Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, and in particular to a pre-prepared vegetable cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] With market development and changing demands, pre-cooked food has gradually become an important part of people's lives and catering consumption. As market demand increases, the production capacity of pre-cooked food continues to expand. As the raw materials for pre-cooked food, various ingredients need to be pre-processed into the required shapes.

[0003] In the current technology, vegetable cutters are widely used in various catering industries, including the ready-to-cook meal industry. Vegetable cutters are mainly used to cut different ingredients into target shapes, such as slices, strips, or chunks. Conventional vegetable cutters use a conveyor belt to transport the ingredients to be cut. After reaching the cutting position, the cutting blade works in conjunction with the conveyor belt to cut the ingredients into slices, strips, or chunks. However, in actual use, these types of vegetable cutters are prone to situations where the cutting blade cannot completely cut the ingredients. The main reason is that the conveyor belt is elastic. When the ingredients are hard, the pressure of the cutting blade causes the conveyor belt to deform, resulting in the cutting edge not being able to fully adhere to the conveyor belt surface, ultimately leading to incomplete cutting of the ingredients and affecting the processing effect.

[0004] Based on the aforementioned technical problems, there is an urgent need for a more rationally designed cutting device that can effectively ensure that the cutter can completely cut the food. Utility Model Content

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, combined with Figure 2-6 The present invention discloses a pre-cut vegetable cutting device, which includes a support frame 1, a conveyor belt 2, a grooved roller 3, a cutting roller 4, and a driving device 5. The conveyor belt 2 is fixed on the support frame 1. The grooved roller 3 and the cutting roller 4 are arranged in parallel rotation on the support frame 1, and both the grooved roller 3 and the cutting roller 4 are located on one side of the output end of the conveyor belt 2. The output end of the conveyor belt 2 is located above the grooved roller 3. The surface of the grooved roller 3 is provided with a plurality of annular grooves 31 at intervals along the axial direction. The surface of the cutting roller 4 is provided with a plurality of annular blades 41 at intervals along the axial direction. The bottom surface of each annular groove 31 is tangent to the circumferential edge of an annular blade 41. The driving device 5 is fixed on the support frame 1 and is used to drive the grooved roller 3 and the cutting roller 4 to rotate relative to each other.

[0032] In the above-described embodiment, the food to be processed falls or directly enters the surface of the grooved roller 3 after being conveyed by the conveyor belt 2. Driven by the rotation of the grooved roller 3, it enters the space between the cutter roller 4 and the grooved roller 3. Since multiple annular blades 41 are tangent to multiple annular grooves 31, the food is cut off after being processed by the roller pressing of the annular blades 41 and output from the side of the grooved roller 3 and the cutter roller 4 away from the conveyor belt 3. By setting a receiving container below the output side, the cut food can be collected. Unlike the traditional cutting device that uses a cutter and a conveyor belt, in the present invention, the annular blades 41 can directly contact the annular grooves 31 on the surface of the rigid grooved roller 3, so the food will be directly cut when it passes through the contact point.

[0033] In some embodiments, a plurality of first scrapers 6 are also included. The plurality of first scrapers 6 are arranged in an array at intervals along a direction parallel to the axis of the cutter roller 4 on the surface of the support frame 1. A first scraper 6 is provided between each two adjacent annular blades 41, and the end of the first scraper 6 is attached to the surface of the cutter roller 4.

[0034] In the above embodiments, the first function of the first scraper 6 is to scrape the material on the surface of the cutter roller 4 located between the annular blades 41. Since a clamping space is formed between adjacent pairs of annular blades 41, after the annular blades 41 cooperate with the annular groove 31 to cut the material, the cut material will be clamped between the adjacent pairs of annular blades 41. After the cutter roller 4 rotates to the discharge end, the material can only be separated from the annular blades 41 by gravity. In order to avoid the material from accumulating in the clamping space and affecting subsequent food processing, the first scraper 6 is provided to scrape the surface of the cutter roller 4. Preferably, the first scraper 6 is located on the side of the cutter roller 4 away from the conveyor belt 2.

[0035] In some embodiments, a first rotating shaft 7 is also included, which is rotatably disposed on the surface of the support frame 1, and a plurality of first scrapers 6 are fixed on the first rotating shaft 7.

[0036] To accommodate the structure of the annular blade 41, multiple first scrapers 6 are provided. The first rotating shaft 7 is used to support the multiple first scrapers 6. At the same time, by rotating the first conversion shaft 7, the rotation angle of the multiple first scrapers 6 can be adjusted simultaneously or separately. Specifically, a rotating ring is provided at the end of the first scraper 6. The rotating ring is sleeved on the outside of the first rotating shaft 7. The rotating ring and the first rotating shaft 7 can be selectively rotated or fixedly adjusted by tightening bolts. The first rotating shaft 7 can also be rotated relative to the support frame 1.

[0037] In some embodiments, the device further includes a friction block 8 and an adjustment device 9. An adjustment device 9 is fixedly provided on the surface of each first scraper 6, and a friction block 8 is fixedly provided at the drive end of each adjustment device 9. The friction block 8 can selectively abut against the side of the blade of the annular blade 41.

[0038] In the above embodiment, the friction block 8 is used to rub the cutting edge of the annular blade 41, thereby maintaining the sharpness of the annular blade 41. Since the grooved roller 3 cooperates with the blade roller 4, the annular blade 41 is in long-term contact with the rigid grooved roller 3, which may lead to wear. Therefore, the friction block 8 is provided to rub the annular blade 41 to maintain its sharpness. The adjusting device 9 is used to adjust the contact effect between the friction block 8 and the cutting edge to avoid insufficient friction or excessive friction force, which would cause excessive wear to the annular blade 41.

[0039] In some embodiments, the adjusting device 9 includes a base 91 and an adjusting screw 92. The base 91 is fixed to the surface of the first scraper 6, the adjusting screw 92 is screwed onto the base 91, the length direction of the adjusting screw 92 is parallel to the axial direction of the cutter roller 4, and the friction block 8 is fixed to the end of the adjusting screw 92.

[0040] In the above embodiments, the adjusting device 9 uses an adjusting screw 92 that is screwed into the base 91. By rotating the adjusting screw 92, the distance between the end of the adjusting screw 92 and the annular blade 41 is changed, so as to adjust the contact effect between the friction block 8 and the annular blade 41.

[0041] In some embodiments, a second scraper 10 is also included, which is disposed on the surface of the support frame 1 and the end of the second scraper 10 is attached to the surface of the groove roller 3.

[0042] After cutting, some of the ingredients may be caught between the ring blades 41, or they may stick to the surface of the grooved roller 3, or be wrapped around the surface of the grooved roller 3. In order to separate the ingredients from the grooved roller 3, a second scraper 10 is provided to scrape the surface of the grooved roller 3 to prevent the ingredients from accumulating.

[0043] In some embodiments, a second rotating shaft 11 is also included, which is rotatably disposed on the surface of the support frame 1, and one side of the second scraper 10 is fixed to the surface of the second rotating shaft 11.

[0044] In the above embodiments, the second rotating shaft 11 is parallel to the rotating shaft of the grooved roller 3. The second rotating shaft 11 is used to support the second scraper 10 and to adjust the angle of the second scraper 10 to change the direct contact effect between the end of the second scraper 10 and the surface of the grooved roller 3, so as to avoid damage to the surface of the grooved roller 3 by the second scraper 10.

[0045] In some embodiments, a guide plate 12 is also included, which is disposed between the output end of the conveyor belt 2 and the grooved roller 3. The guide plate 12 is used to transport the food material falling from the output end of the conveyor belt 2 to the surface of the grooved roller 3.

[0046] In the above embodiments, the guide plate 12 is used to carry and transfer the food from the conveyor belt 2. In order to avoid interference between the conveyor belt 2 and the grooved roller 3, there is a distance between them. During the process of the food falling from the conveyor belt 2, it may collide with the grooved roller 3 and bounce off. Therefore, in order to transfer the food to the surface of the grooved roller 3 as completely as possible, or to prevent the food from falling off, the guide plate 12 is set to carry and transfer the food. One end of the guide plate 12 near the conveyor belt 2 can be close to the surface of the conveyor belt to achieve the purpose of scraping the material, and the other end can also be close to the surface of the grooved roller 3 to achieve the purpose of complete transfer.

[0047] In some embodiments, a third rotating shaft 13 is also included, which is rotatably disposed on the surface of the support frame 1, and one side of the guide plate 12 is fixed to the surface of the third rotating shaft 13.

[0048] In the above embodiments, the axis of the third rotating shaft 13 is parallel to the axis of the grooved roller 3. The setting of the third rotating shaft 13 allows the guide plate 12 to rotate. During the rotation, the distance between the side of the guide plate 12 close to the grooved roller 3 and the surface of the grooved roller 3 can be adjusted, and the feeding angle can be changed. According to the size and weight of different ingredients and the requirements of the feeding process on the surface of the guide plate 12, the third rotating shaft 13 can be rotated to change the angle of the guide plate 12, so that the transfer process of ingredients is more in line with production requirements.

[0049] In some embodiments, the driving device 5 includes a first motor 51 and a second motor 52 fixed on the support frame 1. The output shaft of the first motor 51 is coaxially keyed to the rotating shaft of the groove roller 3, and the output shaft of the second motor 52 is coaxially keyed to the rotating shaft of the cutter roller 4.

[0050] In the above embodiments, two motors drive the grooved roller 3 and the blade roller 4 to rotate respectively, so that the two rollers can rotate at different speeds. In conjunction with the annular blade 41 and the annular groove 31, a certain cutting effect can be achieved, improving the ability to cut and process food ingredients.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
