Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of rice cake cutting devices, in particular to a cutting device for rice cake production which can automatically collect rice cakes. Background Art

[0002] Rice cake cutting is an important step in the rice cake making process. It not only shapes the rice cake into shapes that are easy to eat and preserve, such as slices and strips, ensuring the standardization and aesthetics of the rice cake, but also makes the cut rice cake easier to cook, match and carry, providing convenience for the diverse needs of consumers.

[0003] However, traditional rice cake cutting methods mostly rely on manual labor. This process is not only inefficient and time-consuming, but more importantly, it is difficult to accurately control the cutting size, resulting in different sizes of rice cake products. What is particularly troublesome is that freshly baked rice cakes are extremely sticky due to their high temperature, and they are very easy to stick to the knife when cutting, further increasing the complexity and inconvenience of the operation.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned situation that the size of rice cakes cannot be controlled by manual cutting and rice cakes are easy to stick to the cutter when cutting, a cutting device for rice cake production that can automatically collect rice cakes can be designed. Through the threaded transmission structure and the spray structure, the position of the cutting tool can be flexibly adjusted while preventing the rice cakes from sticking to the tool. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the problems that the size of rice cakes cannot be controlled when rice cakes are cut manually and the rice cakes are easily adhered to the cutter when cutting the rice cakes.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is: a cutting device for the production of rice cakes that can automatically collect, comprising a conveyor, supporting legs, a bracket, a collection box, a water hole, a water collecting box, a column, a horizontal plate, a fan and a fan cover; the lower end of the conveyor is fixedly connected to four supporting legs for support, the rear end of the conveyor is fixedly connected to the bracket, the belt built into the conveyor is provided with water holes at equal intervals, the water collecting box is placed on the ground and is located at the lower end of the conveyor, a collection box for collecting rice cakes is placed on the right side of the conveyor, a column is installed on the ground on the right side of the collection box, the upper end of the column is fixedly connected to a horizontal plate, the horizontal plate is provided with a through slot adapted to the fan, a fan with a built-in power supply is installed in the through slot, and fan covers are installed on the upper and lower ends of the fan by fastening bolts.

[0007] Preferably, the conveyor is responsible for transporting the prepared rice cake strips, the support legs provide stable support for the conveyor to ensure that it does not shake or tilt during operation, the bracket provides an installation base for components such as hydraulic cylinders, and the collection box is used to collect the cut rice cake pieces for subsequent packaging or further processing. It is made of stainless steel to ensure the safety of contact with the rice cakes. The water holes allow clean water to pass through and flow into the water collection box. The water collection box collects water discharged from the water holes to keep the production environment clean. The columns, horizontal plates, fans and fan covers together constitute the cooling structure after the rice cakes are cut. The columns support the horizontal plates, and the fans on the horizontal plates guide the airflow through the fan cover to quickly cool the cut rice cakes, thereby preventing the rice cakes from sticking together after collection.

[0008] Preferably, a hydraulic cylinder is installed at the lower end of the bracket, and the lower end of the power output element of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a beam. A groove is provided at the lower end of the beam.

Relative movement is achieved by rotating the two-way threaded rod to adjust the spacing of the cutting tools. At the same time, the cutting tool cuts the rice cake to the required size.

[0012] Preferably, the water pump and the clean water tank are both placed on the ground and the clean water tank is located on the right side of the water pump. The water inlet port of the water pump is connected to the water outlet of the clean water tank by a hose. The water pump is the power source of the entire spray structure, responsible for pumping out the water in the clean water tank and pressurizing it into the spray pipe. The clean water tank is a container for storing water, providing a stable water source for the water pump. The hose is used for flexible connection between the water pump and the clean water tank, and between the water pump and the spray pipe. It allows a certain displacement space between the two components to avoid damage that may be caused by hard connection.

[0013] Preferably, two support plates are symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper end of the conveyor, and a clamp is installed on the end of the two support plates facing the rice cake. The spray pipe passes through the clamp and is connected to the support plate through the clamp. An atomizing nozzle is installed on the outer wall of the spray pipe facing the rice cake, and the water outlet port of the water pump is connected to the water inlet of the spray pipe through a hose.
