Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food machinery, in particular to a lotus root peeling cutter head. Background Art
[0002] In addition to being used as home-cooked dishes, a large number of deep-processed products have been developed from lotus roots, such as new categories like lotus root meatballs, marinated lotus root slices, lotus root starch, lotus root juice beverages, and lotus root prefabricated dishes. When lotus roots are subjected to deep processing, they generally need to be peeled. Traditional peeling methods are mostly manual operations. First, the lotus roots are washed, and after cutting off the lotus root nodes, a peeling tool is used to scrape off the outer skin. This operation method has problems such as high labor intensity of workers, unstable peeling quality, low efficiency, and difficulty in achieving large-scale production. Currently, existing mechanized peeling equipment mostly forms a peeling area by arranging the cutter heads on the cutter head along the circumferential direction of the food material, so that when the food material passes through the axis of the cutter head, the set number of cutter heads is used to complete the peeling process. However, due to the different sizes and shapes of each section of the lotus root and the difference in the radial dimensions of different parts of the same section of the lotus root, this type of cutter head is not suitable for peeling lotus roots.
[0003] In the prior art, the patent with the publication number CN 208609861 U discloses a peeling mechanism, which includes a cutter head. A material hole is provided on the cutter head, and multiple groups of cutting components are arranged on the side surface of the cutter head. The multiple groups of cutting components are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction with the material hole as the center. The cutting component includes a tool rest, a sliding rod, and a guiding and positioning block arranged on the same radial direction. The guiding and positioning block is fixedly connected to the cutter head. One end of the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the tool rest, and the other end of the sliding rod is slidably connected to the guiding and positioning block. A spring is sleeved on the sliding rod, and the spring is located between the tool rest and the guiding and positioning block. A blade is fixedly arranged on the tool rest. The peeling mechanism can simulate manual peeling, apply force evenly, and has a good peeling effect, and is applicable to sugar canes of different diameters. However, due to the special shape of the lotus root itself, that is, the radial dimensions of different parts of a single section of the lotus root are different, the above peeling mechanism is not suitable for peeling lotus roots.
[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to design a lotus root peeling cutter head to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a lotus root peeling cutter head that can adapt to the characteristics that the radial dimension of the lotus root first gradually increases and then gradually decreases, ensure the peeling effect, avoid the rotation of the lotus root during the peeling process from affecting the peeling process, and can also meet the peeling requirements of lotus roots of different sizes.
[0006] To achieve the above utility model purpose, the utility model provides a lotus root peeling cutter head, including:
[0007] A disk body, on which a central through hole for the lotus root to pass through is provided;
[0008] Support plates, a plurality of support plates are circumferentially and spacedly arranged on the disc around the central through hole, including a fixed section and an inclined section connected to the fixed section and having a certain elastic modulus.

[0009] Fixing and adjusting mechanism, including a fixing member for fixing the fixed section on the disc and an adjusting member for adjusting the inclination angle of the inclined section;
[0010] Pressing strips, a plurality of pressing strips having a certain elastic modulus are circumferentially and spacedly arranged on the disc around the central through hole and are located on the side of the inclined section close to the central through hole, forming an anti-rotation mechanism to prevent the lotus root from rotating when passing through the central through hole.
[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support plates are arranged in a staggered manner on the disc, so that when the cutter disc is placed vertically, the blades on one of the support plates and the blades on the adjacent support plate are in different vertical planes.
[0012] As a further improvement of the present invention, the fixing member includes a fixing plate parallel to the disc and an inclined pressing plate connected to the fixing plate and located on the side of the inclined section away from the central through hole.
[0013] As a further improvement of the present invention, the adjusting member is a bolt adjusting structure, including a bolt passing through the inclined pressing plate and abutting against the surface of the inclined section and a nut for limiting the position of the bolt.
[0014] As a further improvement of the present invention, the length from the contact point of the bolt with the inclined section to the end of the inclined section close to the fixed section is 1 / 5 - 1 / 3 of the length of the inclined section.
[0015] As a further improvement of the present invention, the pressing strip includes a fixed part fixed on the disc and an inclined part connected to the fixed part, and the inclined part extends in a posture of approaching the blade in the direction close to the center of the central through hole.

[0020] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the blade is connected to the inclined section through a rotating structure, and a limiting member for limiting the rotation range of the blade is further provided on the inclined section.
[0021] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0022] 1. By obliquely arranging the support plate in the present utility model, using a material with a certain elastic modulus to prepare the inclined section, and arranging the blade for peeling on the inclined section, when the lotus root passes through the central through-hole of the cutter head for peeling, the inclined section can present different bending deformation states according to the change of the radial dimension of the lotus root, so that the blade can always fit on the surface of the lotus root, ensuring the peeling quality of the lotus root. In addition, by adjusting the inclination angle of the inclined section through the adjusting member, on the one hand, the size of the peeling area formed by the blade can be adjusted to meet the peeling requirements of lotus roots of different sizes; on the other hand, the change of the inclination degree will further affect the interaction force between the blade and the lotus root, and thus affect the peeling thickness. Therefore, the inclination angle of the inclined section can be adjusted by the adjusting member to meet the peeling thickness control requirements while meeting the peeling requirements of lotus roots of different sizes.
[0023] 2.

Detailed Embodiments
[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0030] Here, it should also be noted that, in order to avoid obscuring the present utility model due to unnecessary details, only the structures and / or processing steps closely related to the solution of the present utility model are shown in the drawings, while other details less relevant to the present utility model are omitted.
[0031] In addition, it should be noted that the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or further includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
[0032] As Figure 1 shown, the present utility model provides a lotus root peeling cutter head, comprising:
[0033] A disk body 10, in the middle of which there is a central through hole 11 for the lotus root to pass through;
[0034] Support plates 20, a plurality of support plates 20 are circumferentially and spacedly arranged on the disk body 10 around the central through hole 11, including a fixed section 21 and an inclined section 22 connected to the fixed section 21 and having a certain elastic modulus. A blade 31 is arranged at one end of the inclined section 22 far from the fixed section 21, so that a plurality of blades 31 form a peeling area;
[0035] A fixing and adjusting mechanism, including a fixing member for fixing the fixed section 21 on the disk body 10 and an adjusting member for adjusting the inclination angle of the inclined section 22;
[0036] Pressing strips 60, a plurality of pressing strips 60 having a certain elastic modulus are circumferentially and spacedly arranged on the disk body 10 around the central through hole 11 and are located on one side of the inclined section 22 close to the central through hole 11, forming an anti-rotation mechanism to prevent the lotus root from rotating when passing through the central through hole 11.
[0037] Specifically, the blade 31 is detachably arranged on the inclined section 22 to facilitate the replacement of the blade 31 and ensure the peeling effect. The cutting edge of the blade 31 faces the central through hole 11; the diameter of the peeling area formed by a plurality of blades 31 is smaller than the diameter of the central through hole 11. As Figure 2 shown, exemplarily, the blade 31 is rotatably connected to one end of the inclined section 22 far from the fixed section 21 through a connecting frame 32. For the connection method between the connecting frame 32 and the inclined section 22, reference can be made to the connection method between the roller of an existing hair remover and the hair remover frame body to achieve the detachable connection between the blade 31 and the inclined section 22 and enable the blade 31 to rotate relative to the inclined section 22. The specific connection structure between the connecting frame 32 and the inclined section 22 will not be elaborated here.
[0038] A limiting member 33 for restricting the rotation range of the blade 31 is further provided on the inclined section 22.
[0039] Specifically, the elastic modulus of the inclined section 22 is such that when the lotus root passes through the central through-hole 11 of the cutter head for peeling, the inclined section 22 exhibits different bending deformation states with the change of the radial dimension of the lotus root, so that the blade 31 can always adhere to the surface of the lotus root to ensure the peeling quality of the lotus root. In addition, the rotational connection between the blade 31 and the inclined section 22 enables the blade 31 to rotate adaptively during different degrees of bending deformation of the inclined section 22, so that the cutting edge can always adhere to the surface of the lotus root in a better posture to ensure the peeling effect.
[0040] Exemplarily, the fixed section 21 and the inclined section 22 are integrally formed of a material with a certain elastic modulus, such as being bent from a thin steel sheet.
[0041] Specifically, a plurality of support plates 20 are symmetrically arranged on the disk body 10. Exemplarily, four support plates 20 are arranged in pairs symmetrically on the disk body 10, and one group of support plates 20 and the other group of support plates 20 are arranged staggeredly, so that when the cutter head is placed vertically, the blades 31 on one group of support plates 20 and the blades 31 on the other group of support plates 20 are in different vertical planes, thereby avoiding interference between adjacent blades 31 during the peeling process.
[0042] Exemplarily, a heightening block 40 is provided between the fixed section 21 of one group of support plates 20 and the disk body 10, and the other group of support plates 20 is directly installed on the disk body 10, so that the ends of the inclined sections 22 far from the fixed section 21 are arranged staggeredly, that is, the blades 31 are arranged staggeredly. The setting of the heightening block 40 can not only make the blades 31 arranged staggeredly, but also make the inclined sections 22 of each support plate 20 present the same inclination angle, so that the acting forces between each blade 31 and the side wall of the lotus root are the same or similar during the peeling process, so as to perform relatively uniform peeling treatment on the side wall of the same lotus root; if the heightening block 40 is not provided and the blades 31 are arranged staggeredly only by increasing the length of the inclined section 22, there will be a certain difference in the inclination angles of each inclined section 22, which may cause inconsistent bendable deformation degrees of the inclined sections 22 on each support plate 20 and affect the peeling uniformity of the lotus root.
[0043] Specifically, the fixing member includes a fixing plate 51 parallel to the disk body 10 and an inclined pressing plate 52 connected to the fixing plate 51 and located on the side of the inclined section 22 away from the central through hole 11; a plurality of first through holes are provided on the fixing plate 51, and a plurality of second through holes are correspondingly provided on the disk body 10. By sequentially passing the first bolt 511 through the two through holes and fixing it with the first nut 512, the fixing section 21 can be directly fixed on the disk body 10, realizing the fixation of the support plate 20 and the disk body 10. When the heightening block 40 is provided, corresponding through holes are also provided on the heightening block 40 for the first through holes, so that the first bolt 511 sequentially passes through the second through hole, the through hole and the first through hole and is fixed with the first nut 512, and the support plate 20 can be fixed on the disk body 10 through heightening treatment, thereby realizing the staggered arrangement of the blades 31.
[0044] The adjusting member is a bolt adjusting structure, including a second bolt 521 passing through the inclined pressing plate 52 and abutting against the inclined section 22 and a second nut 522 for limiting the position of the bolt. A third through hole is provided on the inclined pressing plate 52, and the second nut 522 is fixed on the inclined pressing plate 52 corresponding to the third through hole, so that the second bolt 521 passes through the second nut 522 and the third through hole, and the screwing-in length of the second bolt 521 relative to the inclined pressing plate 52 is adjusted, so that the second bolt 521 abuts against the inclined section 22, and the inclined section 22 can be made to present a certain inclination angle. When it is necessary to adjust the peeling area formed by the blades 31 to be suitable for lotus roots of different sizes, by adjusting the screwing-in length of the second bolt 521 relative to the inclined pressing plate 52, the inclined section 22 can be rotated upward or downward around its connection with the fixing section 21, so that the inclined section 22 presents different inclination angles, and thus a plurality of blades 31 approach or move away from each other to form different peeling areas. In addition, the adjustment of the inclination angle of the inclined section 22 will also affect the interaction force between the blade 31 and the lotus root during peeling, and thus affect the peeling thickness. That is, the present invention can also adjust the peeling thickness of the lotus root by adjusting the inclination angle of the inclined section 22 to meet the control requirements of the peeling thickness.
[0045] It should be noted that, in order to achieve the purpose of the adjusting member adjusting the inclination angle of the inclined section 22, generally, the strength of the inclined pressing plate 52 should be greater than that of the inclined section 22. Different materials can be used. For example, the inclined section 22 is made of a thin steel sheet, while the inclined pressing plate 52 is made of an iron sheet with low elasticity. Different thickness materials can also be used. The specific details of the present invention will not be elaborated here.
[0046] Specifically, the length from the contact point of the second bolt 521 and the inclined section 22 to the end of the inclined section 22 close to the fixing section 21 is 1 / 5 - 1 / 3 of the length of the inclined section 22, so that while facilitating the adjustment of the inclination angle of the inclined section 22, a certain supporting force can be given to the inclined section 22 by the adjusting member to control the length range of the bendable deformation of the inclined section 22 and ensure the peeling quality.
[0047] Specifically, the elastic modulus of the pressing strip 60 is less than that of the inclined section 22, so as to clamp the lotus root by means of a plurality of pressing strips 60, avoid the lotus root rotating by itself when passing through the central through hole 11, and affect the peeling treatment of the side wall of the lotus root by the blade 31. The elastic modulus of the pressing strip 60 is such that it can generate a certain clamping force on the lotus root without affecting the lotus root passing through the central through hole 11. The specific size of the elastic modulus can be set according to the actual situation.
[0048] The pressing strip 60 includes a fixing portion 61 fixed on the disk body 10 and an inclined portion 62 connected to the fixing portion 61. The inclined portion 62 extends in a posture along the direction close to the center of the central through hole 11 and towards the blade 31; an arc surface 621 for preventing scratching of the lotus root is provided at one end of the inclined portion 62 away from the fixing portion 61 ( Figure 3 ), and the arc surface 621 can also prevent, when the lotus root passes through the anti-rotation mechanism, the contact end of the pressing strip 60 and the lotus root from generating too much resistance to hinder the movement of the lotus root and the sharp angle at the front end of the pressing strip 70 from scratching the lotus root.
[0049] The pressing strip 60 is arranged inside the support plate 20, so that when the lotus root is peeled through the central through hole 11, it first contacts the inclined portion 62 of the pressing strip 60 and then can contact the blade 31 on the inclined section 22, which can effectively prevent the lotus root from rotating before contacting the blade 31 on the inclined section 22, thereby affecting the peeling quality.
[0050] It should be noted that generally, the starting point of the inclined portion 62 on the pressing strip 60 is arranged along the edge of the central through hole 11, while the radial distance between the starting point of the inclined section 22 on the support plate 20 and the edge of the central through hole 11 is generally set to be 1 - 5 cm, and the included angle between the inclined portion 62 and the axis of the central through hole 11 is less than the included angle between the inclined section 22 and the axis of the central through hole 11, approximately 2 - 10 degrees smaller. Such a setting enables the pressing strip 60 to maintain a good pressing force to prevent the lotus root from rotating and not interfere with the peeling of the blade on the inclined portion 62.
[0051] In order to obtain a suitable pressing force for the distribution of the pressing strip 60 and the support plate 20, generally, they can be made of materials with the same thickness (such as thin steel sheets), but the width of the inclined portion 62 is 1 / 3 - 1 / 5 of that of the inclined section 22, so as to enable the blade 31 to obtain a suitable peeling pressing force and the pressing strip 60 to obtain a suitable anti-rotation pressure without interfering with the peeling of the lotus root.
[0052] During use, align the axis of the lotus root with the center of the central through hole 11, and make the lotus root pass through the central through holes 11 of a plurality of disk bodies 10 in sequence. At this time, as the lotus root moves, the inclined section 22 shows different degrees of bending deformation, so that the blade 31 always fits on the side wall of the lotus root for peeling treatment of the lotus root.
[0053] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
