[0020] See attached Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a kudzu root slicing device 10, which includes a frame 100, a feeding unit 200 for feeding kudzu roots, a slicing unit 300 for slicing kudzu roots, and a conveying unit 400 for conveying kudzu root slices.

[0021] The frame 100 is formed in a generally rectangular shape and has a motor 110 built therein. The motor 110 has a motor shaft (motor rotating shaft) 111 installed upwardly tilted relative to the horizontal direction, and the motor shaft 111 is connected to the rotating shaft 321 of the rotating blade 320 through a pulley and a belt so that the rotating blade 320 can be rotated by the drive of the motor 110.

[0022] A control panel (not shown) including a power switch for controlling power supplied to the motor 110 and a speed regulator for controlling a rotation speed of the motor 110 may be installed in the frame 100 .

[0023] Rollers 120 are installed at the four lower corners of the rack 100 to enable the device to move. In addition, fixing screws 130 are installed to fix the device to the ground.

[0024] The feeding unit 200 is used to input the kudzu root into the interior of the shell 310. The feeding unit 200 is installed on the upper part of the frame 100 and is connected to the input port 301 of the slicing unit 300, and has a plurality of conveying rollers 220 at a predetermined angle relative to the horizontal direction, preferably 45°, so that the kudzu root 1 can be continuously supplied to the entrance 301 of the slicing unit 300 and conveyed by its own weight through the rolling rotation of the plurality of conveying rollers 220.

[0025] The feeding unit 200 may include a mounting frame 210 and a plurality of conveying rollers 220 , wherein the input frame 210 is disposed at a certain angle relative to the horizontal direction and is fixedly mounted on the upper portion of the frame 100 and connected to an input port 301 formed on one side of the slicing unit 300 .

[0026] The mounting frame 210 is formed in a V shape with respect to the input direction of the kudzu root 1 and is composed of a frame having a certain length along the input direction of the kudzu root 1. The mounting frame 210 may be fixed to the upper portion of the frame 100 by a V-shaped fixing device 230 installed at the lower portion.

[0027] A plurality of conveying rollers 220 are installed to be able to roll and rotate on the mounting frame 210. For example, the rotating shaft 220a of the conveying roller 220 is disposed in a transverse direction of the input direction of the kudzu root 1, and both ends of the rotating shaft 220a of the conveying roller 220 are rotatably coupled to the mounting frame 210.

[0028] The plurality of conveying rollers 220 may include a first conveying roller assembly 221 having a plurality of conveying rollers 220 arranged on one side at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction of the mounting frame 210 and a second conveying roller assembly 222 running in the longitudinal direction of the mounting frame 210 .

[0029] The first conveying roller assembly 221 and the second conveying roller assembly 222 are arranged in a V shape, and the kudzu root 1 is introduced between the first conveying roller assembly 221 and the second conveying roller assembly 222 to form a conveying passage. Since the kudzu root 1 is conveyed by the rolling rotation of the conveying roller 220. Therefore, since the kudzu root 1 is introduced between the first conveying roller assembly 221 and the second conveying roller assembly 222 arranged in a V shape, the kudzu root 1 will not be twisted to the left or right during the conveying process by the conveying roller 220. And inserted into the alignment position, regardless of the size of the diameter size 1 of the introduced kudzu root, it can be input.

[0030] The slicing unit 300 is installed at the upper portion of the frame 100 and connected to the outlet end of the feeding unit 200. The slicing unit 300 may cut the kudzu root 1 introduced through the feeding unit 200 into slices when the rotary blade 320 rotates therein.

[0031] The cutting unit 300 may include a housing 310 having an input port 301 formed on one side connected to the mounting frame 210 through which the kudzu root 1 is introduced, and a discharge port 302 formed on the lower side of the other side opposite to the input port 301, and a rotating blade 320.

[0032] The housing 310 is installed on the upper part of the frame 100 at a certain angle relative to the vertical direction, and preferably the housing 310 and the feeding unit 200 are arranged at a right angle. That is, the input direction of the kudzu root 1 introduced through the feeding unit 200 and the rotation direction of the rotating blade 320 form an angle of 90 degrees, so that the kudzu root 1 can be cut into uniform slices.

[0033] The housing 310 is formed in a cylindrical shape having an open front surface, and a discharge port 302 is formed at the bottom.

[0034] A hinge connection portion (not shown) hingedly connected to the flip cover 311 is installed on one side of the housing 310, and the flip cover 311 seals the opened front of the housing 310 on the other side of the housing 310. The cover fastening member 312 may be installed so that it can be fastened to the housing 310.

[0035] The flip cover 311 has the same cross-sectional shape as the open front surface of the housing 310. The flip cover 311 is rotatably hinged to one side of a hinge coupling portion of the housing 310 to open and close the open front of the housing 310.

[0036] A cover handle 313 is formed on a front side of the flip cover 311 so that a worker can easily open and close the flip cover 311 through the cover handle 313. At least one rotary blade 320 is mounted on a rotary plate connected to the motor shaft (motor rotating shaft) 111 in the housing 310, and is inserted into the housing 310 through the feeding unit 200. Cut the kudzu root 1 into slices. At this time, the rotary blade 320 automatically cuts the kudzu root 1 into slices while rotating in a direction perpendicular to the input direction of the kudzu root 1. The conveying unit 400 is mounted on one side of the discharge port 302 of the slicing unit 300, and is used to convey the sliced ​​kudzu root 1a discharged through the discharge port 302 of the housing 310 in the form of slices to discharge it to the outside.

[0037] The conveying unit 400 is installed on the upper part of the conveying frame 410 arranged in the horizontal direction, so that the conveyor belt 420 is rotated on the circular track by the conveying motor 430. In the kudzu root slicing device 10 constructed as above, when the kudzu root 1 is input into the feeding unit 200, a plurality of conveying rollers 220 are arranged at an angle relative to the horizontal direction and roll and roll. The kudzu root 1 can be automatically fed into the housing 310 of the slicing unit 300 by its own weight and continuously fed, so no separate power is required. In addition, since the kudzu root 1 slides naturally through the conveying rollers 220, the operator does not need to press and convey the kudzu root 1 one by one.

[0038] Since the kudzu root 1 is introduced between the first conveying roller assembly 221 and the second conveying roller assembly 222 arranged in a V shape, the kudzu root 1 will not be twisted left and right during the process of being conveyed by the conveying roller 220, and can be conveyed forward in an aligned position, and can be conveyed regardless of the size and shape of the kudzu root 1 to be cut. The kudzu root introduced into the shell 310 through the feeding unit 200 is cut into slices by the rotating blade 320. At this time, the kudzu root 1 is automatically introduced into the shell 310 of the slicing unit 300 by its own weight through the rolling rotation of the conveying roller 220 set at an angle relative to the horizontal direction, and the sliced ​​kudzu root 1a cut into slices by the rotating blade 320 falls and is discharged through the discharge port 302 formed at the lower part of the shell 310, and is then conveyed and discharged by the conveyor belt 420 of the conveying unit 400.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
