Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned retail equipment, in particular to a fully automatic fruit slicer with automatic cleaning function. Background Art

[0002] With the advancement of science and technology and the accelerated pace of people's lives, unmanned retail equipment has gradually emerged in the market. Among them, automatic fruit slicing equipment, as an important part of unmanned retail equipment, has received widespread attention. However, in existing fruit slicing equipment, rotating blades are generally used for slicing. Although rotating blades have achieved automatic slicing of fruits to a certain extent, the problems they have cannot be ignored.

[0003] At present, fruit slicing mainly uses rotating blades to achieve manual or automatic fruit slicing. However, during the slicing process, due to the centrifugal force of the rotation, the fruit slices cut out are not accurately placed and are easily thrown out of the container, causing food contamination. In addition, the rotating blade cuts the fruit piece by piece, and the last piece will remain between the rotating blade and the blade holder and will not enter the container, requiring manual intervention. And there is no automatic cleaning function. This method of cutting fruit is not suitable for unmanned retail equipment with high automation requirements;

[0004] Therefore, based on the above search and in combination with the prior art, a fully automatic fruit slicer with automatic cleaning is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] The top surface of the bottom waterproof shell 5 and the bottom surface of the mounting bracket 6 are both provided with fruit slice outlets 16, and the two fruit slice outlets 16 are connected. Two cleaning water receiving tray fixing frames 23 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the bottom waterproof shell 5, and a cleaning water receiving bin 21 is fixedly installed between the two cleaning water receiving tray fixing frames 23.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] When in use, the fruit passes through the guiding effect of the fruit guide plate 1, and after being detected by the fruit detection photoelectric 3 to ensure that the fruit exists and meets the cutting conditions, it enters between the fruit push frame 10 and the cutting blade frame 11 through the fruit entrance 2 on the top. The fruit push frame 10 is composed of a plurality of stainless steel plates arranged in parallel, and the tail is connected to the gear transmission group 9. The other end of the gear transmission group 9 is connected to the cutting transmission motor 17. When the cutting transmission motor 17 starts to rotate, the fruit push frame 10 is driven by the gear transmission group 9 to make a linear reciprocating motion along the optical axes 14 on both sides. The cutting blade frame 11 is composed of a plurality of blades arranged in parallel and fixed on the bottom waterproof shell 5. During the movement of the fruit push frame 10, the stainless steel sheet and the cutting blade of the fruit push frame 10 are always in a cross state. By adjusting the gap between the stainless steel sheet and the cutting blade, the size of the fruit slices after cutting can be controlled. When the fruit push frame 10 moves toward the cutting blade frame 11, the fruit is cut into slices by the cutting blade frame 11 under the action of the fruit push frame 10. Since the bottom of the fruit push frame 10 is close to the bottom waterproof shell 5, the cut fruit slices can be The fruit slices are completely pushed to the fruit slicing outlet 16. During this process, the cleaning water receiving bin 21 located below the bottom waterproof housing 5 allows the cut fruit slices to fall into the designated container through the fruit slicing outlet 16. The tail of the cleaning water receiving bin 21 is connected to the cleaning water receiving tray transmission gear rack 20. The cleaning water receiving tray transmission gear rack 20 is engaged with the gear of the cleaning water receiving tray transmission motor 19. When cleaning is required, the cleaning water receiving tray transmission motor 19 drives the cleaning water receiving bin 21 to move linearly along the cleaning water receiving tray fixing frame 23. When cleaning starts, the cleaning water receiving bin 21 The cleaning nozzle 15 inside the equipment starts to spray water to clean the fruit push frame 10, the cutting blade frame 11 and the entire cutting area. The cleaning water is discharged through the cleaning drain port 22 at the rear end of the cleaning water receiving bin 21. After the cleaning is completed, the cleaning water receiving tray drive motor 19 drives the cleaning water receiving bin 21 to move to the rear of the fruit slicing outlet 16 to prepare for the next fruit cutting. During the whole process, the ultraviolet light sterilization lamp 7 continues to work to sterilize the inside of the equipment to ensure hygiene and safety.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
