. However, they do not slide directly into the first knife groove 3a, but first pass through the transition and adjustment of the guiding vertical surface 3a2 at the lower part of the guiding slope 3a1. The outermost blades 41 on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row 4 are adjusted by adjusting their sliding direction from the inclined direction to the vertical direction and then continue to slide into the first knife groove 3a, thereby preventing the outermost blades 41 on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row 4 from directly sliding into the first knife groove 3a along the inclined direction of the guiding slope 3a1 during cutting, thereby preventing the outermost blades 41 on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row 4 from cutting the groove wall of the first knife groove 3a and the resulting cutting jamming, thereby ensuring smoother cutting.
[0031] In actual use, users often inadvertently hold the cutting knife row 4 askew so that the blade 41 will not be aligned with the first knife groove 3a but will be slightly tilted to the left or right. However, since the outer side of the guiding bevel 3a1 has an outer bevel 3a4 inclined outward, even if the cutting knife row 4 is slightly tilted to the left or right to enter the first knife groove 3a, the outermost blades 41 on the left and right sides of the cutting knife row will not cut to the outside of the guiding bevel 3a1, thereby ensuring smoother cutting and no damage to the blade and the guide wall.
[0032] After the blades 41 of the cutting knife row 4 enter the corresponding first knife groove 3a and press down, when the blades 41 contact the meat, the cutting knife row 4 is pressed down and slid forward and backward, and each blade 41 easily cuts the meat into multiple slices of uniform thickness (the thickness of the meat slices is equal to the spacing between the blades), and the meat can be cut into multiple slices at one time. The bottom of the placement cavity Q is provided with a second knife groove 3b connected to the first knife groove 3a. When cutting meat, when the blades 41 on the cutting knife row 4 move to the bottom of the placement cavity Q, the blades of the blades 41 can continue to cut down into the second knife groove 3b below the bottom surface of the placement cavity Q, so that the meat placed in the placement cavity Q can be cut. The depth of the second knife groove 3b is preferably greater than or equal to the height of the blades 41, so that the blades 41 after cutting the meat can be located below the bottom surface of the placement cavity Q. When the cutting knife row 4 moves up, the top surface of the blades 41 can push the cut meat upward to move upward together, which is convenient for the user to take out the cut meat while taking out the cutting knife row 4 upward.
[0033] After the fresh meat is cut into a plurality of slices, the slices are taken out and stacked together, and then put into the placement cavity Q from the opening above the placement cavity Q, and the cutting knife row 4 is held by hand and entered into the placement cavity Q for the second time to cut, so that the sliced meat can be cut into shredded meat.
