Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bean product cutting, in particular to an automatic cutting mechanism and a full-automatic dried bean curd machine. Background Art

[0002] The S-type full-automatic dried bean curd machine generally includes the following processes

[0003] Raw material processing: The soybeans are pre-treated through cleaning, soaking and other steps to ensure the cleanliness and sufficient water absorption of the soybeans.

[0004] Grinding and residue removal: Through the grinding and residue removal system, the soaked soybeans are ground into bean paste. The ground bean paste is first heated and cooked, and then filtered to obtain soy milk.

[0005] Cooking soy milk: The ground soy milk is sent into the soy milk cooking system, and the protein in the soy milk is denatured and coagulated by heating to prepare for the subsequent forming process.

[0006] Forming and pressing: The cooked soy milk (or called bean curd) is sent into the pressing system, and the excess water in the bean curd is discharged by applying pressure to form a firm and elastic dried bean curd. The pressing system of the full-automatic dried bean curd machine usually adopts a hydraulic drive mode.

[0007] Subsequent processing: After the dried bean curd is pressed and formed, it will first be subjected to preliminary processing, such as removing excess scraps or adjusting the position of the dried bean curd, etc.;

[0008] Cutting operation: Subsequently, the full-automatic dried bean curd machine will start the cutting equipment, and through the preset program and parameters, the dried bean curd will be precisely cut. The cutting tool will move and cut according to the set size and shape to ensure that each piece of dried bean curd meets the standard;

[0009] Subsequent processing: After cutting, the dried bean curd may be further processed, such as cleaning, drying or packaging, etc., for subsequent storage and sales;

[0010] In order to improve the cutting efficiency, an automatic cutting equipment is generally set up for intelligent cutting, and the whole piece of bean curd is cut horizontally and vertically. After cutting, the equipment needs to be cleaned in time to avoid bacterial growth;

[0011] Setting the conveying mechanism directly on the workbench will cause the juice on the tray and the residue generated after cutting to drip downward, polluting the workbench surface, and installing the transmission mechanism directly on the workbench surface will cause sanitary dead corners on the workbench surface, which are difficult to clean.

[0038] Embodiment

[0039] Refer to Figures 1-4 , an S-type fully automatic dried bean curd machine, including a cutting station. The cutting station includes a frame. A plurality of support feet are installed at the lower part of the frame. A workbench surface 6 is provided at the top of the frame. Two guide rails 13 are detachably installed on the workbench surface 6. The guide rails 13 are detachable. When cleaning the workbench surface 6, the guide rails 13 can be conveniently detached, making the cleaning more thorough and avoiding the generation of sanitary dead corners. When the soy products are conveyed and cut on the workbench surface 6, the dropped juice or dregs can be conveniently cleaned up without residue. A tray 2 is slidably connected to the guide rails 13. Four L-shaped mounting plates 27 are installed at the bottom of the tray 2. The inner sides of the mounting plates 20 are in contact with and limited by the guide rails 13. A rotating roller 28 is rotatably connected to the mounting plates 20. By installing the rotating roller 28, the conveyance of the tray 2 is smooth and stable, making the cutting process more stable. By making the mounting plates 20 fit against the outer sides of the guide rails 13, the tray 2 is prevented from moving in the horizontal direction, making the cutting of soy products more regular. The rotating roller 28 is pressed on the guide rails 13. A folding edge 3 that encloses a rectangle is left at the upper part of the tray 2. Generally, two horizontally arranged support rods are installed at the lower part of the tray for conveying soy products. When placing the tray on the tray 2, the side of the support rod away from the first mounting frame 16 and the second mounting frame 14 is closely attached to the folding edge 3, so that the tray does not move during the cutting operation, making the cutting of soy products regular. A connecting section 4 is installed on one side of the tray 2. A first step is left at the end of the connecting section 4. A plurality of limiting blocks 25 are fixed on the first step;

[0040] On one side of the workbench surface 6, two mounting seats 12, a first bracket 8 and a second bracket 11 are fixed. A first screw rod 10 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 12. One end of the first screw rod 10 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 1. The first screw rod 10 is rotationally connected to the driving head 5 through a thread. By driving the first screw rod 10 to rotate by the first motor 1, the rotation of the first screw rod 10 will cause the driving head 5 to move along the direction of the first screw rod 10. By the first motor 1, the tray 2 can be driven to move to the cross-cutting station at the first mounting frame 16 and the longitudinal-cutting station at the second mounting frame 14 in sequence, so as to cut the soy products. And by the way of cross-cutting and longitudinal-cutting on the side, it can avoid directly cutting the relatively tough surface of the soy products vertically downward, resulting in the damage of the appearance of the soy products. There is a second step on one side of the driving head 5. A plurality of first limiting holes 26 adapted to the limiting blocks 25 are opened on the second step. After the limiting blocks 25 are inserted into the first limiting holes 26, they are fixed by bolts, detachably connecting the tray 2 and the first screw rod 10, so that it can be detached when cleaning the workbench surface 6 and the tray 2. By arranging the first motor 1 and the first screw rod 10 on one side of the workbench surface 6, the juice and dirt will not contact the first motor 1 and the first screw rod 10, avoiding the generation of sanitary dead corners.

[0041] At the top of the first bracket 8, a guide rod 18 and a second screw rod 17 are installed. The guide rod 18 and the second screw rod 17 span the workbench surface 6, and the guide rod 18 and the second screw rod 17 are perpendicular to the workbench surface 6. One end of the second screw rod 17 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor. The guide rod 18 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 8, and the second screw rod 17 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 8. The second screw rod 17 is connected to the first mounting frame 16 through a thread. By the second motor, the first mounting frame 16 can be driven to move horizontally so as to span the workbench surface 6, completing the transverse cutting operation of the soy products. The second screw rod 17 is arranged parallel to the guide rod 18. By arranging the guide rod 18, the first mounting frame 16 can move smoothly and stably in the horizontal direction during the movement. The first mounting frame 16 is installed on the second screw rod 17 and the guide rod 18. The first mounting frame 16 is arranged along the length direction of the workbench. A plurality of cutter mechanisms are fixed on the first mounting frame 16;

[0042] A sensor 9 is installed on the first support 8. The sensor 9 can be a photoelectric sensor 9, a proximity sensor 9, etc. The sensor 9 is connected to a controller 7. The controller 7 can be a PLC, a single-chip microcomputer or other types of intelligent control devices. The first motor 1 and the second motor are connected to the controller 7. After the sensor 9 senses the tray 2, it controls the first motor 1 to stop and the second motor to start. After the first motor 1 stops, the tray 2 will stop moving, and the first screw rod 10 and the driving head 5 will be limited due to the threaded connection to prevent the tray 2 from moving. At the same time, when the second motor starts, it will drive the first mounting frame 16 to move along the direction of the guide rail 13. The support rod at the lower part of the tray is far away from one side of the first mounting frame 16 and the second mounting frame 14 and closely adheres to the folding edge 3. When the cutting mechanism on the first mounting frame 16 performs horizontal cutting, the folding edge 3 provides a reverse force to limit the tray;

[0043] At the top of the second support 11, a mounting rod 15 spanning the workbench surface 6 is fixed. A second mounting frame 14 is fixedly installed on the mounting rod 15. A plurality of cutting mechanisms are installed on the second mounting frame 14. When the tray 2 moves along the length direction of the workbench surface 6, it will pass through the second mounting frame 14, and the second mounting frame 14 can longitudinally cut the soy products on the tray 2;

[0044] The cutting mechanism includes a fixed sleeve 19. A through threaded hole is opened at the top of the fixed sleeve 19, and a locking nut is installed in the threaded hole. A through hole is opened in the middle of the fixed sleeve 19. After loosening the locking nut, the fixed sleeve 19 can move on the first mounting frame 16 or the second mounting frame 14 to adjust the interval between the fixed sleeves 19, so as to adjust the interval of the cutting knives 21 and independently adjust the cutting position. One side of the fixed sleeve 19 is fixed with a mounting plate 20. A limit stud 24 is fixed on the mounting plate 20. A second limit hole is opened at the upper end of the cutting knife 21, and the second limit hole is sleeved on the limit stud 24. A limit pressing block 23 is fixed on the limit stud 24 through a nut. A groove 22 adapted to the cutting knife 21 is opened on the inner side of the limit pressing block 23. The cutting knife 21 is limited by the limit stud 24 to prevent the cutting knife 21 from moving horizontally. The cutting knife 21 is pressed by the limit pressing block 23, and the cutting knife 21 is limited by the groove 22 to prevent the cutting knife 21 from rotating.

[0045] A full-automatic dried bean curd machine. After the full-automatic dried bean curd machine grinds the beans, removes the residue, cooks the beans, determines the brine, wraps the blocks, presses the blocks, and colors them, it is sent to the above automatic cutting mechanism for cutting and dividing into pieces.

[0046] The working principle of this application is:

[0047] The first motor 1 drives the tray 2 to reciprocate on the workbench surface 6. The tray 2 is used to install a tray board, and the tray board is used to hold the soy products;

[0048] The tray 2 moves to transport the soy products to the cross-cutting station. The position of the tray 2 is sensed by the sensor 9. After the tray 2 moves to the cross-cutting station, the controller 7 receives the signal from the sensor 9. The controller 7 controls the first motor 1 to stop, so that the tray 2 stops at the cross-cutting station. The controller 7 controls the second motor to start, and the second motor drives the cutting mechanism on the first mounting frame 16 to perform a transverse cut on the soy products;

[0049] After the transverse cutting is completed, the controller 7 controls the second motor to stop, and the first motor 1 starts again. The first motor 1 drives the tray 2 to continue moving, so that the tray 2 passes through the longitudinal cutting station at the second mounting frame 14. When the soy products pass through the second mounting frame 14, the movement of the tray 2 cooperates with the cutting mechanism fixed on the second mounting frame 14 to complete the longitudinal cutting.

[0050] Setting the first motor 1 and the first screw 10 on one side of the workbench 6 can prevent the juice and residues generated during the cutting process from falling onto the first screw 10, and there will be no sanitary dead corners. When cleaning the workbench 6, the tray 2 and the guide rail 13 can be conveniently removed, so that the workbench 6 and the tray 2 can be rinsed to avoid the residue of juice and residues.

[0051] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can easily think of changes or substitutions, which should all be covered within the protection scope of the present invention; without conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
