Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical equipment, and particularly relates to an assembly structure for a beef cutting and hanging conveyor. Background Art
[0002] In the current meat processing industry, after cattle are subjected to preliminary treatments such as slaughtering, bloodletting, hair removal, and viscera removal, carcasses are formed. The carcasses are hung up for subsequent cutting and slicing operations. The utility model with the authorized patent publication number CN218230508U discloses an assembly structure for a hanging conveyor in a slaughterhouse, which relates to the technical field of hanging conveying in a slaughterhouse. It includes a track, and the outer wall of the track is slidably connected with a moving wheel, and
[0003] a bracket is connected to the outside of the moving wheel. A connecting plate is installed below the bracket, and a limiting rod is connected below the connecting plate through a connecting shaft. A hook is installed inside the limiting rod through a rotating shaft, and a fork stop is movably sleeved on the surface of the hook.
[0004] In the above prior art, before cutting the legs of the carcass, workers need to manually grasp the hooves. This step usually requires workers to stand below or on the side of the hanging carcass, hold the hooves with gloves or other auxiliary tools, and then the workers will use knives to cut the legs. The long-term manual grasping and cutting work places high demands on the physical strength and endurance of the workers. Moreover, during the grasping and cutting process, the workers need to frequently contact sharp knives and slippery hooves, posing safety hazards such as cuts and slips. Content of the Utility Model

[0014] In the figure: 1, track; 2, traveling trolley; 3, connecting frame; 4, fork stop; 5, vertical rod; 6, chain; 7, clamp; 8, pressure bar; 9, bracket. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0015] In order to make the technical objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0016] An assembly structure for a beef cutting and hanging conveyor provided by the present utility model, as shown in the figure, includes a track 1 for hanging in the air, a traveling trolley 2 clamped on the track 1 and capable of traveling along the track 1, a fork stop 4, and a connecting frame 3 connecting the traveling trolley 2 and the fork stop 4. The fork stop 4 is a prior art, and its main structure includes at least two hooks for inserting into the carcass to connect and hang the carcass. No improvement has been made to the structure of the existing fork stop 4 in this application, so it will not be described further.
[0017] The connecting frame 3 is set as a cross structure. Connecting structures are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the connecting frame 3. Clamps 7 for clamping the cow's hooves are arranged at the ends of the connecting structures. The clamps 7 are used to clamp the cow's hooves of the carcass, and can effectively grab and fix the position of the front legs before the front leg shearing process, facilitating subsequent shearing operations. The bottom of the connecting frame 3 is fixed to the fork stop 4, and the top of the connecting frame 3 is connected to the traveling trolley 2.
[0018] The connecting structure is composed of a vertical rod 5 of a rigid structure and a chain 6 of a flexible structure. The vertical rod 5 is vertically arranged, and both ends of the vertical rod 5 are respectively connected to a connecting frame 3 and the chain 6, and the chain 6 is further connected to a clip 7. Such a combination can not only ensure the stability of the connection, but also provide a certain degree of flexibility to adapt to the shapes and positions of different cow hooves.
[0019] Before cutting the cow hoof, bend its elbow within a specific angle range, which can effectively improve the cutting efficiency and cutting accuracy of workers. To solve the problem that the effect of adjusting the angle constraint of the elbow by only using the connecting structure is poor, this assembly structure further includes a pressure rod 8 and a bracket 9. Both ends of the bracket 9 are respectively connected to the pressure rod 8 and the track 1. The pressure rod 8 is arranged below the track 1, and the pressure rod 8 is arranged in a dislocation manner with respect to the traveling direction of the traveling trolley 2, so that the space formed between the pressure rod 8 and the traveling direction of the traveling trolley 2 presents a constricted structure.
[0020] In an actual beef cutting production line, when it is necessary to shear the front leg of beef, the traveling trolley 2 moves along the track 1, driving the connecting frame 3 and the components connected thereto. The clip 7 at the end of the connecting structure manually clamps the cow hoof by a special person. The pressure rod 8 is arranged on the front side of the moving direction of the traveling trolley 2. Then, during the process of the carcass following the traveling trolley 2 moving, the pressure rod 8 is inserted between the body of the carcass and the front leg. Then, as the carcass continues to move following the traveling trolley 2, the pressure rod 8 gradually presses the thigh of the front leg. At the same time, the lower leg of the front leg is pulled by the connecting structure, so that the elbow between the lower leg and the thigh of the front leg is bent, which is convenient for cutting. This structure utilizes the moving force of the traveling trolley 2 to gradually increase the pressing force of the pressure rod 8 on the thigh of the front leg.
[0021] The traveling trolley 2 is a conventional structure, the track 1 is set as an I-beam, and the traveling trolley 2 includes moving wheels symmetrically arranged on both sides of the track 1 and a housing connected to the outside of the two groups of moving wheels. The connecting frame 3 is connected to the housing.
[0022] The clip 7 is also a conventional structure. For the convenience of understanding, it is now stated that the clip 7 includes a left clip body, a right clip body, a pin shaft and a torsion spring. The left and right clip bodies are connected together through the pin shaft. The left and right clip bodies can rotate around their central axes. The torsion spring is sleeved outside the pin shaft, and the two spring feet of the torsion spring respectively abut against the inner sides of the left and right clip bodies. And it keeps a certain opening angle or closed state of the left and right clip bodies with its own elastic force. The two spring feet of the torsion spring respectively abut against the inner sides of the left and right clip bodies. When the clip body is acted on by an external force, the torsion spring will resist this change until it reaches an equilibrium state.
[0023] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate rather than limit the technical solutions of the present invention. Any equivalent replacement of the present invention and any modification or partial replacement without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
