DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. In the following detailed description, only certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration. Needless to say, those skilled in the art will recognize that the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the claims.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the shaping device for food processing includes several groups of cutting knife assemblies 22, wherein the cutting knife assemblies 22 include a knife seat 21 and a blade 23 installed on the knife seat 21, and the knife seat 21 is installed at the power output end of a driving cylinder 1, and also includes several supporting molds 71, and the supporting molds 71 ​​are provided with cutting grooves 72 matching the blades 23.

[0035] The cutter assemblies 22 are in two or more groups. A plurality of blades 23 are arranged on the blade holder 21, and the blades 23 of different cutter assemblies 22 are arranged in the same arrangement or in different arrangements.

[0036] The shapes of the blades 23 of different cutting knife assemblies 22 are the same or different. The shape of the blade 23 can be a conventional flat blade or a wavy or arc-shaped blade. The blades 23 of this structure can be arranged in multiples on the knife seat 21 as needed; the shape of the blade 23 can also adopt a special-shaped structure, such as a circular ring, an elliptical ring, a teardrop shape or a heart shape. The blades 23 of this structure can be single or multiple. When multiple blades of this structure are installed on the knife seat 21, they are arranged in the form of a large blade with a small blade inside, so as to cut the food into a ring shape; blades 23 with different inner diameters can also be installed on two knife seats 21, and cut twice to form a ring-shaped finished product.

[0037] A knife retracting plate 32 is installed below the knife seat 21, and the blade 23 extends downward and passes through the knife retracting plate 32. When the cutter assembly 22 cuts the food, it is easy to lift the food during the upward process. The knife retracting plate 32 can prevent the cutter assembly 22 from lifting the food from the supporting mold 71.

[0038] A slide bar 41 is fixedly mounted on the knife-retracting pressure plate 32, the top end of the slide bar 41 extends upward through the knife seat 21 and is equipped with a limiting device, a spring 42 is mounted on the slide bar 41 and is located between the knife seat 21 and the knife-retracting pressure plate 32, and a limiting height platform 31 is mounted on the knife-retracting pressure plate 32. The limiting height platform 31 can prevent the food from being pressed and deformed during the cutting process, and plays a protective role on the food.

[0039] A linear bearing 43 is installed between the knife seat 21 and the slide bar 41 to ensure that the knife seat 21 will not rotate during downward sliding and ensure vertical upward and downward sliding. At least two slide bars 41 are symmetrically installed between the knife seat 21 and the knife retracting plate 32, and four slide bars 41 can also be installed as needed, respectively located on both sides of the cutter assembly 22.

[0040] The knife retracting pressing plate 32 and the knife seat 21 are preferably arranged in parallel.

[0041] The knife retracting pressure plate 32 is provided with two height limiting platforms 31 respectively located at both sides of the cutter assembly 22 . The height limiting platforms 31 are nylon height limiting platforms 31 . The positions of the height limiting platforms 31 avoid the position where the cutter assembly 22 falls.

[0042] The limiting device includes a limiting bolt 51 installed at the top end of the slide rod 41 . A buffer washer is installed between the limiting bolt 51 and the knife seat 21 . The buffer washer includes a flat washer 52 and a spring washer 53 .

[0043] The cutter assembly 22 is composed of a plurality of cutters. The specific shape of the cutter assembly 22 is designed according to the needs. For example, when the food needs to be cut into cubes, the structure of the support mold 71 is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, two groups of cutter assemblies 22 can be used for cutting, and the blades 23 of different cutter assemblies 22 are arranged in different arrangements. For example, the first group of cutter assemblies 22 uses a plurality of parallel transverse cutters, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second group of cutter assemblies 22 use parallel longitudinal cutters, such as Figure 7 As shown, by cutting the food twice in the vertical direction, a regular square product can be obtained, and the size of the square is determined by the density of the cutter arrangement. Alternatively, a grid-shaped cutter can be directly used to cut the food into shape once.

[0044] When the food needs to be cut into strips, the blades 23 of the different cutting knife assemblies 22 can be arranged in the same manner. The structure of the supporting mold 71 is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the corresponding cutter assembly 22 adopts Figure 7 The structure shown. At this time, the blades 23 of the multiple cutter assemblies 22 are arranged in the same manner, so that the multiple cutter assemblies 22 can work simultaneously, which greatly improves the production capacity.

[0045] In addition to the sheet cutter, other shapes of cutters can also be used, such as cylindrical cutters, such as Fig.10 and Fig.12 As shown, Fig.10 The cutter assembly shown is matched with Fig. 9 The support mold 71 shown can cut the food into an oval shape. The blades 23 of the different cutting knife assemblies 22 can be arranged in the same manner. Fig.10 The cutter assembly shown can have multiple cutter assemblies 22 working simultaneously so as to cut oval-shaped food more quickly.

[0046] Fig.10 and Fig.12 The cutter assembly shown fits Fig.11 The supporting mold 71 shown, that is, the blades 23 of the multiple cutting knife assemblies 22 are arranged in different arrangements, can cut the food into a ring shape.

[0047] At the same time, according to the arrangement of the blades 23 of the plurality of cutter assemblies 22, large breast shapes can be cut and strip-shaped foods can be cut into blocks, which is flexible to use.

[0048] The knife retracting pressure plate 32 is provided with an escape zone for the cutter to pass through. If the cutter assembly 22 adopts a non-closed shape cutter, the escape zone on the knife retracting pressure plate 32 can be designed as a narrow gap matching it for the blade 23 to pass through. If the cutter assembly 22 adopts a closed type cutter, such as a heart-shaped cutter assembly 22, the escape zone on the knife retracting pressure plate 32 should adopt a large area hollow mode.

[0049] One set of cutter assemblies 22 can be installed on one cutter seat 21, and one set of cutter assemblies 22 can cut one product at a time; multiple sets of cutter assemblies 22 can also be installed side by side on one cutter seat 21. For example, when two sets of cutter assemblies 22 are installed, the cutter seat 21 moves down once to cut two products at the same time.

[0050] The shaping device for food processing works under the drive of the driving cylinder 1. The knife seat 21 moves downward, driving the cutting knife assembly 22, the knife retracting pressure plate 32 and the height limiting platform 31 to move downward at the same time. The knife retracting pressure plate 32 first contacts the food, and the knife retracting pressure plate 32 and the height limiting platforms 31 on both sides of the food play a limiting role on the food. The knife seat 21 continues to move downward to compress the spring 42. The cutting knife assembly 22 moves into place and cuts the food under the drive of the knife seat 21. The cutting knife assembly 22 has a compact structure, and the knife seat 21, the cutting knife assembly 22, the knife retracting pressure plate 32 and the height limiting platform 31 are precisely matched to avoid food displacement during cutting. The height limiting platform 31 can also protect the food from being squeezed and deformed, thereby ensuring the cutting and shaping quality of the product.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the food shaping machine comprises a frame 6, a conveying device is mounted on the frame 6, a plurality of supporting molds 71 ​​are arranged and mounted on the conveying device, and at least one shaping device as described above is mounted on the frame 6 and is located above the conveying device. Two vertical plates 81 are fixedly mounted on the frame 6 on both sides of the conveying device, and cylinder mounting plates 82 are fixedly mounted on the top ends of the two vertical plates 81, and the driving cylinder 1 of the cutter assembly 22 is fixedly mounted on the cylinder mounting plates 82.

[0052] The support mold 71 is provided with a cutting groove 72 matching the shape of the cutter of the cutter assembly 22 , and the knife retracting pressing plate 32 is located above the support mold 71 .

[0053] The conveying device includes a conveyor belt or a conveyor chain, and the support mold 71 is arranged and installed on the conveyor belt or the conveyor chain. The driving device of the conveyor belt and the conveyor chain belongs to the common knowledge in the field, such as Figure 4 As shown, its specific structure and working principle will not be described here.

[0054] At least two shaping devices are installed on the frame 6. Take two shaping devices as an example for explanation, the cutter assemblies 22 on the two shaping devices can be used in combination, for example, the cutters on one cutter assembly 22 are distributed horizontally, and the cutters on the other cutter assembly 22 are distributed vertically to form cross cutting, or the same cutter assembly 22 can be installed on the two shaping devices, and when working, the two sets of cutter assemblies 22 work at the same time, cutting two products at a time, doubling the cutting efficiency; at this time, when the conveying device conveys forward, it moves two stations at a time, that is, moves two support molds 71 ​​at a time.

[0055] The food shaping machine, the support mold 71 on the conveying device cooperates with the cutter assembly 22 of the cutter assembly 22, can cut and trim the food on the support mold 71 into a required shape, and the entire cutting process is automatically completed by the machine equipment. The height limiting platform 31 can not only protect the food from being squeezed and deformed, but also limit the food to the shaping station of the support mold 71 to prevent the product from shifting during pressing or cutting, thereby ensuring the quality and cutting efficiency of the cut product.

[0056] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
