Detailed Description of the Embodiment

[0022] The following will be combined with Figures 1 - 4 to further elaborate on the present utility model in detail.

[0023] This embodiment discloses a mechanism for core sampling of cutting cabbages: Referring to Figures 1 - 4 , a mechanism for core sampling of cutting cabbages includes a frame 10, a core sampling assembly 20, and a control mechanism 30. The frame 10 includes a workbench 11;

[0024] The core-taking assembly 20 includes a support plate 21, a connecting plate 22, a limiting block 23, a plurality of straight cutting knives 24 and a plurality of inclined cutting knives 25. The connecting plate 22 is slidably arranged on the support plate 21, and its sliding position is controlled by a first driving member 211 arranged on the support plate 21. A plurality of the straight cutting knives 24 are vertically arranged on the front and rear sides of the bottom of the connecting plate 22. A plurality of the inclined cutting knives 25 are slidably arranged on the left and right sides of the bottom of the connecting plate 22. The inclined cutting knives 25 on both sides of the connecting plate 22 are inclined downward along the direction of approaching each other. Both ends of the limiting block 23 are arranged on the support plate 21 through side plates 231. A first limiting hole 232 for slidably connecting the straight cutting knife 24 is formed in the limiting block 23. A second limiting hole 233 for slidably connecting the inclined cutting knife 25 is formed in the limiting block 23;

[0025] The control mechanism 30 is arranged on the frame 10 and is used to control the sliding position of the support plate 21.

[0026] When core-taking is required, the cabbage can be placed on the workbench 11 first. Start the control mechanism 30 and lower the support plate 21. When the support plate 21 moves to a suitable position, start the first driving member 211 and lower the connecting plate 22. The limiting block 23 does not move. The straight cutting knife 24 moves downward under the limitation of the first limiting hole 232. While the inclined cutting knife 25 moves downward under the limitation of the second limiting hole 233 and moves along the direction of approaching each other, so that the two inclined cutting knives 25 descend obliquely in a V shape. In this way, the two inclined cutting knives 25 cooperate with the two straight cutting knives 24 to cut out the vegetable core. Start the control mechanism 30 and raise the support plate 21. The two straight cutting knives 24 and the two inclined cutting knives 25 move upward. The vegetable core is clamped in the space formed by the two inclined cutting knives 25 and the two straight cutting knives 24 and is pulled out. The worker can take away the cored cabbage placed on the workbench 11. Raise the connecting plate 22. The limiting block 23 does not move. The two inclined cutting knives 25 rise obliquely in a V shape. The distance between the bottoms of the two inclined cutting knives 25 increases, so that the vegetable core can fall off, which is convenient to take out. Therefore, the setting of the core-taking assembly 20 enables the operation of core-taking of cabbage to realize automatic core removal, achieving the purpose of safe production.

[0027] Refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a discharge port 111 is formed in the workbench 11, and a conveyor belt 12 is installed on the frame 10. The conveyor belt 12 is arranged below the discharge port 111.

[0028] After the core-taking assembly 20 completes the core-taking operation, the connecting plate 22 can be raised. The limiting block 23 does not move. The two inclined cutting knives 25 rise obliquely in a V shape. The distance between the bottoms of the two inclined cutting knives 25 increases, and the vegetable core falls off. The vegetable core will fall through the discharge port 111 onto the conveyor belt 12 during the falling process. Start the conveyor belt 12 to convey the vegetable core. The operation is simple and convenient, improving the automation degree of the mechanism.

[0029] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 , the control mechanism 30 includes a fixing plate 31 and a second driving member 32. The fixing plate 31 is slidably mounted on the frame 10, and the output end of the second driving member 32 penetrates through the fixing plate 31 and is connected to the support plate 21.

[0030] By starting the second driving member 32, the installation position of the support plate 21 on the frame 10 can be controlled, and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0031] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 , the control mechanism 30 further includes a third driving member 33. The output end of the third driving member 33 is connected to the fixing plate 31. A plurality of connecting rods 34 are provided at the bottom of the fixing plate 31. The lower ends of the connecting rods 34 penetrate through the support plate 21 and are connected to a baffle 35. The baffle 35 is disposed below the limiting block 23, and a limiting port 351 is opened at the bottom of the baffle 35.

[0032] When the two bevel cutters 25 and the two straight cutters 24 just cut out the cabbage core, start the second driving member 32 to move the support plate 21 upward. The two straight cutters 24 and the two bevel cutters 25 move upward, and the limiting block 23 moves upward. The cabbage core is clamped in the space formed by the two bevel cutters 25 and the two straight cutters 24 and is pulled out, and passes through the limiting port 351. At this time, the remaining part of the cabbage drops onto the workbench 11 under the block of the baffle 35. Therefore, the setting of the baffle 35 can further improve the probability of the cabbage core being taken out; by starting the third driving member 33, the core-taking assembly 20 and the baffle 35 can be driven to move upward through the fixing plate 31, which is convenient for the staff to take the cored cabbage.

[0033] Referring to Figures 2 - 3 , a displacement sensor 234 is installed on the limiting block 23; a proximity sensor 112 is installed on the workbench 11.

[0034] The displacement sensor 234 is used to measure and calculate the height of the cutter edge from the cabbage to determine the descending height of the main shaft, so as to adapt to cabbages of different sizes; the proximity sensor 112 is used to detect the presence of the cabbage, which is convenient for the core-taking assembly 20 to perform the core-taking operation.

[0035] Referring to Figure 4 , a plurality of support assemblies 40 are provided on the frame 10. The support assembly 40 includes a support plate 41, a support foot 42 and a universal wheel 43. The support plate 41 is disposed at the bottom of the frame 10.
