Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food slicing, in particular to a food slicing machine. Background Art

[0002] Food slicing is a traditional food processing method that cuts food into slices for easy consumption in small portions or drying. This method is applicable to a variety of foods, such as fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, and some seafood. For example, when feeding animals, it is usually necessary to slice some fruits and vegetables to make it easier for the animals to eat.

[0003] However, when slicing some foods with high juice and viscosity, the materials are easily accumulated on the knife disc after slicing, resulting in uneven material discharge and more material remaining on the knife disc. For example, bananas and banana stalks can be used as food for farmed animals. Since bananas and banana stalks have more juice and good viscosity, they are easily accumulated on the knife disc, affecting normal slicing and discharging. Utility Model Content

Usually, the width of the tail gap is equivalent to the thickness of the cutter 320. The blade disc 300 can slice the material close to its front side by rotating in a preset direction and guide the slices to the rear side of the blade disc 300. The paddle plate 330 is used to paddle the sheet material entering the rear side of the blade disc 300 outward. The receiving mechanism 400 is used to receive the sheet material. The receiving mechanism 400 is connected to the frame 100. The receiving mechanism 400 is covered at the bottom of the blade disc 300 and is provided with a discharge port 410. Figure 3 As shown, the upper end opening of the material receiving mechanism 400 is provided for the knife disc 300 to be inserted into and receive the sheet material cut by the knife disc 300.

The lower end of the top cover 500 is opened to cover the upper part of the cutter disc 300. The top cover 500 and the material receiving mechanism 400 cover the cutter disc 300 so that no material overflows from other positions.

[0044] A feed port 510 is provided at the front side of the top cover 500 ; a feed hopper 600 is connected to the top cover 500 , and the feed hopper 600 corresponds to the feed port 510 to guide the material into the top cover 500 , that is, the discharge port of the feed hopper 600 is aligned with the feed port 510 .

[0045] The utility model provides a food slicer, which utilizes a rotary drive mechanism 200 to drive a rotating shaft 110 and a knife disc 300 to rotate, and slices food materials that are about to enter a top cover 500 from a feed hopper 600; the knife disc 300 can rotate to slice the materials that are close to its front side and guide the slices to the rear side of the knife disc 300, and the paddle plate 330 is used to push the sheet materials that enter the rear side of the knife disc 300 outwards, thereby reducing the adhesion of the materials to the knife disc, reducing the residual materials and accumulation of the materials on the knife disc and the rotation path of the knife disc, avoiding affecting the slicing and discharging, and the paddle plate 330 can also generate wind force to blow the materials toward the discharging port 410, so that the materials can be discharged smoothly and automatically, and will not be accumulated in the receiving mechanism 400.

[0046] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments of the present invention, the top cover 500 is semicircular, so as to better fit the wrapping cutter disc 300. The material receiving mechanism 400 has a material guide portion 420 extending along the direction in which the material is moved by the shifting plate 330, and a material discharge port 410 is provided at the end of the material guide portion 420. The material guide portion 420 is provided with a material discharge channel for material output, and the material discharge port 410 is the outlet of the material discharge channel. The material guide portion 420 extends horizontally as a whole, such as Figure 2 As shown, the material guide portion 420 extends to the right, and the bottom wall of the material guide portion 420 is inclined downward toward the discharge port 410, so that the material can flow outwardly with an inclination, and then the material is discharged smoothly and automatically by the rotation and toggling of the dial plate 330. In addition, the dial plate 330 can also generate wind force, which blows the material toward the discharge port 410, making the material discharge smoother.

The sleeve portion 520 is sleeved on the upper end of the material receiving mechanism 400, which can effectively prevent juice from splashing, reduce juice residue on the machine, and reduce the frequency of machine cleaning.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present invention, the left or right side of the top cover 500 is hinged to the frame 100, so that when the cutter head needs to be cleaned, the top cover 500 can be rotated to one side to open, and the top cover 500 can be rotated and reset after cleaning, which is simple and convenient to operate. For details, refer to Figure 2 The right side of the top cover 500 is hinged to the frame 100 via a hinge 530 .

[0053] In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotary drive mechanism 200 is connected to the rotating shaft 110 via a conveyor belt or a transmission chain, so that the rotary drive mechanism 200 is conveniently arranged at the bottom of the frame 100, making the entire machine more compact.

[0054] Reference Figure 6 In some embodiments of the utility model, a folding plate 331 is provided at the outer end of the paddle plate 330, which is bent in the opposite direction to the preset direction. For example, if the preset direction is counterclockwise, the folding plate 331 is bent in the clockwise direction relative to the paddle plate 330. The folding plate 331 causes the material to be subjected to a greater centrifugal force, making it easier to be thrown out, and the material discharge is smoother.
