[0029] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following will further describe this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Hereinafter, terms such as "first" and "second" are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0031] In addition, in this application, orientation terms such as "upper" and "lower" are defined relative to the orientation in which the components in the drawings are schematically placed. It should be understood that these directional terms are relative concepts, which are used for relative description and clarification and can change accordingly with the change of the orientation in which the components in the drawings are placed.

[0032] The present utility model provides a device for grouting and slicing in a cake production line. As shown in the attached Figure 1 figure, the device includes a conveyor 1 and a cutter head assembly 2 and a grouting assembly 3 arranged on the conveyor 1. Among them, the conveyor 1 can be a belt conveyor 1 in the prior art. A first frame 11 and a second frame 12 are sequentially arranged on the conveyor 1 along the conveying direction. The cutter head assembly 2 is connected to the first frame 11, and the grouting assembly 3 is connected to the second frame 12, so that the cutter head assembly 2 and the grouting assembly 3 are both corresponding on the conveyor belt.

[0033] As shown in the attached Figures 2 to 4 figure, the cutter head assembly 2 includes a first sliding table 21, a rotating shaft 22, a cutting knife 23, a tool rest 24 and a movable member 25. Among them, the first sliding table 21 is connected to slide on the first frame 11. The connection method can be that a first slide rail 261 is fixed on one side of the first frame 11. The two ends of the first slide rail 261 respectively correspond to both sides in the width direction of the conveyor 1. A first slider 262 is fixed at the bottom of the first sliding table 21, and the first slider 262 is adaptively connected to slide on the first slide rail 261, thereby restricting the first sliding table 21 to slide only left and right relative to both sides in the width direction of the conveyor 1. Further, a rotatable first lead screw 263 is also arranged on the first frame 11. Bearing seats are fixed on both sides of the first frame 11. The two ends of the first lead screw 263 are respectively connected to the two bearing seats, thereby restricting the first lead screw 263 to rotate only relative to the first frame 11. A through relief hole is arranged on the side surface of the first sliding table 21, and a fixed nut sleeve 264 is embedded in the relief hole. The first lead screw spirally passes through the nut sleeve 264. When the first lead screw 263 rotates, the first sliding table 21 can be driven to move relative to the width direction of the conveyor 1. Further still, one end of the first lead screw 263 can also be fixed with a hand wheel 265. By rotating the hand wheel 265, the first lead screw 263 is driven to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the first sliding table 21, or a moving motor can be fixed on the side surface of the first frame 11, and the output shaft of the moving motor drives the first lead screw 263 to rotate to achieve the adjustment of the position of the first sliding table 21.

[0034] It is worth mentioning that when a plurality of cutter head assemblies 2 are arranged on the first frame 11, a plurality of first lead screws 263 are correspondingly arranged vertically on the first frame 11, and a plurality of clearance holes are correspondingly arranged vertically on the first slide 21, and a nut sleeve 264 is fixed in only one of the clearance holes of each first slide 21, and the nut sleeve 264 of each first slide 21 is arranged in the clearance holes at different heights. Each first lead screw 263 passes through the clearance holes of each first slide 21 at the same height, and since the nut sleeve 264 of each first slide 21 is arranged in the clearance holes at different heights, each first lead screw 263 is only spirally connected to the nut sleeve 264 of one of the first slides 21.

[0035] The top of the tool holder 24 is connected to the first slide 21 through a swing arm 27, so that when the first slide 21 moves, it can drive the tool holder 24 to slide left and right relative to both sides of the width direction of the conveyor 1. In addition, a horizontal supporting step 211 is set on the side of the upper end of the first slide 21 close to the tool holder 24, and the swing arm 27 and the end surface of the first slide 21 on the supporting step 211 are pivotally connected, so that the supporting step 211 supports the swing arm 27, so that the swing arm 27 remains horizontal, and the tool holder 24 remains vertical.

[0036] As attached Figure 2 As shown, the rotating shaft 22 is connected to the upper part of the first frame 11. Specifically, bearing seats are fixed on both sides of the first frame 11. The bearing seats can be fixed to the first frame 11 by bolting them, so as to facilitate subsequent disassembly. The two ends of the rotating shaft 22 are respectively inserted into and fixed to the two bearing seats, so that the axis of rotation of the rotating shaft 22 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor 1. Furthermore, a driving motor 27 is fixed under the crossbeam on one side of the conveyor 1. The output shaft of the driving motor 27 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 22 in a transmission connection. The transmission connection method can be attached Figure 2 The chain transmission shown can of course also be a belt transmission or a gear transmission, so that the drive motor 27 drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate. Furthermore, the utility model can also be equipped with a control system, which can be a PLC controller, for controlling the operation of the drive motor 27 and other actuators of the utility model.

[0037] As attached Figures 5 to 7 As shown, mounting portions 231 are provided on both sides of the slitting knife 23, and the knife holder 24 is a frame structure with open bottom and both ends. The bottoms of both sides of the knife holder 24 are connected to movable parts 25, and the connection structure can be as shown in the attached Figure 7As shown, one end of the movable member 25 is pivotally connected to one end of the bottom of the tool holder 24. The pivoting structure in this embodiment can be a way of inserting a pin or connecting a hinge so that the two pivoted parts can rotate relative to each other. The other end of the movable member 25 is connected to the other end of the bottom of the tool holder 24 by inserting a bolt to achieve the installation of the movable member 25, and when the bolt is screwed out of the tool holder 24, the movable member 25 can be turned downward to achieve the removal of the movable member 25, thereby achieving the detachable connection between the movable member 25 and the tool holder 24.

[0038] In addition, semicircular grooves are provided at the lower sides of the tool holder 24, and a semicircular groove is also provided at the same side of the movable part 25. When the movable part 25 is installed under the tool holder 24, the groove on the inner side of the tool holder 24 and the groove of the movable part 25 are spliced to form a mounting hole 202, so that a mounting hole 202 is formed between the movable part 25 and the bottom of the tool holder 24, and the mounting parts 231 on both sides of the slitting knife 23 are respectively embedded in the two mounting holes 202, thereby forming a structure in which the two mounting parts 231 of the slitting knife 23 are respectively connected to the two sides below the tool holder 24, so that the slitting knife 23 is restricted to be only rotatable relative to the tool holder 24. Furthermore, mounting steps 232 are formed on the annular surfaces of the mounting portions 231 on both sides of the slitting knife 23, and bearings are arranged on the outer surfaces of the two mounting steps 232 so that the mounting steps 232 are embedded in the inner rings of the bearings, and the outer rings of the two bearings are respectively mounted in the mounting holes 202 on both sides of the tool holder 24. In this structure, the use of bearings to connect the mounting portion 231 and the mounting hole 202 is beneficial to reducing the friction resistance formed by the mounting portion 231 relative to the tool holder 24 when the slitting knife 23 rotates.

[0039] The rotating shaft 22 passes through the two mounting parts 231 of the knife holder 24 and the slitting knife 23, so that when the knife holder 24 moves, the slitting knife 23 can be driven to move axially relative to the rotating shaft 22. In addition, the center of the slitting knife 23 is provided with a hexagonal hole 201 that passes through the end faces of the two mounting parts 231. The part of the rotating shaft 22 that passes through the knife holder 24 and the slitting knife 23 is a hexagonal prism, which is adapted to pass through the hexagonal hole 201 of the slitting knife 23, so that when the rotating shaft 22 rotates, the slitting knife 23 can be driven to rotate, thereby realizing the slitting of the material conveyed on the conveyor 1 into multiple strips. And as the knife holder 24 moves horizontally relative to the width direction of the conveyor 1, the slitting knife 23 moves horizontally relative to the width direction of the conveyor 1, thereby realizing the adjustment of the width of the material after slitting.

[0040] In the above structure, when the slitting knife 23 needs to be replaced, the movable part 25 is removed, the knife holder 24 is flipped up, and then the bearing seat connected to the rotating shaft 22 on one side of the driving motor 27 is removed. After that, the rotating shaft 22 can be removed from the first frame 11 to replace the slitting knife 23. This method does not require the knife holder 24 to be removed together, which is convenient for transportation during replacement.

[0041] As attached Figure 1 and 8As shown, the grouting assembly 3 includes a second slide 31, which is connected to the top of the second frame 12, and the second slide 31 moves relative to both sides of the width direction of the conveyor 1. A grouting pipe 32 is fixed below the second slide 31, and the grouting pipe 32 corresponds to the conveyor belt of the conveyor 1. In addition, a grouting device (not shown in the drawings) for storing slurry can be fixed on the top of the second frame 12, and the grouting device slurry outlet is connected to the grouting pipe 32 through a hose. This hose connection can prevent the movement of the second slide 31 from affecting the slurry from being transported to the grouting pipe 32.

[0042] The structure of the second slide 31 connected to the second frame 12 can be as shown in the attached Figure 9 and 10 As shown, the second slide rails 331 are fixed on both sides above the second frame 12, the second sliders 332 are fixed on both ends of the second slide 31, and the second sliders 332 at both ends of the second slide 31 are adapted to slide and connect with the second slide rails 331 on both sides of the second frame 12, so as to limit the second slide 31 to only slide linearly on both sides relative to the width direction of the conveyor 1. Further, a rotatable second lead screw 333 is connected above the second frame 12, and the axis of rotation of the second lead screw 333 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor 1. A nut support 334 is fixed on the second slide 31, and the second lead screw 333 and the nut support 334 are spirally connected. During operation, the second slide 31 and the grouting pipe 32 can be driven to move relative to both sides of the width direction of the conveyor 1 by controlling the rotation of the second lead screw 333. The second lead screw 333 can be controlled to rotate by fixing a movable motor 335 on the side outside the second frame 12 , wherein the output shaft of the movable motor 335 is connected to the second lead screw 333 via a coupling, so that the drive motor 27 can drive the second lead screw 333 to rotate.

[0043] It is worth mentioning that since the grouting pipe 32 needs to apply slurry on the cut material, in the conveying direction of the conveyor 1, the grouting pipe 32 needs to be arranged between two adjacent slitting knives 23 and between the slitting knives 23 and the side of the conveyor 1. The second lead screws 333 driving the second slides 31 to move can be arranged side by side above the second frame 12, and the nut supports 334 fixed on the second slides 31 are staggered.

[0044] In summary, in the structure of the present utility model, when the material is conveyed to the position of the cutting knife 23, it is cut into two halves by the cutting knife 23. Then, the slurry injection pipe 32 outputs slurry downward onto the cut material, realizing the working process of automatic slurry injection and cutting. In addition, before working, by driving the tool holder 24 to move along the width direction of the conveyor 1 on the first frame 11, the position of the cutting knife 23 in the width direction of the conveyor 1 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the width of the cut material. At the same time, adjusting the position of the slurry injection pipe 32 on the second frame 12 can adjust the slurry injection position according to the position of the cut material, so that the slurry injection position corresponds to the cut material. Thus, it can be seen that the present utility model can adjust the position of the cutting knife 23 according to production needs to obtain materials of different widths, which is beneficial to meeting the production requirements of cakes of different sizes.

[0045] The above is only the specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the design concept of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any non-substantive modification made to the present utility model using this concept shall fall within the scope of infringement of the protection scope of the present utility model.
