[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0034] Embodiment 1:

[0035] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a root cutting device for asparagus processing, including a cutting table 1, a gantry 2, a clamping assembly 3, a cutting assembly 4, a mounting plate 5, a forward and reverse threaded screw 9, a telescopic cylinder 10 and a baffle 11 installed at the front end of the telescopic cylinder 10.

[0036] Among them, the cutting table 1 used for cutting the roots of asparagus is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed mud leakage holes 13 on the upper side, so that when cutting the roots of asparagus, the mud and sand particles scattered from the surface of the asparagus can be leaked from the table top of the cutting table 1 to avoid the accumulation of mud and sand on the cutting table 1. A gantry 2 is installed on the rear side of the upper end of the cutting table 1, and a horizontal positive and negative threaded rod 9 is arranged at the lower position inside the gantry 2. The two ends of the positive and negative threaded rod 9 are respectively connected to the two sides inside the gantry 2 for rotation. The positive and negative threaded rod 9 is controlled and driven by a servo motor 15 installed on one side of the outside of the gantry 2. A support plate 6 is installed on both sides of the lower end of the cutting table 1 to support the cutting table 1.

[0037] There are two movable blocks 301 arranged on the upper side of the cutting table 1 on both sides of the lower end of the gantry 2. The two movable blocks 301 are respectively threadedly connected to the two sides of the positive and negative screw rods 9. The two movable blocks 301 are driven to move closer to or away from each other through the rotation of the positive and negative screw rods 9. A lifting cylinder 302 is installed at the top of the gantry 2. A connecting plate 303 is installed on the lower end of the lifting cylinder 302 and the upper side of the movable block 301. The connecting plate 303 is L-shaped, and a clamping roller 304 is rotatably connected to the front side of each connecting plate 303. Through the mutual approach or distance between the movable blocks 301 and the telescopic drive of the lifting cylinder 302, the three clamping rollers 304 are moved closer to or away from each other, and the spacing is adjusted to clamp asparagus of different thicknesses to form a clamping assembly 3.

[0038] In order to cut the clamped asparagus, a swing rod 401 is installed on one side of the upper end of the cutting table 1, the lower end of the swing rod 401 is hinged to the upper side of the cutting table 1, the upper end of the swing rod 401 can swing, and a cutting motor 403 and a cutting blade 402 connected to the rear end rotating shaft of the cutting motor 403 are respectively installed at the front and rear ends of the upper end of the swing rod 401. The cutting blade 402 swings with the swing rod 401 to cut the clamped asparagus. In order to control the swing of the swing rod 401, a movable hole 7 is opened on one side of the upper end of the cutting table 1, a connecting rod 8 is installed on the inner side of one of the support plates 6, and an angle adjustment cylinder 404 is hinged at one end of the connecting rod 8. The upper end of the angle adjustment cylinder 404 is hinged to the swing rod 401, and the swing rod 401 is driven to swing on the cutting table 1 by the extension and contraction of the angle adjustment cylinder 404.

[0039] Embodiment 2:

[0040] The solution in Example 1 is further introduced below in combination with a specific working method, as described below:

[0041] A discharge port 12 is provided on the upper side of the cutting table 1, so that the asparagus with roots cut off can be discharged from the upper side of the cutting table 1. In order to collect the cut asparagus conveniently, a discharge hopper 14 is installed at the lower end of the cutting table 1, and the asparagus with roots removed can slide out from the discharge hopper 14. In order to ensure the stability of the asparagus being clamped and to control the falling of the asparagus, a telescopic cylinder 10 is installed on the front side of the upper end of the cutting table 1, and a baffle 11 is installed at the rear end of the telescopic cylinder 10 to hold the asparagus.

[0042] The asparagus head whose root needs to be removed is facing the baffle 11, and the root is placed between the clamping rollers 304. The movable blocks 301 are adjusted to be close to each other, and the lifting cylinder 302 is extended and retracted to clamp the asparagus. The extension and retraction of the telescopic cylinder 10 is controlled by the PLC system, and the baffle 11 holds the head of the asparagus. The extension and retraction of the angle adjustment cylinder 404 is controlled to drive the swing rod 401 to swing, and the root of the asparagus is cut. The telescopic cylinder 10 is retracted, and the lifting cylinder 302 is retracted at the same time. The asparagus after the root is removed also falls from the discharge port 12 into the inside of the discharge hopper 14 and slides forward along the discharge hopper 14.

[0043] The electrical components appearing in this article are all connected to an external main controller and 220V AC power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device that controls a computer, etc. The specific implementation method of the present disclosure omits the detailed description of known functions and known components. To ensure the compatibility of the equipment, the operating methods used are consistent with the parameters of marketed equipment.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
