Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of animal husbandry and slaughtering, in particular to a mechanism for splitting and skinning a live pig. Background Art

[0002] The slaughtering industry used to be operated manually. Now under the mechanized operation mode, the slaughtering industry is also updating to automatic mechanization. In the automatic slaughtering process, splitting a pig in half means splitting the pig in half. There are currently two ways to split a pig in half. One is to use a saw blade to split the pig in half, and the other is to use a machete to split the pig directly. These two skinning methods are prone to jagged cuts on the pig's back after splitting the pig in half, which leads to the problem of unsightly pig skin on the pig's back. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a pig splitting and skinning mechanism to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0004] A pig splitting and skinning mechanism, comprising:

[0005] Support;

[0007] A first cylinder, the first cylinder being rotatably connected to the inner side of the hinge seat;

[0008] A hinge frame, wherein the hinge seat is rotatably connected to the inner side of the upper part of the hinge frame, and the piston rod end of the first cylinder is fixed to the inner bottom end of the hinge frame;

[0009] A second cylinder, the second cylinder is fixedly mounted at the lower end of the hinge frame;

[0010] A knife fixed to the end of the piston rod of the second cylinder;

[0011] A wheel holding frame, the wheel holding frame is rotatably connected to the lower rear part of the hinge frame, a knife accommodating cavity is provided in the middle and lower part of the wheel holding frame, and the rear part of the knife extends into the knife accommodating cavity;

[0012] The holding wheels are provided with two pairs and are rotatably connected to the upper and lower ends of the holding wheel frame respectively.

[0013] Preferably, both left and right ends of the upper portion of the first cylinder are bearing-connected with a third rotating shaft, and the end of the third rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hinge seat.

[0014] Preferably, both left and right ends of the hinge seat are bearing-connected with a second rotating shaft, and the end of the second rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hinge frame.

[0015] Preferably, a first rotating shaft is fixed at both ends of the left and right ends of the wheel holding frame, the end of the first rotating shaft is connected to the bearing on the inner wall of the hinge frame, and a torsion spring is installed on the outside of the first rotating shaft, one end of the torsion spring is against the bottom of the hinge frame, and the other end of the torsion spring is located above the wheel holding frame at the lower end.

[0016] Preferably, a fixing seat is fixed to the end of the piston rod of the first cylinder, and the fixing seat is fixedly connected to the hinge bracket.

[0017] Beneficial effect: When the splitter is splitting in half, the holding wheel is clamped and the knife is pushed out by the cylinder and inserted into the skin of the pig's back. When the splitter is splitting in half downward, it drives the knife to cut the skin and flesh on the pig's back to achieve a smooth and beautiful effect. When the splitting is completed, the holding wheel opens and the skinning knife returns to the retracted state to complete the skinning. This avoids the appearance of a jagged cut on the pig's back, and the pig's back skin looks beautiful when the pig is split in half. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , a pig splitting and skinning mechanism, comprising:

[0024] Support 1;

[0025] A hinge seat 2, wherein the hinge seat 2 is fixed at the front end of the support 1;

[0026] The first cylinder 3 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the hinge seat 2. The left and right ends of the upper part of the first cylinder 3 are both connected to the third rotating shaft 14 with bearings. The end of the third rotating shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hinge seat 2. The first cylinder 3 is located inside the hinge seat 2 and can rotate with the hinge seat 2 through the third rotating shaft 14.

[0027] The hinge frame 4, the hinge seat 2 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the upper part of the hinge frame 4, the left and right ends of the hinge seat 2 are both connected to the second rotating shaft 13 by bearings, the end of the second rotating shaft 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hinge frame 4, the end of the piston rod of the first cylinder 3 is fixed to the bottom end of the inner part of the hinge frame 4, the end of the piston rod of the first cylinder 3 is fixed with a fixed seat 12, the fixed seat 12 is fixedly connected to the hinge frame 4 with the hinge seat 2, the hinge seat 2 is located on the inner side of the upper part of the hinge frame 4 and can rotate with the hinge frame 4 through the second rotating shaft 13, so that the lower part of the hinge frame 4 is driven to rotate with the second rotating shaft 13 as the rotating point by the extension and contraction of the first cylinder 3, and the first cylinder 3 can also rotate with the third rotating shaft 14 as the rotating point;

[0028] A second cylinder 5, which is fixedly mounted at the lower end of the hinge frame 4;

[0029] A knife 9, wherein the knife 9 is fixed to the end of the piston rod of the second cylinder 5, and the extension and retraction of the second cylinder 5 can drive the knife 9 to extend and retract synchronously;

[0030] The wheel holding frame 6 is rotatably connected to the lower rear part of the hinge frame 4. The left and right ends of the wheel holding frame 6 are fixed with first rotating shafts 10. The ends of the first rotating shafts 10 are connected to the inner wall bearings of the hinge frame 4. A torsion spring 11 is installed outside the first rotating shaft 10. One end of the torsion spring 11 is against the bottom of the hinge frame 4. A knife accommodating cavity 8 is provided in the middle and lower part of the wheel holding frame 6. The rear part of the knife 9 extends into the knife accommodating cavity 8. When the wheel holding frame 6 is close to the back of the pig, the wheel holding frame 6 can be pressed and rotated, and the wheel holding frame 6 rotates with the hinge frame 4 with the first rotating shaft 10 as the rotation point;

[0031] The holding wheel 7 has two pairs and is rotatably connected to the upper and lower ends of the holding wheel frame 6. The other end of the torsion spring 11 is located above the holding wheel 7 at the lower end. When the holding wheel frame 6 is close to the back of the pig, the holding wheel 7 can clamp the back of the pig. At the same time, the rotation of the holding wheel frame 6 can make the lower holding wheel 7 press the other end of the torsion spring 11, which is conducive to the holding wheel 7 clamping the back of the pig.

[0032] A method for splitting and skinning a pig, based on the above-mentioned mechanism for splitting and skinning a pig, specifically comprises the following steps:

[0033] S1, the pig moves to the rear of the holding wheel 7, the piston rod of the first cylinder 3 extends to push the hinge frame 4, the hinge frame 4 rotates to drive the holding wheel frame 6 close to the back of the pig, so that the holding wheel 7 clamps the back of the pig;

[0034] S2, the piston rod of the second cylinder 5 extends, and the knife 9 is pushed by the second cylinder 5 and inserted into the back skin of the pig;

[0035] S3, the splitting machine splits downward and drives the knife 9 to cut the skin and flesh on the back of the pig;

[0036] S4, after the splitting is completed, the piston rod of the first cylinder 3 is retracted and the piston rod of the second cylinder 5 is retracted, and the holding wheel 7 is opened while the knife 9 returns to the retracted state, and the skinning is completed.

[0037] To sum up, when the splitting machine splits the pig in half, the holding wheel 7 is clamped and the knife 9 is pushed out by the second cylinder 5 and inserted into the skin of the pig's back. When the splitting machine splits the pig in half downward, it drives the knife 9 to cut the skin and flesh on the pig's back to achieve a smooth and beautiful effect. When the splitting is completed, the holding wheel 7 is opened and the knife 9 returns to the retracted state to complete the skinning, thus avoiding the jagged cut of the pig's back skin. When the pig is split in half, the pig's back skin is beautiful.
