Compared with traditional manual salt spreading, the salt spreading component can ensure the accurate placement of salt particles and improve the pickling efficiency and quality.

[0022] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the salt spreading assembly includes a mounting frame 10, a storage hopper 11, a stirring rod 12, a motor 13 and a discharge box 16, the mounting frame 10 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 2, the storage hopper 11 is movably mounted on the mounting frame 10, the storage hopper 11 is used to hold edible salt, the stirring rod 12 is rotatably mounted in the storage hopper 11, the motor 13 is fixed in the motor 13, the output shaft of the motor 13 is fixedly connected to the stirring rod 12, and the discharge box 16 is mounted at the bottom of the storage hopper 11.

[0023] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 10 provides a stable mounting base for the salt spreading assembly, and the storage hopper 11 is used to hold edible salt. The design of the storage hopper 11 allows the operator to easily add and replace edible salt, while also ensuring a continuous supply of salt particles during the salt spreading process. The rotation of the stirring rod 12 can effectively prevent the edible salt from agglomerating in the storage hopper 11, thereby ensuring the uniformity and fluidity of the salt particles during the salt spreading process. The introduction of the motor 13 realizes the automatic driving of the stirring rod 12 without manual operation, thereby greatly improving the degree of automation of the salt spreading process. The design of the discharge box 16 allows the operator to adjust the discharge amount and speed of the salt particles according to actual needs, thereby ensuring that the ham obtains a uniform and appropriate amount of salt during the pickling process.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a clamping plate 17 is fixedly installed on both sides of the storage hopper 11, and an adjustment plate 18 is slidably installed between the two clamping plates 17, the top of the adjustment plate 18 is in contact with the bottom of the discharge box 16, and the bottom of the adjustment plate 18 and the discharge box 16 are both provided with a plurality of discharge holes 19, and the plurality of discharge holes 19 located on the discharge box 16 and the plurality of discharge holes 19 located on the adjustment plate 18 can overlap with each other.

[0027] In this embodiment, the limit plate 14 can limit the storage hopper 11 to prevent it from falling off easily. The weighing sensor 15 is used to monitor the weight of the edible salt in the storage hopper 11 in real time. The weighing sensor 15 can promptly feedback the remaining salt amount to the operator or the control system, thereby avoiding the influence of insufficient salt on the pickling process, improving the degree of automation of the pickling process, and reducing manpower requirements and the risk of skin injury to the operator.

[0028] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a discharge barrel 7 is installed at the bottom of the protection box 3, and a collecting box 8 is placed on the base 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the universal wheels 9 allow the collection box 8 to be easily moved and positioned, making it convenient for the operator to move the collection box 8 to a suitable position for collection, greatly improving work efficiency. The self-locking structure ensures that the collection box 8 can be firmly parked in place when it does not need to be moved, preventing movement or tipping due to accidental collision or external force. The handle design allows the operator to easily lift and move the collection box 8, further enhancing the convenience of the collection box 8. The observation window allows the operator to view the salt collection situation inside the collection box 8 without opening the collection box 8, helping to avoid timely discovery when the salt is overflowing.

[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of support shafts 6 are rotatably installed in the protection box 3, and the plurality of support shafts 6 are in contact with the metal mesh conveyor belt 5, and the metal mesh conveyor belt 5 is provided with an anti-rust coating.

[0033] In this embodiment, the support shaft 6 provides stable support and rotation guidance for the metal mesh conveyor belt 5. Through the support and guidance of the support shaft 6, the metal mesh conveyor belt 5 can rotate smoothly, ensuring the stable movement of the ham during the conveying process, while preventing the conveyor belt from being deformed or damaged due to uneven force. The anti-rust coating can effectively prevent the metal mesh conveyor belt 5 from rusting in a humid or corrosive environment, thereby extending its service life.
