[0040] In addition, terms such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] It should be noted that the features in the embodiments of the present utility model can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , this embodiment provides a shrimp meat clamping device, including a spiral drill bit 11, a rotating mechanism 100, and a sliding mechanism 200;

[0043] The rotating mechanism 100 is connected to the sliding mechanism 200, and the sliding mechanism 200 is configured to be able to drive the rotating mechanism 100 to move along the first straight line direction A to approach or move away from the shrimp body;

[0044] The rotating shaft 110 of the rotating mechanism 100 is arranged along the first linear direction A; the spiral drill bit 11 is arranged on the rotating shaft 110 of the rotating mechanism 100, and the central axis of the spiral drill bit 11 is located in the extending direction of the rotating shaft 110.

[0045] In the shrimp meat clamping device of this solution, the rotating mechanism 100 continues to move to drive the spiral drill bit 11 to rotate. At the same time, the sliding mechanism 200 cooperates with the rotating mechanism 100 to move closer to the shrimp body, so as to screw the spiral drill bit 11 into the shrimp body. The spiral body of the spiral drill bit 11 extends in a spiral shape. When the spiral drill bit 11 pierces into the shrimp body, the shrimp meat will be squeezed in the radial direction of the spiral drill bit 11 on the one hand and in the axial direction of the spiral drill bit 11 on the other hand. In this way, the spiral drill bit 11 can generate squeezing and clamping forces with the shrimp body in the axial and radial directions, so that the spiral drill bit 11 is stably connected to the shrimp body to achieve the clamping effect, facilitating subsequent automated processes such as cutting the shrimp line of the shrimp body. It should be noted that in order to prevent the shrimp body from rotating circumferentially when the spiral drill bit 11 pierces, the shrimp body can be manually supported to avoid the shrimp body from rotating by itself, or a lateral baffle / lateral clamping mechanism can be set to avoid the shrimp body from rotating by itself. Compared with the prior art that requires manually removing the shrimp line or manually delivering the shrimp body to the cutting mechanism, such a shrimp meat clamping device has the advantages of simple structure and convenient operation.

[0046] Please continue to refer to Figures 1 to 3 to understand more structural details of the shrimp meat clamping device. The sliding mechanism 200 has a fixed shrimp placing platform 12. The shrimp body can be received on the shrimp placing platform 12, and the sliding mechanism 200 can drive the rotation to approach or move away from the shrimp placing platform 12, thus facilitating the clamping operation of the shrimp body.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment, the rotating mechanism 100 is a motor. It is not difficult to understand that in other embodiments of the present invention, the rotating mechanism 100 can also be a pneumatic motor or a hydraulic motor.

[0048] Optionally, the sliding mechanism 200 includes a slide rail 210 and a power unit 220; the slide rail 210 is arranged along the first linear direction A; the power unit 220 is movably arranged on the slide rail 210 to move along the extending direction of the slide rail 210; the rotating mechanism 100 is arranged on the power unit 220. Further, in an alternative embodiment, the sliding mechanism 200 is a linear motor, and the rotating mechanism 100 is arranged on the mover of the linear motor. That is, the slide rail 210 is the track of the linear motor, and the power unit 220 is the mover and stator of the linear motor.

[0049] It should be noted that in other embodiments of the present invention, the sliding mechanism 200 can also be a lead screw 430 nut mechanism, a belt drive mechanism, a gear rack mechanism, etc. This is only an example here and is not limited.

[0050] In an optional embodiment, the spiral drill bit 11 is a wire piece that is spirally extended along the first straight line direction A to form a wire-wound drill bit. In this way, the spiral drill bit 11 has axial and radial clearances to accommodate the shrimp meat; when the spiral drill bit 11 penetrates the shrimp meat, a spiral channel matching the spiral drill bit 11 can be formed, which can ensure a close fit between the spiral drill bit 11 and the shrimp meat, while not causing excessive damage to the shrimp meat.

[0051] In an optional embodiment, the wire diameter of the thread piece is 0.3-1.5 mm. When the wire diameter is small, the rigidity of the spiral drill bit 11 is small, which makes the spiral drill bit 11 easy to deform during the process of piercing the shrimp meat and pulling; when the wire diameter is large, the spiral hole in the shrimp meat is too large after the spiral drill bit 11 is screwed out, which will reduce the quality of the shrimp meat.

[0052] In an optional embodiment, the outer diameter of the spiral drill bit 11 is 4-6 mm. When the outer diameter of the spiral drill bit 11 is small, when the spiral drill bit 11 is screwed into the shrimp meat and the subsequent shrimp body processing operation is performed, the shrimp body is easy to rotate and fall under the action of gravity, thereby affecting the processing of the shrimp body; when the outer diameter of the spiral drill bit 11 is large, the oversized spiral drill bit 11 cannot be screwed into the shrimp body with a small cross-section, thereby affecting the application range of the shrimp meat clamping device.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, the spiral drill bit 11 is made of a high-strength alloy, which can improve the wear resistance and drawing life of the spiral drill bit 11.

[0054] It can also be seen from the figure that in an optional embodiment, the shrimp meat clamping device also includes a clamping mechanism, which includes a clamping assembly 300 and a transmission assembly 400; the clamping assembly 300 can be movably matched with the rotating mechanism 100; the transmission assembly 400 cooperates with the clamping assembly 300, so that the clamping assembly 300 can be close to the spiral drill bit 11 to straighten the shrimp body, or the clamping assembly 300 can be moved away from the spiral drill bit 11 to release the shrimp body.

[0055] The clamping mechanism here provides a clamping force on the outside of the shrimp body to ensure that the spiral drill bit 11 can smoothly penetrate into the shrimp meat.

[0056] In this embodiment, the transmission assembly 400 includes a support 410, a slider 420, a lead screw 430, and a connecting rod 440. The lead screw 430 is connected to the rotating shaft 110 of the rotating mechanism 100 and is arranged coaxially with the rotating shaft 110. The slider 420 is in threaded engagement with the lead screw 430, so that when the rotating mechanism 100 rotates, the slider 420 is driven to move along the extension direction of the lead screw 430. Along the length direction of the connecting rod 440, one end of the connecting rod 440 is rotatably engaged with the slider 420 through a first rotating shaft 510, and the other end of the connecting rod 440 is rotatably connected to the clamping assembly 300 through a second rotating shaft 520. The support 410 is connected to the rotating mechanism 100, and the clamping assembly 300 is movably arranged at one end of the support 410 away from the rotating mechanism 100 through a third rotating shaft 530. Along the direction perpendicular to the lead screw 430, the distance between the third rotating shaft 530 and the lead screw 430 is less than the length of the connecting rod 440.

[0057] That is, the transmission assembly 400 provides a driving force for moving along the first linear direction A through the cooperation of the lead screw 430 and the slider 420. The cooperation between the connecting rod 440 and the slider 420 enables the clamping assembly 300 to move closer to or away from the auger bit 11 around the third rotating shaft 530 in a reciprocating manner.

[0058] Furthermore, by setting the lead screw 430 with an extremely small lead, when the rotating mechanism 100 drives the screw rod to be screwed in, the clamping rod 320 has only a very small change amplitude, avoiding excessive inward clamping of the clamping rod 320 during the screwing-in process. Preferably, the speed at which the sliding mechanism 200 drives the rotating mechanism 100 to move towards the shrimp body matches the stroke speed at which the auger bit 11 penetrates the shrimp body, so that when the rotating mechanism 100 rotates one circle, the sliding mechanism 200 just moves a distance equal to one stroke of the auger bit 11. That is, the rotating mechanism 100 and the sliding mechanism 200 cooperate with each other to facilitate the smooth screwing-in of the auger bit 11 into the shrimp body; and the spiral hole formed in the shrimp meat after screwing in has the same size as the winding of the auger bit 11.

[0059] It can also be seen from the figure that in this embodiment, the shrimp meat clamping device includes two clamping assemblies 300 arranged oppositely. The two clamping assemblies 300 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lead screw 430. Optionally, the support 410 includes two support arms 411, and each support arm 411 corresponds to one clamping assembly 300. An accommodation space 412 is formed between the two support arms 411, and the swing rod 310 and the connecting rod 440 are located in the accommodation space 412. This is beneficial to improving the space utilization rate of the shrimp meat clamping device.

[0060] In an alternative embodiment, the clamping assembly 300 includes a swing rod 310 and a clamping rod 320; along the length direction of the swing rod 310, one end of the swing rod 310 is rotatably engaged with the second rotating shaft 520, and the other end of the swing rod 310 is connected to the third rotating shaft 530; the third rotating shaft 530 is rotatably arranged on the support 410; the swing rod 310 is fixedly connected to the third rotating shaft 530. The connection modes of the swing rod 310 and the clamping rod 320 can simplify the assembly and maintenance of the clamping assembly 300 and the transmission assembly 400. Optionally, the clamping rod 320 is detachably connected to the third rotating shaft 530, so that it is convenient for the loading and unloading and maintenance of the clamping rod 320, and the angle between the swing rod 310 and the clamping rod 320 can be adjusted to finely adjust the clamping stroke of the shrimp body.

[0061] Optionally, the length of the clamping rod 320 is greater than the length of the swing rod 310. This can ensure a better side clamping effect on the whole shrimp body.

[0062] In an alternative embodiment, the swing rod 310 and the clamping rod 320 are in the same straight line direction. In this way, the rotation angle of the swing rod 310 is the same as the rotation angle of the clamping rod 320.

[0063] In an alternative embodiment, the clamping rod 320, the lead screw 430, and the slider 420 are all in the same plane; the swing rod 310 and the connecting rod 440 are both below the slider 420. The advantage of this is that the clamping rod 320 of the clamping assembly 300, the shrimp body, and the spiral drill bit 11 can be in the same plane to complete the axial clamping and side clamping of the shrimp body.

[0064] During use, place the shrimp body on the shrimp placing platform 12 with the shrimp head facing the clamping mechanism. First, adjust the clamping mechanism so that the clamping rod 320 is in an open state, and approach the shrimp body on the shrimp placing platform 12 through the sliding mechanism 200. Then drive the lead screw 430 to rotate through the rotating mechanism 100, and the slider 420 slides on the lead screw 430 and simultaneously drives the connecting rod 440 to swing; when the swing rod 310 is driven to swing inward by the connecting rod 440, the clamping rod 320 swings inward synchronously, so as to clamp and straighten the shrimp (not clamp tightly, only apply a lateral supporting force to the shrimp body); then the rotating mechanism 100 continues to move to drive the spiral drill bit 11 to rotate, and at the same time the sliding mechanism 200 at the bottom cooperates with the rotating mechanism 100 to approach the shrimp body, so as to screw the spiral drill bit 11 into the shrimp meat to provide an internal clamping force for the shrimp meat. By setting the lead screw 430 with an extremely small lead, when the rotating mechanism 100 drives the spiral drill bit 11 to be screwed in, the clamping rod 320 has only a very small change amplitude, avoiding excessive inward clamping of the clamping rod 320 during the screwing-in process.

[0065] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention provides a shrimp meat clamping device, which has at least the following advantages:

[0066] 1. There is no damage on the outside of the shrimp meat, and there is only a small hole the size of the spiral drill bit 11 inside the shrimp meat. When the spiral drill bit 11 is withdrawn, almost no damage can be seen on the shrimp meat.

[0067] 2. There is no need to change the mechanical structure according to the size of the shrimps, and the structure is simple.

[0068] 3. Through the penetration length of the spiral drill bit 11 and the force of the shrimp meat expanding inward, a relatively large clamping force can be provided, which is convenient for pulling the shrimp meat during the shelling process.

[0069] 4. Particularly, the two-side clamping rods 320 do not need to be provided, and the shrimp body can be straightened through an external clamping method.

[0070] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model should be covered by the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
